Juanan City, located at the eastern foot of the middle section of the Qintai Mountains, is named after the continuous Shan Mountains within the boundary.

Located in the downtown area, Juanan No. 2 Middle School was founded in the 40s of the last century, and is the oldest school in Juanan City and one of the key schools in the province.

In the first class of senior high school, the seats are arranged in a single table, and the clock on the wall is just pointing to the number ten. At six fifty, there was no one in the classroom, Jiang Wan walked into the classroom and walked straight to the window at the back of the classroom.

The books on the table were stacked neatly on the side, and she gently pulled out her chair and took off her bag and sat down.

She put her bag on her lap and unzipped it, and the books inside were meticulously arranged in order of size.

She pulled out a hardcover sketchbook with an off-white cover from her bag and placed it on the table, then stuffed it into the bucket.

The sketchbook was spread out and occupied the rest of the tabletop, and Jiang Wan leaned back on the chair, supporting her head with one hand to open a new page.

The classroom was quiet, and only the students on duty who came early came with brooms to clean up.

Jiang Wan enjoys painting in this quiet environment.

She pulled out a black charcoal pen from her pencil case, pinched it by her white jade fingers, and walked back and forth on the paper.

The smooth lines fall on the paper one by one, roughly taking shape.

A few brushstrokes outline an antique water pavilion.

A simple line drawing, the willow flutters, the branches and leaves caress the pavilion, hanging into the water. The clear waves rippled and rippled.

The charcoal continued to draw, slowing down.

At 10:00 a.m., people came to the class one after another.

Loud voices.

"Did you hear that someone in the third shift died last night, and it was a vampire who did it."

A few of the boys chattered as soon as they came in.

"I heard that, I passed through that alley in the morning, and it was full of police ......"

Three or five people who love gossip gathered together and discussed it passionately.

In recent years, public order in Jiangnan has always been stable, and this incident caused an uproar in an instant. The news was the first hot search, and the public was in an uproar.

Vampires and humans signed a peace agreement a hundred years ago, and the two races live in harmony without interfering with each other. Now there is a wounding incident, and if it is really the vampire's doing, it will even cause a war between the two clans again.

"Doesn't it mean that the government has studied a plan to limit the abilities of vampires? How can you still let harmful things go unpunished......"

The skinny man with glasses asked, leaning on the frame.

The little fat man in the class glanced at him and laughed at him for being too naïve: "Just listen to that kind of thing, who can stop it if you really want to suck people's blood?" ”

There are many opinions, and the spirit is tempered, and every sentence spurns all evil vampires.

A group of young people who have never been in the world are like green forest heroes who punish evil and promote good, full of upright and righteous. Or they spitting at the foam, like village women and rough men in the market.

The words are becoming more and more vicious, and the momentum is like that of a hot-blooded soldier killing the battlefield.

The little fat man slapped the table with a slap, "Hmph, if you want me to say, you shouldn't let the vampire live!" ”

Someone responded: "Yes! It's not a pity to die for the disgusting crumbs! ”

Hearing this, Jiang Wan's pen suddenly stopped, she was suddenly a little excited, and her heart was pounding.

She bit her lip and tried to breathe to calm herself.

The force of the pen increased, but she still scratched on the paper as if she didn't realize it.

"Smack-"

The subtle sound dragged back Jiang Wan's thoughts.

She looked intently, and the black tip of the pen was broken in two, one lying on the paper, like a mutilated samurai.

Shoddy lines rampage, crisscrossing the courtyard scene. A good painting was blackened and innocently destroyed.

Jiang Wan looked at the drawing paper in a daze, and the charcoal was still in her hand.

If you look closely, it is not difficult to find that her breath is slightly rapid, and even her fingertips are a little trembling.

Jiang Wan felt a little aggrieved.

Just hearsay, just telling right and wrong like this, the red mouth and poisonous tongue sound really harsh.

Others don't know that the great war between the people and the blood clan in a hundred years has caused countless casualties and almost extinction of the blood clan, and the blood clan is forced to surrender under pressure.

After the peace agreement was signed, the remnants of the blood clan returned to the mountains and forests, and their Jiang family was one of the few blood clans.

In fact, for a long time in the past, the place where the blood clan lived was isolated from the world, desolate and poor, and the harsh environment almost killed them.

But the Terrans still have a great prejudice against the Bloods, just because they suck blood, because it threatens them.

Her father told her that there is no right or wrong in this game, that everyone has only one life, and that it is not wrong to spare one's life.

But isn't it right to use harm others as a means to save your own life?

Jiang Wan took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, trying to stabilize her emotions.

There were many people in the class, and almost all of them participated in the topic of crusading against the blood clan, and the noisy sound made Jiang Wan feel a little dizzy.

She spread out her hands, put the pen on the table, closed her eyes, took a few quick breaths, opened her eyes, lifted the drawing paper, and began to tear down the middle seam of the notebook.

She pursed her lips and stared at her, trying to get her full attention.

Try to ignore, try not to listen to the irritating words.

The paper was torn off intact, and the edges seemed to have been cut with a knife, neatly and neatly, without even raw edges.

She folded the paper in half, the top pressed against the bottom, and pressed it tightly.

The movements are slow and out of step with the hustle and bustle around her, and she is venting her emotions in this way.

The arm suddenly tingled, and Jiang Wan subconsciously raised his arm.

"Oh my God, are you okay Jiang Wan?!"

A shrill female voice breaks the noise in the class

The group of warriors who were fighting on the battlefield died down for a while, and looked over with a probe - Jiang Wan's school uniform was wet.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, they just bumped into me." Zhang Wencai put the steaming thermos cup on Jiang Wan's table nearby, and almost all the boiling water that had just been brought back was splashed on Jiang Wan's body.

She hurriedly wiped the water with a tissue, and turned her head to reprimand the culprit next to her, the little fat man: "Liu Dasheng, can't you look at people?" Who made you squeeze here! ”

She turned her head again to care about Jiang Wan's injury, "It's not hot, is it?" It doesn't hurt! ”

The white short-sleeved shirt was damp and there were water stains on the pants.

Zhang Wencai's eagerness was undisguised, her brows were clustered, and her emotions were all written on her face.

The little fat man knew that he had caused trouble, and he was also a little guilty, so he said sorry to Jiang Wan repeatedly.

Jiang Wan put on a faint smile and said softly, "I'm fine." even comforted Zhang Wencai: "Don't worry."

She was beautiful, her skin was white, like a freshly cooked egg, her arms were red, and she said softly that it was okay.

Such a weak image makes people feel even more distressed.

Zhang Wencai said guiltily: "Why is it okay? It's all red, I'll take you to the infirmary!

"The infirmary doesn't work until eight o'clock, so there's no one for sure." Someone next to him said.

"What then?"

There were a lot of classmates around, and it was not comfortable to be watched, and Jiang Wan was inexplicably a little anxious.

She silently covered her arms, trying to hide the redness and swelling.

"It's okay, it's not that serious." She said, her voice softly sounding calm, "I'll just go and rinse it with water."

From the beginning to the end, Jiang Wan didn't have any emotions when she spoke, and seemed to tell everyone that this was really just a trivial matter, and she didn't care.

"Are you really okay?" Zhang Wencai is really worried, her arms are red and she doesn't look like she's fine.

She usually has little intersection with Jiang Wan, but now she feels that this girl is too easy to talk to.

"It's okay, really." Jiang Wan stood up as she spoke, put her arms behind her back and walked out.

The crowd automatically made a way for her.

Zhang Wencai is a real person, she really doesn't feel at ease, she insists on accompanying Jiang Wan to the water room, Jiang Wan can't shirk it, so she has to follow her.

The bell has been ringing, and it is time to read it early.

The water room is at the end of the corridor, and their class is one in the east and the other in the west, a little far away.

Zhang Wencai held Jiang Wan's arm and walked to the water room. Someone came up to them, it was the Chinese teacher and head teacher of their class, Liu Xianghua.

A chubby menopausal middle-aged woman with a not very good temper, and most of the students in the class were afraid of her.

Seeing her, Zhang Wencai's heart was sudden, and she subconsciously buried her head in the old low, and even dragged Jiang Wan's arm to the side, trying to avoid Liu Xianghua's sight.

Understanding her careful thoughts, Jiang Wan was amused, and she suddenly had bad thoughts and wanted to tease this female classmate.

If it succeeds, it may be possible to get rid of Zhang Wencai's kind company.

Seeing Liu Xianghua approaching, she suddenly stopped her steps and bowed slightly to Liu Xianghua: "Hello teacher."

Zhang Wencai didn't expect Jiang Wan to come out like this, and she was startled, but fortunately, she also reacted, and she raised her head and called out to the teacher.

Liu Xianghua successfully noticed them, looked at them, made a straight face, and said in response.

She looked at the two of them, not angry.

She asked Jiang Wan, "It's almost class, where are you going?"

It was Zhang Wencai who replied, and with the rare morality in her heart, she mustered up the courage to answer, "Jiang Wan was accidentally burned by me just now, and I accompanied her to the water room." ”

Liu Xianghua saw Jiang Wan's arm that was holding, she was not so gentle, and glanced at Jiang Wan coldly, "Two people to go to the water room?" ”

The meaning revealed in his eyes was obviously dissatisfied with Jiang Wan's squeamishness.

Seeing that Liu Xianghua wanted to lead the war to Jiang Wan, Zhang Wencai hurriedly explained.

"It's ...... me"

Jiang Wan interrupted her: "She didn't want to go, I asked her to accompany me." ”

Liu Xianghua snorted coldly, and her eyes seemed to say that it was true, "How tight is the third year of high school, don't think that you can waste other people's time if you study well." ”

Jiang Wan studied well, there is no doubt about it, and if she can't find any shortcomings, she will start with something else.

She stared at Zhang Wencai, "Let her go by herself, you go back to work!" ”

Zhang Wencai wanted to say something more, but when she met Liu Xianghua's cannibalistic eyes, she lowered her head again.

If it weren't for the sense of justice in her heart, Zhang Wencai would have stopped eating a long time ago, but she still felt sorry for Jiang Wan, she turned her head to look at Jiang Wan in embarrassment, and she was sorry in her eyes.

Jiang Wan gently patted Zhang Wencai's arm to reassure her.

"Hurry back to work!" Liu Xianghua left the last notice and walked to the class mercilessly.

Zhang Wencai had no choice but to follow, and from time to time she turned her head to look at Jiang Wan and said sorry silently.

Jiang Wan understood her mouth shape, smiled lightly, and also replied with her mouth shape, "It's okay." ”

Jiang Wan simply flushed her arm in the water room, turned off the faucet, and the water beads climbed on her arm.

My arm was still very red, but it didn't hurt much.

Jiang Wan didn't care about this kind of small injury, according to the blood clan's special self-healing ability, it would take about ten minutes to recover as before.

Therefore, she didn't dare to delay for too long, boiling water scalded, for an ordinary person, if it is not treated in time, even if it does not peel, it will blister.

If you recover after a while, it is inevitable that some people will be suspicious when you go back.

She pulled a tissue from her pocket and wiped the water from her arm.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the class, the class bell rang.

Jiang Wan stood honestly at the door, and waited for the bell to fall before shouting "report".

Liu Xianghua was patrolling the classroom, and when she heard the voice, she didn't give her a straight look, and said casually, "Come in." And he paid no more attention.

Zhang Wencai sat behind Jiang Wan's seat, and when she saw her come in, there seemed to be light in her eyes. She watched Jiang Wan come over, and intimately stretched out her arm from behind to help her pull the chair out.

She lowered her voice and asked, "Are you better?" ”

Jiang Wan sat down and tilted her head slightly and replied, "Well, it's okay." ”

She pulled out the coat from her bag and put it on, her long sleeves covering her burned arm.

Liu Xianghua knocked on the table on the podium, it was time for class.

Seeing Jiang Wan's injury, Zhang Wencai couldn't bear to worry, so she had to take out a book to listen to the class, and no one dared to skip Liu Xianghua's class.

After class, the little fat man Liu Dasheng came over with a bag of snacks and piled them all on Jiang Wan's table, Jiang Wan was a little confused, looking at Liu Dasheng.

Liu Dasheng scratched the back of his head and said, "Don't think about it, I'm sorry in the morning." He pointed to the snacks on the table, "I see that you girls like to eat some, so even if I apologize to you, okay?" ”

There are boys vibes next to it, and there are whistlers.

"I can't see it, it's a big victory, it's okay!"

"Brother Sheng!"

Liu Dasheng glared at the person who was coaxing, "Shut up, what do you think!" ”

Zhang Wencai, who was in the back seat, helped Jiang Wan to relieve the siege, "You all shut up and don't talk nonsense." ”

She stood up and stood next to Jiang Wan, "Go, go, stay there!" ”

She pushed Liu Dasheng and drove away the people who were making a fuss.

She turned around and asked Jiang Wan, "Is it really okay?" Does it hurt? Let me see. Looking at the long-sleeved jacket that Jiang Wan was wearing, Zhang Wencai mistakenly thought that the burns were very serious, but she didn't want others to know.

"You don't have to worry, I'll bear the medical expenses!" It's impossible to be fine, when Zhang Wencai received the water in the morning, she deliberately received the freshly boiled hot water, and a little common sense knows that it won't be okay if it is scalded.

Of course, Jiang Wan wouldn't show her, but insisted on saying that it was okay.

Although Zhang Wencai was still a little worried, she had no choice but to give up and stopped asking.

"Okay, then you have to tell me something."

"Okay." Jiang Wan said.

After getting a reply, Zhang Wencai turned around and was about to return to her seat, when she suddenly felt that her clothes were being ripped off.

She looked over the corner of her dress.

Jiang Wan pointed to a large pile of snacks on the table with an innocent face, and looked at Zhang Wencai with a smile as if asking for help.

Zhang Wencai understood in seconds, and smiled.

She quietly glanced around the teacher and did not find Liu Dasheng. So he quickly picked up the snack bag and stuffed it into his table.

After school at noon, Jiang Wan had just put away the books used in class and put them on the pile of books on the side, and Zhang Wencai called her.

"Jiang Wan, are you going to eat together?"

Although she has been a classmate for three years, Jiang Wan has a cool and indifferent temperament, rarely speaks or interacts with people in the class, and belongs to the existence of iceberg beauties.

It can only be viewed from afar, and it is not "defiled".

Zhang Wencai actually wanted to get to know Jiang Wan before, but there has been no suitable opportunity, this time taking advantage of the big accident, maybe you can make a friend.

Jiang Wan looked at Zhang Wencai's sincerity, couldn't bear to refuse, nodded and agreed.

Zhang Wencai became happy, hugged Jiang Wan's arm and gushed: "Go, I invite you today!" Let me tell you, there is a new barbecue bibimbap in front of the school, and it is really delicious. ”

Jiang Wan had never been approached so intimately, she was a little uncomfortable for a while, she was a little helpless, she could even feel that the hairs under the long sleeves stood up.

Seeing Zhang Wencai's excited appearance, she didn't say anything, and smiled from time to time to respond.

The lunch break is only one and a half hours, and most of the students choose to eat at school.

It's the rush hour after school, and the small restaurant is so crowded that there's hardly room to put your feet on.

Looking at the crowd of people, Jiang Wan inadvertently lowered her brows.

Zhang Wencai saw this detail, and she asked, "Don't you like so many people?" ”

Jiang Wan had a decent smile on her face again, "It's okay." ”

"Okay, whatever you want to eat, I'll buy it, you just wait outside."

Jiang Wan wanted to say that it was okay, but Zhang Wencai could see her thoughts.

"Eh, it's okay, I have to take you out to eat anyway, there are so many people, let's just buy it and eat it!"

Zhang Wencai grinned widely, and she asked again: "What do you want to eat, I'll buy it." ”

Jiang Wan smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you, I can do it." ”

"Okay, then I'll buy the one recommended by his family, it's really delicious!"

"Hmm."

Zhang Wencai resolutely rushed into the crowd, and Jiang Wan could even hear the shouts of the store one after another outside.

"Boss, chicken steak bibimbap!"

"Two servings of bibimbap!"

“……”

At noon in September, the sun is hanging in the sky, and although it is not as hot as in midsummer, it is still torturous to bask in the sun.

And this kind of sunshine is also a kind of torment for the blood clan.

Although after a hundred years of evolution, the Bloods have been able to walk in the daytime, prolonged exposure to the sun will also have a certain effect on their bodies.

Jiang Wan looked up at the sky, her hands covered her eyes, the dazzling sunlight shone on her face through her fingers, and the subtle pain irritated her skin.

Fortunately, the plane trees planted on the side of the road are flourishing.

Jiang Wan walked to the shade of the tree, and instantly felt much better.
