Volume I: Chapter 112 Gallons
The girl shook her hair, having not had time to tie it up since the way back from the forest, and the emanation of her shawl was a bit of a hindrance to the climbing-jumping movement, and then looked at Sandino, who had not yet entered.
"What's wrong? Aren't you coming in? ”
"No...... Only, shouldn't the lock on the window be indoors? How did you open it? Sandino was puzzled, but he walked over step by step.
Anya smiled.
"Every building in this school has my secret passage, it's a secret you know and I know, don't tell anyone else." Anya said as she reached out the window and pulled Sandino in.
The corridors of the auditorium were unlit and extremely quiet, illuminating the entire corridor with the reflection of the moonlight from the windows on the marble floor.
The slowed footsteps of the two men were soft and rhythmic, and the shadows of the boy and girl intertwined in the darkness, like two small birds flying in the night sky.
Sandino looked around nervously, although he had violated school discipline with Cesare before, but it was nothing more than a matter of admitting mistakes and apologizing, and it was the first time he had infiltrated the school building at night.
There is a cool breeze blowing in the corridor, so it shouldn't be haunted at night!
Sandino remembered the terrifying rumors he had usually heard, what had students jumping off the building in St. Carl before, and what ghosts were floating at night, with the dim and dark scene at this time, Sandino swallowed his saliva and became more and more afraid the more he thought about it.
"That...... Now where are we going? Sandino asked weakly.
"The Principal's Office." Anya replied briskly as she turned around. "I know a shortcut, and it'll be there soon."
"Huh? Where? Sandino couldn't believe his ears for a while, thinking that he had definitely misheard, and that the students hardly saw the principal in the school on weekdays.
Judging from the information that the teachers inadvertently revealed on weekdays, it is said that the principal is an extremely stingy miser, the kind that will hold a grudge for the rest of his life if he offends a little, let alone trespass into his office.
"I'm sorry, I may have misheard...... Did you mention that, the Principal's Office? ”
"Uh-huh." Anya confirmed nonchalantly. "The headmaster must have received instructions and documents from the higher levels when it was discovered that such a large-scale turmoil had occurred, and if you want to find out what happened, only that place is most likely to hide the truth."
Anya glanced back at Sandino and saw that his pale face was no longer just nervous, so she gently patted him on the shoulder as if comforting, signaling that he should not be too afraid.
"It's okay, because this shortcut also leads to the school's finance office, so no one is allowed to pass by without permission after 8 o'clock in the evening, and violators, whether it is an employee or a student, may be expelled, and we basically won't be discovered."
Anya smiled and bent her fingers into a small circle, making a gesture that represented a small possibility.
But this sentence does not play a very comforting role.
"Doesn't that mean it's more dangerous!" Sandino not only shouted in a low voice, but immediately realized that his voice was a little out of control, and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.
Anya responded with a mischievous smile, then turned around like a dancer and continued to walk deeper into the hallway. There was no special instruction for Sandino to follow, which seemed to give Sandino a chance to make a final decision, and it was still too late to quit at this time.
Sandino hesitated tangledly, thinking that he had followed all the way here, and the bragging words had already been released, how could he admit it in front of the girl. He took a deep breath to cheer himself up, his eyes became firm, and he walked a few quick steps to keep up with Anya.
Walked through the hallway and up a few flights of stairs.
As Anya said, no matter how much noise the predecessor of the auditorium was, there was no one on this route, and the passages to the rest of the auditorium were locked by iron doors to prevent anyone from entering.
Anya walked very fast, dexterously walking the stairs without making any sound, she was like a nocturnal cat.
Sandino wanted to keep up with Anya's speed, his legs were really tired, not only to keep up with the pace but also to ensure that the pace was light enough, if it weren't for Anya's every corner to stop and wait for him to keep up, several times almost missed.
Seeing that one floor further up to the principal's office is about to arrive, I don't know if the principal will still stay in his office after such a serious disturbance outside.
Thinking wildly, Sandino followed Anya as she climbed the last flight of stairs, and as she passed around the corner, Anya's body suddenly froze in place and stopped moving forward.
Sandino followed the girl's gaze and looked ahead, and there seemed to be a figure in the dark hallway.
Sandino was startled and thought he had actually seen a ghost.
But when I looked closely, I found that the figure was as tall and wide as the two of them, and it was looking at the two of them in equal surprise, as if the situation at this time was an unplanned change for both parties.
Squinting his eyes, Sandino felt more and more that the student looked familiar, with a short stature, sunken eyes, a bird's beak-like nose, and an annoying feeling from a distance.
Isn't that the notorious nasty guy at school - Gallons! The number one bastard who has been in cahoots with senior Boris on weekdays and has been making things difficult for Sandino and Cesare at school.
Stealing Sandino's dance partner at the prom, and designing to make Cesare make a fool of himself are all the work of this kid!
At the moment when she saw Gallen blocking the way, Anya's optimistic smile disappeared, and the girl's expression became gloomy, obviously disliked Gallen's appearance......
Why is the Gallon here? Sandino couldn't think clearly.
And Gallon, who was standing opposite, slowly leaned his neck to recognize the faces of Anya and Sandino, and he smiled weirdly, as if he had found a good pastime toy.
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Cesare's little henchman, and this dear young lady......" Gallen's gaze gradually shifted, and the disgusting gaze slowly scanned over Anya's body from her feet to the top of her head.
"Isn't this the little wife who is engaged to marry my eldest brother."
Gallen smiled maliciously, as the sixth son of the Orsini family, of course he knew how old his eldest brother was this year, but the authority of the family was there, and it was a matter of course to marry a young and beautiful wife after being widowed.
The sudden arrival of information caught Sandino a little off guard, and his gaze switched back and forth between Gallen and Anya, not knowing what was going on right now.
Whether this marriage is willing for Anya or not, there is no way for a small Earl Laurion to refuse the marriage contract initiated by the three families.
Anya, who was poked in the sore spot, wanted to stay strong, but only she knew the fragile side of her heart, which was the fate she always wanted to escape but could never escape, and the only topic that the always optimistic and cheerful girl would never want to mention......
The corners of Anya's mouth twitched a few times and then drooped slightly, but the girl who was still alive just now was like a slowly withering flower, haggard raised her right arm and hugged herself, looking helpless to protect herself.
And the nasty Gallen became even more proud when he saw Anya's sad appearance, anyway, he didn't like Anya who did bad things to him, and he didn't like his own brother who would take away his title.
"At that time, you ruined my good deeds at the prom, I didn't recognize it in a hurry, it turned out that it would be a family in a few days, what a offense, you said yes? The beautiful and touching Lady Orsini? ”
