Chapter 023: Fire
"Lana?"
Rorschach was a little helpless, and the one who occupied his place in front of him was the cheerleader who his brother had a crush on for a long time.
"Oh! Rorschach! What did you do? ”
Lana greeted Rorschach cheerfully.
“…… Stomach aches. ”
Rorschach immediately looked at Clark with empty eyes, and he didn't know which one Lana was singing.
But after all, they were all back, and even if Rorschach was empty-handed, he sat down next to Chloe, waiting for their conversation to end.
"So...... How can the cheerleader still be in the mood to have lunch with us ordinary people? ”
Rorschach's first words after sitting down cooled the atmosphere of the whole table a little.
He hadn't forgotten that the last time Lana came here was to spy on Clarke's campaign captain.
Is it his turn this time?
"Actually...... I've quit cheerleading. ”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lana's bright face, and she said softly.
"What?" The other three people at the table said in unison.
"You're quitting?" Clark was the most out of his temper, and the sandwich in his hand almost slapped Rorschach in the face.
"Hmm...... Also, I broke up with Whitney. ”
Lana sighed lightly and threw out another bombshell news.
"How so!" Chloe felt an invisible pressure.
Rorschach shrugged helplessly, it seemed that the lunch time was going to be extended again.
"Hmm...... We had a fight yesterday and I thought about it, it's a waste of time to cheer for a team of people like that. ”
Lana smiled brightly, not at all like she was saying something sad-sounding.
The smile was contagious, and at least Clark and Pete had the same expressions that Rorschach didn't look at again.
"You're doing the right thing."
Still, Rorschach was sure of Lana's idea.
Instead of being someone's cheering prop, it's better to spend some time on your homework and get into a better university.
But looking at Clark's face, which was obviously already thinking about the child's name, Rorschach also knew that this was undoubtedly a signal to him.
Even if you don't run for the captain of the rugby team on campus, you still have the opportunity to be with the goddess, how can it be unhappy.
In the next chat, Rorschach didn't talk again.
There are three more powers in his body that are completely different from before, and Rorschach still needs to master them well.
Because of Lana, a few people who didn't get much attention were watched frequently for this lunch.
After eating, Clark seemed to be exercising desperately, and his face was flushed.
He even sweated a few drops.
But in Mr. White's chemistry class today, Whitney was really much more honest.
Looking at his dejected appearance, he also knew that the successive setbacks made him a little unable to raise his head.
It was such a setback, and it felt like a ruined life.
It's so easy to break the defense, and you still expect to be a star in your future career?
I'm afraid that when he arrives on a real big stage, just the audience's gaze is enough to crush him.
Rorschach's gaze lingered only briefly on Whitney's body.
If it weren't for the growth efficiency of the yellow energy in his body, Rorschach really wouldn't have had time to take a look at him.
The reason for this is that at the beginning of this class, the soul that was silent in Rorschach's body began to be restless.
He's screaming something, he's craving something.
Therefore, he is trying to take control of Rorschach's body!
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that at this time it would have covered the consciousness and the whole body would be on fire.
But Rorschach, of course, didn't lose control of his body so easily.
In terms of willpower, Rorschach is very interested in playing "tug-of-war" with this evil spirit.
But this anomaly is not right, and when the contract is first signed, the soul that inhabits his mind is still honest.
When he borrowed his power, he was not so willing, but the other party also lent him a part.
Now his restlessness is nothing more than a contract.
Rorschach frowned slightly, that is, there are "sinners" in the school that the evil spirits crave?
Thinking of this, Rorschach got up directly, opened the classroom door and walked outside.
His movements were fast and fluid, and he closed the door before Mr. White could react.
"Uh...... We go on to say that in the solution ......"
Teacher White was also stunned, he just lowered his head, and the best student in the class went out like this silently.
However, Rorschach was relatively quiet on weekdays, and coupled with his excellent grades, Mr. White decided not to pursue the matter.
From the taciturn Rorschach, he saw a trace of himself back then.
If you choose to continue to open a company with your friends......
He shook his head and put aside distracting thoughts, teaching and educating people now, although it is not a big career, but a stable life is also rare.
Rorschach walked down the hallway with a blank face, and since he left the classroom, the soul in his mind was much more stable.
That is, the soul does set a goal, and does not oppose itself for no reason.
The first thing that can be ruled out is Mr. White and his classmates, if it were them, the moment Rorschach walked out of the classroom, the pressure would have increased dramatically.
Turning a corner, Rorschach saw Coach Watt, who was already in good shape, carrying a tank of gasoline and quietly approaching a gate.
"I remember that place...... What seems to be the vice-principal's office? ”
Rorschach didn't deliberately write down the structure of the school, but he was only impressed because Vice Principal Guan seemed to be particularly attentive to himself.
The look on Coach Watt's face at the moment was anything but friendly, and he stopped at the door of his office, as if he was preparing for something.
"Is that him?" Rorschach wasn't surprised.
Coach Watt has been able to stay in the coaching position for so long, not because of how good he is.
It's because of the tight budget at Smolvey Town High School and the fact that Coach Watt has a distant relative on the school board.
On weekdays, he sneered at students who weren't on the rugby team, and connived at all sorts of outrageous pranks on his players.
Looking at the other party's movements, Rorschach almost understood.
Vice President Guan has always been unaccustomed to the style of the school football team, and Watt, as the coach and team leader, must of course be held accountable first.
And Watt, who got the news, is determined to create an "accident" to keep his position.
I saw him take out the lighter from his pocket, and unscrew the lid with his other hand.
Just as Watt was pricking up his ears, paying attention to the movement in the office, and tilting the oil drum, there was a cracking sound from above.
"What?" He looked up, almost instinctively, and the red filament fell on his face.
"Ahh He immediately let out a pig howl.
The body that lost its balance fell heavily to the ground, the fuel tank that had been released completely collapsed, and the gasoline was quickly laid on the ground.
Then a second reddish filament fell.
"What's going on?"
Vice Principal Guan was just about to get up when he saw a fire outside.
