Chapter 1: Pepper Star Suspected of Being a Vampire 1
In the Milky Way composed of billions of stars, a silvery-white elliptical spaceship passed by quickly at a speed of 170,000 light-years per second. Two figures were vaguely reflected on the thin yet extremely strong cockpit glass.
"Honey, will you go on an interstellar journey with me?"
A charming voice sounded from behind the fiery red roses blocking my view. Behind the blooming flowers, I could vaguely see a young man in a silver double-breasted trench coat kneeling on one knee.
"Of course I do!"
My childhood wish is about to come true, and I can hardly control the excitement surging in my heart.
Star Trek, the legendary Star Trek, and with such a handsome guy, it’s such a blessing!
Bai Jie Ni, you are so lucky, hahaha!
At this moment, I wanted to laugh out loud three times, but my remaining rationality still made me try to adjust my facial nerves and maintain a shy expression. Then I reached out with trembling hands to catch the big bouquet of roses, but my eyes couldn't help but secretly look at this handsome alien guy who was about to travel through interstellar space with me.
He has a slender figure, a sweet voice, and a stunningly handsome face, right?
I moved the bouquet of roses away with great longing, and looked at the handsome alien with expectation——
The cold color, the smooth skin, the perfect face shape that seemed to have been precisely measured, everything was so attractive, except——
No facial features!
The face in front of me looked like it had been run over by a car. The places where the eyes, nose, and mouth should have been were all replaced by seamless planes. There were no deep eyes, high nose bridge, or rosy lips. It was even smoother than a tablet screen!
"Ahhh! How could this happen? How could this happen?"
I rushed over frantically, grabbed the handsome guy's collar with one hand and shook him hard, trying to prove that this was just my illusion.
But it was all in vain.
The next moment, this handsome guy with a tablet face suddenly laughed evilly, and a crack suddenly appeared on his face without any facial features. The crack opened and closed under my horrified gaze: "Dear, I have given you my favorite pepper, can you give me your heart?"
With a "click", this sentence was like a spell, and I watched the rose in my arms change its appearance in the blink of an eye. Although it was still bright red, its thin, long and pointed shape was clearly a bunch of red peppers - the red peppers I hate the most!
I was so shocked that my eyes went dark.
With a violent shaking, the entire spacecraft began to disintegrate, and everything around me dissipated like smoke. I lost my support and fell directly out of the cabin. Countless beautiful stars turned into huge meteorites, crackling down on me.
Ahhh! Where is the interstellar travel, the handsome aliens, and the flowers that I promised to confess my love for you? I don’t want to die in outer space!
"boom--"
The dull crashing sound finally ended all the terror, and when I opened my eyes, the disintegrated spaceship was gone, the handsome guy who looked like was gone, and the string of red peppers was gone. There was only the ceiling covered with photos of planets, and the alarm clock on the bedside was making a deafening sound.
"It turned out to be just a dream!"
I let out a long breath, unable to tell whether I was feeling happy or disappointed. After three seconds of being in a daze, I finally crawled out of the quilt using my hands and feet, stopped the alarm clock, and fell on the pillow with a plop.
Woohoo, people say that whatever you think about during the day, you will dream about at night. Could it be that I wanted to explore aliens so much that I had such a dream?
But what about that tablet-like face? And what about that bunch of bright red peppers?
It's too confusing.
I lay weakly on the bed, not wanting to get up at all.
Although I am an alien research enthusiast, no one knows my interest in aliens except myself, including my parents. But you can't play tricks on me like this, right?
In the eyes of my parents, I have always been a good child who could not be more well-behaved. No matter they are on a business trip for half a year or a year, I can take care of myself, so they can leave me alone at home to stare at pictures of space without any worries.
Are there aliens in the boundless universe? Will they come to Earth? Are they willing to be friends with ordinary people on Earth?
Kaka... When I saw the aliens, I became a "hundred thousand questions", which was inconsistent with my image in school. You know, on the surface, I was a good student with excellent character and academic performance. I studied at the best school in Beihua City - Asakusa Gakuin, and I was also the winner of the annual scholarship!
Huh? Something doesn't seem right!
I slapped my head heavily. I almost forgot that before the summer vacation, I had graduated from Asakusa College and became a member of the star school in Beika City - Eli Academy!
But speaking of Ailey College, am I forgetting something?
I hurriedly picked up the phone on the bedside table and opened it to see - September 12th - the new student registration day for Ailey College.
I was really hurt by my own late realization.
I was just about to throw my phone away and put on my clothes, but before I let go of the phone, an unread message with flapping little wings suddenly caught my eye.
So, while I continued to put on my clothes, I freed my hand and lightly tapped the text message with a "ding" sound, then glanced at it -
"A vampire appeared in the woods east of the academy at night. All students please stay away from this place after entering the school!"
"Ah? Vampire?"
Are you kidding me? There are actually vampires these days? This isn't a TV show, how could it be possible? Someone must be playing a prank. I nodded affirmatively, without even seeing who the sender was, and threw the phone away.
The phone screen gradually went dark, and I didn’t take that nonsensical message seriously.
I quickly dressed myself, grabbed a bottle of yogurt and a piece of bread from the stored food in the refrigerator, and rushed out of the house with my schoolbag on my back.
Vampires, aliens, nothing is as important as going to school now!
Ailey College, here I come!
After taking two buses and walking 200 meters, I finally saw the gate of Ailey College. I took out my phone and saw that there was still half an hour before the official registration. I couldn't help but smile. Haha, I am really a speed genius.
I raised my hand to tidy up my scattered hair, patted the small wrinkles on my school uniform skirt, and then walked into the school in small steps. Since I have time, I have to maintain my ladylike image.
The towering college gate is right in front of you. The color of the white marble looks even more sacred and solemn against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds. The majestic aura makes people want to exclaim in admiration involuntarily.
I took a deep breath, calmed myself down, and walked inside with a smile on my face. But a gust of wind suddenly blew past me, and when I realized it, my vision was filled with a strange girl.
"Oh my god! There is actually such a classical . She is simply the heroine created by God for me! Junior, are you interested in joining our Ancient Drama Club?"
A series of words came out of the mouth of the petite girl in front of me. She had short black hair, which was obviously not carefully groomed, but the way it fluttered in the wind revealed a magical vitality. At this moment, her delicate features were shining brightly because of excitement, especially her burning eyes, which focused their light on me like an 800-watt incandescent lamp. It seemed that she wanted to kidnap me directly!
Oh my god! Did I meet a lunatic the ability to teleport from the gate of Ailey College to the set of a costume drama in the blink of an eye?
You can't blame me for having such an association. She was actually wearing a red ancient costume with black edges that can only be seen on TV. Although the wide robe and big sleeves looked beautiful on TV, it was very scary in real life.
In an instant, countless strange speculations emerged in my mind, even the thought that she was an alien.
By the time I came to my senses, the girl had already circled around me several times, nodding her head with a smile on her face as she circled around me: "Right! This is exactly the feeling I'm looking for this time. You have the temperament of a lady from a noble family, just like an ancient 'white, rich and beautiful'! Haha, I'm so lucky and have such good taste!"
What? Ancient times?
This word finally pulled my thoughts back from outer space. Looking around, I was sure that I was still staying at the gate of Ailey College, but the students around me just glanced at me casually when they passed by, and then walked away as if nothing had happened, as if they were used to it.
Habit? Do they often see this girl like this? Could it be that this girl is really a student of Avery College, my senior?
Oh my god! I am so shocked by this truth!
As a student, why do you wear weird ancient costumes instead of school uniforms? It would be better if you wear space suits...
"I'm sorry, senior, I'm not interested in ancient dramas!"
What a shame! I can almost hear myself sighing in my heart. If it was the space club, I would join without hesitation!
After saying that, I smiled apologetically at this senior who bravely pursued her dream, and then raised my foot to leave.
But the next second, my arm was grabbed forcefully.
"Junior, please listen to me!" The blazing fire of enthusiasm shot out from the senior sister's eyes. The sincere invitation made people just couldn't bear to refuse. "My name is Xiang Qianqian, and I'm the president of the Ancient Drama Club of Ailey College. I'm currently preparing for an annual drama and I'm in need of a leading actress. Your temperament is very suitable. I have absolute confidence in making you a rising star in Ailey College. You have to give me this opportunity!"
"Ah... forget it. I'm really not interested." Under her powerful aura, I felt like I didn't even have the confidence to speak, but I still gritted my teeth and rejected her.
Besides, what a rising star? I must have been caught in a door to be so prominent in the academy. A freshman doesn't need to be so high-profile. Besides, I'm only interested in aliens.
Thinking of this, I raised my hand and touched the thing hanging on my chest, which made me more determined to escape from this strange senior sister.
But, who can tell me, why does the senior sister show no signs of giving up even though I have already explained it so clearly?
"Yes, yes!" Xiang Qian was a model of facing challenges head-on. Instead of giving up, she desperately pulled my arm and pulled me into the academy. "Come and have a look at our drama club. I promise you will like it there. You will never be disappointed!"
"Senior, I still have to go to class!"
"It doesn't matter. There's still half an hour left. That's enough!"
"But I..."
"No buts, I'll take you to the classroom in a moment!"
"Senior! I really have no interest..."
"I got interested when I saw it, and I'll be there soon!"
…
At this moment, I really regretted that I had always maintained an elegant image in front of others. If there were no other people around, I would definitely shout at the back of the senior sister -
Senior, it’s no use trying to force me. Unless you can find an alien as the male lead for me, I will never stay in your drama club!
Absolutely not!
I will definitely prove it to you!
