Chapter 23 I still have to go to work tomorrow
Two o'clock in the morning.
The night sky was dark and starless, and the moon was hidden in thick clouds.
Standing on the balcony, Luo Wei looked at the almost pitch-black night. The nights in Saint Karen are always like this. The haze of the industrial age makes people lose interest in appreciating the stars.
Of course, he was not in the mood to look at the stars. He was looking for Helena in the dark.
After searching for more than ten minutes, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Helena really disappeared, and she stayed away from this area of the old house.
Of course, she might also be wandering not too far away, hiding somewhere in the shadows, secretly spying on this old house that was still brightly lit in the middle of the night.
But everything should be fine tonight because Helena's injuries are serious.
Even if she has the ability to regenerate, she won't be able to recover in a short time.
Think of this.
Luo Wei covered his aching right arm and collapsed to the ground.
The wound he had sawed himself in no longer bled, but it was still shocking.
"for you."
Teacher Yves handed over a piece of bandage.
Luo Wei looked up at the pair of dark green eyes that had returned to their original state, smiled and said thank you.
Yves shook her head, looked around, and sat down on the cold ground.
The reason why she also sat on the ground was because...
The second floor of the old house looked like it had been demolished, and the furniture and chairs were long gone...
Looking at the tragic situation at home, it looked like it had just been hit by an earthquake.
Luo Wei and Yi Weier looked at each other and laughed helplessly.
"I remember your family is quite wealthy, right? Renovate it when you have time." Yves said with a smile, "Of course, don't ask me for compensation. I don't have any money."
Luo Wei shook his head. "Teacher, you saved my life. How could I ask you for money?"
"Also... Teacher, you seem to have misunderstood something. My family is really poor. Even though I live in such a big house..."
The parents of the protagonist of the game died a long time ago, leaving behind only this property and no other inheritance.
All Luo Wei's belongings now are this old house that is used as a shelter and his alchemical materials.
"Ah? Is that so?"
"Has your family fallen on hard times?"
Teacher Yves muttered to herself and began to treat her wounds.
Luo Wei observed her. Although Teacher Yiweier was covered in blood and looked scary, she didn't have many wounds.
She simply wrapped the bandage around her right arm, trying to stabilize the dislocated joint.
"Teacher, you said you don't know magic."
Luo Wei pointed at her wounds and said, "If a normal person had endured so many fatal injuries, they would have died several times over."
However, Yves is still alive and well until now, and even her organs can grow back. This recovery ability is simply amazing.
"Teachers don't lie." Yves glanced at him. "If you say you can't do magic, then you can't do magic."
"Is it a bloodline talent?" Luo Wei asked curiously.
If she is not a human being with extraordinary powers, then she can only be a being like Helena, also an extraordinary creature.
In this
Yves paused, narrowing her eyes as she smiled.
"secret."
"oh……"
Her words were basically equivalent to her consent, so Luo Wei didn't plan to ask any further.
After such a fierce battle, both of them sat on the ground tired.
Yiweier looked at Luo Wei with amusement, "I really didn't expect that..."
"Teacher, I've lived for so many years, but I've never seen such an outrageous home visit. Xiao Wei, you really broadened my horizons."
Luo Wei sighed and looked silently at the darkness outside the window.
The love game he once played seemed to have turned into a "horror game" in a certain sense . The paranoid love became bloody and made him breathless.
The story between him and Helena is clearly not over yet. As long as this problem is not resolved thoroughly, things like today will probably happen again...
Luo Wei forced a smile, "Teacher, you always talk about how many years you've lived...Teacher, how old are you?"
Luo Wei looked at her jokingly, very curious.
Yves's face darkened in an instant.
"Why do you care how old I am? I'm only a few years younger than you!"
Luo Wei blinked, "Really?"
"Of course." Yves moved closer and poked Luo Wei's chest with her finger.
"26 years old, remember, your teacher is 26 years old this year!"
She seemed to be deliberately emphasizing it, and even put some emphasis on the number "26".
"Okay, if you say so, then so." Luo Wei responded with a smile.
Yves snorted, and after finally treating the bandage on her right arm, she stood up.
"It looks like your monster sister won't be coming back."
"If there's nothing else, the teacher will leave. I have to go to work tomorrow."
"You still have to go to work when you're injured like this?" Luo Wei was shocked.
"What else can I do if I don't go to work?" Yiweier sighed irritably. "You students don't understand the hardships of society. I, as a teacher, still need to make money..."
Luo Wei looked at her and felt a sense of admiration.
He was so considerate of the students, and even helped as a thug during home visits. Even with his internal organs shattered, he still insisted on going to work. What kind of professional spirit is this...
"Then I won't see you off..." Luo Wei looked towards the gate.
"There are no steam buses to school at this time. It's several kilometers from West City to Karen University. You should walk slowly and try to get to school before dawn..."
"You're so talkative!" Eve couldn't help laughing and ruffled Luo Wei's hair.
"Can you be home alone? What if your weird sister sneaks back again?"
Yiweier looked at him with some worry, "Why don't you stay at the teacher's house?"
She smiled and bewitched, "Teacher, there's something good at home~"
Luo Wei shook his head and declined the teacher's kindness.
On the one hand, he was certain that Helena would not make a surprise attack tonight. The old house was a shelter, a place that Helena was afraid of now.
On the other hand, he still had some things to deal with and couldn't let Teacher Yves see them.
"Oh, since you don't trust the teacher so much, then forget it."
Yves curled her lips and made a gesture to leave.
"Teacher, wait a moment!"
"What else do you want?" Ivril looked at him puzzledly.
"that……"
Luo Wei looked back and saw that the night was no longer so dark, and the darkness had turned into dark blue.
It's almost dawn.
"If you have something to say, just say it!" Yves said unhappily.
Luo Wei smiled and said, "Teacher Yiweier, I would like to ask for a few more days off..."
"Look, I'm seriously injured, and I can't recover like you."
"Two days... well, three days!"
It turned out that he wanted to ask for leave. Yves held his forehead with a headache.
This student had just had his enrollment status reinstated, but he asked for leave one after another. Even if he had sufficient reasons, she would not be able to explain to the Academic Affairs Office.
But when he saw Luo Wei covered in blood, looking at him miserably.
Ivril felt a little soft-hearted again.
"Okay, it's settled."
"Great!" Luo Wei smiled brightly, "Teacher is so nice!"
