Chapter 3: Gem Star with Strange Thoughts 1
The sound of reading books had already begun. Under the dissatisfied gaze of the teacher with a Mediterranean hairstyle, I floated towards my seat like a wandering soul.
And wherever I passed, all my classmates looked at me with gloating eyes, and occasionally whispers floated into my ears.
"This Bai Jie Ni is so bold. She's already late twice in just two days of school. It's really speechless!"
"Yeah, I don't know how someone like that got into Avery College. Could it be because of that face? Haha!"
"What? That face is useless now. Didn't you see how much Senior Norn hated her just now? He even asked her to get out of the academy. It seems that she must have offended the study group."
"It's nothing to offend the study group, but it's terrible to offend Minister Yao Shanshan of the Student Union. She came back so late, she must have been taught a lesson by Senior Sister Yao Shanshan!"
…
I can't hear you! I can't hear you!
I kept hypnotizing myself and finally returned to my seat amid the buzz of people talking.
"Be quiet! It's class time now!"
Finally, Teacher Haideng slammed the blackboard eraser in his hand heavily on the podium, and the classroom became quiet instantly.
I looked at the teacher with gratitude, and my gaze met the teacher's, but the teacher's expression did not look happy at all.
"I warn some students, don't think that everything will be fine after you get into Ailey College. If you don't follow the rules, are late or leave early, cause trouble, or disrupt school order, you will be severely punished! Okay, late students, take out your textbooks!"
The teacher frowned, glared at me, then turned back to continue the class.
But my heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
The teacher is talking about me, right? He must be talking about me, right?
Woohoo…My heart instantly burst into tears. Countless resentments swirled above my head, forming a mushroom cloud, and then gathered one by one into a line of big words:
Norn! I hate you! Not only in this life, but also in the next life, the next life, and the next life, for thousands of generations, forever!
"A-choo! A-choo!"
In a classroom not far away, Noen, who was studying seriously, suddenly sneezed twice, which immediately attracted the merciless ridicule of Hua Qianye who was sitting next to him.
"Haha! Norn, didn't you say that you, the Satyrs, are immune to all poisons? How come you also have symptoms of a cold?"
"I don't have a cold!" Norn raised his head from the book in dissatisfaction. Something seemed to flash quickly in his blue eyes, but eventually fell silent.
He always felt like something was wrong, and an idea flashed through his mind.
This feeling, like the one on the eve of Star Wars, makes people excited and expectant. The heart that hasn't beat violently for a long time suddenly vibrates in the chest at twice the speed as usual. This feeling of being about to face a challenge is really not bad.
He shrugged and prepared to continue working on the exercises in the book.
However, Hua Qianye, who always loves to watch the fun, would not let him go so easily. He raised his hand and touched his nose, then pretended to be thinking seriously, but if you look closely, you can find that there is a cunning light flashing in his eyes that seem to contain the brightest stars in the sky.
"It's not a cold?" He gently brushed his honey-gold hair with his fingers and nodded , "Then it must be because of that reason!"
After saying that, he poked Tian Yifeng and Lucifer who were sitting in front of him and asked them mysteriously: "Is that right?"
"Um!"
Although Norn and Hua Qianye's voices were very low just now, with their abilities, they could naturally hear it clearly, so the two of them nodded cooperatively, and then looked at Norn with sympathy.
Facing such a gaze, Norn finally couldn't keep his composure any longer.
"What is the reason?" He stared at the three people next to him and asked curiously.
"Huh? So you didn't know!" Hua Qianye secretly winked at Tian Yifeng and Lucifer, then turned around and said very seriously, "There is an old saying on Earth that says if you sneeze once, someone is missing you, and if you sneeze three times, you have a cold..."
"What about the two sneezes? How come you missed that?" Norn asked puzzledly.
"Two sneezes..."
"What is it?" Norn asked quickly.
"Someone scolded you, hahaha!"
Hua Qianye laughed so hard that he fell backwards, but Norn's face became darker and darker.
He finally knew where the uneasy feeling in his heart came from. It seemed to be that annoying girl.
A hint of danger flashed across his azure eyes. Norn put his right hand into his pocket, touched the "weapon" he had prepared, and smiled with a determination to win.
The other three exchanged glances very tacitly, then turned away silently.
The show is about to begin!
“Ding Ling Ling…”
The crisp bell for the end of get out of class rang in the quiet campus, and the classroom was filled with joy.
My classmates quickly packed up the things on the table and rushed out of the classroom in groups of three or four. Soon I was the only one left in the classroom.
I lay on the table weakly, without any appetite. But my stomach made a "gurgling" sound, reminding me to comfort it for its hard work in the morning.
Forget it, let’s go eat. Only when you’re full will you have the energy to sigh!
I had no choice but to rub my poor belly and walk out of the classroom. There was no one on the road leading to the school cafeteria. After escaping from the suffocating environment and breathing the fresh air outside, I finally felt a little better.
Along the way, I walked slowly and had time to look at the scenery of the school for the first time. I found that the whole Ailey College was like a big garden, with lush trees and colorful flowers everywhere, and occasionally there would be crisp bird calls, bringing a vibrant vitality to the quiet campus.
From a distance, I saw the pale yellow roof of the school cafeteria, and that made me feel even hungrier.
I turned another corner and it was there. I took a deep breath, as if I could already smell the aroma of the food, and quickened my pace to walk over.
But the next moment, my eyes went dark and a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of me as if it had fallen from the sky.
Then, a strange voice mixed with excitement entered my ears like the voice of a devil——
"Here, for you!"
This sound... this sound is...
I shuddered all over and raised my head subconsciously.
The first thing that catches your eye is a pair of blue eyes that are cooler than the polar waters, followed by a handsome face with clear contours, a high nose bridge, thin lips that are always as red as blood, an elf-like pointed chin, and the iconic long silver hair.
It's Norn!
Level 8 alarms quickly sounded in my mind. I crossed my arms reflexively, widened my eyes and asked loudly , "Hey! What do you want to do?"
I haven't forgotten this guy's dark history. The first time I met him, he peeped at me changing clothes, and we had another grudge this morning. Now he wants to give me something, and I know with my toes that it's not a good thing...
A sense of crisis rose from deep in my heart, and I secretly looked around. It was lunch time, and no classmates passed by here. This was also a hidden corner. Could this guy want to take revenge on me?
But...but there was a handful of shiny things lying in his palm, reflecting the dazzling light in the sunlight, almost blinding my eyes.
"What's that expression on your face?"
A cold voice came from the other side.
I looked over in surprise, only to find that for some reason, Norn's face, which was originally white and almost transparent, turned so black that it seemed like ink was dripping out. His pair of blue eyes were filled with raging anger, his pointed chin was raised high, and a cold snort that was enough to freeze a person came out of his nostrils.
"On our planet... where we are, girls who are not taller than 1.8 meters are defective. Who would be interested in you? I just want to give you this pile of junk gems, humph!"
After saying that, he gave me a look of extreme contempt, as if my action was a huge insult to him.
1.8 meters tall ? Defective product? Rubbish gem?
The power of these words was no less than that of an atomic bomb, and they blew away my sanity.
Hey! What does "girls who are not taller than 1.8 meters are defective" mean? Where is there such a strange rule? This is not the land of giants. With my height of 165 cm, I am definitely not short among girls.
Also, what do you mean by "on our planet?" What is "planet"? Planet? Do you really think you are an alien?
I was about to roll my eyes at him with disdain, but I was stunned the next second. What...what is this?
It was not until this moment that I saw clearly that the pile of "junk gems" that Norn called were actually real gems!
It is greener than the leaves that just sprouted in early spring, more tranquil and mysterious than the clearest sea water, and more elegant and dreamy than the love hidden deep in a girl’s heart... The gems dotted between the white palms are like flowing streams in the sun, making people’s heartbeats quicker and quicker involuntarily!
"I just want to give you this pile of junk gems..."
With my heart beating rapidly, I suddenly remembered what Norn had just said, and I calmed down instantly, as if I had been thrown into a cold storage room. In other words, these gems that were so beautiful that they seemed to not belong to this world were actually given to me as garbage?
Are you kidding me?
For a moment, I really had the urge to rip open the guy's head. Is he crazy? Or is this actually his conspiracy?
In an instant, the eight-level alarm rose to nine-level. I subconsciously took a step back and looked at him vigilantly.
"Why are you giving me these? Are you trying to hurt me?"
"To harm you?" My question seemed to stun him, but soon, he seemed to come to his senses, with a weird expression on his face, and the words he said were even more incomprehensible, "Yes, that's right, I just wanted to harm you, so I gave you the most annoying thing. How about it? Are you scared?"
He shook his head smugly, with an expression that said "take away the annoying things quickly", and moved his hand holding the gem closer to me.
The corners of my mouth twitched as I looked at the pile of gems that were treated as trash, and I seemed to hear their sad cries.
Nowadays there are people who regard money as dirt. I admire you!
I looked at Norn like he was a fool. I couldn't imagine what the structure of this man's brain was that would make him do such a strange thing.
"I do not want!"
As a principled person, I would never allow myself to have any contact with lunatics or perverts, so the next moment, I decisively refused, even though my heart was bleeding.
God knows how obsessed I am with these shiny things because of my nature as a girl, and the gorgeous light flowing on those gems always gives me a very familiar feeling, as if I have seen them somewhere.
"don't want?"
Why did Norn look like he was expecting me to reject him? Moreover, he looked at the beautiful gemstones in his hand with disgust, as if he was looking at a pile of rotten food, and he was so disgusted that he would throw them away in the next second.
How strange! Could it be that these gems are actually...
But before I could figure it out, my vision suddenly blurred. I don't know when, Norn had grabbed my hand, stuffed all the gems into my hand, and said quickly in a strange tone: "No! These nasty things should be yours!"
"Ah!" The warmth of my hand was strange and bizarre. After a brief moment of daze, I clenched my fist reflexively and struggled violently, "Let me go! Pervert! Damn Norn! Let me go!"
I was panting and about to take more drastic action when suddenly a large number of chaotic footsteps came from the direction of the cafeteria, and someone shouted loudly -
"Someone seems to be calling Senior Norn over there, let's go check it out."
"Yeah, I heard it too. It was a girl's voice!"
"It seems that our senior Norn is in danger, let's go and save him!"
…
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and I stopped struggling in fear.
Norn seized the opportunity to pry my hands open, stuffed the warm gem into me, and then showed a smug smile as if he had finally gotten rid of the annoying thing.
However, he soon stopped laughing. At the other end of the corner, the sound of footsteps came as fast as the tide. The smile on his face quickly froze, and then he slapped his head in annoyance, raised his head and gave me a complicated look, then closed his eyes and shouted at the corner like a broken jar: "Anywhere Door!"
Tsk! This time, I finally rolled my eyes, and I was even more certain that this guy was mentally ill. Sarcastic words gushed out of my throat: "Don't waste your energy. Do you think this is a science fiction world? If you really have a portal, you might as well say that you are an outsider..."
The last two words were stuck in my throat. I watched helplessly as the wall one meter away suddenly twisted, revealing the shape of a door emitting golden light. Norn, who was just being complained about by me, took a step forward and disappeared into the door the next second.
Soon, everything returned to calm, the grass was empty, and there was no trace of Norn.
I stood there in amazement, my hands dropped limply in shock, and the colorful gems fell to the ground.
The group of shouting girls finally appeared in front of me, but I could no longer hear what they were saying. My mind was full of what had just happened.
I reached out and pinched myself hard. It hurt so much!
Isn't this a dream?
The Norn who suddenly stuffed a bunch of gems at me, the portal that appeared out of nowhere, and the girls who came over like a tide...
I patted my forehead. I must have been infected by Norn recently, which is why I have become abnormal. I even imagined the ability to travel through space through the portal in broad daylight. Only aliens have this skill. It seems that I really need to take a good rest.
Yes, go back and have some rest, then you won’t imagine such a ridiculous scene.
I raised my foot and wanted to leave, but I don’t know if it was because of the great impact I had received before, but the next second, my eyes went dark, my legs went weak, and I fainted.
