Chapter 7: The Mysterious Disappearance of the Faint Star 1
“Boom boom—”
Lightning and thunder split the sky, and the wind howled like a wild beast close to the ground. Although it was daytime, the sky was as dark as night, and the gray sky was like a piece of silk cloth soaked in ink, weighing heavily on people's heads.
“Crackle—”
Another flash of lightning passed by, and the silk cloth finally couldn't withstand the huge pressure, and countless raindrops as big as beans crashed down on it.
“It’s raining so hard!”
Someone behind me sighed.
I withdrew my gaze from the window. The bald math teacher on the podium was still explaining the basics of calculus. Most of the sleepy people in the audience were awakened by the thunder and lightning, and everyone opened their eyes wide at once.
So the teacher spoke more enthusiastically.
"well……"
I sighed deeply, then propped up my chin and stared at the rain outside in a daze.
I had no idea when Yao Shanshan left that day, because when I rushed into the kitchen, I found that Noen had been caught red-handed for stealing a whole pot of chili peppers, and he even reached for another pot of chili peppers despite everyone's accusations.
The scene at that time...
I covered my eyes, I really didn’t dare to look!
Can you imagine a few burly chef uncles surrounding Norn and trying to beat him up? It took me a lot of effort to rescue that poor and hateful guy.
However, the price we paid was that our debt to the restaurant was cruelly doubled by the angry owner.
So, what was supposed to be a wonderful weekend ended with the two of us squatting in a corner washing dishes until eight o'clock in the evening.
"well……"
Thinking about what happened that day, I couldn't help but let out my second sigh of the day.
That day was so chaotic that I didn't have time to ask more about Nuo En. Then I ran into Yao Shanshan, and finally the fat boss locked me in the kitchen to wash dishes. I didn't have the chance to ask again. Now when I want to ask, I don't know how to start.
I don't know what happened, but since that day, I felt like my mentality seemed to have changed a little bit, especially when facing Norn. As soon as I picked up the phone and saw that name and phone number, my whole person would become abnormal. I would either blush and be dazed, or my heart would be pounding. This is simply not the normal attitude that a researcher should have towards the research subject!
What's wrong with me? Am I sick?
Was it because he was a little too excited because Norn's identity was suddenly confirmed? Or was it because he was related to the alien uncle I met?
Yes! That's right! That's it!
I nodded affirmatively, and my messy mood finally improved a little, but soon new troubles emerged.
Yao Shanshan said mysteriously that she heard the conversation between me and Norn. She couldn’t really know who Norn was…
My heart suddenly began to tighten. Should I take this opportunity to tell Norn?
You should tell me, right?
Does this mean that I can meet Norn again?
It seemed as if countless fireworks were blooming in my heart, and a feeling of joy lingered in my mind.
"hey-hey……"
A weird laugh suddenly broke out of my throat.
"Bai Jieni! Bai Jieni!"
Suddenly, someone shook my arm.
I turned my head with joy, and found that the bald teacher who was "chanting" on the podium just now appeared beside me at some point, staring at me with very dissatisfied eyes.
My deskmate was covering his mouth with one hand, looking terrified, and had the other hand on my arm.
The classroom was silent. I could feel the gazes of people around me looking at me. Some were sympathetic, some were mocking, and some were gloating.
Damn! I forgot I was in class!
"Bai Jie Ni! Is my class funny? Huh? Is it funny?" The bald teacher breathed heavily from his nostrils, and pointed his short and thick fingers tremblingly out of the window, "Get out! Get out right now!"
This was the first time in my life that I was kicked out of the classroom by a teacher.
The weather outside was so bad that I was standing in the corridor shivering in my thin uniform, my body almost frozen.
Woohoo... How could I be so unlucky? So many students dozed off in class just now, but the teacher didn't seem angry. I just laughed twice, but I received such an inhumane punishment!
Bald teacher, I hate you! I thought with resentment.
"Hey! Let go! Just get out if you want, who's afraid of who?"
Suddenly, a nonchalant voice came from the classroom next door, and then with a "bang", the classroom door made a loud noise and a figure rushed out.
Huh? There are other unlucky people like me?
I quickly took two steps toward that direction.
"why you?"
When I saw the figure clearly, I couldn't help but exclaim.
"why you?"
The other person was as surprised as I was and also let out a strange cry.
It's true that we meet everywhere in life. The person who was kicked out of the classroom like me was Ai Keqi.
He wasn't wearing his iconic motorcycle suit today, so I didn't recognize him at first glance.
However, even in the school uniform, he wore it in a wild way. All the buttons of his jacket were undone, revealing a white shirt with only three buttons fastened inside. His pants were neat, but the dazzling diamond-studded belt around his waist was too eye-catching. It seemed that as long as he stood there, he was vividly interpreting the true meaning of the word "unruly".
The two of us stood in the windy and rainy corridor, looking at each other, and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing at the same time.
It really is fate.
I secretly took two steps towards him, making sure that no one in the classroom would see me, and then I lowered my voice and asked, "Why were you kicked out?"
"Humph!" He lifted his hair nonchalantly, "Why else? You just don't like me!"
He shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't want to talk about his own affairs, and quickly asked back: "What about you ? Haven't you always been a good student? Why were you kicked out?"
"I..." When I mentioned this, I felt extremely depressed, "I didn't pay attention in class."
"Fell asleep?"
"No, I... laughed."
"Hahaha!"
Ai Keqi, who was originally curious, laughed out loud when he heard the answer. He held his stomach while laughing and asked me, "What can make you laugh in class? Tell me so that I can be happy too! Haha!"
This guy! I'm already unlucky enough, and he still laughs at me.
I walked away angrily and turned my head away, ignoring him.
"Eh? Are you angry?" Ai Keqi, who had finally laughed enough, came over and blinked. "Don't be angry! Look at the bad weather. If you don't have fun now, you'll get moldy, right? Come on, tell me, are you thinking about the boy you like?"
"No way!" I pushed his teasing face away, but I couldn't control my face from getting hot, and I retorted, "I don't have a favorite boy!"
"Ah? Really? Haha!" Ai Keqi seemed to not believe what I said at all. After being pushed away by me, he directly put one leg on the railing of the corridor, with a playful smile on his face.
"You... are so annoying!" I rushed over in anger and wanted to hit him.
He kept yelling and dodging my fists, and we started playing around .
"Don't hide!"
"You have to hide. I didn't realize you're still a violent person!"
"You are the violent one! You are not allowed to talk nonsense!"
"Haha! Be careful not to be seen by the person you like!"
"No way! I told you to stop talking nonsense!"
…
"Bai Jie Ni!"
"Aikeqi!"
Two loud shouts louder than the thunder outside suddenly resounded throughout the corridor. A bald, short and fat old man and a middle-aged teacher with a beer belly came straight at them from two directions like cannonballs.
Finished!
My eyes went dark.
At this time, I grabbed Ai Keqi's collar with one hand and clenched my other hand into a fist, while Ai Keqi tilted his body exaggeratedly and made strange noises from his mouth.
this……
Teacher, can I say that I’m not actually familiar with him?
