Chapter 508: Qiao Mu Private High School

Lu Yizhan had just handed over the prop of the examination paper to Cen Buming for sealing, and was going to try to find the prop of this prop from the game, and was going to enter the game in the next two days, and when he came back, he heard about this matter of Bai Liu, and to say it is not an exaggeration, his brain buzzed for a moment.

"Bai Liu ran away?" Lu Yizhan sat in a trance on the couch at Fang Dian's house, across from him sat Fang Dian , "...... How did he run away."

"I went to the orphanage and asked, he didn't go back." Fang Dian lowered her head, her hand dead against the coffee table, her voice a little hoarse, "...... I looked for it, and there is nothing around the school."

"Bai Liu didn't go back to the orphanage, he didn't go back to school, and he didn't go back here." Lu Yizhan's expression was almost blank, he looked at Fang Dian and asked very softly, as if he were asking Fang Dian and as if he were asking himself, "There are only so many places he can go."

"Where else would he go?"

Yes, Lu Yizhan realizes after the fact that because of his interference, there are only three places left in the world that can accommodate Bai Liu, and now two of them - the school and the orphanage - can't, and the only place that can accommodate him, is here.

But here are the two people who pushed him to this point.

Where else would ...... Bai Liu go?

He needs food, shelter, transportation, rest, all of which requires money, and where does he get it?

Lu Yizhan slowly lowered his head as he buried his face into his palm and exhaled deeply.

Summer rains are plentiful, and usually the thunder strikes and rumbles no more than two times before it soon pours.

Now is a weekday, the college entrance exams are approaching, out to play with the students and children a lot less, the commercial street arcade bosses see a downpour, pedestrians have to avoid, the customer flow is less a cut, can not help but sigh, thinking about today or not to close early.

He had just turned off the big display screen on the outer street and raised his hand to pull the roll-up door down when a hand, white with rain, gripped the descending roll-up door.

The owner froze as he pulled upward to open the roll-up door.

Heavy rain can make a thick fog on the street, the busy streets become a blurred backdrop in the rain and fog, and wearing a soaked school uniform Bai Liu just like that standing quietly in front of such a background, there is a strange sense of abstraction, as if he does not belong to this world.

Bai Liu raised his eyes, his dark eyes calmly looking at the owner: "Are you still open today?"

"...... open for business." The boss was about to say it was closed, but looking at Bai Liu's soaked school uniform, he changed his tune, "You come in first and take shelter from the rain."

Bai Liu walked in, he looked sideways at the boss, "That shooting game before, can the first place reward be converted into money?"

"It's fine, you can exchange it for five hundred." The boss looked at Bai Liu's school uniform and couldn't help but advise, "I remember you're a senior in high school, right? Wait until you graduate and then come over to play, there's no need to skip school and come over to play, the college entrance exam is important."

Bai Liu was quiet for a moment, his tone light, "I can't read anymore, I've been expelled."

The boss was shocked, "How did you get kicked out of school? You're a senior in high school! Don't your parents make a fuss if you get dropped out at this juncture?"

"I don't have a parent." Bai Liu said faintly, "Can you turn on the machine?"

The boss was stunned, he wanted to ask something more, but couldn't open his mouth again, he just sighed with a complicated look and turned on the machine for Bai Liu.

"You play."

Bai Liu nodded politely, "Thanks boss."

He lifted the curtain and went in, and soon the double pattern of sheepish gunfire was sounding, and the boss was outside tucking his hands in with mixed feelings and sighing.

...... He had seen the boy's golden banner on the Ferris wheel before, so how could it be in just a few days ......

And what a lot of energy this kid has, dropping out and getting wet and playing in two-player mode.

The boss looked with some novelty at the two player names logged onto the machine again, one Spades and one Bai Liu, and couldn't help but shake his head in amusement - surely he was only in his teens, and had given himself a symmetrical gaming alias.

Bai Liu looked intently at the two characters jumping in the game screen with his gun raised, the corner of his mouth ticked very shallowly as Spades, the game character next to him, followed him all the way, escorting him.

Outside the curtain, a very soft voice suddenly came:

"Hello, have you seen this student?"

Bai Liu's pupils shrunk when he heard this voice, in the screen, Spades' character instantly stopped moving, Bai Liu turned his head sharply to look at the Spades next to him - the monster that had just played the game with a gun with him had disappeared.

Outside the curtain, the soft female voice was still asking politely, her voice was full of sincerity and supplication, "I am Fang Dian, I am the sister of this student in the photo, he is now running away from home, if you have seen him, can you tell me? We shall be grateful."

There was a somewhat awkward pause in the owner's voice as he finally said, "...... haven't seen it."

"Then here's our phone number, if you ever see it be sure to give us a call." Fang Dian brushes down her phone number with a pen and paper, "Thank you in advance."

"He's very fond of horror games and may come to your place."

Bai Liu leans back against the gaming machine in silence, his head tilted back, his frontal hair obscuring his eyes from view, and all that can be heard is the sound of his very shallow breathing and the sound of water dripping from the ends of his hair and clothes.

Both characters in the horror game crash-landed, and they were chewed to death by the zombies that swooped down on them.

When Fang Dian left and Bai Liu lifted the curtain and came out, this boss immediately complained about him, "How do you say you don't have parents? Your sister braved the rain to find you."

Bai Liu said in a very light tone, "Thank you for not telling on me."

This boss gave a beat and sighed again, "I have a lot of parents here who come to look for students, and it's a basic work ethic not to give them away, but your sister doesn't look like that kind of parent, and she's quite worried about you."

"Her eyes are red and she looks like she's cried several times."

Bai Liu paused again, "I didn't get the first prize."

"Let's see ah ......" The boss lifted the curtain and walked in, "Second prize, not bad, you want to cash money? Two hundred dollars."

Bai Liu nods, "Tui."

Boss take money to Bai Liu, he paused, and then said with hard to hide the sigh, "you a student boy, outside is very difficult, it is better to go back quickly."

Bai Liu took the money and turned around ready to leave, when he heard the boss say this his back stopped for a moment and then said, "I'm not alone."

"Someone to keep me company."

The owner asked, "Who is it?"

Bai Liu replied calmly, "Spades."

The boss was stunned, but Bai Liu had already walked away in the rain and mist.

The boss looked back with a foggy head, he turned his head, looking towards the [Spades] name that was topped on the console's changing surface on the fallen, dead game character, and couldn't help but mumble to himself in confusion, "But Spades ......"

"Not an NPC player who only exists in the game?"

"It's been four days." Lu Yizhan, with dark circles under his eyes so thick they fell to his cheeks, said breathlessly, "Where the hell is Bai Liu?"

At this point, Lu Yizhan even began to regret not asking Cen Buming, who was there in the first place, to send a few people to follow Bai Liu.

He now spends one third of his time worrying about Bai Liu getting into trouble, another third of his time worrying about Bai Liu letting other people get into trouble, and the remaining one third of his time dealing with college entrance exam papers, games, orphanages, and schools, hating to break a person into sixty-four petals and turn them around.

Can't use Cen Buming's people, really tracked down Bai Liu, if Bai Liu is doing something, Cen Buming will definitely kill Bai Liu with one shot.

Can not be reported to the police, now Bai Liu has a fraud on the body has not yet been verified, and so reported to the police that is directly sent in, and even more can not be mobilized heresy and game props to track down Bai Liu, each heresy is related to Bai Liu, if it really tracked down, then Bai Liu can definitely through the heresy to influence Bai Liu.

Bai Liu is the most special child in this world, Lu Yizhan this kind of hands have countless ways of "parents", in front of the face of this runaway child, can only be helpless to adopt the most common and bitter search method among parents - that is, he and Fang Dian two people flesh search. -That is, he and Fang Dian both searched for each other.

But he and Fang Dian had searched like crazy and still hadn't found Bai Liu.

Bai Liu is very smart, if this person really doesn't want to be found, even if Lu Yizhan uses all the above ways, it will be hard to find him.

In the afternoon of Lu Yizhan's dark, unknown day, Fang Dian finally brought back good news and bad news:

"I found Bai Liu in an Internet cafe in the next district," Fang Dian said, "but he didn't want to come back."

Lu Yizhan went from glowing to heartbroken in a second, and he collapsed on the couch, almost crying out with a woof, "Why!"

"It's all worked out!"

They spent a great deal of effort to find the principal deliberately hidden surveillance, proving that Bao Kangle forced Bai Liu to gamble, and found Hou Tong as a witness to testify, so it can be said that the evidence is all in evidence, and successfully cleared the suspicion of Bai Liu.

Later, when Bao Kangle was asked why he bit back at Bai Liu, the man stammered and couldn't come up with a solution, but when Xu Wei was interrogated, he didn't hold back and blurted out that the principal had secretly done something to the students.

It was a big deal, the whole school went through a harsh thorough investigation, and the principal and Xu Wei, two dogs who don't deserve to be teachers, were sent straight in on the spot.

Bao Kangle was expelled from school and given a demerit.

On Cen Buming's side, Lu Yizhan has also found the solution to the [incorrect college entrance exam paper] from the game, and has successfully sealed the paper as a heresy. Moreover, Lu Yizhan has lifted the effects of the heresy on the girl before, and used props to blur part of the other girl's memories, so that the other girl now thinks that what she saw when she fell down was all a hallucination.

Bao Kangle's influence Lu Yizhan originally wanted to eliminate him as well, but the man's mental state is very bad right now, and I don't know if the elimination will be effective or not.

Qiao Mu Private High School was cleaned from top to bottom, the high school lake on the mountain was filled in, and the area on the mountain for exceptional students was disbanded. The person who now accepts Qiao Mu Private High School is a respected old senior teacher, and the person who took over Bai Liu's class is a young English teacher, who is said to be the closed disciple of the old teacher, very capable, and of good character, and as soon as he assumed his position, he came to Lu Yizhan and the others to inquire about Bai Liu's situation, and also helped find Bai Liu for several days. As soon as he took over, he immediately came to Lu Yizhan to inquire about Bai Liu's situation, and helped to look for Bai Liu for several days.

Everything is getting better.

In addition to them, many others are looking forward to the return of Bai Liu, Hou Tong, the rest of the Fang Dian volleyball team, and the new English teacher.

Now Bai Liu will never be alone at Qiao Mu High School as he was before.

But Bai Liu is not willing to come back.

"I talked to Bai Liu." Fang Dian rested her face, she seemed to be in deep thought, and also seemed to be in a daze, her gaze was a bit scattered, "He told me that he wanted to live alone."

"He didn't see any harm in just dropping out and living on his own afterward."

"He has no expectations for high school or college, and not much for what he calls ordinary people, and life with the same ordinary people, but he is accustomed to, and harbors expectations for, such a life if he is left alone all the time in the future."

Dian Fang's eyes darted a little, "I think he meant what he said, but I don't think he really wanted one.

"What do you mean?" Lu Yizhan asked with a frown.

Fang Dian took a deep breath, "I feel as if ...... there's something I can't see."

"Stay with him when he's alone."

In the silence of the rented house, Bai Liu lies alone on the wooden bed.

He had been living in an Internet cafe before. When Fang Dian came, he had already left, but then he killed him, saying that it was fine for him not to come back, but he could not stay in the Internet cafe, renting him a small house on the spot and getting him in.

Bai Liu lay on the plank bed, his eyes on the set of keys on the small table across the room-the keys that Fang Dian had found left for him at the Internet cafe.

Next to the set of keys, sprawled on the table, was a Spades who was also watching him.

The room was very quiet and dark, Bai Liu could clearly see Spades' black eyes turn into a strange silver-blue color little by little, and he could clearly see Spades' body become translucent little by little.

"I'm leaving." He heard Spades say.

"Why?" Bai Liu asks, "I'm still alone, why can you go?"

Spades blinked very slowly, "But you soon won't be."

Bai Liu's tone was cold, "I don't need you to decide what I'm like."

Spades voice was soft, "Because I don't want you to be alone, Bai Liu."

He got up slowly, came over and surged Bai Liu, who was lying on the plank bed, into his arms, saying very softly and very lowly:

"The future you will be surrounded by many, many people, and I know that that kind of you is happy, and I hope that kind of happy you comes soon."

"So I don't want you to be alone for too long."

Spades hugged Bai Liu tightly, "Go back."

"We made a deal, and I promise you that in the future I will come to you, see you at first sight, follow you forever, and never disappear again."

Bai Liu grips Spades' shoulder, but his gaze drifts away.

He looks over Spades' shoulder to the set of keys sitting on the tabletop, and there's a long, long moment of silence, and then Bai Liu closes his eyes, and he hmms very softly as he wraps his arm around Spades' shoulders.

Bai Liu is back.

The return of the man of the hour has shaken up the lives of everyone at Qiao Mu Private High School for a while, but his own life has been anything but turbulent.

Can't say it's a no-brainer. He's become the center of attention.

After the cancellation of those school buildings on the mountain, Lu Yizhan and Fang Dian studied at the bottom of the mountain, these two people run to the side of the seventeenth class when they are not doing anything, calling Bai Liu to eat, attending classes, playing ball, doing homework, Hou Tong, who has been attempting to get along with Bai Liu for a little longer before leaving the school, saw that every time he left the class, Bai Liu was circled by Fang Dian, and he was so angry that he was about to bite his teeth. Hou Tong saw that every time he left the class, Bai Liu would be captured by Fang Dian, so he was so angry that he was about to bite his teeth.

The new teacher in the class pays close attention to Bai Liu, and she is friendly but not overly pushy, only marking up his papers with notes that she finds helpful.

The orphanage grants Bai Liu a nightly allowance of eight yuan, just enough for a bowl of beef noodles.

Lu Yizhan and Fang Dian would add money to order an egg for him, so in the last fifty days, Bai Liu actually got a little bit taller.

He was no longer alone, or rather, didn't have the opportunity to be alone; he had too many people clustered around him, and the times when he was alone were few and far between.

Sometimes also Bai Liu would be alone in the flower bed downstairs, he had two popsicles in his hand but the other one he usually didn't eat and he didn't know who ate it, but the times when he was alone like that were usually few and far between.

Soon the time came for the entrance exam.

It's a hot summer day, the sun is shining, and it's a gorgeous day.

Fang Dian and Lu Yizhan got up early in the morning to find Bai Liu for breakfast, Lu Yizhan's face was white with nervousness, and he kept telling Bai Liu before sending him to the exam room, "You must remember to apply the answer card! The answer card is checked twice more."

After instructing Bai Liu, Lu Yizhan subconsciously had to walk out of the school and head outside to the parents' area to wait for Bai Liu to finish his exams.

Fang Dian, in tears and laughter, grabbed Lu Yizhan, who was so nervous that his brain went blank, and walked out of the room with both hands and feet: "Stop right there!"

"Not only Bai Liu is taking the college entrance exam today, you're also taking the college entrance exam, why are you waiting in the parents' section!"

"Oh!" Lu Yizhan slapped his head as he suddenly realized, "I forgot that I'm also going to take the college entrance exam, I just remembered that today is Bai Liu's college entrance exam day."

Bai Liu: "......"

In the end, Bai Liu sent Lu Yizhan, who was so nervous because of his own college entrance exams, into the exam room, and earnestly instructed the other party, "Don't forget to apply your own answer card, Xiaolu."

"You too!" Lu Yizhan grabbed Bai Liu's hand with tears in her eyes, "You'll do well in the college entrance exams!"

Fang Dian also grabbed the two men's hands, and she smiled brightly, "That's for sure, our Bai Liu's high school exams will go smoothly!"

Bai Liu watched Fang Dian and Lu Yizhan wave goodbye to him and enter the examination room, he did not turn around immediately, but looked at the back of these two people and stayed still for a while.

As the backs of these two people were fading away, a black silhouette suddenly appeared beside him.

Spades shakes Bai Liu's hand and Bai Liu slowly reverses the grip.

In the crowded college entrance exam room, Bai Liu stood abruptly in place, his hand holding something in the air, and people kept passing by him and greeting him with smiles:

"Bai Liu, go for your exams!"

"Bai Liu, charge!"

"Steady, Bai Liu, you can do it!"

Whenever a person greets Bai Liu with a smile and wishes him well, the Spades around Bai Liu will disappear for a moment, but soon after the greeter leaves, the Spades will come back and continue to hold Bai Liu's hand.

In the crowd, the Spades held by Bai Liu is like the flickering image of an old film, his silhouette blurred, appearing and disappearing in the sunlight, like a silhouette of a man-made monster, silently appearing next to the hero of a fairy tale.

Holding his hand tightly when he was alone, and silently releasing it when he was swarmed.

Bai Liu walked into the last English exam room, this monster in the window is not bad eyes looking at the low head writing paper Bai Liu, he is as if a look at a glance of the less so, not the slightest bit moved away from looking at Bai Liu.

The moment the bell rang for the end of the college entrance exam, Bai Liu subconsciously turned his head to look at the monster outside the window.

He's gone.

Bai Liu's brain reacted sluggishly for a while, and he suddenly remembered that he had told Spades before that Fang Dian and the others would definitely come to find him for the last exam, and told him to go and wait under the ping pong table instead of waiting outside the classroom.

I think he went to the ping-pong table somewhere, Bai Liu thought.

Fang Dian really came to see him, she excitedly asked Bai Liu how did he do, Bai Liu said he played normally, then Fang Dian cheered up and said later we will go shopping to celebrate, Lu Yizhan even cried with joy.

Soon Lu Yizhan and Fang Dian were dragged away by their classmates, and Bai Liu was given his own free time to return to his seat in the classroom, pause for a moment, and take out a roll of wooden sticks from under the classroom.

There were ten in all, sticks he'd saved up just enough to trade for two cuteness more.

The people in the classroom were discussing enthusiastically, and there were quite a few people hiding in various places to confess their love. Bai Liu, without any expression on his face, brushed past these people without looking at them, and headed down to the flowerbed.

He went to the kiosk and traded ten [one more] sticks for two strawberry-flavored Kindertots, then waited by the ping-pong table in the hot sun.

The ping pong table is a very secret little corner, so is a lot of couples to avoid the director of the teaching staff to explore the holy land of dating, but now everyone has finished the college entrance exams, under the table of love can be tipped over the table to talk about it, there will no longer be a teacher and parents to control it, so this has always been a very popular couples shrine at the moment, instead of a person is not there.

The playground was filled with men and women chasing each other and laughing joyfully, and in the shade under the ping-pong table hid an eighteen-year-old boy with two ice creams waiting for someone to come, a ping-pong table where he had once calmly contemplated ways to kill people in a downpour of rain and where he had once cuddled up with a monster that didn't exist, dodging flashlights sweeping in from the distance.

And now, he waited calmly with the monster's most wanted strawberry flavored cuteness, waiting for him to come out and finish eating with himself before telling him.

Tell him I like you.

As any eighteen year old boy would say to his lover - I like you, stay with me a little longer before you go.

I said what you like and brought your favorite food, so can you walk a little slower because I'm still alone?

The blue sky flew through the floating white clouds and birds, the green shade of the boy wearing a white shirt waiting and waiting, he waited from the hot sun until dusk, from dusk until sunset, until the hand of the ice cream has been completely melted, the monster still did not come ah.

It didn't hear its favorite words, didn't get its favorite ice cream, and just left without even saying goodbye?

When he saw it in the future, if he could see it at all, he must not forgive it so easily.

Bai Liu slowly, slowly lowered his hand that was holding up the ice cream, his face was very calm as he looked into the distance and said:

"I like you, Spades."
