" The outline has been confirmed. We will now slowly resume the update. Also, I wish 1001 good luck with the revision on August 1st."
The classroom was noisy. Almost all the students were preparing for the upcoming Children's Day. However, Xiao Jun was still sitting there motionlessly, just like when he came in the morning. His head was lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking. He heard that his grandmother, who had relied on him for survival, had died. Just a few days ago, Xiao Jun was originally an orphan, but now, no one wanted him anymore.
Lin Feng walked over with a smile and said,"Qiang Zi, did you say that Xiao Jun really waited beside his grandmother's body for three days?”I retracted my gaze. Bai Yangyang leaned over and said,""In this weather, the corpses have already started to rot. Aiyo, how disgusting.”After saying that, she even pretended to be disgusted.
"I have to stay away from him in the future. Do you think he smells like a corpse?”Lin Feng said.
"It's possible, it's possible. What do you think, Qiangzi?”Bai Yangyang pushed me and asked.
I shook my head." Who knows? He was a freak anyway, and now he's even weirder."”
The bell rang. Lin Feng and Bai Yangyang returned to their seats. I looked at Xiao Jun, who had his head lowered. He had been in this position since morning. He lowered his head so I couldn't see his face, but I could feel that this Xiao Jun seemed to be completely different from before. There was a faint aura that made me afraid.
Xiao Jun's parents had passed away a long time ago. Xiao Jun had been living with his sick grandmother. Perhaps it was because of his inferiority complex or because his heart was hurt, but he rarely communicated with others and was extremely withdrawn. In addition, his family was poor and no one cared about him, so he was often bullied and never fought back.
Suddenly, Xiao Jun's body began to tremble slightly, as if he was secretly laughing. It looked very strange. I didn't dare to look any longer, and my heart kept beating.
The homeroom teacher was talking about the June 1 schedule, but I didn't listen. I had a feeling that someone was staring at me, but I didn't dare to confirm it because my subconscious told me that the person looking at me was Xiao Jun. I don't know if it's because I heard the rumor that he waited beside his grandmother's body for five days, but I'm very afraid of him now.
"Let's start cleaning." As soon as the teacher finished speaking, the classroom immediately erupted into an uproar. Children's Day is indeed worthy of our excitement. The feeling of uneasiness from before had disappeared. We gathered in groups of two or three and worked absent-mindedly. Our mouths kept talking about our plans for an outing and a holiday, as well as what kind of gifts our parents would give us.
" Pa!" A crisp sound suddenly interrupted the commotion in the classroom. All the students, including me, looked in the direction of the sound.
In a corner of the classroom, the teacher glared angrily at Xiao Jun. It turned out that Xiao Jun had accidentally poured a bucket of dirty water on the teacher. In a fit of anger, the teacher gave Xiao Jun a loud slap.
The teacher raised his hand and slapped Xiao Jun's face again. However, Xiao Jun didn't cry or even shake his head. He looked up and looked straight into the teacher's eyes.
"You!" The teacher raised his hand and wanted to hit Xiao Jun again, but his raised hand suddenly stopped. Moreover, the hand that was raised above his head began to tremble.
Xiao Jun, who had been silent all this while, suddenly asked in a condescending tone,"Are you done?" I couldn't help but open my mouth wide. She couldn't believe that Xiao Jun would dare to openly provoke the form teacher. The form teacher was a sports teacher. He was only 25 or 26 years old. There wasn't a single student in the school who wasn't afraid of him.
Just as I was waiting to see how Teacher would torture Xiao Jun, Teacher actually stammered,"Enough, enough." His voice was trembling. Not only me, but all the children in the class were shocked.
Xiao Jun snorted coldly, turned around and kicked away the bucket in front of him. He left the classroom without looking back. After a long while, the students finally recovered from their shock and began to discuss.
When I walked into the classroom with a bucket of water, I saw the form teacher. She had already changed into a pair of clean pants.
"Qiang Zi, take me to Xiao Jun's house. My classmates all said that only you know where Xiao Jun's house is.”The teacher resumed his usual tone of speaking to us.
When I heard that, I suddenly became anxious and quickly explained,"They all…? "Before I could finish, I saw those students behind the teacher making faces at me. I immediately understood that they were pushing the blame on me when I wasn't around. Thus, I couldn't say anything more and could only admit that I was unlucky and follow behind Teacher.
When I saw Xiao Jun's house, my heart tightened and I suddenly felt nervous.
"Teacher, this is it." I pointed at the dilapidated bungalow in front of me that could collapse at any moment. I could clearly sense that I lacked confidence when I spoke.
The house in front of him was even more dilapidated than it had been a few years ago. The windows of the entire house were all nailed up by wooden planks. The weeds in the courtyard were as high as knees. It seemed that this house had been abandoned for at least ten years, but Xiao Jun had been living here with his grandmother.
The courtyard door had long disappeared, leaving only the outline of the courtyard behind the crooked fence.
The teacher called Xiao Jun's name into the room. No one answered for a long time. The teacher looked at me and walked into the courtyard. I wanted to follow behind the teacher, but the house in front of me didn't look like a living place. It looked like a haunted house.
However, I wasn't willing to stay here alone. While I was hesitating, there was a creak. It was the sound of an old door being opened. It sounded like an old man who was about to die. I was so scared that I took two steps back and looked at my teacher nervously.
The teacher stood in front of the door and did not move. He seemed to be a little hesitant, but soon he called out,"Teacher Xiao Jun knows you're inside. Come out quickly. "The voice is faking friendliness, very hypocritical.
After shouting a few times, there was still no answer. Perhaps the teacher's patience had run out, so his tone became stiff."Xiao Jun, if you don't come out, I'll go in!”Then he turned to me and said,"Qiang Zi, wait for me here."”Before I could answer, he pushed the door open and walked in. He disappeared into the darkness in an instant. My heart sank. I felt that once Teacher went in, he might never come out again. I wanted to shout but I couldn't. I could only stand there and look at the dark door in front of me.
As time passed, my heart began to beat faster and faster. My mind was constantly imagining what kind of danger Teacher would be in. The more I thought about it, the more nervous I became. In the end, I boldly walked into the courtyard.
"Teacher, what are you doing inside?”I stood at the dark door but didn't dare to walk in. It was strangely quiet inside and I couldn't hear anything. I took two more steps toward the door and stretched my neck to look inside. A cold air with a strange smell assaulted me.
I nervously took a few steps back and continued shouting,"Teacher, it has been a long time. I have to go back.”My voice trembled. However, there was still no response from inside. I wanted to walk in, but when I saw the dilapidated house and the tightly sealed windows, I immediately lost my courage.
After about a minute, the teacher still didn't come out. I really couldn't wait any longer. I turned around and wanted to escape, but I actually came to the dark door again. He held his breath and listened carefully to the movements inside.
The entire world seemed to have become quiet all of a sudden, so quiet that my heart beat like a drum. I wanted to escape, but my curiosity led me into the room step by step.
The moment he stepped into the house, the light immediately disappeared. Behind him was the glaring afternoon sun, but in front of him was pitch black. This feeling was a little strange.
"Teacher, where are you? Teacher?" I called out softly. I didn't dare to raise my voice at this moment, afraid that I would alarm something dangerous lurking in the darkness.
The room shouldn't be big, but my voice echoed in the room. I couldn't tell if it was an illusion or something else, but my heart was beating wildly. I sucked in a cold breath. A strange smell made me want to vomit. I covered my mouth and turned around to run out.
The moment I turned around, I saw a figure standing in the bright and unnatural light outside the door. The figure was small and familiar, and it seemed to be enveloped in light. I could only see a shadow. It was standing where I was just now, but I didn't notice it at all.
His body seemed to have suddenly lost its center of gravity as he staggered backward and crashed heavily into a table.
"Hehe." A sharp laugh came from behind me. My breath was stuck in my throat. How could there be someone behind me?
