Chapter 30 30. Since we have memories, how can we be happy?
"Oh, you guys have to help me, I have to find her back, she has to attend an event on Sunday."

As soon as she got off the car, Zuo Jiangqin followed the police and anxiously emphasized to them the importance of finding Bai Yi.

The policeman who was listening to her adjusted his police hat with the Qilin logo and the words "Jinghe District Police Station" on it, glanced at Zuo Jiangqin, and simply asked,

"Ms. Zuo, you shouldn't be concerned about any activities right now. If you can't find your daughter, it's useless to think about anything. And according to what you said, your daughter ran away from home on her own, right?"

"I"

Blocked by the other party's words, Zuo Jiangqin opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"Okay, Ms. Zuo, we'll do our best to find her, I promise. Don't worry, okay?"

One sentence was enough, but the policeman showed no other expression.

After all, he knew that the welfare of the police station in his community depended on the money paid by those people to operate effectively.
These are the people they serve.

The police retracted their gaze in due time and walked towards the campus.

Several colleagues behind him scattered around, some looking for security guards, some looking for teachers.
At the same time, he pressed his Bluetooth headset and spoke to someone on the other end,
"Little Wright, have you checked the surveillance in the community?"

"We found out, Captain Edo. They said they checked all the surveillance cameras near the villa and didn't see anyone go out from 5pm to 7pm yesterday."

The policeman named Edo frowned in surprise, and after a moment's silence, he continued,

". Check it out for a few hours, and have someone check if there are any blind spots in the surveillance?"

"Okay. But Captain, I think it's unlikely that she will go to school. After all, from the information provided by Ms. Zuo, she rarely goes to school."

"Yes. But I've been looking for it all night, so I can only try my luck here. Ms. Zuo is very nervous, and asking for information is like squeezing toothpaste, she only says one sentence every now and then, and I can't do anything."

"Yes, I know. I was busy for so long last night, but she just said this morning that she often mentioned a classmate named Yan Huan in front of her daughter. It seems that her daughter ran away from home because of this."

Jiang Hu sighed silently, but Zuo Jiangqin was still in front of him, so he didn't want to say more, so he could only whisper,

"Her mind is full of thoughts about what to do with the grand event this weekend after her daughter leaves. If she doesn't go, she will have to pay a lot of penalty money, right?"

"Oh, of course."

Edo originally wanted the other party to continue working while he went to look for the young man called "Yan Huan".

But suddenly new news came from the headset.

"Oh, Captain. The information department sent a message saying that Bai Yi's identity information was not registered in any hotel last night. If our little star didn't condescend to sleep under the bridge in Jinghe District, then..."

Edo suddenly stopped and muttered,

"She has a place to stay?"

Jiang Du turned around and looked at Zuo Jiangqin who was holding a parasol behind him and asked quickly,
"Ms. Zuo, does your daughter have a place to live other than home? Or does she know someone in Linmen who can provide her with a place to stay?"

Zuo Jiangqin was slightly stunned by the question, and after a few seconds he slapped his forehead and said as if he had suddenly realized something.

"She seems to have a best friend! She's much older than her and has a house in Jinghe District, maybe."

"Ms. Zuo, why didn't you tell us about this earlier?"

"She, the main thing is that the woman looks like a shady person with lots of tattoos. I cut off contact with them a long time ago and told them to break up, fearing that they would be a bad influence on my Yiyi. Who knows if they have contacted each other privately, I have forgotten."

"."

Edo was completely speechless.

Even though he was in high spirits, Zuo Jiangqin made him feel a little angry and even wanted to take a quick-acting heart pill.

assi
He rubbed his brows. At this moment, he really hated his job.

Forget it
Money is hard to earn, shit is hard to eat
Who said they can’t afford to offend these rich people in Jinghe District?

Seeing that Jiang Du was speechless for a long time, Zuo Jiangqin took out her cell phone from her brand-name bag and asked tentatively.

"How about I try to contact her?"

Edo nodded with a headache, and took a look at this top school in the Jinghe District.
Totsuki Academy.

Then, he forced a smile at Zuo Jiangqin.
"Okay, please. How about we go find her first?"

"Okay. Oops, I don't remember the phone number. Let me find Yiyi's agent first. Wait a moment."

"Uh-huh."

Daughter, watch out!!
Your dad works hard and lives like this!!
You must study hard in the future, Dad will save money for you to attend this aristocratic high school! !

Edo cried out silently with tears and blood in his heart.

While escorting Zuo Jiangqin back to the police car, Jiang Hu used the intercom to notify all the colleagues who had scattered to come back.

“Beep, beep!!”

The police car sirens sounded again and drove out of the school, leaving all the students in the school confused as they came and went in a hurry.
This also includes Yan Huan who arrived late.

He originally wanted to find out more about the situation, but everyone had left, so of course his wish was dashed.

In essence, Yan Huan actually hoped that the police would not find out anything from their investigation.

After all, if others discover more abnormal phenomena caused by the modifier, they can start a thorough investigation.
This is totally walking a tightrope on the edge of exposing the modifier.

What if she really feels insecure and the modifier explodes, then she won't be able to operate it at all.

If you think about it carefully, among the several known modifier owners, only Bai Yi's modifier is the easiest to be exposed.

Other modifier owners have a series of measures such as memory correction on the recipient after the end of the treatment, but Bai Yi's seems to leave direct traces.

The marks on Zhou Bin's face and the paint on his desk.
It's okay if it happens once or twice, but if it happens too often, it will almost certainly attract attention.

Really
Yan Huan took a deep breath, but his expression was very calm.

At this moment, the security guard in the pavilion outside the gate also walked over with a puzzled look on his face and looked at the door.

Yan Huan raised his eyebrows when he saw him, and then took the initiative to greet him.

"Uncle He!"

"Oh, Yan Huan, you just happened to be here. Just now they said that a student named 'Bai Yi' from our school ran away from home and disappeared, and came to the school to look for him. They also asked for you by name. Did they talk to you about anything?"

Find me?

So it is very likely that Bai Yi's running away from home has something to do with me?

Plus she hated me so much.
Yan Huan thought so in his heart, but he smiled and shook his head.

"No, I just came here to take a look out of curiosity. I didn't see that everyone had left."

"It's really strange. Never mind. I hope nothing happens. He's just a young kid."

The security guard shook his head, waved his hand, turned away, and returned to the pavilion outside the door to be on duty.

And somehow, Yan Huan always felt as if someone was watching him from behind.

Suddenly I turned around and saw countless curious eyes from my classmates in the campus behind me.
Yan Huan turned and left silently.

Didn’t you see that at a hidden edge of the teaching building, a strand of black hair was blown up by the breeze and then fell back to its original place briefly.

Standing in the shadow was Bai Yi, wearing a full set of equipment including a fisherman's hat, sunglasses, and a mask.

Not translucent, but the real her.

“Plop. Plop. Plop.”

At this moment, the girl in hiding had her heart beating fast and her mouth was frighteningly dry.

After all, this was the first time she was being looked for by the police, not to mention that she had countless super powers.
What if I don't care and end the effect and end up being exposed to the camera? Wouldn't that be as weird as a ghost?
If someone finds out
"Didi.dip"

Just when Bai Yi was worried that she would be arrested and investigated if she couldn't explain herself clearly, the sound of a clock like water drops suddenly rang, and words appeared in front of her eyes.

[Accumulated usage time: 3 minutes]

I've been using it continuously since last night, and the time is almost up.
It's only ten minutes a day, can't it be longer?

Even if we can accumulate time, it will inevitably be too little, right?

Bai Yi held the pocket watch in his hand, and his previous worries turned into simple questions in his mind.

It was at the moment when this thought came to mind that the air around me seemed to become even colder.
It seemed as if it was frozen.

"click"

[Congratulations, the level of the pocket watch has increased due to your continued use! ]

[Level 1 → 2]

[The daily indifference effect duration has been increased to 20 minutes! ]

[New feature obtained: Transparent human correction]

[Any unreasonable phenomena that may be discovered before or after you use the indifference effect will be corrected by the pocket watch. ]

[Corrections include but are not limited to cameras, mobile phones, cameras and other technological products or other recording methods. However, the naked eye of humans and animals will still detect the abnormality, so please be careful to ensure that the existence of the pocket watch is not exposed.]

Bai Yi's beautiful eyes hidden under the sunglasses gradually widened, and then, she watched the accumulated time limit suddenly increase by 20 minutes.
"."

She didn't say anything, and her face, covered by the mask, couldn't show any expression.

The only thing that could be seen was that her hand holding the pocket watch was tightening. As the sun gradually set, Yan Huan came out of the locker room with her schoolbag on her back, having already changed out of her PE uniform for volleyball class.

Sakuramiya Hitomi did not come back for her elective class in the afternoon because of the kitten named Mizuki at home, so she took a leave of absence in the afternoon.

Yan Huan bought a bottle of sports drink from the vending machine and drank it while walking to the class.

Just like Monday, there were few people in the teaching building, and it was quiet and peaceful.

Along the way, besides the shadows cast by the setting sun on the pillars, there was only the woman with a translucent mask standing in the corridor with her hands folded.
Wait a minute, something strange seems to have sneaked in?

The next moment he realized something was wrong, Yan Huan, who was drinking a sports drink, almost vomited it all out in one breath.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, perfect expression management was instantly activated.

He walked past the other person very naturally, and the girl next to him, whose face was covered tightly, just followed him with her eyes, not knowing what she wanted to do.

And isn’t it a bit too much time that this guy uses the modifier?
He must have heard it right in the exam room last Friday. The countdown was 15 minutes.
It should have been at least 15 minutes past noon today, how come it can still be used in the afternoon?
Hello, I am a parent and I want to report!

Please set up an anti-addiction system for the modifier, it has corrupted my Zi Han! !
Although he didn't know what Bai Yi wanted to do, Yan Huan realized that he had to play a card.

As he drank his drink, his expression became more natural, and he walked slowly towards Class A.

"."

Before they even reached the classroom, the 500 ml bottle of drink in Yan Huan's hand was already empty, leaving Bai Yi behind him dumbfounded.

Are you too thirsty?
You drank all that in one gulp?
She folded her hands and watched Yan Huan throw the empty bottle into the recyclable bin, and the dark thoughts from this afternoon once again emerged in her mind.

After a moment's silence, she quietly followed in his footsteps.

As the sun set, the two walked along the red corridor.

The shadow of one person was very long, while the other stood completely in the red light, as if she had turned into the shadow itself.

Yan Huan opened the classroom door and walked into the classroom. His desk by the window, which was splashed with paint, had been replaced after being reported to the school.

Are you here to pack up?

But isn’t he already carrying a schoolbag?

The next moment, Yan Huan had pulled open the newly replaced tables and chairs, revealing the wall covered by the tables.

There are still many traces of colorful paint on the wall.

Yan Huan just looked at the marks on the wall, then silently put down her schoolbag and took off her coat, revealing the black short T-shirt underneath.

He turned and walked out of the classroom, and soon came back with a wet rag and alcohol spray for disinfecting the toilet door.

As Bai Yi looked at him in confusion, Yan Huan slowly rolled up his sleeves.

First, he sprayed a line of alcohol on the paint on the wall, then squatted down and wiped the marks carefully with a wet rag.
This guy is actually cleaning the paint marks on the wall?

Bai Yi was slightly stunned, and his action of stepping forward to carry out his dark idea paused for a moment.

Because the paint had dried, it was quite difficult to wipe it off even with the help of alcohol, but Yan Huan wiped off the marks bit by bit very carefully.
And those marks were left inexplicably because of her hatred.

Maybe in his eyes, it was just like the girl in Class A, who thought she had encountered a supernatural event?

I was splashed with paint for no apparent reason, and had pebbles thrown at my window for no apparent reason.
"."

At this moment, Yan Huan, who was wiping the tiles, suddenly thought of something and took out his cell phone.

The brand of mobile phone he uses is average, although because smartphones have been very popular in recent years, there are many cost-effective models, so it is not too shabby.
But his model does look like it has been used for a long time.

Bai Yi knows a lot about electronic products.

But he dialed a phone call, then tilted his head and clamped the phone between his ear and shoulder.

"beep"

"Sister Tong, it's me. Um, I'll be working in the store a little later tonight."

".Well, I have something to deal with at school first. I think I will miss the school bus, so I have to take another bus back."

"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."

While smiling like this, she called her part-time job to ask for leave, while at the same time cleaning the paint on the wall with a rag.

Only Tong Yingying, who was lying on the bed on the second floor of the pub with sleepy eyes, was left holding the phone, confused.

Ok?
What's wrong with this kid?

Why are you being so polite all of a sudden?
Could it be that I am dreaming?

I must have been sleepy.
"Yeah. Yeah."

Tong Yingying thought she was dreaming, so she casually agreed to a few words and hung up the phone.

Then, she scratched her belly that was exposed between her pajamas and pajamas, turned over, hugged her pillow and went back to sleep.
At this moment, in the A-class classroom of Totsuki.

Listening to Yan Huan's voice on the phone, Bai Yi realized that the rumors she had heard once or twice when she came to school were actually true.
Yan Huan, the student union president of Yuanyue College, a popular person, is actually working to make a living?

Even being late for work requires a grovelling apology to the boss.
Seeing this scene, Bai Yi suddenly felt a sense of superiority in his heart.

I have participated in many variety shows and filmed movies over the years, and I am quite famous.

She earned a lot of money for the family, and the clothes she wore, the things she used, and the place she lived in were all very nice.
So what if his mother said he was so smart and hardworking?
So what if the leader of the station takes a liking to me at first sight?
Even if you look
Maybe, probably, maybe
It's very good.

Don’t we still have to struggle so hard for life?
Bai Yi thought so and watched Yan Huan hang up the phone.

I watched him put his phone into his pocket, but he yawned as if he couldn't hide his fatigue.

Even so, he continued to carefully clean the paint on the wall bit by bit, without any annoyance.
Looking at him like this, the sense of superiority in Bai Yi's heart seemed like fireworks, which bloomed but could not be maintained for long.

She will never be discovered by anyone when she is not covered up, so she is the most authentic self in this state.
That despicable sense of superiority was more like a spring that had been compressed for a long time and suddenly released, just like the anger that prompted her to act impulsively.

As long as you think about it rationally, you can understand that you and Yan Huan have no intersection at all.

From his perspective, he probably didn't do anything to be treated like this.

I have to study hard, deal with the many chores of the student union, and work after school to make a living.
He was still being entangled in "supernatural events" for no reason, so that at this moment he quietly came back after school to clean up the traces of colored paint.
This is indeed Bai Yi's fault.

The principles of economics assume that everyone is rational and that everyone will choose the most reasonable option when making a choice.

But the reality is that it is impossible for people to remain rational all the time.

Especially when you are compared with someone day and night, and told that he is better than you, he is more hardworking than you, he is more valuable than you
Of course you will hate the person who compares you to him.

But it is difficult to escape, and a sense of disgust and resistance towards him wells up in the deepest part of my heart.

Especially when you have a pocket watch that can put you in a state of not caring
It is a magnifying glass, a tool that silently magnifies filth.

But the reality is also that it is impossible for people to be irrational all the time.

Such as this moment.

Bai Yi, who was in a state of indifference, opened his mouth slightly, but the dirty plan he originally wanted to carry out was always difficult to start.

Yes
Don’t I hate the route arranged by my mother and agent the most?
"With such good conditions, of course we must seize the advantage and grab the market of attractive fans."

That’s why I’ve always wanted to write songs and create.

But when you see that the other person has the same or even better appearance as you but has not taken this path, you instead feel superior because of the status you have achieved through your looks?
Bai Yi felt regret, jealousy and confusion at the same time.

She regretted that she had used the modifier to do this to the innocent him whose current situation she had previously ridiculed so superiorly.

What made her jealous was that she seemed to really understand what her mother said and realized his hard work and excellence.

People cannot teach people well; things can teach people well once they are taught.

But why should she meet such a person?

If I have memories, how can I be happy?

Bai Yi clenched her teeth and clenched her fists.

And finally she wondered
He had already been spotted by the leaders of the station, so why would he rather suffer so much now than go?

Anyway, at least it's easier than it is now, right?

It's really curious
Are you really so good and hardworking, or...

Then let me take another look at what is going on with you that my mother has been talking about in my ears.
"Phew, it's finally done."

After a long while, Yan Huan finally wiped the paint off the tiles.

He took a deep breath, stood up, and patted his palms that were stained with the strong smell of alcohol.

Then he turned around and pretended to pack up and leave.

In fact, he wanted to confirm the condition of Bai Yi behind him.

However, when he looked around, the classroom was empty and there was no trace of the girl.
"."

Well, it looks like this wave of attacks has been temporarily resolved.

Yan Huan rubbed his wrist and glanced at the time on his phone. It was time to leave for work.

He put on his schoolbag, but he didn't let his guard down at all.

Because he had a feeling that Bo Yi and him were not done yet.
