I'm not a hero, but I didn't say I couldn't beat you.

When woken up by the alarm clock, I turn off the alarm clock and then use the remote control next to the pillow to turn off the air conditioner that has been on all night.

He walked into the kitchen, filled half the pot of water, lit the fire, and then walked into the bathroom with his still unconscious consciousness and his daily habitual movements. After getting rid of the pain in his lower abdomen, he started to wash up with hazy eyes.

He slept deeply last night. It was a rare sleep without nightmares in the past few days. It could be said that he finally got a full mental rest.

Of course, it would be better if you don't have to go to school, but it's a pity that there is no if.

Fu'er felt that due to yesterday's series of events, he should need more time to repair his fragile nerves through sleep. Now he should call Boss Xie to ask for leave and have a good rest for the day.

But Boss Xie won't think so. Boss Xie will only think that he is acting like a monster.

Then use exams and scores to put more pressure on yourself.

Or just take him away and send him to see a psychiatrist.

Although Boss Xie is a very good person and had visited him before when he was really sick, but if he dared to fake his illness and deceive him, the consequences would not be solved by answering a few questions and standing at the door for a while.

Finally, with the stimulation of the cold water, Fu'er finally woke up and walked into the kitchen again to start making today's breakfast.

Noodles, ham sausage, and a little pickled mustard, which is very consistent with the habit of people in China having breakfast at home.

Holding a bowl of noodles, Fu'er walked back to the living room, turned on the TV, and slurred his noodles while watching the local news on the TV.

"Bah Liu - Bah Liu - what? The riot in the night market last night didn't make the news at all. I thought I could have some more fun."

Fu Er commented on the morning news while frowning.

"Bah Liu-and, Bah Liu-"

Seeing the relevant notice of the [Foreign Object Containment Association], Fuer couldn't help but think of the girl last night.

"I gave that necklace to your staff, but nothing about [distortion] or [abnormal characteristics] was detected. Is it because the funds approved by superiors to purchase equipment were buried in the middle? It’s been detained by the police!”

Due to last night's real experience, Fuer couldn't help but question their working conditions.

"Forget it, I can't say that. Maybe it's just that what I encountered is special...after all, it cannot be observed, and the detection of the instrument will probably not be an exception."

Fu'er thought about it carefully. In view of the serious attitude of the policemen responsible for the reception last night, he really felt that he couldn't beat everyone to death with one stick.

At least the vast majority of those staff are working to solve people's problems and ensure everyone's safety.

If you confuse those bureaucratic bugs with serious and responsible operators, wouldn't you be just as disgusting as those fat-bellied guys?

The news was still being broadcast, and the noodles in the bowl were almost finished. Fu'er, who was about to get up and put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen, glanced at the clock on the wall and calculated his remaining time.

The first class is at 8 o'clock. It's now 7:13. It's enough to take the subway for 20 minutes. It's still early. I can wash the dishes and put the dirty clothes in the washing machine later. I'll just dry them when I come back in the evening. Then at 7:[-] It was almost just the right time to go out.

Wait, why do I always feel like something is wrong?

While Fu'er was making arrangements for this morning's itinerary, he felt a little inconsistent.

What exactly made me feel that something was wrong?

By the way, did the news just now say that the subway has not been repaired yet?

If the subway is not repaired, won’t we have to take the bus to go to school?

The subway commute takes 20 minutes, and the bus commute takes at least 40 minutes, and can take as little as 1 hour.

And I am still far away from my first class at 8 o'clock...

45 minutes……

Then whose first class is today?

It's from Boss Xie...

send!

"Send! Send! Send! Send! Send!"

He hurriedly threw the dishes into the sink, squeezed in some dishwashing liquid, opened the faucet and put some water in. Although according to the current weather, if the dishes and chopsticks are not cleaned in time, there will be an unpleasant smell as microorganisms breed crazily for half a day, but it is too late for Fuer to do these housework!

He rushed into the room, changed his clothes, picked up his schoolbag, cell phone and other miscellaneous items, and then looked around to make sure he had nothing he forgot to bring.

Then, he saw the necklace on the table.

That token of Miss [Quantum Ghost] left for him.

"……………………"

Leave it at home or take it with you? Fu Er struggled for a moment, then picked up the necklace and put it into his pocket.

He is a man of his word. Since he has agreed to give the other party basic trust, he should be mentally prepared when he picks up the necklace instead of throwing it away.

Until you see the ghost lady named Sylvia next time, keep this necklace with you.

Maybe, from here, your life will change drastically?

Fu'er was a little afraid of this.

But fear is fear, and classes still have to be attended. This is the so-called high school student.

Picking up his schoolbag and going out, Fu Er stepped back into his most daily life.

"……………………"

But unfortunately, catching the bus early in the morning was not part of his daily routine during his two years of high school here.

When Fu'er was still 100 meters away from the bus stop, he watched helplessly as the bus with half a car full of people drove out of the bus stop.

Maybe those who were taken away at the same time also had the "hope" of being able to make it to the first class without being scolded by Mr. Xie.

send!

What to do? Isn't that what happens when people are unlucky?

Maybe this is his daily life? Anyway, just like the card-drawing game in Paper Player, non-chiefs are always unlucky wherever they are.

Fu'er sat on the waiting seat at the bus stop and glanced at the bus timetable on the mobile app. He had basically confirmed that he was at least half a class late for his first class.

So, since you are already destined to be late, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Rather than being anxious, it is better to think about how to explain to Boss Xie later so that you will suffer less torture.

Is it that there is a traffic jam on the road, or that the alarm clock is broken? Otherwise, I should just honestly say that I didn't notice that the subway was out of service and I was late.

Fu'er looked up at the sky, thinking about the explanation he would give to the class teacher's anger later.

"If only I hadn't forgotten that the subway was out of service...hey——"

I couldn't help but sigh to myself.

Then, I couldn't help but think of what happened yesterday.

"Wait a minute, if what Sylvia said is true, then I did bump into her at the intersection, and then picked up the necklace..."

Fuer thought.

"This means that there is nothing wrong with my memory at all, and I didn't suffer from heatstroke. So I handed the necklace to the policeman on duty in the police box, and then returned home."

"If she quietly followed me and threw the new necklace to me again, then why didn't anyone, including the surveillance records, find this record."

All records of what has happened, whether it is electronic devices or the memory of the person involved, have been erased. This is of course not normal.

At least the [Quantum Ghost] lady may not have the ability to interfere with reality at all, as she said.

Next time we meet, we must ask her carefully about this part of the problem. If this question cannot be resolved, then the premise of trust between them will not be established.

"Hey!--"

But how did the other party do it? Since neither the police of the containment team nor [Utopian Heart] Hartz were aware of her existence, and the detection of relevant equipment did not detect any problems, it is impossible for an existence that can distort reality to this extent to hide. It's only right to investigate them.

"Hey! Classmate!——"

Or was it actually detected, but was this fact also distorted by her?

"Hey! Big brother!!"

"Ah?? Ah??"

Suddenly being pulled back from his thoughts by a shout not far ahead, Fu'er was stunned for a moment, and then looked towards the source of the sound ahead.

A white family car was parked on the side of the road. A little girl in the back seat of the car was waving in her direction. The window in the front seat was rolled down, and another aunt was also waving to her.

It was the mother and daughter from last night.

"Classmate! What a coincidence! Do you live in this community? Where are you going! Let me give you a ride!"

The other party invited him like this.

Well, it seems that people will not remain non-chiefs forever~

After getting in the car, the little girl smiled and greeted Fu'er, and Fu'er also smiled and rubbed the other person's little head.

"Hanhai City No. 20 High School, right? It's pretty easy to get there. It'll be there in about [-] minutes."

The little girl's mother said as she drove the car.

"Thank you so much. I was prepared to be late."

"There's nothing to thank you for. You saved my daughter last night. I wanted to thank you properly, but suddenly the situation became chaotic last night. When it calmed down, I couldn't find you."

"By the way, I saw you were in a daze just now? Are you anxious to be late? Did you oversleep?"

Fu'er scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.

"Because I forgot that the subway line was closed for maintenance, I ended up going out late and missed the bus, so I just sat there in a daze."

"What time do you have class?"

"First class at eight o'clock"

"It's 7:42 now. If I drive faster, I should be able to catch up."

"Thank you so much."

"What's bothering you, brother? I think he's still not happy."

Perhaps it was a child's unique keen intuition, but the little girl sensed Ful's mood.

"Um………………"

"Tell me, maybe we can give you some help?"

"........."

"No, it's nothing. Big brother is not unhappy at all."

After hesitating for a moment, Fu'er still did not disclose the question about Sylvia in any way. Although I have become entangled with the other party, it is better for others not to have anything to do with these [abnormalities].

Even though the [Quantum Ghost] lady insisted that she was not abnormal.

Fu'er smiled, explained that he was just a little confused because he didn't wake up in the morning, and changed the topic.

The two of them and a little girl chatted wordlessly, and in a blink of an eye they arrived at the school gate.

"Okay, we're here, be careful on the road."

The little girl's mother parked the car and said.

"Thank you auntie."

"You're welcome."

"Come on! Big brother who is as brave as a hero!"

The little girl's eyes shone with excitement as she shouted and said goodbye to Fu'er with a smile.

"Well, goodbye! Xiao Yi!"

Although I hate so-called heroes, if it can make my children smile happily, what does it matter if I pretend to be a hero once or twice?

Fu'er thought so, said goodbye to his mother and daughter, and ran to the classroom.

Not late! All the best!
