"I dealt with the nurse who attacked you, and also checked to see if anyone else was infected with the parasite." Uncle Liu said slowly, "As for your parents in this world, although they were also infected, they met you less frequently, so it's not serious."

The true identity of that nurse is actually He Kaiyan’s neighbor in this world.

When He Kaiyan was very young, his father and mother often asked their neighbors to look after him. Over time, he became good friends with the older sister next door.

Not only does the neighbor sister not despise He Kaiyan's shortcomings, she also teaches him to play badminton, accompanies him to ride a bike and watch TV. She can be said to be one of the few friends of little He Kaiyan.

Later, the neighbor's sister went to another city to attend college, and the two rarely contacted each other.

This time it happened to be a holiday, so the nurse went home to visit her relatives and accompanied her parents to the Sunday antique market, where she happened to pass by He Kaiyan.

It was at that moment that the parasite in her brain exploded.

In fact, she didn't know what she was doing. As if she was being controlled by someone, she walked to the hospital unconsciously and attacked the nurse who was taking care of He Kaiyan.

And because of the negligence of the security guard that day, she successfully sneaked into He Kaiyan's ward.

And when Uncle Liu said the word "deal with", it already explained her fate.

As long as she didn't meet He Kaiyan in person, she could live like a normal person, but once the parasite broke out, she could no longer be called a human being.

Uncle Liu also commissioned someone from the laboratory to conduct an experiment. As long as He Kaiyan spent no more than half an hour face to face, the parasite could still be killed by drugs.

However, if it exceeds fifty-three minutes, the parasite's reproduction rate will increase exponentially and it will frantically attack the human frontal lobe and central nervous system.

So much so that after the nurse was fully infected, she not only developed a desire to attack He Kaiyan, but also had the potential to attack other humans.

Uncle Liu and his colleagues first spent two days investigating all the people who were close to He Kaiyan.

Because He Kaiyan in this world is very introverted and doesn't have many friends, there are a total of more than 30 people who may be at risk of infection, which is much smaller than the number they expected.

Then, Uncle Liu distributed parasite-inhibiting drugs to them, killing the dormant parasites in their bodies first, thus avoiding the possibility of an outbreak of the disease.

"It's just..." Uncle Liu frowned, "Your parents have met you, and the time you spent together exceeded the safe range. Although they are not as bad as that nurse, you will never see each other again in your life."

He Kaiyan was relieved instead. He was not the He couple's son, and he didn't want to live with a pair of strangers.

However, he was still a little curious about how Uncle Liu had managed to prevent He's father and mother from ever meeting each other again.

Hearing his question, Uncle Liu patiently answered: "There is a kind of electronic anklet abroad that is installed on some prisoners who are released from prison. Whenever those prisoners enter a public place, the anklet will make a beeping sound."

Of course, Uncle Liu couldn't put shackles on two innocent people, so he imitated the principle of shackles and cast a small spell on them both.

This spell will not affect their daily life. Only when they detect that He Kaiyan appears near them, the couple will have the urge to stay away.

Looking back on the time he lived in the villa with Uncle Liu, those were probably the most relaxing and happiest days in He Kaiyan's life.

Although there are many evil spirits in the villa, they dare not show up casually due to Uncle Liu's majesty.

After more than a month, He Kaiyan's health had almost recovered, and Uncle Liu arranged for him to be readmitted to school.

In order to avoid complications, He Kaiyan did not go to his original school, but transferred to another middle school.

Here he met an unexpected person.

"Xiao Mo."

Before I knew it, that familiar figure had disappeared in the vast crowd.

He Kaiyan rushed over, but it was during the break and there were too many students going up and down the stairs, so he couldn't squeeze through.

"What's going on…is that really Xiao Mo? Or, or am I hallucinating?" He talked to himself in disbelief.

Soon, He Kaiyan perked up again.

Today is his first day at school. He can't enter the classroom covered in dust and dirt. He must leave a good impression on his teachers and classmates as he usually does.

Thinking of this, He Kaiyan took a deep breath and walked into the classroom.

"Oh, you are the new student, right? Let me see... Your name is He Kaiyan? What a nice name." The teacher pointed to the only empty seat in the classroom, "You can sit there first. After my next monthly exam, you can choose the place you like."

He Kaiyan's eyes were full of confusion. He took a few steps forward and asked tentatively, "Teacher Xiao Ni?"

"You recognize me?" Teacher Ni was also slightly stunned. "You also know my nickname. Do you know that classmate in our class? Did he tell you?"

He Kaiyan shook his head blankly and whispered, "No."

He lowered his head, walked quickly to his seat, and looked around.

In his original world, his homeroom teacher was "Teacher Xiao Ni" and his seat was indeed this one.

In addition, he just saw someone who looked very much like Xiao Mo, and an incredible thought came to his mind.

Could it be that this class is the same as my previous class?

While Teacher Ni was marking homework, He Kaiyan secretly picked up his deskmate's notebook.

Turning to the first page, there were three neatly written words: "Mo Xinran."

It’s Xiao Mo’s name.

In other words, his deskmate after transferring to another school was still "Xiao Mo".

In an instant, it was as if an iron ball hit He Kaiyan's head hard, shattering all his ability to think.

This is definitely not a coincidence. Although He Kaiyan told Uncle Liu about his own experience, he did not mention Xiao Mo.

"This is so strange... This is so strange, something is wrong..."

Teacher Xiao Ni heard his whisper and asked gently, "Hmm? What did you say?"

Unexpectedly, He Kaiyan stood up shakily and ran out recklessly, not caring how many desks and chairs he knocked over.

The students on the playground were doing their morning exercises in an orderly manner, the broadcast was echoing throughout the campus, and He Kaiyan only wanted to confirm one thing at this moment.

He quickly locked onto the location of his class, his eyes scanning each person's face.

Everyone is so familiar to him, he even knows everyone's name, student number, who lives near the school, who likes to hold birthday parties, who is the Chinese class representative... he knows it all clearly.

He should have thought of it earlier. If there is a He father and a He mother, and a He Kaiyan in this world, then there must be other people he knows.

If he gets the diamond from Xiao Mo, can he go home?

Crazy thoughts kept rolling through his mind, so much so that he didn't even realize that the morning exercises were over.

He followed the crowd and returned to the classroom like a zombie, then stared at the door.

Naturally, he has only one target, and that is Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo was the last one to enter the classroom. He seemed a little surprised to see there was another person next to him, but quickly extended his hand to He Kaiyan.

"Hello, my name is Mo Xinran, you can call me 'Xiao Mo'." He said generously.

He Kaiyan held his hand, but was thinking about something else - this Xiao Mo seemed to be more outgoing and cheerful than the Xiao Mo he knew.

"Hello, I'm He Kaiyan." He Kaiyan replied.

Xiao Mo smiled and asked, "Kai Yan? Which two words are they? Can you write them down?"

He Kaiyan wrote the name on the paper. He took a quick glance and saw that Xiao Mo was indeed wearing a rope of the same color around his neck.

"Your name is really nice. Are your parents cultured people?" Xiao Mo turned his head and said, "By the way, you like..."

"Ahem, class has started, everyone sit down!"

Xiao Mo had no choice but to sit up straight, but still couldn't help whispering: "This man is our physics teacher. He usually has a stern face and his last name is 'Bao', so we all call him 'Judge Bao'."

The teacher on the podium was dark-skinned and fat. He was wearing a black velvet shirt. He looked really like Bao Zheng in the TV series, who was dressed in official uniform and serious.

After a class, He Kaiyan didn't hear anything. He just felt that the teacher was like an annoying fly, with his voice lingering around.

"New guy, come to my office after class!"

Teacher Bao walked out holding a large triangle ruler, while Xiao Mo poked He Kaiyan's arm jokingly and said, "You're done. You must have been distracted and he noticed, so he asked you to go to his office. He scolds people fiercely, and several girls have been scolded to tears by him."

"When the time comes, I will just let it go in one ear and out the other." He Kaiyan also responded humorously.

On the way to the office, He Kaiyan suddenly discovered that the structure of the entire teaching building was 70% similar to that of his original world.

The only difference was that the doors of the two teaching buildings faced opposite directions, and his class was arranged on the other side of the corridor, like a mirror image.

He Kaiyan knocked on the door, and when he heard the teacher say "come in", he walked in.

To be honest, after experiencing so many strange and bizarre things, He Kaiyan has developed a heart of steel.

What he cares about most is how to return to his original world. No matter how much sacrifice he has to make, even if it means using any means necessary, he must go back.

It's not just about finding my parents, there's another reason.

That is, he could feel that the world was rejecting him.

It may sound unbelievable, but if you think about it carefully, the nurse infected with parasites and his inexplicably disappeared peace locket seem to indicate that this world does not welcome outsiders.

It’s as if He Kaiyan is a virus invading the human body, and the world will find ways to eliminate him and restore the world to its original state.

"You are the new student, right? Your name is..." Teacher Bao picked up the roll call book, "He Kaiyan, so I will call you Xiao He. You didn't seem to be paying attention in class just now, did you?"

He Kaiyan lowered his head and said, "Sorry, Mr. Bao, I may still be a little uncomfortable."

He thought that Mr. Bao, who was known for his seriousness, would scold him severely.

But when Teacher Bao opened his mouth, he was surprisingly gentle and even had a bit of sympathy.

He said, "It's okay, you don't have to explain to me. The teacher has read your information, and it's hard for you to accept this kind of thing. But people always have to look forward, right?"

"what?"

He Kaiyan was confused, but his bewilderment fell into Teacher Bao's eyes, and it seemed that he had misunderstood him again.

"Okay, I won't say any more to you. Try to adjust your state this week. I've talked to the other teachers. If you really feel uncomfortable, you can come to the teacher's office to chat, or come to me and I'll approve your leave." Teacher Bao continued, "Communicate more with your classmates. Your deskmate Xiao Mo is a good kid..."

He talked incessantly while He Kaiyan looked at the document on the table.

Although Mr. Bao kept covering his eyes with his hands, he became more and more engaged in what he said and couldn't help but start making gestures.

He Kaiyan also happened to see a line of small words following his name, "This student has just lost both his parents. Teachers, please pay more attention to his condition. If he is absent-minded or napping in class, please do not blame him."

It goes without saying that this must be a note written by Uncle Liu.

He was afraid that He Kaiyan had been through so many complicated things and suddenly returned to school, which might cause him to be unable to adjust his mental state.

However, He Kaiyan had already adjusted his mentality.

In his mind, he now had things he had to do, and as for those painful memories, they had been suppressed deep in his memory.

After talking passionately for a full twenty minutes, Teacher Bao finally stopped.

He waved his hand and said, "Ahem...Okay, okay, the teacher said he's tired. It won't delay your self-study. You can go back first. By the way, this book is for you. You can read it more."

"Okay, teacher." He Kaiyan nodded.

What Teacher Bao handed over was a hardcover edition of "How the Steel Was Tempered", and He Kaiyan was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He was about to walk out with the book in his hand when he inadvertently saw an office desk near the door.

It’s not that there is anything special about the table, but there is a photo frame on the table, and the woman in the photo is also an acquaintance of He Kaiyan - an English teacher.

However, in the original world, the English teacher loved dressing up and liked to wear red skirts or windbreakers, and she looked very charismatic.

But in this photo, she has a hunched back and can't even stretch her fingers when making the "V" sign, as if she is suffering from a long-term illness.

There was nothing left on her desk, only a few miscellaneous items scattered on it.

He Kaiyan was extremely confused, but he knew that if he asked other teachers, they would definitely not tell him the truth.

Teachers hate it most when students pry into their private affairs, so he can only start from other places.

After returning to the classroom, Xiao Mo worked on his exercise book seriously.

This class was a self-study class. Although the school did not have a rule prohibiting talking during self-study classes, everyone tacitly agreed to keep quiet as much as possible.

Even students who wanted to discuss the topic kept their voices low.
