Empire Mecha Builder

Wan Li took off his glasses, rubbed his sore eye sockets from overuse, gently brushed aside the sketchbook on the desk, tidied up and was ready to go home.

"Mr. Jiang, let's have dinner tonight, shall we go together?" The female teacher at the next table knocked lightly on the partition, and said to Wan Li with a smile while holding a cup of coffee.

Wan Li smiled and said: "No, I have an appointment with someone else tonight, you go."

After finishing speaking, Wan Li simply tidied up his desk, got up and left the office, shutting the slight discussions of his colleagues behind the door.Wan Li lied, he didn't have a date at all at night, and he didn't reject his colleague's kindness because he had more important things to do.In fact, Wan Li is exactly the kind of person who wants to pretend that he doesn't know his students and colleagues as soon as he leaves the school gate.

Wan Li rolled out his own road bike and pedaled slowly in the school, thinking about what to eat for dinner in his mind.In summer, the warm breeze blows his forehead hair, revealing the smooth and delicate skin between the eyebrows.Wan Li looked at a big tree not far away and applied the brakes.Squatting under the tree was a teenager in school uniform. He looked like a wet puppy, squatting in the shade with his head lowered, his shoulders shrugged slightly, as if crying.

Wan Li looked at it for a while, took two steps forward, and stopped again.

He turned his head to look at the pale side of the young man, then looked at the school gate not far away, sighed softly, walked up to the young man on his bicycle, and whispered, "You Le?"

The boy raised his head, like a frightened rabbit, his eyes were red, his body was soaked, and the tips of his hair were still dripping water. After seeing Wan Li, he said in a weak cry, "Teacher..."

Wan Li frowned habitually, and it turned out to be a student in his class, "Why did you do this? Are you being bullied? Go home and change your clothes."

"Teacher... I don't seem to be able to go back..." You Le said sobbingly.His appearance is very handsome, with a kind of gentle and beautiful like a girl, and his wet temples stick to his face, showing a more vulnerable taste.

Wan Li didn't understand what he meant, and didn't intend to ask. He was a little cold in his heart. Even though he was You Le's teacher, he was only an art teacher. Wan Li subconsciously felt that this kind of matter should be handled by the class teacher.

"I'll call for you and ask your father to pick you up." Wan Li took out his mobile phone, because there is usually an art homework for You Le, and You Le's father intends to train him in this area, and he also left a call for Wan Li.

You Le didn't speak.

While looking for You Le's father's number, Wan Li found a tissue and handed it to You Le, asking him to wipe the water off his face.

The number hasn't been found yet, the female teacher who invited Wanli to dinner before came over with her bag, and said in a clear voice: "Mr. Jiang? I've been watching you since just now, and you are talking to yourself with your mobile phone here What, like a child."

Wan Li was taken aback, his colleague said in a half-joking tone and stood beside him, Wan Li looked at the embarrassed You Yue, and his whole body slowly became stiff from the back.

You Le hugged his knees, shivering, and stared at Wan Li intently.

After a long time, Wan Li breathed out a breath of panic without a trace, and said with a light smile, "It's nothing, I'm leaving now."

The female colleague nodded, waved to Wan Li, turned around and left.

Wan Li put his eyes on You Yue again, and the two looked at each other quietly.

You Le said anxiously: "Teacher, why can you see me?"

Without answering, Wan Li asked instead, "What happened?"

You Le's lips sank, and he looked like he was about to cry, and he said aggrievedly: "Teacher, I think... I might die."

In the afternoon, he played in the art class and made trouble for him in class. How could he become a ghost in just a few hours? !Wan Li was immediately shocked, and stopped asking You Le any more, and quickly contacted the director and several school workers to salvage the artificial lake in the school.You Le followed Wan Li like a wet puppy.

According to You Le, he was just sketching by the lake, but he was pushed from behind by someone. You Le can't swim, so whoever pushed him made him hiccup.

As the sky darkened, an hour later, the janitor dragged the body of a drowned student from the lake. Wan Li saw the pale face and recognized it as You Le.

You Le yelled loudly, hid behind Wan Li, pointed at his dead body and screamed repeatedly: "Ah! Dead body! Teacher is so scary!"

"That's your body! What's your name!" Wan Li yelled in a low voice, and walked over to whisper something to the director whose face changed greatly in fright.

Drowning people usually die very ugly, so You Le refused to look at his body carefully, and hurriedly followed Wan Li without touching the ground, panicking, dragging a wet trace along the way.

The police soon arrive, along with Joy's parents.

Wanli stood far away, watching You Le rushing away from him, bouncing up and down in front of his crying parents: "Dad, Mom! I'm here! Look, look! I'm here! Mom, stop crying , Mom..." You Le sobbed again while talking.

Wan Li squeezed the space between his eyebrows and remained silent.You Le's parents naturally couldn't see the son who had become a ghost, so they cried in grief.It didn't take long for You Le to collapse, and walked to Wan Li with drooping ears, raised his face and asked innocently: "Teacher, why can you see me, but my parents can't see me?"

Wan Li looked at the tears in his eyes indifferently, and did not answer, and it was not convenient for him to speak because there were so many people here.

Because Wan Li was the first to say that there was a problem in the lake, the police turned on the recording device and asked him for details. Of course, the possibility of Wan Li being the murderer cannot be ruled out.However, because of the school's video evidence, Wan Li went straight into the office after class, and there was no time to commit crimes. After finishing the transcript, Wan Li had nothing to do.

Wan Li pushes his bicycle and walks home in the dark, followed by a ghost.

"When do you want to stay with me?" Wan Li said.

While taking notes in Wanli squatting office, You Le Piao went home and wandered around, without exception, no one could see him.You Le lowered his head and said slowly: "They can't see me... Teacher, I am very scared, please stay with me."

"You will be accompanied by Ah Piao, you don't need me." Wan Li's voice was lukewarm.

You Le hugged his arms tightly, still dripping water all over his body, and said with a pale face: "It's late at night, teacher, don't say such things! My brother often says that things like Ah Piao are evil! You can speak freely, you really know A Piao is here to find you!"

Wan Li said helplessly: "You yourself are a Piao." Besides, he has met so few A Piao over the years.

You Le obviously couldn't adapt to the new identity of "wild ghost", and said awkwardly: "Speaking of which, teacher, do you have mana or something? Why can you see me?"

Wan Li was quiet for a while, then said softly: "Not everyone can see ghosts, and not everyone can become ghosts after death. It's as simple as that."

"Teacher, you are so cool, so you have the ability to see ghosts so cool." You Le wiped the drops of water on his eyelashes.

"Do you think it's cool?" Wan Li looked at him and said, "This kind of ability is not what I want. Congratulations, you can also see ghosts from now on."

You Le stood there in a daze for a while, Wan Li pushed the cart forward without waiting for him, the darkness wrapped around him, and a gust of wind blew by, You Le shivered suddenly, screaming and chasing after him: "Teacher! Teacher, you Wait for me! I'm afraid of ghosts!"

"Why don't you go home?" Wan Li pushed the bicycle into the warehouse downstairs, and went upstairs with the key in hand.

You Le walked into the elevator with him, and said with a sad face: "I don't want to go back for now... You know, I just died, the atmosphere at home... I don't want to see my parents so sad."

Wan Li was noncommittal, opened the door, walked in and closed it casually, and walked past the door while changing shoes in the porch. One second he was crying, and the next second he shouted in surprise: "It's so cool! Teacher, look! I have the wall penetration technique!"

"You'll get used to it in the future." Wan Li walked into the living room without looking back, walked around to the kitchen, put the bicycle keys on the bar, opened the refrigerator and thought about what to have for dinner.

You Le followed in wetly, squeezed his clothes uncomfortably, frowned and said, "Teacher, why am I dripping wet all the time? It's so uncomfortable, will the hair dryer help me?"

"It's useless, you can only keep like this in the future." Wan Li said.

You Le was struck by a thunderbolt, and his whole body was in a bad mood, like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

Wan Li ignored him and prepared a simple dinner for himself.Wan Li has always lived alone, but he has never made any progress in cooking. He only knows some simple home-cooked dishes, and he doesn't even know how to fry meat.You Le stood aside and watched Wan Li eat quietly, feeling sorry for him, "Teacher, do you eat this at night? No wonder you are so thin, you should eat more. My brother prepares a meal for me every time I go home on weekends. The dishes on the big table..."

After meeting Wanli's slightly impatient gaze, You Le closed his mouth wisely.

Wan Li's skill in ignoring people is very high, You Le just stood beside him in the image of a drowned ghost in such a wet state, staring straight at him, and he can slowly and methodically eat a plate of scrambled eggs without changing his face Sweep into the stomach.

"Teacher, are you going to sleep?" After dinner, Wan Li read a book and was ready to go to bed. As soon as he lay down, You Le passed his head through the door and looked at him with blinking eyes.

"Yes, you can do whatever you want. If you want to leave, you don't need to deliberately wake me up." Wan Li turned on the light, and the room was plunged into gloomy darkness.

You Le came in and said, "Teacher, can I sleep in your bedroom? It's so dark outside..."

Wan Li said, "As you wish."

Wagging his tail like a play puppy, he walked around Wanli's bedroom, and finally curled up on the carpet next to a single sofa and gently closed his eyes.Ghosts also need to rest. After wandering around for most of the night, You Le is really sleepy.

Wan Li has been very quiet all the time, and there is no movement after lying down.His eyelashes are very long, and when there is light, they will cast a crow-blue arc under the eyelids. His long eyebrows fly slantingly, and he has a pair of perfect facial features. I don’t know how many girls in the school like him, but he is a little cold , even if he looks good, people don't want to get close to him.

At three o'clock in the morning, Wan Li was awakened by the faint sound of thunder.

He sleeps very lightly, and will wake up when there is a sound, and once he wakes up that night, he can't fall asleep again.Wan Li lay on his side on the bed, listening to the patter of rain outside, his eyes fell on You Yue who was huddled in the corner.He seemed to have run around against the rain outside, curled up like a soaked rag, fast asleep.

Wan Li sighed silently, he also felt sad and regretful that You Le had become a ghost like this.
