"Tick-tock, tick-tock"
The continuous sound of rain filled Bai Yuze's ears. He opened his eyes and reached for his phone.
I have a vague feeling of unease all day, as if something is about to happen.
This is a kind of intuition, and it makes me feel very uncomfortable.
After washing up and preparing breakfast for his younger sister, Bai Yuze took an umbrella and went out. Today was Friday, and he only needed to attend one more day of school before the holiday.
It was raining heavily, so he didn't choose to ride the electric bike. When he bought it, he didn't think about making a small tent.
Thinking of this, he recalled the car Ning Zixuan had given him.
Thinking of cars reminds me of my good buddy, Ning Zixuan.
Bai Yuzhe was well aware of her intentions and knew she would most likely not agree, but he was very happy that she was coming back.
While he might not be able to protect his good brothers in other places, but in Yeqiu City, as long as the Abyss Gate doesn't open,
He can guarantee that the other party will be safe and sound.
However, this is not a perfect solution. The best option is to get away from Yeqiu City and go to the mountain city in the rear.
Before I knew it, the bus had arrived at its stop.
Bai Yuze opened his umbrella, got off the bus, walked out of the bus stop, and leisurely headed to school.
Along the way, I was surrounded by teachers giving lessons or high school seniors chattering away on their way to school.
As soon as he entered the campus, he encountered a young female teacher holding an umbrella. Even though she had become a teacher, she exuded a youthful and cheerful aura, which contrasted sharply with his lazy demeanor.
"Hoshino-sensei".
The female teacher paused, raised her umbrella, and looked this way.
A naive and puzzled face looked over, until Bai Yuze's figure came into view, and a slight smile appeared on her face. "Teacher Bai?"
As if remembering something, it took several seconds for the smile on his lips to fade slightly before the teacher reacted and greeted him.
Good morning, Teacher Bai.
Bai Yuze looked at Hoshino Seri's face; Hoshino-sensei gave him a strange feeling today.
There seemed to be a distance between the two, and the previous carefree and relaxed atmosphere was gone.
However, he didn't pay much attention and walked over to Hoshino Seri, somewhat puzzled: "Hoshino-sensei, you seem to be a little later than usual today."
Usually, when he takes the bus, Hoshino Seri has already prepared her lesson plans in her office.
"Really? Maybe you didn't get enough rest last night."
Hoshino Seri paused for a moment, then gave a soft explanation.
"Um... I'm very sorry, Hoshino-sensei."
"No...no, it's my own fault for not getting enough rest yesterday, it has nothing to do with Teacher Bai."
Raindrops fell one by one along the pointed corner of the umbrella.
The sound of rain, the sound of footsteps.
A silent silence was born between the two umbrellas.
The distance from the school gate to the classrooms and offices is not far. Upon entering the corridor, you can see several umbrellas placed outside, resembling blooming flowers.
Hoshino Seri had already entered the office, and Bai Yuze's unease did not lessen; on the contrary, it intensified.
Where is the problem?
School, home, nursing home...:
On his way from home to school, he didn't sense anything unusual; the clouds were gray, the sky was gloomy.
The torrential rain made the atmosphere particularly somber today.
He shook his head. Of all things, the education of students is the most important.
If all else fails, I'll check out CCSA and the news later when I have some time.
Let's see what exactly happened.
Upon entering the office, Hoshino Seri was already preparing her lesson plans, while Teacher Zhang seemed quite relaxed; she only had two classes today, which was great.
I'm scrolling through the news right now, having a great time.
Bai Yuze had barely sat down when he heard Teacher Zhang suddenly exclaim in surprise.
"My God, another beast attack occurred last night! More than a dozen houses collapsed in Guichun Garden, Guannan District, Yeqiu City. The number of injured is still being tallied."
The teachers were all stunned upon hearing this news.
A monster capable of causing more than a dozen houses to collapse is no ordinary disaster.
The last time such a terrible incident occurred was during the Moon Bay A Calamity Incident, which required the emergency deployment of most of the magical girls from Ye Qiu City.
It's no wonder they were so surprised and shocked when they heard the news.
Guannan District is not under the jurisdiction of the Jianlan Squad.
Its location is not as important as that of Changwu District.
Therefore, Bai Yuze did not receive any CCSA-related task notifications on his phone last night.
Bai Yuze opened his phone.
Begin searching for the location and time of this incident.
[A monster attack, multiple injuries, and suspected brutal murder of several women...]
The more he searched, the more uneasy he became.
He suddenly remembered that Ning Zixuan also seemed to live in Guannan District. Suppressing his unease, Bai Yuze walked out of the office, took out his phone, and started calling Ning Zixuan.
One minute..
Two minutes...
Bai Yuze had lost count of how many times he had heard the message, "Sorry! The user you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
Sorry! Thesubscriberyyoudialedcannotbeconnectedforthe
moment, please redial later.
Thinking it over, he dialed another person's number again, and the call was answered quickly.
"Hey, Brother Bai, what's up?"
The noise from Ning Yuxuan's side was quite loud, like it was coming from a bar or karaoke room.
"I can't get through to your sister's phone. Could you try calling her? Did she block me in a fit of anger last night?"
Bai Yuzhe suppressed his unease and made a joke.
"Haha, Brother Bai, don't you know my sister? She could block all of our family's phone numbers, but she wouldn't block yours. Wait a moment, I'll try making a call."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuzhe felt not joy, but even more apprehensive. Could something have really happened to Ning Zixuan?
Soon, Ning Yuxuan replied that he couldn't get through and no one answered.
At this moment, his unease was finally confirmed.
Ning Zixuan had an accident!
His hands trembled slightly, and every breath he exhaled was hot.
Shhh!
After quickly asking Ning Zixuan's home address,
He abruptly rushed back to his office, shoving his chair aside: "Mr. Hoshino, could you please ask the head of student affairs for me to have a day off? I have something to do!"
After saying that, Bai Yuze strode out of the office.
Hoshino Seri, who was standing next to him, was startled when she saw Bai Yuze's anxious and angry appearance. She looked at him in surprise. She had never seen this male teacher so angry in all the time she had known him. From the beginning of their relationship until now, she had never seen him so full of anger!
"Okay...okay."
Bai Yuze didn't even open an umbrella; he rushed out of the teaching building and ran alone in the torrential rain.
As Ye Qing brushed past the many students entering the school gate, including one who had just gotten out of a car, she looked at the figure running in the rain and couldn't help but feel curious. Judging from the person's height and appearance, they didn't seem like a student, but more like a parent or teacher.
But since parents are not allowed to enter Qiuyuan No.1 Middle School, it can only be teachers. What could possibly make a teacher disregard their image and run wildly in the rain?
It's quite intriguing, but he doesn't have the extra manpower to investigate such a trivial matter right now.
Gazing at the shimmering crimson crystal core in his hand, a flicker of longing and deep helplessness flashed in his deep, wolf-like eyes.
The rain was fine and continuous, like cow's hair.
Bai Yuze found the Mi SU7 in front of the "Inkmark" teahouse, put the car key in, and roared off into the street. He never thought that one day he would be causing a disturbance in the street, let alone that he would be driving without a license.
He has always been a person who follows the rules.
He didn't understand why he was so worried about the other person. In the past few years, the two of them had barely even talked on the phone, and their only physical contact was when they were children and yesterday.
But right now, he felt his heart was beating incredibly fast, and all the blood in his body was rushing to his head, making his mind buzz and go completely blank.
Raindrops outside the car window covered the windshield, and the wipers couldn't keep up with the speed at which the raindrops fell.
The car was still accelerating, the accelerator was floored. At this speed, any accident in the heavy rain would be suicidal, even in the sparsely populated suburbs.
Even on the ground, there were scenes of humans falling into demonic possession.
