[Jinjiang Exclusive] Talents are plentiful in Panyuan Town
Looking at these four short words, Luo Shiqin fell into an unspeakable silence.
Hmm... that's exactly what Xu Wenwen would say.
Unlike her pen pal Mei Huayue, Xu Wenwen is also face-blind, but to a more serious degree than Mei Huayue—she really relies entirely on their hairstyle and small movements to identify people.
Pen pals don’t want to socialize, have slight social disabilities, and rarely come into contact with people, so it takes a lot of time to recognize people. This is different from Xu Wenwen’s face blindness.
Luo Shiqin's comment: A very Xu Wenwen answer.
[… “Teacher,” the moment Xu Wenwen called the female student who had saved her life, her face froze, “Have you forgotten my name again?”
Xu Wenwen said honestly: "I'm sorry, classmate, how about you introduce yourself again?"
The female student looked at her in silence, as if she had not expected that Teacher Xu would be so straightforward.
This idiot is too straightforward.
Luo Shiqin took a deep breath and tilted her head to glance at her best friend who was sleeping soundly in the passenger seat.
[“The teacher can’t remember it anyway, right?” The female student laughed again, skipping the topic without caring, and then whispered, “Teacher, you reminded me last time that next time you come to check on us, you must let me call your friend. Can I make the call now?”
Last time? Called a friend?
Xu Wenwen was confused by this and spoke in a daze: "What last time? What phone call? To which friend?"
The female student was also confused: "Yes, a friend named Luo Shiqin. You told us when you came to check the dormitory last time. We must remind you next time we check the dormitory."
But how could she come to check the dormitories at night? Xu Wenwen lived off campus, so the dormitory inspection was done by the dormitory teacher at night.
Xu Wenwen had a feeling that something was wrong, and her intuition was accurate most of the time.
The dim light of the mobile phone screen in his hand finally went out. In the darkness, Xu Wenwen looked in the direction of the female student.
Her intuition told her that
"Okay, I'll call now." Xu Wenwen shrugged, then looked out the dark corridor with caution, then turned on his phone and opened the contact interface, "But I don't think I can get through."
The clock on the phone was still stopped at 19:15 and refused to move back even one second.
She pressed the profile picture of her best friend Luo Shiqin without any hope, but to her surprise, the call actually went through!
Less than a second after the phone rang, the call was connected.
But what Xu Wenwen didn't expect was that his voice uncontrollably shouted at the person on the other end of the phone.
"Shiqin, I seem to have been kidnapped! Call the police immediately, I'm in the girls' dormitory of Misty Middle School! I——"
"Teacher," the girl said, "the phone was disconnected."
Her voice was so sweet and calm that it calmed Xu Wenwen's heated mind.
What happened? Why did she suddenly shout out such a sentence? The monster that chased her before might still be around, but... just now it was indeed her instinctive reaction.
Wait, her first instinct is to ask Shiqin for help? ?
This is a bit too outrageous...
"The teacher's voice is as loud as it was a few days ago," there were murmurs from all around, "It looks like it's really Teacher Xu."
The female students in this dormitory seemed to be as awake as the female student who saved her life, but Xu Wenwen could not ignore their mutterings.
"What do you mean a few days ago? Have I been here a few days ago?"
She poked at the lit screen for a long time, but the call never came out again. Xu Wenwen had no choice but to change the topic to the issue that he was most familiar with at the moment.
Female student: "Well, the teacher came to check the dorms on Friday, and I screamed very loudly when the dormitory teacher chased me."
Xu Wenwen's pupils trembled. She intuitively felt that the dormitory teacher the other party was talking about was the two-meter-tall monster she had encountered before.
"Then Teacher Xu ran to our dormitory and got under my quilt, thus avoiding the dormitory teacher."
The female student sighed: "I didn't expect that this time I would take the initiative to pull Teacher Xu into the bed."
Even Xu Wenwen, a natural idiot, felt that something was wrong with this statement. She opened her mouth weakly and tried to refute something, but when she thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was the fact, and only some details were simplified.
But, you're coming to check on the dormitory on Friday?
"Today is Sunday, which means I came to check the girls' dormitory the night before yesterday?" Xu Wenwen couldn't believe it. "Why don't I remember it? Am I suffering from juvenile dementia?"
The female student sitting next to her asked in confusion: "Teacher Xu, today is Friday?"
Xu Wenwen slowly typed a question mark: "Friday? Then I checked the girls' dormitory last Friday night?"
"No, Teacher Xu, it was the day before yesterday."
Before Xu Wenwen fell into self-doubt, the female student kindly explained to her: "Teacher Xu, have you forgotten? There are only three days in a week. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. And then it's Friday again?"
Xu Wenwen even fantasized about it.
If the world really had this kind of schedule, then workers would definitely go crazy.
Wait, don't be led astray!
Xu Wenwen rubbed his forehead, trying hard to sort out this relationship.
"Today is not Sunday, it's Friday." She asked, "What day is it today?"
The female student answered obediently: "Today is June 16th."
She thought for a moment and added, "Teacher, there are only three days in a month, June 16, June 17, and June 18."
Xu Wenwen thought that the workers were ecstatic again.
No, no.
Teacher Xu criticized himself harshly, then stroked his chin to sort out this relationship.
"So that's how it is," she suddenly realized, tapping her palms and whispering, "Have I come to a different dimension?"
As a close friend of a novelist, Xu Wenwen often heard different novel settings from Luo Shiqin.
"This sounds a bit like..." She frowned and thought carefully, then said, "Time loop?"
But the difference is that the students seem to have memories in the loop, but she is different.
Moreover, the students no longer seemed to be the students that Xu Wenwen had in mind.
She didn't see any familiar little movements on the students in Class 12 and 13 of Senior High School.
She can't even tell the troublemakers in the class apart now!
"So, I'm not actually in the first round now," she said, in a low voice and in disbelief, "I might be in the second, third, or even Nth round now?!"
Teacher Xu raised his hands and quickly touched his face and hair, making sure they were still the same familiar look, and then heaved a sigh of relief.
She is indeed her best friend.
Luo Shiqin exclaimed in praise when she saw this.
She is as sensitive to the novel's setting as I am.
[The female student and the other people in the dormitory looked at each other, seemingly not understanding what Teacher Xu meant by the first and second rounds.
Xu Wenwen connected the strange things she had experienced before with the setting of the novel and quickly figured out the current situation.
It seemed that she had figured out something from the previous episode, so she emphasized that the female students must call her best friend Luo Shiqin - as for why they called Shiqin, Xu Wenwen didn't know yet.
But her instinct told her that this was the right thing to do.
"Okay, let me first figure out what caused the time loop..." She muttered, then spoke softly, "A few days ago, I mean from June 16th to June 18th, what did I do? Do you remember?"
The female student nodded, and then became curious: "Yeah. Teacher, you asked me the same question last time. Teacher, are you really a juvenile dementia?"
Xu Wenwen: ...
"Oh, right, right." She had a dull expression and lifeless eyes. "But the teacher's stupidity is intermittent and does not affect teaching."
It would be better to say that every worker will be able to learn this skill without any guidance.
"The teacher came to watch us study on Friday night, and then checked our sleep at night. The next day, he checked our morning reading and it seemed that there was a conflict with the dean, but I didn't dare to look closely. At noon, the teacher went to a meeting, and then I never saw you again, Teacher Xu."
Xu asked with a frown: "What about number 18?"
The female student shook her head: "Teacher, you didn't show up on the 18th."
Xu Wenwen thought, this is not good, I haven't appeared for a day in this weird time loop, could I be on the 18th? ? 】
Number 18...
Luo Shiqin suddenly came back to her senses.
Her graduation ceremony was on June 17th. Although time stood still after entering the foggy town, as long as she estimated the time by simply looking at the moon in the sky, she could tell that it was past midnight.
So, now it is June 18th.
The latest update of "Lucky Fool" that Luo Shiqin is seeing now is only the day before yesterday from Xu Wenwen's perspective.
She quickly scrolled down the screen and saw what happened before Xu Wenwen fell into a coma.
[…In front of all the teachers who couldn’t remember people’s faces, Xu Wenwen took advantage of the fact that time would be in her hands, jumped onto the conference table, pointed at the principal and started to scold him. Later, whoever came up to persuade her would be scolded by her.
Not satisfied after scolding everyone, Xu Wenwen looked around and regrettably couldn't find a razor to shave the students' hair, otherwise he would have given the principal's wig a SPA as well.
All the teachers wore smiling masks but looked at her with extreme vigilance.
As for the principal sitting in the front row—ha! What kind of principal is he!
The monster sat on the chair with a fake smile on his face. He raised his hand and pointed at her with trembling hands. After a long while, he screamed, "Catch her and throw her into the cafeteria!!!"
Xu Wenwen, who was known for his big mouth, failed to develop into a hexagonal warrior. Teacher Xu, who did not activate his skills of keeping an eye on all directions and listening carefully, was successfully ambushed by the "dean of studies".
Darkness descended upon her once again, dragging her into the endless mist of time loops.
until--
"Um...what time is it?"
The girl woke up from her bed in a daze and looked at her phone. The pointer pointed to 18:30.
It's not time yet.
She got up dazedly and went into the bathroom, looking at her shiny hair in the mirror.
How about washing your hair before evening self-study?
Hiss...strange, why does my head hurt so much?
[To be continued]
This is the content of the latest chapter update.
Here, Xu Wenwen's time loops again.
But the question is, Wenwen fainted during the meeting at noon on the 17th, so why did Luo Shiqin see her sleeping soundly in the early morning of the 18th?
She confirmed the tightly tied bandage on her face, then tentatively reached out to push the dreaming Xu Wenwen.
...If her best friend hadn't been still breathing, Luo Shiqin would have almost thought she had passed away.
Not awake at all?!
So, was Mr. Xu, who did not appear in the classroom of Class 3, Grade 2 of Misty Middle School on the 18th, still in a coma? !
Obviously, the key to causing the time loop is not Xu Wenwen's coma - what could it be?
Could it be someone else?
Xu Wenwen may have gone through the cycle many times, but Luo Shiqin was able to confirm that she and the other "players" who came in with her were in the first round.
So the key to the time loop can't be them, so who could it be?
Who is the most suspicious in this endless cycle of time?
I might fix it tomorrow~
