Upon hearing this, the students drew out their voices and wailed incessantly.

Zhang Kuo remained calm. "Today is Thursday. The test results will be out tomorrow. There will be a parent-teacher conference next Monday. I'll give you two days to relax. How about that? Are you surprised?"

Ahhh, the teacher must have done this on purpose. The results will be out on Friday and there will be a parent-teacher meeting next week. Who can have a good time during the weekend?

In brackets, except for the top students, only these poor students dare not speak out.

This teacher is so abominable.

Jiang Qing lay on the table, feeling hopeless and about to die.

"Go back and discuss with the parents, and report the parent list to Lin Nanyan tomorrow. Remember to put the desks back in place before leaving." During exams, the desks are separated, but there are still students sitting at the same table in class, so the desks have to be merged and arranged neatly.

Looking at the pale-faced students, Zhang Kuo left with the test paper in satisfaction. He had to let these students know that human nature is treacherous, so that they would study hard in the final exam, and only if they studied hard could they get good grades.

As soon as he left, the whole Class 9 of Grade 2 was filled with the rustling sound of desks being dragged back and forth.

Jiang Qing sorted out the documents on the table and put them into her schoolbag, then pushed the table to the side and merged it with the table on the other side.

After she put the table and chairs together, she picked up her schoolbag and wanted to go home.

What happened today was really magical. As soon as I got back here, I started taking exams, memorizing, and then taking more exams. All kinds of symbols kept circling around my brain, and my mind is still a mess.

She felt she needed to take a breath, find a quiet place to sort out her thoughts, and re-employ her long-retired brain.

Before she could pick up her bag and leave, she saw figures scurrying back and forth beside her.

???

When I turned around, I saw that my classmates were all taking back their things.

The monthly exams at Gangwon First High School are different from the multi-school joint exams. The joint exams are very formal, requiring separate exam rooms and random changes of teaching buildings to prevent cheating. However, the monthly exams require students to take the exams in their respective classes. All arrangements are subject to individual teacher adjustments, which can sometimes seem quite informal.

In Class 9, all personal belongings are cleared out in advance during exam time and piled up in the open space at the back of the classroom. After the exam, these things need to be put back in place.

Jiang Qing also planned to retrieve her book, so she took a step forward and stopped.

Wait, the other students are putting their books on their desks, where are her books and her seat?

In the second year of high school, well, in the second year of high school, she and Lin Nanyan were deskmates.

Lin Nanyan, where is Lin Nanyan?

Standing on tiptoe and looking across the bustling crowd, Lin Nanyan saw that a male classmate with a familiar face but whose specific name he could not remember was already sitting in his exam seat, stuffing a pen into his schoolbag.

Looking around, she realized that Lin Nanyan had disappeared again at some point and must have gone to the teacher's office.

Seeing her classmates finishing their packing one by one, she slowly moved to the back and searched for her own belongings among a pile of messy, complicated and colorful things.

I took out a book and opened the first page, and the three words "Yang Tianhua" came to me in a ferocious voice.

Let it go, this is not it.

Pick up another one, Li Xirui, no, next one.

After flipping through four or five books, none of them were the correct one. Jiang Qing squatted down and patiently moved from left to right, flipping through each book one by one.

"You grow mushrooms?"

A crisp voice came from the side, and Jiang Qing turned around.

Song Shuang squatted beside her, his head full of questions.

After she set up her desk, she was about to say something to Jiang Qing, but suddenly she realized there was no one behind her. She looked closer and saw Jiang Qing was still dawdling at the back of the classroom, growing mushrooms.

He put down his schoolbag, ran to Huang Gu Ben Gu and squatted down. Jiang Qing's yellow T-shirt was really eye-catching. At first glance, it was the entire focus without a trace of blur.

No wonder the teacher was able to catch her distraction accurately today. Who could be so blind as to ignore this?

Jiang Jiang is really too stupid, no wonder it takes him so long to find a book.

She sighed and stopped what she was doing. As expected, she couldn't do it without me.

Song Shuang ran to the back to help search, and recognized Jiang Qing's book after just a few glances.

"Here, it's yours." She took it out and handed it to Jiang Qing.

At this time, Jiang Qing was three people's width away from her things. She looked at the distance between them, quickly took the notebook, and gave Song Shuang a bright smile to hide her guilty conscience.

"Shuang, your eyesight is amazing! I've been looking for it for ages but haven't found it. I'm so dizzy after a day of exams that my eyes hurt."

After all, she couldn't just say that she was not smart and could always look for things in completely different directions, one in the east and the other in the west.

The brain is a good thing, but unfortunately, it ran away from home temporarily today.

Song Shuang responded positively: "Me too. Every time I take an exam, my hands, eyes, and stomach hurt."

She moved the stack of books she found in front of her and said, "Tell me, if I don't do well on the test this time, how about I tell my brother that I ate something wrong and got diarrhea?"

Before Jiang Qing could reply, she shook her head and said, "Forget it. If I really said that, I would be in big trouble."

As she spoke, she glanced at the person in front of her with an envious expression: "I wish your parents were my parents, gentle and easy to talk to. I wouldn't be afraid of any test results."

Jiang Qing: You are stabbing my heart, do you know that?

"It's not impossible. As long as you come to my house, you can draw an experience card at any time."

She picked up her things and followed behind Song Shuang, watching him put all his things on a table near the window at the back of the classroom. Looking forward, she saw Song Shuang's schoolbag for the exam on the table in the front row.

She remembered that she sat behind Song Shuang for a period of time in high school, but she didn't expect it to be this time.

Song Shuang happily responded, "You're right. I understand the principle that things smell better from a distance than up close. I'll just draw one whenever I want. Isn't this dual SIM dual standby? I can use whichever one I want."

Dual SIM dual standby? How can you talk about your parents like that? It's obvious you've never been beaten.

Jiang Qing followed Song Shuang's footsteps and quickly moved all the things back into the table pocket.

My deskmate Lin Nanyan hasn't come back yet.

She threw her schoolbag on the table and gave up thinking.

Thinking about this matter was too tiring and not suitable for her brain that had just been strained.

Song Shuang, who was sitting in front, was about to run towards freedom. She turned around to say goodbye to Jiang Qing, but saw the listless Jiang Qing at a glance. She grabbed the exhausted Jiang Qing like a tiger catching a rabbit.

"Jiang Jiang, what's wrong with you today? I've never seen you like this during normal exams?" she asked in confusion.

Jiang Qing didn't even look up. "I'm just tired of taking exams. I've already been expelled from the scientific community as a biology major."

"Hahaha, if you put it that way, then I've been expelled from human civilization." Song Shuang neatly packed his schoolbag, stuffing all his stationery, textbooks, and snacks into it. "From now on, alien civilization has a bright new star that is about to rise."

She pointed at herself and said, "That's me, the great god of imagination - Shuangshuangzi."

Jiang Qing: "...God of Imagination, your brother is still waiting for you at home. If you don't come home, you will really have to say goodbye to the earth."

When Song Shuang heard this, he immediately quickened his pace: "I'm leaving first. Today's exam is really too brain-intensive. I have to go home and catch up. Bye."

Jiang Qing sat on a chair, listening to the noise in the classroom slowly die down. As people came and went, she was the only one left.

Outside the window, the sun was setting, and the sky was covered with a fiery red color, which enveloped the teaching building opposite.

"Leave."

Lin Nanyan knocked on the table with his hand to draw Jiang Qing's attention back.

The two people walked home step by step in the shadow of the setting sun. Under the sunset glow, their shadows were stretched out long.

Lin Nanyan turned his head and looked at Jiang Qing's cheeks, which had become furry under the sunlight.

"You seem a little different today." He became especially quiet.

"Yeah?"

Jiang Qing didn't look up, looking at the canvas shoes on her feet. These shoes must be newly bought, clean, and even the uppers exude a brand new smell.

"There's just something I can't figure out. Some inexplicable accidents happened to me." She raised her head and looked at Lin Nanyan's fair face. "Do you think the established destiny line can be changed?"

If my future self traveled through time and space to the present, would that future self still be me? Where would the present self go?

If time is a one-way line, and unknown factors cause one line to split, resulting in another possibility, then how can I, standing at this moment in time, not get lost in the vortex of time and space?

To put it bluntly, Jiang Qing realized that she might not be able to go back after traveling through time and space, but she was very confused.

She neither felt that her life was unfortunate nor that there was anything she had to accomplish. She was just an ordinary person among the vast majority of people. She didn't know what the meaning of starting over was, nor did she know whether making changes on this timeline would affect others.

If time is a one-way line and the future is uncertain, she can move forward without fear because she only needs to be responsible for herself.

But now that the timelines overlap, she knows the future and may have the power to change it. This power is fascinating and dangerous. A butterfly flapping its wings in North America can cause a hurricane, let alone a living person?

She was afraid of all the changes that would come from changing her behavior.

Just like taking the college entrance exam, if she studies hard on this timeline and gets admitted to a better university, then she has changed the fate of the candidate whose place she has squeezed out.

Her fate is intertwined with the people around her, and one move can affect the whole body. She is panicked and cannot afford the consequences of changing the fate of others.

Trapped in the spider web of time and space, Jiang Qing felt timid. The overlapping roads under her feet made her not know where to start.

She looked up at Lin Nanyan and asked him for help again after many years.

Will he bring her answers?

As had happened countless times before.
