"The power is out?" "Does anyone know what the situation is?" "Great, we don't have to go to class!"

The students were immersed in rare happiness and everyone was very happy.

Only some people thought of something more.

"Did you understand what that guy was talking about?"

"What 'Dark Knight'? I'm not sure about that, but I think it's a prank, right?"

"I don't know, but this is definitely not a power outage. How can a power outage cause all the light to disappear completely..."

"Does anyone bring a cell phone? It's too dark in here!!"

"This is a classroom. Aren't you afraid that you'll be caught by the teacher the next second if you take out your phone?"

Surrounded by the noisy sounds of classmates talking in groups of three or four, Li Jingwen couldn't help but frown.

Something is wrong. Something is very wrong now.

She recalled the content of the previous broadcast: "That person said that it will get dark next, and then the 'Dark Knight' will appear..."

If there was a light on, would the 'Dark Knight' notice it and attack that guy?

No, that guy isn't necessarily right.

Maybe it's just a special weather change, such as a total solar eclipse...

Li Jingwen thought so, but her body stood up subconsciously and moved slowly behind the wall at an angle that no one else could see.

For some reason, she really didn't want to get together with these guys.

They wouldn't have paid any attention to me in the first place, and they probably wouldn't even know about it until I was gone.

Although the content of the broadcast may be false, who knows? If it is true, then staying in a crowded place is likely to turn out badly.

Li Jingwen thought so in her heart.

Of course, all of the above can actually be classified as "excuses".

After all, it was because of her wish.

I want to believe that this unconventional thing is real, I want to take the opportunity to leave this place and discover more new things, I want to escape from this boring and painful life...

These are all part of the aspiration.

Out of the restlessness and fantasy typical of young people, Li Jingwen left the classroom and walked slowly in the dark corridor.

The school has become really dark now, and this kind of "darkness" is different from ordinary night walking. If walking at night, you can barely see things in the distance, but now walking in the school corridor, Li Jingwen feels that she can't even see one meter away.

Obviously, this is not normal.

With this thought in mind, Li Jingwen felt her adrenaline secretion gradually increasing.

She even thought she could hear the powerful beating of her heart, and the blood flowing in her veins seeped out of the capillaries, making her face look a little red.

She was more excited than ever before, and in this dark and noisy environment, Li Jingwen felt "happy" for the first time.

“Those guys must have understood that this was abnormal,” Li Jingwen thought silently as she looked at the other classes in the corridor, “but they stayed where they were in the end out of fear or to follow the crowd.”

But I took this step.

Even if this step may bring destruction and death to oneself, at least, one has truly walked out of that dark and lightless life and into this darkness filled with illusions!

Mustering up her courage, Li Jingwen walked along the wall, bypassed the classes on this floor, and went all the way down.

According to my thoughts, I seem to be heading to the stairwell next. If it is so dark, I probably need to pay attention to my steps to avoid missing a step.

With this thought in mind, Li Jingwen walked down from the fifth floor to the first floor.

There were not many people in the stairwell, and it seemed that most of the students were still in the classroom, so Li Jingwen reached the lobby without any obstruction.

At the corner of the first floor, Li Jingwen was about to go around it, but the next second, she suddenly felt as if she had bumped into something.

Did you bump into someone?! Li Jingwen took a step back immediately, and at the same time, her voice was so stammering that it seemed to be uttered bit by bit from her throat: "I'm... I'm sorry..."

The person she hit seemed to wave his hand: "Ah, it's okay, it doesn't hurt much."

Listening to the voice, Li Jingwen felt it sounded familiar.

She thought about it in her mind and suddenly remembered where she had heard this voice before: "You were... in the radio station before..."

If Li Jingwen remembered correctly, the voice coming from the radio station before dark was similar to the voice of the person in front of her! Hearing this, the person opposite was stunned for about a second: "You heard it so quickly?"

Hearing this, Li Jingwen really wanted to say that she had had good hearing since she was a child, but because the guy in front of her was a stranger, she ended up saying nothing and just kept her head down.

The person whose identity was revealed smiled easily: "Yes, I am the one who reminded you at the radio station before."

As he spoke, the man stretched out his hand towards Li Jingwen: "My name is Xu Le, what's yours?"

For some reason, Li Jingwen seemed to see a faint trace of pale mark on the other person's outstretched wrist.

For some reason, this doesn't look quite like human skin.

Looking at this man, Li Jingwen hesitated for a long time, and finally whispered: "My name is... Li, Li Jingwen."

"Oh, Mr. Li," the man who didn't get to shake hands didn't feel awkward at all, "Why are you outside the classroom instead of staying inside?"

This question made Li Jingwen fall silent again.

After a few seconds, she organized her words: "Because, because I am a little scared, afraid that what you said is true, so... it will be dangerous to stay in the classroom like this..."

It shouldn't matter if this kind of thing is said, right?

Can't trust anyone, Li Jingwen thought to herself, if something really goes wrong, just run away.

Anyway, it’s so dark, it’s probably going to be hard for that guy to catch up.

While saying this, Li Jingwen secretly looked at the man in front of her.

Bai Ling just listened silently, showing no impatience at all.

"I see," the man said with a serious expression, "You are very smart."

clever?

Own?

Li Jingwen looked at Bai Ling in confusion.

This was the first time she heard someone use such an adjective to refer to her.

The man patted Li Jingwen on the shoulder and said in a serious tone: "The 'Night Knight' can follow the sound. If people gather together, it is indeed easy to be discovered."

As he spoke, the man glanced at Li Jingwen and said, "Be careful next time, try to avoid the crowd, find some quiet places, don't run around, and the problem will be solved soon."

After saying this, he withdrew his hand and walked away from Li Jingwen.

Li Jingwen was slightly stunned.

After a long while, her chest suddenly palpitated.

Driven by her fantasy dreams over the years, her voice was not as awkward as before for the first time: "Um... what are you going to do next?"

The man who heard this turned his head to look at her, then chuckled.

"I'm going to deal with the 'Dark Knight'," he said calmly, looking out into the night, "because this is the responsibility of the 'Daylight Knight'."
