Looking at Li Jingwen beside him, the man, or Bai Ling, was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Actually, you don't have to follow."

Li Jingwen, who was following him, shook her head and said silently: "I'm sorry..."

She didn't know what to say in response and could only keep apologizing.

The man in front of her named Xu Le was obviously unusual. Whether it was his previous speech at the radio station or his intention to take the initiative to deal with the "Dark Knight", every point made Li Jingwen very curious.

If the current situation is something like a "reality show", then Li Jingwen doesn't mind being on TV. She doesn't care about her image, and if possible, she even wants to use this to change her life.

But if this is true, then Li Jingwen is also very eager to step into this magnificent and fantastic darkness before her.

This desire even overwhelmed her vigilance towards Bering, so much so that she followed Bering, a stranger she met for the first time.

Faced with Li Jingwen's insistence, Bai Ling immediately expressed his objection: "No!"

Bai Ling's expression gradually became serious. "I have to tell you first, the Dark Knight is a 'dangerous' alien species. If something goes wrong, even I may not be able to keep you safe."

"So in summary, I absolutely cannot take you with me. Please seek shelter now."

Listening to Bai Ling's words, Li Jingwen stammered, "But I..."

"No means no!" Bai Ling said firmly, "We in 'Daylight' cannot yet ..."

However, before he finished speaking, he glanced at his phone and his expression suddenly changed a little: "Wait, Prophet?!"

The next second, Bai Ling glanced at his phone nervously.

He seemed to be reading some news.

Time passed slowly, and although Li Jingwen wanted to say something, she looked at Bai Ling's serious face and ended up saying nothing.

The two of them just remained silent.

After a long while, Bai Ling finally sighed: "Really... What on earth is the prophet thinking..."

Touching the back of his head, Bai Ling looked at Li Jingwen again: "Forget it, follow me."

"Although I don't know the reason, since it is the prophet's wish, it means that you have the key factor that can affect this operation," Bailing said, "Even if I don't care, I have to take you with me because of the prophet's instructions."

"If you are ready, then come along, I will take you to find the Dark Knight!"

After saying this, Bai Ling walked straight forward.

Listening to Bai Ling's words, Li Jingwen hesitated for a while.

The change in Bai Ling's attitude made her feel a little uneasy.

Judging from Bai Ling's attitude, those so-called alien monsters seemed to be very dangerous and ordinary people could not deal with them at all. That was why Bai Ling asked Li Jingwen to leave directly instead of taking her with him.

But for some reason, after looking at his phone, Bai Ling quickly changed his mind.

Is it because... what does "prophet" mean in his words just now? Someone who can be called "prophet"...

After a moment's silence, her eyes fell on Bai Ling's back. After a few seconds, Li Jingwen gritted her teeth and quickly followed.

The corridor was dark, and next to it were the classes of the students. At this moment, some people came out of the classroom, and Li Jingwen had to be very alert to prevent herself from bumping into those guys.

Some people's eyes could not adapt to the darkness well, and they walked carefully, holding on to the wall, shouting as they walked, as if they were very unfamiliar with the current situation.

How stupid it was, making such a loud noise. If the Dark Knight was really around, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.

Li Jingwen thought so in her heart.

Unconsciously, she had partially accepted the "setting" spoken by Bering and felt that the Dark Knight was a real thing.

Bai Ling knew very well that if he wanted to strengthen that feeling right now, he needed deeper and more information exchange.

But he was very patient and just walked in front, with cautious steps and solemn attitude, as if there really was a "Dark Knight" in front of him.

Soon, he heard Li Jingwen behind him whisper, "Excuse me..."

"Mr. Xu Le..." Li Jingwen said in a thin voice, "What are the 'alien' and 'dangerous' levels you mentioned before?"

It turned out to be just as I thought.

After hearing Li Jingwen's question, Bai Ling's mouth curled up slightly.

As he walked around a corridor, he whispered, "The alien species is... it's hard to explain clearly. Anyway, you just need to know that the alien species is a monster. It is the product of distorted thinking, inspiration, consciousness and information."

"Perhaps there are aliens that are kind to humans, but they are rare," he said casually, thinking of the Weaver. "If ordinary people see aliens, they should run away immediately without hesitation. This way they have a chance of survival."

This is the truth.

The diary once recorded many "rules" for hunting alien organizations. These "rules" were different, but there was only one rule that all organizations needed to remember.

That is, if ordinary people see an alien, they should never think about dealing with it, they should just run away as soon as possible.

According to the future, most ordinary people cannot fight against monsters. Even "hunters" who specialize in hunting aliens may be killed by "dangerous" or even "ordinary" aliens if they are not careful. So for the sake of life, running is really a skill worth practicing.

While thinking this, Bai Ling glanced at Li Jingwen beside him.

As he expected, although he had warned her thoroughly enough, Li Jingwen's face still showed a hint of thoughtfulness.

"Sure enough, his personality is just like what is described in the diary. He likes unusual things," Bai Ling leaned against the wall, thinking, "If this is true, then perhaps the next action is meaningful..."

Thinking of this, the two of them walked upstairs.

At this moment, many teachers had already walked into their respective classes in the dark, so the noise in each class gradually subsided. Although the class had not yet started, order had gradually been restored, and there were basically no students wandering around except for Bai Ling and the other person.

Following Bai Ling and listening to the teacher calling the roll in each class, Li Jingwen suddenly felt a little scared.

The courage and pride that had risen up before gradually faded away with the mechanical roll call, just like the bare beach after the tide receded. No matter how high the building is, it will be collapsed in an instant by the waves of reality.

"How about...let's go back?"

Li Jingwen thought so in her heart.

Perhaps the only consolation right now is the power outage.

For some reason, the entire teaching building was immersed in darkness at this moment, without even a single light. Only the teacher took out his cell phone to shine a flashlight, and there was no other light at all.

In such a dark environment, even if the teacher wanted to establish order, there would always be omissions when calling the roll. This is why Li Jingwen has not been discovered and still insists on following Bai Ling.

But this persistence probably won't last too long.

If there is no big enough explosion point, then as time goes by, the courage supporting Li Jingwen's heart will eventually be worn away. Soon, she will return to reality from the darkness.

Fortunately, Bering had already prepared the next "script" in advance.

At this moment they have arrived at the fifth floor, which is Li Jingwen's class.

As she got closer to the classroom, the uneasiness on Li Jingwen's face became more and more obvious.

When approaching her class, Bai Ling could clearly hear the voice of her head teacher: "Liu Zhihui, got it, next one, Li Jingwen."

No one responded.

The teacher frowned and repeated, "Li Jingwen, are you there?"

A student who was usually quite lively whispered something sarcastic, and then all the students in the class couldn't help laughing out loud, and the whole classroom was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

The teacher didn't laugh, but said impatiently: "Li Jingwen! Where is she?"

As the teacher's voice of calling the roll sounded as if urging her to die, Li Jingwen, who was standing next to Bai Ling, lowered her head and her body began to tremble slightly.

At this moment, she must be very conflicted. Should she continue to follow this strange guy, Bai Ling, with all her enthusiasm, or should she face the reality and put on shackles again?

This kind of confusion is very normal. After all, up to now, apart from darkness, there is no conclusive evidence of the existence of the so-called "fantasy world".

However, this is only temporary.

Bai Ling thought so and suddenly stopped.

And what a coincidence, the place where they stopped was right next to the back door of Li Jingwen's classroom.
