Suddenly, footsteps were heard in the quiet library, the broken door was pushed open, and a man walked out.
"There's no one in the library. Do all the kids behind the door hate reading?"
Carrying two backpacks, Chen Ge stood in the corridor outside the library. The encounter in the library that he expected did not happen. There was no one here, and it was impossible to get any information.
"Where did they all hide?"
Chen Ge walked forward aimlessly along the corridor.
The blood-red campus behind the door seemed to be a completely closed building, isolated from the outside world. All the windows were sealed with wooden boards. Chen Ge walked a long way but couldn't find the way to the outside world.
"Hey! Which class are you from?" A somewhat stern voice sounded behind Chen Ge. He turned his head and found that a door he had just passed by was opened, and a short and fat middle-aged man was standing at the door.
"Not in red..." Chen Ge glanced at the doorplate of the man's room, which read "Academic Affairs Office".
"It's class time now, don't hang around in the corridor." The short and fat man saw that Chen Ge didn't take him seriously at all, and his face immediately turned stern: "Which class are you in? Let me see your student ID."
"Student ID?" Chen Ge put his hand into his pocket, but his eyes were fixed on the short and fat man in front of him, with a dangerous light hidden in the depths of his eyes.
The moment he saw the short and fat man, Chen Ge used his Yin pupil to look at him. He didn't know the identity of the short and fat man, he only knew that he was not the man in red.
"A freshman?" The short and fat man took the student ID and looked at it for a while, then his tone became more severe: "You started skipping classes right after you entered school. Children like you need strict discipline!"
He walked out of the Academic Affairs Office and reached out to grab Chen Ge's arm.
"What do you want to do?" Chen Ge dodged subconsciously. This was the world behind the door, and he would never allow anyone to get close to him casually.
"I'll take you back to class and warn the teacher who let you run around during class!" The short and fat man was a little angry. He widened his eyes, as if if Chen Ge didn't do as he said, something more serious would happen.
"Okay, I'll go back to the class with you." Chen Ge still remembered the task that Chang Gu assigned to him, and took this opportunity to look for those students.
After he finished speaking, he stopped, as if waiting for the short and fat teacher to lead the way.
Seeing his perfunctory attitude, the short and fat man's already sparse hair stood up in anger.
"It's getting more and more outrageous." The short and fat man stuffed the student ID into Chen Ge's hand and led Chen Ge through the corridor.
This school was much bigger than Chen Ge had imagined. They walked a long way, went down one floor, and finally stopped next to a classroom.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The short and fat man knocked on the door, and a moment later a tall and thin man came out: "Director Lei? What can I do for you?"
"Didn't you notice that there's one student missing from your class?" The short and fat man grabbed Chen Ge's arm. "He's from your class. Keep a close eye on him! If I find him running around during class again, you and him should be prepared to be punished! He's getting more and more outrageous..."
The short and fat man left Chen Ge at the door of the classroom. He seemed to have other things to do and left angrily.
"Director Lei?" The tall and thin teacher looked confused. He pushed his black-framed glasses and looked Chen Ge up and down through the thick lenses: "Are you a freshman?"
"Director Lei brought me here. This is my student ID." Chen Ge pointed at the short and fat man who was walking away. His expression, coupled with the tone of his voice, would give people the illusion that he and Director Lei knew each other.
"Oh, come in first. There happen to be a few empty seats in my class." The tall and thin teacher nodded and was about to take Chen Ge in, but suddenly stopped and said: "I don't like children who are too noisy. You should try your best to get along well with everyone and integrate into our big family as soon as possible."
"OK."
"One more thing, my last name is Liu, you can call me Teacher Liu."
Pushing open the classroom door, Teacher Liu took Chen Ge to the podium.
The class is very quiet and the learning atmosphere is very good, but there are not many people who are actually learning.
Seeing someone coming in, many students looked up at the podium.
"Excuse me for taking a minute. We have a new student in our class. Please let him introduce himself." Teacher Liu motioned Chen Ge to come over.
Walking up to the podium, Chen Ge looked down at the students in the class. On the surface, there was nothing wrong with this class, but he knew very well that the only beauty in the world behind the door had been stolen by the painter. At this moment, all that remained in this blood-red world were various negative emotions suppressed in the heart.
"My name is Chen Ge."
After a very brief and unique self-introduction, Chen Ge walked down the stage carrying his big bag.
"Would you like to say a few more words?" Teacher Liu coughed dryly and said, "Your seat is in the third row from the bottom of the classroom. The seats in our class are arranged according to grades. After the midterm exam, if you do well, I will change your seat."
Teacher Liu's words seemed to have other hidden meanings. Chen Ge actually didn't think there was anything wrong with sitting at the back of the classroom. When he was in college, he sat in the last row of the classroom every day.
Carrying his backpack, Chen Ge walked to the back of the classroom. Students on both sides looked at him.
Many eyes fell on him, some were gloating, some were malicious, and some were already numb.
Walking to the end of the classroom, Chen Ge stopped next to his seat.
The classmate sitting behind him lifted his dirty shoes onto his chair, and as his body swayed, his chair made a creaking sound and seemed about to fall apart.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do that. I didn't expect there would be a new student in our class." The boy in the back seat slowly took back his shoes, leaving two black and red shoe prints on Chen Ge's chair.
"Okay, everyone, take your seats and let's continue the class." Teacher Liu's thick glasses seemed to block his vision, and he seemed not to see what was happening in the back of the classroom: "Chen Ge, don't stand there, sit down in your seat."
"Okay." Chen Ge's expression remained unchanged. He took out a clean piece of paper from Lin Sisi's backpack and placed it on the table. Just when everyone thought that he was going to swallow his anger and wipe off the shoe prints on the chair, he grabbed the back of the chair with both hands, lifted the chair, turned around and swung it at the boy in the back row!
“Bang!”
The worn-out chair broke apart when it hit the boy's head. The class fell into complete silence and even Teacher Liu was stunned with fear.
"Sorry, I didn't mean it." Picking up the clean white paper on the table, Chen Ge wiped the blood off his hands and put the boy's chair in the back row on his own seat.
"You, you, you come out here!" Teacher Liu's hands were shaking, and it was unclear whether he was angry or scared.
"Okay." Chen Ge pressed the switch of the repeater, put Lin Sisi's backpack on the desk, and scanned the entire class again.
