52 Taboo 13 || Found You
Yan Shuang listened to the red-haired man outside the window snort coldly and said nothing.
Then he turned and left, and soon the sound of someone coming down the stairs was heard.
Yan Shuang cursed inwardly. Curiosity had indeed killed the cat. His legs and feet began to tingle from crouching, and he began to tremble uncontrollably. Even at night, the June weather was still swelteringly hot. With the windows closed, his clothes on his back, soaked with sweat, clung to his skin, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Zhang Bin didn't move. The files scattered on the floor in the room gave off an old, damp smell. Just when Yan Shuang was considering whether to get up and take a look outside, the sound of slow footsteps came from the stairwell again.
"Teacher Zhang?"
It was Jingning. Yan Shuang exhaled the breath that was stuck in her throat and her heart settled back into her stomach.
Zhang Bin didn't expect someone else to come up at this moment. He was stunned for a moment, and his tone didn't change at all, "What's the matter?"
"I just transferred here and have been taking exams. I haven't had a good look around the school yet." Jing Ning's tone was like chatting with a friend.
"It's good to have time to relax, but don't fall behind in your studies," Zhang Bin said responsibly as a teacher.
Jing Ning immediately changed to a well-behaved and obedient attitude, "Thank you Teacher Zhang for your concern, I will work hard."
Zhang Bin nodded in satisfaction and walked towards his office. When he was almost at the door, he reminded her, "Don't play too long. Go back to the dormitory and rest early."
"good."
With that attitude and tone, even the best actor would have to stand aside.
Until Zhang Bin closed the office door, Jing Ning leaned against the wall, knocked on the window, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "How long do you plan to stay in there?"
Yan Shuang heard his unhappy tone and was about to get up when he felt a tingling sensation in his feet, almost making him cry out.
Jing Ning waited outside for a long time without any movement, and asked in a slightly softer tone, "What's wrong?"
"My feet are numb." Yan Shuang gritted her teeth, supporting herself against the wall with her palms. "Wait for me to recover."
Jing Ning opened the window, grabbed the window sill with his slender fingers, and a part of his forearm was exposed from his sleeve. The muscle lines on his arm were clear and smooth. With a little effort, he lifted his body and easily entered the house.
"You've made it." He saw Yan Shuang's expression and laughed in anger. He snorted coldly, his face darkening, "If I hadn't come, would you have stayed here overnight?"
Yan Shuang knew she was in the wrong and said, "You will come." After saying that, she observed Jing Ning's expression.
Jing Ning ignored him and reached out to carefully brush off the dust on his clothes. Just as Yan Shuang was about to speak, Jing Ning put his finger to his mouth, signaling him to be quiet, and then pointed to the office next door.
Yan Shuang immediately shut up, and the noise from next door had disappeared without a trace.
After a while, the sound of shoes rubbing against each other and the creaking of a chair due to gravity finally came from next door.
"Can we go?" Jing Ning asked.
Yan Shuang nodded.
Jing Ning immediately climbed out of the window first. Although Yan Shuang's legs were no longer numb, he still had no strength. It took him a lot of effort to climb onto the windowsill. Just as he was thinking about how to get down without making any noise.
Jing Ning opened his hands below and motioned him to jump down.
Yan Shuang took a look and jumped down without hesitation. Jing Ning happened to hold him firmly and then carried Yan Shuang on his shoulders.
"Hey, put me down. I can walk by myself."
Jing Ning turned a deaf ear and carried him downstairs.
Time waits for no one, and the sky gradually darkens.
The two of them didn't even have time to eat dinner. After returning from the laboratory building, they went straight to the dormitory.
"You two are finally back." Ye Jing'an was almost dying of anxiety in the dormitory. If Lin Haichen hadn't stopped him and vowed that Jing Ning would bring people back, he would have run to the laboratory building to look for them long ago.
Jing Ning put Yan Shuang down only now. If he didn't, he would have vomited.
The two sat side by side on the bed. Yan Shuang felt dizzy and dazed for a while before she said, "It's okay, it's okay."
On the contrary, Jing Ning, who was working hard, didn't even breathe heavily except for a little sweat on his forehead.
"There's only one set of passwords left." Lin Haichen said, seeing that the two had almost rested, "But we have to get through tonight."
Only Hongmao knows the remaining set of codes. If Hongmao dies tonight, everything will have to start over again. This is why Yan Shuang must follow him, but she didn't expect Zhang Bin to come so quickly.
As soon as Hongmao came back, he lay on the bed as if nothing had happened, and he didn't worry at all whether Yan Shuang, who was trapped in the archives room, could come out.
"Aren't you going to tell us the password?" Lin Haichen asked.
Red Hair pretended not to hear, lying on his side with his face to the wall. After a while he said, "Will I live if I tell you?"
Lin Hai was silent.
"See? I'll die whether I tell or not, so why should I tell you?" He sat up and faced the people in the room. "If I'm in danger with this code, you'll come to save me. If I don't have it, will you just stand by and watch?"
"You're overthinking it. The password is indeed part of the reason I saved you," Yan Shuang said. "But that's only a small part and doesn't count. The main reason is that you're a living person. No matter who dies in front of me, I can't just stand by and watch. Sorry, I can't do that."
Hongmao didn't expect Yan Shuang to answer him like this. He looked into his eyes for a long time, then turned around and continued to sleep.
Lin Haichen returned to the dormitory next door. The room fell into silence and only the breathing of a few people could be heard.
Yan Shuang was a little tired. He lay flat on his back, staring at the upper bunk of Jing Ning's bed, and soon fell sleepy.
Just when he was half asleep and half awake, he was awakened by other sounds.
The friction sound of slippers walking could be heard faintly in the corridor, getting closer and closer to him, but the friction sound suddenly stopped and there was no movement outside the house.
Yan Shuang initially thought she was dreaming and wanted to turn over and continue sleeping.
Just one meter away from Yan Shuang, he suddenly saw a girl standing there. She was wearing a white dress and her long hair covered most of her face.
Yan Shuang didn't dare to move, half closing her eyes and pretending to be asleep. The temperature in the room suddenly dropped, making people feel cold all over.
The girl stood there motionless, as if searching for her target.
After a while, in the moonlight, he saw the girl start to move. The slippers on her feet made the same friction sound as before, rustling, and the thing walked towards Yan Shuang, getting closer and closer to him.
Yan Shuang finally couldn't help but open his eyes, holding his breath and looking at the person standing in front of his bed.
The girl in the white skirt had blood all over her face and bruises all over her body. She noticed Yan Shuang was looking at her, but she smiled at Yan Shuang.
Then she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out. It just opened and closed like that. Yan Shuang then realized that she had no tongue. Her tongue had been pulled out, and her mouth was a bloody mess. Blood kept flowing out as she moved, dyeing the originally snow-white dress red.
Yan Shuang felt cold all over and didn't know what to do. He wanted to make some noise to wake up the people sleeping in the room, but he had no chance. The girl just stared at him.
