It is difficult to determine the exact time when this classroom was built, but Lu Pingsha dares to conclude that the entire building is an antique.
There were peeling wall paint, faded blackboards, desks with many scars carved on them, and even the ground beneath one's feet was not paved with wooden boards, but rather a cement floor that would stir up dust with a stomp of one's foot.
He didn't listen to the teacher's lecture at the podium. His mind was completely focused on observing the entire classroom.
There is a door at the front and back of the classroom, and the glass windows can be opened, but they are now tightly closed. This is the sixth floor, which means that even if the glass windows are open, it would be difficult to escape from here.
The more the heat on his back rose, the more Lu Pingsha sweated. It was not only because of the temperature, but also because of the game between life and death.
Obviously, at the speed at which the fire spread, this classroom would be engulfed in flames before the afternoon get out of class was over. But now that Yu Qirong was not here, it seemed that no one could communicate with the teacher.
Xu Yanan kept coughing because the smoke was too choking.
But except for Liang Xue, the students around Xu Yanan seemed not to see it, and they seemed not to feel that the temperature in the classroom was rising rapidly.
"Teacher!" Lu Pingsha raised his hand and held his stomach tightly when the teacher looked at him. "I need to go to the toilet. My stomach hurts so much."
"You again." The teacher stared at Lu Pingsha with a strange smile. He obviously remembered that this student also tried to skip class with this excuse in the morning.
Due to the heat and the threat to his life, Lu Pingsha's face turned abnormally red, and the dense beads of sweat on his forehead added some truth to his reason for asking for leave.
Beads of sweat slid down Lu Pingsha's forehead, finally gathered at his chin, and slowly fell downwards.
He was looking at the teacher.
"Go ahead." said the teacher.
Lu Pingsha seemed to be pardoned. He held his stomach and moved step by step to the back door. When he opened the door, the thick smoke outside rushed into his eyes, forcing him to close his eyes tightly.
After closing the door, he forced his eyes open and opened the window. He took a breath of fresh air from the window, then turned and walked towards the stairs.
He had to find Yu Qirong before the flames completely engulfed the classroom.
Originally, Xu Yanan chose the seat at the back in order to be away from the classmates in front of him, but now he regretted it very much.
The empty classroom that caught fire was behind the classroom where they had classes, so when the fire spread, the back rows of the classroom were burned first, not to mention the increasingly strong smell of smoke.
She had heard that most people who died in fires were choked to death, and now she suspected that she might have died in this way.
Bai Shi used his points to exchange for a bottle of water and clean cloth, and made a simple wet towel to cover their mouths and noses. He signaled to the two people, and Liang Xue and Xu Yanan did the same, temporarily freeing themselves from the possibility of suffocation.
Lu Pingsha has already gone to find Yu Qirong, and they can’t just sit here and wait to die.
The teacher's lecture at the podium came to an end. His broken leg left only a piece of his trouser leg floating empty, and his worried eyes kept falling on the empty seat in front of him.
"Teacher, I may know where classmate Yu went." Liang Xue saw the teacher's concern for Yu Qirong, hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and took the initiative to report: "I saw him in the canteen just now, and then I didn't see him after I came out. He...he couldn't be missing, right? Do you want us to go look for him together?"
Liang Xue bit her lower lip, expecting the teacher to say words of agreement, so that they would still have a chance to save themselves before the fire came.
"Then..."
The teacher hesitated for a moment, and continued in Liang Xue's hopeful eyes: "It is still more important to attend class. Student Yu should be fine at school."
Liang Xue withdrew her gaze in disappointment, and covered her mouth and nose tightly with a wet cloth, trying to survive longer in the thick smoke.
Although covering your mouth and nose with a wet cloth can temporarily relieve the feeling of being choked by smoke, the smell of smoke can still seep through, and if you cover your mouth too tightly, you will feel suffocated.
Liang Xue looked at the podium in a daze. Her brain seemed like a mass of paste and it was difficult for her to think calmly. Her ears seemed to be covered by a layer of fog and she could not hear anything.
I could only vaguely hear that the teacher was probably talking about classical Chinese from high school Chinese, probably something about marriage or something like that.
My vision became increasingly blurry, and the burning sensation on my back became more and more intense. At this point, even if I wanted to run, my legs felt weak and I couldn't move.
Liang Xue seemed to have entered a strange state. She could not hear any sound from outside and everything in front of her was pitch black.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she smelled a familiar fragrance. She struggled to open her eyes, and when she tilted her head back, she saw a few strands of white hair hanging down, and her snow-white eyelashes drooping, covering half of her wine-red pupils.
"Are you awake?" Yu Qirong saw Liang Xue woke up, and two shallow dimples appeared on her snow-white face.
Before Liang Xue could say anything, a bottle of medicine was thrown into her arms. She moved her hands and took a look. It was burn medicine that could be purchased at the points store.
"I never owe anyone anything." The white-haired beauty tilted her head, a bit of pride on her delicate face, "I got the medicine from Lu Pingsha. Even though it can be considered as borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, it is still an offering."
Liang Xue wanted to say something, but suddenly she remembered the situation before she fell into a coma, so she sat up and looked around. She found herself in the dormitory where she had stayed before, and the other three were there.
Yu Qirong clapped his hands, and when he saw that the four people were safe, he lay back on his bed, "You guys stay here first, I'll sleep for a while."
After saying that, not long after, his breathing gradually stabilized and he quickly fell asleep.
Liang Xue then realized that his pale skin was almost transparent, revealing an indescribable sense of weakness, like a dying patient. His exhausted vitality made his lips look a sickly red, like rose petals that had bloomed to the extreme and were about to wither in the next second.
Liang Xue looked at Lu Pingsha with an inquiring look. Lu Pingsha waved his hand and gathered everyone in a place farthest from Yu Qirong. He explained in a low voice: "I wanted to go to the store to find him, but I didn't expect to see Yu Qirong when I passed by the empty classroom. He closed the door."
Liang Xue frowned. They were all watching when Yu Qirong opened the door. Apparently, just touching the door handle was enough to burn Yu Qirong. Now that the fire was so big, it was obviously not an easy task to close the door.
"Perhaps his recovery was not due to our medicine." Lu Pingsha frowned, as if he was recalling something, and finally made an uncertain conclusion: "Perhaps his method of healing is sleep."
Liang Xue: "Where are the other students in the classroom?"
Lu Pingsha: "After Yu Qirong closed the door of the empty classroom, the temperature in the corridor instantly returned to normal and the smoke disappeared. After I made sure that your lives were not in danger, I brought you back after class."
Things seemed to have come to a standstill again. After actually feeling the smoke and flames, their mission progress was stuck at 85%.
It was obvious that the fire was related to their mission, but they had no clue.
Without the disturbance of the ringing bell in the middle of the night, Yu Qirong slept particularly soundly that night. The only flaw was that she saw Tang Xingfei again in her dream.
After receiving his love letter, this cold-faced and cold-hearted man left without saying a word in reply, which made Yu Qirong feel very uncomfortable.
In this school, there has never been anyone so ungrateful as to reject his courtship.
It would be fine if this was just a failed courtship experience, but you have to replay it countless times in your dreams, reminding him countless times that someone took your love letter and ran away.
I really get angry whenever I think about it.
This made Yu Qirong, who had just woken up, extremely angry. Her fair and rosy complexion showed some vitality, and she looked better than the sickly look she had yesterday.
This time, the four transfer students all knew that he was grumpy when waking up, so no one dared to offend him. As usual, they went to the dry toilet to solve their physiological problems under the supervision of Yu Qirong, and then went to the teaching building early.
The teaching building was empty in the early morning. The sunlight reflected off the glass, casting a warm light. Yu Qirong tentatively placed his hand on the door handle of the empty classroom.
Cool.
It seems that the fire has not started at this time.
Yu Qirong paused thoughtfully, then opened the door, and the scene he saw was similar to what he saw yesterday.
He stepped carefully into the empty classroom.
Nothing happened.
There was no choking smoke, no blazing flames, only a bright and clean classroom.
"It seems to be a cycle." Lu Pingsha touched the dust-free table in the classroom, looked around at the cleanliness, and calmly analyzed: "This classroom has been repeating time, but there must be a reason."
He looked at Yu Qirong and asked, "Do you have any clues? Is there anything written in that notebook?"
Lu Pingsha had been concerned about the notebook since yesterday. Yu Qirong looked at it very preciously, which made him conclude that it was the key to solving the problem.
Yu Qirong's butterfly-like eyelashes trembled, and she looked up at Lu Pingsha, "No, the notebook is blank. I just think that the notebook is beautiful."
Yu Qirong is not very short, and looks to be around 178cm tall, but she seems shorter than Lu Pingsha who is 186cm tall.
When he looks up from the bottom, his eyes will unconsciously widen and the corners of his eyes droop, making his expression look particularly innocent and pitiful, and his eyes are watery, as if he is acting coquettishly with people.
Lu Pingsha's heart skipped a beat. Even though he was clearly told that these were the usual tricks of the NPCs, he still couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
He tilted his head, made up his mind, and said firmly: "I can't believe you unless you show it to me."
Yu Qirong sighed softly, took out the well-packaged notebook, and showed it generously: "Look, they are all blank pages."
When he saw this notebook, he thought it was great. The paper quality and thickness were just right, and it was especially suitable for writing love letters. Yu Qirong felt that after he left this world, he would see Tang Xingfei again sooner or later.
No matter what, he must give an explanation when the time comes.
If he forgets, just write another one on the spot!
