At dusk, the sun was sleeping under the distant mountains, and the afterglow was shining on the concrete city. A large number of students were leaving school.
"Have you heard? Recently, the gods issued an oracle that the black fog can be dispelled by playing games." The girl with a schoolbag on her back chatted.
"Ah? Playing games can save the world? This is too ridiculous." The boy next to him muttered.
"Shh... keep your voice down! The first game is called "Cat and Her", and someone has been playing it for a long time! It is said that the player is a young genius named Yi Zhongyu!" The girl's eyes were full of stars.
Su Ming stood quietly on the street, feeling dazed. He had not been exposed to such a bustling crowd for a long time. All he could see were mountains and tombs.
Xiao An's voice rang in my ears: "Su Mingan, I want to learn piano."
"I've played it many times over the past few hundred years. Don't tell me you haven't learned it yet." Su Ming'an responded indifferently.
"Why are you always indifferent to me? For hundreds of years, I have often chatted with you, but you are not close to me at all." Xiao An's voice sounded a little aggrieved.
"...Don't talk to me in that tone. I'll take you to find the piano." Su Mingan felt his scalp tingling after hearing that.
A slight laugh came from my mind, and Xiao An seemed very happy.
"Su Ming'an, there are only three years left. How do you want to spend it? How about we become game anchors?" Xiao An's voice was clear and lively. He was the embodiment of "goodness", just like a carefree college student version of Su Ming'an.
"I don't have that much energy." Su Mingan refused.
"Then how about we go to school? Look, Yueyue's reincarnation is also going to school." Xiao An pointed to the high school in the distance.
"……don't want."
"You have to believe me, going to school is a very pleasant and happy thing, there will definitely be more 'good'. In order to pass the level perfectly..."
"……OK."
…
“Someone actually got the last question wrong in the joint entrance exam for eight schools. If you get it wrong again, you’ll have to copy the question a hundred times!” The middle-aged female teacher roared, her saliva spraying all over the faces of the students in the first row.
A leaf fell from the sycamore tree outside the window, and Su Mingan looked out the window with his chin in his hand.
...This feeling of sitting in the classroom made him feel like he was dreaming.
"One point in the college entrance examination equals a playground full of people. Five points equals how many people? Five playgrounds!!" The female teacher slammed the table heavily, shocking the fifty or so students in the class. "Look at this question - [In the year 819 of the old days, why did the gods issue an oracle to seize a blue glass bottle?] I have explained this question countless times. The answer is that there are contraband in the glass bottle. Why are there still people writing nonsense..."
She pulled out a test paper: "Next is the test paper - Shen Yue, 136 points."
A pretty girl walked up to the podium and received the test paper, her black hair tied into a neat ponytail.
"Zhou Chengtian, 131 points."
"Jiang Xiaoshan, 127 points."
"Tao Meng, 126 points."
"Su Xiaobai..." The teacher frowned when he read this: "Su Xiaobai, you are the most rebellious in the class. You can answer such difficult questions, but you always write nonsense on some inexplicable questions. Look at the last question you wrote - 'Because the glass bottle is a special medicine to solve the black fog disease, in order to ensure the stability of the Millennium Plan, the gods need to pass the glass bottle to the most suitable person, so that the savior He summons will be under His control from the beginning. But fortunately, the gods failed to stop the glass bottle, and the efforts of the fire bearers allowed the savior to be born in the safe Inaya City'..."
When the teacher read out the answer, the whole class burst into laughter. Some students even laughed so hard that their noses and tears came out.
"Every time the test papers are distributed, what I look forward to most is Su Xiaobai's answer. His imagination is really blown away. What Millennium Plan! What Savior! Under the protection of the gods, what danger can we be in!" The students whispered, and the classroom was filled with a happy atmosphere.
"Hey! In the last three mock exams, there was a question about the significance of the Human Self-Saving Alliance's founding charter. This was the easiest question that would easily get you points. But Su Xiaobai wrote, 'Su Mingan made it up casually, it has no significance.' It really made me laugh to death! Who is Su Mingan? Is he his relative? Hahaha..."
Su Mingan went up to the stage to receive the test paper and met the disappointed gaze of Teacher Jiang.
"You have to think about your future. The college entrance examination is not a joke. You cannot offend the majesty of the gods." Teacher Jiang didn't know what to say. She had already scolded Su Xiaobai, but she was completely unmoved. She could only read the next test paper:
"Su Wensheng, 123 points."
The spring evening breeze blew the leaves of the sycamore tree outside the window. The dark green leaves playfully scraped across the iron railings, making a rustling sound.
The black-haired boy in a blue and white striped school uniform walked towards the podium with a calm expression and passed by Su Mingan who was walking down the stage.
The moment their shoulders brushed against each other, it was like an electric shock. The two seemed to sense something and turned their heads at the same time tacitly, and their eyes met for a moment.
The leaves of the sycamore tree spun and swayed slowly, brushing against his shoulders. Su Wensheng's eyes moved slightly, and the sunset remained in his dark eyes, reflecting the similar dark eyes that were close at hand.
Time slowed down for a moment in Su Ming'an's perception. He looked back at Su Wensheng, and the blue and white school uniforms made a slight sound of colliding.
Their faces were not similar, and their eye shapes were not the same, so anyone could tell them apart at a glance. But when they looked at each other, the difference in eye shape suddenly blurred, and suddenly they saw the similarities hidden under the surface, and they both had an illusion of looking in a mirror.
Su Mingan used to be self-deprecating because he was not as good as Qinwang, Aketo and others, but later it was Su Wensheng's turn to feel inferior because he was not as good as Su Mingan - they even had the same inferiority complex. This made Su Mingan fully realize what it means to "whatever world you are born into, you are likely to become that person."
