Chapter 31: Students are like lambs. Li An folds the paper slowly. The paper is folded...
Li An folds paper slowly.
The paper was folded up, and the fingers pressed across the long curved gap, slowly flattening it, leaving a straight mark.
She hasn't played with origami in a while.
But after revisiting it today, I feel like I haven’t forgotten much.
At least she was able to fold the paper knife smoothly.
A thin piece of silver colored paper turned into a goose-feather knife under her hand.
The blade is narrow and thin, and its curved shape resembles a goose feather when viewed from the side. It is a traditional ancient sword and looks very murderous.
Li An picked up the paper knife and swung it twice.
Even though the paper was folded layer by layer, it was still too light. I couldn't feel anything when I waved it, only a faint sound of breaking through the air.
Holding a paper knife, Li An walked through the corridor and came to the shelves on the walls.
She planned to put it on a shelf; it didn't seem pointless to keep it in the hallway.
Just when she was still struggling, the phone rang.
A very crisp sound, accompanied by a dull "dong".
The guest fell to the ground, dazed, and struggled to stand up.
Li An arched her eyebrows.
It's so cute, and the way it flutters its four hooves around is also cute.
Li'an couldn't quite tell the type of sheep, but its curly fur looked soft and elastic.
She thought, then just treat it as a sheep.
As to whether it is true or not, it doesn’t really matter.
Watching the young sheep finally stand up on its own four hooves.
Then a question mark that was about to materialize slid down from its forehead.
Li An was about to speak.
The sheep had already run into the corner - in the middle it tried to push the door open, but couldn't - and tried to hide itself in the shelf.
Li An changed the way he held the knife, so that the blade of the paper knife faced the other side.
Then she asked, "What are you doing here?"
*
for what?
Of course it’s because I was cheated!
Bai Li shivered and huddled in the corner.
She had just escaped from the party, and no vampire had noticed her escape yet.
But the vampire's territory was so huge that she ran in one direction for a long time but couldn't see the end.
Until she stumbled into here by accident.
In fact, it is very different from the style of vampires. The lighting here is warm and bright, the light aromatherapy smells soothing, and tall shelves stand against the wall.
But this is vampire territory!
The shopkeeper holding the knife didn't come closer and seemed good-tempered enough to wait for her to answer.
But Bai Li was a little afraid. Even if she didn't consider the fact that the owner was very likely a vampire, she didn't dare to speak at all.
Her life was shallower than paper, and her ordinary experiences had not a single bit of experience to inform her.
—Why she felt breathless when she saw the shop owner.
——Why did she want to kneel down like this, without making any sound, and crawl quietly on the ground.
Bai Li tried hard not to kneel down. She thought, maybe this was the aura of a big shot.
Finally she struggled and squatted down against the corner.
It feels much better to squat down, at least it's more comfortable than standing.
Bai Li looked up, and only then did she notice the knife in the owner's hand.
She was stunned.
It was a silver knife.
Bai Li knew nothing about knives, but identifying silver was a basic skill for residents of District 17, and she would never make a mistake.
It was a knife made entirely of silver.
So the shop owner can't be a vampire, otherwise he would have died under this knife long ago.
It would never be possible to play with it so easily.
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief.
But her legs were weak and she couldn't stand up.
The poor secondary education students didn't know that there were vampires who were not afraid of silver.
Because this is something that is only taught in advanced education, this kind of vampire is also a high-level existence among the blood clan and will not appear easily.
Bai Li squatted in the corner, trying to look up at the store manager. She actually had no idea whether the store manager was a good person or a bad person, but she subconsciously thought that the other party could be trusted.
She said glumly, "I want to go home."
Then Bai Li asked anxiously: "Can you help me?"
There are many ordinary people who were deceived and captured like her, and among them is her twin sister.
Bai Li couldn't bear to leave others behind and go back alone. She ran out this time to ask for help, but she couldn't get out after running for a long time.
The shopkeeper looked her in the eyes and after a moment said, "I can give you something."
"You have to help yourself."
Bai Li lowered her head dejectedly, hugged her knees and buried her face in her arms.
Herself? She wasn't a hunter. She had just completed her secondary education graduation exam a few days ago, and soon she would choose a university of her choice to continue her studies.
She was just an ordinary student who had never fought before. How could she rescue everyone from a party of dozens of vampires?
The best outcome in Bai Li's mind was that she found help from the Hunter Association in time.
...Although she was deceived by the association members, she still yearned for the association in her heart. Every time she wrote in her life wish, she wanted to join the association and work. She could do a clerical job and provide help within her ability.
A black cat came out of nowhere and walked up to her.
It rested its tail on her arm.
"You're not going to go on like this, are you?"
Bai Li's eyes widened, shock overwhelmed by the sadness of self-pity.
——How can a cat talk!?
The owner waved gently, and the black cat strolled back, sat at the owner's feet, tucked its tail in, and coiled itself up.
Is it the owner's pet?
No, it could be some supernatural power that he hasn't learned yet, maybe the ability to make cats talk, or the ability to materialize a talking cat.
In short, students who have received secondary education firmly do not believe that cats can talk in real life.
After being interrupted like this, Bai Li didn't feel as uncomfortable as before.
She looked at the shop owner, and her eyes fell on the knife in his hand.
The student was torn between her own conscience and her own desires, but she finally said, "I want this knife."
How do you know you can't beat her if you don't try? What if she is actually a genius hunter who has been buried?
Bai Li comforted herself.
The black cat squatted down and broke her fantasy, "You have nothing."
It said firmly: "Except your soul, you have nothing worth exchanging."
She is just an ordinary lamb, with no talent and no ability.
She only has her soul to exchange.
The lamb struggled for a while.
Bai Li didn't know what the soul exchange meant, and her limited knowledge of superpowers couldn't help.
But she knew that if she couldn't kill all the vampires tonight, someone would die.
She clenched her fists, the desire to save people taking over again.
"good."
She had never seen a disembodied soul.
But she has seen many ordinary people living down to earth.
No one deserves to die at a vampire's banquet.

"What use do I have for the little lamb's soul?"
Li An was too tired to complain.
How come this time the item I was holding was also bought by the customer? Does holding it in my hand have a buff that increases the transaction probability?
The black cat swung its tail happily: "No matter how ordinary a soul it is, it is still the soul of an intelligent creature."
"It's also made of the finest materials and has the highest quality energy. If that doesn't work, I can use it as a errand."
"Besides, she clearly made a profit by exchanging her soul for the knife."
Li An didn't comment. She thought it was dark to say such things casually. Anyway, she didn't think a paper knife was that precious.
Never mind, it doesn't matter.
The black cat followed her closely: "What are you going to do now?"
Li An put out a dozen colored papers and said, "Make something."
She couldn't explain why, but after the deal was done, her ideas flooded her mind and she couldn't wait to put the things in her mind into words.
"What are you folding?"
"A city."
