Chapter 9
——
Wu Yue's recent life is like this:
Looking forward to school > looking forward to going home > looking forward to school > looking forward to going home.
Then... on weekends, when you don't need to work or when you finish working, go out to play.
Alone, or with two people.
Since the time Youyu moved into her house, her life has been like this.
"It's been two weeks until now."
In the classroom, Wu Yue's mouth couldn't help but rise as she propped up her chin and looked at the scenery outside the window.
In the past two weeks, her life has changed dramatically.
For example, she never worried about going home before, but now she wants to go home as soon as possible.
In the past, she didn't care about the length of her part-time job, and even thought that the longer the better, but now, she has reduced her part-time job to one, but she still hopes that the working hours are as short as possible.
"It seems that I have really changed a lot because of him..."
While muttering this, Wu Yue also felt a little funny. Was she such an easy person to deal with? In just two weeks, she had become so strange.
But it was not strange.
After all, she felt that she and Youyu were too similar in some aspects. During this period of life, the similarity became more and more obvious.
The so-called similarity... is it the same kind of feeling? Should I say that?
Because, no matter what she did, whether it was outrageous, strange, or difficult, as long as there was a need, Youyu would be the first to stand up and help her, just like her, completely disregarding the consequences, to help her do that thing.
Even because of this reason, he was injured again.
This looks like her former self.
It's like meeting "the same kind".
So, she could only helplessly scold Youyu with the words her grandmother had scolded her before, and then help him treat his wounds.
Then remember this in my heart and give back next time.
Although it is troublesome, it is also very happy.
Just rely on each other and help each other.
Sure enough, life with two people is much more interesting than that with one person.
"Ding————"
"Oh? Time is up?"
"Then classmates, this class is over here, I won't delay the class, let's go home!"
"Okay!"
After the teacher's "school is over" notice was issued, the excited students in the classroom quickly packed up their schoolbags, and some even packed up their things a few minutes before school was about to end.
And Wu Yue has now become one of them.
"Huh! School is finally over!"
"So what should I eat after I go home today?"
Thinking so beautifully in her heart, Wu Yue carried her schoolbag and walked out of the school gate.
Even the gradually gloomy weather... couldn't stop the beauty in her heart.
"..."
And in the dark she didn't know.
A girl with blue hair and wearing the same school uniform as her was staring at her with purple pupils.
Watching Wu Yue's departing back, the girl's eyes revealed a look of surprise.
"Is there really such a thing..."
"That person..."
"Does he have potential too?"
————
"Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!"
After riding her bicycle to the bus stop in the rain, Wu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alas! Does it always rain so heavily after school... It seems I can't go home for the time being."
Just now, on the way home from school, the gloomy weather finally couldn't be suppressed and it started to rain, forcing Wu Yue, who didn't bring an umbrella, to hide under a bus stop.
The weather after school today was really weird! She had clearly checked the weather forecast yesterday, and it wouldn't rain in the near future.
But, it happened to rain today!
It's really unlucky!
"Fortunately, I have plenty of time now, otherwise, if it were in the past, I might have to rush to work in the rain..."
Just as Wu Yue was thinking this, the phone in her schoolbag suddenly rang.
"Calling at this time... um?... It's Youyu."
After taking out her phone and seeing the caller's information displayed on the phone, Wu Yue was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Calling at this time... Are you coming to pick me up?"
Predicting this in her heart, Wu Yue answered the phone.
"Hello, hello? Wu Yue, can you hear me?"
"Yeah, I can hear you, it's raining hard now... Are you coming to pick me up? I remember you are still working now? Is it okay?Actually, I can wait until the rain stops before going back."
"It's okay. I've asked my boss for leave. Besides, the rain is not right this time. The weather forecast just said that it may continue to rain until tomorrow morning."
"Uh! Is it so exaggerated..."
"Well! You wait for me there now. I'll pick you up now!"
"...Thank you."
After the call, Wu Yue hung up the phone.
"This rain...is not without effect~"
Although the gloomy weather ruined her mood just now.
But now, it's getting better again.
The reason...is simple and clear.
"Then I can take advantage of this time to review today's content."
After all, You Yu has said that he will be responsible for the money in the future, and asked her not to think too much and study hard.
But he still couldn't persuade her and let her bear part of the financial source.
But because of this, she has to study harder!
"Hmm! Then I'll start from here--"
"Boom--!"
"?! What's that sound?"
Just at this moment, a rumble suddenly came from the other side of the road, interrupting her review.
Along with the rumble came the thick smoke that was ten meters high, and the debris of the road flying everywhere.
"Then, did something happen there?"
Looking at the place where the accident seemed to have happened, after hesitating for a while, Wu Yue finally chose to sigh, then frowned, walked across the road in the heavy rain.
She has never been a person who sits and waits for death when encountering things, and does nothing, and it is the same now.
So, she wants to see if anyone has suffered an accident because of this sudden situation.
"Tap tap tap... Boom! "
But before she could get close to the place where the accident happened, a rumble sounded from there again, and the smoke that blocked her sight was also "shaken" away by the rumble sound.
It was at this moment.
She saw... it can be said that it was a scene that she would never forget.
"... this, this is?!"
Wu Yue's voice couldn't stop shaking.
Because she saw an extremely huge, impossible to appear in nature - a giant bat!
It was like a monster in a fantasy work like another world, with its fangs and claws bared!
And at this moment, the bat aimed its claws at a small thing in front of it.
That thing... was a person, a little girl about 5 or 6 years old!
"! ! Danger!"
Seeing this scene, Wu Yue didn't have time to think, her body acted faster than her mind.
"Bang! "
When she reacted, she had already fallen to the ground, and the little girl was held in her arms.
Feeling the pain on her back, Wu Yue forced herself to stand up with the little girl, smiling and saying:
"Huh... It was close... Are you okay?"
"I, I'm fine... But big sister, you...?"
"Ah! Do you mean the red ones behind? Just paint."
"But... But..."
"Okay! Let's go quickly! Otherwise, I will be unhappy, okay?"
Before the little girl finished speaking, Wu Yue pushed her forcefully and asked her to leave her side. The meaning was obvious, that is, to let her run away.
The little girl was still a little hesitant at first, but after hearing a woman calling her name, she finally ran away crying.
"... That's it. "
After watching her leave, Wu Yue finally couldn't hold on and fell to her knees.
Looking back, she saw the huge bat slowly approaching her.
"..."
It was at this moment that she realized.
Because of her "kindness", her life had reached the worst point in history.
Maybe...
She was going to die.
