Outside the corridor.
"I'm sorry, Qiye, I'm really sorry!" Li Yifei stood there, lowered his head, and kept admitting his mistakes. "I was so scared at the time, I, I didn't think too much, I just ran away...
I left you and Jiang Qian where you are, and I caused her...
I don't expect you to forgive me, but we are classmates after all, and I still hope to apologize to you!
sorry!"
Li Yifei didn't dare to look into Lin Qiye's eyes, but his words were very sincere.
After he finished speaking, Lin Qiye slowly spoke.
"When you encounter danger, it's human nature to run away first. There's nothing wrong with that." Lin Qiye patted his shoulder. "Besides, if it was me at that time, I would have run faster than you."
Li Yifei: …
Li Yifei scratched his head, as if he had thought of something: "By the way, did you also sign the confidentiality agreement?"
Lin Qiye was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
It seems that Zhao Kongcheng did not lie to him. They would indeed not do anything to witnesses. It was only natural that Li Yifei signed a confidentiality agreement after escaping from the monster that night and being discovered by them.
If he guessed correctly, Liu Yuan also signed the same agreement.
Although he hasn't signed it yet, it's only a matter of time. If he tells Li Yifei now that he hasn't signed it yet, it would be difficult to explain.
"Actually, even if they don't let me sign, I won't tell anyone." Li Yifei sighed, "I don't want to remember that scene again in my life...
What's more, if I violate the agreement after signing it, I will have to spend the rest of my life in prison. I don't want to end my life with my own hands."
Li Yifei put his hands on the railing of the corridor, looking down at the bustling campus below, with a hint of longing in his eyes.
"In fact, I would like to join them."
Lin Qiye asked in surprise: "Do you want to join them?"
"Yes, I mentioned it when I signed the agreement. I was willing to give up my studies and join them, but unfortunately... they didn't want me."
"Why do you want to join? Although your grades are not very good, aren't you about to be admitted to the Sports College as an exception?"
"It's so boring to be a sports student. No, it should be said... it's so boring to be an ordinary person." Li Yifei's eyes gradually brightened.
"Join a mysterious and powerful organization, silently fight against the enemies hidden in human society, and make countless contributions. When the day comes when all this comes to light, the world will remember my name!"
Li Yifei clenched his fists and said excitedly: "This is the dream of many men. This is a meaningful life!"
"You are thinking too well." Lin Qiye mercilessly broke his fantasy, "Perhaps you will die in the first mission, be bitten into eight pieces by monsters, and be buried in the mountains without a name. Your parents may not even know about your death, and you can only leave this world alone."
Li Yifei: "… "
"Qianye, your imagination is too bloody, isn't it?"
"This is not imagination." Lin Qiye shook his head, "What you just said is true."
Li Yifei sighed helplessly, "Anyway, since they don't want me, there's no need for me to think so much. I just need to take this secret with me into the grave."
"Yeah." Lin Qiye glanced at the time, "It's time to go back. Class is about to start."
The two walked back to the classroom. Lin Qiye could feel that Li Yifei was obviously much more relaxed than before. It seemed that his guilt towards Lin Qiye and Jiang Qian really brought him great pressure.
Although both Li Yifei and Liu Yuan wanted to escape, they made completely different choices.
As for Liu Yuan, Lin Qiye had no interest in causing trouble for him, but if there was a chance in the future, he wouldn't mind teaching him a lesson.
After finishing a day's classes, Lin Qiye picked up his schoolbag and walked home.
The deaths of Wang Shao and Jiang Qian two days ago caused a lot of trouble to the school. Under pressure, the school had to cancel the evening self-study system and let the students go home early.
However, what Lin Qiye did not expect was that the night watchman seemed to have very high authority. Generally speaking, after two students died in succession, people like Lin Qiye and Li Yifei who had been with the deceased would inevitably be questioned by the police.
But two days had passed since the incident and still no one had come to look for them.
It seems that the night watchmen have completely taken over the case, and their authority is high enough to make the local police keep silent about the matter.
As we walked, the sky gradually darkened and a drizzle began to fall.
It was only a little after six o'clock, but the sky was already dark.
Lin Qiye frowned. He didn’t bring an umbrella, so he could only walk home with big strides.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and when Lin Qiye hurried home, he was already soaked like a drowned chicken. However, as soon as he opened the door, a strong aroma of food hit him in the face, extinguishing all the negative emotions in his heart.
"Oh! Xiaoqi, kid, why are you so wet?" When the aunt, who was busy in the kitchen, saw Lin Qiye's appearance, she hurried forward.
"It's raining heavily outside and I didn't bring an umbrella today." Lin Qiye said with a smile.
"If you don't have an umbrella, find a place to hide, or call your aunt and she will pick you up. What if you catch a cold if you come back in the wet?" said my aunt in feigned anger.
Lin Qiye scratched his head happily and said nothing.
"Go and wipe it quickly. Oh, by the way, your teacher came to see you just now, and I asked him to wait in your room." Aunt seemed to remember something.
"Teacher?" Lin Qiye was stunned.
"Yes, it's your physical education teacher. He said he wants to see you for something. Go meet him quickly and don't keep him waiting."
Lin Qiye held the towel and wiped his hair blankly.
What the hell, the PE teacher came to see him? He had just transferred to another school a few days ago and hadn't even taken a PE class yet, why was he looking for him
Could it be...
An idea flashed through Lin Qiye's mind. He dropped the towel and hurriedly opened the door to his room.
He saw a familiar middle-aged man leaning in a chair, holding a teacup and looking at him with a smile.
Lin Qiye frowned slightly, "It's you? How did you find my house?"
Zhao Kongcheng smiled slightly, picked up the emblem on the table and shook it, "Since you dumped me that night, I've become more cautious. I put this thing in your pocket last night. It can locate you."
Lin Qiye locked the door and walked straight to the bed and sat down. "I said, I won't join you."
"I know, so that's not why I came here this time."
"So you're here to ask me to sign a confidentiality agreement?"
"Not really." Zhao Kongcheng shook his head. "I reported to others that you were missing. Since I decided to let you go, I can't ask you to sign the agreement. Otherwise, if they know you are not missing, they will send others to lobby you.
They...are not as easy to deal with as I am."
Lin Qiye was stunned, "So you are here..."
Zhao Kongcheng took out a roll of brown paper from his pocket, placed it on Lin Qiye's desk, and slowly opened it...
"The treatment of a night watchman is much better than you think. I have worked for so many years and I still have quite a bit of savings." Zhao Kongcheng said mutteringly as he opened the brown paper.
The moment the kraft paper was opened, Lin Qiye's eyes fixed.
Inside was a thick stack of money.
