79 -79: Surprising Information_1
“Hey!
What are you doing?”
The male student looked angrily at Qi Xiaoshuang, who was about to make an excuse when a familiar voice came from outside the door.
“Pei Yu, what are you up to again?
If you don’t like the dorms, you can just go home.
There’s no need to stick around here.”
“Tch!
As if I want to.
If it weren’t for my dad forbidding me to go home during the weekdays, you think I’d stay in such a dump?”
“Right, some weird person rushed in.
Check if they’re looking for you.
With the kind of people you know, it’s no surprise they barge in without a word!”
“Eh?
Looking for me?”
As Feng Yuan walked in scratching his head in confusion, Qi Xiaoshuang froze.
After examining Qi Xiaoshuang and thinking for a moment, Feng Yuan looked dissatisfiedly at Pei Yu and said,
“What nonsense are you spouting?
I don’t know her at all!
It must be trouble you’ve brought on yourself!”
“Damn it!
Since you say she’s not your friend, then I’ll call security!”
“…You go to your classes, I’ll handle this.”
“Remember you said that!
And I’m warning you both, don’t touch my stuff!”
As Pei Yu left the dorm with a warning glance at Feng Yuan and Qi Xiaoshuang, he picked up his textbook.
Feng Yuan looked at the tearful Qi Xiaoshuang and sighed,
“Who are you?
Why did you rush into our dorm so early in the morning?
By the looks of it, you must still be a junior high student, right?”
“I…”
“First, take a seat here.
Don’t sit on that petty guy’s bed or he really will blow up.”
Seeing Qi Xiaoshuang approaching Pei Yu’s bed, Feng Yuan hurriedly stopped her and pointed at his own bed, saying, “Sit here.” Qi Xiaoshuang seated herself on Feng Yuan’s bed and started to sob as she recounted her ordeal.
After listening, Feng Yuan looked at her with some confusion and said,
“You’re saying you’re from two years in the future?
And you also have a biological brother?
And he’s my good friend?”
Feng Yuan stroked his chin, thinking for a while, and then said,
“I can’t be certain about what you’re saying, because according to you…”
Qi Xiaoshuang looked up intently at Feng Yuan and said,
“You must have a way, right?”
“With what you’re saying, I also…”
“Can you get in touch with Lorraine Tower?
If I can find it, maybe I’ll be able to go back…”
“Lorraine Tower?
There’s no Divine Beast by that name.”
“How is that possible!”
“If you don’t believe me, you can look it up yourself.
Unless what you’re talking about is some never-seen Divine Beast, everything else should be searchable.”
Qi Xiaoshuang hurriedly took out her phone to look up information, then carefully put it back in her pocket, disappointed,
“How could this be…”
“What kind of Divine Beast is Lorraine Tower?
Maybe it’s called something different in different timelines?”
“Different timelines…”
As if reminded of something, Qi Xiaoshuang looked up at Feng Yuan and said,
“Lorraine Tower is a Time Series Divine Beast that is said to have control over time.
Our legend says that it’s always hidden in the Forest of Time, but just recently…
right before I got trapped here, it seems like Lorraine Tower came looking for you, but I don’t know what it told you…”
“A Time Series Divine Beast?”
Feng Yuan looked at Qi Xiaoshuang with some surprise and, watching her nervous expression, he closed his eyes and softly said,
“As far as I know, there is no Time Divine Beast in this timeline, not to mention ones who can control time, there’s none that can even use time-space abilities…”
“How can that be!”
“Ji?!”
“This is…”
When Feng Yuan pushed open the bathroom door, he saw Qi Chen lying on his bed looking at his phone.
Hesitating for a moment, he sat down on his own bed, and Xiao Ji poked his head out of the hood, looking around in surprise.
Looking at his clothes that were now a size too small, Feng Yuan sighed.
Startled by the strange noise, Qi Chen sat up and said in surprise,
“What happened to you?
Why are you wearing such strange clothes?
Are you homesick?”
“Ji?”
“Eggshell Chicken?
Isn’t it a bit too early for you to have a Spirit Beast now?”
Qi Chen hesitated for a moment, then looked at Feng Yuan and said,
“Tell Mr.
Mu about it later, see if maybe…
never mind, I have some money here.
It’s a loan for you; buy it some food.”
“Ji?”
Xiao Ji climbed on top of Feng Yuan’s head, looking puzzled at Qi Chen.
Feng Yuan smiled as he glanced at the money Qi Chen was offering him and said,
“No need, but thanks.”
“Why be polite?
It’s just a loan anyway.
Otherwise, what do you plan to do?”
“I’ll go out for a walk.”
“Hey!
Where do you think you’re going dressed like that in the middle of the night?”
“You don’t need to follow me, I have some things I need to handle alone, don’t worry~”
“How can I not worry…
I really don’t want to have to change roommates again in a few days.”
Feng Yuan shook his head while looking at Qi Chen’s anxious expression and said
“There are some special things that you can’t help with.”
Seeing Feng Yuan’s determined look, Qi Chen hesitated for a while before saying
“Then if there’s anything, you must remember to find a teacher, or if it’s really necessary, call the police immediately.”
“Got it~”
Feng Yuan waved his hand and walked out of the dormitory.
When he saw that there was no one around, he said softly
“Alright, no need to play dead anymore.”
“Ow~”
“Ji?”
Feng Yuan reached out and gently patted the head of the Dreaming Dragon Baby on his shoulder and said
“We probably ran into a false past, and I don’t know where the others are now, but it seems Qi Chen and us are not in the same false past…”
Feng Yuan said this with a bit of a headache, and then he gave the Dreaming Dragon Baby a few instructions to maintain its disguise in front of other people before walking out to the dormitory’s main entrance.
That’s when the dormitory guard said to him
“What are you doing?
Going out so late?
We’re about to lock up!”
“Got a bit of an emergency…”
“Any emergencies should be reported to your homeroom teacher first!
If it’s really urgent, leave a registration here!”
Seeing Feng Yuan turning around and heading back upstairs, the guard muttered dissatisfiedly
“What kind of people are these!
Staying out all night and even bringing an Eggshell Chicken, if you’re so wealthy, why stay in the dorm at all!”
“Did you manage it?”
Seeing Feng Yuan return, Qi Chen let out a breath and said.
Feng Yuan shook his head, pushed open the door, walked to the balcony, and turning his head said
“Nope, the uncle stopped me.”
“So, what are you planning now?”
“Just going to find another way out.”
“Hey!”
Seeing Feng Yuan flip over the balcony railing, Qi Chen hurriedly rushed over.
Watching as Feng Yuan spread out jet-black wings and flew towards the grove, Qi Chen touched his forehead helplessly and said
“This guy really knows how to cause trouble…”
Remembering something, Qi Chen quickly went to Feng Yuan’s closet, took out Feng Yuan’s clothes and laid them on Feng Yuan’s bed to create a decoy, as if Feng Yuan was still lying in the bed.
With a sigh, he turned off the light, Qi Chen lay in his own bed with his eyes open, unable to fall asleep.
“First, I need to find Hong Zhi; logically, he should also be in the same false time as us.”
“Ji~”
Xiao Ji comfortably lay atop Feng Yuan’s head.
Feng Yuan arrived at the bus stop and took out his phone to check the time, saying helplessly
“What a hassle, I’ve even missed the last bus.
Do I really have to walk to Maomu First High?”
“Ow~”
“It’s easy for you to say, you’re not the one walking, right?”
“Ow~”
Feng Yuan reached out and poked the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s smug little head.
Just then, a White Wolf leaped out from a nearby alley.
The White Wolf grew in size in front of Feng Yuan, upon which Feng Yuan mounted the White Wolf Deity and galloped towards Maomu First High.
“Hong Zhi?
Where are you going?”
“Just stepping out for some air.”
Yang Hongzhi cradling Najia said to the others in the dorm, then turned and walked onto the corridor, looked up at the starry sky, and said to Najia
“The high school days, huh…
I kind of miss them~”
“Gina?”
“Too bad this mirage is a bit of trouble, I can’t even find the direction to break it.”
Yang Hongzhi, a bit frustrated, scratched his head.
Najia reached out with its little hand and gently patted Yang Hongzhi.
Yang Hongzhi, smiling, said
“Thanks, I don’t know why, but those phantoms all seem so real…
just like real people.”
“Could they be any less real when they are real people?”
“Who!”
Yang Hongzhi turned around nervously only to find Feng Yuan standing there with a smile, squinting his eyes, he said
“Who are you?”
“Stop pretending, I don’t believe you don’t recognize me.
You’re holding Najia in your arms which means you’re obviously unaffected.”
“Gina~”
