"So this story is connected to Amada High School..."
"Those horror stories in this world are actually just broken down from events that happen in every place in this world?"
"Is it possible that my identity is..."
In the taxi, Qianye was thinking.
After he came to this story, he soon discovered that he was a student at Amada High School.
The desks and chairs in the school are very new, and the window cabinets are not as worn and old as in the previous story of "Adam High School".
Everything seemed to be confirmed to him.
The idea that popped into his head before was correct.
The next story that follows Amada High School may be its prequel...
It's just that the content about "mother" this time may be a small episode.
If you think about it in terms of novel structure.
Maybe it's a branch line...
"Brother, where did you get this big bag? I didn't even see it when I went to study in the morning."
Xixi, who was sitting next to Qianye, looked at the big bag behind him and couldn't help but wonder.
Just like before, when entering this world.
Real-life items can be brought in.
The big dark green bag was currently being carried behind Qianye, and Cai Yanan's ax was also tied around his waist.
However, because the school uniform was too wide, the ax was covered up.
"This... this contains a birthday gift for you. Of course, it's a surprise and I can't tell you what's inside."
Qianye replied without blushing and without a beating heart.
He had read in a novel that his sister's birthday fell on the last day of the National Day holiday, so he took advantage of the situation and spread the word.
"Gift?"
Upon hearing the news, Qian Xixi's eyes lit up.
She had never received any gifts before, and even her birthdays were explained as "Mother's Day", let alone the New Year or something like that.
In my mother's mind, the meaning of the festival is to recall what happened on that day in the past.
Memorials are OK.
But there is no need to make any rituals for the festival.
Mom thinks it's a pastime for boring people.
Xixi, who grew up under this kind of ideological indoctrination, has become numb to holiday gifts because she knows she will not have them.
Because I am more sensible.
She never asked for anything she needed.
But no matter what.
As a young girl, when she sees other classmates having holiday gifts, she will also look forward to having them herself at some point.
"Shh, don't tell mom."
Chino stepped into her own role and played the role of "Chino" living in this world seriously.
"Uh-huh!"
Xixi nodded happily and kept silent about the matter.
Although she didn't know why her brother felt different from usual today, the moment she felt happy after hearing the gift, she had no intention of digging into the problem.
If there is something, if there is nothing.
Qianye seemed to still be able to feel Xixi quietly looking at her big backpack from time to time.
"What would her expression be like if she knew that all the survival tools I put here are..."
Qianye thought silently in his mind.
…
There is not much difference from the time in calculation.
The road was surprisingly smooth and the taxi did not encounter a red light while driving.
In addition, it was raining and not many people were on the street, so when the two of them got home, it was only eight minutes before school was over.
"We're back!"
Qian Xixi opened the door to the living room and called home as usual.
The house is decorated in an old-fashioned way, which is the first thing you see after opening the door.
It's a coal stove placed in the living room.
Some rusty smoke exhaust pipes stretched out from the fire and poked out from the top of the window, and the fire smoke was exhausted along the pipes.
There was a pot of stewed beans on the fire, making a sizzling sound.
Behind the sliding door of the kitchen, a figure wearing a dark sweater stood there, holding a kitchen knife in his hand and chopping bones on the chopping board...
There are some cross-stitches about "Home and Everything Happiness" hanging on the wall, the colors are a bit bright.
The TV opposite the sofa is also a big-head style that Qianye has not seen in real life for a long time. A very old martial arts movie is playing on the narrow screen...
After Qian Xixi finished speaking, no one responded to her.
Regarding some details about the home, Qianye's novel did not make it very clear.
So after entering this strange family, the first thing he did was to be more vigilant, observe the differences in various places, and try his best to hide that he was not actually a "Qian Ye" in this world.
Qian Xixi walked into the living room minding her own business, put her schoolbag on the sofa, then picked up the public kettle covered with white gauze next to the TV and poured herself a glass of water.
There is no multilingualism.
Qianye followed his sister's lead and walked in, but not very fast, because it would make it easier for him to observe the general condition of the house.
The room layout is three bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.
It is mentioned in the novel that Qianye's room was at the far end. After finding his bedroom, he walked straight in without hesitation and put his big bag on the bed in the bedroom.
Suddenly got involved in this "strange family".
In order to avoid other family members noticing that something is wrong, the best way is to treat this place directly as your own home.
Of course, just in case.
The ax on his body was not put down.
The large school uniform that he had not changed into could help him cover the ax fastened to his waist.
Through understanding the situation of his character in the novel panel, Qianye knew that he should take a shower or do his homework at this time, so that his "mother" would not nag him.
But just when Qianye was about to take out his notebook and pen and pretend to do his homework.
There were words outside the bedroom.
"Let's eat first, and we'll do our homework later."
The voice is very cold, a bit unlike a middle-aged woman...
Qianye gave up the idea of doing homework, walked out of the bedroom obediently, and then sat obediently by the fire in the living room.
The figure in the kitchen walked out, and only then did Qianye finally see what his "mother" looked like.
to be honest.
He couldn't believe that she was already the mother of two children who were in their third year of high school. Except that her clothes looked a bit old and mature, her face was unusually young.
Just like a graceful woman who has just entered society.
Light make-up adorns her almost perfect facial features. Except for her face, which is a little too sickly and pale, she is simply beautiful.
"The old guy will be here soon. Don't touch the food yet."
Mom said expressionlessly as she placed the rich and tempting looking dishes one after another on the fire table.
The fragrant hot air rushed into Qianye's nose, and he suddenly felt a sense of hunger in his stomach, and an irresistible desire to eat arose spontaneously.
Out of reason.
He resisted the idea of trying the food first.
Dong Dong...
There was a knock on the door.
Mom wiped her hands with the rag on the table and opened the door.
Behind the door was a middle-aged man with a serious face. Next to the man was a girl about the same age as Qian Xixi who was carrying a schoolbag.
Qianye's gaze moved over, and his eyes narrowed unobtrusively.
