The bright new moon was now shrouded by a few clouds, and it began to rain heavily again.
"We...are not the kind of intimate relationship where we can sit face-to-face calmly, right?"
The place where Agnes is sitting at this time is on the fifth floor of the school library. Of course, she is sitting here not because she is interested in the collection of books at Chenglie High School. The reason is just that it is relatively close to the old teaching building.
, you can see the teaching building from the library.
She held a telescope bought by someone from outside and looked at the old teaching building from time to time. But not long after, Agnes noticed that someone was coming to her side.
Dong Xie.
He sat opposite her.
Hence, the opening paragraph of Agnes.
Agnes stared at Dong Xie coldly, she knew that he hated her because he always cared about Isabella Crisfield.
Dong Xie pulled out his chair and sat opposite Agnes.
"There's not much use in hating you. The road we're on is a dance with death, and not many people have the chance to reach the end."
"You don't have to pretend in front of me, Scorpion. You just know that you can't beat me, otherwise you could have killed me long ago. Devil's Messenger, haven't you killed me before?"
Dong Xie's complexion suddenly turned a little pale.
"It's just that you love yourself more than Isabella Crisfield. You don't dare to do anything to me, because for you, survival is the first priority."
Dong Xie's hands clenched tightly. He wanted to deny it, but...he sadly discovered that Agnes's words were true.
"But... it's nothing." Agnes continued to stare at the old teaching building outside the window, then picked up the telescope and looked at it: "After all... selfishness is the survival instinct of living things, and there is nothing wrong with living for yourself.
Wrong. When human beings shout "put yourself in someone else's shoes," they often think about others putting themselves in their shoes, rather than them thinking in others' shoes. So it's the same with me. I love myself more than anyone else in the world.
, and I don’t feel any guilt in having this idea. In fact... the same goes for the hypocrite Wilvin Gominik. Don’t look at him saying he hates the devil’s messenger, but it’s just because he has been blessed by God. I believe
You will have eternal life after death, so there is no need to sell yourself to the devil. There are many people in history who use the name of God to eradicate dissidents, just like his Jewish ancestors."
Dong Xie moved his lips, and then he pulled his chair back.
"I came to you to ask you about Gao Ying. Gao Ying..."
Speaking of this, Dong Xie looked towards the old teaching building and said, "Is he facing there?"
"Yeah." Agnes nodded, "Are you going to go in and help? I think Gao Ying will be very happy."
"...I, I think..."
"I know you don't dare. It's okay. He can be resurrected even if he dies. The noble blood of our family will not die here easily."
In the telescope, because it was too dark, Agnes could not see anything from the window of the teaching building. And at this distance, she could not perceive anything.
Dong Xie also looked towards the teaching building in the distance. He was still frightened now. He knew that if he went into the teaching building to help Gao Ying, the latter would be grateful and favor him in the future, but...
He still didn't dare.
Just as Agnes said, in his heart, he always puts his own life first. Because of this, even if he hates Agnes for being cruel to Isabella, it is difficult to put his hatred aside.
Take action. From this point of view, he is actually a hypocrite. In movies, TV dramas and novels, he always likes to be higher than life, creating a group of saint protagonists who regard their lives as dirt, but in reality, such people are
This devil's exam won't last long at all. People like these people because they are good for themselves, but not many people are really willing to accept death.
"Do you want to take a look?"
Agnes handed the telescope to Dong Xie.
He took the telescope and picked it up slowly. Because he was too nervous, he even held it upside down at first.
"Look...can't see clearly, it's too dark..."
Inside the telescope, the windows on every floor of the old teaching building were completely dark.
He took off the telescope, noticed the mobile phone placed in front of Agnes, and said, "Are you going to keep in touch with Gao Ying at any time?"
Agnes nodded and said: "Of course. Although it may not have any effect. But after all, I learned a lot about the exam."
Dong Xie picked up the telescope and looked over again. Suddenly, he noticed that some light beams appeared in the windows on the second floor, and several figures were walking in the corridor under the light of the light beams.
"Those are Gao Ying and the others!"
"oh?"
The two took turns looking through the telescope, and then Agnes continued: "So they have explored the second floor."
"Nothing should happen to Gao Ying," Dong Xie felt a little relieved. "Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to move forward so leisurely. They would definitely be running wildly down the corridor."
Taking the telescope again, Dong Xie looked at... the window that concerned him most.
Looking inside the telescope, it was still pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Just as he was watching carefully, Agnes suddenly said something to him.
"Aren't you afraid that if you see something, you will be cursed directly?"
Dong Xie's hand froze.
Subconsciously, he put down the telescope.
"I……"
The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier.
He also began to feel restless inside.
There were fewer and fewer people in the library. It was almost closing time, so the administrator simply turned off the lights near them to remind them to either borrow books quickly or leave immediately.
They can't stay here much longer.
Dong Xie looked at the mostly darkened library and felt a little more uneasy. So he simply took out the examination papers and spread them out in front of him, in case something unexpected happened and he would not be able to take the examination papers in time.
He was going to read the exam paper quickly from the beginning.
"Question 1. On which floor of the old teaching building will a ghost floating in the air with its legs not touching the ground only appear?"
From A to D we go to 5F.
"Snapped!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded, which startled Dong Xie! Agnes, who was sitting opposite, also jumped up quickly, looking on guard.
The two of them looked together...
It was a book that fell from the bookshelf.
Did the librarian fail to place the books properly, so they fell? Or?
"You sit here and I'll go take a look."
After Agnes said this, she slowly moved towards the book... (To be continued)
