With the body's balance ability that she has trained for many years, even in this sudden situation, Lamias corrected her body in an instant to prevent herself from tripping.
It's just that the heel of the shoe was broken after all, and it was so completely broken that it even made Lamias think that the heel was not broken by a wooden board at all, but was cut off directly by something...
In short, keeping smiling, maintaining elegance and calmness, Lamias, as a female teacher, finally walked in front of Boss Luo and the maid.
Lamias put her hand against her buttocks, pushed down her skirt, and then slowly sat down... in a ladylike sitting position.
The maid looked expressionless behind Boss Luo, and then took away the cup used by Teacher Pulin. Soon after, she came out with a cup of tea and placed it in front of Lamias.
Smile.
The tea is cold.
The cups weren't even replaced.
Lamias remained silent until the maid finished her work, then she opened her teeth and said, "Classmate Luo Qiu, I thought that a powerful magician like you would study engineering or other sciences.
, I didn’t expect it to be the simplest theology.”
Is theology simple?
Probably for [non-human] existences, theology...occultism is probably something that they will be exposed to from the beginning - compared to the academic studies that those anthropologists who study in the academy study based on historical records, it is obviously
Contacting them in person will make them more real.
"I don't have any talent in science and engineering." Boss Luo shook his head, and then said: "Miss Lamias, what can I do?"
"As a tutor of the college, I should have the right to care about students' extracurricular activities during extracurricular time, right?" Lamias blinked and said, "Faculty and staff should put the safety of students first.
ah."
Luo Qiu smiled and said, "I'm in the school, so there shouldn't be any big problem."
Lamias said: "This is not necessarily true. Even in school, it is not necessarily safe. Have you heard of school shootings? A few years ago, a student here came in with a gun and shot a classmate. It was very dangerous.
.”
As a [non-human], of course he would not be afraid of a small pistol in the hands of an ordinary student... This is just a conversation starter.
"oh?"
But what Lamias didn't expect was that the young manor owner was really interested and started to ask more questions.
Of course, the school shooting that happened a few years ago was true, but Lamias had not yet come to teach at the college at that time, so naturally she wouldn't know much.
"I heard that the student who committed the crime did not receive the punishment he imagined because of his mental problems... but he was also expelled from the college."
Obviously, she only knew so much - and she only knew this by accidentally hearing other instructors in the college mention it.
"Miss Lamias, the lunch break is over." The maid suddenly reminded: "As the tutor of the college, do you need to teach your lovely students in the afternoon?"
"I'm on vacation today." Lamias smoothed her hair, "Classmate Luo Qiu, according to the agreement... during this period, I can freely move around the town, right?"
"certainly."
Lamias smiled and said: "In that case, my range of activities is right next to you...that's okay, right? Why don't you take my car back after school? Moreover, the suspension system of my car is very good.
Very good, it will be very comfortable."
"No need." Boss Luo shook his head and said, "I'm used to taking a walk in the town after school, and I'm not in a hurry to go back... Moreover, we actually have classes in the afternoon. By the way..."
Boss Luo suddenly left his seat, walked to the cabinet on the side, took out something, turned around and put it in front of Lamias, and then said: "It's for you, it should be able to temporarily deal with your shoe problem."
Looking at the all-purpose glue on the table, Lamias' eyebrows twitched unnaturally... She then picked up the glue and said calmly: "Since you still have classes, I won't disturb you... Go back
See."
The nun was walking very fast at this time because she stepped on the other heel of her shoe and broke it off - of course, as we all know, walking with such high heels is naturally uncomfortable.
"Go to class."
Boss Luo just pretended that nothing had happened, picked up the maid's hand, squeezed it gently, and led her away from [Butterfly Club].
…
…
Hospital, outside the intensive care unit.
Mr. Smith had just returned from the shower room and saw a man in a dress sitting on a chair in the corridor outside the door of the intensive care unit.
He looked like he was in his twenties... Mr. Smith looked at the man's profile and felt that he looked familiar, familiar yet unfamiliar.
"You seem to be...a teacher at the college?" Mr. Smith finally recalled a face that he could occasionally see in the past - a customer of the restaurant he ran.
But for some reason, Mr. Smith always felt that the other party seemed younger than before... maybe it was because of the makeup?
Mr. Smith looked at the dress the other party was wearing and thought thoughtfully.
Mr. Pring...or Mr. Pring--Mr. Smith finally remembered the name of this restaurant regular.
"I was passing by here." The man in the dress said with a smile: "I heard that your wife is sick, so I planned to come to visit, but it seems that it is difficult to get in."
Mr. Smith opened his mouth... In fact, the two parties were not familiar with each other. During the limited number of meals on weekdays, looking back now, it seems that they did not have much conversation.
It's not a friendship, at best it can only be called acquaintance - if someone said this like a good friend, Mr. Smith would probably be grateful... But at this time, the other party's words were a bit abrupt.
"I'm interested." Mr. Smith thought for a while and sat down next to the man in the dress. "Debra will be happy if she knows."
The man in the dress said: "Yes, when your wife smiles happily, she is really the most beautiful person in the world."
Mr. Smith frowned... The tone of the man in the dress vaguely gave him a strange feeling - but he didn't show it, he just nodded and stopped talking... he stopped talking actively.
He even hoped that the other party would take the initiative to leave and end this sudden encounter.
"I brought some gifts." The man in the dress looked at Mr. Smith and said, "I hope you can accept them."
Mr. Smith looked at the box that the other man had been holding in his hands and placed on his lap - he had actually noticed this box from the first moment he saw the man in the dress.
The sunspots are wrapped in beautiful patterned paper. This pattern is even a flower that Mr. Smith’s wife, Mrs. Debra, likes.
How could he know... Mr. Smith's doubts became more and more intense, and he even frowned.
But the man in the dress said this: "I was once depressed and hesitant, and loneliness almost swallowed up everything in me... I suffered countless failures... But your wife's smile saved me. That smile can warm people's hearts.
.So, please believe me, your wife will be the person I am most grateful to, she gave me life."
Mr. Smith couldn't help but feel moved, he could feel the sincerity in the other person's words.
In front of his eyes, he seemed to see a figure that had been worn away by life, lonely and desolate, walking on the street like an empty shell... Suddenly, a smile saved him who had lost hope in life.
He also had such an experience...when he met his wife.
"I have been saved by such a smile before, as if black and white time was suddenly dyed with rainbow colors."
Mr. Smith finally took the gift box from the man in the dress and thought for a while before saying: "Do you want to see my wife? I can take you in...but we can only meet once."
"No need." The man in the dress shook his head at this time, "Being here is actually enough... Besides, this is my first time talking to you, Mr. Smith, like this. I will remember it."
"I didn't say anything." Mr. Smith shook his head.
"If I have the chance, I will come again." The man in the dress stood up and put on the tall hat, "Excuse me for disturbing you today... sir."
"What a weird guy." Looking at the leaving figure of the man in the suit, Mr. Smith was a little dazed... He shook his head again, and then walked into the intensive care room.
…
After disinfecting and changing into clean clothes, Mr. Smith suddenly took a look at the gift box he had put aside when he entered the door.
Maybe when my wife wakes up, it will be a good gift for her to open it herself, right?
I hope that day can come as soon as possible.
He came to the bedside, took out his wife's hand from the quilt, and then held it tightly... Mr. Smith began to pray - his wife was a devout believer, and so was he later.
Unknowingly, Mr. Smith lay down beside the bed and fell into a deep sleep... He would fall asleep suddenly due to sleepiness almost every day for one or two periods.
Maybe it's because he's too tired... Every time he falls asleep suddenly, Mr. Smith will think like this after he wakes up.
What he didn't know was that every time he slept like this, someone would gently open the door of the intensive care unit, and then slowly walk in...a man in a white shirt and white gloves.
Looking at the two people holding hands, the man in the white shirt... Teacher Pulin showed a soft smile on his face.
He liked the tranquility and the scene in front of him very much - there was no doubt about it.
But in his more than thirty years of life, he has seen countless scenery, but he has only ever felt such fondness for this ordinary couple.
"Should I also find a partner or something..."
Looking at Mr. Smith holding his wife's hand, he suddenly thought of the pair of students in the Butterfly Club. Teacher Pulin couldn't help but have a strange idea.
Sure enough, if you have been single for too long, seeing such a figure in a pair will cause you to suffer a critical blow...
He shook his head, opened the gift box given by the student, and then gently sprinkled the [Hibiscus flower mud] inside on Mr. Smith and his wife.
"[Flower mud from the other shore flower]...even I have only heard of this kind of thing, never seen it." Teacher Pulin sighed as he spoke, "Yellow Spring, a term for Eastern Hell...
"
As a professional seminary instructor with excellent theological knowledge, the concept of "Underworld" quickly flashed through Teacher Pulin's mind.
In occult science and Eastern legends, there is indeed a set of theories about life and death that are far more complete than Western mythology and reincarnation.
But that's just an Eastern legend... For Teacher Pulin, after a human dies, there is probably only one destination for the soul, and that is the source of his death power.
"I hope I can see you born in the next few days." Teacher Pulin patted the mud stained on her gloves, looked at Mrs. Debra's bulging belly, and her smile became softer and softer, "little life."
He quietly exited the ward... Outside the isolation room, a gift box wrapped in patterned gift paper caught his attention.
Stop.
Teacher Pulin has the idea of opening this box.
But at this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door. It was obviously the nurse girl from the hospital who had arrived for rounds... Teacher Pulin hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and walked out.
I happened to meet the nurse head-on.
Teacher Pulin smiled and nodded calmly, the nurse girl also nodded subconsciously, and Teacher Pulin walked out completely with a natural expression.
After a while, the nurse girl said to herself in confusion: "Didn't this guy just leave... When did he come back after changing his clothes?"
…
"Otherwise, how about going to visit another old friend?"
Outside the hospital door, Teacher Pulin looked at the sky... The sun was setting in the west. It was one of the ordinary and ordinary sunsets among the thousands he had seen.
In this small town, apart from the new student with whom we have just met, the only one who can be considered a friend in this small town is probably the one in the church who would quietly insert it into the scriptures while preaching to the believers.
A few pages of erotic Father Stella.
He thought about saying hello before leaving.
The sun sets in the west, and he has experienced thousands of sunsets, placing his figure under such an ordinary and ordinary sunset, stretching over the long street.
…
…
The maid inserted the key, and the Beetle, which had been resurrected by Dazhe, started up again. Boss Luo sat in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt obediently.
So the maid drove the car out of the college parking lot in a happy mood.
At the same time, another black Beetle in the corner of the parking lot started suddenly... Lamia held the steering wheel with one hand and put a glass of happy water in the cup holder with the other hand.
——I bought this when I was bored and waiting.
That's right, she had been hiding in the car for a whole afternoon, and she even fell asleep in the middle of it!
But when Lamias was about to step on the accelerator and keep up with the car in front, she saw the car suddenly vibrated, and then there was a bang... and billowing black smoke came out of the front of the car.
