Crimson Moon down, Crimson Moon Elementary School, Principal's Office.

Teacher Lu After finishing those words, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and her head lowered feebly. Her wrist, where it was cut by the paper knife, was already bleeding again even though it was wrapped with thick gauze. The dark red color soaked through the gauze, which looked a bit shocking. In the office, the dim lights once again became blurry and miserable.

There was laughter, if there was none, and it rang in the office.

In the dark shadows that could not be illuminated by the surrounding lights, mysterious and weird figures began to appear one after another. They had faces that were familiar to the three people present. They ran in the shadows as if they were running in the sun. They laughed and played, and then got closer and closer to Teacher Lu. Their little hands stretched out from behind the sofa and grabbed Teacher Lu's hair.

This picture makes it impossible to distinguish between real and fake, giving people a deep sense of guilt.

That is a kind of despair...

And Lu Xin stood alone in the office, his head lowered, as if he had not seen this scene.

"Don't..."

But at this moment, No. 8 suddenly shouted in a low voice.

His loud voice echoed in the office, and the confusion and illusion surrounding Teacher Lu also retreated slightly at this time.

No. 8 gritted his teeth, rushed to Teacher Lu, helped her dispel the confusion and unreal scattered mental power around her, and reminded her loudly, "Wake up, don't be overwhelmed by this feeling of guilt, this shouldn't be something you need to carry..."

Teacher Lu's face was filled with sadness.

The countdown in her pupils had returned to zero and turned a terrifying blood color.

And in her eyes, a series of rapidly beating pictures was actually reflected.

She was a sunny and happy little girl with a ponytail and always with her hands on her hips. She was energetic and had a little savagery in the wilderness. She had a sense of justice, but she also always had a little bit of domineering and cleverness that was willing to make decisions for others...

Teacher Lu looked at this girl with hatred.

She was willing to kill her past self so that things wouldn't end up like they are now...

"It shouldn't be like this..."

No. 8 looked at the guilt and hatred in her eyes, which became more and more intense. Feeling her mental strength gradually weakening, he almost shouted in despair, "This is none of your business. He was the one who killed, those teachers, Old Director at that time..."

"What I originally wanted was to try him first, and then try Old Director..."

"But why did it become you?"

"If this matter ends up being shouldered by you, then what will become of what I am pursuing?"

"..."

He shouted desperately, and even looked at Lu Xin standing silently next to him with some pleading.

But Lu Xin didn't respond, and Teacher Lu didn't respond either.

Everything is moving towards the point of no return, getting closer and closer to despair.

"Wow..."

But at this moment, the door of the office was suddenly kicked open, and a silent figure stood in the corridor. As he walked into the office step by step, he saw that the man was actually the old security guard. He was holding a shotgun. His old face was full of anger and distortion. In his blood-red eyes, it seemed that he could faintly see that the corners of his eyes were a little moist. He had cried not long ago.

"Isn't that how you are?"

The old security guard saw the people in the office, especially Teacher Lu, who was lying slumped on the sofa with desperate eyes.

The gun in his hand was not pointed at Lu Xin, but suddenly pointed at No. 8.

His voice was low, but full of anger, and he said loudly, "You were like this when you were a child."

"Do you like to sue this or that because of some good intentions?"

"No, it's just because you like to complain."

"This gives you a sense of superiority and makes you the best-behaved and obedient child in the eyes of the teachers."

"As for now..."

He suddenly made a noise, pulled the bolt of the gun, loaded the bullet, then put it on No. 8's head, and said viciously:

"It's the same now..."

"It's not easy for these two children to live. Just fuck you, you feel like your wings are stiff..."

"Just coming here to point fingers again?"

"..."

The appearance of the old security guard plunged No. 8 into a moment of confusion.

He seemed to see a familiar shadow, gradually overlapping with the face of the old security guard in front of him.

However, he was no longer even able to figure out who the old security guard was.

He seemed to have been exposed by the old security guard's last fig leaf, and he saw his childhood self in shame...

His lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.

However, when the words came to my mouth, I felt so weak that I could only close my eyes.

Outside the primary school, there are shadows and shadows.

At some point, many figures gradually appeared in the yard.

Wearing black suits and carrying silver boxes in their hands, they walked slowly and slowly to the iron gate of the primary school.

It was obvious that the iron gate was tightly locked and even powered on, and some strange electronic equipment was arranged around the gate and the school wall, but they still passed through the iron gate quietly and came to the small campus, watching quietly.

More and more people came in, almost filling the courtyard.

They all maintained the same movement, standing downstairs of the elementary school, quietly looking up to the third floor.

"Quick, let them go..."

The old security guard put his finger on the trigger, slapped No. 8 on the forehead hard, and yelled angrily.

"I..."

No. 8 said feebly, "I can't do it..."

"You..."

Listening to his words, the old security guard had veins popping up on his forehead, and he was about to shoot him.

But at this moment, Lu Xin suddenly reached out, grabbed the body of his gun, and slowly lifted it up.

Lu Xin At this moment, I don't know what to say or what to do...

Teacher Lu's confession made him collapse unexpectedly...

In fact, what Teacher Lu said does not have much significance to the matter itself, but only affects her.

This was just her self-blame, which made her voluntarily take all the blame on herself.

Even Number Eight didn't agree with this move.

However, a truth was revealed in her self-blame.

This truth is also of little significance to the matter itself. It only has an impact on Lu Xin.

There are always some small things that are meaningless to the world, but have absolute and decisive significance to individuals.

How could this happen?

Obviously this is the only person who believes in him, and he is obviously his best friend since he was very young.

Because she believed in herself, she had the initial motivation, and bit by bit she became the kind of person she wanted to be. Even if she later found out that she actually had some misunderstanding of herself when she was a child, she still believed in her...

Even this misunderstanding has become a motivation for me to work hard and "cure" myself.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that it was him who had misunderstood.

Muddle-headed, directionless growth, so much endurance and hard work, ultimately proved to be meaningless.

Everything is just based on lies...

How should I describe my mood at this time?

Angry?

Or do you want to destroy everything?

Actually, none. Lu Xin Just for a moment, I felt quite tired.

Too tired to even think about destroying the world.

Why destroy him? Just leave him there. It has nothing to do with you anyway.

The huge panic and pressure that I hadn't felt for a long time appeared again.

And this time, it seemed bigger and more terrifying, coming like a dark night that was not allowed to be rejected.

Lu Xin could only stand there quietly, letting the boundless darkness drown him.

And he couldn't even muster the strength to resist.

Perhaps not resisting is the most comfortable way.

Lu Xin, whose entire mind was occupied by this kind of depression, seemed to have lost interest in everything.

Including Teacher Lu, who was overwhelmed by guilt, and the angry old security guard.

Until a gentle voice sounded in his ear, "Are you really going to give up everything you have been looking for for so long?"

Lu Xin raised his head slightly and saw Mom.

It seems that he is no longer in the office of this elementary school, but has returned to the old building.

He saw the elegant and considerate Mom standing in front of him. He gently stretched out his hand and held his palm. Next to her stood the timid sister. Half of her body was hidden behind Mom, but what was most in her eyes was not fear.

But worry.

My father stood further away, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it.

The appearance of his family made Lu Xin's heart tremble slightly, and it seemed that there were a lot of things he wanted to say in his heart.

But in the end, all he could say was very simple, "I'm sad."

"I know."

Mom nodded slightly, his voice soft, as if he was afraid of scaring Lu Xin at this time.

The younger sister beside him also nodded, nodding vigorously.

"Everyone has a time when they feel tired."

Mom smiled and said, "I don't want to do anything, I don't want to care about anything, of course you can have it too..."

"So, if you feel sad and tired now, then we don't care about anything. Let's go home now, have a good meal, take a bath, and sleep again. Everything else has nothing to do with us. We don't need to carry these things all the time. It's good to live well. Why can't we make ourselves more relaxed?"

"The world doesn't need a sad person to save..."

"..."

"..."

Mom's words made Lu Xin even have the urge to cry.

These words hit the place he longed for most in his heart.

He really didn't want to do anything, didn't want to care about anything, and had no strength at all. However, when Mom said these words gently, he felt that there was something more inexplicable in his empty heart...

It would be really good to just let go of it all, go home, take a shower, and have a good sleep.

But...

He was silent and his body did not move, but whether it was Teacher Lu who blamed himself to the point of collapse, the angry security guard, the powerless and frustrated No. 8, and the law enforcers who came into the elementary school in groups and brought great pressure to people, as well as the eyes in the sky whose origins were unknown, but after opening, they brought endless pressure to Qinggang.

He could even feel Kid's spiritual power clashing with those eyes in the sky.

Feel the chaos and tension caused in several cities in Qinggang...

The idea of going home and having a good sleep is in sharp contrast to the chaotic situation in various cities now.

So he was silent for a long time amid the different emotions that were intertwined and surging.

He whispered to Mom, "I'm still a little unwilling..."

When he heard these words, both his sister and his father behind him were slightly nervous and their eyes lit up.

Mom's expression also became brighter, and then she became more patient and said softly, "What are you not willing to accept?"

"Many..."

Lu Xin thought about it carefully.

He was also thinking, what else could he be unwilling to accept?

Historically speaking, the "truth" spoken by Teacher Lu means that there was no need for him to appear in the first place.

He has been denied.

Now, paying no attention to anything and going back to sleep is what I want most.

But there is always a Sisi unwillingness in my heart, like a child trying to save the last bit of dignity.

Mom's concerned eyes gave him the courage to say this.

With very little effort, he whispered, "Because, things shouldn't be like this..."

Mom looked at Lu Xin with relief. After a while, he hugged him gently and said softly, "Very good..."

"You have begun to feel your spiritual core..."

"..."

As she spoke, she took a few steps forward lightly, stretched out her hand, and took hold of the gun in the old security guard's hand.

"Since it's not right, let's let things return to the track they should have..."

"We have the ability."

"..."

"..."

When the shotgun in the old security guard's hand was grasped, everyone present suddenly turned to look at Lu Xin.

In the dim office, Lu Xin lowered his head, just silent, but it gave people a strange feeling of weirdness and dislocation. He was obviously standing there, alone, but the air around him kept appearing vague ripples, which made people feel tight...

They were stunned for a moment, their words and gasps were suppressed, and they heard a subtle sound coming from Lu Xin's mouth.

This voice kept changing its tone, sometimes confused, sometimes gentle, sometimes tight like a little girl.

Keep repeating various words. "Yeah, let's not worry about anything, just go back and have a good sleep, right?"

"But I'm a little reluctant..."

"Why not give in?"

"Brother, come on!"

"Kill them, kill all these idiots who know nothing..."

"There are many things that I am not willing to accept. I don't want to give up such a good life, and I don't want to live alone anymore. Just like before, I didn't like those people and didn't care about them, but when I was the only one left, in my heart..."

"... It's so sad!"

It's the beginning of the month and I want to ask for votes...
