Fuck.
Why was Old Jian still coming after him?
Oi, old man, I'm standing right in front of you. How much do I look like I used to?
Lin Li really wanted to say that, but he was afraid of dying.
Bai Bufan was even more useless right now. All three of his legs had gone weak. Forget answering Xue Jian's question—even breathing had become strained. So, to keep Xue Jian from noticing anything strange, Lin Li naturally had to turn around and brush him off.
"Senior High, Class 1-4? Hmm... When we passed by just now, I don't think I saw anyone inside."
Lin Li put on a thoughtful expression.
"Alright, got it." Hearing his answer, Xue Jian nodded.
But his brow furrowed even more deeply.
He had come to the teaching building specifically to find Lin Li and Bai Bufan.
Those two restless little bastards had been missing for at least twenty minutes.
Why could he only give such a vague estimate as "at least twenty minutes"?
Because twenty minutes earlier, when Xue Jian had made a round through his class's area, he immediately noticed that Lin Li and Bai Bufan were gone. He had asked Wang Ze beside him at the time.
—"Wang Ze, where are those two?"
—"They went to the restroom."
—"How long have they been gone?"
—"Just left."
At the end of that exchange, Xue Jian hadn't paid much attention. It seemed normal enough, so he nodded and went back to his own business.
But five minutes ago, more than ten minutes after that conversation, Xue Jian finished what he was doing and made another round. When he found that those two still weren't back, he started to feel uneasy.
And Wang Ze had gone to the front of the line to take pictures
