Chapter 3453: Hehe, This Could Be Fun!
It was nearing noon. Sunlight streamed through the windows of the General Studies School, casting patches of dappled light across the floor.
At that moment, 8925—a scrawny little kid who had once been a Dustfolk from the Lighthouse and was now a hard laborer and staunch follower of Suiying—paced excitedly back and forth. After being captured, he had been temporarily placed at the General Studies School to receive instruction. He kept muttering something under his breath.
"Great!"
"9033, you finally came back!"
After waiting for a long time, he finally saw 9033 return. He hurried over to greet her.
He had thought 9033 was dead and had been sad for days. Who could have imagined that someone would rescue her from the Lighthouse and treat her until she recovered, and that she would then stay in Dragonbone Village, eating and living well?
Not long ago, it was also 9033 who had pleaded with Principal Qiushi of the General Studies School, getting him released from his cell and officially settled at the school to receive instruction.
But unlike 9033, who could freely roam all over Dragonbone Village, he, 8925, was a "prisoner" and constantly kept under watch. He wasn't allowed to go anywhere outside the school grounds. If he tried to leave, they'd catch him and drag him back.
He'd tried to escape over the past couple of days, but had discovered that everyone in Dragonbone Village was practically superhuman. Even some random little kid could run along rooftops and walls, and beat him a hundred times over without breaking a sweat.
So, once he realized there was no way he could escape without a weapon, he gradually accepted reality and resigned himself to staying there for the time being.
But today was different!
