In the afternoon, they came to the teaching building during class time. As soon as Yu Yan stepped on the last step, he saw Gu Qi walking quickly to the classroom window.

"He's not here." Gu Qi was surprised, and scanned all corners of the classroom, "This class is about new content, there is no reason why he is not here."

"Only his seat is vacant." Yu Yan came over and looked into the classroom. The student by the window showed a disgusted expression to the person who suddenly appeared outside the window and disturbed his class.

Yu Yan tried to keep a low profile.Dodge back behind the wall.

Not long after, he saw Wang Xiuyuan coming from the other end of the corridor. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw Yu Yan, and he said, "Are you here to look for me? Is Gu Qi also there?"

"Yes, he's right there. We found you've been waiting here when you're not in the classroom."

"I was in the teacher's office just now." Wang Xiuyuan lowered his head slightly, with a serious expression on his face, he pondered for a moment before saying: "You don't have to wait for me, we can talk about it on the basketball court tonight."

"it is good."

In the empty basketball court, except for the neat white line that shimmers, there are only leaves falling with the wind, occupying the cleaned ground, pushing one by one to move forward, making a small "rustling" sound.

After a while of silence, Wang Xiuyuan repeated what he had just said to the head teacher this afternoon.

"Last Tuesday, because we had to respond to the school's inspection by the Education Bureau, we temporarily canceled the evening self-study. The last class in the afternoon was finished after cleaning. I met Chen Huijia at the station on the way home. She said she was in a bad mood and asked me I walked with her for a while before taking the car, because I joined the student union in my first year of high school, and even though she was in a different class, I still met a friend who could speak a few words, seeing that she was really not happy, I agreed to her."

"We chatted like normal along the way, but she gradually got better and talked more and more. When it was dark, I said goodbye to her in Portugal. She took the bus to go home. I wanted to leave It was not far from home, so I walked home. I never saw her again after that, and I didn’t even know that she was sick and didn’t come to school the next day.”

"You should have been seen when you left with her at the station near the school, so someone will spread rumors."

"Not to mention the whole school, many second-year students in high school now know about this matter, and they are making it up. They suspect that I have something to do with it."

"It's also because of this that the head teacher came to your office this afternoon?"

"Yes, this matter started to spread in the school this morning. Everyone said that I was the boy who was with Chen Huijia in the end. The suspicion is the biggest." Wang Xiuyuan's voice was full of helplessness, "I have already made it clear to the head teacher, and he asked me Is there anyone who can prove that this can quickly restore my innocence."

"Is there? You should have walked home not long after you broke up with her. The family members should be able to testify, right?"

Wang Xiuyuan shook his head, "There is no one in my family. When I got home, I wrote the test papers alone in the room and even forgot to eat dinner."

"Then what should I do? Can you explain clearly..." Gu Qi looked at Wang Xiuyuan worriedly, and suddenly he couldn't understand: "Why do some people conclude that you did the thing just because you met Chen Huijia? You and her are just ordinary friends ah."

Wang Xiuyuan didn't seem to want to mention the deceased again, and replied briefly: "It was her friend who said that Chen Huijia was going to confess to me this week."

Gu Qi stared wide-eyed, "Do they think that if someone confesses to you, you are plotting against others because they like you? What logic! This is all slander!"

Wang Xiuyuan looked very calm, but said negatively: "I don't know if the teacher will believe my explanation. In fact, I know that I have been regretting this incident. If I had sent her home first, the tragedy would not have happened. Now I just If you can passively wait for the rumors to be forgotten by everyone, even if they spread too much, they will have no evidence that I did it."

"I hope so." Gu Qi raised his head and stared at the other party, with an impulse in his heart, he couldn't help but continue to say: "I believe in you, even if anyone thinks that you did the suspicion, I also believe that you are not that Kind of people."

Wang Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Thank you, I didn't expect that at this time, a friend who has not been with me for a long time is standing by my side. No matter what, I will remember your words, and I will always remember you."

He seemed to be expressing that even if Gu Qi's spirit body disappeared in the future, he would always miss this friend who he only met after his death.

The heart that was originally as vague and ethereal as a transparent body was filled with the last words of the other party. This sense of satisfaction was far away and lonely, as if silently lingering around him for a long, long time, until this moment, he was able to touch it.

"The state of his spirit body has changed." Yu Yan, who was standing in Fu Jianchi's enchantment, took a step forward, and looked closer at the undead who had become vain after a faint gleam.

"It turns out that what Gu Qi longs for...is this."

Yu Yan thought that the other party wanted more, and if that was the case, the time to stay would probably be longer, and he would need to find ways to help him, maybe even ask Mr. Fu for help, that would be a really arduous and arduous task of recycling.

And Gu Qi's wish is so simple, so simple that it looks like a leaf swaying on the towering tree next to him. Although there are countless leaves of similar shape, even though he will eventually detach from the branch and join the earth, he just hopes, The falling direction can be remembered.

His existence, and his heroism before disappearing, can be remembered by those he likes.

"Hey, classmate, is Wang Xiuyuan from your class here? Can you call him out for me?" A woman in a long black coat suddenly appeared at the door of the classroom.

This woman who looks to be in her early thirties has a haggard face and slightly swollen eyes. Originally, she came here to ask Yu Yan, who looks good-looking. Yu Yan was afraid of getting close to strangers, so he stopped before the other approached. Back off and put on a nonchalant attitude.Then I saw the other party go to the classmate at the door of the classroom for help, and that classmate ran into the classroom enthusiastically to call Wang Xiuyuan.

Wang Xiuyuan, who was thinking about exercises in the classroom, glanced at the door, showed a puzzled expression, and then got up and came out.

"Who are you?" Wang Xiuyuan politely asked the other party's identity.

"I'm Chen Huijia's mother." The woman replied coldly, without any trace of the softness and gentleness just now.

Her voice was not loud, but it was enough for the students around to hear. Several students sensitively captured the word "Chen Huijia", and frequently turned their heads to observe the actions of the two during the conversation.

Wang Xiuyuan looked complicated, and said to the woman who was half a head shorter than him: "Auntie, I..."

"Pa——" the crisp sound interrupted the young man's words.

The classmates who were joking and joking next to him all looked astonished. Gu Qi also opened his mouth caught off guard, unable to even utter words of surprise. Like the people around him, he crowded around the boy and the woman, but his body became shallower. Superimposed on the onlookers, it looks as weird as a human soul coming out of the body.

"You brat, don't pretend to me! It's you, right? It's you who did such a heartless thing to our Huijia, that made her shut herself in the room for a few days without eating or drinking. , made a forced choice! It was you who killed her, it was you!"

Wang Xiuyuan's face was flushed. Regardless of his embarrassment, he excitedly defended himself: "No! It's not me, auntie, it's really not me. I walked with her that day and went home separately at Putaochuan Station. I don’t know what’s going to happen, and I can’t—”

Chen Huijia's mother asked loudly: "You said you left at that time, is there anyone to prove it? You also said you went home to do your homework, who will prove it is true?! No, right? I knew it! Your class teacher is on the phone You told me all over here, I won't believe it, we Huijia was killed by you!"

For her repeated words, Wang Xiuyuan gritted his teeth and firmly denied: "It's not me, I didn't do it!"

"Then come and see what this is!" Chen Huijia's mother took out a blue notebook from her bag, opened the half-written and marked page, and stretched it out in front of Wang Xiuyuan: "This is a diary written by my daughter. It clearly stated above that she was very disappointed in you, and she never thought you would be such a person! On the previous page, the day before you met, she said in her diary that she would confess to you the next day. Isn't it true? I also asked Hui Jia's friends, and they all said that the day you met was the day Hui Jia was going to confess to you!"

Wang Xiuyuan stared at the words on the diary in disbelief. There were only a few short sentences, which outlined the deep disappointment, helplessness, and anger of the girl who wrote the pen, but the diary did not directly name "that person" as himself.

"Impossible, there must be a mistake! This person is definitely not me."

Chen Huijia's mother suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the boy's arm, stared at him fiercely and said: "You are still sophistrying now, don't you just bully my daughter because she likes you, and you think she won't tell others? Let me tell you that you are wrong! I will never let Huijia die tragically in vain! I want everyone in your school to know that Chen Huijia was forced to death by you, who had a mother but no father!"

As if being stung by the other party's high-pitched and sharp voice, Wang Xiuyuan pushed her away violently. The hurt and forbearing expression on his face was regarded as guilt and guilt. Chen Huijia's mother propped up her staggering body, and didn't even bother to tidy her messy hair.

She sneered for a while, "What? Did I say something wrong? I know you are a single-parent family. If your mother was not busy remarrying and didn't bother to care about you, she wouldn't even see me, and I wouldn't have come to school to find you directly. Oh, I see, you must be psychopathic because of this, unbalanced and want to take revenge on society!"

"This woman—" Gu Qi, who was standing less than one meter away from Chen Huijia's mother, couldn't help but want to reach out to stop her, but just as he stretched out his hand, he rushed back in the void, unable to touch her at all, and he cursed angrily , out of the crowd.

The woman's Linglie's eyes were full of madness, like countless little snakes wriggling their tails and revealing their viciousness, they rushed towards the boy in a cluster.Wang Xiu couldn't go forward, let alone retreat. He hung his hands tightly clenched into fists at his sides. Facing the unreasonable reprimand of the deceased's mother, he could only make a real voice of denial with all his strength, or remain silent.

"What are you doing standing here?!" The teacher's sudden intrusion came at the same time as the ringtone, "It's class, which class hurry back to the classroom for class!"

The onlookers watched the students scatter, and they hurried to the classroom while discussing the feat they witnessed just now.The corridor immediately became wide and quiet, only Wang Xiuyuan who had not moved, and Chen Huijia's mother who looked at him with hatred after venting.

Yu Yan hid behind the wall, saw that this teacher was not Wang Xiuyuan's head teacher, and said kindly to the woman, "You are Hui Jia's mother? If you have anything to say, let's go to the office and talk about it."

"Why can't we talk here when we go to the office?!"

"This is the teaching area. You see, all the students are attending classes in it. I have already notified Wang Xiuyuan, the head teacher. He is waiting for you in the office. Let's go there together and solve all the problems."

Chen Huijia's mother thought for a while, and then she said, "Okay, then go to the office and say, this kid has to go too, otherwise there is nothing to talk about!"

"Of course, of course, we will all talk face-to-face together."

The teacher led Chen Huijia's mother to the other end of the corridor, and Wang Xiuyuan followed silently. Seeing this, Gu Qi was ready to continue listening.

"You still don't want to go." Yu Yan suggested in time.

"Why?" Gu Qi turned around and asked in confusion.

"I'm afraid you'll get agitated."

"I've already become like this, what else can I do?" Knowing that Gu Qi, who will be reincarnated soon, has accepted the result with peace of mind, he understood Yu Yan's meaning, and said: "I just went to see, I won't make any mistakes. What frightened them."

Yu Yan didn't stop him anymore, and watched Gu Qi's spirit body disappear around the corner, while he waited for him in the corridor.An afternoon of autumn wind and falling leaves ended in the hustle and bustle of waiting.

During this period, Yu Yan wandered boredly in the corridor from time to time. As soon as his figure appeared, he would find a pair of eyes in the classroom looking over quickly. He inevitably looked at Yao Yu several times, and it was not difficult to see the gleam in each other's eyes. Anxiety seems to be suffering from waiting.

It wasn't until night fell and near the evening self-study that Wang Xiuyuan's lonely figure appeared at the door of the classroom.Accompanied by his appearance, there was an instant silence and revived whispering.He ignored the whispered comments of his classmates and walked straight to his seat.

Yao Yu had already rushed over at this time, pointed at Wang Xiuyuan and made a gesture, the latter understood and got up to leave the classroom.

"Hey, who is that person? Why did you call Wang Xiuyuan out!"

"Oh he, it's the stammer sitting in the back, don't you remember?"

"Who would remember him! What I want to say is how could Wang Xiuyuan get along with this kind of person? It's so strange, it seems that they are already very familiar with each other."

"In this way, Wang Xiuyuan is really an unfathomable person! Usually I always think that he is the kind of standard three-good youth..."

"You can't judge people by their appearance, hahaha..."
