Bab 17: Unpredictable
Editor: Henyee Translations
There was a lunch break at school. Miao Dong packed the instant noodles cups and wrapped them in a black bag. When she went to school in the afternoon, she would throw it into the trash can near the canteen. Then she went to bed.
When the alarm woke her up, Zhou Feng's bed was already empty.
That afternoon during class, Zhou Feng was still the last to enter the classroom.
Miao Dong was curious. This guy clearly went out very early. The distance between the dormitory and the classroom was very close. Why was he always the last to arrive? Although she was curious, Miao Dong didn't dare to ask.
Zhou Feng slept for almost the entire afternoon. There was only one math class that could make him perk up and listen attentively. In the rest of the classes, he was basically the same as in the morning. He rested his head on his hand and lay down in less than ten minutes.
Miao Dong had already attended high school once. She was not interested in returning to high school at all. It was simply a torture for her to study geography, politics, and history again. She might as well hold her head in a daze.
By the time the evening self-study class ended, Miao Dong had only placed her books into her desk. When she turned around, Zhou Feng had already disappeared.
Miao Dong muttered in her heart. Did this guy have a flash ability? He left the fastest after class every time…
The lights in the dormitory were off at 9:30, but the water stopped at 10:00.
Miao Dong was worried that Zhou Feng would suddenly come back while she was showering, so she didn't dare to act rashly and kept waiting for him.
Unexpectedly, this guy came back exactly on time. The moment the lights went out, he opened the dormitory door and walked in. Under the weak moonlight, his shadow was magnified and projected into the dormitory, scaring Miao Dong.
Miao Dong stuttered again. "Big Brother, Big Brother, can you give me a heads up next time you come in?"
Zhou Feng ignored her and went straight to the toilet to wash up. He didn't say a word until he went to bed.
The next day was the same as the first day. Miao Dong could only see Zhou Feng in class and before sleep. The rest of the time, all she was left with was an empty desk and an empty bed. Miao Dong even doubted the authenticity of this person's existence.
Miao Dong was even more curious about what Zhou Feng was doing. Of course, curiosity was one thing. She wouldn't be stupid enough to follow him.
It was good that Zhou Feng came back before the lights went out at night. Miao Dong could take a shower without worry.
On the third morning, what woke Miao Dong up was not the dormitory alarm clock, but the system's mission notification.
"Ding! Hidden Mission 1: Find out about Zhou Feng's daily schedule. There is no reward for this mission. The time limit is three days."
Miao Dong rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up helplessly.
Actually, she had already guessed that there would be such a mission. After all, the system liked to make her do things she didn't want to do. At the same time, it wanted to bring some excitement for her boring high school life!
Miao Dong thought that since she woke up so early today, Zhou Feng should still be in the dormitory, right?
Hence, she quietly got out of bed and carefully walked to the screen. Afraid that she would wake him up, she poked her head out to look at Zhou Feng's bed.
The blanket was neatly folded, and the bedsheets were so flat that it was as if no one had laid on them last night. He had already left the room.
"Damn, why is this guy so elusive!" Miao Dong stood up straight and exclaimed at Zhou Feng's bed.
By the time Miao Dong finished washing up, the dormitory alarm clock had just rung.
Miao Dong didn't have a phone or watch. Her concept of time relied on this dormitory alarm clock. Including the time she took to wash up, she estimated that Zhou Feng had left as early as six o'clock.
What could he be doing so early? Miao Dong was even more curious. Even without this mission, she wanted to figure it out.
The morning was peaceful again. After lunch break, Li Chen came to knock on Miao Dong's dormitory door.
Miao Dong was not surprised to see Li Chen. She was already used to Li Chen's character settings. He could appear and disappear at any time. Even if the two of them were in the same class, as long as Miao Dong didn't need anyone to answer her questions, Li Chen's presence would be zero.
Li Chen smiled happily. "Miao Dong, the last class in the afternoon is physical education. The teacher said that there will be a physical examination, so I specially came to remind you to wear sportswear."
Miao Dong nodded. Just as she was about to close the door, she opened it again and said to Li Chen, "Don't be in a hurry to leave. Wait for me at the door. Let's go to the classroom together."
