Chapter 7 Paperwork
byChapter 7 Paperwork
Shang Nan ran downstairs.
More than an hour has passed, and the teaching building is almost empty. Only three or five classrooms are still lit, the corridors are empty, and the echo of footsteps is loud.
I didn't encounter any accidents when I went downstairs this time.
The white butterfly flew around Shang Nan a few times on the rooftop and then fell back into Shang Nan's coat pocket.
Yu Zhibai had been standing where Shang Nan first saw him, directly in front of the exit of the teaching building.
A large mouthful of cold air poured into the trachea and into the lungs, making it feel stuffy and painful, but Shannan didn't think too much. He ran to Yu Zhibai in one breath, stopped, and after a while, he raised his head slightly and looked atYu Zhibai.
Yu Zhibai's eyes were dark, deeper than the darkness of the night. His eyes were fixed on Shannan for a moment, but they were gentle.
The white breath he exhaled blocked Shan Nan's unhappy sight. He was unhappy, and it was written on his face. There was nothing to show off with the monster, and he might not be able to understand it.
It may not be acceptable.
Shang Nan took out the butterfly from his pocket and brought it to Yu Zhibai. He slowly spread his fingers. The white butterfly that had just taken off in front of Shang Nan and stopped Shang Nan from moving forward now returned to the form of a paper butterfly., lying quietly in Shang Nan's hand.
Silence lingered between the two of them.
Shang Nan felt that his fingers were frozen. He turned his head and looked at the rooftop he was standing on before. It was six stories high and towered into the dark night.
"Do you want me to fall off the rooftop?"
Yu Zhibai's reaction was very calm and gentle, "I won't let you fall." He curved the corners of his mouth. Shan Nan didn't notice it before. At this moment, the surroundings were lonely and his concentration was high. Yu Zhibai's curved mouth looked a little...……formulation.
"But it's possible, maybe... I will, fall." Shang Nan pointed his hand at a short distance from the two of them, "If I fall, I will land in that position and be smashed to pieces."
Shan Nan thought that Yu Zhibai should understand, and he indeed did not think about taking his own life, but at the same time, Yu Zhibai was not joking with him.
The scene of Yu Zhibai being bullied lingered before his eyes.
The steel pipe broke his bones, and he curled up and shivered, exposing his thin back neck and wrist knuckles to the air.The word "bitch" was branded on his cheek. Those two words, Shannan thought, should refer to Yu She.
"This butterfly I gave you," Yu Zhibai smiled, "can be a gift or a sacrifice. Student Shannan, don't you humans like exams the most? I will also test you."
It no longer hides its bad and selfish nature in front of Shang Nan.
No human being has ever approached it with good intentions. At home, there is a paper-threaded person like him, Yu Xiaoyu. Mrs. Yu is old, and she sleeps and wakes up drowsily every day.
It has to study, sleep, and eat like humans, and it often has to endure the malice from humans, such as Lu Yang, and Shang Nan's mother.
It is not afraid of Shannan's approach, not only Shannan, it is not afraid of any human beings.
Human beings are creatures that are more like empty shells than paper men.
But facing the current Shang Nan, it felt a little unfamiliar, because this human Shang Nan was different from the others.
Shang Nan chooses to move forward instead of retreating, so,
The butterfly is not a sacrifice, the butterfly becomes a solemn gift to the monster.
[14: I said, it is testing you. If you just walked back, that butterfly would break and send you to death.Your sentence of "make friends" was taken to heart and a ceremony was performed. Obviously, the ceremony was successful.]
[14: Nannan, it officially accepts you.]
Shang Nan threw the butterfly at Yu Zhibai's chest, "Give it back to you."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the school gate with his schoolbag on his back. There were no footsteps behind him. Yu Zhibai did not catch up with him, but he was watching.
Yu Zhibai did not pick up the paper butterfly thrown by Shang Nan, nor did he bend down to pick it up. When Shang Nan was about to walk out of the school gate, the butterfly flapped its wings and flew towards Shang Nan.
Yu Xiaoyu held up the lamp and waited for Yu Zhibai for a long, long, long, long time. She squatted behind the corridor, with creases on her knees. When she heard the door open, she stood up and patted her knees hard, trying to make the creases disappear.
She still looked behind Yu Zhibai subconsciously, "The puppy didn't come home again?"
The lights are dim and the corridors are cramped and old.
Yu Zhibai's face was immersed in light and shadow, and his face was as pale and white as Yu Xiaoyu's, but the corners of his mouth were raised, and he was obviously in a good mood.
"Grandma cooked, and it tastes terrible." Yu Xiaoyu said as she walked away. She looked at Yu Zhibai's expression from the side, "Xiaobai, you seem to be in a good mood."
Yu Zhibai didn't answer her, so she remained silent.
Grandma can no longer make paper dolls. She, the puppy, and the other paper dolls all depend on Yu Zhibai for their survival, but Yu Zhibai won't let them call him master.They are different from Xiaobai. Xiaobai is an orthodox paper man. After being deliberately concealed, it is difficult for humans to discover his identity, and they may all be scattered when the wind blows.
The puppy is different from her and other paper figures.
Grandma said that Yu Zhibai had too much grievances and that there must be a container to hold these grievances. It could not have its own thinking or ideas and was only used by Yu Zhibai, so the puppy appeared.
Yu Xiaoyu envied the puppy very much because she couldn't go to and from school with Yu Zhibai, but the puppy could.
Shang Nan was in the bathroom, peeling off the gauze on the wound on his neck. The light was bright and he could see clearly. There were no obvious bite marks. The deep pain seemed to be an illusion.
The wound area is very small, slightly larger than the thumbnail.
The school doctor didn't just say it casually. If Shannan took a closer look, he really looked like a flapping moth.
[14: Zhang Gou and Yu Zhibai are related.]
Shang Nan: "You just know?"
When Shang Nan's peach blossom eyes were lifted up, there was a hint of charm and softness that was inconsistent with his actual age, but he was more of a quiet gentleness and tolerance.
14 I have followed several confused hosts, and at first they would advise that after the mission failed, not only would the host’s life in the original world end, but its points would also be deducted from 100 million to tens of billions depending on the degree of mission failure. From then onAfter that, it fell in love with so and so, and died as soon as possible so that it could find a reliable one to earn points.
When receiving a non-human mission, 14 came with the determination to fail. The monster is capricious and ruthless. It seems to be bright and peaceful, but in fact it is not at all.
Like tonight.
The paper man set up such an illusion because of the host's words. It was very thoughtful and gave the host a butterfly in advance. If the host violates what he said before, then this butterfly is the paper man's sacrifice to the host.Taste.
The dead are the most important, and paper figures are very particular about this.
fortunately.
Fortunately.
14's love for the host Shang Nan has reached its peak.
[14: I felt it after seeing the bite mark on your neck.]
Shang Nan returned to the room. He turned on the desk lamp, thinking that tonight would be as chaotic as last night. He opened his eyes, and when his eyes became sore, a white butterfly flew in from the floor-to-ceiling window, its wings fluttering softly, and stayed at Shang Nan.There was no more movement next to Nan's pillow.
Seeing this butterfly, Shang Nan thought of Yu Zhibai.
He didn't know whether Yu Zhibai's temper was good or not, but his paranoia and indifference were true.The butterfly that was supposed to be a sacrifice became a gift because of Shannan's compassion.
This ceremony was originally held to appreciate the south.
Appreciation of the South determines whether it will be a funeral or a formal relationship ceremony.
Butterflies rest peacefully.
Shannan turned over and covered his head with the quilt.
The butterfly flapped its wings a few times, flew up and landed on Shannan's fingers outside the corner of the quilt.
Dai Lili went to the countryside again yesterday, and Shannan had breakfast while listening to her aunt talk.
"Young master, you have to take care of it. Madam seems to be in a daze now," the aunt gestured with her hands together. "She placed several paper-tied people in the room, big and small, and we are not allowed to touch them."
The aunt looked around, and her expression became a little complicated, "Besides, there is a paper stick on someone, sir, young master, you say this, after all, it is still a couple, why do you need to curse others after death?"
Shang Nan glanced upstairs. The door to Dai Lili's room was closed, but the atmosphere around the room was inexplicably depressing and gloomy.
He slowly fed a mouthful of porridge into his mouth. His mother didn't do it on purpose.
[14: She cursed not only your father, but also other people. Everything in the world has a cause and effect, and other people's causes will naturally have their own effects. There is a great possibility that the curse will backfire on her.]
The aunt was also thinking about it. After she thought about it, she also said to Shannan: "Young Master, you can't do evil things. When Madam comes back, you must give Madam a good advice."
"Where did mother go?"
"I said I went to pay homage to my husband." After the aunt finished speaking, her expression changed and she cursed. She went to pay homage every year. She really couldn't understand the mistress.
"Okay," Shang Nan put down the spoon, "I'll talk to her sometime."
Auntie left with peace of mind.
However, Shan Nan remembered that Dai Lili had a mental problem for a long time. She was irritable and refused to communicate, even if the person communicating with her was Shan Nan.
Since a long time ago, "Shangnan" has been alienated from his neurotic mother.
"I'm going to school."
The aunt sent Shonan to the door. She saw the boy standing outside the yard before Shonan did. She was startled, and then she smiled, "Young Master, is that your classmate?" She saw the school uniform on the other person and the one on Shonan.The school uniforms are the same.
The sky has not yet fully lit up, and the morning mist in the villa area has not dispersed. Yu Zhibai is holding a large black paper bag in his hand. He has changed into a pure black school uniform, which makes his face even whiter. His temperament is as pure and cold as ice and snow, and his figure is thin and delicate.Pines and cypresses are generally tall and straight.
He stood in the hazy fog that was gradually dissipating, and his eyes were as soft as a piece of fog, moving closer to Shannan.
Shang Nan also saw Yu Zhibai, why was he here?
No, the access control here is very strict. How did he get in?!
[14: Nannan, it’s not a human being.]
"Okay, come in, it's cold outside." Shang Nan zipped up his coat. He wore an off-white bread coat outside his school uniform today. It was fluffy and soft, and it made his temperament look less relaxed.It's less cold and much softer.
He walked towards Yu Zhibai, walked out of the courtyard door, and stood in front of Yu Zhibai, "Why are you here?"
Yu Zhibai lowered his head slightly and looked at Shannan gently, "I want to go to school with you."
The author has something to say: The paper man must have its own standards. Once it passes the assessment and reaches the standard, it will take the initiative to approach the other party.
