Since The Red Moon Appeared - Chapter 836:
Chapter 836: My mental state is much better (1)
Number eight …
Even though the person standing on the podium was completely different from what he remembered, Lu Xin could still recognize him from his appearance and the feeling he gave off.
In his memory, people who liked to put hair gel on their hair since they were young, people who cried after being beaten, people who complained to teachers and guards but no one cared.
Number eight, who was around his age.
On the way back, Lu Xin had been guessing whether this mysterious visitor was a classmate from one of the orphanages.
However, she was still surprised to see him.
The student from the orphanage that he had been looking for had actually appeared?
In addition, the feeling was different from when he saw number 7 and number 2.
After such an urgent journey, Lu Xin suddenly saw No. 8 at Red Moon primary school in Green Harbor. An indescribable sense of closeness rose in Lu Xin’s heart. However. he did not know why, but there was a sense of warning in the sense of closeness …
For a moment, Lu Xin was at a loss for words as he looked at number eight, who was standing on the podium and giving a serious lecture.
..
..
“Lu Xin, you … You’ve returned …”
Just as he was bewildered, a trembling and slightly surprised voice suddenly sounded from the side.
Lu Xin turned around and saw teacher Lu.
She had just come down from the specially made stairs. She seemed to have come down in a hurry and was slightly out of breath.
She was looking at Lu Xin in surprise and joy, like a drowning person who had suddenly grabbed onto a straw. She was anxious, relaxed, but also a little guilty, so she was too embarrassed to greet him.
Beside her stood the old security guard of the elementary school. He was also in a panic.
Lu Xin was silent for a moment. He glanced at his sister and gestured for her to keep an eye on number eight.
Then, he turned around and walked towards miss Lu and the old security guard. He followed them to the other side of the hall.
Then, he glanced at the classroom and said, “”What’s going on?”
“You’re talking about Xu Jing?”
Seeing how calm Lu Xin was, teacher Lu quickly replied, “”I-I don’t know …”
he … He just appeared out of nowhere …
he said that he happened to pass by qingang on a business trip and remembered the place where he lived when he was young, so he came to take a look …
“..”
As she spoke, a strand of her hair on her forehead was drenched in sweat. She looked up at Lu Xin with a look of anxiety and fear in her eyes. he … He acted very normal after he came, but I clearly remember …
As he said this, a hint of fear flashed in his eyes, but he thought of something and did not continue.
“I remember that I killed him before, right?”
Lu Xin continued, “”I also remember that I tore open his chest.”
“..”
Teacher Xiaolu fell silent.
It was hard to tell if her eyes were filled with fear, worry, or guilt.
Lu Xin lowered his head and looked into her eyes.
He didn’t need his mother’s ability to read the complicated emotions in teacher Lu’s eyes.
The fear was because he had suddenly heard himself so frankly speaking about the past.
He was worried because he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and do something unpredictable.
Words of guilt …
.. Lu Xin could not understand why Lu would feel so guilty towards him.
..
“You … Are you alright?”
While Lu Xin was thinking about this question, miss Lu gathered her courage and said, ”
last time … Last time, you left after talking about the past …
I really regretted it back then. I know that I hurt you with how I acted.
“Actually, actually I didn’t want to … But, but I couldn’t help it …”
after that, I went to your place to look for you, but there was no one at home …
“..”
At this point, she couldn’t continue. She raised her head and looked at Lu Xin guiltily.
Lu Xin’s heart was suddenly enlightened.
So this was what the guilt in teacher Lu’s eyes meant …
Was she worried that the fear she had when she saw him last time had triggered him?
“I was on a business trip.”
Lu Xin shook his head and explained, ” it just so happened that someone from above sent me to Black Swamp city, then I came back and stayed for a while. But because of some other things, I’ve been busy. After a few days, I went to the South again …
When he mentioned the word “South,” miss Xiaolu did not have any other reaction.
The old security guard suddenly raised his head and glanced at Lu Xin. However, he quickly reacted and lowered his head again.
“That’s right …”
Lu Xin suddenly laughed and said to Lu, “”I’ve seen a lot of people from the past during these few trips.”
I met little seventeen in the central city, then I met number seven and number two. I didn’t expect that number eight would return to qingang directly. This is good. Look, in such a small place, there are already four of us …
“Four?”
Teacher Lu was listening quietly, but she suddenly felt that something was wrong and looked up at Lu Xin.
Lu Xin nodded subconsciously.
He suddenly realized that teacher Lu could not see his sister.
He didn’t want to scare miss Lu, so he kept silent and thought of other things to say.
“Then …”
Seeing the look on Lu Xin’s face, teacher Lu did not continue asking. After a moment of silence, she said softly, “”You came back halfway …”
“Then you … Why didn’t you come to see me when you came back?”
“..”
Lu Xin was stunned for a moment, and he didn’t know how to answer.
The last time he returned from Black Swamp city, he had actually stayed for quite a long time.
Although he was busy, he still had a few days of free time.
However, he had never thought of visiting the orphanage.
Even this time, if he didn’t know that someone had come to the red Moon orphanage, he would probably …
In the past, he liked to come here.
But ever since he had talked to teacher Lu about the past, he had lost a lot of his desire to come.
He even wanted to hide.
Teacher Lu looked at Lu Xin’s silent expression and seemed to have suddenly understood.
She tried her best to squeeze out a smile and said, ” it’s okay. You’re busy with work. I understand …
because I also want to see what’s wrong with me …
Lu Xin looked at miss Lu and explained without hiding anything. He pointed at his head and laughed, ” I told you last time that I seem to have a problem here, but I promised you that I would try my best to cure myself …
After a pause, he put down his hand and looked at teacher Lu calmly. “I feel much better now.”
“It’s true.”
“..”
Lu Xin spoke frankly and the smile on his face was sincere.
But when teacher Lu heard his words, she suddenly lowered her head, as if she was very sad.
The senior security Guard’s eyes, on the other hand, were clearly in a daze. He only glanced at Lu Xin carefully.
Didn’t I already tell them that I’m much better now?
Lu Xin could feel the sadness in Lu’s heart and the fear that she tried to hide but failed to.
He found it hard to understand.
Moreover, he felt a slight sense of defeat in his heart, and his smile was not so full.
aren’t you much better? you’re better …
After a while, teacher Lu raised her head and smiled at Lu Xin.
Lu Xin could see the tears in her eyes and the smile on her face.
He could even keenly sense how she was trying to control every muscle on her face to express a happy and confident deceiving expression. To be precise, it was like a magic show that had already revealed her secret but was still trying her best …
you don’t know how worried I was before, and how much … I’m a little scared.”
“But it’s good that you’re back,” teacher Lu said with a smile.”Xu Jing …”
Xu Jing …
Lu Xin only noticed it when Lu mentioned Xu Jing’s name for the second time.
Was that number eight’s name?
“Don’t worry,”
Lu Xin smiled at Lu and said, “”I’m back. Nothing will happen to me.”
Teacher Lu seemed to be a little startled, then she nodded hard.
..
..
“Ding …”
The electronic Bell rang. It was the school bell that Lu Xin had personally picked out.
With a bang, there was the sound of tables and chairs being pulled and kicked. Then, a group of children rushed out of the classroom.
Many of them were about to raise their arms and shout when they saw Lu Xin and her. They immediately suppressed their voices and slowed down their pace. When they reached the door, they suddenly sped up and rushed out.
sigh, you’re so muddleheaded in class, but you’re so energetic after class …
Number eight’s voice came from behind the children. She seemed to be a little helpless. you don’t have a good foundation and you don’t study hard. How can you get into junior high school? are you going to line up to work in the factory when you leave the orphanage? ”
don’t be in a hurry to play. Finish the homework I assigned you first …
“..”
Upon hearing his voice, the children who had stopped to talk to Lu Xin and Lu ran away.
“AI …”
Lu Xin and the others looked up and saw number eight, who was wearing a white shirt, suit pants, and black leather shoes.
He had a suit jacket in his arms and his hair was neatly combed.
He looked elegant and handsome, and he seemed to have the melancholic aura of a celebrity from an old movie.
Shaking her head helplessly, she walked out of the classroom and reached out her hand to Lu Xin with a smile on her face.
“Number nine, you’re Lu Xin now, right?”
He smiled sincerely and shook Lu Xin’s hand, “”It’s really been a long time since we last met …”
