Hunting High School

Outside the library, the weather is fine.

The afterglow of the evening brushed against the towering spire of Shushan Pavilion, casting a slender shadow on the small square in front of the pavilion.

The shadow spread all the way to the shore of Linzhong Lake.

The warm wind was slightly intoxicating, and on the sparkling water, several small boats swayed leisurely. Occasionally, some suspicious black shadows clung to the side of the boat and skipped the bottom of the water, but it did not affect the students' enjoyment in the slightest.

The monsters in the lake dare not do anything to them—this is the confidence that every First University student has. Just be careful not to drop things in the water.

Not far along the shore of the lake, Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao saw a rockery. The white rocks were slightly yellowed in the setting sun. The red warning belt around the rockery is crumbling in the breeze and seems to be broken at any moment.

The two young wizards stopped in front of the rockery.

A few days ago, a kitten died here.

On a small open space in front of the rockery, an unknown senior surrounded a small open space with bamboo branches. On the thickest bamboo branch was hung a round plaque with the word 'mourning' written on it. A sketch of a kitten outlined in black marker.

There are no tombs, steles, or inscriptions.

It's just that there are many souvenirs placed in the small open space surrounded by bamboo branches.

Hair balls made of wool, cat scratching boards, cat teasing sticks, cardboard cat climbing frames, cat nests, white candles of different thicknesses, colorful blessings, silk fabrics of various weaves, Nirvana's rat head, shark's fin and so on.

"Isn't that cat Jiang Yu's? Why didn't she make a tombstone or something." Xiao Xiao seemed a little curious about this.

"She feels that the kitten will not die with peace." Zheng Qing shook her head a little sadly: "So before she completely caught the murderer, she felt ashamed to see the kitten...Since that day, she has never been here."

"I saw her in the library this morning." Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"Check the information. She is looking through the case files of all unconventional Death animals in Jiuyou University in the past ten years. She told me that if no clues can be found in the files in the past ten years, then look into the past twenty or thirty years. , there will be traces to follow after all.”

"Unwise." Xiao Xiao shook his head again and again: "If you ask her to look up the roster of monsters that specialize in eyeballs, maybe the possibility of catching the murderer will be higher. What if the murderer commits the crime for the first time?"

"You expect to discuss wisdom with a girl who has fallen out of favor?" Zheng Qing looked at Watermelon Head with pity: "Sure enough, he is doomed to a lonely life."

Xiao Xiao's face was dark, and he didn't answer.

The breeze was blowing, and a few leaves swayed and fell into the memorial pool. A few wild lanternflies skipped across the lake, lying on the burning candles, and happily nibbled on the wax oil.

Dragging its huge belly, a frog slowly crawled out of the grass.

It set its sights on the little bug that was nibbling on the wax.

Although the memory flowing in its blood tells it that those little glowing bugs are a bit hot, but for an amphibian preparing to hibernate, any food that can replenish energy should not be missed.

The frog narrowed its eyes slightly, as if falling asleep. It raised its head, opened its wide mouth, and its belly began to bulge slowly.

The light bug on the candle raised its head, shaking its tentacles in surprise.

But alas, during the day, these little bugs are always a bit of a bad touch. It didn't detect the green-skinned killer in the grass not far away.

The frog kicked its legs, and its tongue shot out, hitting the thick candle mouth hard, and then retracted quickly.

The pale yellow flame trembled, and after making a little beeping noise, it started to burn quietly again.

On the candle, the firefly that was greedy for wax has disappeared.

There were only two young wizards watching, witnessing its final outcome.

"It's really sad." Xiao Xiao lowered his eyelids, his tone was a little low: "I always turn a blind eye to the danger in front of me."

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, raised his head, adjusted his glasses, glanced at the mourning corner surrounded by bamboo branches, and his tone was full of sarcasm: "Humans always turn a blind eye when they can't do it, and regret it when they miss it. Using the dead to torture the living, pretending to be alive... In fact, most people are just alive."

"Shut up!" Zheng Qing turned his face away and looked at Xiguatou expressionlessly: "Can you have a good rest for a while?!"

"What are you living for?" Xiao Xiao ignored his complaints and asked again.

"Live longer." Zheng Qing pondered for a moment and replied solemnly.

"Then why did you live longer?" Xiao Xiao asked persistently.

"To live." Zheng Qing showed a bright smile, turned and left the lake, and walked towards the dormitory.

This question has troubled him for a long time.

But now, he finally figured it out.

To live by oneself is to live, and there are not so many important meanings to be remembered by history.

The reason for a life to exist is not that it once existed, but that it still exists now.

"Look at my immortality, sitting in front of your tombstone with a smile, sprinkling flowers for you, and weeping for you." Zheng Qing put his arm on Xiao Xiao's shoulders, gesticulating with high spirits: "I will live a little longer than you all, Finally, I will tell you the meaning of life."

"I'm sick." Xiao Xiao hugged the notebook and sighed deeply: "Pay attention to the image, someone is coming."

Zheng Qing quickly restrained his expression, tugged at the hem of his robe, and put on a solemn expression.

As a public-funded student of Jiuyou College, although Zheng Qing cannot be said to be famous, he still needs to pay attention to his image in public places.

He didn't want to be interviewed by the student union because of being reported as a "dissolute", which would affect his own scholarship.

In the breeze, the leaves of deciduous sycamores collided with each other, making a rustling sound.

The stone pavement under the shade of trees is a bit lacking in light.

But this did not affect the vision of the two young wizards.

The student walking towards them was not a stranger, but a classmate named Matthew Karen.

[Recommended, Yeguo Reading and Chasing Books is really easy to use, download yeguoyuedu here, everyone can try it soon. 】

He has long blond hair and pale skin. If he hadn't always had an expression that no one should enter, he might be more famous than Zheng Qing among this year's freshmen.

As a member of the famous Karen family in the wizarding world, he has this capital.

Obviously, Matthew also saw the two classmates holding books.

The three of them passed by each other, smiled slightly, and nodded to each other, without slowing down their steps.

"I never understood." Zheng Qing looked back at the classmate who had gone away carefully, and shook his head again and again: "As a member of the legendary Karen family, why didn't he go to Alpha Academy instead of this school that doesn't pay attention to bloodlines?" Talent's school?... His academic performance is not necessarily very good."

"Not everyone is a public-funded student." Xiao Xiao complained: "Being admitted to Jiuyou College means that his academic performance is very good. You know, I don't have any test scores yet!"

"Moreover, the way that the four colleges of the First University recruit students based on different principles is not the original intention of the establishment of the university." Without waiting for Zheng Qing to reply, Xiao Xiao continued to explain: "The original founders actually prefer to establish a 'magic school'. There are professional colleges such as Faculty of Letters, Faculty of Pharmacy, Faculty of Talismans, Faculty of Divination, etc. However, due to long-term conflicts and estrangements, the current pattern has finally formed."

"So, the school administrators often consciously adjust the roster of students and assign some students with multiple characteristics to other colleges. In the school's words, it is to promote the unity and unity of the school."

"Matthew Karen and Jiang Yu in our class belong to this type of students. If they are enrolled completely according to the roster, they may be more suitable for the environment of Alpha College."

"That is to say, it means to start from the overall situation." Zheng Qing finally concluded: "Everything is for the first university, for everything about the first university."

Xiao Xiao snorted nasally, agreeing with his opinion.
