When the night watchman woke up, the wall clock had pointed to [-]:[-].In the attic the fire was still burning in the grate, and someone had put new wood on it while he was drunk asleep.On the sofa illuminated by the fire, the old cowboy with a red nose due to hangover lowered his eyes, yawned softly, and didn't get up. The back view in front of the attic window in the distance.

Outside the window, the sky is the blue of the frozen sea, half of Kassel College is below, and the other half is submerged in the dreamy and strange blue clouds, the mountain wind blows in the forest, and the sound is like a mournful dog crying, The trees are dragging in the fog, undulating like undulating waves.The waterfowl crossed the center of the lake quietly, and the waves disturbed the lights of several ancient castles in the reflection. The whole world seemed to be submerged in the blue ocean, quiet and cold.

The old man in a suit and vest stood there quietly, like a painting, with the warmth of the wall fire shining on his back, facing the deep blue like the sea, holding an open pocket watch in his hand.

"Time is running out, are you sure there is still time, and you don't need to take some special actions?" The night watchman had no intention of breaking this rather artistic silence, perhaps because he had known each other for too long, and he had always been to his old friend. The appearance hidden in the painting doesn't catch a cold anymore.

"Believe in young people, young people always have a way." The old man looked at the rotating hands in his pocket watch.

"There is still one more day, and we still haven't figured out what the conspiracy behind this is." The night watchman said, "How long has it been? It's been the last time we've been spinning around like this."

"There's no need to bother about this, what we should do has already been done." He said lightly.

The night watchman thought for a while, but still didn't say anything. He wiped the mouth of the wine bottle, and glanced inside with one eye to see how much was left.

"In fact, thinking back to the past, the original intention of the establishment of Kassel College was to renew the new blood for the secret party, a thorough bloodwash, fade away the stale old blood of the older generation, and let the vitality and enthusiasm like fire flow in the blood vessels again." Anger Hehe Putting on the pocket watch, my thumb caressed the complicated patterns hollowed out on the watch cover.

"Then the elders of the secret party must be very reluctant to see the scene of Kassel College." The vice principal joked.

"No. On the contrary, this proposal was made by the original elders, the three wisest old men I have ever met, and the first three school managers. The Marquis of Gambenin, Viscount Charlotte and Lord Mayek "Ange said, "The Lionheart Society was established before Kassel College. Lord Mayek saw the future he thought should be like this from Meinek, so he suggested creating a new secret party system. financial support, recruiting teaching staff to impart secret knowledge to young people. They believe that this group of young people should be the most outstanding, elite, and best group of people of this era. The future should be developed by them, and the rules should be Let them write it."

"The original ideal will always fade, even if it is carefully preserved under the glass." The night watchman rarely said a word with a lot of charm.

"Maybe it's not the photos that turn yellow, but the people looking down in front of the glass." Anger said, "I have never doubted the original intention and principles of the secret party so far, and I have never doubted that the companions who are really passionate have long It is an indisputable fact that people who died at the forefront of the battlefield can only be led by those behind them who survived, and it is also an inevitable compromise."

"But you are not dead yet, you bastard who always jumped out of the trench before the charge horn is still alive." The night watchman said quietly, "This world obeys the laws of reality, and there is no epic beauty like fairy tales. Heroes who charge into battle can triumph every time. In reality, those who are not afraid of death will always die quickly, and those who do not want to die will always live longer. If I am the person you satirized hiding in the trenches, then you He should be one of the few 'miracle boys' who survived, right?"

"But there are always a few exceptions, and I'm just one of them." Angers did not deny, "But it doesn't change anything."

"...I thought you figured it out." The vice principal sighed, "This hearing is a window for them to target you, but it is also an opportunity for you. If you are willing to seize this opportunity, I believe Many people will sacrifice their lives to accompany a gentleman."

"Exceptions are just some beautiful mistakes made by accident. Since it is a mistake, there will always be a time to return to the right. If the horn sounds again, and I will not dig out the trenches next time, it will be different from those people I despise." Ang Heat said lightly, "To win this war, we need to prepare huge sacrifices and need more people to help us, so the transfer of power is also natural, or in other words, we should be more tolerant and patient instead of sticking to it." prejudice."

"But it seems that the current school directors don't understand this truth. They cling to power and hope that the world will run according to their orders, and you can't do anything about them." The night watchman nestled on the sofa and drank wine one after another.

"At least that's how it looks right now." Angers was noncommittal.

"Well, it seems that Fingal's side is basically done." The vice principal touched the mobile phone on the coffee table and glanced at the email on it, "I thought they would get it until tomorrow morning, but I didn't expect to be able to finish work early. If It’s not passive sabotage, it’s really finding a breakthrough.”

"It is mentioned in "Book of Jin·Xiong Yuan Zhuan" that 'people's hearts belong only to Tao and righteousness.' I deeply believe it, and I firmly believe it." Angers did not have any surprises.

"Interesting, you just let go and trust these young people so completely? Is that why you hid here? I'll be honest, it's not your style. If you think you can't do anything, then someone has to do it for you Do something...or are you finally getting old?" The vice principal looked at the old friend's straight back strangely.

Angers didn't answer him, but just silently looked in the direction of the college gate.

In the turbulent blue mist there was a vaguely moving shadow, and after a long time, a slight smile appeared on his face, "Sometimes, by chance, you will look back at the young people behind you, and you will find that you can't accept your old age." "



Lin Nian was awakened from his sleep by the noisy quarrels. He opened his eyes and saw the warm yellow atmosphere of the ceiling.

He clearly remembered that he turned off the lights before going to bed.When looking at other places along the way, it was easy to notice the blond girl sleeping soundly lying on her chest, her soft face pressed against her collarbone, drooling.

Lin Nian was silent for a moment, and pushed the blond girl away with some disgust, and she rolled on the bed with a slap, and she still didn't wake up even after that.In fact, it may be awake, and it has always been awake, so you can never wake up the person who pretends to be asleep.

Pulling off the clothes on the chair beside the bed, he glanced at his watch after getting dressed. It was only 06:30 in the morning, but he had already heard the faint noise coming from outside the door, like Someone was arguing about something. Although they were far away and their voices had been deliberately lowered, they were still very clear to his hearing.

Unexpected developments are happening.

No matter what it was, Lin Nian had a reason to take a look. He casually lifted the quilt and threw it on the sleeping blonde girl on the bed. After putting on his shoes, he coughed a few times in a low voice and spit black bloody phlegm into the trash can. He got up and walked to the door, opened it and left the room.

It was already morning at six o'clock, and although not many people had woken up yet, the lights in the Norton Pavilion had already been turned on.

Lin Nian walked down the stairs along the corridor, and before reaching the front corridor, the door opened, and it was Chu Zihang who came out. Compared with Lin Nian, whose collar was a little folded when he just woke up, he was already Dressed neatly, it looked like he had been awake for a while.

"What's going on next?" Lin Nian nodded to Chu Zihang as a greeting.

"I don't know, let's talk about it first." Chu Zihang said.

"Don't let the investigation team have any other ideas." Lin Nian frowned slightly. The fact that he, Lu Mingfei and others temporarily avoided the Norton Pavilion is actually not a secret, and they can be easily found out if they are willing to investigate.

"It shouldn't be as bad as I thought. The investigation team will not act rashly the day before. They expect us to make mistakes, but they will definitely not take the initiative to show their flaws." Chu Zihang and Lin Nian walked along the corridor quickly, he From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Lin Nian's walking pace was different from usual, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it better?"

"In a broad sense, every moment is better, but in terms of feeling, it's bad, very bad." Lin Nian said.

He didn't sleep well all night, that's why he was so easily woken up by the noise on the first floor. Even in a light sleep, he felt that something in his body was constantly turning from decay to regeneration. The thermometer used to measure body temperature After exploding three sticks, he gave up the idea of ​​controlling the changes in his body, allowing the boiling and swelling feeling to run amok in his body.

"If something happens in a while, leave it to me. You wait up there for a while and don't show up." Chu Zihang knew Lin Nian very well, so he had to explain some things to him in advance to avoid accidents.

"I know." Lin Nian has never been a person who puts face above everything else, and he will retire when he should, but there are very few times when he really needs to.

He stood by the stairs on the first floor and stopped, using the cover at the corner to block his figure, while Chu Zihang walked out directly and walked down the stairs.

The original weak noise became more and more clearly heard, and it could be seen that the incident happened at the gate of the Norton Pavilion. The gate, which was supposed to be closed before nine o'clock in the morning, was now half open, and the lion in charge of the night watch The cadre of Xinhui was standing in front of the half-open door, frowning and arguing with the people outside.

"What's going on?" Chu Zihang asked as he came down the stairs.

"Oh, President, did you wake up? Nothing major happened, but two people wanted to find Lin Nian. I told them that Lin Nian was not in the Norton Hall, and they didn't believe it." The cadre turned his head and saw the approaching Chu Zihang's face showed embarrassment.

"Are you from the investigation team?" Chu Zihang walked over slowly and motioned for the Lionheart Club cadre who was blocked in front of the door to give up his seat.

"No, it shouldn't be from the investigation team. At least they said no." The cadre stepped out with some hesitation on his face, "They said that they said that the official commissioner of the executive department who returned to school is our senior sister and senior?"

Chu Zihang paused for a moment, walking non-stop, walked to the half-open door and looked outside. Sure enough, he saw two men and women wearing trench coats from the executive department and carrying backpacks in their hands. They seemed to be men and women who had just returned to the academy. .

Both of them are of Asian descent. The male has dark skin with sunburn marks on his face and neck, and his wrist shows a darker complexion. It seems that he should often work on water.His companion has less obvious tan marks. Judging from the standing posture and facial features, there are some Japanese dignified and beautiful tastes in it. Can he be regarded as a so-called "Yamato Nadeko" type of person?
"Good morning, how can I help you?" After observing the confirmed information, Chu Zihang first nodded his greetings to the two unknown men and women.

"Are you supposed to be Chu Zihang, the current president of the Lion Heart Society? I've heard of you for a long time." Upon seeing Chu Zihang, the tall man first stretched out his hand and shook Chu Zihang's hand. His smile is the same, "Ye Sheng, class of 2003, executive department number 08203118, next to me is my partner Jiude Yaji, who is in the same class as me, and also my most trusted partner in the executive department. We are Lin Nian's My friend, I came here specifically to look for Lin Nian this time."
