End of ten days

Two days later, the punishment of standing at the same table was finally over, and he could sit in class like other students.

I thought I would feel better when I saw him start sitting in class, but it didn't.

It's really strange to do something bad. You're not happy before you do it, you're not happy when you do it, and you're not happy after you do it.

That being the case, why are there so many bad people in the world?

I was scared that they would find out that I did it, and I was scared that I would go to jail.

I stayed in a nervous mood for a long time, and during the second class in the afternoon, the whole room suddenly shook.

The head teacher who was giving a lecture let out a heartbreaking scream when the room began to shake, and her whole face turned red. A few seconds later, she abandoned us and ran out of the classroom as if running for her life.

She took three steps and fell down, running and crawling as if she was being chased by a man-eating tiger.

Seeing her panicked back, the classmates sat in the shaking room and looked at each other.

The teacher said that if you walked out of the classroom without her permission during class, everyone would get a zero score on the Pinyin question in the exam.

But what should we do now?

I put my hands behind my back and sat motionless on the chair. Maybe when the room stopped shaking, or when the teacher came back and saw that I was sitting farther forward than other children, he would praise me as "a good boy."

But the walls of the room began to appear cracks, the fan on the roof began to fall, and the teacher did not come back.

The rotating electric fans began to hit the students one after another. I saw with my own eyes that the people in the first row were crushed underneath. They screamed loudly and a lot of blood came out of their bodies.

Only then did someone finally start to stand up, and everyone realized something was wrong.

"Zheng Yingxiong!" My deskmate grabbed me, "Run! The classroom is about to collapse!"

"No... no..." I clasped my hands behind my back, "The teacher said..."

"Babei! The teacher is nothing!" My deskmate suddenly pulled me up, "Zheng Yingxiong! This is called an earthquake. If you don't run away, you will die!"

But I feel like I can't believe him. He is a bad boy. His classmates say he is from somewhere else, and the clothes he wears every day are dirty...

While I was hesitating, the electric fan above our heads finally failed to hold up and fell down with a loud noise. It spun and fell, looking very scary.

My deskmate pushed me hard at the critical moment and pushed me to the ground. I only felt a heat on my face, as if something splashed over me.

I stayed for a few seconds, then immediately stood up to check on my deskmate, and found that a blade of the electric fan was inserted into his chest.

He sat back on the chair and kept twitching, blood spurting from his mouth.

"Xu Jiahua..." My voice choked, and I walked forward and shook him, "Xu Jiahua..."

But I don't know what to say.

"Zheng Yingxiong... run... run..." He kept pushing me away with his dirty hands, but every time he said a word, blood spurted out of his mouth, "To the north... cough... it hurts so much. I am..."

"I'm sorry...Xu Jiahua...I'm sorry..."

"Don't apologize...run..." He pushed me, "I said I would cover you...run..."

But I really want to apologize to him. If I don't apologize now, I'm afraid I will never have the chance again.

"My meal ticket was stolen from me, Xu Jiahua, and I wronged you..." I cried loudly and said, "You must not die..."

"I know... I know..." He reached out and patted me, but he was so painful that he was sweating all over his head, "It's okay, Zheng Yingxiong... run..."

But in the next second, the whole ceiling collapsed, and in the next moment, everyone was buried together in the entire teaching building. I didn't even understand what Xu Jiahua meant by "I know" and "It doesn't matter."

Was he in so much pain that he couldn't hear me clearly?

Is he confused because he is about to die?

I was the one who framed him. I was the one who put the meal ticket in the hole in his table.

It was me who made him stand for two days.

But he wasn't angry, he just told me to run away.

But where am I going to run to...?

I really have no place to go... I don't want to run out onto the street, do my homework under that street lamp, and I don't want to go back to a house full of debris.

If I want to run...can I run back to when I was a kid?

I have done many things that made my parents angry. I want to run back to my childhood and do it all over again. This time I want to be a good boy.

Later I learned that it was impossible for anyone to run away from this thing called an "earthquake".

Whether I ran out into the street, back under a streetlight, or into a room full of debris, I could never escape.

When I woke up again, I and eight other people were hung from the ceiling of a dark room. Our hands were tied with rubber band-like ropes, and we were hanging from the ceiling like roasted ducks.

What's going on?

There were three strange people standing in the room, one with a rabbit head mask, one with a tiger head mask, and one with a dog head mask.

There was a large machine behind the three of them, and the machine's screen stopped at a ten-minute countdown.

"Good morning, nine." The rabbit-headed man spoke, "I am very happy to meet you here. You have been sleeping in front of us for twelve hours."

Is this a prison?

Because I lied, I stole, I harmed someone, so I was caught and thrown in jail!

If you are caught and imprisoned...will your parents be notified?

I'll get beaten.

The smell in the prison is really strong... From the moment I opened my eyes, I smelled a strange odor.

I've never smelled this kind of smell before, no... I should say that my nose didn't work that well before.

The remaining adults seemed to say a lot, but I was so scared at the time that I couldn’t remember anything.

"Now I need to play a game with you." The bunny-headed man continued, "What is binding your arms now is a special rope. As long as you are strong enough or rub it a little with your nails, you can free yourself from the restraints of the special rope. Once one person successfully escapes, the countdown behind me will start, for a total of ten minutes, you need to find a way to get the key to this room within ten minutes."

After speaking, he pointed to the wooden door in the corner of the room: "If someone attempts to break the door, we will impose 'sanctions' on the door-breaker here."

"Where is the key?" asked a middle-aged uncle.

At this time, I looked at the few people hanging in the air with me, and found that except for a young sister, the rest of the people seemed to be very old, either uncles or aunts.

"The key is in the well." The rabbit man walked to a corner of the room and pointed, and then I discovered that there was a round hole there.

"You can send someone down to get the key." The rabbit man said again. "If you drop five meters, you can get five gas masks. If you drop ten meters, you can get the escape key. How you want to survive is up to you. ability."
