In Laila's class schedule, the last class on Monday morning was Biology class, and the seats in that classroom were already full, but after she was added, Teacher Banner asked for a desk to be added in the last row.

Before the class bell rang, Laila lazily lay on the table with her eyes closed, when she suddenly heard the sound of a chair being pulled away, and immediately, there was a sense of presence beside her that was hard to ignore.

Who?

She opened her eyes and looked sideways——

"Good morning, Laila."

Edward Cullen, who had been missing for two whole weeks, sat in the empty seat next to her and greeted her with a smile.

"I remember..." Laila raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, and said slowly, "You don't seem to be taking this biology class."

"It wasn't before, but it has been since today," Edward smiled happily, "I applied for a course transfer."

Is it because of Bella?Lyra guessed to herself.

"There are two reasons, but I can only tell you one of them." Edward took the initiative to explain to her, he slowed down his speech, his voice was as low as an elegant cello, "I figured it out, although I should stay with you distance, but—”

Since the class bell rang at this time, it covered Edward's soft whisper.Lyra didn't catch what followed the "but," but her curiosity was never strong enough and persistent, so she didn't ask again.

Because Teacher Banner is temporarily busy, today's class is taught by a strange young female teacher, but obviously, this "strangeness" is only for Laila, because she found that the boys in the classroom Restlessness.

"She is Mr. Banner's teaching assistant, Ms. Veronica Green." Seeing Laila's puzzled expression, Edward took the initiative to explain her doubts, "Because she is beautiful and friendly, many students, especially... ...Well, boys like her very much."

Laila understood.

No wonder the faces of the boys in the classroom were filled with excitement, looking at Miss Green like a wolf that has been hungry for a long time when it sees a fat prey.

She couldn't help but carefully looked at the teaching assistant: she had soft features, a tall figure, blue-gray eyes like a misty sky, and a big golden wave, which added a bit of charm unique to mature women.

"Are you one of her admirers too?" she asked Edward, in a serious tone.

Edward choked.

"...do you think I look like that?" he asked back.

Laila turned to look at him, "It doesn't seem like it."

Edward was silent for a while, and said, "She is a good teacher, that's all." But after saying this, he found to his dismay that Lyra's attention had long been on him, because Miss Green's Bian has already started to get down to business.

"Mr. Banner asked me to leave the chapter on cell division and differentiation to him for the end, so today I will tell you—" Miss Green's voice was as soft and graceful as her appearance, and she spoke neatly. Turn around and write a line of beautiful and smooth words on the blackboard, "The law of inheritance."

"In life, we often find that if one parent has black eyes and the other has blue eyes, then most of the children will be born with black eyes; if one of the parents has big eyes, then the possibility of having a child with big eyes It will be bigger. Why is this? Because dark eyes are relatively light-colored, and big eyes are relatively small eyes are dominant inheritance..."

Rarely did the boys in this class listen to the class so earnestly and rush to speak, Laila couldn't help but lament that the charm of a beautiful woman is great, and she glanced at the person beside her inadvertently, and suddenly, something flashed in her mind.

She immediately glanced at Edward again, her eyes gradually opened with a hint of understanding.

It turned out to be like this, she thought, the strange feeling that flashed across her heart when Edward bumped into her was because of this reason.

She remembered that when she first met Edward, the other person's eyes were clearly golden brown, but last time his eyes had become as black as coal, and now—she looked at those eyes, they turned golden brown again.

"What's wrong?" Edward caught her gaze.

"Are you a chameleon?" She pointed to his eyes suspiciously, "Your eyes... will change color, today is golden brown, last time it was black, and before that it was golden brown again."

Edward froze for a moment.

"Um..." He seemed to be thinking about how to answer this question, "Have you... heard that there is a thing called contact lenses in this world?"

Very reasonable explanation.

Laila curled her lips and didn't ask any more questions.

In the next few days, Laila could see Edward every day at school. He seemed to have suddenly changed from a naughty boy to a studious baby who was never late or left early.

When eating in the restaurant at noon, she sometimes felt the gaze cast from Karen's table—from Edward or his brothers and sisters. The tall beauty named Rosalie - Lyra frowned - seemed hostile to her.

"Maybe it's because she regards you as a beauty competitor." Selma solemnly proposed a possible explanation, "You know, women always pay special attention to their own appearance, especially one who is impeccable like her. beauty."

Laila looked at Thelma, who seldom told a (cold) joke, and silently bit her spoon.

Well, today's pudding tastes good, do you want to have another one?

The Karen family really likes to be alone as Catherine said that day. Take Edward as an example, because they are in the same grade and they take several classes together. She found that Edward usually sits alone. Unless the classroom is full.

On a rare sunny day, Edward disappeared from school again, along with his brothers and sisters.

When she discovered this, Laila was enjoying crispy, golden-fried chicken wings and a salad platter in the cafeteria when she looked up and saw that the table at Karen's was empty.

Another person also noticed this, only to hear Bella's slightly hesitant question from the table next to him: "Edward...I mean, didn't the Karens come to school today?"

Jessica at the same table giggled, "Oh, Bella, you seem to pay special attention to Edward Cullen."

Bella blushed.

"It's nothing," Jessica winked at Bella. "He's a very, very attractive guy, and I'm sure a lot of the girls at school have a crush on him, but, as a friend, I have to be kind." I remind you not to waste time on him, he will not date anyone. Obviously, there is no girl here who is worthy of him." Speaking of this, her tone unconsciously became a little sour Sour taste.

"Are the Karen's not at school today?" Seeing that the topic had gone off track, Bella had to repeat the question just now with a blushing face.

"They won't come today. When the weather is fine, the Karen family will disappear." Jessica replied.

"Where did they go?"

"Supposedly, the Cullens took them out, hiking, camping, things like that, but—" Jessica said in a low voice, mysteriously, "I think that's just an excuse for them. In fact, I've always been suspicious of them. With some kind of skin disease that doesn't allow exposure to the sun, you know, every one of them has abnormally white skin, oh, sorry Bella, I didn't say what you meant..."

"No, it's okay, my mother is half albino." Bella replied sullenly, as if she suddenly lost all anger.

sunshine...

Lyra turned her attention away from Bella's table and glanced out the window.

Well, the weather is so nice.

The next day was sunny again, and when eating at noon, Laila was not surprised to see that the Karen family's table was empty again.

Laila likes the sunny weather very much. When the sun shines on her body, she has a comfortable feeling that the pores all over her body are stretched.Unfortunately, the good weather only lasted for two days.

On the morning of the third day, the temperature dropped sharply, and the gloomy sky almost made Laila think it was still night. The air outside the house was almost soaked in thick fog, cold and humid, as if there would be a heavy rain at any moment.

The weather made Laila feel depressed. She didn't even have the patience to finish a government class, so she slipped out quietly through the back door.

Where to go?

Lyra walked slowly down the quiet corridor, thinking about how to spend the time in the class she had escaped.

Oh, right.

She suddenly remembered that the book she borrowed last time had not been returned, so she turned and went to the library.

""Fox Middle School - A Century of Choice for Teenagers"?"

In the library, Lila had just taken out the Fox Middle School promotional magazine that she had borrowed last time, when a voice suddenly read the title on the cover in her ear.Her hand trembled, almost dropping the magazine on the floor.

"It's you..." She turned her head and found that Edward, whom she hadn't seen for two days, was standing behind her, her eyes fixed on the magazine in her hand.

"You—like reading this type of book?" Edward's expression was a little strange, "I mean... don't you think that there are boring and formulaic contents in them, without much nutrition?"

"You're right," Laila raised the magazine in her hand and walked towards the return desk, "so I came to return it."

"Then why did you borrow that magazine?" Edward followed her towards the classroom building after Laila finished returning the book, asking curiously as he walked.

Laila pondered for a moment, "Because... I want to know more about the school I attend."

"Generally people will learn about a school before they choose it, so as to help them make a decision, not after they have already attended." Edward looked at her, those golden brown eyes seemed to be able to see everything.

Laila stopped in her tracks.

"Well, it's actually because—" she smiled helplessly, "I heard that schools with a long history will have some...um...mysterious and interesting stories, so...but unfortunately, there are no such stories in the school library. Leave no trace of that." She shrugged.

Edward laughed.

"So, are you here to explore?"

"If you want to define it that way, it's okay." Her eyes became a little far away, "Life is too monotonous, and you have to find something interesting for yourself to do."

A few days later, a thin stack of paper clips was placed gently on the table in front of Laila.

"What is this?" She raised her head and asked.

"Some...mysterious and interesting history about Forks High School you're looking for," Edward replied. "I can only find so much. This school is as dull as its painted walls. So disappointed."

"No, of course not." Laila glanced at the information roughly, her tone was a little surprised, "How did you do it? I heard that your family only moved to Forks two years ago, why would you Do you know these?” These contents cannot be found through ordinary channels.

Edward's eyes lit up, "Are you concerned about our family?"

"...All the students in the school are very concerned about your family."

"Oh," Edward looked a little disappointed, "I have my own information channel. If you want to know anything in the future, or encounter any difficult problems, you can come to me."

"Well, thank you." Laila sincerely expressed her gratitude, but her expression suddenly changed as soon as she finished speaking.

The surrounding voices seemed to be pulled away in an instant, and a familiar feeling slipped through my heart.

"What's wrong?" Edward asked with concern after seeing all the changes in Laila's expression.

Laila didn't answer. From the perspective of others, her expression seemed to freeze for a moment, solemn and serious. The next moment, she got up abruptly and rushed out.

"Lila!" Edward called to her, and ran out after her. However, just as the bell rang, a large crowd of people poured into the hallway, separating him from her.

Laila ran swiftly across the campus, her long black hair blowing up behind her, and the students around her looked at this eager young girl in amazement.

Stay a little longer!

Stay a little longer!

She shouted anxiously in her heart, and her steps became more and more hurried.

It is a pity that God did not hear her prayer.

Or not……

There was a sudden pause in the footsteps.

Too fast, too fast.

That feeling lasted too short and too weak, and it was too late to determine where it was...

Emotions experienced a lot of ups and downs in a very short period of time. After stopping, Laila looked a little dazed.She stared forward for a while, until a slight itchiness came from her calf, which brought her back to her senses.

It turned out to be a little fluffy animal lovingly rubbing against her trouser legs, its eyes narrowed into two curved thin lines cutely, and it let out a few soft calls from time to time.

cat?

Leila raised her eyebrows, bent down, and was about to touch this cute little thing. Unexpectedly, the little thing's fluffy and soft fur suddenly trembled, and then it quickly stepped forward with four small meaty legs, at the speed of a galloping grass-mud horse. Go away.

At the same time, Edward who came in a hurry appeared in her vision.

"Laila, what happened just now?" he asked urgently.

"You must have scared it away." Laila complained blankly after answering the wrong question.

"Huh?" Edward was confused.
