[The Twilight Saga·Carlyle] Hidden God

Because of the dislocation of his right wrist, Edmund stayed at home for a whole week before he was allowed to step out of the house.

Today is the day he reported to Fox Middle School, and everything was perfect. — including the sun that hangs in the sky.

"The school is on the south side of the town, it's a bit far from here.—I'd better see you off." Carlisle stood on the porch, his bare skin glistening.

"Don't bother, Carlisle. ——I can do it by myself." Edmund was carrying a light-looking black schoolbag, with one leg stepping on a brand-new mountain bike pedal, and the other leg leaning on the soft ground . ——This action makes his legs look long and thin, which looks very beautiful.

"Okay. Be careful with your hands." Carlisle "teleported" to the left side of the boy, lowered his head and kissed him gently on the forehead, "Come back directly after school?"

"Of course I'll come right back." Edmund gave his parents a warm hug with his left hand. "Maybe you want to hear about my campus life?"

"Of course.—be careful on the road."

The boy patted Carlisle on the shoulder, and then rode the red mountain bike that his family bought him and turned onto the still wet path. ——The handsome vampire parent stood in place until the figure of the other party gradually faded away.

"So affectionate, Carlisle." Alice jumped down from the steps with a sly expression on her face, "Do you need me to tell Ed quietly?"

"This is your freedom, Alice." Carlisle smiled.

"What? Are you serious? Hey! Jasper, did you hear that? Our great Dr. Cullen is about to start hunting!" Alice was stunned for half a second, then showed her white teeth and smiled very Brilliant, "What's your plan?—we'll help you!"

"Thank you."

Finding the school was easy, although Edmund had never been there before.

The school, like many other buildings, is just off the road.At first glance, it doesn't look like a school. If there is no sign that says "Fox High School", it is just a row of supporting buildings built with maroon bricks.

It was surrounded by green trees and grass, and there were no gates or barbed wire, so the boy had no way of assessing its size. — but it looks pretty good.

Edmund huddled his mountain bike in the northern part of the parking lot. ——There are only a few bicycles here, and they all look old, like something from the [-]s.

No wonder Carlisle said there was no need to worry about the car being stolen. ——Because it is so eye-catching, as soon as the thief rides it out, the police will notice it immediately.

Amid the people's attention, the boy quickly left the parking lot and followed the path to an ordinary building. —a sign on the door said "Executive Office."

Even though it was sunny outside, the house was still brightly lit.The office was small, with a small reception area, a few padded folding chairs, an orange-spotted business rug on the floor, notices and awards plastered chaotically on the walls, and a grandfather clock sounding loud and clear. Loud ticking.

The room was divided in two by a long counter, in front of which were cluttered metal trash baskets full of papers, and brightly colored advertising leaflets were randomly taped to the front panel of the counter.There were three desks behind the desk, one of which was occupied by a tall, red-haired woman with glasses.

She heard Edmund's footsteps, and raising her head, she took a quick look at the boy standing before her.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes, ma'am." Edmund handed her a folder containing his admission procedures, "I'm Edmund, Edmund Cullen."

"Oh, yes, Karen." The woman nodded and smiled. —the boy speculated that this might be because she had met his older siblings and had a good impression of them. "Hello, boy. —Welcome to Forks."

"Thank you."

The woman nodded, and rummaged through her desk for a long time before handing a portfolio to Edmund.

"There are class schedules, a map of the school, and a few lecture records. You need to ask the teacher to sign it when get out of class is over, and then hand it in here when school is over."

"Yes, ma'am."

"You're welcome, child. ——Oh, I'd venture to ask." The woman showed a curious expression, "Are you Mr. Cullen's adopted child too?"

"Yes."

"Oh! What a caring doctor. He is also very handsome." The woman sighed, and then changed the subject in time to wish Edmund a happy life at school.

Holding the map in his hands, the boy studied for a long time before finding the classroom before class began. ——A very kind-looking middle-aged man, his German teacher, happily introduced him to the class.

His classmates were very excited about this. —Oh, maybe I was too excited.Edmund bets he'll be able to see a picture of himself on the campus forum tomorrow...

In short, after the classroom returned to calm, half an hour had passed.

The boy sat down by the window, spread out the textbook handed to him by the teacher, and began to listen to the class. ——His classmates always stared at him when the teacher was writing on the blackboard, which made him feel like a rare animal. As a result, after the whole class, he memorized two new words .

After German is triangle. ——I have to say that the teaching progress in this small town is still a little slower than that of Jinlunga.But Edmund thought it was a good feeling to know how to solve complex equations without taking lectures.

"Hey! Edmund Cullen."

Edmund turned to watch a blond-haired figure hurrying down the corridor towards him.

"Hi, I'm Mike Newton. — remember me? We had a German class together not long ago. You can just call me 'Mike'."

"Oh, hello, Mike. Nice to meet you." Well, he did seem to have such a face in his memory.

"Hey, are you really a child of the Cullen family?" Mike seemed a little excited, but Edmund couldn't guess the reason for his excitement at all.

"Why do you ask?"

"Because they're all more... how to say?—cold? They don't seem to want to talk to others. But I feel that you are different from them. You are warmer."

"Oh—" That's because he is still human.

"Well... if possible, would you like to have dinner together?"

"I--"

"Ed." A perfect voice cut him off.

The boy scratched his hair, looking a little puzzled. ——He seems to have heard Edward's voice just now... It's impossible, it's a sunny day, and the vampires in the Karen family should all stay at home and have nothing to do. Could it be that he was hallucinating?

"Ed." A pale and cold hand rested on his shoulder.

"...Edward." Edmund twitched the corners of his mouth, and turned to look at the handsome golden-eyed vampire.

"It's been a long wait, let's go eat now." Edward stood on the left side of the boy almost in a protective posture.Although he was talking to Edmund, those dazzling golden pupils were staring firmly at Mike Newton in front of him.

As a human, Mike looked away almost in the next second (the boy felt that he probably didn't even see the color of Edward's eyes). ——He stared at the ceiling and said that he forgot his textbook in the government classroom, and then "escaped" quickly.

"Well done, Edward.—you frightened my first friend away."

"I can hear what you're thinking.—You don't intend to get too close to Fox's people, so as not to let them notice after becoming a vampire. You've done a good job, but you need to improve. Look at me... ...They didn't even dare to look at me." Edward showed a happy expression, raised his hand and patted the other person's shoulder.

"Don't be self-indulgent, Edward. - Well, let's get down to business." Edmund followed his elder brother to the cafeteria, and the people around him still liked to stare at him (them) as always. "Why did you come to school?"

"Didn't you notice that it was raining outside?" replied Edward, "and Alice said it would last from noon till sundown.—so here I am."

"...I didn't know you liked school so much."

"Hey! Of course it's for your sake. ——The family is not at ease, so I'll come over and have a look."

"Please, I'm really not a child anymore.—I'm your age now! Of course, I'm talking before you were transformed."

"But you always have accidents that normal people rarely have. Need I give an example? - In Kierunga, I nearly drowned in the pool with leg cramps during swimming lessons; Burned by sparks during the aluminum-magnesium experiment; stuck in the bathroom by a safety lock when visiting a museum; hit on the head by a falling ladder during a theater performance; knocked down by a bicycle while crossing the road; able to drive a car to a dislocated wrist..."

"...Stop, stop, stop!" Edmund rubbed his temples, "If you continue to list, I will feel that my life is an endless tragedy. And what you said is not me problems.——I never took the initiative to find trouble, and trouble came to my door."

"So you need someone to watch."

"..." The boy puffed up his cheeks.

"Come on, Ed, sit down. It's lunch time for humans." Edward showed a bright smile.

The author has something to say: This is a long-lost update, please eat~~~

Here is the answer time~~~

1. About Bella's gender: Of course it's a girl! ! !It won't be a boy! ! !Otherwise, what about Renee Smee?What about Jacob?Changing the gender meant changing the personality as well (a girl's personality doesn't apply to a boy after all) so that "Bella" became a completely original character. ——I think this is not good, after all, original characters cannot be added casually.Otherwise, there is a feeling of being out of touch with the plot.So in this article, Bella is still a woman and will be with Edward.

2. Regarding why many people don’t like Bella, why do I still insist on the setting of the original book: First, the protagonists of this article are Edmund and Carlisle, and everyone else is a supporting role.Bella is only used as an introduction to the development of the plot. If she is missing, it will not work, and if it is too much, it will cover up the role of the protagonist, so there will be less description of the relationship between her and Edward.Second, it is impossible to have only pleasing characters in an article, otherwise the article will fail.For friends who don't like Bella, just take her as that special image.

3. Regarding the question of when Edmund transformed: it’s in this volume, it’s unmistakable.

PS: Next, I will find time to add an extra episode, please pay attention to Chapter 54, extra episode (2)
