Gao Yi held on to the wall and let out a long sigh of relief.
In front of him, the evil spirit pulled out of the water was cut in two, releasing a large amount of black energy. Bubbles bubbled up on the downward facing face, and the figure gradually faded.
When the evil spirit dies, the world inside also collapses.
The water level in the corridor gradually dropped, and a little bit of golden sunlight shone in from the window sill.
The corridor seemed to be reborn at dawn.
"Phew—done."
This was a small trial, and overall it was quite successful. The evil spirit causing trouble in the toilet was eliminated without any surprise, so that the students at school can continue to fish with confidence in the future.
This is a victory for students.
However, Gao Yi still has one biggest doubt that remains unsolved.
That is, why does this evil spirit appear here?
Where does it come from?
This issue will naturally be left unanswered. With the evil spirit himself on the streets, the answer may remain hidden forever.
【ding ding dong~☆】
The system beep sounded suddenly.
There should be a reward to be alerted, but compared to previous times, is the alert sound a little different today?
【Ding Ding Dong～Ding Ding Dong☆】
[The system is settling...]
Gao Yi glanced at the nearby toilet and quickly stepped in.
To be honest, this is still the lost ground he has just regained.
What's wrong with fishing for a while in your own territory?

Preparations for the Ice and Snow Festival...what the hell?
Gao Yi was stunned at the main interface of the system, and the "Jingle Bells" that hit his skull kept echoing in his ears.
Do people in this world prepare for festivals by killing scary creatures to add to the fun? !
So scary!
Gao Yi found five gift boxes wrapped in colorful ribbons in the system.

describe:
"Every year on snowy days, the siren head will imitate the noise of trains, steam, bells and people, in order to comfort the small town villagers who are waiting for their families to return."
"Therefore, some scholars speculate that once in peaceful times, siren heads might have been dressed in colored lights and holding walking sticks, spending holy nights with humans beside fires and pine trees."

Is it true that I am still too young?
Gao Yi curled his lips.
Holiday celebrations are indeed unreliable. They are all just businesses running promotions to defraud customers of their money.
In this world, only strength is the truth.
"Check out the new illustrations and drops..."
"that's amazing."
"happy."
An hour later, Gao Yile died.
There was no other reason. It was naturally the place where he had been injured by a street lamp head a few days ago. Because Gao Yi had soaked in water for a long time without realizing it, he felt strange again and there were faint signs of inflammation.
Teacher Ma took off his reading glasses and looked confused: "Your kid is injured, why don't you ask for leave? And why do you look like you were just fished out of the water? Xie Yingying secretly brought a water gun here again?"
"Uh... no."
Xie Yingying has rarely been very good recently, so she'd better not take the blame.
Gao Yineng said that he forgot the fact that he was injured because he was a passive [learning activist].
Studying is really scary.
If you are not careful, you may fall into it.
Before leaving school, Gao Yi handed the VR glasses he brought out from the toilet to Director Zhang. The latter burst into tears and almost knelt down to shout long live.
At this point, Gao Yi brushed his sleeves and left No. 3 Middle School calmly, heading to the Second People's Hospital of the city, ready to walk the same old road again.
The rare good news is that Dr. Wang Zijing has changed his shift today. It was an unsmiling old doctor who treated Gao Yi.
It was already evening when I came back from the doctor again.
The cold wind blew through the streets of the community where few people came and went, and the street lamps were lit up.
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. It's only five o'clock now, but it's already dark in large areas.
"It's getting cold so fast today. The scary creatures don't even have to work overtime anymore. My cousin is still training, and the factory to the east is still working overtime."
Heartbroken.
Gao Yi hunched his neck and came to the door of his unit. He saw a battle-damaged 28-bar bicycle parked at the door.
The graceful curves, the extremely solid tires, and the clear and melodious bell were simply... too hard for the old man to refuse.
This reminded Gao Yi of his grandfather.
When I was a child, my grandfather used it to take him to temple fairs, buy toys, listen to operas, and play around. Later, my grandfather left, and no one used his partner. It is still left in the old home to rust.
When I think of my grandfather, I naturally also think of my parents, who I have lost contact with so far.
We still haven't found any useful clues today. Do we really have to wait until the next super typhoon comes again?
Gao Yi was a little depressed, and returned to the door in a daze, took out the key, and was about to open the door.
"High justice."
At this time, a calm middle-aged male voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Gao Yi came back to his senses and looked up, only to see a middle-aged man coming to him at some point.
The man was wearing a knee-length black trench coat, with a straight face and sunglasses. His hands were open to the left and right, holding two cups of milk tea.
One cup of pearls and one cup of red beans.
"Which drink do you want to drink?" He held out his hands.
Gao Yi raised his hand and was stunned.
Formula conversions, truth conjectures, biological evolution, stars in the universe... all kinds of microcosms flashed by in my mind.
This outfit...could he be from some special organization? The street lamp head did not do enough to interfere with me that night. Now that the incident has come to light, they know that I have some unknown means and are ready to control me!
He asked himself which drink he wanted to drink, what special hint was it?
——Are you confessing, or do you want to die?
"Alas!"
Gao Yi leaned against the cold and hard iron door and felt the word "danger" suddenly appear above his head.
