Apart from Tang Leng, two demons had already been captured, and the whereabouts of another demon had been discovered. Only three demons were missing. There had been no news of them after the prison break.
Xu Liao first submitted the arrest report on Guan Bai's behalf using his probationary detective identification card. He didn't care for this bit of merit, so he gave all the credit to Guan Bai. It could be considered as doing something for this uncle.
Although the entire school was in a state of panic because of Tang Leng, the usual order had been restored. The students had also returned to their classrooms, and the teachers were also trying their best to calm the students down. Fortunately, there were no ordinary children in this school, and the teachers were all monsters. At this moment, the situation had calmed down.
Xu Liao stood guard outside the school for a few hours. When he received the news of the fourth demon being captured from his identification card, he felt a little bored. He thought to himself, Do I have to wait here for a few days until the other three demons are also captured? It wasn't easy for these demons to escape, so they shouldn't be staying in Bei Du City. The demons that haven't been captured should have already escaped. It's meaningless for me to continue guarding this school.
Although Xu Liao thought this way, he was still worried. After thinking for a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He secretly left a few Black Beetles to monitor the nearby roads in his place. Then, he floated away and went home to take a look.
As a third-year middle school student, Xu Liao knew that the high school entrance exam was very close. However, he had lost the motivation to study hard when he was confident that he would be able to get into Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school.
Especially with Sun Zhonghu's appearance, Xu Liao realized that he didn't have the strength to protect his family and the person he liked. After erasing Qu Lei's grade, he stopped studying with her.
Xu Liao even wondered if he should continue being with Qu Lei.
He even began to wonder if he should continue living with ordinary humans.
The next day, Xu Liao carried his school bag to school as usual. Other than checking his identification card on the way to confirm that there was still no news of the last three demons that had escaped, he didn't think about anything else related to demons.
In school, there was nothing much to do for the whole day.
After school, on his way home, Xu Liao was stopped by Qu Lei. The girl seemed very angry. She put her hands on her waist and asked, "Why haven't you come to me for tutoring these days? Have you given up? Even if you can't get into Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school, as long as you're willing to work hard, you can still get into a good high school. This concerns your entire life, so you definitely can't slack off at this time. "
Xu Liao wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to explain it. He once wanted to introduce his world to Qu Lei, but he met Sun Zhonghu, who made him realize that he couldn't protect Qu Lei, so he had to give up.
He couldn't tell the truth, but Xu Liao didn't want to lie to Qu Lei, so he didn't know what to say.
When Qu Lei saw Xu Liao like this, she didn't say anything else and pulled him away. They went to their usual place for tutoring and started revising for the day.
Xu Liao breathed a sigh of relief. If Qu Lei didn't continue to ask about this matter, he didn't have to explain it to her. It seemed to be the best solution. However, he knew that it didn't solve the problem at all. He would have to face this obstacle sooner or later. It was just that he didn't know when he would face it.
Xu Liao tutored with Qu Lei for two hours and sent Qu Lei home as usual. After Qu Lei entered the house, she didn't even leave her bag behind. She ran to the window and watched Xu Liao's back view as he left. She suddenly smiled and muttered to herself, "Xu Liao must feel that no matter how hard he works, he won't be able to get into Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school. That's why he's so depressed these few days and doesn't come to me for tutoring anymore. This is the first time I've seen him admit defeat. I always feel that he's cuter than usual when he's like this! "
When Qu Lei returned to her room and put down her bag, she suddenly saw a countdown timer on her desk. There was less than a month left before it hit zero. The day it hit zero was the day of the high school entrance exam. Other than Qu Lei, no one knew that this countdown timer wasn't actually for the high school entrance exam.
It was rare for Qu Lei not to revise for her homework. Instead, she stared at the countdown timer in a daze. After staring for a while, she suddenly smiled sweetly and blushed.
She subconsciously wrote a sentence that she was already very familiar with on her workbook. "If I can be used as a reward to motivate you, then as long as you can study hard in the last few months of your third year, even if you can't get into Bei Du Normal University's affiliated high school, I will be your girlfriend for a month."
After she finished writing this sentence, Qu Lei's face turned even redder. It was as if she had a fever, making her little face flush red. It was completely different from her usual cold appearance.
Qu Lei bit her lip and said in a low voice, "Xu Liao, this idiot. Does he know that I'm actually his girlfriend for this month? I promised to be your girlfriend for a month, but it's already past the time limit. You idiot, you still don't know! "
Although Qu Lei kept scolding Xu Liao, there was a sweetness in her heart. She picked up the countdown timer and played with it casually. This had become a habit of hers recently.
This countdown timer could be set to a maximum of three years. It made time pass minute by minute. It was a gift from her aunt when she traveled to Europe.
Qu Lei put the countdown timer in place. There was some hesitation on her face. She bit her lip and smiled. Then, she became hesitant again. In an instant, the expression on her face changed seven to eight times. In the end, she still couldn't make up her mind.
"Xu, you idiot. It turns out that I really don't like you. I reject you every single time, but you never give up, forcing me to say some things that you can't do. But I didn't expect that you would be able to persevere through it all …"
"Just how persistent are you? How much do you like me?"
Qu Lei thought of the little fatty she met for the first time. She also thought of the young man who worked out on the field. He had already secretly developed an eight pack by the time he was in the third year of middle school. But because of his naturally round face, he left a deep impression on his classmates. He was still called little fatty. And every time she participated in an activity, he would run over to help. He never had any complaints …
Qu Lei looked at the countdown timer and sighed. "You won't know that the time set by this countdown timer is the time we break up. On the day of the high school entrance examination, we will break up. You will never know that I was actually weak. I promised to be your girlfriend for a month, but I secretly set it for two and a half months! "
