……

Bai Wanwan had no idea how long she had been there.

After rushing into the third floor, she kept running towards the lounge, but the fire spread faster than she had imagined. The familiar corridor was completely covered by thick smoke, and many cardboard boxes and wooden frames temporarily piled up for the school anniversary also caught fire, forcing her to go around to get close to the lounge.

Those wooden frames and cardboard were practically accelerants, making the fire much bigger.

"Cough cough..."

Bai Wanwan covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve and pushed open the door to the lounge. The room was empty, with only the cushions on the sofa showing signs of being pressed down.

Lin Zhou was not there.

"Lin Zhou?"

Bai Wanwan called out again, but received no response except for the crackling sound of the flames burning in the distance. She subconsciously took out her phone to call Lin Zhou, but the screen was cracked at some point, probably broken when she was knocked down. No matter how she pressed it, it wouldn't respond.

Where did you go?

Is he already awake?

Or did they go somewhere else after hearing the broadcast?

Bai Wanwan's mind was in complete chaos. She should have left immediately, but the thought that Lin Zhou might still be sleeping somewhere made it impossible for her to walk towards the stairwell.

I can't find him.

We can't go out.

"Lin Zhou..." Bai Wanwan turned around and continued walking inside.

The smoke grew thicker and thicker, making her eyes water constantly. Even breathing felt like something was stuck in her chest, and she couldn't help but cough with every breath. But Bai Wanwan kept pushing open the nearby classrooms and storage rooms, calling out Lin Zhou's name over and over again!

No.

still none.

"Lin Zhou, Lin Zhou, Lin Zhou, Lin Zhou..."

Where exactly?

Fool.

Stupid, stupid, super stupid, invincible idiot!

Didn't we agree that we wouldn't run around?

Don't die here!

Bai Wanwan walked forward, supporting herself against the wall. Just as she rounded the corner, the heat wave that hit her made her instinctively stop. The area in front of her was completely blocked by flames, and several decorative wooden planks next to her were also burning, the firelight illuminating the entire corridor in a bright red!

She instinctively turned her head to look in the other direction, and flames were spreading from the spot she had just passed!

"..."

Bai Wanwan finally realized something.

It seems like I can't get out either.

What should I do?

Lin Zhou is still missing... Could he have already gone out? Or did he just run in by himself...?

but……

I wish Lin Zhou could get out.

Cough cough cough... Lin Zhou... Lin Zhou...

If I die, will you be sad?

Will you forget me? Or will we fall here together...?

But I'd rather you were safe and sound, and that you could escape...

Lin Zhou...

Bai Wanwan had no strength left and knelt helplessly on the ground. Under the influence of the thick smoke, she could hardly breathe.

At this moment, the huge metal frame that was originally placed against the wall had been burned and was tilted. There were still a lot of wooden boards and equipment used for the school anniversary celebration piled on it. One of the supports was completely deformed and was slowly falling towards her location.

Bai Wanwan realized this and tried to dodge, but her body couldn't keep up with her mind at all.

"..."

ended.

……

Lin Zhou, who was dozens of meters away from her, also saw this scene.

After the X-ray glasses were activated, the vision that had been completely blocked by the walls and thick smoke changed rapidly, and Lin Zhou found the familiar figure almost immediately.

"Wanwan!"

The other side of the third floor was now blocked by fire.

Bai Wanwan was still kneeling on the ground.

the most important is--

The shelf next to her was collapsing, and in just a few seconds, it would crush Bai Wanwan beneath it and engulf her in flames!

Lin Zhou's mind went blank!

There wasn't even enough time to run over there.

There were at least several dozen meters between the two people, and there was already a burning area in between. Even if he rushed forward recklessly now, he would probably be crushed by the time he got there!

Lin Zhou did not hesitate at all.

Teleportation

The first time he used this skill, it almost drained his stamina from a very short distance, but now the distance between the two of them is clearly much greater than that.

Is it possible to get through?

do not know.

Lin Zhou is too lazy to know now.

He just stared intently at Bai Wanwan's location in his X-ray vision, and activated his skill the instant the structure completely lost its balance.

Get over there!!! Wanwan!!!

……

boom--!

The metal frame collapsed completely! Flames crashed down!

Bai Wanwan subconsciously closed her eyes, but the expected pain did not appear. Instead, at the last moment, she felt something slam into her body, and then she was pulled to the side.

A tremendous crash exploded in our ears, scattering planks and equipment everywhere, sparks flying in all directions!

"Cough...cough cough..."

A familiar voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Bai Wanwan opened her eyes.

Lin Zhou was lying on top of her, one hand protecting her head, the other hand bracing himself against the ground beside him. His face was frighteningly pale, and his breathing was obviously erratic. But after confirming that Bai Wanwan in his arms was alright, his first reaction was to reach out and touch her face.

"Lin... Lin Zhou?! ...

They descended like heroes.

Is it a hallucination?

"Ha, ha... ha." At this moment, Lin Zhou was almost completely drained of his strength. His hair was singed. He stared wide-eyed, but the surroundings were filled with thick smoke, and he couldn't even catch his breath.

Even so, he still forced himself to support Bai Wanwan as they walked towards a place where the fire was less intense.

Despite being completely exhausted and nearly out of oxygen, Lin Zhou's body seemed to surge with power from nowhere, carrying Bai Wanwan forward.

"Lin...Zhou...are we...still able to get out?"

"Okay...we haven't done it yet, how can we die here?" Lin Zhou said.

"……Fool……"

Even so, Lin Zhou's vision became increasingly blurred, and he could no longer distinguish whether the flames in front of him were reality or fantasy.

He numbly dragged his legs forward, step by step, leading Bai Wanwan forward.

Is this the end?

As expected, I can't do anything...

……

Late night...

……

As his consciousness faded, Lin Zhou vaguely heard a smashing sound, it was—

Glass?

"Ding!"

A loud cracking sound rang out, followed by a rush of fresh air! Lin Zhou struggled to lift his eyes and saw a short-haired girl jump in through the window! The shattered glass gleamed in the sunlight and flames.

"..."

Then, Lin Zhou knew nothing more and fell heavily to the ground.
