She came here as a transfer student with a pen, the nib of the pen was still sharp, and her eyes were filled with a cold light to track down traitors - no one knew that this transfer student who always snatched the sweet and sour pork in the cafeteria was once a person walking on the edge of the dark night.
He walked around campus with his watch on his wrist, his watch chain entangled with the undercurrents of his family, and his fingertips entwined with the laziness pretending to be ordinary - no one expected that this relative of the school director who always ruffled her hair was standing at the forefront of underground forces.
The friction between the desks sparked sparks. He teased her, "Can the tip of the pen pierce the test paper?" And she challenged him, "Do you dare to point the hand of your watch at the bell?" During the fight, the smell of chalk dust mixed with gunpowder smoke quietly filled the air.
Under the lights of the library, she blocked the books that were suddenly thrown at him, her movements were as fast as instinct; at the playground after the rainstorm, he helped her deal with the scratched palms, and the fingertips were as hot as flames. The side-by-side competition in subject competitions has become an excuse to protect each other; the bickering during evening self-study has hidden hidden concerns.
When the shadow of the pursuit spreads into the campus, when the family conspiracy is entangled in the hair, the cold light of the pen reflects his back in front of her, and the code of the watch hides the way she can decipher it for him.
It turned out that the sharpest thing was not the tip of the pen, but the look in his eyes when he said "Don't be afraid"; the hottest thing was not the code, but the temperature when she handed over the band-aid.
Two people with secrets, their hearts beat in the chirping of cicadas, and they stayed together under the light of a sword. This entanglement that started at the desk will eventually turn "deskmates" into "the rest of their lives" - as long as the pen puts away its edge and the watch stops the alarm, they can slowly count all the summers in the fireworks of the world.
