Someone has killed again.
Zhong Qing crouched in the farthest corner beneath a desk, listening to the sound of a knife scraping against bone and flesh, trying not to be found.
But soon, the person began approaching the desk step by silent step.
Zhong Qing squeezed her eyes shut and silently screamed: Don't come closer, don't come closer, don't come closer. Don't crouch down, don't crouch down, don't crouch down. Don't find me, don't find me, don't find me.
At last, everything fell silent. She cautiously opened her eyes...
And found herself looking straight into a pair of beautiful eyes.
Her heart leapt. It was Xu Mi, her good deskmate, who had recently been named a model student.
His exquisite face was flecked with blood. His black pupils were dilated as he stared at her, and his neat school uniform wasn't the least bit rumpled.
She was trembling all over.
He asked her what she was doing there.
Zhong Qing shakily grabbed the unbloodied hem of his clothes and asked, "Why did you kill them?"
He suddenly smiled, his voice as pleasant as ever. "If I didn't kill them, they'd come kill you, Zhong Qing. You're really bad at hide-and-seek."
Zhong Qing, mocked for her poor hide-and-seek skills, stared blankly and said, "Well, thank you."
Tears still clung to her eyes.
Xu Mi gazed at her, then suddenly leaned close and licked her once. Then he said, "It's bitter."
"What?" She didn't understand.
Xu Mi said unhappily, "Your tears are so bitter."
Zhong Qing didn't know what to say. She stared at him blankly, looking like a wooden doll that would be easy to bully.
Xu Mi quickly cheered himself up and happily suggested, "If you can't cry tears that taste good, how about I kill you, Zhong Qing?"
Zhong Qing cried even louder. More and more tears fell, and he couldn't drink them fast enough.
So bitter, so bitter.
But he never killed her. He said he'd wait until she cried tears that tasted good before killing her.

Xu Mi killed so many people.
He said they were playing a game, and he always covered her eyes and told her to hide.
He praised her, saying she was getting better and better at hide-and-seek.
Finally, one day, someone found her. They told her this was a battle royale game world, and she was a player who had to evade the boss's pursuit.
Zhong Qing asked hazily who the boss was.
The person thought for a moment before saying, "It seems he has a name."
"What is it?"
"Xu Mi."
Zhong Qing was so scared she cried for several days.
The game world was peaceful and quiet during those days. They said the big boss was busy comforting someone.

Xu Mi really liked his little deskmate. She would always look at him with those bright, dewy eyes and quietly ask if he, sitting on the aisle side, could let her out.
Xu Mi maliciously said no. His little deskmate would then look so helpless she was on the verge of tears. At times like that, he thought that once the game began, he would be the first to eat this crybaby.
But, but, but, his little deskmate was so, so, so, so, so, so, so adorable when she cried...
Later, his kind little deskmate lost herself in the moment and scratched his back red. She cried and apologized, saying she was sorry, so he licked her once.
Ah, at last he'd tasted his little deskmate's sweet tears.
His little deskmate was tiny, and she would be stretched until she was sore. When she felt like she was going to be stretched too far, sweet tears would spill from her eyes.
He loved his crybaby deskmate so much.
