A preview of an upcoming story: "Ten Minutes Between Classes [Infinite Flow]"

"Ring, ring, ring..."

"Classes are now over. All teachers, stop teaching. All students, put down your practice problems and leave the school building immediately. Anyone who misses the ten-minute break will be responsible for the consequences."

Chen Bunian slowly woke up and stared in confusion at the empty classroom. Since when had the school become so considerate?

Hadn't they said seniors in their final year of high school didn't get breaks?

The classroom speakers began playing the announcement for a second time. Just as Chen Bunian hesitated over whether to follow everyone else and make a run for it, a pair of hands pulled her out of her seat.

"Run! The ten-minute break is almost over!"

"What happens if we miss it?"

Gu Zhiqiu gazed at her with dark eyes. A flicker of panic crossed them, then they settled again. "You'll be trapped where you are."

"Ring, ring, ring... The ten-minute break is over. Congratulations to the students who successfully left the school building. Those who failed to leave will be dealt with according to Article 238 of the school rules."

Chen Bunian panicked. Since when had the school rules grown to over two hundred articles?

Suddenly, two infrared beams trained on her and Gu Zhiqiu. She grabbed Gu Zhiqiu and tried to run, but Gu Zhiqiu stayed where they were and said calmly, "We can't get away."

Gu Zhiqiu's face gradually blurred. She jolted awake. The teacher at the podium was lecturing on second derivatives, something as incomprehensible as a heavenly text.

She turned around and looked at Gu Zhiqiu at the back of the classroom.

Gu Zhiqiu was looking at her too. Their eyes met, and the bell rang.

"Classes are now over. All teachers, stop teaching. All students, put down your practice problems and leave the school building immediately. Anyone who misses the ten-minute break will be responsible for the consequences."
