Chapter 2
Calm down, calm down. Let's calm down and think about anything that can be lethal.
There was too much... There was a possibility of walking inside a building where an explosion could happen, gas could leak, the building could collapse and many more things can happen. If the origin was from humans, then there could be fleeing murderers, robbers, etc.
Outside, it could be that an object falls from a high altitude or a car accident. There could be crazy newlyweds chopping people with a knife as they wish.
(AN: Lol, not actually sure about this but it's funny... : XD wild imagination. I like her )
She could accidentally trip and hit her head or accidentally die while passing by an escaping criminal.
It was too difficult to determine the cause of death.
Ning Ning hesitated and turned back inside the house.
Although her neighborhood belongs to that kind of place where anyone can saunter around and downstairs was a chaotic area with small vendors, but her home was average and the door was also anti-theft proof, inside it was always safer compared to outside.
There were many risk factors outside, under normal circumstances, the average person will certainly not encounter any, however, one can always become an unfortunate man and come across it.
Ning Ning entered the house, her mother glanced at her, then continued to watch TV.
Then she looked at her again and asked, "Why are you changing your shoes? Don't you have to go to school?"
"My stomach hurts." Ning Ning showed an expression of constipation.
"Ah?" This time her mother looked nervous and rushed to her side, supporting her while asking, "Do you need to go to the hospital to let a doctor look at you?"
Ning Ning usually likes to play, yet it hasn't affected her going to class or her grades. When she (mother Ning) met her teachers, they always praised her for being clever and lively, that was why mother Ning had no idea that she was lying.
"No need, I will just lie down." Ning Ning got past her mother and slipped into the kitchen to see that everything was normal, then returned to her room with a peace of mind.
Today, she will stay at home, if there really was an explosion or something, then that was destiny.
Nevertheless, she will pay attention to gas leaks, robberies and the like.
Ning Ning returned to her room, went towards her bed, picked up the diary and looked it thoroughly serval times but she didn't find any details regarding her death, the other part only made her mood fluctuate. For a while, she felt that if this was real, she would be really happy. Yet, currently, she felt that the emotions revealed inside the diary only caused her sadness, but, she made new discoveries, inside the diary, something called "Greenie" appeared, it was just that nothing much was mentioned. Before, she didn't discover it, because it was only mentioned once or twice. What was this thing?
Ning Ning didn't expect to hear footsteps near her room. "Xiao Ning~" Her mother called her outside of the door, before pushing the door to her room open and entering. "I just called your class teacher and asked for a leave of absence, your teacher asked you to rest for the day at home. In case you fear that your courses will drop, you can tell him and he will ask your classmates to lend notes to you."
"Oh, okay." Ning Ning didn't care much about this, in case she really didn't understand, she can always just ask her class teacher. No teacher hates hard-working students.
She thought about it for a while, then realized that this was a good opportunity to talk to Lin Ye, she immediately corrected herself and said, "Mom, no need, no need. At that time, I will just go find my friend to borrow notes to read!"
"Mhm, fine. What do you want to eat at noon?"
"Anything."
"In that case, I'll buy fish so there will be steamed fish at noon with a little stir-fry. Your dad is back from his business trip, so I will also get the sweet and sour pork rips that your dad likes."
"Okay, I won't go to the supermarket with you."
"Mhm, you take a good rest at home."
After mother Ning left, Ning Ning turned on the computer and started playing games. She doesn't have a big heart, she just feels too tired to constantly pay attention to everything around her, during this time she would scare herself to death first, that would be ridiculous.
She has always pursued the principle, that one should do the things one ought to do and have fun when one ought to have fun.
So she played with her mind at peace.
She played for an hour until her friend called her.
"Hey, how are you today? Would you like for me to visit you at noon?"
"It's no big deal, just a little stomachache, a little headache, a little fatigue and loss of appetite. If you bring me some ice cream over, I might get better."
"Screw you, aren't you just greedy for ice cream? Besides, what kind of ice cream do you eat when you are sick?"
"Yes, did anything happen at school today?"
"No, ah."
"What about off-campus?"
"No...ah, it seems that at the road west of the school something happened and it was a bit noisy but we didn't gossip nor did we know what happened."
"No matter." Ning Ning said, hearing the sound of the door opening she quickly added, "I guess I can go back to classes tomorrow, you don't have to come and visit me. I will invite you over to eat icecream tomorrow, bye-bye."
Hanging up the phone, Ning Ning frantically came out the door and saw that it was just her mother and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, I heard something happened. Do you know what happened?" Ning Ning asked while walking past.
"Ay, the roadside you take to school, there was a car accident. The car didn't hit anyone, fortunately, fortunately." Mother Ning said with a smile, "Well, you come and help me. Otherwise, I will have too many things to deal with today."
"Okay." Ning Ning and her went into the kitchen, there were no snacks.
Although it was said that there was a car accident, it occurred after the hour she went to school, the time she went to school was staggered. During this time, even if she didn't ask for sick leave, she would have already been in school and wouldn't be involved in the accident, meaning, this car accident wasn't the cause of her death.
Forget it, no matter when it was, no matter what the cause of death was, life or death she can't go out today.
At noon, Ning Ning's dad knowing that she was taking sick leave at home, said he would take her to the hospital for a check.
"You can't be like this, you know? In case you don't feel well, you need to go to the hospital to check if there is a serious illness. If it gets discovered early you can get timely treatment!
"I just have a runny tummy..."
"What if it is a stomach problem? You should be more cautious."
"No, it was only a little cold yesterday."
"No, no, no, this cannot be taken lightly."
Ning Ning was helpless and could only say, "Well, actually, I was just in a bad mood today and didn't want to go to class."
Her dad paused and stared at her for a while. Ning Ning put her hands together and promised: "Only one day, I promise, only today!"
Eventually, her father let her off, who would have thought that the biggest obstacle in avoiding her death would be her father?
But she couldn't tell her true intentions and could only endure it with tears in her eyes.
Her dad talked to her from noon until the afternoon. Ning Ning made up a fictitious friendship, saying that that friendship was the source of her sadness, this fooled her father.
As night fell, Ning Ning and her mother inquired about what happened outside but found nothing strange.
Late at night, when it was after eleven o'clock, she became tense, it was only ten more minutes before the day passed.
As she watched the time pass little by little, the tension in her heart grew stronger and stronger. Before she knew it, the time jumped from 23:59 to 00:00, she sighed with relief and collapsed on the bed.
"Alive...ha ha ha ha..."
Ning Ning couldn't stop laughing foolishly.
Tomorrow she was going to see Lin Ye. What should she say? As soon as she relaxed, Ning Ning felt sleepy and fell asleep dazedly.
