Chapter 30 Monsters
Regarding cannibalism, Lu Zhongren, Jiang Chanji couldn't eat Aunt Wenhua's steamed buns for nothing. He always took care of Zi Xuan as a child on the road, and Zi Xuan was indeed still a child.

"Don't go so fast, it's time to cross the road."

"The manhole cover in front is not covered, be careful not to fall in!"

"It's so annoying! Don't treat me like a child!" Zi Xuan shouted angrily, "Don't expect me to call you Sister Chanji!"

To be honest, this is right in Jiang Chanji's mind. If she really calls him sister, he still doesn't know whether he should agree or not...

"By the way, someone will go to school with us later."

When he was about to reach the agreed place with Chen Yiyi, Jiang Chanji said.

"Who?" Zi Xuan asked cautiously.

"It's also our classmate, but... um, it's a bit special. If you can't see her, don't make a fuss."

Jiang Chanji reminded.

"Can't see her? What do you mean?"

The child's strong curiosity drove Zi Xuan to ask.

"It's actually nothing, she is an extraordinary person, but she has special abilities, and she doesn't like to talk, so people always ignore her." He explained.

A few words did not make Zi Xuan understand.

"By the way, Zi Xuan, didn't you say that you are not a child?"

He suddenly thought of an interesting solution.

"Of course I'm not a child!" Zi Xuan puffed out her chest in a dignified manner.

"Well, the code of conduct in the adult world is not to be alarmed and not to make a fuss, so if you don't see her for a while, you have to pretend to see her and say hello like a mature adult."

Although Jiang Chanji is not fully grown physically, the tempering of life during this period has made him no longer the ordinary high school student who only knew how to study and play. He has matured ahead of time mentally, and understands the situation of the world better than his peers. .

Zi Xuan is worthy of being a gifted child. She thought for a while in silence, peeping at his expression from the bottom up, and asked, "Is she... familiar with you?"

Jiang Chanji shook his head, "We met during the exam the day before yesterday, and we've only met once in total."

"Then do you like her very much? Why do you care so much about her feelings?" Zi Xuan asked.

Hearing the word "like", Jiang Chanji couldn't help but froze for a moment, but immediately realized that Zi Xuan was treating him as a girl, so she was talking about the love between girls, the love between friends, not the love between men and women .

"We've only met once. I can't say whether we like it or not... She's a very easy person to get along with, and there's no pressure to be with her, but that's not the main reason."

Jiang Chanji paused and said seriously: "The main reason is that I don't want her to be treated as a monster."

"monster……"

Zi Xuan murmured to repeat the words that are not commonly used in life.

"Is this often the case? Because of being different, they are viewed with colored eyes; because they do not fit in with the group, they are excluded; they are even kept away because it is not their fault..." He said in a low voice.

No one wants to be viewed in a special light, it hurts.

He had been stared at countless times, like a monster.

When the creditors blocked the door of the shop where he worked part-time, his colleagues who had met him for a few days saw it this way. They who had been chatting and laughing immediately turned away from him, for fear that he would borrow money from them.

When he didn't know how to control his own strange powers and accidentally hurt other children when he was a child, he was seen by the children's parents and teachers like this.

"Freak without a tutor" - it sounds like he's scolding him, but he's actually scolding his parents.

Freaks, monsters, outliers.

Thorns of thorny sight.

He was bruised all over.

It is precisely because I have been injured that I know the pain of being injured, so I don't want to hurt my new friends.

Although he could guess that Chen Yiyi must have been injured, no matter what happened in the past, the past is over. Entering Hongye Academy is a new beginning, and hopefully a good one.

Zi Xuan thought silently, her pace was small, and Jiang Chanji was able to adapt to her pace and walked slowly. Anyway, today is the first day of school, so there are no courses scheduled, so don't worry.

"I understand."

She had an admiration for Jiang Chanji, because the impression he gave her before was that of a stupid, unsweetened, nutritious one that grows on his legs. He never thought that he would put himself in the shoes of others.

In fact, is she not being watched by colored eyes?
Constantly skip grades and cut classes.

Entering a new class that is unfamiliar and whose relationships have long been fixed, the classmates around are several years older than her.

Between classes, they talked about fashion, fashion, games, and fan dramas. She couldn't understand it, and even sitting in the classroom, she could feel others pointing behind her.

Curious, jealous, and contemptuous eyes were intertwined on her small body.

She also looks down on them, why waste precious time on those meaningless things?
Parents spend money to support you and pay you to go to school, is it for you to chat at school?
She often does not say a word to her classmates for a semester, and skips grades again after the final exam.

In the eyes of her classmates, she is probably also a dispensable invisible person.

"I always feel so envious..." she muttered softly.

"what?"

Jiang Chanji didn't hear her clearly, and was about to ask her again when she saw Chen Yiyi waiting at the intersection.

"Good morning!"

He said loudly, ignoring the surprised glances of the passers-by around him, because in the eyes of others, he was talking to himself, speaking to the air.

Before he said hello, Chen Yiyi stood motionless next to a tree on the roadside, not even blinking his eyelashes, as if he had become a small tree.

The "tree" moved.

She looked up at him, there was a ripple in her stagnant pupils, and then she noticed Zi Xuan next to him.

"Hello."

Zi Xuan greeted her with a natural expression.She really didn't see Chen Yiyi, but she observed her words and expressions, and through Jiang Chanji's gaze direction and the volume of her voice, she roughly judged where Chen Yiyi was standing.

The ripples in Chen Yiyi's pupils abruptly intensified, turning into waves.

"You... hello, can you... see me too?" she asked awkwardly, as if she hadn't spoken in a long time.

"I can't see." Zi Xuan shook her head, "I have had problems with my eyes since I was a child."

Huh?
Jiang Chanji was taken aback, what's wrong with this little girl's eyes?

He didn't see it and didn't listen to what Aunt Wenhua said. It stands to reason that such an important thing should be said.

He stared at Zi Xuan's eyes carefully. On her round face with baby fat that had not yet grown, the black eyes were round, big and energetic. They were also extremely agile and radiant with intelligence, like a A puppy full of curiosity about the world doesn't look like something is wrong at all.

Chen Yiyi was also startled.

Zi Xuan said solemnly, "I have a problem with my eyes. Except for my family, I can only see idiots."

It took a few seconds for Jiang Chanji to react. Is this calling him a fool?
But if you have to be serious, Zi Xuan's intelligence is not in the same dimension as ordinary people who can be admitted to the high school of Hongye Academy at a young age. In front of her, the world is probably really stupid.

After a few more seconds, Chen Yiyi understood the joke, and the corner of her mouth pursed, as if she was smiling.

Jiang Chanji sighed in his heart that he really deserves to be a gifted child. She greeted Chen Yiyi without a trace with a witty remark, and by the way, the relationship between the two was brought closer-because Chen Yiyi is not an idiot, so she could not see Chen Yiyi.

"My name is Zi Xuan, I am 11 years old this year." Zi Xuan introduced herself.

"Chen... Yiyi... 16." Chen Yiyi answered with difficulty as if she was just learning to speak.

"Let's talk about it on the way. On the first day of today, it's not good to be late." Jiang Chanji said.

Three "monsters" in a sense, heading towards the Red Leaf Academy.
