Sound didn't get the shrimp. She went upstairs, packed her schoolbag and put on her coat.
She wanted to go back to school and didn't want to stay with Sampson for even a second.
Her stomach rumbled, and Sound paused. She touched her stomach, thinking of the delicious dinner on the table, and thinking of Sampson robbing her of that shrimp. She made up her mind to go to school.
When Sound went downstairs with her schoolbag on her back, Amya said, "Sound, are you also going to school now?"
Also? Sound looked around the living room, and the dining room. Sampson wasn't here!
She asked suspiciously, "Did Sampson leave?"
"Yes." Amya continued, "Sampson went to school first. You haven't had dinner yet. You can leave after dinner. Since your evening class begins at 7:30, you still have time."
Sound's stomach growled again, and she pursed her lips.
She guessed that Sampson wouldn't be far away from here now, and she might meet him on the way. Therefore, she decided to go after dinner.
She put down her schoolbag and sat back at the table. She glanced at the food on the table, but it seemed that Sampson didn't eat those dishes except for the braised potato and beef brisket.
That was Sampson's favorite dish!
After dinner, Amya handed an umbrella to Sound and said, "The rain won't stop. Take it."
At the door, Jamir was waiting for Sound in the car.
As soon as Sound got into the car, she heard Jamir say, "Why did Sampson go to school without waiting for you? It's raining. It's troublesome to take the subway."
"Maybe he has something urgent to deal with." Sound said.
When she arrived at the classroom, the evening class hadn't started yet. She sat down and put her schoolbag into the desk.
Onyx pushed Sound's thermos forward and said, "I knew you would come. The hot water is ready. Drink some."
"Thank you, Onyx." Sound poured hot water into the ceramic cup and took two sips.
"It's raining so heavily. You don't have to come. Look, Reyna didn't come."
"But it's boring to stay at home."
"You can review the wrong questions."
"I am lazy at home." Sound looked around the classroom. Only a few seats were empty. She turned to smile at Onyx. "It is good and quiet to study in the classroom."
Onyx raised his chin slightly and asked, "Have you finished the monthly exam paper? The teacher has focused on it these two days. You have to do it."
"No, I didn't. I want to do it at a certain time, just like in the exam."
"It's the right time to do it. I'll be your timekeeper."
"Okay!"
Sound's eyes were as bright as the stars twinkling on the sky. After a short pause, Onyx quickly looked away and said, "If the time isn't used up, I'll grade the paper for you."
"No problem." Sound cleared the desk, took out a pen and the paper, As soon as Onyx nodded, she began the test.
When Sound was doing the test paper, Sampson was in his phone in the last row.
Sampson sent a message to a chat group of four.
Sampson: Come out!
I'm Your Brother: What?
I'm Your Brother: Who is this?
Fighting Mountain: Judging from the tone, this account was not hacked.
I'm Your Brother: I don't believe it!
Quiet Boy: Sampson?
Startled, Reid turned to look at Sampson, who was leaning against the chair and looking down at his phone.
He was shocked and immediately sent a message to the group.
Quiet Boy: Sampson! Hide your phone, please! Giacomo will come to the classroom later!
Quiet Boy: Sit a little forward, and don't leave such a big gap between your body and the desk. Put your right hand on the desk as a cover, and touch the screen with your left hand quietly.
Quiet Boy: Giacomo will not cover up for you. He will take away your phone!
I'm Your Brother: Reid, this is Sampson?
I'm Your Brother: Hey!
I'm Your Brother: Something is wrong!
I'm Your Brother: Reid, does Sampson go mad?
Quiet Boy: I don't know. Anyway, he's quite strange recently.
Quiet Boy: Sampson, I know you're watching the screen. Quickly do as what I taught you just now. Hide your phone in the desk. As soon as you find Giacomo is coming, you let go of the phone. I'm sure Giacomo can't see it.
Quiet Boy: Besides, put a book under it, or the phone will make a sound when it smashes the desk when you let go of it.
I'm Your Brother: Ha ha ha!
