"call......"

"Oh, so that's what happened!"

"I thought there was something wrong with the test paper!"

After learning the truth, Teacher Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Xi is a well-known top student and usually doesn't speak up, which made Li Jibin immediately think that he had said something wrong!

Immediately thinking of Chen Xi's question, he frowned:

"Ask for leave?"

"Aren't all the students in our class here today?"

"No one asked for leave."

"And which class is Lin Fan in? He's not under my jurisdiction, is he?"

this......

Chen Xi's heart skipped a beat, as if it had been suddenly pressed down by something invisible, giving him a strong feeling of suffocation.

Teacher Li's words made Chen Xi doubt herself for the first time, wondering if she was really hallucinating.

Even the homeroom teacher said they didn't know?

Does Lin Fan really not exist?

Are they crazy or am I crazy?

They say that madmen don't realize they're mad, so have I suddenly gone mad?

"Teacher, you...you really don't remember Lin Fan?"

"He's my deskmate."

"A tall guy, 1.8 meters tall, weighing 250 pounds, chubby, the kind of guy you can spot in a crowd at a glance, and from a very wealthy family."

Chen Xi listed several of Lin Fan's characteristics in one breath.

Teacher Li paused for a few seconds, blinked, and looked at Chen Xi with a strange expression:

"Chen Xi, in the teacher's impression, you are not a student who likes to play pranks."

"Teacher, I didn't. I was very serious."

Upon seeing this, Teacher Li's attitude became somewhat serious:

"Our class has 27 students, which is an odd number."

"Your grades are absolutely number one again. I've considered that some classmates will definitely ask you for help in the future, so I specially arranged for you to sit at a table by yourself."

"It's so that it's easier for them to ask you questions; having your deskmate would only cause them trouble."

"I rearranged your seat, I couldn't possibly be wrong. Putting aside whether Lin Fan is involved or not, you don't even have a deskmate!"

Everyone gave the same answer!

Teacher Li's answer made Chen Xi feel somewhat panicked.

But he wasn't in dire straits yet; he still had one piece of evidence.

He quickly took his phone out of his school uniform pocket and opened WeChat.

Although there is no internet in the classroom, he doesn't need it now. He only needs to bring up his chat history with Lin Fan to prove many things.

"Teacher, look..."

Chen Xi pointed her finger at a certain spot on the screen in advance.

He was stunned when he opened WeChat.

Lin Fan's information has disappeared!

He remembered clearly that Lin Fan and his chat box were on the third line of his WeChat account, and the other party's last message was sent at 22:12 last night.

The request was for me to bring him a panini breakfast from Kenmiki tomorrow, with an extra dollar for iced soy milk.

However, at this moment, Lin Fan's information was gone, and the third line of information was a notification from the game's official WeChat account, which was originally the content of the fourth line.

Chen Xi immediately opened the search bar and entered the name Lin Fan.

Lin Fan wasn't even listed among my friends!

Moreover, the chat content did not mention the name Lin Fan at all.

Even the class group of Class (6), which originally had 29 members including the homeroom teacher, has been reduced to 28 members!

Disappeared!

Although Chen Xi was very reluctant to admit it, at this moment, based on his own verification, Lin Fan's existence seemed to have truly disappeared!

The books in the desk are gone.

On my phone, their chat history and friend list were gone.

The people around him, and even the world itself, do not remember that he ever existed.

Lin Fan's existence in this world has almost vanished.

No one remembers that he ever existed except himself!

Because of hyperthymesia, Chen Xi has read many books, ranging from relativity to postpartum care for sows.

At this point, no theory could explain his current situation.

Teacher Li looked at Chen Xi, who was completely shocked, and frowned.

"Are you hallucinating because of too much academic pressure?"

"Okay, Chen Xi, I'll give you a sick leave slip now. Go home and get some sleep."

"Every year, our school has students who get overwhelmed by the pressure. Don't try too hard to maintain your number one ranking!"

"Yes, Chen Xi, go back and get some sleep."

The class monitor walked over and echoed.

At first, he thought Chen Xi was joking, but the other party's subsequent actions clearly proved that he was not, but really wanted to find the classmate named Lin Fan.

But where is Lin Fan in their class?

Isn't this just making something out of nothing?

"Okay, I'm going back to get some sleep."

"Thank you, teacher."

Chen Xi suppressed her disbelief and replied in as calm a tone as possible.

His behavior attracted the attention of many classmates.

Many people believe that he was hallucinating due to excessive stress.

......

Off-campus.

Chen Xi used the leave request as a kind of imperial edict to bypass the layers of security and successfully leave the school.

However, instead of following Mr. Li's advice to go home and take a nap, he planned to go to Feiyang Tennis Club.

He knew very well that his good grades were due to hyperthymesia. He played video games every day after school and didn't study at all, so where did the pressure come from?

Chen Xi still couldn't believe that a living person had suddenly disappeared like that, so he decided to go to Flying Tennis to take another look.

After all, that was the last place he and Lin Fan had ever been in contact.

Maybe... there might be some clues?

On the way there, Chen Xi glanced at the black tower in the distance, his brows furrowed.

"Does this have anything to do with you...?"

......

High school (5) class.

"Have you heard?"

"Chen Xi, the top student in Class 6, seems to have been hallucinating due to excessive academic pressure."

"I just heard from a friend in the next class that he was looking for someone named Lin Fan right after the first class in the afternoon, saying that he was his deskmate."

"At first I thought it was a rumor, but he asked the teacher in person, and someone even filmed it. It can't be wrong."

"Lin Fan? I've never seen this name on the grade ranking list."

"There's no such bag. I just checked, and let alone their Class 6, which is considered a top-performing class, there isn't a single student named Lin Fan in our school!"

"To be honest, the advanced class is exhausting; it drives people crazy with studying!"

"This Chen Xi, he always seems so relaxed, I thought he was some kind of genius, but now it seems he's been studying incredibly hard behind the scenes!"

"In previous years, there have been cases of students in the top-performing class collapsing under the pressure of studying, but those were usually students at the bottom of the class who were afraid of being kicked out. It's really rare for the top student to do something like this."

"Is Chen Xi still in the classroom?"

The brief discussion during break was abruptly ended by this sound.

The speaker was none other than Zhang Wanyi.

She was the class beauty, the section beauty, and the school beauty.

The top class has a maximum of 30 students, but only one school beauty!

For men and women of this age, body shape, appearance, and academic performance all carry significant weight.

But everything has its pros and cons. At her age and with her looks, she was destined to be ostracized by other women, and no girl answered her questions.

The men, on the other hand, were quite enthusiastic, vying to say the same thing.

The gist is that Chen Xi forced the homeroom teacher next door to go home and rest, and he won't be back until tomorrow morning.

Is the school beauty interested in Chen Xi?

Many boys mustered up their courage to find out what type of girl Zhang Wanyi liked.

"you guess?"

Zhang Wanyi rested her chin on her hand and closed her eyes slightly. Her peach blossom eyes, though closed, gave the impression that they were smiling.

Those two simple words were like an invisible wall that kept people at a distance, and no one came up to talk to them anymore.

But she seemed completely unconcerned about the opinions of those around her, and in terms of demeanor, she possessed an independence that didn't belong to a high school student.

Without saying much, he opened his eyes and looked out the window, not sure if he was looking at the scenery or the ubiquitous black tower.

Whisper softly in a voice only you can hear:

"This top student is quite interesting; he hasn't been 'cognitively contaminated' at all."

......

Tennis balls soaring high.

Chen Xi went to the front desk again, and luckily, it was the same person on duty.

"Hi beautiful, do you remember what time my friend left?"

"friend?"

"Which friend are you referring to, handsome?"

Seeing this, Chen Xi pointed to her school uniform:

"He was wearing a school uniform and came with me. He even recharged 5000 yuan to become a member, just a few hours ago."

The receptionist looked at him strangely.

"Handsome, I'm a scaredy-cat, don't scare me!"

"I clearly remember that you came alone at noon and left alone as well."

"You asked me to tell your friend you were leaving first. I thought it was someone at the stadium, but you left too quickly and I didn't have time to ask."

As expected, I don't remember.

Chen Xi was not surprised by the female receptionist's answer.

His questioning this time was nothing more than an experiment.

Based on this, we can rule out the possibility that the school is a special location.

"I'd like to see the members' recharge records, and... the surveillance footage!"

Chen Xi said earnestly.

He was prepared for the recharge records to be altered, and for Lin Fan to be undetectable by surveillance cameras.

After all, WeChat has already proven this.

But there's one thing you're sure you'll be able to capture on camera.

That was him!

Chen Xi really wanted to see what kind of thing it was that had been playing ball with him a few hours ago!
