"But whenever I sense you or hear your call near my ear, the ashes inside me become active."
"Last night, when I heard your call, it was as if the ashes inside me were ignited… so I'm sure it was your call."
"Then… I don't know what happened, as if in a haze, or perhaps out of control, I followed that feeling and left the Gymnasium."
"This…" Lin Yi rubbed his chin, furrowed his eyebrows, squinting his eyes full of wonder, "But I was sleeping in the Dormitory building last night! Hmm… About what time did you hear my call? No, wait, the timing doesn't seem important. The important thing is, I didn't call you at all!"
Li Huiyuan, too, felt conflicted: "I also don't know what happened. But when I heard your call, it was probably midnight, maybe after midnight… I remember a lot of classmates were asleep then. I dozed off a bit, but I was too restless to fall asleep."
