"You think this, you think..." Lei Jun stopped talking mid-sentence. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, took one out, lit it and cursed, " Fuck."
Lei Jun squatted and smoked a cigarette. After a while, he stood up and said before leaving: "What are you doing, just to make yourself feel better? Don't clean up those useless things... It's useless. If you can't get over it, there's no way it will go away. Don't let me meet you next time, and go away with ease, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but find someone to beat you up."
He Chao wanted to say no, but those words kept lingering on his lips. After several twists and turns, I still didn't say anything.
Lei Jun didn't intend to say anything more to him, so he patted his pants and left.
He Chao did not go back to the classroom directly. He climbed up to the sixth floor. Although the roof of the teaching building was locked, the lock could be opened with a piece of iron wire. It was not known which locksmith had developed the method.
He opened the door and walked up. The wind on the top floor was very strong, messing up his hair and making him sober.
Occasionally people would come on the rooftop, and there were a few deflated beer cans piled in the corner, rolling to the side when the wind blew over.
He Chao lay on the rooftop, looking up without blinking, as if he saw himself in the third year of junior high school, and Fang Xiaolei, who had a tiger-like head and a tiger-like brain.
"There should be no one in the laboratory, it's already this time."
"Brother Chao, didn't the teacher say this experiment is very dangerous? Let's sneak in like this..."
"I've memorized the steps in the video, it's no problem. "
Where did you get the key?"
"Stolen."
"..."
Many voices surrounded his ears, dragging him to the bottomless place.
The thick black smoke was so choking that people couldn't breathe.
The sound of fire trucks.
There was also the anxious tone when the security guard called.
Finally, a woman asked them sternly: "Who allowed you to go in and do the experiment privately?! Teacher Liu was in the compartment inside and almost didn't save her. Who is responsible for this?!"
This matter caused a big fuss, and the students stole the keys and did the experiment privately. A chemical experiment, not to mention an accident, almost killed someone.
The Chemistry Laboratory of Moral Education Middle School is strictly controlled. There is a special cubicle in the laboratory, which is the office of the teacher on duty. It happened to be Teacher Liu's turn to be on duty that day. Who would have thought that Teacher Liu had not left after get off work, but fell asleep on the table because he was too tired from work.
If it hadn't been for the security guard's reminder that they hadn't seen Teacher Liu leave the school, they wouldn't have even known there was someone inside.
"What's going on? Fang Xiaolei, you didn't say it, right? He Chao, you did."
"I stole the key," He Chao heard his own voice ringing out bit by bit, although he was panicked when he encountered such a thing. , but he still told the truth, "I did the experiment too. I asked him to accompany me, it has nothing to do with him."
The woman was sitting on her seat, holding a red pen in her hand, pushing the cap of the pen with her thumb, going back and forth. After thinking for a long time, she finally calmed down, pinched her eyebrows and said, "I understand, you guys go back to work first... Don't talk about this to anyone else. Don't tell anyone who asks."
When she walked out of the office, Fang Xiaolei was trembling with fear.
"The teacher said she would find a way," He Chao patted Er Lei on the head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. If you want to punish me, you will punish me."
At that time, He Chao didn't know that the head teacher said he would find a way. The so-called way Just throw away the bad one and keep the good student - until Fang Xiaolei was ordered to drop out.
With Fang Xiaolei's grades, it is basically impossible to get into high school. Instead of lowering the school's admission rate, it is better to take advantage of the situation and get rid of people.
There were only a few days left before the high school entrance examination, and by the time he found out, it was already useless.
Unable to contact Er Lei, he said he had returned to his hometown. Since they dared to come up with this idea, they were sure that Erlei's family had no expectations for their children. Learning a craft and making money early would be more satisfying to them.
The school's attitude was the same as that of the head teacher. It was not a slap in the face to take back the withdrawal notice after it was released.
He who should have dropped out of school was kept and supported by everyone, while the one who shouldn't have dropped out left.
"He Chao, teacher, here is a mock paper for the high school entrance examination. You can do it and see. When you are done, bring it over and I will mark it for you alone." The woman said with a smile, "The high school entrance examination is coming soon. You can review in peace."
He Chao thought of this and felt a little nervous. nausea. He sat up and wiped his face almost embarrassedly.
Not long before this incident happened, Fang Xiaolei often came over to ask him questions and held books all day long, which frightened Lei Jun.
Fang Xiaolei said: "I want to study hard and can't keep playing like this."
Lei Jun patted his head: "Hey, Erlei, you are promising. Which school do you plan to apply for?"
"Hehe... I want to get into the second middle school. "
Because the score is the lowest?"
Is it to relieve his guilt, He Chao asked himself.
I gave up on the high school entrance exam, dropped out of school for a year, and finally came to the No. 2 Middle School, and got last place in every exam... Is it for this?
It doesn't seem to be the case.
Some things were ridiculous, and there were vaguely countless "whys" popping up, and he didn't know what kind of answer he wanted to grasp.
He Chao did not return to the classroom until the evening self-study get out of class was over.
When the bell rang, Wanda and the others cheered and went downstairs in groups carrying their bags: "Would you like to come to my room to watch a movie tonight? I downloaded it at home. It's a science fiction action movie. I heard it's really cool..."
Wanda Halfway through, he turned around and asked, "Brother Yu, are you coming?"
Xie Yu said, "No." He also had to write two sets of test papers to watch some small movie.
After taking a shower, Xie Yu picked out a few sets of midterm exam papers from major colleges and universities in City A and planned to take them in advance. Although he had not learned a lot of content later, he calmly flipped through the books during class and read them. I almost understand it.
There should be no problem with questions of this difficulty.
But Xie Yu was a little distracted while holding the pen.
He Chao was about to shut down his phone when he received Xie Yu's text message.
It's a text message, but it's really short, only two words. Where is it?
He Chao planned to pretend that he didn't see it, but when his hand touched the screen, out of nowhere, two words came back: Internet cafe.
- Explode?
-Well, you want to come? Don't sleep at night?
There are several Internet cafes near the school, among which Baobao is the most famous because it has good protection measures. When teachers come to the Internet cafe to check their posts, they will be notified urgently.
Even all the staff in the Internet cafe recognize the faces of the teachers who love to be checked in the school, especially Director Jiang. Whenever they encounter a mad dog, they will immediately sound the first level alarm.
Determined to create a safe and secure online environment for all students.
Xie Yu rarely goes to this kind of underground Internet cafe. He doesn't like the environment with stagnant air and dark light. He sits there like a decadent teenager, with a cigarette in his mouth and long bangs covering his sadness. 's eyes.
But when Xie Yu climbed over the wall to get out, he suddenly couldn't understand himself... what on earth he was doing.
It was already dark, only the street lights were still on outside, and the leaves were rustling in the wind.
A chill flowed in along the hem of his clothes. Xie Yu was about to jump off when he heard a voice not far away saying, "You don't want your feet anymore, do you? You're quite capable. You can still climb over the wall even though you're like this."
" ..."
He Chao walked over from across the street. The light was too dark to see clearly his expression. Then he slowly approached and stood under the wall and said, "What are you doing here?"
Xie Yu said, "Playing games. "
Considering Xie Yu's usual performance, this reason is completely tenable. It's normal for me to be unable to sleep at night in my second year of grade and want to go out and hang out in Internet cafes.
He Chao didn't let him jump down directly, he followed him below.
"Cripple," He Chao opened his arms and looked up at him, "jump."
Xie Yu: "You're the fucking lame."
Baoba is opposite Jinbang Restaurant. Go up from the side door of the clothing store, walk a few steps, and open in Second floor.
A certain decadent young man named He had headphones hanging around his neck and his fingers were typing on the keyboard. While he was smoking a cigarette, this man had a candy in his mouth.
He was still wearing his school uniform and had not changed.
At this point, there were a lot of people in the bar, and some of them looked familiar. Xie Yu thought for a long time before he remembered that he had seen them in the last examination room during the monthly exam.
He Chao didn't have any games he wanted to play. He just clicked on an icon he saw on the desktop. He was playing carelessly when a hand suddenly stretched out in front of him. The index finger of that hand curled up and tapped on his desktop. .
He Chao looked over and saw a child wearing a white sweater with wet hair who asked him: "How often do you come here all night?"
"Not often," He Chao said, "A month...that's all. A few times."
Xie Yu nodded, feeling that he had gained a new understanding of the world of poor students. He had never thought about this before. Then he lowered his head and typed a line in the memo on his phone: Internet cafe all night long, twice a month. .
The two teamed up to play several games. At the end of the game, Xie Yu was so sleepy that he fell asleep on his seat.
He Chao took off his headphones and stopped playing. He looked sideways at his deskmate for a long time. I realized that the crazy desire to smoke that I had been feeling when I was alone in the Internet cafe was calmed down just like that. From the moment I stood under the wall and hugged this person, I calmed down little by little.
The light in the Internet cafe was dim, and the light from the computer screen hit Xie Yu's face.
He Chao stared at it for a while, unable to move his eyes away, and bit the candy in his mouth.
The next day, He Chao and Xie Yu attended class together with dark circles under their eyes.
"What's going on with you two?" Wanda asked in surprise, "What did you do last night? Or were you forced to have a black eye by our class committee?"
Xue Xisheng never gave up. Various things often appeared on the table of He Chao and Xie Yu Various post-it notes with various formulas and words written on them, and sometimes a few words of chicken soup for the soul. There is no point in being miserable if a young man doesn't work hard. He will learn and live until he is old. Come on, you are only a little bit away from success.
If Xue Xisheng's family didn't have enough pocket money, he might have bought them a bunch of extracurricular exercises.
He Chao lay down on the table as soon as he came: "No, the Internet cafe was all night long last night."
Wanda asked: "Brother Yu too? I said why didn't you watch a movie with us yesterday."
"What movie," He Chao After staying up all night, my head hurt a little. I didn't know where my thoughts were going, so I said, "My deskmate is not that kind of person. Don't lead him into trouble."
