    Chapter 30

    Shen Jie’s scores were on par with Wanda’s. This time the exam seats were in the front and back rows, but the order was reversed.

    After the two people sat down according to their exam numbers, they stared at each other for a long time, then smiled at each other.

    Shen Jie: “Brother, you understand.”

    Wanda: “I understand, I understand, it’s a pleasure to cooperate.”

    After checking the answers, the two started chatting on the note. They didn’t finish the Chinese test, so they continued chatting for the second half of the English test.

    -After the exam is over, let’s go have dinner together?

    -What to eat?

    -Canteen, what else do you want to eat?

    -The food in the cafeteria today is a bit scary… Do you want me to call you guys?

    – If it tastes bad, you don’t have a choice. If you call, you will be called. If there is any difficulty, you must share the same responsibility.

    -Brother Jie, speaking of which, how long have you known Brother Chao?

    We were having a good time chatting about dinner, but Wanda suddenly started to change the topic. Shen Jie opened the note and saw this line, knowing that Wanda’s gossipy heart was really a wildfire that could not be burned out and the spring breeze would blow it up again.

    Shen Jie thought about it carefully, and it seemed that he and He Chao had known each other for almost three years.

    At that time, dancing games were popular, and the streets were full of non-mainstream people. Shen Jie was usually quite well-behaved at home, but he was very wild outside the house. He secretly took money to an Internet cafe and fell in love with a Martian girl online.

    Most of these informal Internet cafes are hidden in the community, twisting and turning. After finding the house number, you bend down and sneak in. Open a small door, and inside is the world of underage and non-mainstream teenagers.

    You can enjoy it for an hour for three dollars.

    Enjoy it, enjoy it. This kind of Internet cafe is very dangerous and will be reported at every turn.

    If you are unlucky enough to be caught by the police, your parents will be called to pick it up. At that time, this was more serious than failing an exam.

    Shen Jie still remembers that after he paid the money, he walked around the venue with his phone number to find where the No. 6 machine was. Among a group of non-mainstream people with bangs covering their eyes, he saw a person sleeping in front of the computer.

    He wears a black and red jersey, his hair is very short, the letter ‘N’ is shaved arrogantly close to his ear, and there are several cigarette butts piled in the ashtray at hand.

    Just looking at the back, I feel that this person is a little too unorganized and very eye-catching.

    Unit 5.

    Unit 6 is right next to these cool guys.

    Shen Jie sat down carefully, and after pressing the power button, he found that the mouse pad was half pressed by the person next to him.He wanted to secretly take out the mouse pad, but accidentally woke him up.

    The headphones on the man’s head were already shaky, but as he raised his head, they completely slipped off and rested on his neck.

    “…” Let me go, this appearance.

    Shen Jie was startled.

    The handsome guy said nothing and continued typing on the keyboard after waking up.

    On the screen was the recently popular dance game, and even Shen Jie gritted his teeth and spent penguin coins to buy fashion items.

    For them, a cool and handsome set of clothes is simply the dignity of playing the game. In the game, everyone recognizes each other as brother and sister, but the person next to him is wearing an ugly initial suit, and the name of the game is “Unfriended”.

    In the hand speed game, the man could still find time to open a can of Coke and drink it with one hand.

    Shen Jie has long heard that there are often big brothers on the road who specialize in such Internet cafes for minors to collect protection fees, but he has never encountered them.

    Until a man with a stick in his hand opened the door and walked in.

    In the summer, the man wore a Hawaiian floral shirt. His beer belly was so big that he couldn’t button the buttons and left most of it open.He looks wretched and his face is greasy.

    The flowered shirt walked in, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and knocked on the computer desk with a stick: “I’m a little tight lately, so I have to be conscious… hurry up.”

    Just give him some money and everything will be fine. That’s what most people thought. When they arrived at Shen Jie’s place, when they were about to give him some money, his hand was suddenly held down by someone.

    He Chao stood up directly. He had finished drinking the Coke. He held the Coke can and opened it with a little force on his hand, then the can was deeply dented: “What are you taking? What are you doing?”

    Recalling this, Shen Jie wrote on paper: Brother Chao is my idol.

    In the last examination room.

    Xie Yu didn’t know what to reply for a long time. The four words “you are an idiot” were written on the paper and then blacked out with “he”.

    In the second half of the English test, several students in the back row made more and more small moves. They barely managed to throw the answers at the invigilator’s head. Tang Sen simply moved a chair and sat in the back to invigilate the exam, right next to He Chao.

    Xie Yu folded up the notes, but finally couldn’t find a suitable opportunity to hand them out.

    He Chao didn’t wait, he lay down on the table, and soon fell asleep.

    Ring the bell and wind up, and the surroundings become active again.

    He Chao was fast asleep. When he was unwinding the scroll, Xie Yu called out “he” twice, but “he” didn’t respond. He even turned away and buried his face in his arms.

    “…”

    Xie Yu conveniently helped him hand in the test paper. Before handing it in, he scanned his answer sheet from beginning to end and found that He Chao could get about 35 points for answering this set of test papers.

    The people on the side were taking advantage of the paper rewinding period to quickly check out a few more correct answers: “This question, C? What about this question, B?”

    Xie Yu made several mistakes in his answers without changing his expression.

    The monthly exam covers three subjects: Chinese, Mathematics, and English.

    After the math test in the afternoon, all the second graders in high school had two self-study classes together, and teachers from each subject went to mark the test papers.

    Liu Cunhao and the others planned to secretly go to the playground to play ball. He Chao didn’t want to stay in the classroom, so he stood up and said, “I’ll go too, let’s go.”

    Luo Wenqiang said: “Every time you just watch us beat… your ankle is still not healed?”

    He Chao: “I am too strong, I am afraid of damaging your self-confidence.”

    Liu Cunhao: “Fart.”

    He Chao added: “Really, I’m afraid of hurting you.”

    A few people chatted for a while, and they really wanted to go to the basketball court.

    He Chao took two steps out and then stepped back: “Lao Xie, are you going?”

    Xie Yu didn’t even raise his head: “Let’s go.”

    “You agreed.” He Chao directly grabbed his hand.

    Xie Yu simply felt baffled that he refused so obviously and promised nothing.

    He Chao separated the words “go well” and read it again: “Go, good.”

    Xie Yu: “…”

    Before we could reach the court, we were stopped by Director Jiang. This busy man opened the office window, stuck his head out and shouted, “What are you doing on the basketball court? What are you doing during class time? Classes 2 and 3 of high school, right? Come up here.”

    Director Jiang’s loud voice is extremely penetrating.

    Wanda staggered while holding the ball: “I’ll go, what’s so unlucky? Mad Dog doesn’t have to mark test papers, doesn’t he teach mathematics?”

    Several people stood in a row at the door of the teaching office.

    Director Jiang asked: “Explain?”

    As a sports committee member, Luo Wenqiang felt obliged to take the initiative to stand up and say: “We are practicing basketball, and our class has established a basketball team…”

    “Wait a minute,” Director Jiang got even more furious after hearing the reason, “There’s no game. How can you practice as a basketball team without a game?!”

    Luo Wenqiang was speechless.

    On the other hand, He Chao, he calmly gave a four-word answer: “Strengthen your body?”

    So all the students in the second and third classes of high school watched helplessly as a few people who had agreed to go to the basketball court ran circles on the playground in the bright sun.

    Xu Qingqing’s seat happened to be by the window. She looked at it for a long time without understanding the operation: “… What are they doing?”

    Other classmates also said they didn’t know, and guessed: “Hot, warm up?”

    Director Jiang didn’t leave. He stood in the shade and gave the children several laps: “Don’t you love sports to keep fit? Run, there are still fifteen laps…don’t go back to the classroom if you can’t finish.”

    The weather was hot and dry, with only the wind brought by running and the sweat slowly flowing down from the forehead.

    “Fifteen laps, if you’re a man, run fifteen laps,” He Chao said as he ran, “Thank you, okay?”

    Xie Yu was too lazy to care about he.

    He Chao ran more and more energetically, ran directly in front of he, then ran backwards, looked at he and said: “Bet or not, whoever finishes the fifteen laps first.”

    “You’re all boring.”

    “Don’t you dare.”

    “…”

    Director Jiang said there were fifteen laps, but he didn’t really embarrass them. He watched them run for three laps, and they left, which was equivalent to tacitly allowing them to return to work.

    The playground had been exposed to the sun for a day and had a strong smell of plastic.

    As soon as Director Jiang walked away, Liu Cunhao and Wanda supported each other and walked over: “It’s really terrible to go away.”

    Apart from the sports committee who enjoyed running, only He Chao and Xie Yu were still running.

    “Are you two crazy…” Wanda sat on the edge of the flag-raising platform, looking at the two people chasing each other, a little confused, “Are you really going to run fifteen laps?”

    Liu Cunhao was so thirsty that he thought the two of them didn’t know that the mad dog was gone. He shouted twice, but found no one paid attention to him, so he ignored him: “You guys probably really want to keep fit. Let’s go and buy some water.”

    Running is a bit addictive, going round and round.

    Dripping sweat and never-ending pace.Empty your mind and don’t think about anything. If you want to vent, just keep running forward fiercely and desperately.

    Even though he was tired, he was so tired that his breathing was short of breath, and he was so tired that the smell of blood rose up in his throat.

    Xie Yu ran to the end, his back soaked and the wind caught in his clothes.

    There was only one thought left in my mind – rush out and keep running.My whole body was burning.

    ……

    Thirteen.

    fourteen.

    Fifteen laps.

    Two people crossed the finish line at the same time.

    He Chao rushed forward a few more steps before stopping.

    He stood there for a long time, then grabbed his clothes and wiped the sweat. His waistline and abdominal muscles were exposed for a moment, and sweat trickled down his neck. After he wiped the sweat from his face, he raised his hand to give Xie Yu a high-five, and his voice was extremely low and hoarse: “Awesome, pretty awesome.”

    Xie Yu was bent over. Apart from breathing rapidly, his ears were buzzing and he couldn’t hear He Chao’s voice clearly.

    He Chao was also tired, so he lay down directly on the playground and looked up at the vast sky.

    I don’t know why, maybe it was because my brain was in a state of emptiness just now. After it stabilized, inexplicable pictures flashed before my eyes.

    “… He Chao, just study with peace of mind. You will pass the high school entrance examination soon. Teacher, there is also a set of mock papers here. When you finish, bring them over and I will teach you. With your grades, which high school in City A can’t you get into?”

    He Chao scratched his hair and didn’t want to think about it anymore. He couldn’t help but cursed: “Fuck.”

    Xie Yu calmed down for a while, sat on the edge, put his hands on the playground ground, and kicked him with his feet: “Hey.”

    He Chao answered after a while: “What are you doing?”

    Xie Yu: “I call you a fool, do you dare to agree?”

    He Chao didn’t know why he suddenly said this: “…you are the idiot.”

    “So,” Xie Yu also lay down. Their voices were a little hoarse after the strenuous exercise. They were so close that they seemed to smell the smell of washing powder mixed with sweat on He Chao’s body, “Don’t ask others, ask yourself.”
