Chasing Summer

On the first day of school.

Lin Zhexia finished her breakfast early, took the unfinished milk, carried her bag and ran downstairs to Chi Yao's house: "Mom, Uncle Wei, I'm going to school."

There is a bus stop within a short walk from the community, and you can go to No. 2 Middle School by bus in eight stops. In addition, she and Chi Yao go to school together, Lin He and the others have nothing to worry about: "Well, go, go to school and listen to the class carefully. .”

She received her textbooks and new school uniform two days in advance.

The style of the No. 2 Middle School uniform is simple, the overall color is white, only the neckline and sleeves are mixed with red and black.

— This color is much more mature and cool than the pink and white school uniform at her previous school.

Lin Zhexia put on the new school uniform and felt that she had matured accordingly.

Girls of this age yearn for the word "grow up".

When she ran to the door of Chi Yao's house, Chi Yao just pushed open the unit door and came out. She leaped over the steps and jumped in front of him, smiling and saying, "Look at me."

Chi Yao closed the unit door with his backhand.

He was not frightened by Lin Zhexia who suddenly approached him.

The main reason why she wasn't frightened was that even if Lin Zhexia rushed forward suddenly, due to the difference in height, she couldn't really get close to him, and could only barely reach his chin.

The girl in front of her simply wore a ponytail and her hair was soft.

Further down is a non-aggressive, not yet fully grown face. Lin Zhexia didn't have a very flamboyant appearance, she was a typical southern girl, fair and pure, with a pointed chin, and slightly deserted inner eyes, but she smiled like a little fox.

"What are you looking at?" Chi Yao lowered his head and said, "Looking at the dwarf?"

"..."

Lin Zhexia's good mood was shattered by the word "short". She gritted her teeth and said, "Look at my new school uniform. On the first day of school, I still want to be a good student. Don't force me to do it."

"Then you have to step back," Chi Yao said with a long tail, "—I can't see you like this."

Lin Zhexia held his breath and said, "Then you are so pitiful, you have gone blind at a young age."

Although she was a little angry, it was Lin Zhexia who hadn't gone to school with this person for a long time. Although the two of them always spent their holidays together in junior high school, when it was school time, she could only go to the girls' school alone. At this point, she was immediately relieved.

far away.

He Yang and the others were also preparing to go to the station, saw them from a distance, and waved to the two of them: "Brother Yao, Brother Xia—you two wait for me—"

Lin Zhexia walked beside Chi Yao, and said hello, "Are you going to the station too? Which bus do you take?"

He Yang said speechlessly: "Can you two care about me more? I'll drop by with you and take bus No. 3."

Chi Yao also expressed a bit of surprise at this. The specific way of expressing it was that he raised his eyes condescendingly and glanced at He Yang.

"..."

Based on years of experience in getting along with each other, He Yang keenly caught Chi Yao's glance: "No, none of you know that I was admitted to the No. 2 Middle School... the Experimental High School next to it, three stops away?"

Chi Yao withdrew that look: "Now I know."

He Yang: "..."

Lin Zhexia then said, "Now I know too."

"It turns out that you were admitted to the Experimental High School." After Chi Yao dropped that sentence, she stopped talking. Considering He Yang's mood, Lin Zhexia patted He Yang's shoulder and said a few more words, "... Although there is still a long way to go from No. 2 Middle School, I believe that as long as you study hard, you will still have a chance to catch up with us, come on, be strong."

He Yang's mood was even more complicated: "Brother Xia, you can't talk, so you can talk less."

It didn't take long for He Yang to be complicated, and he chattered endlessly: "Speaking of which, you guys actually have the same school this time, I'm really envious."

Lin Zhexia: "Don't be envious, you can barely count as our spiritual alumni."

He Yang didn't understand her trick.

Chi Yao, on the other hand, laughed after hearing this.

Lin Zhexia explained: "Because you are right next to No. 2 Middle School, the Experimental High School three stops away, and you are considered half a spiritual alumni."

He Yang: "...Thank you."

Several people walked out of the gate of the community while chatting as before, and the "Nanxiang Street" road sign with white characters on a blue background has been erected at the intersection of the street for several years.

But when Lin Zhexia passed the intersection this time, he couldn't tell, as if something had changed quietly.

Maybe it's because of his new school uniform.

Maybe it's the word "high school student".

Maybe it's because he's sixteen.

It feels like a person who has been living with his head down all of a sudden suddenly raised his head.

Then I realized that without knowing it, I had already stood at the intersection of the next stage of my life.

Going down from the bus station, there are people coming and going at the school gate.

The shift schedule is posted on the bulletin board at the door.

Everyone is around the bulletin board, looking for their names.

The full name of the No. 2 Middle School is "Cheng'an No. 2 Middle School", which is located in the center of Cheng'an District, Lianyun City.

That is where Lin Zhexia lives now.

No. 2 Middle School has a pretty good reputation, and the management is relatively not that strict, and students are not forced to live on campus. And Lianyun No. 1 Middle School, which she "missed" with, was very strict with militarized management, and even mobile phones were not allowed.

While pulling Chi Yao to squeeze in, Lin Zhexia suddenly thought: Chi Yao didn't go to No. 1 Middle School, maybe not only because he wanted to be close to home, but also because he had a free heart.

Lin Zhexia said eagerly, "Quickly see which class you are in."

The people she dragged obviously didn't have her enthusiasm.

Chi Yao was a little impatient: "Aren't you too crowded?"

Lin Zhexia: "Then you go out, I will see for myself."

What she didn't notice was that even though the man said so, he still followed her and let her drag him, with one hand vainly holding her arm to prevent her from being squeezed away by the people around him.

Lin Zhexia found Chi Yao's name in class (1) at a glance.

Excitedly, she tugged at the corner of his clothes and told him: "Chi Yao Chi Yao, you are in class one."

at the same time.

almost at the same time.

Chi Yao also said, "Class Seven."

Lin Zhexia didn't realize it: "What class seven?"

Chi Yao: "You."

The two sometimes do this kind of thing very tacitly.

For example, just like now, it's like finding fault, looking for the other party's name immediately.

Lin Zhexia looked back, and sure enough, she saw her name in the last row: "...class seven, so far away."

She was afraid that what she said was ambiguous and sounded like reluctance, so she explained: "I mean, I feel at ease after being so far away from you."

A small sneer was her answer.

As Chi Yao guessed right, No. 2 Middle School is indeed a class based on grades.

Because of the admission scores, not only are the two not in the same class, but they are also separated by the farthest distance.

According to the teaching method of No. 2 Middle School, this (1) class should be a small class, and the other classes are ordinary classes.

Lin Zhexia couldn't tell whether she wanted to be in the same class with him or not.

Her relationship with Chi Yao.

It belongs to getting together and looking at each other.

But really separated, also a bit unaccustomed.

After entering the school, there are several celebrity sculptures arranged on the small square. Walk through this square, walk up the steps, and you will find the teaching building inside.

She was not in the same class as Chi Yao, and it was not easy after she entered the senior one teaching building.

When the stairs parted, Lin Zhexia had already run up, and turned back halfway, she called Chi Yao to stop, and said seriously: "I have something to tell you."

Chi Yao felt that it was not a good thing to say.

Sure enough, Lin Zhexia said with a serious face: "I just started school, and I don't know the place well. If you want anything, you can come to Class 7 to find your eldest brother, and your eldest brother will protect you."

"..."

"Are you done?" Chi Yao asked after a while.

Lin Zhexia thought for a while: "Brother, there is only so much to say, and there is nothing left for the time being."

Chi Yao leaned against the wall at the corner of the stairs, raised his chin slightly, and suddenly said, "Actually, I have quite a few enemies at school."

"?"

"Not many, about a dozen."

Chi Yao thought for a while: "If you want, I'll form a group later and ask them to wait for you in the grove after school. Let's fight today and protect me."

Having said that, he paused slightly, and asked with a drawn-out ending: "What do you think—brother?"

"..."

Without saying a word, Lin Zhexia immediately rolled away.

Although Lin Zhexia dared to talk nonsense in front of a person who looked more like her elder brother than she did, she was actually not very outgoing.

After entering Class 1 (Seventh) of Senior High, she sat down silently on the seat with her name on it, took the initiative to say hello to the deskmate named Chen Lin next to her, and then took a book from her schoolbag and spread it out on the The table relieves the embarrassment caused by strangers.

On the contrary, the new deskmate next to her shared the gossip with her in less than three minutes: "I heard that we don't have class today, and we will start the test directly, and not all of the exams are learned before. Some What I didn't learn in the first year of high school."

Lin Zhexia was surprised by her intelligence ability: "How do you know?"

Chen Lin had some small freckles on her face, and she looked cheerful and enthusiastic.

She shook the mobile phone hidden under the textbook.

"School forum," Chen Lin explained, "There are posts from seniors and sisters who are sophomores and seniors. You can find all kinds of information on it."

Lin Zhexia is not as keen on surfing the Internet as Chen Lin is. She has never even chased after stars. She usually uses her mobile phone to search things and watch videos, and chat with Chi Yao.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Chen Lin said, "You are so calm."

Lin Zhexia said "hmm": "As a person, I am relatively calm when encountering anything."

Chen Lin thought that Lin Zhexia was very quiet, but she was a little surprised to hear her unconventional answer.

After a while.

The teacher entered the class, and sure enough, after a simple self-introduction, the homeroom teacher surnamed Xu, wearing a wool roll and wearing glasses, began to distribute the test papers: "One for each person, fill in your seat number with the student number, and the test time is 120 Minutes, after the test, hand it in and I will correct it on the spot."

As soon as the words fell, someone in the classroom couldn't help but howl.

Teacher Xu warned: "Don't whisper during the exam. I understand your urgency to meet new classmates. In the afternoon, I will set aside a special class meeting for you to introduce yourself."

The test papers are passed from the front row to the back.

Lin Zhexia held the black fountain pen, took the test paper, and scanned the questions from beginning to end.

Her habit is exactly the same as Chi Yao's.

This was brought out by Chi Yao since she was a child. Although her grades are not as good as his, her habit of writing questions is very similar.

After scanning the questions, she found that there were many questions on the paper...she had done them all during the holidays.

There is even that Chi Yao's "too lazy to solve" question in it, which is almost unchanged, and only a few values ​​have been changed.

"Then what," Lin Zhexia murmured silently while writing her name in the upper left corner, "Then I will barely forgive you for calling me a dwarf in the morning."

After the exam, the test papers were handed in for on-the-spot review.

Most people just reached the passing line, and the scores are terrible.

With a full score of 120, Chen Lin scored 81 points in the test. After getting the test paper, she was a little depressed: "I don't think I need to take it back to show to my parents."

As soon as she finished speaking, Teacher Xu pronounced Lin Zhexia's name.

"Lin Zhexia," Teacher Xu pushed his glasses, and took a few more glances at the students who read their names after they stood up, "110, the only three-digit number in our class, is very good, keep working hard."

After listening to the double-digit scores, the students in the audience heard "110", and couldn't help but shouted: "Damn, 110."

"This devil's paper, there is actually someone who can test three digits."

"I thought that 99 just now would be number one in the class."

"..."

Lin Zhexia did not expect that on the first day of school, she would be saluted in the class because of her test scores.

Paying attention is not the most embarrassing thing.

The most embarrassing thing was that Teacher Xu was also quite satisfied with her scores and asked her to give a speech.

Teacher Xu: "Is there anything you want to say to the new students?"

Lin Zhexia stood on the edge of the podium, holding the test paper, his mind went blank for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she didn't know what to think, and finally said: "I have nothing to say, if I have to say, I can only say, everyone can learn from me."

The audience was silent for a moment.

Then someone took the lead and applauded: "Awesome!"

When she stepped off the stage, Chen Lin couldn't help but say, "You are amazing."

Lin Zhexia already wanted to go back and strangle himself a few minutes ago: "Something may have caught my brain just now."

Chen Lin: "No, the way you spoke just now was very cool, and you are really calm."

"..." Lin Zhexia couldn't recall, "Just pretend you haven't seen me."

she now.

I really want to.

Click to open the chat box with Chi Yao.

Then type a string of "ah" in the chat box.

But no, you can't play with your mobile phone in class.

She and Chen Lin unexpectedly became acquainted because of this embarrassing incident.

After class, Chen Lin didn't understand the wrong questions in class.

Lin Zhexia told her about it.

Chen Lin took back the test paper and said, "Thank you, did you take tutoring during your vacation? The kind that asks for a tutor?"

Thinking of Chi Yao's picture, Lin Zhexia didn't look ashamed at all: "It's sort of..."

Chen Lin: "Then your tutor is quite serious in teaching, and you have taught all these questions before."

"He's not that good either." Anyway, Chi Yao wasn't here, Lin Zhexia opened his mouth and said, "He's ugly and has a bad temper."

Chen Lin: "Huh?"

"I also like to pretend."

Lin Zhexia finally said: "... Anyway, I am not very good, mainly because I am talented."

No one knew that she quietly took out her mobile phone during the break.

Click to open a chat box with someone.

Conscientiously send a villain kneeling emoticon package, and type a few lines.

-[kneel]

- Super invincible handsome guy Chi Yao

-you are awesome

-Nice to have you

- You, just, yes, me, dad! !

And the super invincible handsome guy on the opposite side returned five words very coldly.

- Go crazy and pull black again.
