Speed ​​Skating Survival [Apocalypse]

Hearing the laughter, Chen Zhong paused for a moment, frowned, and quickly took out his wallet from his trouser pocket.

A black leather wallet with a torn edge, the kind that has been used for many years.

He opened his wallet, and in the era when everyone was scanning QR codes to pay bills, there were banknotes inside. "How much?"

"No, the captain invites you." Xia Bing looked at his wallet, guessing that the kid's financial situation is not good enough, "Eat it, I will take care of you in the future."

Sure enough, Chen Zhong immediately put the wallet back, took the chopsticks and pulled them desperately into his mouth, the masseter muscles on both sides of his face were very hard.

"How long has it been since you ate?" Xia Bing approached him with a box of lunch, making a slight comparison. The child is only 17 years old, but his shoulders are almost as wide as his own.

Give him another half a year, and I'm afraid he will surpass himself in height and body shape.

Sure enough, Coach Lang saw the right person, and picked out this wild kid from some corner.

Chen Zhong ate a few more big mouthfuls, eating the boxed lunch with a strong urge to grab the food, his eyes wouldn't bend, he didn't restrain himself but dodged, as if he was recalling.

"When was your last meal?" Xia Bing asked again.

"The afternoon before yesterday." Chen Zhong said.

Xia Bing was so frightened that he took a mouthful of rice and almost fell out.

A few seconds later, Chen Zhong took out a post-it note and a blue ballpoint pen from his backpack, and started writing.He also has a strong pen grip, as does his eating.

After finishing writing, handed it to Xia Bing.

Xia Bing saw the longest sentence Chen Zhong wanted to say since seeing him. "I'll give you the meal money next month, and I don't owe you any favors."

"You can just say no, and write a small note?" Xia Bing looked at his red ears.His handwriting is very beautiful, tough and hard-tipped calligraphy, with edges and corners, but Xia Bing is inexplicably familiar.

Chen Zhong didn't speak, but his hand holding the chopsticks relaxed a lot.

"Okay, wait until you pay it back next month, I'm not in a hurry to use the money." Xia Bing didn't push it left or right, and agreed happily. Rebellious high school students have weak self-esteem, and he dares not protect himself a little bit. Turning his face, "Is there enough food? I have a small appetite and can't finish it."

Chen Zhong's swallowing of the rice stopped suddenly, there was still rice in his mouth, he chewed slowly, almost finished, and pushed the half box of rice in his hand.

Xia Bing laughed again, this kid is quite interesting, his self-esteem is higher than his height.So he picked up more than half of the shredded fish-flavored pork in his set meal. "Here, take care of yourself."

He thought that Chen Zhong would look at him anyway, but he didn't, so he hid, which was very strange.

Chen Zhong ate a few mouthfuls, and used his chopsticks to move the shredded pork that Xia Bing gave him, but he was reluctant to finish it. "who is he?"

"Him? Yan Yijun?" Xia Bing seemed to be able to understand Chen Chong's language, "Don't fight with him, he is the one who pushes up the team, the whole team protects him, he is very strong."

Chen Zhong frowned slightly. "He's not strong."

"He is really strong." Xia Bing pointed to the competition result, "Short track speed skating 500 meters in 42.1 seconds."

Chen Chong stared at Xia Bing abruptly. "41.8 seconds."

"Awesome!" Xia Bing knew that the child was talking about his own grades, so he asked him in the car if he didn't tell, but now he said, "Also, he is actually... my ex-boyfriend. But we have already broken up. , they dumped me."

After saying this, Xia Bing regretted it, what a fool she was to expose her sexual orientation in front of newcomers.We will train together and live together in the future.But after thinking about it, even if he didn't say it himself, Chen Chong would still hear it from various people after he joined the team. Rather than telling others, it's better to expose himself.

"Don't worry, I'm the team leader. Having a relationship in the team has already violated the regulations and has been punished." Xia Bing moved away, "I won't make the same mistake with my team members again. You should feel uncomfortable and sleep with Feiyang at night. He has no temper, but Liang Chu has a bit more temper."

"With you." Chen Zhong put down two words, concentrated on eating, and looked over while Xia Bing was not paying attention, then twisted his neck and lowered his face.

"Really sleep with me?" Xia Bing started teasing the little animals again, "If Feiyang insists on swapping with you? Who are you sleeping with?"

"You." Chen Zhong stuffed a big mouthful of shredded pork.

"Then if Feiyang lays down in this room and insists on sleeping in this room, who do you sleep with?"

Chen Zhong thought for a while, then raised his hand and wiped a grain of rice from his mouth. "Kill him, and you."

Xia Bing was rolling on the bed with her hands on her stomach laughing, children are interesting.

After this meal, Xia Bing didn't go downstairs again. When it was time to rest, Chi Feiyang ran and jumped upstairs with a particularly loud noise.Feiyang and Liangzi lived next door, and brought in newcomers by themselves, and gradually got used to Chen Zhong's old team uniform that looked like a dirty dog.

High school students who have not yet grown up, their bodies are not yet fully developed, they are poor, and they have no food, what a pity.

"Go take a shower, put on my pajamas and underwear first, and tomorrow I will take you to the team to pick up the four seasons uniform." Xia Bing threw him a stack of clothes, "It's all new, I haven't had time to wear it yet."

Chen Zhong didn't say thank you, picked up his clothes, and went straight to the bathroom.

Xia Bing had no choice but to make the bed herself. The bed was a double bed left by the landlord, and he bought a new mattress and bedding.He is a captain of a team, like a little wife, with a quilt cover and a pillow, just like a newlywed waiting for her husband to take a shower and go to bed to create a villain's sense of sight.

This is really the first time, in the dormitory before, the young athletes helped him clean up the housework.

"Captain Xia, we are asleep!" Chi Feiyang shouted through the door, "The deputy team is sleeping downstairs."

"Sleep fast, the ward rounds will find that you two have not slept, and tomorrow morning I will run tens of thousands of meters on the ice!" Xia Bing shouted. The athletes have a very regular schedule. In order to maintain their peak condition, they trade self-discipline for their grades.

As soon as the door of the bathroom on the second floor opened, it happened to be directly opposite to Xia Bing's house. He glanced at Chen Zhong's figure, and he was sure that it was a good skin that was replaced by self-discipline.

He was only 17 years old, with two rows of abs and long legs.The calf is still good-looking and strong.

"Do you want to sleep against the wall, or next to the bed?" Xia Bing spread out the air conditioners on the two beds and turned on the cold wind. The strange cold just now disappeared, and it was very stuffy again.

With a towel on his shoulder, Chen Zhong stood at the door for a while, and when he came in again, the water on his body was almost dry.He looked over to the bed.

"I thought that an insecure child like you would like to lean against the wall." Xia Bing lay down properly, not wanting the child to misunderstand that she was a sex critic.

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhong sat down heavily on the bed and began to emphasize his age. "I will be an adult next year."

"Well, a child who is about to grow up." Xia Bing began to recall his 17-year-old appearance, high-spirited, a rising star in short track speed skating, and the whole world can win with ice skates.

In a blink of an eye, a newcomer is about to be brought in, and this newcomer still has to take over from his new team.

I really want to say goodbye to the ice surface.

Chen Zhong suddenly turned around, with a well-curved eyebrow. "Don't touch me while sleeping."

Xia Bing just lay down, hugged the pillow and got up again, stepping over the child's air-conditioning quilt. "I'll change with Feiyang, you live with him."

Chen Zhong's reaction was obviously stunned for a moment, his eyes came over, he glanced at the edge of Xia Bing's body and then retracted, suddenly grabbed Xia Bing's wrist and pulled him hard.

Xia Bing was dragged down and lay back on the spot, looking at him in surprise.

Chen Zhong quickly withdrew his hand, his Adam's apple slid quickly, but he didn't say anything. He flipped through the sticky notes and wrote.After finishing writing, he hurriedly handed it to Xia Bing.

"I was hit by my parents in a stress response. They touched me suddenly, and I fought back."

"Ah?" Xia Bing looked at the red mark on his wrist.

Chen Zhong turned his back to Xia Bing and wrote again.

"I went to a juvenile detention center. When I was 16 years old, I wore clothes with blue background and white stripes for several months. Didn't Coach Lang tell you?"

"No." Xia Bing understood. It turned out that he had brought a child who was injured in adolescence, and communication was very difficult. If there were too many words, he couldn't speak and could only write. "What's going on?"

Chen Zhong's whole body was tense, his neck was stuck, and his back was exerting force.Coupled with a round inch, it is indeed the frame of a problem boy.He wrote a few strokes, crossed them out, and rewrote them.

"He kept beating me when he was drunk, and then I fought back and hit him with my skates."

Xia Bing could hear the voices of Feiyang and Liangzi chatting and laughing, passing through the wall, but the atmosphere in his room was frozen to freezing point. "Did he hit you... hard?"

Chen Zhong held the post-it note, stared in one direction, wrote a few words, and stuffed it to Xia Bing.

"He hit my knee with a stick."

Xia Bing suddenly understood that even a child who has experienced domestic violence since childhood cannot resist this threat.In particular, athletes.

They lived on their legs, and everyone's legs were covered by accident insurance. If someone came up with a stick, they would attack their knees. Xia Bing also carried skates and shoes.

"It's okay, don't be nervous, I won't touch you." Xia Bing said with a smile, wanting him to relax, the child is too nervous, "Don't beat me up while I'm asleep, and then let me take the initiative at night Just hug you. I really have the habit of hugging people when I sleep, ask Feiyang if you don’t believe me."

Chen Zhong lowered his head and began to speak. "Not familiar with him."

This life is really heavy, no wonder it is called this name.Xia Bing changed the subject: "Well, people can't be chosen at birth. For example, my parents died unexpectedly and I was adopted at the age of 4. My adoptive parents were very kind to me, especially good, but they were getting older. Let’s go. But... at least, we still have the business of speed skating, right? Did you have any hobbies when you were young? I’ll ask the team to set up a game for you some other day, and everyone will be familiar with it.”

Chen Zhong looked at him sideways. "Like ice."

Xia Bing looked at him, making sure the kid had no other intentions before saying, "No, after joining the team, everyone you meet likes Bing."

After finishing speaking, Xia Bing fell asleep wrapped in a quilt facing the wall, and was terribly annoyed by the troubled child next to him, as if he had been taken advantage of inexplicably.

The laughter in the room next door faded away, and the surroundings became very quiet.Xia Bing turned off the air conditioner with the remote control at the last second of falling asleep, as if it suddenly became cold again.

Outside the window, a thick blood-red fog silently advanced and spread.

This time, Xia Bing didn't sleep very well, always dreaming of a child with skates chasing after him, as if he owed a debt of favor.When he woke up and habitually touched his phone, he realized that he slept until the afternoon.

"Fuck!" Xia Bing turned over.Practice at [-]:[-] p.m., so I led the team to skip training today.

Chen Zhong woke up suddenly when he heard the voice. He waited for a while before he was sure that it wasn't his parents rushing in to copy the guy.

"Why is it so cold? I'm freezing to death." Xia Bing shivered.As ice athletes, cold is what they are most used to, but now is definitely not the temperature that summer should have.

He first turned on the air conditioner and directly adjusted it to a warm air temperature of 28 degrees, and then drew the curtains to let the sun shine in.After pulling it apart, it looked like it had snowed outside.

It was a vast expanse of whiteness, and there were ice flakes on the glass.

"Fuck me?" Xia Bing doesn't swear at swear words very much, but today he has used up all the swear words reserved for this year, "Dou E has been wronged?"

Chen Zhong was putting on his old team uniform, and immediately stood beside Xia Bing, looking at the ice all over the floor outside the window, and the strange ice flakes inside the corner of the window, his facial features, which were not very expressive, also showed a little surprise.

The whole world was frozen, and icicles had formed overnight on the handrail of the balcony.

"What's going on?" Xia Bing wanted to call the coach, but he couldn't get through.Look again, the mobile phone can't receive the signal at all.

"You don't move in this room, I'll go and see Feiyang and the others!" Xia Bing quickly put on her clothes, pushed the door out, and bumped into the teammates who were coming to this room.

Liang Chu was still calm, and Chi Feiyang caught the little girl's appearance. "Captain Xia, why is it freezing outside? We just woke up."

"It's a catastrophic weather, right?" Chi Feiyang was quite happy, since he was a child who was looking forward to heavy snow and school holidays since he was a child, "Are we still training today? I think we can just go to the ice rink by skating."

Xia Bing just shook his head, something is wrong, even a catastrophic weather can't freeze the ground, and it's dog days now. "Stay at home, don't move around, I'll go out and have a look..."

A scream came from downstairs, and Xia Bing's tense nerves were instantly broken. This cry was someone he was all too familiar with, and the words were serious.

problem occurs.

He quickly ran to the stairs, only to see Yan Yijun slammed into the door, covered in blood, and just stumbled back to the living room.

For a moment, Xia Bing forgot about the lack of mobile phone signal, and shouted to Liang Chu to call an ambulance, then grabbed the first-aid kit in the bedroom and rushed down.

The author has something to say:

Chen Zhong: Hungry, but don't tell me.
