wake of the wild

"Today is the first club activity of the study club in this semester. I am very happy to see many familiar classmates, and of course many new partners..."

The president of the book club, Dai Yiran, the North American raccoon, stood on the podium and talked freely, his brows were full of spirits, and it seemed that the haze of being picked on by the jaguar had passed.He wore a light-colored formal suit today, which shows that he attaches great importance to the first appearance of formal club activities, but the suit is too slim, the arms and legs are wrapped more thinly, and the round face is more prominent, like a bean sprout that talks a lot.

The speech lasted for about six or seven minutes, most of which were high-sounding clichés. The new students below were already sleepy, and the old members also began to lose their minds. Seeing this, Xiao Kuo, who was sitting below, gave Dai Yiran a wink to remind him at the right time.

Dai Yiran frowned at him when he was talking about excitement, and continued talking for another 2 minutes before finishing with a lot of meaning: "Then, let's officially start!"

Hu Lingyu probably filled the classroom, and he was one of the few who listened carefully to the whole process.The beginning of North American raccoon is not to start reading and sharing, but to create a "comfortable sharing environment".

The twenty or so old members were obviously very familiar with it, and immediately got up and began to move the tables and chairs.Seeing this situation, the new members also helped out one after another.

Not long after, all the desks and chairs were piled up at the back of the classroom, freeing up a large area of ​​space. Xiao Kuo spread out a few carpets that had been rolled up and stood by the wall, and assembled them into a large piece. Finally, more than forty students gathered around Sitting in a circle, it seems to be having a daytime bonfire party.

The form is warm, and the hardware is indispensable. Xiao Kuo, like in the interview, acted as an "atmosphere builder", went to each window and half-blocked the curtains to make the light in the classroom soft, and then went to the podium to adjust the projection , until the picture on the big screen turns into a literary and artistic "floating life for half a day, and the fragrance of books curls up".

After finishing these tasks, he hurried back.

Everyone sat casually, there was already someone sitting beside Dai Yiran, and there was no room for the vice president.Xiao Kuo stopped at his feet and realized that he was embarrassed for a second.

Fortunately, the old member sitting next to Dai Yiran found out and hurried to the side to make room for Xiao Kuo: "Sit here, sit here."

Xiao Kuo sat down in the not-so-relaxed space, and said "thank you" to the old member twice in succession.

Dai Yiran was completely unaware of this, and was talking about the content and process of today's activities with great interest, until he was squeezed by Xiao Kuo who was sitting down, and then he gave him an unhappy look.

Xiao Kuo smiled innocently at him, and clumsily pushed up the glasses that were about to slip off.

Dai Yiran was obviously very useful, and took the initiative to move a little to the side to give his vice president more room.

Hu Lingyu sat in this half circle, facing the two club leaders who had been chosen on purpose, and took a panoramic view of everything calmly.Whether the two seniors are "criminal reservists" is hard to say for the time being, but a perfect match is certain.A bureaucratic high-profile, a hard-working low-profile, in harmony and complement each other.

But also very tacit understanding.

Although Xiao Kuo didn't change his formal attire, he changed into a new pair of glasses. During the interview, he replaced the bulky black frame with a refreshing frameless one, obviously attaching as much importance to his first appearance as Dai Yiran.

The little fox is watching the raccoon and the meerkat, but the sika is watching the little fox.

In the comfortable atmosphere, some people are chatting and laughing, some are flipping through books, only the little fox of his own family is staring straight at the president and vice president, Daji, who looks like he wants to confuse King Zhou.

Lu Qi bumped the shoulder next to him, and said in a low voice, "Restrain yourself."

Hu Lingyu came back to his senses after being touched, and immediately understood Lu Qi's meaning, and quickly asked, "Is it obvious?"

"It's very obvious." The two were very close, and Lu Qi simply stuck to his shoulder and did not leave.

Hu Lingyu quickly lowered his eyes, adjusted his emotions, and when he looked up again, he had switched from "Investigator Xiao Hu" back to "Study Club Student Hu", but he still asked worriedly: "How is it now, isn't it fierce?"

Lu Qi turned his head to check: "Yes," but he must be realistic, "I wasn't too aggressive just now."

Hu Lingyu was puzzled: "Then tell me to restrain myself."

Lu Qi: "It's too attractive, and it's easier to expose."

Hu Lingyu: "..."

Nearly 10 minutes passed, and the activities of the reading club finally officially started in the light of light music.

Today's process is that everyone first introduces a circle of simple self-introduction, and then five new members and five old members, as today's sharers, share their own reading insights, and finally Dai Yiran recommends a book to everyone Book, as one of the contents of the next club event to share and discuss.

It may be that the link is too flat and comfortable, or it may be that the scent of grass wafting from nowhere makes you feel relaxed. Hu Lingyu was quite alert at first, listening to everyone's words word by word, so as not to miss clues, but gradually, the tense nerves relaxed. , The posture also changed from sitting upright to leisurely tucking your knees.

This kind of relaxed atmosphere could be felt in the audience. Several old members were tired from sitting, and simply turned into beasts, lying on the soft carpet.

Some new members also followed suit, so not long after, a cat, a dog, a rabbit, two birds and a hamster were lying on the ground. The cat classmate was afraid that the hamster would be crushed, so he simply let the other party lie on his back. A pair of cat and mouse are harmonious and happy.

"Okay, the next classmate to share is..." Xiao Kuo looked at the list, three new members have already shared, and the fourth one is, "Hu Lingyu."

Because he was told in advance that he would share it today, Hu Lingyu was naturally well prepared, and sat in the middle of the carpet with his "Fox Manor".

"This is a foreign novel published last year. I saw it by accident, but I liked it very much after reading it..." Hu Lingyu did not lie. At this moment, he really wanted to put the good book in Amway. A beast of the fox family suddenly lost the power of the wild after being transformed into a beast, and had no way to turn back into a human, so in order to regain the power of the wild, he embarked on a fantasy adventure..."

Sharing a completely different book style from the first three paragraphs, the students sitting around suddenly became interested.

The puppy's ears stood up, the kitten stopped licking its paws, the hamster stared at its round eyes, and the rabbit pouted with its three-petal mouth.

Chihu's sharing is not only novel, but also vivid and witty in language expression. You can fully feel the enjoyment and happiness he gained in this story, and he conveys it to every listener straightforwardly and eagerly.

Lu prayed to Hu Lingyu, his expression softened unconsciously, and a slight smile appeared in his eyes.

He had never heard of this book, and he didn't know where Hu Lingyu dug it out.

But it fits the little fox style very well.

It's easy to see clearly that you're stupid, but you will always have a whimsical idea when you don't expect it.

The curtains blocked half of the sunlight, and the remaining half shone in, falling on Hu Lingyu.

The surroundings are dim, only the little fox is bright.

All of a sudden, Lu Qi really hoped that this would be an ordinary reading club. He could not think about anything, just listen to Hu Lingyu's stories, and then tell him the stories he likes with his heart.

"...Let's end with my favorite sentence in this book," Hu Lingyu's voice was soothing and clear, "The power of the wild is in the heart of every lycanthropist, not power, but love. She let my body find On the way home, the soul finds its way home.”

Hu Lingyu closed the book.

The quiet and peaceful aftertaste in the book still keeps everyone immersed for a long time.

Until the get out of class bell rang.

Club activities last for one afternoon, following the rhythm of "four classes", and there are also breaks between classes.

The corridor quickly became lively. Students from other classrooms participating in club activities, those who came out to go to the toilet, those who let the wind out, and the exchanges between different clubs, most of them were new club members in the second grade, wondering if "Biejia" would be more interesting.

Hu Lingyu and Lu Qi came back from the toilet, just walked through classroom 202, when they were suddenly stopped by someone from behind: "Lu Qi——"

The two stopped, and before they could turn around, a boy had already come up and grabbed Lu Qi's shoulder enthusiastically: "It's really you!"

The boy is tall and burly, wearing a third-grade grass-green bracelet.

"Wang Tong." Lu Qi also greeted the other party cheerfully.

"I heard that you entered the investigation department? You are still No.1," Wang Tong jokingly elbowed him, "Yes."

"It's okay." Lu Qi was not humble.

"Damn it, you still deserve to be beaten so much when you talk." Wang Tong couldn't stand it.

Hu Lingyu agrees with this point, and thus confirms Wang's "

acquaintance" status.

But whether it was when he first followed Lu Qi, or now that they are almost inseparable, he has never seen this person, could it be a high school classmate?

"Why are you on this floor?" Wang Tong looked back and forth at various club classrooms, as if he felt that there was no match for Lu Qi here, "What did you participate in?"

Lu Qi said: "Reading club."

Wang Tong doubted that he heard it wrong: "What?"

Hu Lingyu finally found a chance to increase his sense of presence, and raised his hand weakly: "Reading club."

Wang Tong heard the sound and looked over, only to find that there was another person beside him.

Looking at each other, Hu Lingyu took the initiative to extend the hand of friendship: "Investigation team, Hu Lingyu."

Just as Wang Tong was about to reach out, Lu Qi grabbed the fox's paw first, and acted as an introducer very naturally: "He is Wang Tong, from the third-grade investigation class."

Wang Tong didn't take it seriously, and nodded with Hu Lingyu as an acquaintance, and his attention was still on Lu Qi's club: "How did you choose the study club? We talked about it last time when we had dinner, you kid either choose free fighting or beast fighting , Li Jin is fighting in Beastization, I am afraid that you will also choose this semester and almost change clubs."

"Why do I have to change clubs as soon as I apply," Lu Qi smiled, but Hu Lingyu could hear a hint of sarcasm in that voice, "I'm too unpopular."

Wang Tong obviously didn't hear it, and he didn't see him patting him on the back: "Don't be fake and modest, who hasn't seen your kid go crazy before, and he was secretly happy when he heard that he was afraid of you."

Hu Lingyu was so confused when he heard it, he was almost dying of curiosity, so he patted Lu Qi on the back, pretending to tease: "I didn't see that, why are you so good?"

The words were actually for Wang Tong.

Classmate Wang was very good, and immediately took it over: "It's not just powerful, as far as the kids in our animal control bureau compound, who has never been beaten by him, I was chased and bitten by a sika deer for the first time that year, and the animalization concept almost collapse."

"You talk too much." Lu Qi half-jokingly and half-seriously pushed him away, "Let's go, let's talk later."

"When will you turn around?" Wang Tong was serious, and kept shouting from behind, "I'll call you for dinner next time—"

Lu Qi waved his hands without looking back.

I don't know if he is supercilious, Hu Lingyu always feels that Lu Qi is indifferent to Wang Tong, even though he looks very cheerful.

"Do you live in the compound of the Animal Control Bureau?" Before returning to 205, Hu Lingyu asked the most concerned person first.The compound of the Animal Control Bureau is naturally for the staff of the Animal Control Bureau and their families to live in, "So both you and Xiao He..."

"No," Lu Qi interrupted lightly, "Both of us have nothing to do with the Animal Control Bureau, and my home is not in the Animal Control Bureau compound."

"Then Wang Tong said just now..."

"I just lived there for a few years, or," Lu Qi paused slightly, smiled, "boarding."

Boarding in... the family area of ​​the Animal Control Bureau?

"you……"

"Don't ask any more."

Hu Lingyu was almost choked: "Why?"

"I'm not happy." Lu Qi shrugged.

Hu Lingyu was at a loss for words.

The sky is big and the earth is big, but students Lu are not happy.

"Ask one more question," the little fox said softly, blinking his eyes, "just one, okay?"

The sika deer frowned for a long time, reluctantly: "Just one."

"That Wang Tong, what family and genus?"

"Asian lion."

"Are you chasing a lion to bite?"

"This is the second question."
