cut the waves

After the Challenge Cup National Competition, Yu Yu felt that the swimming pool was much quieter every afternoon.

Song Hao stopped swimming, and began to prepare for the college entrance examination with all his strength, saying that he would come back to see the wonderful performance of his future juniors after he went to college.In the women's group, the twin sisters also decided to focus on their studies in the second year of high school.Mao Kaijie suffered a double blow from the individual competition and the team competition, and quit swimming training without saying a word, probably because he decided to study hard.Except for Yu Yu who was preparing for the national championship, everyone's training time was temporarily changed to one, three, five, two and four self-study, and the end of the sprint period.

Yu Yu's long-distance training continued as usual, and sometimes he felt lonely in the empty swimming pool, even the sound of splashing water.

However, Mao Kaijie found that his life was not easy after giving up swimming training.The news that he performed abnormally in the national team competition spread like wildfire, and it was somewhat exaggerated after being passed down from generation to generation.

At noon that day, the canteen of No. [-] Middle School.

As soon as Mao Kaijie put down the stainless steel dinner plate, someone deliberately bumped his right shoulder.When he turned around, he found that it was a boy from the basketball team: "Oh, sissy, I heard that you finally can't get along in the swimming team?"

Before he finished speaking, several tall boys behind him burst into laughter.

Mao Kaijie lowered his head, gritted his teeth and didn't want to talk to them.His skin is naturally white, the kind that seems to reflect light in the sun, and it turns red when he is a little emotional.Coupled with the fact that he usually speaks in a soft voice, the boys in the No. [-] Middle School more or less squeezed him out.

"Tsk, I told you earlier, if you can't relay, you're holding back, right?"

Mao Kaijie: "..." The white jade-like earlobes began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Another boy sarcastically said: "Don't say it, don't say it, the little girl is going to cry."

The others laughed again.

Xu Yufeng and Mao Kaijie are in the same class, and students who finish class at the same time sit relatively close to each other in the cafeteria.She couldn't help turning her head when she heard this: "It's so strange, none of us in the swimming team blamed Kaijie, and you are quite lenient. You can't make it to the national competition, are you in a hurry?"

"Look, look, I think this guy joins the men's team," the boy pointed to Xu Yufeng, and then nodded Mao Kaijie, "This guy joined the women's team, and his grades may be better than now."

Xu Yu pointed at the boy's nose with his chopsticks, and cursed: "How many years has it been? Are you still putting it here for gender stereotyping?" Have you ever heard the phrase 'If you don't observe masculinity, your dick will be broken'? Cursed? It's you!"

Many girls behind her stared at the troublesome boys and covered their mouths and laughed.Several big boys looked at each other in dismay, cursed in a low voice, "No one wants a man and woman", and left with the dinner plate.

Mao Kaijie's face was swollen like a boiled crab, and he stammered his thanks to Xu Yu.Xu Yufeng waved his hands impatiently, annoyed him, and didn't bother to talk to him.

Swimmers have relatively well-developed upper limbs, and most girls do not wear long hair for the convenience of training.Xu Yufeng's facial features are quite iconic, but her shoulders are actually thicker than many boys in No. [-] Middle School, and her deltoid muscles are particularly developed. When she wears short sleeves in summer, someone will always point and call her a nickname.Although the girls at the table were all clapping and saying "Brother Fen is mighty", Xu Yufeng felt an uncontrollable irritability in his heart.

The dining areas of Class [-] and Class [-] were not far apart. Su Liao and Yu Yu wanted to go to help when they heard the news, but Xu Yuyan quickly sent the basketball team's pickers away, so everyone didn't move.

"Is Momo all right?"

"I don't know. I haven't been swimming for more than two weeks...the group doesn't talk."

"Is his locker still there?"

"Yeah, it wasn't cleaned up."

Surprisingly, that afternoon, Mao Kaijie parachuted into the swimming pool.When Yu Yu came out, he found him squatting on the starting platform, staring at his reflection in the water in a daze.

Seeing that there was no response from the person, Yu Yu stepped forward and shouted again: "Maomao?"

Mao Kaijie pushed back his glasses and showed a shy smile: "Actually, I hate people calling me 'sissy' the most."

"I have fair skin, and I blush easily," he suddenly became short of breath, "but that doesn't mean I can't be a man."

When Mao Kaijie was reviewing recently, he thought over and over again—for example, in this mid-term exam, the Chinese dictation test happened to be a passage that he didn't memorize, and he deviated from the composition when he was in a hurry.After the Chinese test, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was not good at composition, and his mentality collapsed. As a result, the mathematics, which he could perform very well, also failed the test because of this "old problem".

The problem has never been with swimming.

Just like what Su Liao said, he should face his difficulties directly, instead of making excuses to escape!

Mao Kaijie suddenly spread his arms, raised his head and shouted: "Man, face difficulties bravely!"

Yu Yu was taken aback by his sudden loud voice, and was a little worried if something had lowered his head.But before Mao Kaijie finished speaking, Wang Pengpeng yelled "Maomao" excitedly, rushed from the locker room, hugged Mao Kaijie, and then "crashed", the two fell into the swimming pool together, and the water splashed Yu Yu is all over.

Su Liao also just came out of the locker room, imitating the example, grabbed Yu Yu's neck, and the two jumped down together: "Wuhu—"

Yu Yu: "..." What's wrong with these people.

As soon as he emerged from the water and wiped his face, Wang Pengpeng raised his arms and shouted excitedly: "Good news! Good news! Our fourth class is about to be dismantled!"

Everyone: "..."

Others will cry when they know that their class is going to be dismantled. This is really the No.1 dance party celebration.Students in No. [-] Middle School all know that the three classes with the worst average scores in the whole grade are demolished every year, so there have been rumors about those classes, but the official news only came out today.

Su Liao raised his eyebrows: "What? You still seem to be very happy? Lowering the average score is not a small contribution, isn't it Fatty?"

Wang Pengpeng put his arm around Mao Kaijie's neck: "Maomao, we will be classmates from now on, and I'm going to Class Six."

"Ah? The class placement results have come down?"

"No, no," Wang Pengpeng shook his head, relying on his family's donation of a gymnasium to do whatever he wanted, "I'll let my dad tell them that there are many friends in the swimming team of Class [-], so they won't be blinded if they go there. Honey, isn't it?"

Yu Yu wondered: "You will not be unaccompanied when you come to Class Seven."

At this time, Xu Yufeng also came out of the locker room, and looked curiously at the four boys who were huddled together.Wang Pengpeng plucked his butt feathers like a fat peacock making a pose, and cleared his throat: "Class six, Liu Liu Da Shun, it's auspicious, maybe I can go to a good university like you after graduation. "

After finishing speaking, he crossed several buoys and swam towards Xu Yufeng's direction: "Good news! Good news! Our fourth class is about to be dismantled!"

Xu Yu looked down and gave him a cold look: "Oh, I thought Jiangnan Tannery closed down."

After finishing speaking, she jumped into the water, kicked Wang Pengpeng all over the face in freestyle, and walked away.Mr. Wang was still standing by the pool, giggling.

Everyone: "..."

In early June, the National Swimming Marathon Championship was held in Yingshan Lake, a famous scenic spot in T City.The competition is divided into amateur group and professional group. There are more than 20 athletes from more than 200 provinces across the country. Among them, the top 10 men and women in the professional group will have the opportunity to participate in this year's National Games.

Yan Zheng has a strong relationship and got Yu Yu a place in the men's 10km competition regardless of ranking.

Yu Yu has absolutely no burden for this competition.He's coming to his first national with an open-minded, challenger's attitude.The only problem is that the open water for this competition is a freshwater lake - Yu Yu's training is either in the swimming pool or in the sea. The training time is limited, and he has never even practiced in the reservoir.However, the buoyancy, texture, and smell of the freshwater lake were far from the environment he was familiar with.

When Yu Yu was warming up and practicing in the lake, he felt a little uneasy.

The uneasiness of leaving your comfort zone.

The scenery of the track is very good, the lake is like a huge emerald mirror, reflecting the reflections of the surrounding peaks indistinctly.There are no strange peaks and rocks, but gentle curves one after another.The originally scheduled match day was cloudy, but the weather in the mountains changed rapidly. There was heavy fog early in the morning, and then light rain. The water temperature was as cold as well water.Standing on the departure pontoon, Yu Yu couldn't see the steering buoys in the distance. They were hidden in the mist just like the shadows of mountains.

"Open water athletes - you can't just be familiar with the sea. The competition may be held anywhere - river, sea, lake - or in any weather, windy and rainy, scorching sun in the sky." Yan Zheng held an oily black pen, While bolding his competition number on the back of Yu Yu's hand, he pointed out, "The ability to adapt to the environment is also a part of the test of this project, so it is very important to accumulate experience in various waters."

Yan Zheng was halfway through the painting, and suddenly frowned: "What is this on your finger?"

Yu Yu clenched his fist violently, covered the black letters on the side of his index finger with his thumb, and refused to show Yan Zheng: "Drawing blindly."

Before coming out for the competition, Su Liao wrote "champion" on the side of his right index finger with an oil-based pen, but it was a bit faded.

When entering the water, the lake was still covered with clouds and mist, but after 5000 meters, the weather became clear again.The temperature difference in this place is terrifying, and the sun is burning on the back and it is painful.Yu Yu performed quite well in the whole game, but this is a national competition after all. The speed of "Pipa Xing" in the early stage was not enough. Yu Yu failed to break out of the second echelon in the end, and finally ranked No.17. Crossed the finish line.For a young player's first match in the country, Yu Yu felt that the most important thing was to participate, and there was nothing wrong with it.

As a 16-year-old non-professional open water marathon runner, Yu Yu has received full attention from the national team.Although no score was counted in this competition, the provincial team still gave him a bonus according to the ranking reward mechanism.

The day when the provincial team athletes came back from Yingshan Lake was Friday, and Su Liao took a taxi there by stepping on the school bell.In fact, he didn't have any reason. When he got in the taxi, he felt as if he just wanted to see Yu Yu.The little killer whale said on WeChat that he was arrested by a sports rehabilitation teacher for examination and massage.

After going all the way, Su Liao greeted Yan Zheng by the way, and when he passed by the office, he heard Yan Zheng's loud voice, his tone was flattering and flattering, it sounded like he was calling the leader.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for causing trouble to Director Li."

"Yes, yes, that's right, it's the child's own intention. We still need to ask Director Li to withdraw it for our registration file. Hey, I know this is against the rules, but you are a child, and your thoughts change every day. Let's not Get acquainted with him."

"Yes, yes, I won't register this year, but I will definitely do it next year."

"Oh--that's what I said too. It's a pity not to participate in the National Games after reaching the [-]th place. That's right, that's right, he figured it out for himself. There is still opportunity.”

"Guide Li, don't worry, good seedlings in open water are too rare to come by, I will definitely take care of them. I will definitely do it next year."

Su Liao stood outside the office door, silent for a long time.

What Yu Yu told him before was: No. [-] middle school gave him a special student quota, so no matter what, he should swim to the second year of high school, and get another round of medals for the school. This is what he should do as a special student.If you register as a professional athlete, it is not appropriate to take advantage of the school but not be able to participate in the competition.

Su Liao did not expect that Yu Yu applied for professional registration and then withdrew it, and even gave up the opportunity to participate in the National Games this year?

Footsteps came from behind the office door, and it sounded like they were coming towards the door.Su Liao changed his attention again, turned around, and left quietly.Su Liao thought to himself, since Yu Yu didn't take the initiative to confess to him, then he should be completely ignorant.

It seems a little anxious, but also a little secretly excited.

Yu Yu came out of the physiotherapy room, and wondered, "Huh? Why are you here?"

Su Liao showed a flawless smile: "I left some laundry in the locker before, and I came back on Friday to pick it up and wash it together. Come and see you. Congratulations."

Yu Yu didn't suspect it at all, and showed Su Liao his index finger as if offering a treasure. The color of "champion" had almost faded, but the shape of the word could still be seen.He had already wiped off those serial numbers on his body with shower gel, and managed to keep this piece.

The two index fingers hooked together and pulled a "hook".

Next season, let's go!

In mid-to-late June, there will be not only the final exam of the first year of high school, but also the troublesome "information technology exam".Yu Yu feels that the pain of this kind of exam is that existence is meaningless, but you have to pass it. The content is obviously not difficult, but you still have to spend time reviewing.

In Ninggang this season, the cicadas are singing loudly, and the noon sun is particularly vicious.

The information technology exam of No. [-] Middle School was assigned to another school. Yu Yu made an appointment with a few friends from the swimming team to go out for dinner.Mao Kaijie and Su Liao are definitely going to wait for A, and they are probably still upstairs to check and check again, while Yu Yu and Wang Pengpeng think that they have passed the test, and handed in the paper after finishing, squatting in the shadow of the reception room at the school gate and others.

There is a little brother who distributes leaflets outside the school gate. The class he sells is "Python Summer Interest Technology Group for Teenagers". It is full of gimmicks, such as experiencing AI, big data analysis, and everything. The price is touching. The first session costs 2999.Among a group of chicken babies in Ninggang No. [-] Middle School, it is quite popular to learn python now. It is outdated to participate in business competitions for high school students. The fashionable ones are already "using python to model and draw functions to express love to their girlfriends".

Yu Yu, as a scumbag, felt that this kind of thing had nothing to do with him.

It would be nice to be able to revive Excel.

Wang Pengpeng didn't know that he wasted money and had no place to spend it, so he read the leaflets for a long time.

"This Brother Liaohui," Yu Yu told Wang Pengpeng kindly, "He said that there is a foreign website where you can learn, and it seems to be free."

"Oh yes yes," Wang Pengpeng's eyes lit up, "I asked him before, and he said that he can still get a certificate, and maybe apply for foreign universities for extra points." He narrowed his eyes again: "That's the one What's the name of the website? He told me, I forgot."

"I remember. I'll send you a WeChat message. I don't know how to read po or something."

"Okay, you can post it in our group, Mao Mao also said that he wants to learn."

Many years later, Yu Yu never forgot the moment when she died.Especially when he knew what was going on, the message could no longer be undone.

But at that time, after his news was sent out, the swimming group of No. [-] Middle School fell into a long silence.Until Su Liao passed the exam——

Strawberry Dudu Glutinous Rice: Coursera

Little killer whale:?

The author has something to say: I found the editor and changed it back.In fact, I think the title "Zhan Lang" is good for everything except that it hardly moves in the list of favorites (tears

This chapter is too plot-heavy. I used to feel that my writing was too bland and unsatisfactory, so I changed it for a long time.The main reason is to give the supporting role a staged end~ Sorry for not having double updates, I hope I can update daily tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
