XXXI. A light that never goes out

Because of our good performance in WCG competitions, the Internet café we frequented made a deal with us: we were allowed to use the equipment and servers of the Internet café for free during the team training period, and we had to hang the team logo with their Internet café logo during the competition.

When we encountered such a good thing, we naturally agreed without hesitation. Students don't have much pocket money a month, but now they can save money on Internet access, which also invisibly relieves us of a lot of financial pressure. This way, we can spend more time on CS.

The last class is a self-study class, and according to the convention, there is usually no teacher in this class. Before class, Liu Han proposed to skip class together to go to an Internet café for training, and Ye Hui and I nodded in agreement without thinking about it.

When we arrived at the Internet café, Allen and LARRY were sitting in front of the computer practicing their guns 1v1.

"Huh, aren't you going to class, why do you have time to come?" Allen and LARRY were surprised to see us.

"I skipped class. Liu Han said disapprerovingly while turning on the computer.

"It's still early, why don't we go to the Internet to find a team to play a game!" Lately, school is late every night, so even if we come to the Internet café, we just practice each other's guns. I hadn't played in a few days, and I was tickled all over.

My suggestion was immediately unanimously approved, and I quickly landed in the chat room and found a team.

The race was about to start, and just as we were concentrating on running the map to warm up, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind us: "Li Xiaobei, Liu Han, Ye Hui, is it fun to surf the Internet?"

The five of us turned our heads almost at the same time when we heard the voice, oh my God!

"How did the head teacher know we were here? Could it be that someone told us?" I said secretly in my heart.

The three of us were almost dragged out of the Internet café by the head teacher, and after confiscating the Internet cards, the head teacher nodded at our heads in turn, and said with a serious face: "See for yourself what number it is! The college entrance examination is about to begin! You still don't care so much, you actually have the heart to come to the Internet! Okay, now I don't want to say anything more to you! Give me an honest home to reflect! I will visit your home one by one in two days......

We looked at each other at once, and it seemed that this time we were going to die without a place to bury!

I was nervous for several days, but I didn't wait for the head teacher's visit, and my heart that was hanging in the air gradually began to let go, and it seemed that the head teacher's words that day were just to scare us!

The weekend was fast approaching, and on Sunday morning, I was lying in bed and asleep, when there was a knock on the door, and my heart suddenly hung in my throat, and I hurriedly jumped out of bed and got dressed.

"Xiaobei, your teacher is here!" my mother shouted into my room.

"Ahh

Nervously walking out of the bedroom, I saw Elder Duan and Teacher Li sitting on the sofa in the living room at a glance, and I couldn't help but gasp for such a luxurious lineup of home visits.

"Hello teacher. "I was nervous, but I walked over it.

"Teacher, do you want tea?...... There are bananas here, teacher, you are welcome, eat as you like......" My father and mother were courteously entertaining Elder Duan and the head teacher, how do I look at it, how do I feel that they seem to have become the emperor of my family.

After a polite greeting with my parents, the head teacher cleared his throat, turned sideways and took out a card from his satchel and put it on the coffee table.

“...... The college entrance examination is about to begin, but Li Xiaobei doesn't have the slightest sense of tension and oppression before the exam, and he actually skips class with his fox friends and dog friends to go to the Internet café to play games! With such a state of study, how to meet the upcoming college entrance examination? After all, our teachers have limited energy, and you, as parents, must help the school to supervise the children well...... The head teacher spoke in a full official manner, and Elder Duan, who was sitting next to him, also nodded his head in agreement.

I sat in the corner with my head bowed, helplessly counting the supplies they had consumed during their lectures: "4 bananas, 5 cups of water, you can really eat ......" I said in my heart.

The head teacher almost didn't stop talking at length from beginning to end, and I don't know how long it took, the head teacher was probably tired of talking, so Elder Duan took over the conversation again and chatted with my dad. The visit lasted for an hour, and when it was almost noon, they got up and prepared to leave.

"Teacher, it's almost noon, why don't you stay and eat together. My mother politely said.

"Oh, no, no, we're going to other students' homes. Elder Duan hurriedly waved his hand and declined.

"Then the teacher is good, Li Xiaobei will worry about the teacher more in the future!" Dad said as he sent Elder Duan and the head teacher to the door.

"Goodbye, teacher. I followed, waving reluctantly at their backs.

As the security door closes, the atmosphere in the house is a little scary, as if the end of the world is about to fall.

"Li Xiaobei!" Dad turned around and whispered my name angrily.

Help me......

Since that visit, my parents have been unable to go home to the Internet café, which has kept me from relieving myself for days.

Sitting at my desk in boredom, facing the thick stack of review materials in front of me, I played with the eraser shavings scattered on the books with some idleness. In the dead of night, I woke up in a daze while lying on the table, and I looked at the time again It was half past ten, and the lights in my parents' room were out.

"I'd better go to sleep. I muttered to myself, then got up and walked to the window and closed the curtains.

Before I knew it, not long after I turned off the light and climbed into bed, a rapid phone rang at the bedside.

I rubbed my sleepy eyes, grabbed the microphone casually, and asked impatiently, "Hey, who?"

"Li Xiaobei, what time are you going to bed now! The college entrance examination is coming soon, can't you be a little more conscious?" was the voice of the head teacher, Mr. Li, on the other end of the phone.

The head teacher lives in an 18-story residential building across the street from my house, and her bedroom happens to be facing the window of my room. Condescendingly, my every move was under her surveillance.

I hung up the phone, so I had no choice but to get up and turn on the fluorescent lamp again: "Hmph, if you don't let me turn off the light to sleep, then I'll sleep with the light on! Anyway, if I close the curtains, you won't be able to see!" After turning on the light, I climbed back into bed.

Maybe I was really sleepy, but despite the light, I was quickly brought into a dream by Zhou Gong......
