July 1.

The 2003 junior high school students of Seongnam Middle School returned to the campus as students for the last time.

After being away from the campus for more than a month, and the last batch of sophomores left the school more than ten days ago, only some faculty and staff who needed to stick to their posts during the summer vacation remained, and the whole campus was quiet.

The corridors that had been filled with laughter for five minutes between classes were now covered with heavy dust; The mango tree, which the students often sweep the leaves, is full of leaves at this moment. The cafeteria, which was noisy as soon as the meal arrived, was lonely and silent at this time.

It wasn't until Ning Zhichu and his group returned to school on July 1 that the campus, which had been quiet for more than ten days, felt a little angry.

Ning Zhichu and his friend Jia Junpeng walked together and walked in with a bicycle from the school gate.

If it was possible, Ning Zhichu didn't want to walk with Jia Junpeng.

If you go to his house every day to eat and drink, then forget it, adding a pair of dishes and chopsticks to the meal is normal in the countryside. It's just that Jia Junpeng seems to be full of skill points for chatting with the three aunts and seven aunts.

Ning Zhichu was fortunate enough to see Jia Junpeng's side.

In the village, it began to be rumored that Ning Zhichu's family wanted to personally fund the renovation of the road in the village, and the idle aunts in Chenhuangzhai Village who had nothing to do almost broke the threshold of Ning Zhichu's house, even if Ning Zhichu's house is still a tiled house and does not build a building, even if Ning Zhichu is only 16 years old now, he would rather be only 12 years old, and he can't extinguish the enthusiasm of those aunts who love to be matchmakers.

Then, the most strange thing is that Jia Junpeng, who is the same age as Ning Zhichu, was able to chat very happily with the seven aunts and eight ladies in these houses.

This really surprised Ning Zhichu.

Therefore, those seven aunts and eight ladies got a lot of information about Ning Zhichu from Jia Junpeng's mouth, for example, he was the last in the class in the second semester of junior high school, and then he was in the top ten in the class in the second semester of junior high school; For example, Ning Zhichu once acted bravely, and was also commended by the leaders of the police department and the principal, etc.

Ning Zhichu had the intention to destroy Jia Junpeng, but he still underestimated Jia Junpeng's cheekiness.

"Hey, Ning Zhichu, it's been a long time."

Ning Zhichu had just parked his bicycle, and he was slapped on the shoulder, and before he could see who it was, a familiar aroma came to his face.

There is no need to turn his head, Ning Zhichu also knows that it is Zhang Jing who is standing behind him. When he turned around, he realized that this was exactly what happened.

At this moment, Zhang Jing is wearing a hat printed with a beige pattern, a yellow plaid short T, a pair of 7-minute long white slacks, and a pair of beige sandals, which makes Zhang Jing look even cooler in this summer.

Ning Zhichu thought about it, just like talking about family life, and asked, "Well, Zhang Jing, you haven't seen you for a long time?" Where did you go to play during the holidays? ”

"Nothing."

Zhang Jing took off her hat, then used it as a fan, and shook it in front of her, trying to find a trace of coolness in the hot sun.

"Anyway, after the exam, I went out to play. I went to Yuanjiang Forest Park in Yuanjiang District, Dong'an County Wildlife Park, Tiansheng Palace and Shoushan in Xinning District, etc., and I didn't return to Xinpu County until yesterday. ”

"What about you, Ning Zhichu, have you gone somewhere to play? Or have you been looking at the store? ”

"Cut, Zhang Jing, let me tell you, Ning Zhichu is now a big celebrity in their village."

Before Ning Zhichu could answer Zhang Jing's question, Jia Junpeng, who was standing on the side, felt that he couldn't go on like this and be ignored by the two of them, so he interjected.

As soon as he heard Jia Junpeng say this, Ning Zhichu felt that he was going to suffer.

Sure enough, under Zhang Jing's interested eyes, Jia Junpeng told Zhang Jing all about his experience in the past few days. Then after finishing speaking, Jia Junpeng immediately ran away like a rabbit meeting a leopard, regardless of such a hot weather.

"Tsk."

Zhang Jing circled Ning Zhichu several times like a hunter looking at the prey in his hand, and kept screaming in her mouth.

"Okay, Zhang Jing, let's go back to the class and gather."

Without waiting for Zhang Jing to say anything, Ning Zhichu blocked it first, and then walked towards the class.

Not only the original junior high school class 2, from class 1 to class 6, those classmates and friends who have been separated for almost half a month have a kind of determination to turn the classroom into a vegetable market without turning the ceiling of the classroom down.

Anyway, when Ning Zhichu walked back to his original position, the classmates before and after were all talking. Although some of them had a good conversation, there was a vague estrangement; Although some of them don't say much, the tacit understanding in their eyes is getting stronger and stronger. Some of them are no longer as sweet as before, but they are embarrassed under each other's eyes.

Without waiting for these classmates who hadn't seen each other for half a month, the head teachers of each class returned to the classroom with a few students who had been called over to take the volunteer form and the introduction of Xinyang Middle School.

Xu Youcai is no exception.

He called the squad leader Xu Chen and several squad cadres to the third grade room, and then took back all the materials belonging to the second class and asked them to distribute them.

After everyone got the materials in their hands and sat in their seats, Xu Youcai realized that today might be the last time he would explain the materials to the 56 students who are now sitting in this class.

Xu Youcai shook his head and drove out all the worries in his mind. Then he borrowed the volunteer book from the students in the first row and explained it seriously.

To be honest, if Xu Youcai hadn't been a little more powerful, then with his solid teaching skills, he would have been a good teacher.

After Ning Zhichu and the others were familiar with the rules for filling in the volunteer form, and carefully read the "Introduction to Xinyang City Middle School" published by the Xinyang Municipal Education Bureau, Xu Youcai asked the students below to fill in the middle school they applied for on the volunteer application form.

From the moment the students put pen to paper, their life trajectories may change from two intersecting lines to two parallel lines.

Or go to secondary vocational school, or go to ordinary high school, or go to those excellent high schools, or enter the cruel society, and the high school entrance examination before them has already been decided.

Ning Zhichu did not hesitate to write "Shi Yàn Middle School" on the volunteer form, and then hesitated again and again, and finally filled in Xinpu No. 1 Middle School in the second file, and Chengnan Middle School in the third file.

When Ning Zhichu and the others handed in the volunteer book, and then went downstairs to gather to take pictures, the flower season and rainy season that belonged to them turned the page on the book of their respective lives.

"Okay, stand up, come, laugh one, 1, 2, 3, eggplant!"

"Click!"

As the photographer pressed the shutter in his hand, Ning Zhichu's junior high school time was frozen.

In the photo, Ning Zhichu did not smile so heartlessly like Jia Junpeng, but looked intently into the distance, the distance with light and hope.
