"What you are talking about mixing together, is it trafficking @ drugs?" Zongheng asked with a frown. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's not! No! Hannah hurriedly explained, "It's just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just...... It's just ......," Hannah said in a slurred voice.

"Could it be...... Are you on drugs? Zongheng's brows were wrinkled into a Sichuan shape, and his gaze was condensed like a needle, constantly scanning Hannah's whole body.

Zongheng remembered the books he had read about the Opium War. The book has a very clear account of people who are addicted to opium. These people often have symptoms such as restlessness, tears, sweating, runny nose, irritability, trembling, chills, shivering, anorexia, constipation, diarrhea, body curls, cramps, etc. Only regular opium smoking can alleviate it. He didn't know much about other drugs, but he thought the symptoms should be similar. But he had been with Hannah for so long, and he had never seen her have these problems.

Hannah was furious, and she whispered, "I'll ...... I took a ...... for a while in high school. Cannabis ......"

"Really...... Cannabis ......" was a deep voice.

Coincidentally, Zongheng also knows something about marijuana. Although it is uncertain whether marijuana is physiologically dependent, and it is certain that its physiological side effects on people are the lowest among traditional or even known drugs, and it is relatively easy to quit, there has long been a controversy over whether to include it in drugs, but many addicts often start from smoking marijuana, and gradually go further and further in the world of drugs @ products, and slowly begin to smoke hard drugs such as K powder, ecstasy, and heroin.

Hannah was taken aback by the deep tone of her voice, her eyes were red, and she explained with tears: "I really only smoked for a while in high school out of curiosity. At that time, I had a good relationship with Abigail, and she offered me to smoke. After we fell out, we never touched those things again. It's true, trust me! ”

Zongheng was slightly relieved when he heard this. He said, "Tell me exactly what happened to you and Abigail." ”

Hannah dared to hide it, and hurriedly poured beans into a bamboo tube and told Zongheng all about this past.

Hannah and Abigail met in their sophomore year of high school.

At that time, Hannah was just one of the many ugly ducklings at Midwood High School, and there was nothing attractive at all except for his outstanding academic performance. In American high schools, students like this who have nothing to do except study are often regarded as "nerds", and thus are discriminated against by other students, and even bullied on campus.

Abigail is completely different from Hannah, as the leader of the cheerleading team, she is not only a popular figure on campus, but also an object that students like Hannah are extremely envious of and desperately want to emulate. Of course, such imitation often leads to ridicule and even bullying, and basically nothing good will come of it.

When Zongheng heard this, he thought it was strange. He couldn't help but ask, "Why is this happening?" Doesn't it mean that everything is inferior, but only reading is high? Why are students with good academic grades being bullied in high schools in the United States? Don't teachers like students who are good at reading? ”

Hannah smiled bitterly: "This is probably the difference between Chinese and American cultures, or the difference in value orientation!" In China, for thousands of years, people have been divided into four categories: scholars, farmers, and industrialists, and scholars have the highest status. Only by studying well can you become an official, and only by studying well can you have a way out, not to mention hundreds of years ago, even now, it is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in China. But the United States is different, the United States emphasizes equality for everyone, no matter what profession you do, everyone is equal in personality. The most important thing is that in terms of the university admission system, the United States does not look at the college entrance examination results as much as China. In addition to ACT and SAT scores, colleges look at how well applicants perform in other areas when accepting applications. For example, the performance of past social activities, sports competition results, etc. Even having a good physical fitness will give you extra points when applying to college. Therefore, many times, those high school sports stars are more likely to get the favor of good colleges than the average applicant. This gives students who are not good at reading, but have skills in other areas, have a psychological advantage in the face of students like me who can't do anything but study. In addition, they usually show off on the field and have more fans, so they naturally have a greater advantage if they want to bully people. ”

Zongheng has never been to school in his life, so he doesn't know much about it, so he just nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "Keep talking." ”

Hannah goes on to talk about her feud with Abigail.

When they entered their sophomore year of high school, Hannah and Abigail learned about each other's existence because they took the same classes and often took classes in the same classroom. I don't know why, Abigail suddenly became interested in Hannah, and no longer treated Hannah like she always sneered at the "nerds" in the school and even secretly bullied Hannah in the first grade, but was friendly to Hannah, and introduced Hannah to join the circle of girls in Midwood High School centered on her.

Hannah, of course, was flattered and pleasantly surprised to befriend Abigail.

Under Abigail's guidance, Hannah gradually learned to put on makeup, learned to match clothes, and changed from an ugly duckling to a white swan. Later, inspired by the so-called friendship, he learned to smoke, drink heavily, and even smoke marijuana......

"Including hooking up with little boys?" Zongheng asked again.

Hannah's face flushed, and she muttered embarrassedly, "That's just...... Just a joke......"

"Jokes?"

"At that time, Abigail and I were already in the twelfth grade. At the beginning of the school year, another group of freshmen was promoted to the tenth grade, and one of them was growing very ...... Very handsome...... I made a bet with Abigail...... Bet on who will be the first to hook up with that little boy......"

"Joke...... Are you and I joking? Zongheng said thoughtfully.

"Nope! No joke! Hannah was anxious and hurriedly waved her hands to explain, "I'm serious! You have to trust me! ”

Seeing that her appearance did not seem to be fake, Zongheng nodded lightly to show that he would let go of the problem for the time being. He instead asked, "Then how did you and Abigail fall out?" Looking at her appearance, she has been very resentful of you for so many years! ”

At the mention of this question, Hannah was also full of resentment. "I fell out with her when I was halfway through the twelfth grade," she said. At that time, we were about to graduate from high school, and everyone was preparing to apply to college. Although Abigail is the captain of the cheerleading team, her grades are very poor, and if I hadn't secretly helped her in many classes during the exam, she would have had difficulty even passing. If she only applied to a slightly worse college, with her qualifications as a cheerleader in those years, it was very promising. But she was ambitious and wanted to apply to Midwood College. You must know that Midwood College is one of the Ivy League schools, and with her grades, it would not have been possible without the personal recommendation of a well-known professor. ”

Isn't Hannah's father, James, a well-known professor? He asked, "She came to ask you for help?" ”

Hannah nodded and said, "Yes." She asked me to find my father and begged him to write a letter of recommendation for her. ”

And so it was. Zongheng thought to himself. He asked, "You didn't help her?" ”

Lydia shook her head, nodded again, and said, "I agreed, and I did help her get my father's letter of recommendation." But just as I was sending her the letter of recommendation, I overheard her conversation with the others......"

"What did she say?"

Hannah gritted her teeth and said, "She was with the first few Bichi who were with her. They thought I was going to arrive a little later, and they were talking about me and laughing at me. It turned out that Abigail's purpose in approaching me from the beginning was for that letter of recommendation! She has been planning carefully for nearly two years, and finally she is about to succeed. So she couldn't hold back anymore and wanted to show off in front of her group of real friends. It's a good thing she shows off like this, otherwise, I really don't know that I was a lonely and lonely fool in her heart! They made up all kinds of bad things about me on their own, but they didn't know that they were all heard in my ears! ”

"And after that? You must have done something, right? ”

"That's right! I waited until they were all done before I walked in. That Bichi thought I had just arrived, and pretended to be nice to me to greet me. When I took out the letter of recommendation, you didn't see her face, it was called an ecstatic, one hugged me and jumped and jumped, saying that I was a good sister to her for life. Phew! I still want to throw up when I think about it. Haha, that Bichi never thought that after she thanked me, I took out a lighter and burned the letter to ashes. If you see her face at that time, you will definitely feel very happy! It's like seeing the end of the world. Ha ha! ”

Zongheng didn't comment, just asked, "That's it?" ”

The hatred on Hannah's face was even stronger. She shook her head and said, "If it's just like this, how can I hate her until now?" ”

After a pause, she continued, "I sprinkled the ashes of the letter of recommendation in her face and told her that I had heard what they had just said. If she had apologized at the time, maybe I would have changed my mind. But she threatened me! She took out photos taken while I was not ready for more than a year, including photos of me being drunk, smoking marijuana, kissing boys, and even taking a shower and changing clothes. She threatened me to put those pictures all over Midwood if I didn't ask her for a new letter of recommendation, which would not only ruin my reputation, but also disgrace my parents. She even called me a bastard! That Bichi, I really didn't expect her to be so scheming, and she made preparations early! ”
