006, high prom

The popularity of Kraft has gradually diminished over time, but the effects have not completely disappeared.

For example......

"All-New York High School Joint Prom?"

Kraft frowned and asked suspiciously, "What kind of shit is this?" ”

The black kid who brought the news, that is, Michael, who had discussed aesthetics with Liao Fat on the school bus before, shook his head and put his dirty pigtails on his head, and explained to the classmates around him at a very fast speed.

It turns out that the so-called "All New York High School Joint Exchange Ball" has been held for many sessions, but although it is nominally "all New York", there are dozens of middle schools in New York, and the ones that can really participate in it are all private middle schools, such as Fantass Public High School, which is not well-known, and most of the personnel are secondary schools of other ethnic groups, are not eligible to participate in it at all. This year's prom didn't have their share at all.

However, even so, the number of places at Ventas Public High School is extremely limited, and the school's top management is now asking around for details of previous balls to decide who will participate this time.

But in any case, as the main factor in being able to get an invitation, Kraft must be indispensable.

"Can I not go?"

Kraft pouted, he wasn't the usual party creature in America, and he had no interest in proms or anything.

Isn't it fragrant? Why waste your time on something as boring as dancing?

"Impossible, Kraft, others can make excuses to excuse themselves, but you must not be less, you must know that you are the main reason why our school can receive invitations, and the school will not let you be absent from anything."

Michael shook his head and replied that Kraft understood this too, and he just complained casually.

Although Kraft was reluctant, when the principal of Ventas Middle School came up to him and spoke earnestly about his orders, he had to pinch his nose and take on the task of taking the other two students to the bullshit "All New York High School Ball" as the school leader.

That's right, although Ventas Middle School received an invitation, there were only three places, and one of them was locked in Kraft and could not be replaced.

It was soon the day of the ball, and Kraft changed into a very awkward little suit, and used hair wax to comb his hair that had been messy all year round into the appearance of an adult.

Martin Lee stood in front of Kraft, straightened his collar, and then put his hands on his shoulders, and looked at Kraft's style with satisfaction: "Yes, a handsome young man." ”

He then sent Kraft out the door and handed it to the other two students who were waiting outside.

"Kraft is going to trouble you, he's younger, you take care of him a little more."

"Don't worry, Mr. Li."

Francisco is the eldest of the three, a twelveth-grade Latino, and the president of the student council at Ventas Middle School, who is good at socializing, Kraft is only the nominal leader of the team, but in fact the school has given Francisco the main communication tasks, and the principal has also explained these things to Kraft, so he actually just needs to go over and show up, and then eat and drink.

There is also a place for an Asian American student in the tenth grade, who is not a school celebrity, and is very ordinary in all aspects, and the reason why he can be selected is simply because his father is a school director, and he is a relatively heavy school director.

"Hello, I'm Amy, please advise."

The senior sister bowed ninety degrees and introduced herself.

"Senpai is Japanese?"

Seeing Amy's movements, Kraft subconsciously communicated with her in Japanese.

"Hey! My mother is Japanese, and Li Jun speaks Japanese so well! ”

Amy-senpai covered her mouth and replied in surprise in Japanese with a strange accent.

"Uh...... Let's talk in English......"

Kraft sweated for a moment, this girl's plastic Japanese was not as good as her own pronunciation standard, and it sounded very awkward.

"Kraft is amazing, not only did he invent so many interesting things, but he even made the Japanese language so good!"

Francisco, who was good at dancing with long sleeves, seized the opportunity to praise him.

"Hehe, it's okay."

Kraft, who had mastered many Chinese languages because of his dreams and had not made any effort for this, raised his hand a little ashamedly, habitually wanted to scratch his head, and only after touching the hard hair did he remember that he had done a hairstyle today, and hung down his arm in a sneering manner.

Together, the three of them got into a car that the school had prepared for them, and drove to the venue of the prom, the party-only campus of a private high school with profligate fees...... Listen to the prefix of this campus, and you can understand why the tuition fees of this secondary school are so high.

A rather pleasant conversation took the boring time out of the journey between the three of Kraft.

"Really...... Exaggerated ......"

After arriving at his destination, Kraft smacked his lips as he looked at the so-called party-only campus in front of him, all kinds of envy and jealousy.

Since it is a ball, there is naturally a ballroom, not the kind of dance hall that jumps, but the kind of banquet hall used by the upper class that Kraft only sees in film and television dramas, in addition, the large green space outside the ballroom is equipped with a swimming pool with a jumping platform and a waterline, and there is even a horse farm in the back......

Kraft glanced at the student who was introducing him to the place in charge, the arrogance and contempt in his eyes were not concealed at all, and the tone of "you have not seen the world" when introducing him made the three Krafts very unhappy, and even Francisco, who had always been smiling and welcoming, stretched his face.

In fact, in the past, the exchange ball would not use such an exaggerated venue, this ball is simply an activity between a group of descendants of the so-called superior people to expand their contacts with each other, but whenever there are "pariahs" like Kraft and them who want to become new members, they will use similar means to give the new members a dismount, if they can make them happy, then it doesn't matter if they add an interesting follower, if they don't think it's interesting, they won't send an invitation next time.

In fact, the headmaster of Ventas also vaguely mentioned a little bit to Kraft about this, but Kraft didn't pay much attention to it at that time, because the headmaster said that "you may be a little unaccustomed to participating for the first time, and you may be ostracized by some people."

Kraft thought that the so-called exclusion was just to ignore them and not talk to them, after all, it was "high society", and it should be a bit of grace.

But I didn't expect this group of guys to be no different from those street gangsters.

Kraft lowered his eyes silently, he didn't want to come here in the first place, since they were not welcome here, then he naturally had no interest in maintaining any superficial peace, anyway, the headmaster didn't say that he had to join them, only said that he would come and see the world.

It was an eye-opener indeed.

The student in charge of the introduction wanted to take them inside to continue to "see the world", but Kraft was not that interested in continuing to listen to his yin and yang anger, he turned around and left the group, walking in the direction of the banquet hall.

Even if you have to leave, you have to fill your stomach before leaving...... Kraft was a thrifty boy.

Long before Kraft and the others arrived, the people from the other schools had already arrived, after all, bullying newcomers was a rare activity for their group, so they all came early to watch the play, and at this time, when Kraft broke away from the team and walked towards the banquet hall, there was a commotion.

They are happy to see the "rebellion" of the newcomers, echo worms are all too common in their daily lives, and only bullying a dignified hard bone like Kraft will make them feel more fulfilled.

In the banquet hall, the leaders of several small groups exchanged glances, and after a silent exchange, one of the leaders and several of his followers stepped out of the crowd and walked towards Kraft.

"You're Kraft, aren't you?"

The man in the lead raised his head, imitating his father's appearance when he was talking to people at the banquet, and introduced himself to Kraft in a seemingly reserved manner.

"My name is Slade, Slade Hammer, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

Kraft took a sip of the juice and helped his throat swallow the stuffed snack, pouting, "You're happy too soon!" ”

Then, without waiting for the stunned Slade to come back to his senses, Kraft continued to sarcastically: "Your performance is not even as good as the third-rate actor in the garbage time on TV, and no amount of elegance can hide your inferior nouveau riche temperament." ”

Of course, Kraft can't see what nouveau riche temperament is, but in his opinion, this group of people is a big dog anyway, and it is right to scold the nouveau riche, but he didn't expect him to scold on point.

Slade Hammer's father is the president of Hammer Industries, Hammer Industries, as a newly emerging consortium in recent years, is indeed an upstart in the eyes of those old consortiums, otherwise Slade would not have come out to trouble Kraft, like the descendants of those old chaebols are sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai at this time, watching the play safely from a distance.

Slade's face twitched, and he struggled to maintain the smile on his face, gritting his teeth and saying, "Jealousy is the original sin, Kraft-san, I can understand the uneasy feeling of ordinary people like you when they see the exquisite life of high society, but there is no need, there is really no need to resist so much, I just came to make friends with you, and it has nothing to do with whether your family is rich or not." ”

Speaking of the back, Slade gradually regained his initial sense of superiority, and pointed at Kraft in a downward posture.

However, hearing Slade's words, Kraft laughed out loud: "Sure enough, it's an upstart...... Although the news report has been suppressed, the name Martin Lee should not be unknown in your circle, right? ”

After Martin Lee came forward to help him get the relevant procedures for the lock, Kraft also went to learn about his adoptive father's economic strength, and then found out that nearly eighty percent of the industries in New York's Chinatown are related to Martin, and more than half of the industries are owned by Martin, so Martin Lee has a place even in the rich New York financial circle, and this Slade actually doesn't know the situation of his family, obviously the nouveau riche he said before should be crooked.

Slade's face changed dramatically when he heard this, although there was not much overlap between Hammer Industries and Martin Lee's industry, he had heard of this name.

Got caught!

Slade, who had long been accustomed to intrigue, quickly reacted, he turned his head to look at the guys who had encouraged him to come out before, only to see that they were getting together at this time, talking in a low voice, after noticing Slade's gaze, Qi Qi showed a mocking smile at him, and the others were also whispering laughing at his just action.

Unable to stay any longer, Slade whispered an apology to Kraft with a dark face, and then left with his followers in embarrassment.

"It looks like someone used a gun...... Idiot one. ”

Kraft pursed his lips and continued to taste the food on the table, not to mention the attitude of the bastards, the food prepared was delicious, and it could not be wasted.
