Chapter XXVII

After they slept until half past one in the afternoon, and after they all went to class, Chen Zui slept alone until three o'clock, and began to suffer more uncomfortably than in the morning. In the afternoon, the scorching sun was in the sky, his wounds could not be exposed to the strong sunlight, he could not even get out of the door of the dormitory, he did not have so many things to think about at the moment, and he suffered in loneliness until dinner time.

No one knows Chen Zui better than Duan Shaoling, even his father may not understand Chen Zui's mind. Duan Shaoling knew that for Chen Zui, it was much more painful to let him stay in the dormitory all day and not even be able to bask in the sun than to let him train at the training ground all day.

As soon as night fell, Duan Shaoling took him downstairs to the lawn to watch the stars. At this time, there are no stars in the sky, and the starry sky has an extra layer of hazy camouflage. After half an hour, the camouflage dissipated, and the stars revealed their shy shadows, gradually embellishing the entire sky.

Such a beautiful starry sky, without the echo of fireflies, is not a fly in the ointment. Duan Shaoling found a bottle on the ground again, Chen Zui wanted to help him, Duan Shaoling resolutely refused to let him do it, Chen Zui looked at him from the side, after so many years, Duan Shaoling's ability to catch fireflies was no worse than him.

In less than ten minutes, two more girls came across the street. Li Chengjing and Leng Chuxian came out to accompany them, and they knew that they would come out every night in the past few days.

"Chu Xian, let's catch it too."

Leng Chuxian has a docile temperament, and he is also cautious about treating fireflies, for fear of hurting them, so he is half a beat slower. Li Chengjing is just the opposite, her eyes are fast, but her movements are too big, making the grass sway, startling the fireflies to fly away one step earlier, no matter how fast her speed is, it is still faster than the fireflies.

Catching fireflies is something that Chen Zui has played since he was a child, he can't move his hands, and his skills are already clear in his chest. Seeing that they couldn't catch the essentials, he pointed out their mistakes, but fortunately, the two girls were still smart. After catching it for a while, I was lucky, and I was already able to catch one out of five times.

Chen Zui praised them, "With your qualifications, if you practice for another half a month, you can catch almost twenty or thirty fish in half an hour." ”

The three of them lasted for twenty minutes, and it was a whole bottle of brilliant fluorescent light like stars, more than half of which was caught by Duan Shaoling. Last time they were just spectators, but now a small part of them are the fruits of their own labor, and it is even more interesting to watch.

Duan Shaoling said: "Now that there are three of us, plus this bottle of fireflies to accompany you, you won't be bored anymore, right?" ”

Chen Zui smiled bitterly: "What's the use of that, you can accompany me at most during dinner and evening, and at other times, I stay alone in the dormitory, and I can't go out to bask in the sun, I'm just bored to the sky." ”

Leng Chuxian was originally watching the fireflies with great interest, but when he heard Chen Zui say this, his expression suddenly became gloomy with a layer of guilt.

Seeing this, Duan Shaoling said: "You are a good person, but your temperament can't calm down, this is a good opportunity for you to hone your patience, you should feel that it is a blessing in disguise." ”

Chen Zui also realized that he had said the wrong thing, he just wanted to complain, but he was afraid that the speaker had no intention and the listener had a heart, so he immediately diverted the topic, "Chengjing, Chu Xian, have you thought of any suspicious characters?" ”

Li Chengjing roughly repeated Leng Chuxian's words, "According to Chu Xian, the scope is still in the upper echelons of the school, but the scope is still too large, and the principal will not believe our words, even if Chu Xian goes, it is just a startling snake, unless you can get into them to investigate, otherwise this matter is really difficult to understand." ”

Leng Chuxian said: "For my business, you have all been tired in the past two days, so if you really don't have a clue, let's stop here first." The principal has already said that he will not let me go out on missions in the future, and it is always safe to be in the school, even if I go out of the school gate, and you will accompany me, and I will not have a chance to take advantage of those people. ”

They were afraid that if they continued to talk about it, it would only increase Leng Chuxian's self-blame, so they only talked about Fengyue at the moment and didn't talk about it anymore...... Chen Zui didn't dare to complain about how boring she was, Leng Chuxian knew that she was afraid that she would be too distracted. Chen Zui suffered this crime for himself, what can he do to make up for him? At least don't make him so boring every day.

Suddenly thinking that he could go to the library often, he asked, "Chen Zui, what books do you like to read?" I'll help you borrow it from the library tomorrow to pass the time. ”

Chen drunk reading has always been in the form of watching flowers, but now in addition to reading in the dormitory, it seems that he really can't think of a second thing to do, if he is bored in the dormitory and thinks about his mind, I'm afraid he can make up a novel, he may think of it, and he definitely doesn't have the patience to write it down.

Chen Zui was still thinking about what books to read, Duan Shaoling made the decision for him first, "Chu Xian, you go to the library tomorrow to see if you can find one or two military books, so that Chen Zui can take the opportunity to learn the art of war." ”

"Yes." Leng Chuxian agreed happily.

They all decided for him, and Chen Zui had nothing to say.

When it was time for lunch on the second day, Leng Chuxian really brought two books to the canteen for him, namely "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Thirty-six Strategies". Duan Shaoling painstakingly asked Chen Zui to read these two books in the past few days, which would definitely be useful to him in the future. Chen Zui just doesn't want to, what choice does he have.

Since the afternoon, he has been reading books in the dormitory to recuperate, and the things he would never do on weekdays have now become his only pastime, and it is at least better to think about it than to think about it. In the evening, the three of them were on time, and one of them did not land to accompany him to the lawn to relieve his boredom.

After a few days like this, not only did Chen's injury heal quickly, but after a few nights of guidance, the level of the two girls catching fireflies has also improved significantly, and the speed of the body is not very fast, but the hit rate is not bad.

On Saturday morning, Chen went to the infirmary for a final check-up.

Nurse Bai was the nurse who helped her change the dressing, and when she came to change the dressing for the third time, she told Chen Zui her surname. Nurse Bai told him that his injuries were basically healed and that he would be able to move freely from tomorrow.

In fact, there is no need for Nurse Bai to say that when the wound is not healed, he must be careful even when he sleeps, and he must not flip too often to avoid pressing the wound. Since the day before yesterday, Chen Zui noticed that the pain in the wound had decreased sharply, and sometimes a slightly larger movement would no longer cause pain in the shoulder, and he knew that his wound was already healed.

At that time, he wanted to let himself go, but the three of them said that they would force him to rest for two more days, and he must wait until the wound was completely recovered, anyway, the school had already granted him a week's leave, and he didn't have to go to class this week. Helpless, Chen Zui couldn't resist the three of them, so he still had to do as he was told.

After a few days of miserable life, Chen Zui at this time was like a beast about to be released from prison, every muscle in his body was about to come out, and when he walked out of the infirmary, he was thinking about discussing with Duan Shaoling where to go tomorrow at lunchtime, so as to make up for his prisoner-like week.

As soon as twelve o'clock arrived, Chen Zui went to the cafeteria to wait for Duan Shaoling, and after a while, he saw them walking in together. After eating, as soon as he sat down, Chen Zui said excitedly: "Shaoling, Nurse Bai said that my injuries are all healed, think about where we are going to have a good time tomorrow, otherwise we will suffer this week's sin in vain." ”

Duan Shaoling was very happy to see that his injuries had healed, and said with a smile: "Okay, there is still an afternoon to think slowly, I will leave it to you wherever you want to go tomorrow." ”

Chen Zui sighed lightly, "It's a pity that it's only one day, if only one more day would be good, and there is no need to rush back to school at night." ”

"Since you don't know where to go tomorrow, why don't you all come to my house." Zou Baoyi invited them very warmly.

"Hey, Young Master Zou is finally willing to take us to pay homage to your family's big mansion?" Lu Baiting didn't know whether to look forward to it or ridicule.

Liao Zhongying added fuel and vinegar and said: "Dare to ask Young Master Zou, is your house a new-style Western house, or a classical Chinese family mansion?" ”

"Is the overall style Western chic, or is it carved and jade?" Shen Hong also came to join in the fun.

"Don't make a fuss, tomorrow is my sister's birthday, my dad is going to hold a simple birthday party for her, I called him today and told him that I was going to take my classmates home to have a good time."

One after the other, they couldn't wait: "I can finally meet your sister, does your sister look good?" What is the personality like? Is it a small jasper, or lively and cheerful, in short, it won't have the same virtue as you, right? ”

"You'll find out tomorrow." That's what Zou Baoyi replied the last time they asked about the place, and now he still only has this one sentence.

"It's this sentence again, how good is your sister, or is there something unspeakable, and you don't even want to mention it?"

Zou Baoyi smiled but did not speak.

Seeing that he didn't want to mention it, Lu Baiting hurriedly diverted the topic, "Then your sister will take her classmates back, right?" ”

"It's because my sister's classmates are all girls, so I said I want to take you with me, otherwise there will be no men in the family except for me and my dad, and a few subordinates."

Liao Zhongying clapped his hands and said, "Great, are you going early tomorrow morning?" ”

"Tomorrow afternoon, Mansion 62 Phoenix Avenue."

"Chen Zui, Shaoling, you all have to come, Cheng Jing and Chu Xian, I will invite you yourself in the afternoon."

Chen was drunk and overjoyed and agreed. If nothing else, there is such a big excitement as soon as the injury is healed, and God finally treats him well.

In the afternoon, when they all went to class, Chen Zui stood in the corridor and basked in the sun for a while. The afternoon sun is the most dazzling time, but Chen Zui has not been in the sun for five days, and he wants to try this long-lost feeling, but he feels quite warm in the first half hour. Half an hour later, I started to feel hot, so I went back to my dorm.

In helpless loneliness, Chen Zui forced himself to read patiently in the room for the first time since he was ten years old. Anyway, after enduring so many days, it was not bad for this afternoon, Chen Zui used this last afternoon to finish reading all the two books, and he could hand them over to Leng Chuxian and return them to the school at noon the day after tomorrow.

Fate is so infuriating, when you are looking forward to something, it just doesn't let you get what you want, and it's like biting your tongue with your own teeth and you are obviously angry, but there is nowhere to vent.

Because when it was time for dinner, everyone told Chen Zui that they might not be able to go to Zou's house tomorrow.

"Is it canceled tomorrow?" asked Chen Zui, surprised.

"No cancellations, just we can't go."

"Why?"

"Because I have to pay off my debts, I owe them to the school."

During the afternoon training, Instructor Liu told Duan Shaoling and Li Chengjing that the three of them would wait for him at the training ground at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

Zou Baoyi said regretfully: "No one would have thought that the school would pick the only rest day of the week to settle this account, it seems that I can only invite you next time." ”

Chen Zui said self-deprecatingly: "I still have to thank the school, at least not for letting me think about it all day behind closed doors in the dormitory." ”
