Back to the honeycomb just changed into a set of clothes that I was satisfied with. This is something that the person next to you would not have thought of. "The soul is hidden, but I can see how it is dressed." So, on a cold day, Chang Xia also likes to appear in the basement in a skirt with a coat on the outside. It looks a little thin.

The other "stowaways" have long been wrapped in thick cotton jackets. It was moving like a hill on his back.

The "chief" came out to go to the toilet, and when he met her on the way, he asked her if she was cold. Holding his hands, he stomped his feet as if he was afraid of the cold, and gave kind advice: "During the critical period of the graduate school entrance examination, the warmth measures must be done well." ”

Chang Xia looked left and right to talk about others. I wonder why it's not so cold? Am I stupid! There are two thick woolen socks inside the skirt, and the boots are also plush and plush inside.

She wore a silk scarf over her dark coat and a dark blue MP3 around her neck. Stand by the side and listen obsessively to the "Excerpts": leave the most brilliant part in the life of others. The sad rhythm of the strings poured down like rain, and she was caught in the rain. She stood, took off her MP3, and sighed.

Seeing that she listened infatuately. The "chief" next to her rolled his eyes at her, she was like a little pet dog mixed into the black goat pile. Have doubts about whether she can be admitted?

The winter was particularly cold that year. Hundreds of people were crammed into a basement, and the air was stagnant and circulating, but the warm current was concentrated.

The "glasses" lawyer wears a thick cotton jacket every day, "I can't help it, I put on the quilt too." He said. Chang Xia smiled, and a few days later, when he saw that he had changed his padded jacket, he asked, "A quilt changed today?" "The lawyer didn't react.

At some point, a girl sat across from the "glasses" lawyer, with small red bumps on her face, like a potato with worms.

One day at noon, the "lawyer with glasses" chatted with her in a low voice. "You're going to take the Peking University exam!" Hearing the surprised voice of the "glasses lawyer", Chang Xia's ears suddenly stood up.

In this provincial city far away from Kyoto, it is remarkable to take the "Peking University" examination.

"I don't know how to do it, anyway, I was the first in the class in the English test."

"How many points can you score on Bi Jinxian's test paper?" The "glasses lawyer" asked.

"Except for composition, you can do fifty or sixty points for a seventy-point test paper!"

Chang Xia went to see the "glasses lawyer" and felt that his mouth was crooked with envy like himself. Bi Jinxian's English test paper is a top-level sword score, and they can score more than 30 points at most.

Comrade "Spectacle Lawyer" graduated from junior college at the age of 20, and after obtaining his lawyer's license, he probably never received an English case in several years of handling cases.

Chang Xia is the same, 18-year-old graduated from secondary school nursing school, and the patients are all locals.

The girl stood up, put her bag on her back, and went out to eat. The girl's somewhat ugly face suddenly became mysterious and beautiful in the eyes of the comrades of the "glasses lawyer".

"Actually," the "glasses lawyer" lowered his tone in a frustrated tone: "At first, I didn't want to talk to her. It doesn't matter what you look like; What is intolerable is what she wears; It doesn't matter if you dress a little plainly, after all, you're a student! However, what I really can't tolerate is that she is still wearing a babydoll shirt———— "The glasses lawyer dragged out the babydoll shirt, and Chang Xia smiled as his loyal listener.

"I really can't tolerate cartoons on her clothes. Taste really doesn't work. The spectacled barrister shook his head.

"But," the "glasses" lawyer suddenly turned around, "from tomorrow onwards, I will take her place." ”

"She's my idol, a powerful faction." Mr Hacken Wong gave a thumbs up. It turned out that he was looking for a reference to push him to sit across from him.

Seeing Chang Xia staring at him, he comforted: "You are also my idol, a youth and pure faction. ”

Chang Xia glanced at him. hated in his heart, and secretly gritted his teeth. The Purity will be able to dig up a large vase from behind. Chang Xia thought to himself, when the exam is over, I will definitely return to the word "strength" that was blocked by appearance.

Pity these girls. Looking all over the basement, the smoke is yellow, and the youth is like a leaf rotting on the face.

Pity the boys. The faces of the martyrs were filled with painful expressions, the darkness of the basement made their clothes, and the musty smell between the lattices curdled into their hair. Layers of white dander are under the sticky roots. It's like scattering dead ashes.

The tabletops in the basement are all stripped gray and black. The black elsewhere is jet-shiny, but here the grey black is shabby and dilapidated. The fluorescent tubes lay in the corners of the wall, and the light emitted was poorly jointed, some pale and some like cheap cloth with slippery stitches.

At noon, Chang Xia was about to go back to eat and sleep, but when he looked back, he saw that the head of the "chief" was still on the muddy yellow coat, straight, and Chang Xia felt that it was really like a scarecrow reading a book, never tired.

Outside the ground, Chang Xia caught him and asked, "Why don't you know how to rest?" Aren't you tired? ”

The smile of the "chief" was like that of an old lady: "Think about it, one of your feet has already stepped on the ghost gate, do you still dare to rest?" ”

The "chief" had always liked to send his advice everywhere, and when he encountered this rare opportunity, he hurriedly typed another one: "Alas! You want to sleep a little less, and after sleeping there is a chance. There aren't many opportunities to go to graduate school! Chang Xia was grateful and upset at the same time for his kindness. He only cares about sending his things out, and he doesn't care if he can hold it in other people's arms?

Originally, there was an extra idol "reference" opposite her that urged her and the lawyer to forge ahead. Now, I have received free advice from the chief of the foundation, and the pressure is great.

"And how many chances are you?" Chang Xia suddenly asked suddenly, deliberately cruel.

The smile on his face suddenly shallow in half, and he rolled his eyes in embarrassment, but he still spit it out gently, like squeezing a fish out of a cat's throat: "Fourth." ”

"Ahh Chang Xia's mouth was the same shape as her eyes. She thought he was just a second or third time.

The fourth time? How many four years of human youth are there? Is it to sigh at his failures or marvel at his persistence? His face was as withered as a broken orange stump. There was already a circle of thatched grass over his head, and the rest of the thatch was tangled together. Is there only a point of no return left in life?

"Do you never speak English every time?"

"Yes."

"Damn English." Chang Xia scolded hatefully. Which is the test for postgraduate English, is it clear that it is going to be a test? Knock those people down in a large area, and then fall off the cliff one after another.

Chang Xia suddenly thought, what is the difference between the current group of "stowaways" who take the English test and those Confucian students who take the Bagu Wen test?

Fan Jin is stupid, but once he is raised in high school, he will be infinitely glorious. This secret psychology has flowed down a dark tunnel for thousands of years.

Qian Zhongshu said, "A diploma is like a fig leaf on Eve's body, which can cover people's narrowness and stupidity." ”

Alas, these people like to fight with books and letters in the basement. But the turbulence of the outside society retreats back.

Chang Xia was thinking wildly, and heard the chief hurrying: "No, I have to go in and read." We'll talk about it when we have time. ”

Chang Xia looked at him with hatred and sorrow. Looking back at the basement, I saw through the old dark wooden door, which was even darker, and there seemed to be countless cats crouching on the table.
