Chapter 25: The Daily Life of a Prosperous Student (2)
The boys and girls in Shengshi Employee Training School, these students as young as eight or nine years old, and as old as thirty years old, have almost no chance to meet in reality, let alone fall in love. The boys' department is all 'monks', and the girls' department is all 'nuns', living a life of pure heart and few desires.
According to the rules of the group, the mixed confrontation is grouped in a group, and all students with similar strength are formed. Unless someone is growing by leaps and bounds, it is most likely to be made up with a girl who knows each other.
Therefore, hybrid confrontation is a good opportunity to get in touch with classmates of the opposite sex and establish a more stable relationship.
At lunch, Paul and a few of his classmates were having a lively discussion about the girls who might be in the same group as him.
"I hope to be in a group with Susan, who has a sweet smile that is pleasing to the eye. I dare say, there's no sweeter honey than her. Paul looked intoxicated.
Ah Guess doesn't understand, what is beautiful about those little girls, they have to have no figure, they have no temperament, they are naΓ―ve, and they need to be taken care of.
Achai disdained to associate with those little girls because he fell in love with a mature, elegant, and seductive woman. She is as kind as a mother, as amiable as a big sister next door, as a queen as a shiver, and as intoxicating as a fine wine.
Although he rarely had the opportunity to see her, he deeply engraved her smile, words and deeds every time he saw her. When you're tired, when you can't sleep, take it out and play it back slowly. He wasn't thinking about her falling asleep, he was watching her fall asleep. He was so infatuated with her, and he could devote himself to her and remember it clearly.
He knew that if he could use his energy for her in his studies, in training, and in meditation, he might have broken through a long time ago, and maybe he would have been able to work beside her.
But he just couldn't.
He also knew that his feelings for her would never be accepted by her.
Irrepressibly, his mind turned to the memories of her and he was intoxicated.
Hey, someone called him, and then a hand shook in front of his eyes.
"Who are you thinking?"
A classmate asked.
"When he talks about female classmates, he's like this! I don't know what he's drunk on, so he doesn't eat. Another classmate said.
The classmate who just asked the question said: "This is called tea not thinking, not wanting to eat." β
Several classmates laughed and stood up one after another: "You think slowly, let's go back to the room first!" β
He looked at the half plate of food, saw that Paul also got up, and hurriedly called Paul, Paul, wait for me!
Paul looked embarrassed, hesitated, and said to him: "I'm sorry, I still have to go to the bathroom, I can't wait for you, you hurry up Ah Chai." β
Achai struggled to stuff the food into his mouth, and then kept begging the elephant god for his good luck.
His begging didn't have any effect.
When he returned to the dormitory, the instructor was already standing at the door waiting for him: "Guess, you're late again."
He knew that his lunch break was gone. He couldn't help but hate his poor self-control.
He and the instructor went to the small room at the end of the corridor, and then he was pale, but he walked in consciously.
The small room is small, only four square meters, there are no windows, and the walls and floors have a soft protective layer. This is a punishment room designed to allow students with weak tolerance to be punished, which can protect students from injury and isolate the sound from affecting others.
As soon as he entered, the instructor began to count down. He sat still, waiting for the pain to strike.
The instructor countdown is over.
Suddenly, he had a sharp pain in his chest and abdomen, and he couldn't help but scream. The pain lasted for several seconds, and then, all five fingers of his right hand were in severe pain, or only two or three fingers were in severe pain, but he couldn't tell the difference. It hurts, it hurts, ten fingers are connected to the heart, he can't help but shake his wrist desperately, as if he wants to throw his fingers out along with his palm, without suffering from this kind of torture.
The pain stopped, and Achai had a moment of rest, but fear returned. After a while, there will be a 10 to 30 second rest. But it was also the most frightening and nervous time, because he didn't know when the pain would start and what the next pain would be.
He waited trembling all over.
Then, the pain came again, and he couldn't help but cry out again.
The instructor stood outside and watched his poor performance, patiently teaching him: don't fight the pain, accept it. Not to endure, but to accept...... Don't be nervous, calm down...... Treat pain as a part of you and accept it.
β¦β¦ You have to give up paying attention to the pain, don't let it stay in your mind, don't let it exist, don't react to it.
β¦β¦ Strip it away, and you can calmly accept the pain, which is the ultimate meaning of this seemingly inhumane punishment set up by Principal Wang.
Achai howled, but in his ears, the instructor's voice was still clearly heard. Listening to the instructor's teachings, he also knew that it should be like this, but he couldn't do it.
The sharp pain in his feet made him unable to stand and lay on the ground. Then, the incessant pain made him roll over.
Twenty minutes finally passed, and Achai was lying on the ground, covered in sweat, motionless, like a dead dog.
However, soon the sweat only hung on his face and neck, and the sweat on his body had been absorbed and volatilized by the training uniform, and the floor had also been absorbed by the floor.
After letting him lie on the floor for ten minutes, the instructor woke him up and told him to go back to his room to clean up and then go to class.
Achai got up from the ground with difficulty, and moved slightly, and his whole body was full of pain like pins and needles. He knew that it wasn't really painful, it was just an overreaction of the nervous system that couldn't be eliminated. I could only endure it and return to the dormitory, wash my face, and staggered towards the classroom.
When I arrived at the classroom, I sat upright, closed my eyes, and entered the confrontation training room. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a huge wall of buttons in front of him in the virtual space.
As soon as he saw that it was the calculation button item in the timing confrontation, Achai sighed in his heart, what bad luck! It's not just the calculation button confrontation, it's such a big wall. Looking at the thumb and index finger of his right hand, I only hope that the elephant god Ganesa can bless him and take two fewer hits.
But in an instant, he was happy again, because Paul's hope was disappointed. Hmph, even if you are really in a group with Su Shan, what about the mixed confrontation, if you want to see people, there is no door, at most you can hear a voice.
Deserted again, and Achai suddenly woke up. Hurriedly gathered his mind and pressed the red light indicating that he was ready, and the red light turned green. Then, Achai's number emerged, number 31.
It didn't take long for Yatana's soft voice to sound: all ready, eighty people on each side of the red and blue sides.
Hearing that there were eighty people, Ah Chai became nervous again, and with so many people, it was even more difficult.
"Ready!" Yatana's voice rang out again.
In the upper part of the button wall, above the digital display, calculation rules begin to appear. Achai carefully memorized the calculation rules. If you forget the calculation rules, you will not only be injured every time you can't calculate, but you will also be disliked and dragged back by your classmates. If you want to call up the rules to check again, you will be deducted points.
"Let's go!"
As soon as he heard the start, Achai held his breath and looked nervously at the digital display.
It's good that he didn't start by himself. The classmates began to report the numbers, and he listened attentively and calculated.
Calculating the button adversarial rules is simple. In front of each person there is a button wall composed of square buttons, and on the top of the button wall, there are two LCD displays that display numbers, and at the beginning of the launch, there will be two sets of numbers on someone's monitor.
These two sets of numbers serve two purposes, one is that the person who sees it uses the first set of numbers to calculate their own button, and the other is for the rest of the team to calculate who the next person is and which button to press.
Instead of the first one, the two sets of numbers simply indicate the next person and the next button.
People who see the numbers should report the numbers to the team members quickly and accurately. On the one hand, you have to calculate the number of buttons you should press according to the number that appears, and then press the button before or when the button lights up.
The rest of the team, after figuring out that it is themselves, needs to calculate the button number as quickly as possible. After the previous person presses it, press the button down. But not only should you press it quickly, but the two sets of numbers that appear on your display screen should also be reported very quickly, so that the people behind you can know who should press and which button to press for the first time.
Then the relay begins, and the numbers are constantly being reported, the buttons are pressed, and the cycle continues.
Both groups of people who are fighting each other get the same number and have the same difficulty. As time goes on, the difference slowly appears, some are fast and some are slow, and the fast group accumulates to 20 seconds faster to win a victory.
Whenever someone gives out a number, everyone else starts the math, and if it's not you, you can take a break. But most of the students will do the math and figure out the button number.
The faster you press it, of course, the better, but if you can't calculate it, it's slow, or if you miscalculate it, press it wrong, and the light will turn on itself. But after the light is on for one second, press it again, and there will be a steel needle on the lamp, and if you want to press the button, you must let the steel needle pass through your finger or press it directly with a bone against the steel needle. By that time, not only was the finger injured and painful, but the time was at least one and a half seconds behind.
The appearance of the steel needle is a difficult choice, especially when the other team has a lead of almost twenty seconds. If you don't, you may have to bear the wrath of the rest of the team, because the whole team will be affected by the results of winning and losing. If you press it, it is very likely that you will lose when you are the next person, and your hand will be injured in vain.
And this injury and pain will not be refreshed with winning or losing, and the effect will continue until the end of the entire confrontation training session.
The number of buttons on the wall is determined according to the difficulty, and the higher the difficulty, the more buttons. The width of the button wall is generally the button that needs to be pressed to the edge in the middle of the station, which is two steps from the left and right, and the four steps from the left and right that are more difficult. And the more people who participate, the more difficult it becomes.
The whole process feels very slow, but in fact, someone has been pressing the button, and according to the average of their group, the interval between two presses is basically no more than a second.
Achai got off to a bad start, made a mistake in his first busy game and was stabbed. Subsequently, despite his efforts to concentrate, he was still stabbed many times, and lost the first game due to his hesitation.
Later, a girl reminded him that when he arrived, he always called No. 31, XXX button before he could calculate it. This girl is obviously one level higher than his ability, and the next time she marshalls, it will be impossible to be in a group with him. The girl's behavior seems to be taking care of Achai, but in fact, for Achai it is a minus behavior, because he has become a shortcoming. But it's a bonus for the team, and it's also a bonus for the girl herself.
Ah Chai was depressed, but he had to do it as quickly as possible. Otherwise, he will be rated even lower.
By the end of the course, his rating of 55.9 was still a few points away from the passing line. And it turned out that he was at least above the passing line.
He quit the system in frustration, looked at the grades, and was at the bottom of the class.
He looked at his classmates who were either elated or relieved, and wondered why the gap between people and people was so big.
After dinner, the interest in going to the gym is gone. Ah Chai went to bed early and watched a high-rated movie made by a senior sister who had already gone to work.
Just when he wanted to indulge himself completely, he unexpectedly received a job offer from a senior brother.
This invitation made him tangled. If you accept the invitation, you can only become a low-level employee of Shengshi Company. People can be regarded as people from Shengshi Company, but they only work for the invited senior brother, and it is difficult to become a regular employee in the future. But if you refuse the invitation, you may not be able to get such an invitation again, and you may have to leave the prosperous world next year.
I can't watch the movie anymore, and time passes in his constant entanglement. Eventually, after his roommates had fallen asleep, he chose to accept the invitation.
What he didn't know was that all the students who had left Shengshi before finally returned to Shengshi as low-level employees to work for Shengshi Technology Co., Ltd.
