Chapter 15: The Peak of the Middle
Lao Zhao's office is on the fourth floor of the administration building, and there is a corridor connecting it to the fourth floor of the south building of the teaching building.
Lin Yi saw an iron door hidden in the middle of the corridor.
He knew that inside was a small two-story attic with glass on all sides.
That place is the commanding height of the entire campus, and you can look down on the whole school, and in the early years, you could even look north to the river.
The classmates called it "the top of the middle school".
It was originally just a storage room for discarding waste, but after some students found it, it was used as a small corner to vent their emotions and began to do mischief.
Graffiti, confessions, gambling and vows......
Young imaginations run wild.
At one point, the school had a lock on it and sealed the iron gates.
Later, a male theological senior surnamed Gao approached Principal Gu and persuaded him to reopen the attic. After that, it became the most unscrupulous "place outside the law" in the school.
In Linzhong, there are usually only two places to go to be called male gods.
One of them is the Beijing College of Arts and Sciences, which is known for its humanities and social sciences majors, and was nicknamed the Poker University because a professor surnamed Hu was particularly fond of playing cards many years ago.
Therefore, the English abbreviation PKU, known as P large.
The second is Wudaokou Vocational and Technical School, which is famous for science and engineering, but it is also the Huangpu Military Academy in the domestic investment banking industry, known as the Investment Banking University.
Investment banking is a well-known gold-collar industry, no matter how humble these people are, "financial migrant workers" can hardly hide their wealth, so it is also named Tuhao University.
The English abbreviation THU, known as T large.
Of course, this "being good at so-and-so" is limited to comparing the two with each other.
It is rumored that some young female teachers in the school are deeply impressed by this handsome senior and will never forget it.
In short, after he went to P University, he became a campus legend that has been passed down in the mouths of teachers and students for many years.
It's now the end of all the subjects for the final exams, and all the students have either left the school or are packing up in the dormitory.
Lin Yi looked left and right, this corridor that usually came and went was empty, he thought about it, opened the door, and stepped onto the narrow iron staircase.
"Giggle".
The friction between the shoes and the steps creates a tooth-aching, unpleasant sound.
This time it seemed to alarm the upstairs, and there was actually the sound of footsteps.
Lin Yi didn't think it was weird, but he didn't expect someone to be up there.
It doesn't seem appropriate to go back now.
He didn't come here much in his previous life, because the top of the middle school is a suitable place to be alone, and it will be more embarrassing if he meets acquaintances.
He hesitated for a second, then decided to keep going up, turned the corner of the stairs, and looked up—
It was actually Gu Caiwei.
She was wearing a denim bib today, with a round-necked sea soul shirt underneath, and the trouser legs were deliberately pulled up to expose her delicate ankles.
Lin Yi knows very well that although the official height announced after her debut is 170, the net height on her college entrance examination physical examination card is clearly written as 168.
Falsely reporting height is also a common practice in the entertainment industry, and such a little moisture is already very real, but her body proportion is very good, so no one doubts the visual effect.
Especially now this angle of looking up.
She stood on the edge of the stairs as if she was about to come down, but the stairs were narrow enough for one person to pass through, and Lin Yi was already standing in the middle.
Lin Yi was also aware of this, so he continued to walk up until he completely walked up to the platform on the top floor, and deliberately set aside a place to go down the stairs.
"Hello"
His greeting was particularly dry, and Gu Caiwei could only wave her hand awkwardly in response.
Lin Yi sighed in his heart.
Gu Caiwei, this person is too special for him, and Lin Yi can't completely advance and retreat in front of her for the time being.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Caiwei didn't seem to plan to go down immediately, she took the initiative to speak.
"I was trained by Lao Zhao just now, and I want to come up and relax."
"Why? Is it still a matter of playing basketball on the day of the summer solstice? ”
"No, the main thing is that the test is too bad."
Well, Gu Caiwei doesn't have much say in this matter, she is a fixed member of the "Crane Tail Group", the kind whose seats are welded.
The space here is so small that the air is particularly dull when the two of them are quiet.
So Lin Yili still asked back and forth, "What were you doing here just now?" ”
Unexpectedly, Gu Caiwei groaned for a while and didn't respond immediately, this time it was even more embarrassing than just now, Lin Yi was thinking about whether he should go down first.
Fortunately, Gu Caiwei still spoke: "Jiaqi...... You know Jiaqi is going to a liberal arts class, right? ”
Lin nodded, and it was no secret who was going to leave in the class.
"She wanted to ask me to come along."
Lin Yi didn't know that there was this paragraph before, he thought that Gu Caiwei, like most middle school students, naturally chose science.
He said uncertainly: "Isn't the form of intent already submitted?" Are you still hesitating? ”
Sure enough, Gu Caiwei confirmed:
"Lao Zhao asked me to make a decision according to the situation of this final exam, I can go back and discuss it with my mother, and then hand it to him when I get the report card in two days."
Gu's mother's face, Lao Zhao wants to give it.
"Is it reluctant to Zhang Jiaqi?"
"Even if she studied liberal arts and you studied science, it's just that you are in the south building and she is in the north building, and they are even on the same floor, and the straight-line distance may not exceed 50 meters."
Lin Yi said that he did not understand this kind of intimate relationship between girls.
Gu Caiwei seems to have decided to share this secret:
"Jiaqi is my best friend, and we have been in the same class since junior high school. Do you know? It was because of her that I decided to take the ...... entrance exam."
"Jiaqi made up her mind to study liberal arts very early, don't look at her science rankings, in fact, she is very good at liberal arts."
Lin Yi knew that Zhang Jiaqi was a hidden liberal arts tyrant.
"I'm different, I'm not good at arts and sciences, and I don't particularly like any subject, so I don't really care......"
Her words sounded a bit insincere, and no one likes to belittle themselves.
"But most of my classmates go to science naturally, and I feel like if I switch to liberal arts, it's like admitting that I'm a bad student."
Gu Caiwei said a little messily, but Lin Yi roughly understood.
Zhang Jiaqi invited her to go to the liberal arts class with either because he didn't want to be separated from her or because he wanted to help her in the liberal arts.
There must be a hint in the words, "Your grades are so bad, you can read literature and science the same".
That's right.
But it's too hurtful to be said so by your best friend.
Although liberal arts and science have no impact on Gu Caiwei's real career in the future, Lin Yi feels that she should want to study science in her heart.
Now that he has met, he can help her make up her mind.
"It's better to think about the advantages and disadvantages of reading literature and reading theory separately."
"Then you write them on the left and right sides of the same page, compare them, and you should be able to find your own answer."
Gu Caiwei nodded as if she didn't understand.
At this time, the "Didi" in her pocket rang, and she took out her mobile phone to take a look, it was a red Nokia N97, the fashion frontier of that era.
Soon after, when smartphones took over, the hinged slider design seemed to be gone.
"It's my mom who picked me up, I'll go first."
She hurried down the stairs, and when she turned the corner, she suddenly turned back to warn,
"Don't say it!"
Lin Yibi made an "OK" gesture, and she ran downstairs with confidence.
When Gu Caiwei walked towards the school gate alone, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind:
"Was Lin Yi trying to keep me just now?"
