Luo Shizhen was a truly honest person. He studied and lived very earnestly, but unfortunately, he was not very smart. After repeating his final year of high school for two years, his grades still w...
Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Chapter 9
Qin Yinian failed to seize the opportunity to explain to Luo Shizhen the hidden content of the scientific news.
Because Chen Heyan was reminded, he started explaining.
There is indeed something hidden in the news.
For example, the first wave of strange things suddenly descended on all parts of the world thirty years ago. On that day, large-scale bloody incidents occurred all over the world. Some people believed that it was some kind of chemical weapon. Various countries also negotiated and conducted various research on this.
At the same time, Qi appeared in the air, and the first group of awakened people also appeared.
Some people once thought that this was a national evolution, some believed that the world was about to be destroyed, and some believed that these monsters were invaders and peace would be restored as long as they were driven away.
But no matter which one it is, what is certain is that the weirdness needs to be eliminated.
People have used hot weapons for this purpose, but most monsters are immune to hot weapons, and only cold weapons and awakened people can deal with them.
Thirty years have passed, and the number of monsters is increasing every day. The only way for humans to deal with them is to use the lives of the awakened ones.
In the past thirty years, countless awakened people have died in strange battles, and some already weak countries have disappeared quietly in the world. Only the big countries are still trying to maintain superficial peace.
Xia State is one of the countries that maintains peace. However, in the past thirty years, strange things have appeared more and more frequently, and Xia State can no longer hide it.
Now that it is disclosed, not only can it no longer be concealed, but we also hope that the public can have some understanding of the weirdness and be more vigilant.
Luo Shizhen was still a little confused after reading the news until the phone in his pocket started buzzing.
It was the class group of Class 3 that was sending messages crazily.
All high schools collect cell phones. Luo Shizhen's cell phone was returned to him by Teacher Gao after he asked for leave. The reason for collecting his cell phone was not because they were afraid that he would play with it in class.
Luo Shizhen is very obedient. He never does anything else in class but just listens attentively, even though it is almost the same as if he didn't hear anything.
The main reason was that he was too honest and easy to be deceived. At the beginning, Gao Xi refused to accept Luo Shizhen's mobile phone. As a result, other people in Class 3 found out. People like Zhang Chuan, who were full of evil ideas, began to trick Luo Shizhen into lending him his mobile phone to play with.
Luo Shizhen always gets fooled and even believes lies like "Teacher Gao asked me to take away your phone."
Later, Gao Xi simply took his phone away and returned it to him during the holidays.
Today is a holiday, and the students should have seen the news. The class group named [Lao Gao, fly happily, Class 3 will always be with you] is refreshing the messages rapidly.
Classmate 1: [Awakened, awakened, let me become an awakened one! ! ! ]
Student 2: [I've had this video here for over half a year, and it gets blocked as soon as I post it. I can't even share it with friends, or say anything at all. Now I can finally post it.]
Classmate 3: [In the "X" incident involving the Pen Fairy, I heard that someone summoned the Pen Fairy and summoned back a senior who had previously hanged herself at school. Several people who summoned the Pen Fairy all hanged themselves. The school previously tried to deny the situation, saying they were forced to commit suicide due to academic pressure.]
Classmate 4: [Is this true? Holy shit! Am I dreaming?!]
Classmate 5: [Help! I just saw a zombie video saying that people who are buried in the ground are very likely to turn into zombies. I just returned to the village today for a funeral, and the person hasn't been buried yet. Should I tell my parents to rush back overnight? Urgent!]
Classmate 6: [Zhang Cai seemed to have been attacked by a zombie, right? I heard she was taken away by ambulance that night. @Zhang Cai, are you okay? Was it really a zombie?]
Zhang Cai: [It's still alive, it's a zombie. Luckily Luo Shizhen saved me. That thing opened its mouth and bit off a large piece of flesh from my neck. The doctor said I was bleeding profusely and almost died. I only woke up at noon today. My mom took this picture of me [picture][picture]]
Classmate 6: […Sister! I kneel down to you! The blood is gushing! You really don’t treat us as outsiders!]
Classmate 7: [Holy crap! It's actually a zombie? I thought you were just joking, but you're still alive @张彩 [like][like][like]]
Classmate 7: [Shitou is awesome! He can even fight zombies! You're still alive too @洛石真 [Like][Like][Like]]
Zhang Cai: [Of course, these are all my medals. How could anyone survive being bitten like this?]
Zhang Cai: [@Luo Shizhen, thank you, Luo Shizhen. If it weren't for you, I'd be dead. My mom wanted to come over to thank you, but then she found out you were on leave. Are you okay? Did you get bitten while fighting the zombies?]
Zhang Chuan: [@Luo Shizhen,??? How come I didn't know about this? Are you okay? If you're okay, just let me know.]
Luo Shizhen: [Squeak.]
Luo Shizhen: [@Zhang Cai, you’re welcome. Every classmate will help if they see this [blush][blush][blush]]
Chu Xiao behind him suddenly said, "Why are you blushing in front of Zhang Cai?"
Luo Shi lowered his head in embarrassment: "Zhang Cai thanked me, so I just wanted to show my friendship."
After answering, he continued to look at the group, but Qin Yinian asked:
"Chu Xiao, if I'm not mistaken, that's Class 3's group. Why are you in Class 3's group when you're in Class 1?"
Luo Shizhen was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening:
"Yes, Chu Xiao, how could you see the content of our Class 3 group chat?"
Chu Xiao said calmly, "I helped Wang Yang from your class with his lessons. To express my gratitude, he lent me his trumpet."
Luo Shizhen exclaimed, "So that's how it is."
Then he continued to look down at the group.
Qin Yinian was very surprised. Even though he had already discovered that Luo Shizhen was an amazing person, he was still very surprised.
Did Luo Shizhen just let this go so easily? Did he not continue to ask why Chu Xiao was spying on the Class 3 group?
Didn't he realize that this matter was directly related to him?
Whenever he sent a blushing emoji to his classmates in the group chat, Chu Xiao would ask, "Didn't he find it abnormal and unbearable to have a friend like Chu Xiao who was so controlling?"
Luo Shi really didn't feel anything. He didn't realize that Chu Xiao was checking the Class 3 group chat because of him. He was immersed in the friendly atmosphere of the class.
Because he bravely saved Zhang Cai, Luo Shizhen, who had always been unknown in the class, instantly became the hero of the entire Class 3.
Everyone was @ing him, praising him for being awesome, and commending him for being loyal. Some were also asking him if he had practiced before, if he had any tricks, and what zombies looked like, and if they really jumped around like they did on TV.
Luo Shizhen happily answered every classmate's question. He had never received so much attention and recognition.
Many female classmates also sent him emojis of likes, thanking him for saving Zhang Cai. Now he is feeling very proud.
Moreover, Zhang Cai chatted with him privately, asking him what he was doing on leave, and said that she would come to thank him after she was discharged from the hospital.
If you hadn't showed up in time, I really would have died. After the news came out today, a lot of previously banned information has been leaked. I heard that most people bitten by zombies died or turned into zombies. I guess I was rescued in time, so I'm fine. My parents are so grateful to you. Honestly, they want to kneel down for you.
[You're not in this city, so can you tell me when you come back? I'll definitely treat you to a meal when I recover!]
Luo Shizhen could almost be said to be flattered. Zhang Cai had always been the focus of the crowd in Class 3. She had good grades, a good personality, and was very beautiful.
In the past, Luo Shizhen had almost no chance to talk to her. It wasn’t that Zhang Cai ignored him, but their seats were too far away from each other.
Zhang Cai sat in the front row and Luo Shizhen sat in the back row. Zhang Cai was a day student and Luo Shizhen was a boarding student. The two seemed to be separated by a galaxy.
But now! Zhang Cai! Add him as a friend! Private message him! Thank him! And offer to treat him to a meal!
Luo Shi was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
He wanted to say something nice, but he really didn't know what to say, so he could only clumsily type that you're welcome, it's not a big deal, and any classmate who saw it would help.
Although the world is changing rapidly, with zombies, ghosts, and red and blue toilet paper, Luo Shizhen has received many benefits that he never had before.
Zhang Cai was praised by his classmates, and he was invited to treat him to a meal. He also received a salary of 20,000 yuan and was transferred to a new school.
I feel like things are developing in a good direction.
Luo Shizhen is also more looking forward to school life.
The car stopped——
We have arrived at Luoxia City Awakener School.
Chen Heyan led Luo Shizhen out of the car and introduced him:
"Awakeners' schools usually have batches of students for easier training. This school only has 27 students. The small number of students makes it easier for them to develop relationships with each other."
"Come, first familiarize yourself with your classmates' names and appearances."
He slid the tablet and the student list appeared in front of Luo Shizhen.
Luo Shizhen looked through the pages with sparkling eyes. When he heard that there were few people, he was a little confused. But when he heard that it would be convenient for developing relationships, this doubt turned into understanding.
It is indeed easier to play together when there are fewer people.
Isn't it the case with him and Chu Xiao? Because they are the only two without parents in the town, they can play together.
In Class 3, he prefers to play with girls. Girls are gentler and easier to talk to, and they won't laugh at him for being slow to react and stupid.
Luo Shizhen turned one page, then another, and another.
His expression gradually became confused, and he looked at Chen Heyan in bewilderment:
"Teacher, why are they all boys?"
There might be fewer girls in some classes, but there shouldn't be 27 girls, not even one, right?!
Chen Heyan then remembered that he had forgotten to tell Luo Shizhen about the gender of the awakened person.
"It was my fault, teacher. I forgot to tell you that among awakened people, opposites repel each other."
Luo Shizhen's eyes were dull: "Opposites repel each other?"
He has only learned that like repels like.
"Yes, they repel each other. If awakened people reproduce together, their Qi will be transferred to the child, and they will become ordinary people and quickly become contaminated and die. Therefore, once awakened people of the opposite sex meet, they will instinctively have the intention to kill in order to protect themselves."
Simply put, if you kill the other person, you won't have to have children.
Although it sounds a bit outrageous, this is indeed the instinct of the awakened.
Among the first batch of awakeners, there were seven couples who were already pregnant, but the final results were tragic. Even if the parents were full of love for their unborn children in the previous second, they would uncontrollably want to kill it in the next second.
Love and hostility rarely appear together.
At that time, the Awakening Center had just been established, and no one understood why these Awakening couples would be hostile to their own children. It was not until four pairs of children were born and all the Qi in the parents' bodies was transferred to the children, while they themselves died rapidly from contamination, that everyone understood the reason.
Love is the love for your own children.
Hostility is an instinct for self-preservation.
Of the six couples, only two who chose abortion survived.
The five children who were born were not much better off. The young children could not withstand the high concentration of Qi, and only one of the five children (including a pair of twins) survived.
The remaining four children were all highly contaminated at birth and quickly transformed into strange beings.
The surviving baby was also said to have been contaminated at birth. Perhaps it was because his older brother helped disperse some of the Qi inherited from his parents that he was able to barely survive.
But since infancy, he has been suffering from mental breakdowns caused by high levels of pollution. As for what happened after that, Chen Heyan never heard about it.
In short, Xia Country learned its lesson from then on, and the awakened ones began to be divided according to gender. Whether studying or going on missions, they were all carried out separately, and no one was allowed to stand next to each other.
Chen Heyan told this story to Luo Shizhen and said with emotion:
"These six couples happened to be pregnant at the time of awakening, otherwise they wouldn't have conceived a child. When awakened people of the opposite sex meet, they will definitely fight, even if they were lovers before."
Luo Shizhen: “…”
"Some high-ranking awakened ones can control this instinct, but they can't stand seeing each other for long periods of time. Therefore, both the school and the awakened center are separated by gender."
Luo Shizhen then remembered that it seemed that when he went to the Awakener headquarters, all the people he met were men.
There is no! girl!
Chen Heyan continued to explain: "There are also two Awakeners headquarters, with two leaders, one male and one female. Each side is responsible for 330 cities. The female Awakeners' headquarters is in Shuangyashan, and the male Awakeners' headquarters is in Kashgar."
Luo Shizhen's eyes were dull. He had studied geography and knew that these two cities were the farthest apart in Xia State.
This is enough to prove how much the Awakened repel each other. The straight-line distance between the headquarters is...
He couldn't remember how much it was, and subconsciously looked at Chu Xiao:
"Chu Xiao, what's the straight-line distance between Shuangyashan and Kashgar?"
Chu Xiao, a true academic genius, answered quickly, his tone sounding even more cheerful than usual: "4458.78 kilometers."
Luo Shizhen: “…”
Chen Heyan said caringly, "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about running into other female awakeners. All your travel routes will avoid the routes of female awakeners. Even if a female awakener wants to go on a business trip to a city under the responsibility of a man, they will notify her in advance to avoid and clear the area, so it's safe."
Luo Shizhen: “…”
He looked up at the school plaque in a daze.
At this moment, Luo Shizhen finally realized that the world had really undergone tremendous changes.
So, not only does he have to go to a boys' school, but when he starts working (as a guardian), all his colleagues will be men too?
