Saturday.

Early in the morning, the entire Class 36 gathered and boarded the high-speed train to Beijing.

The reason I came to Beijing is because this water park in Beijing is the largest in the country and has the most facilities.

Twists and turns, super tornado, infinity pool, glass water slide, extreme high-speed slide, wave pool...

Just reading the introduction is exciting and makes me look forward to it.

Since Jiang Nian came to Class 36, Class 36 has escaped poverty in one fell swoop, going directly from the poorest class in the school to the richest class in the school.

Yesterday afternoon, the homeroom teacher took the whole class shopping. Every student bought a new swimsuit, swimming trunks, and swimming cap, not to mention all sorts of snacks and drinks. Even their accommodation for the night was a townhouse in the suburbs of Beijing, costing 10,000 yuan per night.

You should know that in the past, only the top-performing class could go out and play like this with the whole class.

Their Class 36 really stood out this time.

On the high-speed train, everyone was chatting away.

Jiang Nian used to hate such noisy environments.

But even she herself was surprised that she didn't feel irritable now, but instead felt a sense of peace.

I put on my headphones, closed my eyes, and leaned against the car window for a short rest.

I had a brief dream in a daze.

In my dream, I saw the familiar streets of the United States from my memories.

The blonde girl standing in front of her smiled and held out her ice cream for her to taste. Just as she was about to lean over, she felt something brush past her ear and heard a thud.

By the time she realized what was happening, a bloody hole had appeared on the girl's forehead. Her bright smile froze on her face, her eyes bulged, and blood gushed from the hole in her forehead…

Jiang Nian suddenly woke up from her dream.

My chest heaved, and my back was soaked in cold sweat.

I've lost count of how many times I've dreamt of this scene. I dreamt that Annie was shot dead in front of me, her eyes wide open in death.

Jiang Nian felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly, making it hard for her to breathe.

"What's wrong, Nian Nian?" Lin Ruru was startled by Jiang Nian's appearance and quickly came over. "You look terrible. Did you have a nightmare?"

"...I'm fine."

Jiang Nian slowly exhaled.

"It's good that you're alright," Lin Ruru said without thinking too much about it.

With a look of anticipation, he began making plans for the next little while.

"Niannian, we're getting off the bus soon. Once we get to the water park, we'll go there first..."

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruru had only said a few words.

The homeroom teacher, Zhou Sen, who was sitting in front of us, suddenly stood up abruptly and asked in astonishment into the phone, "What did you say? The park is under maintenance and won't be receiving visitors today?"

The moment he spoke, the entire carriage fell silent.

Everyone stared wide-eyed.

What?

The park is undergoing maintenance and will be closed to visitors today.

They're talking about the water park they're going to soon.

Zhou Sen was also stunned. Seeing that all the students in the carriage were looking at him, he simply turned on the speakerphone.

Unable to contain herself, she questioned, "Even if the place is closed for maintenance, shouldn't you have notified the guests a day in advance? How could you give such a last-minute notice?"

“I’m already in Beijing with my whole class. Do you expect me to take the kids back with me? What kind of business is this?”

The staff's voice came through the hands-free connection.

"...I'm so sorry, sir. There was a problem with some equipment in the park, and the management ordered the park to close for a day for a full inspection. It was a last-minute notice, and it was for the safety of our visitors."

"It was indeed our fault for issuing the notice at the last minute. How about this: our park is right next to the Beijing Zoo."

"How about we fully refund all the amusement park tickets for your class, and at the same time, we'll book tickets for the zoo for your whole class today so you can go visit it? What do you think?"

Zhou Sen looked troubled: "This... I need to discuss it with my students first."

Zhou Sen hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and looked at everyone in the carriage.

Everyone heard what the staff member just said.

The water park was undergoing temporary maintenance, so we couldn't go.

Who would have thought they'd suddenly encounter something like this? They'd even bought their swimsuits and trunks!

However, there was no other way.

Even if there are other amusement parks in Beijing, they all require reservations one day in advance, and it's too late to buy tickets now.

"Everyone heard what this person just said."

Zhou Sen scratched his head, feeling a little guilty towards the students. "What do you all think we should do? Should we go back to Jiangcheng first and come back another time? Or should we change our plans and go to the zoo together today?"

Everyone looked dejected.

Zoos are definitely not as fun as water parks.

But we're already here.

Everyone got up very early and took the high-speed train for almost three hours. Now that we've arrived, we can't possibly take another three hours on the high-speed train back.

"Then, teacher, let's go to the zoo!"

Someone said, "I heard that this zoo in Beijing is also the largest zoo in the country with the most animals. There are giant pandas, polar bears, lions, tigers, elephants and so on. Many of them are animals we have never seen before."

"Anyway, we don't have to pay for the tickets, so it's not a bad deal to go."

Others echoed his sentiments.

No matter what, it's better to be out having fun than to stay at home.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhou Sen nodded: "Okay, then I'll go contact the staff over there."

Jiang Nian didn't care where they went.

Today is a day with a gentle breeze and clear skies, perfect for an outing or sightseeing trip.

When the class arrived at the zoo, there were already many visitors, mostly parents with their children.
