Chapter 7 Xiao Zhier felt that every second was a torture in some way...
"Can someone explain to me how this happened?"
Xiao Zhier looked at the mess in front of him with a headache. He took a deep breath before looking at the "mermaid" sitting next to the stage.
The fat mermaid touched the small part of her body that was squeezed by her fishtail skirt, and threw a coquettish look at Xiao Zhier: "This is because October 1st coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, and we are preparing to perform the Little Mermaid at the party."
Xiao Zhier's face was filled with indescribable words: "The Little Mermaid?"
The student who played the fat mermaid struggled to throw the blue tail wrapped tightly around her leg: "Well, our main theme this time is an entertainment show, so it's probably... a gender-reversed version of the Little Mermaid?"
Xiao Zhier raised his eyebrows and looked at the pile of limp paper shells around him: "But you are obviously acting out a storm at sea, or what it looks like after the storm ends."
The fat mermaid lowered his head in a shy manner after hearing this. He raised his hand and gestured: "Hehe, it was just a small accident. The tail couldn't be taken off. I used a little too much strength when I struggled."
"It's a little bit!"
The students in charge standing by couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but roll their eyes and complain.
Everyone laughed. The fat mermaid student was not shy at all. He raised his leg and swung his tail at the person in charge: "Bah, can't the little mermaid be born with supernatural powers?"
Amidst the laughter, Xiao Zhier shook his head helplessly. He squatted down beside the fat mermaid and poked his leg wrapped in the fish tail. "Still making trouble? Hurry up and find a pair of scissors. If you keep wrapping it for a while, be careful that your blood circulation will be blocked and it will swell up again, making it even harder to take it off."
The fat mermaid was startled. He subconsciously reached out and grabbed his fish tail tightly. "But the party is the day after tomorrow. How can I perform if I get it cut badly?"
Xiao Zhier laughed. He took the scissors that Xu Censheng handed to him and patted the fat mermaid's calf to signal him to turn over. "There is a tailor shop outside the side door of the school. The auntie there has good craftsmanship. Take it to her and ask her to change it into a zipper style for you, so that you don't have to take it off again."
"A tailor shop, is it reliable?"
The fat mermaid lay down half-believingly, and he shook his tail at Xiao Zhier. The big blue tail fin swayed gently with the movement, sparkling and very beautiful.
Xiao Zhier put one knee on his back and tried hard to grab the edge of the fish's tail. It took him a long time to get the blade of the scissors in without hurting the fat mermaid classmate.
In no time, Xiao Zhier peeled the skin off the fat mermaid. He threw the scissors aside, stretched out his hands to peel off the fish skin and free the fat man's legs. Only then did he have time to answer his previous question: "It's reliable. If you don't believe me, ask Xu Censheng. He has tried it."
Xu Censheng's face froze. He was brainstorming to come up with something to say when he heard his roommate burst out laughing, "It turns out that Brother Xiao took Xu Censheng's military training pants embroidered with small flowers to have mended. I was wondering if Xu Censheng didn't look like he liked floral ones, hahahahaha!"
Xu Censheng closed his eyes in pain, he was finished.
Xiao Zhier glanced at Xu Censheng. After all, he was Xu Ze's eldest nephew. Although Xiao Zhier and Xu Ze could only be considered friends now, he had to admit that he was interested in Xu Ze, so naturally he should say something for his eldest nephew.
Xiao Zhier cleared his throat, looked around calmly, and then patted the fat mermaid's leg: "I won't say anything about others, but what's there to laugh at him for? I'll send this one to Auntie to edit later."
The fat mermaid was laughing the last second, but was petrified after hearing Xiao Zhier's words.
His mind was now filled with the little flower he had seen on Xu Censheng's military training pants.
It's numb.
Xiao Zhier punished the fat mermaid with one sentence, and he had no intention of letting the others go. He picked up the paper shell beside him and shook it at the students in the crew who were gathered around him: "The performance will be the day after tomorrow, don't you hurry up and make new props?"
As soon as he said this, a group of people gasped. The person in charge of the props team then remembered that many props were accidentally crushed when their fat mermaid turned over. The little girl cursed inwardly and quickly asked the props team to hurry up and work again.
"Can you please leave?"
Xiao Zhier looked down at the fat mermaid's legs which were already swollen due to blood congestion and felt a little worried. He really wasn't sure if the situation was serious or not. But seeing that his student's legs were so red, Xiao Zhier was also worried that he might really be hurt by the mermaid's tail.
The fat mermaid smiled and waved her hands, put on her school uniform pants, stood up and patted her legs: "It's okay, everything is under control!"
Xiao Zhier was amused by him. He bent down, folded the mermaid's tail and put it into the bag: "Okay, then you relax, I will go and solve the problem of this tail for you."
The smile on the fat mermaid's face froze slightly. He looked at Xiao Zhier, seeming to be hesitant to speak, not knowing how to express to his counselor that his fish tail was not suitable for embroidering a small flower.
Xiao Zhier noticed the embarrassment on the student's face. He smiled and rubbed the fat mermaid's head. His hands were sweaty and his movements froze. Then he patted the fat mermaid's shoulder without changing his expression and returned the sweat to its original owner: "Don't worry, Xiaohua won't be hurt."
The fat mermaid was obviously relieved. He smiled and winked at Xiao Zhier: "Okay, then Xiao, tell me how much it cost after you're done, and I'll transfer it to you!"
Xiao Zhier waved his hand and said, "Come on, Brother Xiao is sponsoring you a Fish Tail 2.0. You should hurry up and help the props team to get those props. Don't let the clothes be finished by the time the props can't keep up."
"odk no problem!"
It can be said that this is worthy of being a tailor shop recognized by Xiao Zhier for its excellent craftsmanship. The tailor aunt has a complete range of things. I don’t know if it is because the cosplay club of Shaocheng University is well developed, but as soon as the aunt saw the fish tail, she took out a light blue translucent gauze from the cupboard.
Xiao Zhier was delighted when he saw it. The aunt was deft and quick. Not only did she help Xiao Zhier change the tail into a zipper style, she also cut the gauze into two pieces and fixed them on both sides of the fishtail. This not only covered up the traces of the zipper, but also made the fishtail much more beautiful.
Xiao Zhier was very satisfied.
He is now looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala the day after tomorrow, and wondering what kind of Little Mermaid performance his students will bring to him.
Shaocheng University is a nationally renowned comprehensive university with rich colleges and departments. Every year the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala follows the military training for freshmen and the National Day, so the school’s events are particularly lively. Moreover, this time it is a double holiday, so it is naturally more grand.
The party is not only for students and teachers, but also for parents. The school’s own new media station will broadcast the entire event live online. The scene is comparable to a party on a small TV station.
As a counselor, Xiao Zhier naturally also has to take on the responsibility of greeting the parents of the students in his class.
"Brother Xiao."
As soon as Xiao Zhier arrived at the school gate, he saw a familiar figure standing under the eaves of the security booth. When Xu Ze saw Xiao Zhier, he quickly walked up to him, chuckled and greeted him.
Xiao Zhier took the water from Xu Ze with a smile: "I thought Xu Censheng would invite his father over, but I didn't expect it to be you."
Xu Ze shrugged: "My brother flew abroad on a business trip the day before yesterday. The old man thought the scene was too noisy and said he wanted to watch the live broadcast at home. It happened to be my day off, so I came here as a representative."
He paused, and looked with interest at a few students in the distance running over with a bunch of props: "I heard from Xu Censheng that the show your class prepared this time is particularly exciting. Can Brother Xiao reveal it to us?"
Xiao Zhier silently recalled the fat mermaid that he had seen before coming out. He turned to look at Xu Ze and smiled: "It's a secret for now, but I promise I won't let you down. It's really exciting."
He deliberately emphasized the word "special", which made Xu Ze start to look forward to it.
Xiao Zhier silently shifted his gaze.
Well, this can’t be considered as defrauding Xu Ze. To a certain extent, explosive should be similar to wonderful... right?
Xiao Zhier had been comforting himself with this idea until he sat in the audience and saw the white and tender belly of his student when the light on the stage came brightly. Xiao Zhier's eyes went dark.
I'm afraid the word "wonderful" cannot cover it up.
In the next seven minutes, all of Xiao Zhier's literary talent, which had been exhausted throughout his life, could only be described as one wave after another. The description of the explosion given to him by the person in charge was not an exaggeration.
A row of shrimp soldiers and crab generals twisting their bodies in grass skirts, a gender-reversed prince riding a donkey robbed from the Agricultural College, and a chubby mermaid moving forward.
Xiao Zhier was sitting in the audience. He looked at the fat mermaid on the stage flapping her tail fin exaggeratedly and felt that every second was torture.
Xu Ze, who was standing by, couldn't hold back his excitement halfway through. He turned to look at Xiao Zhier and said in a low voice, "Brother Xiao, I think you were too modest in the afternoon."
Xiao Zhier looked at him repeatedly, as if a robot had frozen. Then Xu Ze smiled and continued, "I'm serious. Your drama is guaranteed to be a hit."
Xiao Zhier was stunned for two seconds. He suddenly turned around to look at the huge live camera of the New Media Department and silently covered his face.
He now just wanted to turn around and run.
At this moment, Xiao Zhier felt a hand reaching out to him. He let Xu Ze hold his hand. The two of them were originally sitting at the edge. At this moment, they looked at each other, stood up, crouched down and secretly ran out.
Xiao Zhier really couldn't bear to watch such an explosive stage play.
The party was held in the largest conference hall in the school. Everyone was watching the party in the conference hall. Night had fallen, and the cool breeze outside brought the sound of birds singing past our ears, creating a rare quietness in the school.
Xiao Zhier looked up at the moon in the sky. The Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon. The moon in the sky had become full, and the bright moon like a silver plate hung high in the sky, casting warm light.
Xiao Zhier bathed in the moonlight. He took a deep breath of the night air, turned around and smiled at Xu Ze.
