Chapter 10
Lin Li said that she had never been beaten so badly in her life.
He was certain his arm was swollen.
The screams just now did not elicit sympathy from the surrounding classmates; instead, they drew their ridicule.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. He couldn't run, so what if he was slow? It's not like he didn't run at all. Why should I hit him? My own parents have never hit him like that.
Lin Li felt increasingly aggrieved as she thought about it, and her eyes welled up with tears.
The PE teacher tossed the iron rod in his hand, his face grim, and said, "I warned you a long time ago, you run slower than a tortoise. Are you taking a walk?"
Seeing Lin Li's half-crisp look, the PE teacher immediately deflated and burst out laughing.
"What, can't I say anything now? Oh dear, why are you crying now?"
Without waiting for Lin Li's reaction, he whistled and said, "Free time, dismissed."
Lin Li also had his pride; he was too embarrassed to cry in public.
After the people around him dispersed, he covered his arm and walked towards the small garden in the corner of the playground.
There are few people there.
He took off his coat and placed it on the flower bed, rolled up his short-sleeved shirt, and looked down at the wound.
On her fair arm, there was a glaring bloodstain, from when the teacher hit her with a stick; beads of blood were still oozing from it.
Lin Li gasped as she looked at the horrific scene.
He knew it must be swollen.
After the group disbanded, Tong Yao went to the convenience store and bought a pack of toilet paper.
When she returned to the playground, she did not find Lin Li. After thinking for a moment, she walked towards a corner.
Sure enough, she saw Lin Li sitting by the flower bed. She walked over and stood in front of Lin Li.
"Don't we go for a morning run every day?"
Tong Yao took a piece of paper and handed it to Lin Li.
"And you're still running like this."
Lin Li was already unhappy, and when Tong Yao mocked her, tears welled up in her eyes. She angrily took the tissue.
While cleaning her wound, she quickly wiped away her tears.
"So what if I can't run? You're bullying me too!"
Lin Li didn't notice that his voice was trembling with tears.
Tong Yao remained silent and did not speak, but instead lowered her head and pulled out another piece of paper for Lin Li.
"Don't cry."
"I didn't cry!"
"Then why are your eyes red?"
"It was blown by the wind."
...
After a long while, Tong Yao spoke up: "I'm starting to believe what you're saying. You might really have been a girl in your past life."
"Why?"
"Too delicate."
She's also prone to jealousy and has no sense of distance.
"Because I cried? Can't boys cry?"
...
"That's true, I was narrow-minded."
…………………………
After PE class ended, on the way back to class, Tong Yao was called away by the PE teacher, while Lin Li returned to class by herself.
As soon as I entered the classroom, I was surrounded.
Tang Yue looked at Lin Li and clicked her tongue, "That old zombie didn't hold back, did he?"
Li Jiahao rolled up his sleeve, revealing two large black marks: "The old zombie's marks from last time haven't healed yet."
An old zombie?
Lin Li remembered that the PE teacher's surname was Jiang, and everyone called him Teacher Jiang, until one time a boy misspoke.
They called him "Old Zombie," and that nickname just stuck.
This PE teacher is really ruthless. He almost beat a student to death before. Back then, he was physically punishing a student, and he hit the student right in the chest with a stick.
The ambulance arrived immediately.
The boy spent several days in the ICU, but fortunately his life was not in danger.
I thought this would teach the old zombie a lesson, but after changing schools, he only behaved for a short time before starting again.
Students have reported this teacher many times, but it's no use; this old zombie has quite a background.
Everyone accepted their fate.
Li Jiahao patted Lin Li on the shoulder and said, "After school, let's go and puncture his electric scooter tires."
Lin Li said helplessly, "You don't even know where his car is."
"I know, of course I know! The old zombie rides to work every day, and his bike is parked right in front of the school."
"Forget it..." Lin Li thought about it and decided to give up, but she was still a little unwilling.
"The sports meet is next week. If you want to sign up, come to me."
Tong Yao walked up to the podium with a stack of papers, which were probably registration forms.
Seeing that no one moved, he continued, "Teacher Liu said that each group must send at least one person to participate in the sports meet. For each event, the participant will receive 5 points for conduct."
Conduct score is a method that homeroom teachers use to manage students.
A summary is conducted weekly, and the group with the highest score receives a reward.
The notebooks and snacks were all bought with class funds.
Lin Li has only received one award in her entire life, including her previous life, when she was in elementary school.
It was a fox keychain.
Good performance earns points, while poor performance results in point deductions and penalties.
Sleeping in class results in a 5-point deduction per instance. Lin Li lost 80 points for sleeping in class, which is too many, so he was punished by sweeping the floor for a semester.
Liu Hongli said that if his score is positive, he won't have to scan it.
It's funny to think about it, but even in high school, Lin Li couldn't escape the fate of sweeping the floor.
Because of poor dormitory discipline, they ended up sweeping the dormitory floor for a whole semester.
The notebook recording conduct grades is with Cheng Yu.
Lin Li wanted to see how much debt she was currently in.
Of course, he also knew that the dog wouldn't be given to him.
Fortunately, more than one person was curious about their score.
Lin Li waited until they finished reading it and then asked them to pass it on to him.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone began to sign up enthusiastically.
A few minutes later.
Tong Yao looked at the list in her hand.
There are also men's 1500m, women's 800m, shot put, and high jump with fewer participants.
This way.
"Lin Li, what did you apply for?" Tang Yue asked, pulling Lin Li aside. She continued, "I advise you to apply for more; your conduct score is still negative."
In the end, Lin Li signed up for shot put and high jump, leaving running to someone who was better suited for it.
Over here, Tong Yao watched Lin Li fill in the shot put and asked:
Your hand...
"It's alright now, only a little bit of red left."
Lin Li said with a smile, rolling up her sleeve to show Tong Yao.
There's really only a tiny red mark left.
Tong Yao pursed her lips: "Okay."
"Ring ring ring".
The school bell rang.
"Anyone else interested in joining? Come find me after class."
After speaking, Tong Yao returned to her seat.
This is a chemistry class.
My chemistry teacher was a kind old man named Huang Yaoshi, a homonym for "Huang Yaoshi" (a famous Chinese medicine practitioner).
The chemistry class representative was a girl, and everyone later called her "Huang Rong".
Lin Li's chemistry grades were exceptional; she never fell out of the top 20 in her grade throughout high school.
He remembered that chemistry was Tong Yao's weak subject. Of course, the weak subject of a top student and the strong subject of a poor student are the same, not much different.
With a perfect score of 100, Tong Yao only scored in the 80s.
Junior high school chemistry is considered a humanities subject, mostly involving rote memorization, and Lin Li found it boring after listening for a while.
I wanted to lie down to sleep, but when I looked back...
Sure enough, Cheng Yu was staring at him intently.
As soon as he climbs down, she will definitely write down his name immediately.
Sigh, I can't sleep now.
As for doing homework for other subjects, that was even more impossible. It was more provocative to the teacher than sleeping, especially since he was sitting in the first row.
It's not like the special case where I would die if I didn't write a few days ago, there's no need to take that risk.
So Lin Li put her hand on the table, rested her chin on it, and darted her eyes around.
It stopped when it turned to the right.
Tong Yao is writing her chemistry textbook (53).
"53" naturally refers to the "Five Years of College Entrance Examination, Three Years of Simulation" textbook.
No, it should be "Five years of mock exams and three years of college entrance exams?"
No, no, no, what a middle school student should be writing is "Five years of middle school entrance exams and three years of mock exams?"
Forget it, I don't care anymore.
This workbook is very difficult; it's a favorite among top students.
At this moment, Tong Yao was looking at her workbook and occasionally flipping through the chemistry book in her hand.
His expression was serious, and he kept biting his lip; it was clear the question was quite difficult.
Lin Li leaned closer to take a look.
This is a chemistry experiment question.
Given a set of experimental data, you are asked to deduce the impurities produced in one of the steps.
The test was quite tricky and specialized, not the usual experimental questions. The given reactants also had a long list of chemical formulas.
Actually, if you've studied high school chemistry, solving these kinds of problems is a piece of cake.
What you learn in junior high school is just some basic chemistry knowledge.
To solve these kinds of questions, you need to judge based on the chemical formulas of the reactants. If it is..., then you can... Chemistry is a subject with rules, but there are many exceptions.
Seeing that Tong Yao seemed to have no clue, Lin Li said, "Barium sulfate."
"Precipitated barium sulfate."
"The reactants have already been given in the question, and the possible impurities they may contain include barium and iron. So because of this, the answer for this step is barium sulfate."
Tong Yao paused slightly in her grip on the pen, her tightly furrowed brows relaxed a little, and her cool gaze shifted from the workbook to Lin Li's face.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by scrutiny.
The answer is completely correct, but the thought process behind solving the problem is...
The image of Lin Li saying that she had traveled from the future flashed through her mind again.
A student who spends all his time sleeping or reading novels in class, who scored only a few points on tests just two weeks ago, has transformed in less than a month into someone with clear problem-solving skills, approaching problems entirely from the perspective of high school knowledge. What kind of incredible tutoring program could produce such results? This can only mean that what Lin Li said that day might be true.
Perhaps shocked by her own thoughts, or perhaps stunned by Lin Li, Tong Yao lowered her head and stared blankly at the workbook in her hand.
The next second, she looked up at Lin Li again, the probing in her eyes fading, replaced by a calm acceptance based on logical verification. She said:
"Lin Li, it seems we might really be classmates again in high school."
Lin Li was a little confused by Tong Yao's words, but assumed that she was impressed by his knowledge, so he smiled smugly.
………………
After cleaning, Lin Li slung her backpack over her shoulder and left the classroom.
At the top of the stairs, a slender figure came into view.
"Tong Yao? Why haven't you left yet?"
The girl, with her schoolbag on her back, stood at the corner of the stairs, bathed in the slanting rays of the setting sun, gazing into the distance, lost in thought. Hearing the voice, she turned around and said calmly, "Waiting for you."
The two left the school gate, and Tong Yao looked at the milk tea shop and went inside.
"Would you like some milk tea?" Lin Li asked from behind.
"Okay, please."
After entering the store.
"Hello, what would you two like to drink?" the waiter's voice rang out.
"Hello, I'd like a bubble tea," Tong Yao turned to Lin Li and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
Lin Li doesn't actually like drinking milk tea. Her teeth are bad, and eating too much sweet food will cause her teeth to hurt.
I glanced at the milk tea menu.
"□□ Squeeze and taste delicious, like a milk tea."
What a weird name! Lin Li had never seen it before and thought it was some new drink, so she said, "Hello, I want this [missing name] 'Squeezing and Delicious Meow Tea'."
5 minutes later.
"Hello, bubble tea for both of you."
Lin Li reminded the clerk: "You may have made a mistake. I ordered the '□□捏捏好喝到咩噗茶' (a type of tea)."
The shop assistant nodded. "Yes, it's bubble tea."
Lin Li looked at the "□□ pinch and squeeze delicious tea" in her hand.
Ugh! It's just bubble tea?!
Upon seeing this, Tong Yao's lips curved into a barely perceptible smile.
...
Lin Li chewed on the pearls in her mouth, watching Tong Yao board the bus, and said, "See you tomorrow."
Tong Yao waved and said, "See you tomorrow."
As the bus drove further and further away, Lin Li suddenly remembered that the bus would pass by his house, and he could have taken the same bus home as Tong Yao.
I bit down hard on the pearl, and the next second I felt a sharp pain coming from my back molars.
"Ouch, my tooth hurts."
