Chapter 031 Cannibalization-5
"What kind of animals do you like?" Jiang Yan thought for a moment, the sun shining on his trembling eyelashes, and the people in the back seat stared at him as if he were a treasure. Finally, the boy in the front seat answered when the car stopped at the traffic light, "Cats and dogs."
Meng Tang retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay."
"And you?"
"Hmm..." Meng Tang pursed his lips, "Spider."
"Spider?" Jiang Yan seemed a little surprised. He didn't expect that the man in the back seat, who looked sick, was actually quite brave and would like such a scary creature.
Meng Tang tilted his head, "Is it not possible?"
Jiang Yan smiled dryly, "No, spiders are good too."
!!!
Hearing this answer, the little spider who was pretending to be sickly almost burst into pink bubbles. He raised the corners of his mouth high from behind Jiang Yan, "I feel the same way, hehe."
Jiang Yan heard the boy in the back seat's unstoppable joyful laughter and thought: He's just like a little kid, his emotions are clearly written on his face.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the school.
"You go to the classroom, I'll go park the car."
After Jiang Yan parked the shared bike at the designated spot at the school gate, he looked up and found Meng Tang hadn't left. He was startled, "You haven't left yet."
Meng Tang nodded, "I'll wait for you."
"That's fine."
The wind rustled the sycamore trees on campus. Meng Tang coughed softly. Jiang Yan heard it and glanced at the people around him. "Do you have a cold?"
Meng Tang's nose was red. "I don't know."
Jiang Yan asked: "Which class are you in?"
Meng Tang didn't understand, but he still said honestly: "Yes, Class 12, Grade 2."
"good."
When he walked into the teaching building, there were suddenly more people around him. Jiang Yan could feel several more eyes on him. He turned his head and found that many classmates were staring at him with strange eyes, as if they were curious about why he was playing with that strange transfer student.
The whispers of others were like the continuous chirping of cicadas. Although Meng Tang was a spider spirit, he was not a complete fool. He reached out and pulled the corner of Jiang Yan's clothes, and asked in a low voice: "Am I annoying?"
Jiang Yan shook his head and said to him, "Don't worry about other people, you are fine."
Meng Tang's heart beat rapidly. He kept his dark eyes open without moving. It seemed as if the sun was dancing in his eyes, and his mood suddenly brightened.
Being praised by someone you like.
So happy.
Ginger salt likes me!
At the same time, Meng Tang made up his mind that if Jiang Yan didn't like spiders, he would accompany Jiang Yan as a human.
As long as it can be with ginger salt it's fine.
The sunlight danced on the window frame like living elves. Jiang Yan sat in the classroom, looking out the window casually.
The bell for the first class rang. Su Ze saw that the seat next to him was still empty. Before the teacher came in, he turned around and asked Jiang Yan, who was distracted in the back row, "Why hasn't Wang Xu come yet? Do you know where he went?"
Jiang Yan came back to his senses, his reaction arc was a little slow, "Wang Xu?" He raised his head and looked at the seat in front of him, his eyes paused, "I don't know either."
"Maybe something happened at home." Jiang Yan said.
Su Ze said "Oh", "In the past, he would tell me or you in advance if he didn't come to class. I didn't receive his text message."
Short message?
Jiang Yan suddenly remembered the photos Wang Xu sent him last night. Wang Xu said that his dog had mutated, and then there was no further news. At first, Jiang Yan thought the other party was playing a prank, so he asked and then didn't care anymore.
"Did you know that his dog mutated?" Jiang Yan suddenly said.
Su Ze was slightly startled, "He didn't tell me."
"No?" It seems that I only have time to send it to him, Jiang Yan thought, and then repeated the message sent by Wang Xu last night to Su Ze.
Su Ze listened carefully, "Could it be that what the expert said is true? There is a virus spreading around the world right now?"
"But having said that, I feel that the peach tree in my yard has grown incredibly fast recently." Su Ze said, "I picked some peaches and sent them to you some time ago, but when I went out this morning, I saw that the tree was full of peaches again. I thought I was seeing things."
Before Jiang Yan could say anything else, the teacher had already walked to the podium to announce the start of class, and the two of them stopped talking. After all, among the three people, only Wang Xu did not follow the classroom discipline and liked to be absent.
About halfway through the first class, Wang Xu came in from the front door, sweating profusely. He was panting, probably because he had run all the way here, but what was puzzling was that his clothes were a little torn, as if they had been chewed by a dog.
The teacher frowned and wanted to ask, "Why are you so late?" But when she saw the student's torn uniform at the door, she suddenly changed her words and asked, "What happened to your uniform?"
Wang Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I accidentally fell down."
The teacher couldn't help but say, "How can you still fall down when you are old? You are going to take the college entrance examination soon. Don't you know how to take good care of your body?"
Wang Xu grinned and said in a nonchalant manner: "I know, I know. Next time I will definitely master my skills and not fall down again."
"Okay, if you have any problems, go to the infirmary. If you have no problems, go back to your seat and attend class."
"Okay."
Wang Xu trotted back to his seat. As soon as he sat down, his deskmate Su Ze put up a book to cover his face, turned around and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?"
"Hey, a good student also talks nonsense." Wang Xu said jokingly, until he was glared at by the other party, then he put away his playful smile and said seriously, "Hey, it was the mutant dog at home that bit me. I left home in the morning without giving it food and it caught up with me. How could my two legs outrun its four... no, now it has eight legs, and then I got beaten up."
Su Ze looked strange, "You mean, you were beaten like this by a dog?"
"Hey, hey." Wang Xu was a little unhappy, and said with a twisted face, "That's not the point, okay? My dog has mutated and has six legs!"
Su Ze still looked at him strangely, which forced Wang Xu to seek comfort from Jiang Yan in the back seat. He looked at her with a pair of puppy eyes, "Woo woo Yan Yan, I showed you the photo, you believed me, right?"
Jiang Yan smiled helplessly, "I believe you, but I guess you have to take Su Ze back to your house after school today, otherwise he might not believe it."
Wang Xu snorted coldly, "Just trust me."
As soon as the voice fell, a smiling voice with a dagger hidden in it came to my ears, "Really?"
Wang Xu met Su Ze's eyes and shuddered inexplicably.
"By the way, some classmates said that you came to school with that transfer student today."
"Yes." Jiang Yan replied to Su Ze, "But why are you starting to be interested in these things?"
Su Ze shrugged, "The college entrance examination is too stressful, so I listen to gossip occasionally to relax."
"Okay." Jiang Yan had no way to refute, "That junior fellow is from the same community as me. We met in the community yesterday and chatted for a while."
Hearing this, Wang Xu interrupted and said, "It turns out that I was not wrong yesterday."
When Wang Xu and Jiang Yan parted ways in the community last night, he saw a figure passing by in the direction of Jiang Yan's home. It looked very much like the transfer student, but the figure was too ghostly, so Wang Xu comforted himself that he had seen it wrong.
"What did the transfer student say to you?" Wang Xu asked curiously, and without waiting for an answer, he guessed, "Did he come to you to make friends?"
Jiang Yan didn't hide it and nodded, "Yes, we are friends now. In fact, I think he is a good person. Don't be so prejudiced."
"Oh..." Wang Xu said in a long tone, "I don't actually have any ill will towards him, but now that I think about it, I always feel that things are a bit too coincidental."
"Why?"
Wang Xu stroked his chin and said as he thought: "Didn't I tell you that I first met that transfer student in the office?"
Jiang Yan didn't interrupt him, so Wang Xu continued, "The reason why I was so curious about him is that I heard him very strongly request to be transferred to our class in the office. But who would transfer directly to the senior class, especially with only a few dozen days left. The teacher compared his age and finally transferred him to the second grade."
"I even took a sneak peek at his profile card and found that his parents' information was blank. I had never even heard of the names of his elementary and middle schools. It was obvious that he was not from here."
"Then this transfer student dropped a note asking to be your friend, and now you're telling me you two live in the same neighborhood." Wang Xu felt like a famous detective, and his behavior was very realistic. He pushed up his nonexistent glasses and continued in a perceptive tone, "I seriously suspect he approached you with a purpose."
Jiang Yan showed an expression that said "you think too much" and said, "You also know my situation. I have no parents and no money. What good can he gain from being close to me?"
Wang Xu snorted twice after hearing this, and responded with an expression that said "you don't understand anything". Then he set his sights on the faintly visible white collarbone of Jiang Yan hidden in her school uniform, and said, "You really don't understand anything."
"You are so naive that you don't even know when you will be eaten by someone." Wang Xu said while nudging his deskmate Su Ze with his elbow, "Don't you think so?"
Su Ze avoided Wang Xu's touch and said with a bit of disgust: "Don't take me with you."
Jiang Yan raised his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Xu, "What on earth do you want to say?"
Wang Xu thought for a while, lowered his head and rummaged through his schoolbag for a long time. After a few seconds, he pulled out a crumpled comic book.
"This is something I have treasured for many years. Now I have decided that it is time to pass it on to you." Wang Xu showed a look of reluctance to part with it, and then quickly stuffed the comic into Jiang Yan's hand, while lowering his voice and earnestly admonishing, "This is something that only you and I know about. Don't let anyone else find out."
Seeing Wang Xu being so cautious and careful, Jiang Yan became curious about the mystery of the comic book in his hand.
Jiang Yan pressed the comic book under the math book and then flipped through it carefully. The cover and the content of the first few pages were quite normal. Two handsome guys were chatting in a room.
But as more pages were turned, the expression on Jiang Yan's face froze instantly.
In the cartoon, two handsome guys were chatting and then they started taking off each other's clothes until they were naked.
Jiang Yan looked at the two boys on the screen and at first comforted herself by saying that they were just going to take a shower and there was nothing strange about it.
However, on the next page, the two boys rolled directly onto the bed, and looking down, there were some passionate action movies comparable to those in Europe and the United States.
With a "swish" sound, Jiang Yan closed the comic book quickly and heavily. The sound was a bit loud and attracted the attention of some people around.
When the other students looked towards the window, Jiang Yan's face was already so red that it looked like blood was dripping out.
After feeling several burning gazes from all around, Jiang Yan lowered his head in shame again, and his head almost merged with the math textbook on the table.
"Oh my god, you really haven't seen this before, have you?" The culprit Wang Xu was still shocked by Jiang Yan's extreme reaction. "Su Ze has seen it, I thought you know a little bit about it."
"Looking at your reaction, have you ever seen a man or a woman?" Wang Xu continued to mutter.
If they weren't in the classroom right now, Jiang Yan would probably have hammered Wang Xu into the ground.
"What's the point of showing this to me?" Jiang Yan said this almost with gritted teeth. His face was very hot and he felt very regretful at this moment for taking the things from Wang Xudi.
Wang Xu smacked his lips, "Just wanted to tell you to be careful of that transfer student."
Jiang Yan said in an ambiguous tone, "I think you are the one I should be careful of."
"I feel that your dog hasn't mutated, but you have become a lot weirder." When Jiang Yan said this, Su Ze beside him also laughed out loud.
Wang Xu was a little angry and scratched his head, "How can you say that about your good brother? Don't blame me if you get scolded next time!"
Jiang Yan: “?”
It was soon noon. When the three of them went to the cafeteria to eat, they witnessed Meng Tang being deliberately bumped into by a few bad boys, causing the food plates to spill all over the floor.
The bad boys laughed at Meng Tang's school uniform stained with vegetable leaves and soup. One of the brave ones said arrogantly, "Oh, sorry, I didn't expect you to be so weak that you fell down when you were touched. Are you okay?"
Meng Tang's eyelids twitched twice. He knew that the other party's behavior was a provocation. Even spiders would be targeted by their own kind, and then a fight would determine the winner.
So the other party wants to fight with me.
The light in Meng Tang's eyes went out, and in an instant his eyes became very cold. He stood there motionless, with only his pair of pitch-black eyes staring at the person in front of him.
The bad kids didn't know what Meng Tang meant, but they just thought his stare was extremely annoying, so someone cursed, "Why are you staring at me? If you are sick, just go home. This is a school, not a mental hospital. It's disgusting that you're hanging around all day."
Meng Tang still didn't move.
The bully got angry again, "You! You want to get fucking beaten, don't you."
In the end, the other party just tilted his head.
"Huh?" The bad boy began to roll up his sleeves. "Okay, then we'll satisfy you."
At the same time, Jiang Yan, who witnessed all this, frowned. When he put down his chopsticks and prepared to stand up, Wang Xu, who was sitting opposite him, stopped him and said, "I don't think we can beat that transfer student."
Jiang Yan didn't say anything.
Wang Xu knew that he didn't believe him, and felt annoyed, but he could do nothing about it. "Sometimes what you see may not be the truth."
"So your intuition must be correct?" It was Su Ze who said this.
It’s not that Su Ze didn’t believe Wang Xu. In fact, he also felt that there was something strange about the transfer student, but he had no evidence, so he might as well trust Jiang Yan’s choice.
You are all eighteen years old and must be responsible for your own actions.
What's more, the transfer student was indeed being bullied by a group of people at this moment, and it was always right not to be a bystander.
