Chapter 40 Ether

"I'm going crazy! That's Senior Cui Yu! -"

There were a lot of people under the podium, especially the female students in freshman uniforms who were so excited that some even stepped on the seat footrests. Take a look at the handsome appearance of the top student in the senior year of high school.

Despite the dense crowd, Cui Yu's outstanding temperament still stood out. Two buttons of his neat shirt were unbuttoned, and he vaguely hugged his collarbone and white muscles, like a handsome dude who had lived in a high palace for many years.

Shen Zhao helplessly looked at his neighbor's sister Fang Yizhou. Within a few months of reporting to the school, he had already regarded the school as his home. It was more natural than standing on the balcony of his own home and singing loudly.

Just unrestrained! It’s just dissolute!

In other words, this is still a rotten girl.

One after another, the sound waves that were about to shock the eardrums just weakened, and another shout came from the ears.

"Ah, ah, Senior Ji Gang is here too, he's so handsome! I liked him so much when I was in junior high school. He especially looks like the character in the novel I'm following! -"

Fang Yizhou's star-studded eyes said: Yeah, yeah, yeah ! They are all handsome!

Another person nodded fiercely: "The same level back then are on the same stage today, and it's another love story about the school bully attacking the school bully!!! -

Shen Zhao was deeply impressed by Cui Yu, who was a student who was very popular in major universities back then. Ba, he is handsome and tall, has an elegant and generous personality, and has a wealthy family. There is a long line of girls who dream of pursuing Senior Cui Yu.

It is said that he has the potential to enter Tsinghua University and Peking University, and has attracted much attention. Unfortunately, he failed to perform well in the college entrance examination and ended up in B University. .

However, a skinny camel is better than a horse. I heard that he studied at Guomao University in college and went abroad for further study after his sophomore year. Now he has a smoother life than his father did in the first half of his life. He inherited the family business when he returned to China and reached his peak as an adult

. Ji Gang, who is it?

Cui Yu stood in Taichung with a dignified posture, and next to him stood a young man of about the same height but with a much inferior temperament. He wore a washed denim jacket loosely on his body, with his arms folded across his chest and his shoulders high. He was short and looked at the people on the stage with disgust. Zhang Sheng couldn't hide his depression. He couldn't understand what

Teacher Pei was thinking. Why did he sign him up to give a speech?

Drop out of school?

Or talk about your miserable first half of life, where you were reincarnated by the wrong father who was extremely irresponsible?

Or... you met your ex again during the entrepreneurial bottleneck, and he was more handsome and richer than him, and he focused on your own success and didn't care about others. Life or death?

Zhang Sheng felt that Cui Yu had occupied his position, so he walked up with sideways eyes and whispered a reminder: "Xueba, are you planning to stand in such a large space?

Cui Yu frowned and moved his lips while maintaining a smile: "You can choose to stand aside. "

"Tch...it's too much to show off to you. " "

Zhang Sheng was furious. If it weren't for completing this business, he would have gone home with a ticket and didn't want to say a word.

He imagined that Cui Yu, the two of whom had not seen each other for many years, would mention the things he had spent abroad these years. Anyway, after all, it was Cui Yu who begged not to break up.

But to hear what others said, I don’t remember dating you.

Zhang Sheng also experienced a short period of relief after breaking up, not having to face it again . The endless quarrels and suspicions were divided!

It was like breaking out of the cage. The future was full of freedom, and there was no need to bear the strong guilt for his mother.

Later, his sanity gradually returned and his mood became calm, but he found that he was not used to being alone. Life.

He had no one to accompany him, and he didn't feel any pain or pain.

Maybe it was Cui Yu, a strange guy who regarded him as a treasure.

The host came on stage and gave a one-minute opening speech to introduce today. Two outstanding alumni returned to school to participate in the school celebration. Coincidentally, the two seniors were classmates.

Fang Yizhou and his friend's eyes jumped, smelling the ambiguous atmosphere, and clicked their tongues: "Wow... classmates, what a treasure!" ! I heard from the teacher that Senior Cui Yu and Senior Ji Gang were in front of each other when they were in school, and they were inseparable in their senior year of high school. "

The other school girl looked unfamiliar, but from the scene where she and Fang Yizhou shook hands tightly and looked at each other, Shen Zhao guessed that this was her adopted sister's new best friend.

Shen Zhao covered one ear and laughed dryly. He couldn't help but ask: "Yi Zhou, what exactly is the attack you have been talking about? ..."

Before Shen Zhao could finish his question, Fang Yizhou's friend naturally showed an expression of looking at a weirdo and scratched his cheek: "Well...Yi Zhou, your sister is not a member of the same group, so why do you still have such a relationship with her? good? "

Nonsense. "

Shen Zhao thought to himself, who asked the two families to go around and change three communities, and they could all choose the floors and apartment types that were close to each other tacitly. I don't know if it was the first time they had a neighbor relationship. They discussed it with each other's parents. Good thing, she and Fang Yizhou have known each other since they were seven years old.

Shen Zhao is a senior in high school this year, and her adopted sister came to Maoming Middle School in Chushang. Before the little girl reported, her father called her home and asked her to help. The only thing I can do is take care of Yi Zhou, so that he doesn't get too naughty and waste his studies.

The age difference is only two years, but their social circles and familiar fields are very different. Shen Zhao loves literary novels, especially those that express the aesthetics of things. , in addition to light novels, there are also detective novels, and she is willing to dabble in them.

The high school department has always been able to choose to join clubs in the first half of the high school year. Maoming Middle School can be said to have gathered the best educational resources in Liaocheng City and was founded voluntarily by the school or students. There are probably more than a hundred clubs, and the top three among them have always been the club where Shen Zhao is the president - Lily Zhou Fans Association.

The name of the club comes from a novel written by the famous Japanese writer Iwai Shunji at the beginning of the millennium. It happened that Shen Zhao had the idea of ​​starting a club to recruit like-minded friends, so he asked Wei Lingling, who was good at drawing anime characters in his grade, to join forces. One had writing skills, and the other made posters and leaflets.

The two-dimensional dimension also originated from Japanese culture, so Wei Lingling could understand it. Shen Zhao had a preference for that book. After reading it completely, she suddenly remembered a girl in her class and planned to recommend it to the president.

"Shen Zhao, there is a girl in our class, she is like Hasumi..."

Surrounding the adoring female singer, the characters in the book imagine a substance called "ether", which is the so-called "ideal happy world".

Shen Zhao often talks about it, but never really understands the antonym of happiness . She had a real feeling.

After listening to Wei Linling's introduction, she quickly followed her to Linling's class to find the next member. Just before meeting her, Shen Zhao secretly held the leaflet in her hand. She was both looking forward to it and afraid. I can't believe that there are people in real life who are as miserable as Hasumi.

Wei Lingling searched the entire classroom but could not find the taciturn girl who had been bullied by some female gangsters for a long time. She asked anxiously, "Hey, have you seen Zhen Zhen?"

After failing once, Wei Lingling was not discouraged and talked to Shen again. Zhao went to find it a second time.

This time I didn't find it in the class, but in the girls' toilet of the first grade of Maoming Middle School.

A group of tall female students gathered around the pool, blocking the Zhen Zhen they were looking for. They held a plastic water pipe in their hands and connected it to the faucet. The other section spurted out cold water and poured it on Zhen Zhen's head.

The leading senior girl sneered and grabbed her long hair, forcing Zhen Zhen to raise her head. Water was poured down her throat. The abused person also had water in his nose, and his eyes were red and he struggled violently.

"No...ahem...don't..."

"Zhenzhen, what did I say? If you follow me, you have to be obedient. Why don't you slap her when I ask you to? That Sun Rong seduced my boyfriend! You listen to her Or do you want to listen to me?"

The speaker's eyes were open, filled with disgust for Zhen Zhen. Shen Zhao recognized them at a glance as a female gangster group in the third grade of high school. They skipped classes and went to bars all day long, and gathered small groups to run rampant in the school. , the father of the girl in charge seems to be a murderer and has been in jail for five years.

Wei Lingling pulled Shen Zhao: "...Let's go first."

They couldn't afford to mess with the daughter of a murderer, and her father was a gangster. The faculty and staff who heard about this also considered the girl's complicated family, and were afraid of killing her. When forced to do cruel things, even adults cannot suffer the same.

Shen Zhao also thought about leaving. She and Wei Lingling had left the women's restroom for a long time, and Zhen Zhen's miserable screams could still be heard through the door.

After Wei Lingling was frightened, she leaned against the wall and whispered: "Hey, it's just her. She's pretty, she can be a model. But she was targeted by these overlords. The leader, Hu Mulu, had a grudge against Lotus Sun, so she forced Zhen If you really slap Sun Rong in the toilet, if you don't want to, then I will torture you..."

She pulled Shen Zhao: "Let's go, President, I just think she is miserable, even worse than Lian Jian, but we saved her , will also be bullied by Hu Mulu."

"Ether." Shen Zhao's eyes were unfocused, and as Zhen Zhen screamed, she fell down and squatted outside the women's toilet, sobbing quietly.

She buried her head deeply between her knees, cried for a while, looked up with red eyes and said, "Lingling, do you think ether really exists?"

When the uncle from the security room rushed to the women's room, Zhen Zhen was crushed by Hu Mulu with his foot. Her head fell into the urine pool, and her face was stained with liquid. Tears condensed on her face, and her eyes were numb.

Even if someone rescued her, she was just a breathing dummy, and her little finger was broken off by those girls.

Shen Zhao will always remember the look in Zhen Zhen's eyes when she was carried into the ambulance. He looked at her and Wei Lingling across the crowd. There was no joy or gratitude for being rescued, but sympathy, as if to say: Do you know the end of saving people?

Zhen Zhen encountered more than these, as well as harassment from her stepfather. These were all told personally after she joined the club. In exchange, Sun Rong, who joined the club at the same time as her, also explained the whole process of being framed and isolated by Hu Mulu.

Wei Lingling looked optimistic on the surface, but burst into tears when she mentioned her own experience: "My parents were deceived into selling black tea, and it turned out to be a pyramid scheme. My family owes hundreds of thousands, and people want to pay for it every day..."

Zhen Zhen listened dully, and looked at To Shen Zhao: "President, what about you?"

Shen Zhao said nothing, lifted up her long skirt, revealing two simple iron prostheses, and Wei Lingling, who had known her for several months, didn't know that the four girls gathered together. The president himself is a bird with broken wings. His legs were left in the woodshed by his grandmother when Shen Zhao was one month old, and were gnawed to pieces by rats.

...

"Sister Zhaozhao, Senior Ji Gang is now a private detective! What a cool career! -"

Shen Zhao seemed to be frozen, until her consciousness flowed and she pulled Fang Yizhou and asked: "What? He is a detective?"

She needed to find it very much . A detective, because three of her former members all encountered similar dangers, especially Zhen Zhen, who disappeared.
