After the team leader finished cleaning, he called Lin Xiaoran to take out the trash.
Lin Xiaoran agreed, pasted the review paper back on the wall, and picked up two trash cans to go out.
Nan Xiangwan couldn't help complaining, "Team leader, it's too easy to take out the trash. You don't let Lin Xiaoran sweep, mop, or wipe the blackboard, but let him take out the trash. Isn't that a waste of labor?"
Hearing her words, Lin Xiaoran looked indifferent. He stretched out the two trash cans and said generously, "It's okay, let's change them, and you go take out the trash."
Nan Xiangwan's face turned green with anger, "I'm almost done cleaning, and you just said to change it with me, and you don't even need to take out the trash? It's a good idea!"
"No more calculations!" After Lin Xiaoran finished speaking, he took the trash can and went out.
Nan Xiangwan made a face at his back, and continued to bend down and mop the floor. In fact, thinking about it the other way around, taking out the garbage is not an easy task. Not to mention that the classroom is on the fourth floor, it is very troublesome to go up and down the stairs. The location of the garbage station is very far away, and there are no lights along the way.
"I really miss the days when there was cleaning." Nan Xiangwan couldn't help feeling emotional.
"Bao Jie? He's not dead, why miss him?" The team leader who had already picked up his schoolbag and was about to leave asked back.
Soon, Lin Xiaoran came back after emptying the trash. He is tall and has long legs, and he is used to stepping up two steps at a time. During the training of the sports team, climbing stairs is a routine item. Going up and down the fourth floor and running up a few steps is nothing to him at all. Difficult. What he was more worried about was that there was no one in the classroom, and it was very easy to lose things. This is how the USB flash drive that was placed on the table before disappeared. After that, he would always pack his schoolbag before going on duty, so as to avoid the things left on the table being stolen by others. But even so, he was still worried. If someone thought that there was no one in the classroom and turned off the lights and locked the door, how would he carry his schoolbag and do his homework
Lin Xiaoran quickly went up to the fourth floor. His footsteps didn't stop at all, instead, he walked faster and faster. He didn't heave a sigh of relief until he confirmed that there was a white light scattered at the door of the classroom.
The teaching building at night is extremely quiet, the lights in the corridor are all broken, and there is boundless darkness as far as the eye can see, with towering high walls on both sides, walking in it seems to be walking through an unknown cave, every move carries echoes, depressing And terrible.
He stepped into the classroom, not wanting to be startled by the sight in front of him.
Nan Xiangwan was still in the classroom. She lay prone on the desk, propped her upper body on her elbows, raised one foot back, and swayed from side to side, as if she was looking at something. Hearing the sound, Nan Xiangwan turned this way, her long black hair naturally fell from her shoulders, making her face whiter against the background.
Seeing him, Nan Xiangwan frowned slightly, and his tone was filled with disgust. The simple sentence seemed to be like the eighteen bends of the mountain road, with ups and downs. It sounded special, "Why did you come back? I read the paper twice. gone."
Lin Xiaoran did not answer her question, but asked in confusion, "Why haven't you left yet?" The team leader assigned each team member a job, and as long as they finished their own part, they could leave early. Everyone wanted to leave early, so he left the task of taking out the trash to him. He thought that this time he would come back like before. In the empty classroom, only pale lights and his schoolbag were left. Who knew that he saw Nan Xiang night figure.
"I, I..." Asked by him, Nan Xiangwan looked away, frantically put the paper back into his schoolbag, and explained vaguely, "I didn't have the key to the house, so I can't open the door if I go back early."
"Oh."
Lin Xiaoran agreed and put the trash can back to its original place.
Nan Xiangwan quickly straightened her hair and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. God knows she didn't say that when she faced the group leader just now. The group leader said that they could go home after dragging the floor, but Nan Xiangwan said that Lin Xiaoran hadn't come back yet, so what if he lost something.
The team leader disagreed, "Don't worry, no one will take a broken schoolbag. I've never heard of anyone throwing something away." Seeing what she wanted to say, the team leader waved his hand impatiently, "If you want to keep it, just keep it. , I'm leaving, remember to turn off the lights and lock the door."
In fact, she didn't want to stay, but the group leader just left. If something was lost, wouldn't it all be blamed on her? Nan Xiangwan had no choice but to stay in the classroom and wait for Lin Xiaoran to come back. She didn't want to waste time, so she took out the paper to review. She complained towards Lin Xiaoran's back, a scumbag is a scumbag, taking out the trash so slowly made her unable to go home.
"I'm leaving." Before Lin Xiaoran could reply, Nan Xiangwan picked up his schoolbag and walked out.
With a sound of "pop", the lights at the back of the classroom went out, and soon, the lights in front also went out, and the long corridor instantly turned into a dark pocket. Feeling flustered for no reason at night, her feet seemed to be under a spell, and she didn't dare to take another step easily.
At the same time, Lin Xiaoran withdrew from the classroom, padlocked and snapped the lock in one go. He turned around and bumped into Nan Xiangwan.
"Ouch." Lin Xiaoran yelled, "Why don't you leave?"
"You care about me?" Nan Xiangwan asked back.
Lin Xiaoran had no choice but to avoid her, but before he took two steps, the corner of his clothes was suddenly grabbed by Nan Xiangwan. "Wait a minute." Her soft voice sounded behind her, small, light, like a feather, sweeping across his heart imperceptibly.
Lin Xiaoran stopped in his tracks and asked, "What's wrong? I left something? I don't have the key."
"No..." Nan Xiangwan's voice lowered. She swallowed unconsciously, looking very embarrassed, "I, I, I..." She hesitated for a while, and finally gritted her teeth, "I'm afraid of the dark." She He has always been aloof and arrogant, if he is not really afraid, he will never say it to make people laugh.
"Hahaha..." Sure enough, Lin Xiaoran laughed unceremoniously, and said sarcastically, "How old are you, are you still afraid of the dark?"
Nan Xiangwan raised her head. It was pitch black in front of her eyes. She couldn't see where Lin Xiaoran was, so she could only stare in the general direction. She deliberately raised her voice to hide the fear in her heart, and asked sternly, "What? I'm afraid of the dark. Strange? Everyone has something to fear!"
"Okay, okay." I don't know if I'm afraid of her nonsense attitude, or I think what she said has some truth, Lin Xiaoran said as if begging for mercy, "You drag me, let's go."
Nan Xiangwan grabbed Lin Xiaoran's clothes and slowly moved towards the stairs step by step. When he got down to the third floor, Nan Xiangwan regretted it a bit. Lin Xiaoran talked too much, so he walked and said a few words, rambling It's even scarier than Tang Seng. It's about to turn a corner. It's on the third floor. The floor here is a bit warped, and there's a hole in the floor there.
Nan Xiangwan's head grew dizzy when he heard it. If Lin Xiaoran was not tall and couldn't tell where his head was in the dark, she really wanted to gag him.
When approaching the first floor, Lin Xiaoran intensified, "Be careful, don't let go of the railing, the steps here have become higher, slow down, it's time to turn, hold on, there are still three final steps..."
Nan Xiangwan finally couldn't help it anymore, "Okay, I'm just afraid of the dark, and I'm not mentally retarded, don't treat me like a child." As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Xiangwan's steps took a long way, and she stepped on the ground, " "Boom" and slid on the steps, the tailbone ruthlessly poked on the hard floor, bringing a burst of severe pain that swept across the whole body.
"Ah!" Nan Xiangwan screamed.
Hearing the voice, Lin Xiaoran immediately turned around and came back to help her. Nan Xiangwan screamed again, with a crying tone in his voice, "You stepped on my hand!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Lin Xiaoran apologized repeatedly.
When Nan Xiangwan stood up, her head was still numb. Her butt hurt, her hands hurt, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her back was also cool, probably soaked in sweat. Nan Xiangwan tried to move, and the painful part seemed to have experienced a tsunami that shook the mountains again. The pain was like waves hitting her fragile nerves layer by layer.
"Are you okay?" Lin Xiaoran asked.
"What do you think?" Nan Xiangwan said angrily.
Because of a fall, Nan Xiangwan felt a dull pain every time she took a step. Sitting on the bicycle was like sitting on a crater, and she couldn't help grinning. When the pain was the worst, Nan Xiangwan even thought, should he go to the hospital? She quickly rejected this idea, don't do it, with her current grades, it would be a burden to sleep a little longer, let alone go to the hospital to see a doctor.
Before opening the door, Nan Xiangwan took a deep breath, thinking that no matter how painful it was after entering the door, he would try to make his walking posture look more natural, even if his mother asked, he would not let go.
It turns out that Nan Xiangwan was overthinking. When Guan Xiumei saw her, she scolded her, "Why are you coming back now? I thought you weren't coming back!" She put her hands on her hips and sneered, "That's right, if I were you , I don’t have the face to come back! Tell me about you, I happily called your class teacher, and the result? I can’t believe it, the class is fifty-four, the grade is four hundred and twenty-one, are you worthy of me?”
Exams, grades, rankings. Nan Xiangwan almost forgot about it. After all, she hadn't been exposed to high school knowledge for many years, and it was reasonable for her to fail in the exam when she was suddenly asked. She believed that as long as she reviewed a little, she would be in the top ten in the class, not to mention the top ten in the grade. No problem. But how should I tell my mother these words
As Guan Xiumei was talking, she burst into tears. The tears seemed to take away all her momentum. She suddenly fell down on the chair, like a mountain collapsing in an instant. In Guan Xiumei's impression, Nan Xiangwan had always been the top student in her class, and the time she was most angry was only because Nan Xiangwan dropped a few places. Especially after entering a key high school, her grades are thriving, starting from around 100 in the grade, and moving forward bit by bit. When she knew that Nan Xiangwan hadn't been admitted to the rocket class, she tried her best to suppress her emotions. She told herself over and over again that the child had tried his best, so stop blaming her and find a way out of other aspects. No, as long as you are making progress, there is still hope.
But now, all hope is gone.
At this moment, the door lock made a sound, it was Nan Yuemin who came back. Guan Xiumei regained her energy all of a sudden, ready to go like a tigress. With her hips on her hips, she yelled at Nan Yuemin, "You still know how to come back! You don't even look at your child's grades! You never Don't worry, it doesn't matter what the child gets in the exam!"
Nan Yuemin, who had just entered the door, was exhausted, and was suddenly scolded, with displeasure immediately appearing on his face.
A new round of quarrels is imminent.
Nan Xiangwan sighed, and said impatiently: "Stop talking! I know it in my heart, all this is only temporary, and you will know it during the final exam."
She glanced at her father hesitantly, then turned and went back to the bedroom.
"Look at her, what kind of attitude is this!" Her parents were still arguing outside the house, and Guan Xiumei complained to Nan Yuemin, "If you lose ten or twenty places, no, I will admit it even if you lose one or two hundred places. It's counting down! How can I accept it! I said a long time ago that I would find a relationship to join the rocket class, but you just want to stop it."
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Nan Yuemin, who was originally submissive, also lost his temper, "You know how to find a relationship. Her level is there. Could it be that she can soar into the sky after entering the rocket class?" He snorted coldly, don't Said meaningfully: "What exactly do you want to do, I don't know yet?"
Guan Xiumei heard Nan Yuemin's implication, wiped the tears on her face with her palm, and asked stubbornly, "What do you mean?"
"That's what it means!" Nan Yuemin, who had already run out of patience, pushed back very forcefully.
With a clanging sound, Nan Xiangwan hugged his body unconsciously, and carefully huddled under the quilt, as if he could isolate himself from the world and stay away from all disputes. It is strange to say that now that she has grown up, she has been to many places, met many people, and even experienced some fatal scenes, but when she suddenly returned to such a scene, she still felt an indescribable palpitation , as if the end is coming.
