Chapter 27 I will protect you "Dang——! Dang——! Dang——!" As the self-introduction session of the morning reading class ended, the school bell rang, still with nine loud and long bells. The sweeping monk in the novel or the janitor in the school should not be underestimated. Fang Wei made a simple estimate. Every time a class starts or ends, he has to ring the bell nine times. In a whole day, the janitor must ring the bell at least 144 times... Sure enough, ringing the bell is the main job, and guarding the school gate is just a by-product, right? ! According to the schedule, the morning reading class should be over now, and the next step should be morning exercises. "Okay, that's all for today's self-introduction session. Everyone, follow me downstairs to line up for the morning meeting." Wen Susu is familiar with all the work processes within her responsibility. Her class is full of new students who have just entered school and are still very ignorant about junior high school life. She guides them step by step very carefully and patiently. The students in the class stood up one after another, and the sound of chairs being dragged was heard in the classroom. Fang Wei also stood up and looked at everyone in the class. It was not very obvious when they were introducing themselves on the stage one by one just now, but now when they stood up together, their heights were uneven, like bamboo shoots in the mountains after the rain. Some students developed early and were obviously taller, while some students developed late and looked no different from fifth or sixth graders in elementary school. Boys will have a noticeable voice change during puberty, which basically starts at this age. Fang Wei also seems to have entered the voice changing period since last month.
Of course, he himself didn't feel anything. There were no mobile phones these days to record his voices and study them. Moreover, his parents and Xu Cailing and Fang Yuansheng, who were with him day and night, saw his voice every day and heard his voice every day, but they didn't notice any changes. Just yesterday when he went back to his grandparents' house, his grandmother was surprised that his voice had changed. She thought he had a sore throat and asked him why his voice had become so much deeper and hoarser recently. Only then did he realize that his voice had started to change recently. Morning exercise class is an activity for the whole school. At this moment, the whole teaching building is quite lively, and the corridors and hallways are crowded with people. The freshmen in their regular clothes, like little kids, were squeezed in among the eighth and ninth graders who came down from upstairs. They were obviously taller and had completely different voices. Obviously, everyone is only two or three years apart in age, but now it looks like a primary school class has been opened in a junior high school... Puberty always comes so unexpectedly. "Here! Our class is here!" Wen Susu stood on tiptoe and waved to the group of students behind her somewhere on the track and field. Such a youthful and beautiful young teacher has attracted the attention of quite a few students. They must be envious as to why the teacher is not their own. Wen Susu was wearing flat shoes, but she was meters tall, which made her a very tall girl. Most importantly, she was very eye-catching. Even without standing on tiptoe, the group of confused new classmates in the class could see her at a glance. "Everyone remember, during the morning exercises every day, our class is located at the second to last on the left. On the left is Class 1, and on the right is Class 3..." "Then, everyone lined up in two rows, one for boys and one for girls, from shortest to tallest." Wen Susu stood at the front of the team, and everyone started walking towards the location she pointed, looking for classmates who were shorter than themselves, and then standing behind them. Of course, classmates who knew each other better preferred to stand side by side. Fang Wei and A Sheng stood in the middle of the boys' team, and Xu Cailing also stood in the middle of the girls' team. In fact, she was quite tall, and that was mainly to stand together with her two buddies! In addition to herself, she also brought Liu Zhiyi, whom she had just met, into the team. "Zhiyi, I'm taller than you! Stand in front of me!" "Ah." Liu Zhiyi was a calm person and naturally would not care about such a small matter. The main reason was that there were a lot of people around at the moment, and she felt a little confused when there were so many people around. She couldn't find her direction like a headless fly. Thanks to Xu Cailing, she didn't have to be forced to be sandwiched between two classmates she didn't know at all. Of course, you have to pay for what you get. Thanks to Xu Cailing, she received a lot of care, but the price was that she had to talk more with the chattering girl, and not only with her, but also with her friends... "Zhiyi, let me introduce them to you - Fang Wei and Fang Yuansheng! They are also from our island! We both live in Donghua Village!" Liu Zhiyi turned around and looked at Fang Wei and Fang Yuansheng in the boys' team.
She had just met Asheng for the first time; As for Fang Wei, if she was not mistaken, she had seen him yesterday morning. At that time, she was daydreaming in the yard and then she saw a boy jogging on the roadside not far away. He probably saw her at that time. The two looked at each other and she felt embarrassed to stay in the yard any longer. It was not because of shyness or something like that, but simply because of her social phobia. After all, it was a strange village with strange people, and she felt like an outsider who did not belong to this land... After all, it's more reassuring to hide in the house... In fact, she also wanted to go out for a walk and get to know the place where she now lived, but she didn't dare to do it alone, especially the curious and surprised looks of the indigenous people when they looked at her, which always made her sensitive heart feel quite embarrassed. Grandpa did offer to take her out for a walk, but after meeting the neighbors nearby, she couldn't help but go back to the house. If she followed her grandfather, the conversations between him and acquaintances would inevitably bring up her parents. Even if others were considerate enough not to mention it, the look of pity or sympathy in their eyes when they looked at her would still make her feel very uncomfortable. After all this time, she had moved into the village for several days and had never left home, except to come to this school where no one knew her or her past. It is difficult to guess what a girl is thinking. Many times, Liu Zhiyi can't even understand herself. ...Almost all the teachers and students in the school have arrived at the track and field stadium. The track and field field is not big, but fortunately there are not many teachers and students in the school. There are four classes in each grade, with an average of 40 students in each class. Including the teachers, there are only about 500 students in total, which is far smaller than the size of the primary school that Liu Zhiyi once attended. Across the sandy track in the athletic field is a simple podium in front of which is a large speaker playing the "Athletes' March", a classic piece of music that is played in many schools during assemblies, sports meets and other events. Liu Zhiyi's elementary school also played this when they gathered for morning exercises, which made her feel somewhat familiar. "Morning exercises? We didn't have morning exercises in our school before!" Xu Cailing was very curious about what this so-called morning exercises were like. "Didn't you do morning exercises before?" Liu Zhiyi was stunned when he heard her say that. "No, there is only one Donghua Primary School on our island, and there are only 20 to 30 students in the whole school." "...?" Xu Cailing calmly stated the fact that shocked Liu Zhiyi. "There are only 20 or 30 people in the whole school?" "Yes, the school is closed this year. Didn't you hear your grandfather say that?" "without……" "Zhiyi, how many students were there in your previous elementary school?" "About a thousand or so..." "Oh oh, more than a... a thousand people?!" Xu Cailing was shocked, but then she felt relieved. Sure enough, this was right. A primary school with more than a thousand students. This was the Shanghai she understood. It was amazing. Just one primary school had more than a thousand students... "Then does Shanghai also have...um, a Children's Palace? Yes, what is a Children's Palace?" "They are just some interest classes where you can learn calligraphy, dance, art and so on." "What about the Science and Technology Museum?" “Just some exhibitions…”
"so good." Xu Cailing listened to her and showed some yearning on her face, and then smiled with some envy: "Big cities are great. I've never been to a science and technology museum, and I don't know what a Children's Palace is. I've only calculated the distances between them in math books, and I often can't figure it out, hehe..." "..." The words of the girl of the same age in front of her touched something in Liu Zhiyi's heart. She opened her mouth and finally said in a low voice: "Actually, that place isn't as good as you think. This place... this place is pretty good too." "Well, our place is really nice, with lots of fun things to do! Have you ever been to the beach?" "Been there..." "What are you going to do, swimming?" "Just... take a look." "It's boring just to look at it. Let's go fishing together some other day!" "Is it okay without an adult?" "What are you afraid of? I will protect you! Fang Wei and A Sheng will also protect you. We are from the same island." "..." Liu Zhiyi remained silent for a long time. (End of this chapter)
