Chapter 13: Drunken honey setting sun (1)

Afternoon classes have begun.

Lu Jian'er hadn't had a full sleep yet, and lay down on the table, looking sluggish: "I can't do it, I'm so sleepy... When the teacher looks over here later, please remind me..."

Then, she actually fell asleep.

"Buzz..."

The phone in the drawer was vibrating again. Masako put down her pen and took out her phone. It was a text message from an unfamiliar number, but she could vaguely guess who that boy was.

"I'm sorry, I'm just so happy to meet you."

Not long after Masako put the phone back, another text message came.

"I still very much hope that you can join the student union and invite you as the president's assistant."

Except for these two text messages, I have not received any other text messages. To be exact, there is no text message from Duan Yousi, not a single one.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Masako sent a text message back to the boy: "Okay."

"Ah!" The sound of sneezing from behind woke up Lu Jian'er suddenly. She raised her head, looked left and right to make sure that get out of class was over, and then took a deep breath and held her chest.

"I was scared to death, I thought I was discovered by the teacher..."

It was Yang Xin who sneezed, and the girls around waved their hands in disgust: "Yang Xin, don't spit indiscriminately, it's very unhygienic."

"What's wrong with you sneezing? What's wrong with me sneezing?" After Yang Xin yelled, he sneezed four times at the girls.

"Ouch! Do you know that the flu has been very serious recently, and half of the students in the nearby Yi'an High School have asked for leave. I don't want to miss classes to make up classes. It's so annoying."

"I also heard the news yesterday that a student died in a school. It was a new virus. What was it called flu X on the news? It was super scary."

Yang Xin laughed loudly when he heard this: "Come! Come! Let the master infect you!"

"Oh, Yang Xin!" There was a commotion behind.

The class bell rang soon, and Yang Xin gave up.

Physical education class, the sky is clear.

After running to warm up, the teacher called the students to do a push-up test, but because Masako's right hand injury has not yet healed, she just watched quietly from the sidelines.

"Mo Yazi!" Suddenly, someone called her from a distance, and she felt helpless when she turned around, it was still that boy.

He held a form in his hand, looked at her shyly, and walked over quickly.

"It just so happens that our class is also a physical education class, so..." the boy said, and handed the form to her, "Because you agreed to join the student union, so I brought you the form that needs to be filled in to join the student union. You follow the meeting Long story short, he is also in your class anyway.”

"Understood." Masako responded without giving the boy a chance to answer.

"Oh, that's right." The boy quickly found an entry point for the conversation, "I haven't told you yet, my name is Xu Yitian."

"Yeah." Masako nodded.

"Sure enough..." Xu Yitian looked into her eyes and smiled, "You really are a very quiet girl who doesn't talk much."

Masako took the form.

"Uh, I don't mean anything else, I just said that you are not noisy at all, and you are very suitable to join the student union." After speaking, Xu Yitian stretched out his hand to Masako, "Then I wish us a happy relationship in the future!"

With a sound of "咻", the orange basketball flew between Masako and Xu Yitian at this moment, and the strong wind blew up Masako's bangs, and also slapped Xu Yitian's hand off.

Then, a tall and straight figure jumped between the two of them holding the railing with one hand. He landed with his back facing Masako and facing Xu Yitian, and put his hand on Xu Yitian's shoulder unceremoniously.

"Master the former president!" Wan Ye, who was wearing a red basketball uniform, had an unruly aura, and before Xu Yitian could react, he hooked his neck like a buddy, "I heard that you gave me one in the last student independent quality assessment. C huh, huh? C huh?"

Xu Yitian was panting, his face flushed red: "Wan Ye, the self-assessment of students' self-awareness...is to seek truth from facts, and it is based on the performance of students in self-study in the morning, and they are checked by special personnel every day!"

"What do you call seeking truth from facts?" Wan Ye didn't notice Masako behind him at all, and threateningly said with all his concentration, "You said I got a C last semester, and I'm a C this semester. How can you make our teacher A Mei feel so embarrassed? You let How can you, Wan Ye, be in such a situation? Huh? Even your Master Duan is an A, how can you let me drag your Master Duan down?"

"Duan Yousi reads every morning self-study, you are different..."

"What's the difference?" Wan Ye clamped Xu Yitian's neck tightly.

"Every time I... our observers saw you, you were kicking tables and talking loudly in the classroom!"

"That's morning cleaning! Also, let me tell you, your Master Duan is not reading, he is sleeping. Your Master Duan can get all A's while sleeping, and your brother Wan Ye gets a C for cleaning every morning." ?”

During the dispute between the two parties, Masako's cell phone rang suddenly, and the screen showed that it was a call from Duan Yousi.With her back turned to the maddened Wan Ye and the embarrassed Xu Yitian, she took two steps away before holding the phone to her ear.

"What did he say to you?" His voice came from the other end of the phone, accompanied by a group of noisy voices.

"he?"

"Do you want to talk about it if you like it?"

After hearing this unpleasant rhetorical question, Masako knew who he was referring to.

The wind blew the bangs on her forehead, and she said softly, "I just want me to join the student union."

"Ah! Here you are, Brother Wanye! Do you hear that?" There was an endless dispute behind him.

"Wan Ye is with you?" Duan Yousi heard Wan Ye's voice.

"He's looking for Xu Yitian." She replied.

"Give him the phone."

After half a second of hesitation, Masako turned around and shouted to the party where the commotion was raging: "Wan Ye!"

Wan Ye's noise stopped, and he raised his head suddenly: "This voice is so familiar." Then he turned his head wonderingly, his expression lit up when he saw Masako, he immediately let go of Xu Yitian, and pointed his index finger at Masako with a smile, "Sister Xue !"

"Your phone." Masako handed the phone to him absently.

Wan Ye shrank his neck, pointed at himself and asked, "Mine?"

"Ah."

Wan Ye pointed at himself and Masako back and forth again: "Your phone, my phone?"

"Listen first!" Afraid he would say anything more, Masako put the phone directly to his ear, and immediately retracted it after Wan Ye caught it.

"Hello, hello?" Wan Ye yelled into the phone uncomfortably, half a second later, he raised his head, his whole expression was extremely tangled, "Huh?"

Then he quieted down again with interest, glanced at Masako, walked aside with his hands in his trouser pockets, and listened to the phone seriously.

Xu Yitian managed to catch his breath, feeling very ashamed in front of Masako, suddenly he felt a puff of air in his chest, and he didn't say a word.

"Ha..." On the other side, Wan Ye listened, shrugged his shoulders and started laughing, then laughed more and more happily, turned around and walked back to return the phone to Masako, "He wants to talk to you." Turning his head and glanced at Xu Yitian, he whistled and left cheerfully.

Xu Yitian coughed for no apparent reason.

Masako looked at the back of Wanye leaving, and put the phone back to her ear.

"You tell him that it's okay to join the student union, but you will be responsible for the morning inspection of the third grade. Don't hang up the phone and talk now."

Duan Yousi's sudden decision caught people off guard, but Masako digested it quickly. She didn't hang up the phone, and met Xu Yitian's gaze and asked, "Who is usually in charge of the morning checkups in the third grade?"

Xu Yitian didn't realize it for a while, and he was stunned for a moment before he suddenly answered: "This...the student union has shifts every week..."

"Would you like to let me take care of this in the future?"

Xu Yitian immediately frowned: "No, Mo Yazi, it's very difficult to deal with the morning morning of the third grade, especially that class one, like Wan Ye just now, you saw it too, he..."

"Tell him, as long as you are in charge of that area, the whole class will be quiet." While Xu Yitian was chattering, Duan Yousi's slow voice lingered in her ears.

Masako said so.

Xu Yitian paused, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you calling?"

Duan Yousi didn't remind her this time.

"Friend." Masako answered him without any hesitation.

With a beep, Duan Yousi hung up, the voice was so short that Masako's heart beat faster.

2
The day after that, Duan Yousi did not contact her.

"squeak--"

In the evening, Masako walked to the door with her schoolbag in her hand. When she took the key to open the door, she turned twice but was blocked.

Oops, she was startled, and turned around a few more times, but it was still the same, the door was locked from the inside, and she couldn't get in from the outside.

"Mom!" She knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.

So she went around to look at the kitchen window on one side of the house. Through the glass, the TV in the living room flickered faintly. The woman was already asleep on the sofa covered with a blanket.

"Mother!"

She tried to tap the glass window again, but the woman didn't respond.After doing this three or four times, Masako lost hope. She hugged her schoolbag in her arms and stood leaning against the wall.

This kind of thing happened once or twice. The woman was forgetful and slept deeply. Sometimes she even forgot that she had her daughter. After falling asleep watching TV in the living room, she could not wake up until the next day.Knowing that women will occasionally get sick, the doors and windows of the house have been reinforced, except that the attic window was broken last time and it was barely repaired, but it is impossible to go up.

The weather was gloomy and the night was getting cooler, Masako kept her eyes closed.She needs rest now, needs to relax, she hugs her increasingly cold body - she may still need warmth now.

The next day, the weather was fine.

When Lu Jianer saw Masako from a distance, she found that she had added a beige coat over her uniform.

"Masako!" She took her arm from behind and was about to speak, but she broke away gently and turned her head to the other side.

"what's wrong?"

"Jane, I have a cold." Her voice came through the mask muffled, "Don't get too close to me..."

"Ah? You have a cold!" Jian'er exclaimed, "Why did you catch a cold so suddenly?"

"Kaka..."

Masako's face was half covered by the mask, her long black hair was loosely flowing, her skin was a little pale, and she exuded a sense of fatigue.

Her illness came at an inopportune time.

The classmates in the class were arguing lively, and when they saw her coming in wearing a thick mask, their expressions suddenly changed.

"Aha!" At the back of the classroom, Yi Xialing had already taken off her mask. Although her face was swollen, it didn't prevent her from gloating, "Look who this is, is this a turn of wind and water?"

After finishing speaking, she laughed together with those friends around her.

"Masako has a cold!" Lu Jian'er explained loudly regardless of the situation.

It was too late for her to stop it. After this sentence, the girls in the class stepped back worriedly and discussed: "Could it be X flu?"

"It's so weird. Didn't Mo Yazi feel fine yesterday? Today he suddenly contracted the disease. It's a bit like that flu symptom..."

"I heard that people will die!"

"Ah? Why are you in our class?"

The words of discussion became more and more sensational, Lu Jian'er didn't expect that these two things would be connected, so she couldn't help covering her mouth.

Yi Xialing, who didn't understand the situation at first, heard about it, and immediately put on the mask again: "Oh my god! How can you be so unlucky, Mo Yazi, don't infect our whole class!"

"Influenza X reported in the news is accompanied by forehead rash symptoms. Mo Yazi's forehead is smooth, but his complexion is relatively bad. It should be common flu. Don't make a fuss." Yu Qi, who was in the first row, looked at the physics book and said like an endorsement.

"I knew it..." Yi Xialing teased word by word, "Every time Mo Yazi has something to do, the first one to come out to rescue him is you, the squad leader."

"The morning self-study has started, please go back to your original seats and sit down." Yu Qi's tone was calm.

But Masako walked all the way, and the students were afraid to avoid it, and some even held their breath and whispered: "I thought about being sick and skipping class, but I don't want to die..."

"By the way, Mo Yazi." As soon as he sat down on his seat, Yu Qi suddenly turned around and called her.

Masako looked at him.

"Congratulations on joining the student union."

She nodded as a response.

"At noon, go to the conference room on the fourth floor. There will be a small meeting there. Some cadres will introduce you to each other."

"Ka..."

When Masako opened the door and entered the conference room, there were four or five students sitting on one side of the conference table, and Xu Yitian was standing next to the chair with a glass of water.And the girl sitting in the chairman's seat wore a ponytail, twirled the ballpoint pen between her fingers, and stared at Masako from the moment she entered the door with sharp eyes.

"I've heard for a long time that our Grai has transferred a beautiful woman with both ability and political integrity. It was finally recruited, but I didn't expect to see her true face." Some dissatisfaction with the behavior of the masks.

"Masako, what's wrong with you?" Xu Yitian asked with concern.

Yu Qi who was behind opened the window of the conference room and answered for her: "She has a cold."

"Flu?" The first reaction of other students was these two words.

"It seems inconvenient today." Masako suppressed her cough and said to Qi.

"It may be inconvenient for you, but it's hard for us to spare the time." The girl mocked her ignorance, and Masako glanced at her lightly.

"She is Wei Ru, the head of the learning department." Yu Qi opened all the windows, as if to find a reason for the girl's incomprehension, and added, "It's the one who missed you by one point in the English mock test last time."

"I heard from Xu Yitian that the condition for you to join the student union is that you want to be in charge of the third-year students' self-assessment project." Wei Ru ignored Yu Qi's words, jumped directly to the point she wanted to say, stared at Masako, and clapped her hands on the table, " Do you know that this is a project in my hand, and do you know that in my understanding, you are here for the position of head of my learning department?"

"Masako, sit down." In this gunpowder-smelling meeting room, Yu Qi's politeness added a cold humor, and Wei Ru's long-gestating aggressive aura was interrupted by the creaking sound of him pulling over the chair. , a cadre "puchi" laughed out loud.

"What's wrong?" Yu Qi didn't know why.

"Ah? Why are you sitting here?" A female cadre next to the chair said uncomfortably, "She has the flu..."

Xu Yitian took a sip of water, turned his eyes away from Masako, and didn't say anything for her.

Masako pulled away the leather chair directly opposite the chair and sat down. Although it was far away, it was facing her.

Wei Ru didn't care about these things. Her anger didn't seem to be developed in a day or two. She tapped the table with the tip of a ballpoint pen and looked at Masako mockingly: "It's okay for me to be ignorant, I can teach you. And now I The first thing you need to know is that you are not suitable for that project at all. Look, you don’t talk much, your physical fitness is not good, and the students in Class [-], Grade [-] are all aggressive, why are you?”

"Is it that difficult?" Masako asked in a calm tone.

Wei Ru sneered, and waved to Xu Yitian: "You tell her!"

"Indeed." Xu Yitian looked at Masako, "In the beginning, this project was approved to restrict Class [-] of the third grade, Masako, you should have heard about how difficult this class is to manage. Our weekly shift students In the past, they would be detained by a group of people, especially the fun group headed by Wan Ye, only Duan Yousi could control them, but Duan Yousi never cared."
