you are all star

Chapter 82 Retreat
A new day arrives accompanied by the singing of birds, the fragrance of flowers and the rising sun.

Even though everything on the new day is extraordinarily beautiful and full of infinite power and longing, Ke Neil is still struggling with the strange dream last night, looking forward to the night in gloom and confusion, so that he can Return the ball to the four white students, apologize to them, and then focus on preparing for the national youth basketball game.

Time ding dong ding dong, the sun turned from east to west, and night fell. Neil still went to the playground to gather at the time agreed with him and his teammates, and then went for a night run.

After everything was ready, he hugged the basketball from last night and went to the basketball court to return the ball to its owner.

He jogged to the basketball court, where every court was occupied and people gathered to watch Paulie and his buddies play half court.

Seeing that there were too many of them, Neil was a little worried, but he still took a deep breath and walked towards the four boys who occupied their ball last night.

When some people noticed that kid Neil was coming, they whistled loudly, as if this was a kind of message signal from them, and then everyone's eyes first moved to the whistler, and then followed Looking in the direction of their fingers, Neil walked towards Pauly's court swaggeringly alone with a basketball in his arms.

Paulie looked at everyone and smiled, and said in a low voice, "I never imagined that Neil would be so brave that he dared to return the ball alone. He wouldn't be afraid that so many of us would beat him up? But that's okay, next night he will occupy your basketball." The four of you are going to ask for the ball, and for the rest, we will withdraw according to the plan first, to create an illusion for his kid, and we will not stand up for the four of you."

Afterwards, Paulie quickly ran away with everyone, leaving only the four people from last night.

Neil thought that Paulie was being cowardly, but he was always cautious and thought it was not that simple, but he didn't care too much. He ran over with the ball and handed it to the four boys: "I'm sorry, four brothers , Thank you for the ball last night, my friends and I had such a good time, and now it is returned to its original owner."

But none of them took the ball from Neil and returned it to them. One of them slammed the basketball to the ground, tilted his head, and stared at Neil with a sneer: "Neil, it's easy to grab the ball, but Returning the ball has never been so easy.”

"So what do you look like?"

"What do you want? Let's think about it."

Neil looked at the four of them confidently, with a little bit of worry and fear in his heart, and he didn't know how they would make things difficult for him, but Neil had already realized that all of this was his fault, as long as they didn't go too far, he decided to do it for him. This is responsible to the end, but if they go too far, he will not let others slaughter him.

After they pondered for a while, they gathered together and whispered to each other: "Since his boy came to return the ball alone today, if we fight him, he is the only one who is reasonable. It seems that the boss's previous idea was wrong. It worked, but we can’t just take advantage of him like this, let’s talk about our opinions.”

One of the tall and thin white boys came up with the following sentence: "I personally feel that since he beat the four of us yesterday, we will not retaliate, let him suffer all our insults, and slip through the crotch of the four of us." , let’s forget about it, what do you think?”

In the end, all three agreed to this approach.

So, the four of them stood upright, looked at Neil with a sneer and sneered, raised their heads and pointed at the basketball lying on the ground with their fingers, and said in a commanding tone, "You, go and fetch the ball for me, then hold the ball, Kneel down and sneak under the crotch of the four of us, this matter is over, and the four punches that were beaten last night are also in the past."

After hearing this, Neil widened his eyes, glared at them, and yelled at them angrily: "No... I don't agree with your insult to my personality and dignity."

"Hey...you are still bargaining with us! This is not up to you."

"Your demanding request, even if you beat me up, I will not agree."

Hearing what he said, the four white boys became a little anxious, and really wanted to beat Neil up, but in this way, what was reasonable would become unreasonable, so the four of them had no choice but to discuss the countermeasures again.

"Otherwise, we'll take turns holding him down."

The four of them rediscussed how to deal with Neil, but one of the shorter Caucasian boys had such worries: "But what if he resists and beats us up?"

"This idea is also correct. We discussed letting him slip under our crotch before. With his expression and attitude, he must definitely resist. But what should we do?"

"I think so, since he punched the four of us by himself last night, and I punched him sixteen times by the four of us, and finally let him single-handedly challenge the four of us in basketball. If he wins, this matter That's all, if he loses, we'll hand him over to the boss."

"It's a good idea. I think he will agree, but if he beats him, will he sue the school or the teacher?"

"It's already dark right now, and the light is not very good, so it's hard for people to see. Besides, I think he's a more backboned guy, so he shouldn't be able to."

"Okay, then do as you say." The three white boys looked at the shortest white boy and expressed their opinion.

They rediscussed the countermeasures and looked at Neil who was standing there blankly. After telling Neil the other treatment method that he had just considered, Neil actually agreed. It seemed that he would rather be knocked down with dignity than let Since then, I have no dignity and can't hold my head up.

Paulie, Peter, and his group of schoolboys who don't read well all day long just want to bully blacks and female classmates. They can't wait and don't know what the four of them are doing. They want to rush over to replace them. Four solutions, but today Neil came alone, he didn't dare to put on a show, so he had to observe in secret.

Pairs of eyes stared at Neil and their four brothers intently.

Suddenly the shortest boy among them clenched his fist and gave Neil four punches. He gritted his teeth and raised his head: "I made you crazy, I told you to beat me up last night."

Four punches were punched in the face, and Neil's face was already bleeding.

But it wasn't over yet, the tallest white boy clenched his fists and punched Neil four more times.

Paulie and his brothers, who were watching secretly, saw this scene, and it seemed that there was no such scene that they had been told before. Why did they take turns beating people?
So, they stopped hiding and rushed over in a swarm.

"Trouble... you guys, hurry up! There are still... eight... fists." Neil held back his tears, as if he wanted to show a little man who bleeds but doesn't shed tears.

The other two white boys who didn't hit, saw that the boss and brothers were rushing over, so they hit one on the left cheek and the other on the right cheek. As soon as they finished four punches, Paulie and his brothers rushed up, looking at their faces with blisters. With a swollen face, bleeding from the corners of his mouth and nose, but still clenching his teeth, Neil, Pauly and the brothers, who had never shed tears, were all dumbfounded and asked the four of them in a reproachful tone: "You four What are you doing? He was beaten up like this by you, you just wait for bad luck tomorrow!"

"We can't blame us for this, he asked us to fight."

"Hey... you four, all my plans have been messed up by you." Paulie looked at the four of them angrily and shook his hands fiercely.

Neil wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and nostrils, and wanted to cry, but his parents taught him that crying would not solve the problem at all, but would make others despise you and despise you, so he couldn't cry.

"You...you... finished the fight? Next...the next...you...four...challenge...me." Neil's voice was low and deep due to pain, and he smiled intermittently, very strong, Optimistically speaking.

I usually see Paulie with a vicious look, but today I was shocked by Neil's spirit, because if it were him, I'm afraid he would have been beaten to the ground long ago, crying, crying for his father and mother, but his boy But even though tears were rolling in his eyes, but not a single tear flowed out, this kind of person deserves respect.

After Neil finished speaking, he pushed Paulie and the onlookers with his hands, chattering intermittently: "You... let's go, I'll go... to pick up the ball, I... can't... like this ...fall down!"

"Make way for him..." Paulie looked at Neil and ordered loudly.

Make way for him one by one.

Neil hunched over, endured the severe pain, picked up the ball and handed it to the four white boys, saying, "Brother...brother, this is...your... ball, last...night, right... Hold on, take your... your balls, occupy them... and play all night, now I... singled out you... four, if I... win, I beg...you...let me go."

"Did you four hear that?" Paulie growled and glared.

The four of them were frightened and hurriedly nodded slightly in fear.

"Then... us... who... will play first?" Neil asked in a pitiful and low voice.

"You first……"

Everyone present was moved by Neil, but it seemed that Paulie didn't speak, and they didn't dare to say a word of mercy easily, so they could only step aside to make room for Neil and the four brothers.

Neil seemed to be in severe pain and couldn't jump up. He slightly raised his head to look at the basket, and a beam of light was shining on him from the basket. He smiled and said in a dumb voice: "Grandpa, I know I was wrong, bless you!" Me, I made two shots, and it was my fault."

Neil silently finished playing the dumb words, took the ball with his right hand, leaned forward slightly, looked directly at the basket, and threw it with one hand, and the ball went in.

Paulie and the brothers all applauded for him.

The onlookers picked up the basketball that had bounced around them and lightly threw it to Neil.

Perhaps because of his courage and optimism, he moved God. He picked up the ball, looked at the basket, closed his eyes in fear, and threw the ball just like before. A rainbow bridge was built between the hand and the basket, and the ball went straight into the net. He had already shot, but he didn't dare to open his eyes.

He didn't open his eyes until Paulie and his brothers applauded in admiration.

The four white boys looked at Neil and said with conviction, "You can go!"

Neil bent over and wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and nostrils with his hands again. With a puffy face, he smiled at everyone with an unnatural smile, and walked carefully through the crowd.

Seeing the hunched figure, Paulie looked at his brother and conveyed his password: "Remember it for me. From now on, I will cover Neil. If any of you dare to bully him again, you will be my enemy, Paulie. Do you hear me? ?”

"Received, boss!"

Neil didn't dare to go to the playground to find his teammates and Lavender now, so he had to lower his head and endure the pain to go back to the dormitory.

He walked all the way, and he still heard the old man in his dream last night saying in his ear: "Son, well done, I did not misunderstand the person, your parents and I are proud of you, you are our little one." hero."

Neil slightly raised his head to look at the starry sky, pursed his lips and smiled, although both sides of his face were swollen into big fat people, but he still retreated from the body, he was still not killed, and he still lived with dignity in the future.
