Society owes me a brother

The complex apartment that Yue Bin rented is not too big, and the combined upstairs and downstairs are only about 150 square meters.But for two people, it's just the right place to live - it doesn't feel crowded, and it doesn't feel empty because the room is too big.

Yue Bin carried Lu Chi's suitcase and went directly to the second floor, with Lu Chi following behind.I saw a total of four rooms on both sides of the corridor on the second floor, two bedrooms, a cloakroom and a bathroom.

Yue Bin stopped at the door of one of the rooms facing south, and said to Lu Chi with a smile, "This is your room, open the door yourself."

Lu Chi glanced at Yue Bin, stepped forward and opened the door——

The afternoon sun was mild and bright, quietly shining in through the windows.In a small room, all the views are unobstructed.A desk by the window, a bookshelf by the desk, a wardrobe by the wall, a double bed facing the desk, a white bedside table next to it, and a small decorative lamp on the table... …

All the furniture is placed in exactly the same position as Lu Chi's room at home, even the style of the furniture and the stripes of the curtains and sheets are similar.There are still a few books on the desk. Lu Chi glanced over and found that these books are the ones he has read frequently recently.In addition to the books and materials that Lu Chi usually likes to read, on the bookshelf there are also a few self-engraved CDs. White tape is pasted on the back, and the date and content are handwritten on it—all in the past six months, Yue Bin The scenery and people recorded when going out for fun.

Yue Bin leaned against the door, folded his arms casually in front of his chest, bent his right leg and leaned on his left leg, traced the outline of Lu Chi with his eyes, and said with a smile: "...do you think there is nothing new?"

"No." Lu Chi shook his head, walked around the room, and then pulled out the chair in front of the desk and sat down.The sun is shining brightly outside the window, and the clean streets and neat houses reflect more vivid colors under the sunlight.Even with the snow piled up on the roofs and along the streets, there is a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.

Lu Chi, who traveled across the ocean, suddenly felt a sense of relaxation: "It's good."

Holding the table with his hands in his hands, Lu said seriously, "It's all really good."

Yue Bin looked at Lu Chi's side face, and suddenly felt a sense of fullness.He hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "I think that if you decorate the room like this, you will feel more at ease when you sleep."

"I'm a little sleepy now." Lu Chi yawned involuntarily.

It was the first time to go abroad by plane. Lu Chi didn't know whether it was excitement or nervousness. Anyway, he didn't sleep well since the night before, and then he sat on the plane for more than ten hours in a row. All a little dizzy.

Yue Bin knew this very well, so he cut the long story short: "I'll pack your luggage for you, you can go take a shower first. By the way, do you want to put your clothes in the closet or in the cloakroom?"

Lu Chi didn't have a cloakroom at home before, and he wasn't used to getting up early every day and having to go to another room to change clothes.So he opened the closet casually, and said casually, "Don't bother me. I don't have many clothes, just put them in the closet—"

Lu Chi looked at the clothes in the closet full of clothes - spring, summer, autumn and winter are distinct, and suits, casual sports pajamas are all available.

Yue Bin shrugged his shoulders innocently: "When I bought clothes, I picked your size by the way."

After a pause, Yue Bin said again: "I have already washed the clothes, you can just wear them."

Lu Chi looked at Yue Bin helplessly.Yue Bin raised his hands in surrender: "We used to be like this. You are busy with work and too lazy to go shopping. Every time you really have nothing to wear, you drag me to the street to buy clothes. This time I will buy it for you directly. You are welcome. .”

Lu Chi took out a set of golden-yellow cotton pajamas with a cartoon portrait of a baby bear printed on the chest from the closet.Yue Bin smiled and said, "My mother bought it for us. Mine is Bambi."

Yue Bin pointed to the underside of the closet again: "There are also slippers. Matching."

Before Lu Chi could speak, Yue Bin said again: "Are you sleepy? I ordered a meal from a very delicious pizza restaurant nearby. I think it will be delivered soon. Go take a shower quickly, and finish eating the pizza later." Got jet lag."

Lu Chi smiled and shook his head.He pointed to the various furniture in the room, and said with a smile, "It's not easy to get these things, is it?"

After all, it is not the style of furniture in country M, so it must be customized.

However, Yue Bin raised his eyebrows with a smile, nodded and said, "It's actually quite easy. You know, just make a few phone calls and sign a few bills..."

Yue Bin stepped forward, took the pajamas in Lu Chi's hand, took off the clothes and put them back in the closet, and stuffed the pajamas back into Lu Chi's arms: "The quilts have just been dried, the new quilt covers, the pillows are Buckwheat husk, and the mattress is not that soft..."

Yue Bin babbled on, then suddenly changed the subject: "Do you want to see my bedroom?"

Probably because the people around and the environment were too familiar, Lu Chi was a little drowsy so that after hearing Yue Bin's words, he couldn't react immediately, and he was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and said: "good."

So Yue Bin walked to the next door with the suitcase in one hand and Lu Chi's shoulder in the other——

Without any suspense, Yue Bin's bedroom was decorated similarly to his room at home.

This time, before Yue Bin could speak, Lu Chi smiled and said, "Sure enough, there is nothing new."

"Because I'm also worried that I'll be homesick!" Yue Bin said softly.He took Lu Chi to visit the cloakrooms of the two of them.

Lu Chi asked curiously, "Why don't you put the cloakroom downstairs?" He thought it would be more convenient.

"Because the next door is the campus network." Yue Bin smiled and pointed to the next door: "Sometimes everyone will come over to discuss issues. If the study is placed upstairs, it will be more troublesome."

While talking, Yue Bin opened Lu Chi's suitcase, and the two of them put the clothes into the wardrobe bit by bit.During the period, Lu Chi also saw the shoes and other decorations that Yue Bin bought for him one after another.

Noticing Lu Chi's gaze, Yue Bin smiled and said, "Anyway, you will buy it sooner or later."

Lu Chi said directly: "I will transfer the total amount to you."

Yue Bin was well aware of Lu Chi's temper, so he said a number with a smile, and did not forget to add: "Give me a whole number. It's an errand fee."

Lu Chi corrected with a smile: "It's the phone bill and the signature fee."

The two looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly there was a "beep" doorbell downstairs. Lu Chi was about to open the door. Yue Bin got up and said, "It should be a takeaway. You go take a shower, then come down to eat and sleep. We will go tonight." Visit Stanford."

Lu Chi had no objection to his friend's arrangement.

So when he came down from upstairs after taking a shower, he was refreshed - he saw a lot of people, Zhang Yang, Xing Yuan, Cui Zhenyang, and several other high school students who were studying in university in Country M.

A large group of people sat on the sofa, laughing and eating the pizza that Yue Bin had just ordered.By the way, I also disliked the single variety of food and the small amount is not enough to eat.

Yue Bin never thought that these students would come to their house to clean up Lu Chi at this time - they didn't bring their own food and drinks!So he could only stand on the spot with his hips on his hips, and said angrily: "...then it's not for you to eat...it's almost enough, leave two yuan for Lu Chi...he has to go to sleep after eating...it's not a deal Will we meet again in two days, why did you come so early..." All plans were disrupted! ,

"It doesn't matter, there are still a few days before leaving school anyway. We can stay in California for a few more days, and we just happen to be here to play..."

"How can there be so many rooms for you to live in!" Yue Bin was so disgusted that his hair stood on end.

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "It's okay. There is a sofa here. We can still use the floor. By the way, don't you still have a dormitory at Stanford? You go back to the dormitory and give us the room..."

Yue Bin was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes.

Standing on the stairs, Lu Chi looked at the noisy classmates in the living room, and couldn't help but smile.

Several students turned around immediately and waved to Lu Chi to say hello.

We haven't seen each other for more than half a year, but we don't feel strange at all.Apart from the occasional video chats, Lu Chi felt that the biggest contributor should be Yue Bin, who can immediately liven up the atmosphere no matter where he is.

"Lu Chi, hurry up and eat pizza, and then go upstairs to sleep. Don't pay attention to these guys who don't know how to be considerate at all." Yue Bin walked up to Lu Chi with a pizza box and offered treasures, not forgetting to offer himself high school classmates stick a knife.

A group of students immediately protested.After joining NBDL, Xing Yuan, who became taller and stronger, directly "pressed" Lu Chi onto the sofa and sat down.Zhang Yang then complained: "Don't talk to Binbin, who is unreliable. You said that if you came to country M with us half a year ago, it would be fine if everyone didn't have time. Now that we have time, Binbin insists on letting us In a few days, let you acclimate to the environment in an unfamiliar California by yourself... It's too much."

Yue Bin glared at Zhang Yang unconvinced: "What is a person? Am I not a person?"

"That's not as good as all of us are here. Besides, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year, so it's good to take this opportunity to get together."

"What's so good about getting together with a group of elders?" Yue Bin rolled his eyes in disgust, and sat on the sofa with his chest in his arms and groaned.

But it is obvious that everyone is not familiar with him.

Xing Yuan and Cui Zhenyang said with a smile: "We came here specially because there is a game backstage in California. Then please go to the game together."

Lu Chi smiled and nodded.While eating the pizza that Yue Bin gave him, he said, "Speaking of which, I haven't watched a basketball game for a long time."

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Then you are blessed this time. I am not saying that the basketball atmosphere in country M is really much better than that in Huaxia. This is simply a paradise for basketball lovers. Even the basketball games of NBDL are very good. Wonderful."

As he said that, Zhang Yang looked at Xing Yuan and Cui Zhenyang with eyes full of connotation, and said in a particularly rich tone: "Especially Xing Yuan and Zhenyang, they are handsome and good at playing, but they are attractive to girls. Listen Said that the two of them now have their own fan club."

Xing Yuan didn't care, Cui Zhenyang immediately became a big red face when teased by Zhang Yang's words.Before he had time to refute, Zhang Yang said bluntly: "It's just a little bad. His cheating girlfriend also went to study in country M. Seeing Zhenyang's popularity, I don't know what to think, but came to annoy me again." .”

Cui Zhenyang was quite happy at first, but when he heard Zhang Yang's words, his face immediately turned cold.

Xing Yuan rolled his eyes, raised his leg and kicked Zhang Yang: "Can you speak, why don't you open which pot and lift which pot!"

Zhang Yang snorted, and said very bluntly: "It doesn't matter whether I can speak or not, the important thing is whether Zhenyang will eat the grass of turning back. It's still a bad turn-around."

Cui Zhenyang tightly closed his lips and refused to speak.Yue Bin and Lu Chi looked at each other, and immediately interrupted the conversation with a haha.

People who are jet-lagged are prone to sleepiness. Lu Chi sat on the sofa and chatted with his classmates for a while, but he felt his head was muddled, and his head was bit by bit, but he still forced to open his eyes.

In the end, Yue Bin couldn't see it anymore, and pushed him back to his room to sleep: "Here you are, I happened to lead this group of big eaters to make dinner. You go upstairs to sleep first, and we will call you when dinner is ready. By the way , you close the door tightly, the sound insulation of this house is not bad."

Lu Chi really couldn't hold it anymore, so he could only nod his head when he heard this, and went upstairs to sleep.

As a result, when he woke up, it was already one o'clock in the middle of the night.During this period, Yue Bin made dinner and came up to call for someone. Seeing that Lu Chi was sleeping soundly, he didn't make a sound, but left part of the dinner.He also poured Lu Chi a cup of hot water on the bedside table.

Lu Chi, who happened to sleep dry and thirsty, drank a glass of water and felt his stomach was empty.He simply tiptoed downstairs, wanting to see what else was in the kitchen.

In the end, I saw Yue Bin sitting on the sofa watching TV dejectedly, surrounded by several people lying in disorder, but there were no shadows of Zhang Yang, Cui Zhenyang and Xing Yuan.

Lu Chi asked curiously, "Where are people?"

A hand was put on his shoulder suddenly, which startled Yue Bin.Turning around and seeing it was Lu Chi, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm sleeping upstairs!"

The dove occupies the magpie's nest!Take all his room!I still want to drive him back to the dormitory!He is not going!

Lu Chi smiled and asked again: "Why don't you sleep?"

Yue Bin said angrily, "I'm not sleepy."

Lu Chi looked at Yue Bin thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to show me around Stanford?"

Yue Bin's eyes lit up, and he looked at the sky outside. It was pitch black: "It's too late. You'd better take a rest overnight, and we will arrange the schedule tomorrow."

"I feel refreshed after sleeping all afternoon. I want to go out for a walk. If you—" Before Lu Chi finished speaking, Yue Bin had already stood up in a hurry and dragged him into the cloakroom.

"I'll change my clothes and we'll be leaving right away."

Lu Chi also had to change out of his cartoon pajamas.

After the two changed their clothes, they tiptoed to the entrance.Yue Bin also took a bunch of keys in the drawer of the shoe cabinet.Lu Chi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What kind of key is that?"

"The key to my bedroom, and the key to the door on the top of the building." Yue Bin said with a smile: "We can climb to the top of the building and see the night scene of Stanford."

"Not a bad idea."

For some reason, Lu Chi suddenly thought of the past when a large group of people stole the keys from the school security office on his birthday last year, and then "smuggled" the blower and many things to the roof of the school.

"Where are we going first?" Lu Chi asked enthusiastically.

"We walk around the school. Wherever you are interested, we will go."

Lu Chi has no objection to this arrangement - anyway, he has never been to Stanford before, of course he listened to Yue Bin.

Yue Bin said with a smile: "I was a tour guide in the school last semester. I took tourists or children who came to visit in groups to walk around the school, and explained the history of the school to them."

Yue Bin said triumphantly, "I'm a professional."

Lu smiled.The two walked out talking and laughing.Yue Bin looked at the car parked at the gate of the yard and asked, "Let's drive there. The school is very big."

Of course Lu Chi has no objection.So Yue Bin went to drive very excitedly, and took Lu Chi for a walk after arriving at the school.

It was almost two o'clock in the middle of the night, but Stanford University did not fall into a deep sleep.Some places are still brightly lit, and some places have people gathering together to have parties. The dormitory buildings and laboratory buildings are also lit up. It seems that everyone's nightlife is very rich.

When Yue Bin led Lu Chi to the psychology building, he suddenly asked, "Have you heard of the Stanford Prison Experiment?"

Lu Chi was interested in psychology at the beginning, and naturally he had heard of this famous psychological experiment, but he didn't know the details of this experiment.Yue Bin said: "The lobby of this building is where the experiments were conducted. Do you want to go and have a look?"

When Lu Chi heard this, he was immediately interested.Yue Bin led Lu Chi into the psychology building.It was probably an occupational disease left over from working as a tour guide last semester. Yue Bin introduced the process of the experiment to Lu Chi while walking.Too heavy negative information made Lu Chi uncomfortable to listen to.But Lu Chi also had to sigh with emotion that this halfway psychological experiment really brought back the worst part of human nature.

When Yue Bin saw this, he didn't say any more, but said to Lu Chi with emotion: "...It's hard to imagine, right? So human beings are really the worst creatures. Especially when it comes to absolute power—"

Before Yue Bin finished speaking, there was a sudden sound in the hall.

"who?"

There was another crackling sound from the front, as if something had fallen over.Yue Bin turned on the light without any hassle.I saw two disheveled Western boys standing in the hall.One was blond and blue-eyed in the uniform of a prison guard, and the other was brown-haired and black-eyed and wore a long white dress that looked weird.Dressed up in such bizarre attire for such a special place, it's pretty self-evident what these two young men are doing.

Yue Bin's face suddenly turned black.

The brown-haired boy in a white robe with a pair of bare legs and more was also embarrassed when he saw the two people who didn't sleep in the middle of the night and suddenly broke into the psychology building.He subconsciously pulled at the corner of his clothes with his hands, so ashamed and angry that he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet.

But the other handsome blond guy whistled frivolously: "Two beautiful oriental boys, do you want to be together?"

Yue Bin's face was immediately darker than the bottom of the pot.The reprimand blurted out: "Matthew. Don't go too far."

Matthew raised his eyebrows disapprovingly. He was still sitting lazily on the chair with his clothes open, and said very openly, "It's just carpe diem. Why are you so nervous."

His eyes turned around Lu Chi's body, and there was an obvious surprised expression on his face: "This is your classmate? He looks much prettier than you."

"That's called handsome!" Yue Bin said with a look of contempt: "You poor vocabulary, what do you do with your brain, what do you pay for? Sooner or later, you will only work until you die of exhaustion!"

Seeing the instantly distorted expression of the blond man, Lu Chi, who was standing side by side with Yue Bin, smiled slightly.Looking at the blond boy in the prison guard uniform and the brown-haired boy in the white robe, he blinked thoughtfully and said suddenly, "You two... are you repeating that prison experiment?"

The handsome blond guy: "..."

Brown-haired boy: "..."

Yue Bin: "..."
