little turtle in the reeds

Xu Yiran stared at the cracks on the phone screen in a daze.

It turns out that there really is a crow's mouth.The phone is turned on, but the screen that was intact yesterday has cracks today.Xu Yiran really wanted to slap his hand.What else can I do, hurry up and fix it.

He secretly took his father's laptop, searched for Apple mobile phone repair points on the Internet, took the pocket money he had saved for several months, and hurried out.

He was a little dizzy when he got there. On the bustling commercial street in the city center, several mobile phone repair shops opened in succession.He looked at it several times, hesitated for a long time between the two stores with the Apple logo, and chose the one with the bigger logo, thinking that it should not be a fake repair shop with the Apple logo hanging so blatantly and in the city center. up.

After entering, the clerk showed him the mobile phone enthusiastically and told him that he needed to change the screen, and the price was not expensive, 998 would be enough.Xu Yiran almost turned his head and left, 998 is enough to buy two non-brand machines!

"Cheap, cheaper, okay?" Xu Yiran seldom buys things, let alone haggle over prices. As soon as he opens his mouth, the clerk on the opposite side will know that he is worth a lot, and he will play Tai Chi with him kindly, but he will not lose a cent.In the end, he became anxious, took out his wallet, and took out all the pocket money for three months, including bits and pieces of steel coins, a total of 521—a rather festive figure.

"No, no more." Xu Yiran said, smashing the can, "Can you, can, cheaper, a little?"

The clerk let out a "puchi" in his heart, saying that he was lucky to meet a fool.This Apple is still under warranty, and it can be done for less than two hundred by simply changing the external screen.

The clerk took the phone and sighed: "Okay, I'll give you the remaining 400 yuan."

Xu Yiran thought he had met a good man, so he quickly thanked him.The clerk told him to pick it up in an hour.Xu Yiran heard that some shops would dismantle the parts and replace them with counterfeit ones when repairing mobile phones, so he didn't dare to leave, so he just guarded in the shop.After a while, customers came, and Xu Yiran moved the stool to the corner because he was afraid of blocking other people's way, but his eyes never left the clerk.When the clerk walked to the left, he followed his eyes to the left. When the clerk walked to the right, he followed his eyes to the right. The clerk went into the small room to get the parts, and he waited eagerly.

Clerk: "..." He originally wanted to secretly replace the casing of this apple with a fake one, but Xu Yiran stared at him convinced.Come on, the three hundred extra money is already in hand, so I don't care about it with you.

When the screen was finally replaced, Xu Yiran heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to go out with his mobile phone, he saw an incoming call.It was the number Yuan Ye called last night.

Xu Yiran was a little guilty, touched the screen of the phone, it was shiny, and it looked like it had been changed, thinking that it was lucky that Yuan Ye wasn't there, so he couldn't see it, so he picked up the phone while walking outside.

"Xu Yiran." Yuan Ye said unhappy, "I hung up on my phone last night and turned off the phone, how do you know to answer the phone now?"

Xu Yiran quickly thought about the reason: "I, I'm sick." He was immediately convinced by the reason he found, and then said very logically, "No, turn it on, there is radiation."

But obviously Yuan Ye didn't buy it: "Heh, you still radiate, you are quite capable."

Xu Yiran timidly said: "Really."

"I haven't seen you for one night. You're amazing, why don't you pretend to be pitiful?" Yuan Ye heard that Xu Yiran was scared, but his voice was still cold, unmoved at all, as if he had changed, "Look up, look Opposite you." He spoke like an order.

Xu Yiran's heart was beating wildly, and he slowly raised his head, and Yuan Ye, who was on a skateboard across the road, came into his vision little by little.He shivered and almost dropped his phone again.

"Stand still." Yuan Ye said fiercely, and when the red light turned green, he stepped on the skateboard and swished over, "Xu, Yi, Ran." He said word by word, "What are you doing here?" What? Didn’t you say that you were sick?”

Xu Yiran had the guts to tell an insignificant lie. He never thought he would be caught so easily, and he was so embarrassed that he had nowhere to put his hands and feet.

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Yuan Ye casually glanced at the sign of the repair shop behind him, and frowned: "The phone is broken? I just said that this broken phone doesn't work." He took out his iPhone 7 Come out, "This is for you, and that is for me."

Xu Yiran originally wanted to return the phone to Yuan Ye when he was going back to school, but looking at it now, he wanted to return the phone in his hand, and Yuan Ye could give him his new phone right away, of course he couldn't take it. He quickly shook his head and said, "It's already been repaired."

"Fixed?" Yuan Ye said, "So fast? Where is it broken?"

Xu Yiran: "Yesterday, no, be careful, I dropped my phone, and the screen was cracked, cracked."

Yuan Ye: "The screen is broken?"

"That's right, the screen is broken."

Yuan Ye was puzzled: "Then why did you turn off the phone all night? I thought something was wrong."

Xu Yiran didn't have the nerve to say that he had a heart full of twists and turns, and quickly changed the subject: "Mobile phone, changing the screen, it's so expensive, do you want it, go, stick it, tempered glass."

Yuan Ye didn't take it seriously, and asked casually, "It's quite expensive, how much did it cost?"

"Five hundred, 21." Xu Yiran said, "I, counter-offer. Clerk, I want less, four hundred." He was a little proud when he mentioned this, and added excitedly, "It's repaired, when I look at it, I'm afraid , the parts were replaced by someone.”

Yuan Ye was taken aback: "520 one?" He almost thought that Xu Yiran had learned to be clever, and took the opportunity to confess to him, but seeing that Xu Yiran was very serious, he thought about it, and swallowed everything he wanted to say.

Xu Yiran felt that he had saved money, so he wanted to be praised, so he emphasized it implicitly: "Originally, I wanted to, 998, and I will return it."

"Oh...that's amazing." Yuan Yezhi said that the warranty period of the mobile phone seems to have not expired - even if the warranty period has expired, the casing is not damaged, and the screen is replaced, two hundred is enough. Which store is so black-hearted and slaughters people? so ruthless?The cottage maintenance point, did not run away.

"Where did you cultivate?" Yuan Ye asked.

Xu Yiran pointed to the shop behind him: "It's right here. Why, there is a problem?" He suddenly became nervous and checked his phone subconsciously, but he couldn't see a one, two, five.

Yuan Ye waved his hand: "No, just ask." He said, "I see that your screen has been replaced well, and I want to buy something in the store you went to."

Xu Yiran was puzzled: "Go, repair it, buy something?"

"That's right." Yuan Ye said lazily, without much explanation, he took his foot off the skateboard, bent over to pick it up, put his arm around Xu Yiran's shoulder, and walked to the store behind him, "Go shopping with me .”

Xu Yiran went back to the store with him in a daze, the store was empty, and the clerk was watching the instant noodle show "The Disaster of Saiki Kusuo".Just saw that Kai Teng Shun was cheated of money, Saiki Kusuo went to intimidate the liar, and the liar was so frightened that he chased after Kai Teng Shun to pay back Kai Teng Shun's money. He was laughing, and suddenly, someone knocked on the counter in front of him.

The clerk raised his head and saw that the little fool who had just left came back with a tall boy. He couldn't help but shuddered. He lowered his head to look at the frozen picture on the tablet, and then looked up at the expressionless tall boy. A sense of bleakness as a villain who is about to be slapped in the face.

Yuan Ye said calmly, "I want to buy something with you, let's talk?"

Clerk: "Inside, please."

Yuan Ye nodded, turned to Xu Yiran and said, "You wait for me outside."

Xu Yiran said "Okay", Yuan Ye put down the skateboard, and went into the small room to "talk" with the clerk.

After more than ten minutes, the two "talked" well.Yuan Ye came out with three hundred oceans in one hand and a paper bag in the other, followed by the dejected clerk.

Yuan Ye folded the three hundred oceans and asked Xu Yiran to put them back in his wallet.Xu Yiran looked at the clerk curiously, and Yuan Ye looked unhappy: "Why do you keep looking at him? Let's go."

Xu Yiran touched his bulging wallet, followed Yuan Ye out without saying a word.Yuan Ye walked in front leisurely, and told Xu Yiran about the nightmare he had last night. He was chased away by a pig, and he turned into a pig. Luo Li talked for a long time, then glanced to the side, Xu Yiran was absent-minded, as if he didn't listen to a word.

Yuan Ye became unhappy: "Hey, did you hear me?"

Xu Yiran thought in frustration, the clerk must have lied to him, otherwise why would he return the 300 yuan.If Yuan Ye hadn't happened to be there, he would have been complacent about being cheated, without realizing it.He was angry at himself for not making progress, but thinking of Yuan Ye dragging the clerk into the small room to talk, just to take care of his self-esteem, he felt that no matter how sad he was, he had to pretend to be happy.

Thinking of this, Xu Yiran nodded: "I see, you are a pig."

Yuan Ye: "..."

Xu Yiran: "..."

Xu Yiran quickly patched it: "No, I mean, in my dream..."

"Pfft." Yuan Ye had nothing to do with him, told him not to explain, picked up the paper bag in his hand, and asked Xu Yiran, "Do you know what's inside?"

Xu Yiran shook his head cooperatively.

Yuan Ye was triumphant: "You must have never seen it before. These are a pair of taptap smart bracelets, which are fun. Let's find a place to sit later, and I will show you."

Xu Yiran has indeed never seen a smart bracelet, but when he heard that it was a "pair", fireworks exploded in his mind, and he really felt that this bracelet must be good, all kinds of good.

He was about to ask where he was going, but the weather was not going his way, when a voice that he never wanted to recall for the rest of his life interjected, making him turn pale reflexively.

"Hehe, isn't this our classmate Xu Yiran?" A pair of green hair and red hair stopped the two of them, and the green hair looked at Yuan Ye with a quick look, and licked his lips, "Come out with the new classmate What about pressing the road? I’m quite rich recently.”

Hongmao rubbed his fingers, lowered his voice, and clearly wanted to threaten them: "Our brother just came out of it and is short of money. Two classmates, please help me?"

Yuan Ye originally wanted to take Xu Yiran to the cinema, but they messed up his good mood and said coldly, "I don't have time to play with you, get out." As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yiran pulled him away. He pulled his sleeves.

Yuan Ye was taken aback, and wanted to comfort Xu Yiran that he should not be afraid of them, but he saw Xu Yiran step forward with a heavy face and stood in front of him. Before he could speak, he heard Xu Yiran turn around and say, "You, let's go!" .”

The red hair laughed loudly: "Xu Yiran, do you know how to talk about loyalty now? You were so sensible in the first year of high school, don't make small reports to the head teacher, won't there be so many things later?"

Xu Yiran clenched his fist tremblingly: "I, no, hit, small report."

"Who cares if you have it or not?" Lu Mao sneered, "I'm talking to you, either keep the money or keep the people, choose quickly. We just came out of the detention center, and our hands are very tight."

He deliberately emphasized the "detention center", just waiting for the face of the high school student who looked like a little white rabbit in his eyes to change, but he didn't expect that Xu Yiran, who was soft and sloppy and never dared to speak after being taught by them, had a pale face Paper, but with a firm expression, standing in front of them without moving.

Is it for the tall guy?Lu Mao thought to himself, and couldn't help but glance at Yuan Ye.

Yuan Ye smiled, put his hands on Xu Yiran's stiff and tense shoulders, and said, "Little turtle, retract into your shell, this is not the time for you to come out."

Before Xu Yiran could react, Yuan Ye threw the skateboard and the paper bag into his arms. He hurriedly caught them and hugged them to his chest. He heard Yuan Ye say to him, "Stay aside."

Xu Yiran glanced at the two delinquent boys, hesitant to speak, but Yuan Ye's indifferent profile suddenly gave him a shot in the arm.

He let out an "oh", hugged the things Yuan Ye gave him, walked to the side and waited obediently.

Lumao laughed back angrily, squinting at Yuan Ye: "You alone, hit us both? Brother, you are very confident."

The red-haired sneered and shook his head.

Yuan Ye rolled up his sleeves and waved to the two: "Come."
