Listen to the fire

After the flag raising ceremony, Ji Cheng and Wan Pengfei walked towards the classroom.

When passing by the school's art and culture wall, Ji Cheng saw Yi Suone.

Together with a few classmates, Yi Suone is posting a stack of paintings in his hand on the art and culture wall one by one.

Teacher Yang from the art room stood behind them and instructed them where to put the paintings.

"What are they doing?" Ji Cheng stopped walking when he saw Yi Suone.

Yi Suone was the tallest among those classmates, so he was the one who pasted up the tallest paintings.

"School art festival," Wan Pengfei rubbed his nose, "I'm starting to prepare for the painting, calligraphy and photography exhibition this week, and next Monday will be the art performance of the art festival."

"Theatrical performance?" Ji Cheng frowned. This kind of activity in his student days was really too long ago for him. He had forgotten how the cultural performance was held so long ago.

"Yes, every class has a program." Wan Pengfei nodded.

Ji Cheng smiled: "What kind of program is our class?"

"I'll go!" Hearing Ji Cheng's question, Wan Pengfei yelled suddenly, looking terrified.

Ji Cheng looked at the startled Wan Pengfei, and the doubts in his eyes grew a little more.

Wan Pengfei seemed to have been pressed the slow multiplier button. He looked at Ji Cheng, raised his hand, then slowly lowered it, and finally landed on Ji Cheng's shoulder: "Brother Deng, the one who went to the art festival to perform is You."

"Me?" Ji Cheng stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, his mind was completely bewildered.

"Yes, that's right, you are the one who performs your guitar playing and singing every semester." Wan Pengfei said, approaching Ji Cheng and asked again: "You should be able to play and sing, right?"

Ji Cheng stretched out his hand and knocked on Wan Pengfei's forehead: "I know how to play ball!"

"It's over, it's over..." Wan Pengfei shook his head.

"Is Ji Cheng's singing really good?" Ji Cheng was a little surprised, he was born with tone deafness, when he went to KTV to sing with the police force, when he opened his voice, the whole team went out...

"Of course, Brother Deng still needs two brushes to be liked by so many little girls, right?" Wan Pengfei said.

Ji Cheng sighed, stretched out his hand and tugged Wan Pengfei: "I can't, I've been tone deaf since I was a child, if I go up there, I'll be screwed, this time you go to the art festival instead of me."

"No, no, I won't!" Wan Pengfei shook his head hastily.

At this time, Ji Cheng's eyes fell on Yi Suone in front of him. Speaking of which, he saw a piano behind the living room of Yi Suone's house that day. The little elk should know how to play the piano, right?

"I have a solution, let's go find Yi Su!" Ji Cheng said, and ran towards the art and culture wall.

"Yi Suone! I have something to tell you." Ji Cheng looked up at Yi Suone who was standing on the chair and shouted, and the students standing in front of the posting board also turned to look at Ji Cheng.

Yi Suone saw that it was Ji Cheng, and quickly jumped off the chair.

"Ji Cheng, you... looking for me?" Yi Suone asked in confusion.

"Take a step to talk." Ji Cheng said, stretched out his hand and pulled Yi Suone aside, and Wan Pengfei also came over at this time.

Ji Cheng looked at Yi Sullone's puzzled expression, hesitated for a moment, and still spoke out about his difficulties: "It's like this, next week is the art performance of the art festival, and I was the one performing in our class, but my guitar It's broken, I saw you had a piano at home the other day, and I thought, would you..."

"Accompaniment for you, no problem!" Yi Suone agreed without thinking.

However, what Ji Cheng wanted was not just an accompaniment, he couldn't even sing.

"Then what... I also have a problem with my throat..." Ji Cheng continued.

Yi Suone stared at Ji Cheng's face. When he spoke, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his cheeks were slightly flushed.

"However, I don't sing well either." Yi Song smiled.

"It's okay, you play, and Xiaopang sings!" Ji Cheng said, reaching out to pat Wan Pengfei on the back.

Wan Pengfei's eyes widened suddenly: "Brother Deng, you...don't play with it like this, I really don't know how... Besides, your name is written on the performance list of the art festival, no matter what you want on stage."

"I'm on stage, I'll shine for you." Ji Cheng said.

Wan Pengfei: "..."

"Then besides the guitar, do you know any musical instruments?" Yi Suone said suddenly.

Ji Cheng and Wan Pengfei looked at each other, Wan Pengfei quickly shook his head.

"I played drums before... but I haven't played for a long time..." Ji Cheng learned drums from a teacher when he was in junior high school, and he never played again after he was busy studying in high school.

"It shouldn't be a problem if you have the basics. There is a drum set at the Children's Palace. I'll tell the teacher of the Children's Palace to let you practice there for a week." Yi Song continued.

Hearing what Yi Suone said, Ji Cheng was immediately excited.

If he could go to the Children's Palace to play drums, he might have a chance to meet Zhou Jiayi, and it would be much easier to investigate the person in the Children's Palace.

"Okay, then I'll go to the Children's Palace with you at night." Ji Cheng raised his head, his eyes sparkled again.

"Uh, so you don't need me?" Wan Pengfei also laughed happily.

"Let's go, let's go back to the classroom and don't disturb the little elk!" Ji Cheng pushed Wan Pengfei, waved at Yi Suone, and left quickly.

Yi Suone looked at the backs of the two and smiled, and went back to continue posting his works.

After school in the afternoon, Ji Cheng went to apply to Lao Xiang to go to the Children's Palace to practice drumming. Lao Xiang didn't want Ji Cheng to go, but Ji Cheng promised to Lao Xiang that the next exam would not be lower than [-] Only then did Lao Xiang let Ji Cheng go.

"Little Molu, we can go to the Children's Palace!" Ji Cheng came out of Laoxiang's office and ran directly to the culture and art wall.

The two of them made an appointment to meet at the art wall.

"Have you made a deal with Lao Xiang?" Yi Song asked with a smile when he heard Ji Cheng's voice.

"Yeah, I don't have to go to evening self-study this week..." Ji Cheng was talking, and his eyes fell on a piece of work on the cultural and art wall in front of him.

This work is the road tunnel painted by Yi Su, with Yi Su's name and class on it.

"This work...was supposed to participate in the exhibition?" Ji Cheng was a little surprised.

"Yeah." Yi Suone nodded.

Ji Cheng looked at Yi Su's works. He was really good at painting. In this exhibition, his works are the most eye-catching.

"Let's go, let's go." Yi Song stretched out his hand and patted Ji Cheng's shoulder.

"Oh, okay, let's go!" Ji Cheng turned his face, and when he saw Yi Suone's warm and soft smiling face, he remembered the night when he was drunk again.

Ji Cheng quickly looked away, and quickly left with Yi Suone.

"Ji Cheng."

When walking to the path from last time, Yi Suone suddenly called Ji Cheng's name.

"Well, what's wrong?" Ji Cheng looked at Yi Suone with some doubts.

"Speaking of going to the Children's Palace, are you very excited?" Yi Suone looked at Ji Cheng, his deep black eyes shone with a clear gleam in the setting sun.

"Yeah, I actually..." Ji Cheng looked into the little elk's eyes and almost told the truth.

In the middle of speaking, Ji Cheng stopped his voice, turned to look in front of Xiaolu.

It is impossible for him to involve Yi Suone in this matter. It is better for Yi Suone not to know about this matter.

"Yeah, I actually like playing drums quite a bit. I haven't played for many years, and my hands are a little itchy." Ji Cheng quickly thought of an excuse.

"Do you like playing drums?" Yi Suone looked at Ji Cheng, although there was a gentle smile on his face, his eyes were full of distrust.

"Yes, I really like it, but my family is not very good, so it may be difficult to buy a drum set..." Ji Cheng wanted to continue lying, but Yi Suone interrupted Ji Cheng: "Okay, I know all about it."

Ji Cheng looked at Yi Suone's dark black eyes that shimmered slightly, and the knuckles of his fingers hanging by his side curled up slightly.

For a moment, Ji Cheng fell into this awkward and silent atmosphere. The slanting sunlight elongated their shadows and cast them on the wall beside them. It seemed that the shadows were more silent than their own.

"In front of me, you don't have to lie. The last time you sent me to the Children's Palace was to lure Li Zhengxin out. This time to practice drums, you must still want to continue investigating the people behind Li Zhengxin, right?"

Yi Suone's voice is very gentle, mixed with the cool wind of early autumn, if not because he clearly heard what Yi Suone said, Ji Cheng would have thought it was a confession of love.

"That's right, I didn't mean to lie...It's just because they are targeting me, and I don't want to involve you..." Ji Cheng was silent for a long time, then looked at Yi Suone in front of him and opened his mouth again.

After hearing what Ji Cheng said, Yi Su suddenly laughed, showing his white teeth.

"Don't worry, I won't stop you from what you are going to do, but you must pay attention to your own safety."

He didn't stop himself, but...

"Thank you, Yi Su." Ji Cheng also raised the corners of his lips, feeling really well understood.

Moreover, this person who understands you is still a person who you think is very important.

"By the way, I've washed your clothes, but they're not dry yet. I'll bring them to you when they're dry." Ji Cheng suddenly remembered that Yi Su's clothes were still at home, and he wanted to tell him about it in the morning Yes, but never remembered.

Yi Suone smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, my school uniform is coming soon, and I won't be able to wear those clothes for a few days."

"You must look good in school uniform." Looking at Yi Suone's face, Ji Cheng unexpectedly said such a sentence.

The corners of Yi Suone's lips twitched: "You also look good in school uniform."

Hearing Yi Suone's words, Ji Cheng's chest once again gathered scorching warmth.

The two closed their eyes, took a step forward and continued to move forward, unknowingly arrived at the Children's Palace.

"Do you know where the dance studio is for the third year of high school trainees?" Ji Cheng sent Yi Song to the downstairs where the art classroom was, and couldn't help but ask.

"Dance studio?" Yi Suone raised his brows slightly.

Seeing Yi Suone's expression, Ji Cheng didn't know why, and immediately explained: "I didn't go to see the girl, because this girl has something to do with this case, I just wanted to find out if I could find any clues ..."

Seeing Ji Cheng's explanation, Yi Song couldn't help laughing.

Ji Cheng: "..."

At this second, Ji Cheng felt a little regretful, did he react too violently and explained too much?

"The drum practice room you are going to is at the end of the corridor on the left side of the third floor. The dance classroom is just downstairs from the drum practice room. There are several classrooms there. I don't know who the girl you are looking for is. Which one is it, but it should be over there." Yi Su put down his laugh and said to Ji Cheng.

"Okay, then I'll go and have a look, you paint well!" Ji Cheng waved at Yi Suone, and ran towards the corridor beside him.

Yi Suone watched Ji Cheng's back disappear at the entrance of the corridor over there, then turned around and went upstairs.

When he reached the second floor, Ji Cheng turned left and walked along the corridor.

Most of the dancers are girls, so Ji Cheng's appearance here seems particularly abrupt.

In addition to Ji Cheng's outstanding appearance, when he walked this way, the girls around all looked at him.

Ji Cheng shuttled through the girls' scorching gazes, not feeling embarrassed at all, but instead used his own eyes to look for Zhou Jiayi among the girls.

Walking to the door of the classroom at the end, Ji Cheng heard a girl's excited cry: "Zhou Jiayi is too good!"

After hearing the words, Ji Cheng turned his head and looked into the classroom.
