cut the waves

On Wednesday, at four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a sound of "bell—" and the sound of tables and chairs colliding everywhere, igniting the restlessness in every corner of the campus.

The coach of the provincial team released Zhang Yanming's pigeons before, but a week later, he landed in the swimming pool of No. [-] Middle School with a smile on his face without saying hello.The coach's surname is Yan, and the single name has the word "正". He has good facial features, smiles all over his face, and looks gentle and handsome. I heard that he is very "ruthless" in training people, and he likes to be nicknamed "Jade Face Yan Luo" in the provincial team.Behind the teacher of the provincial team was a young boy who looked like a student, tall, with a cold face and an aura of "don't let strangers in".

There was a whisper among the classmates.

"Who is this person? Why is he so tall..."

"Is it 1.9 meters? Is it taller than Brother Hao?"

"It looks like the school uniform is from the [-]th middle school. Why do the [-]th middle school come to our school?"

"I know this guy." Xu Yufeng said in a low voice, "His name is Cheng Zhefan. He is training from the small provincial team. He is the best freestyle swimmer in Ninghai this year."

Wang Pengpeng whispered: "The best freestyle swimmer in our freestyle competition this year isn't Brother Liao?"

"I won the national bronze medal in the 200m race this year," Su Liao explained in a low voice, "He is the gold medalist. He is also the gold medalist in the 400m race."

Wang Pengpeng's eyes widened.

Cheng Zhefan walked towards them slowly, his eyes only fell on Su Liao, as if the others were not worthy of his eyes.Su Liao lightly punched the man on the shoulder, and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a few months, have you grown taller?"

The other party didn't seem to be interested in chatting, so he went straight to the point: "Where is Yu Yu?"

Unfortunately, Yu Yu was taken into the "little black room" by Teacher Ye.

Under his hand was an English dictation book, the letters on it were written like a dog had chewed them, and there were several red crosses drawn on the side.Yu Yu looked at the English textbook for a while, and then couldn't help but look up at Ye Jing who was sitting at the door, with the sound of reciting in his ears one after another.

Ye Jing's average English score in the college entrance examination in the last class was the highest in the city, and she is very good at managing students.In the class she leads, there are two grades in English dictation: "Good" and "GoodLuck".

Among them, students who receive "GoodLuck" will also get a small "eye" stamp on the dictation book: oval eye sockets, solid eyeballs, plus three erected eyelashes, which are very dull.With red ink, it has a slightly creepy taste.

The students who are "watched" by Teacher Ye, no matter what the original arrangement is - after four o'clock, they will be summoned to a small room to recite the dictation, and they will not be able to come out if they fail to pass.It is said that one of the worst students was once locked up until [-]:[-] pm, and even the parents had to wait outside the door to pick him up. Teacher Ye didn't eat dinner with him.

Since then, English dictation has become a nightmare for Classes [-] and [-].

Yu Yu doesn't know what's wrong with him these days, he always feels very sleepy.I fell asleep in the middle of memorizing the text last night, which led to today's dictation accident.Holding the textbook, he moved to Ye Jing's side and begged, "Teacher, I still have training in the afternoon."

Ye Jing pushed the gold-rimmed glasses and gave him a cold look: "What are you training for? Sports students, sports students, before doing sports, you are a student first. If you can't memorize it, you don't have to go to training today."

Yu Yu buried his face in the book with a "snap".

After Su Liao explained the situation, he added: "I guess he won't be able to come out for a while. You can swim for a while."

"Just came back from the training camp. Tired." Cheng Zhefan stretched his upper body and sat down on a chair by the pool. "I'll wait for him here."

Su Liao looked at the other party suspiciously: "What do you want him for?"

Before Cheng Zhefan could answer, Yan Zheng came from behind and hooked Su Liao's neck affectionately: "This kid heard that I came to No. [-] Middle School to see people, so he must follow, and he insisted on a match with this Yu Yu. .”

As he spoke, he sighed again: "I said this little student Yu Yu, who is so sacred? Your teacher Zhang showed me his swimming pool results, and the provincial team is also very average? How dare you be late for training, let me go He's skinned."

Knowing Yan Zheng's violent temper, Su Liao quickly said something fair for Yu Yu: "He's usually fine, but today was an accident."

Yan Zheng snorted coldly.

I don't know if it's because he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. Yan Zheng turned his head to look at the curious little classmate, and suddenly shouted in shock: "What are you doing in a daze? The training is just to watch the fun, right? I will represent Zhang today. The teacher cleans up your bunch of rotten leaves and puts them in the water—500m warm-up, 500m leg kick, 500m splint paddling!"

A whistle blew across the pool.

The students were all taken aback, and jumped down like a dumpling in a hurry.

Yan Zheng's eyes slowly fell on Su Liao again: "Are you here for training today, or for chatting?"

Without saying a word, Su Liao turned around and jumped down too.

Yan Zheng specially measured Su Liao's heart rate in various sports, helped him revise his training plan, commented on the athletes one by one, and specially helped Mao Kaijie correct his posture and stroke frequency.Classmate Mao was overwhelmed by the flattery. After landing, his face was blushing, and he wished to bow ninety degrees to others.

When Yu Yu finally passed Teacher Ye's dictation and rushed to the swimming pool, it was almost six o'clock.He asked Su Liao to greet Zhang Yanming for him, but he didn't expect to be detained so late by Ye Jing.

Yan Zheng raised his eyes, and said coldly: "Oh, you are finally here, you are such a treasure, if you don't come, I will leave."

Yu Yu felt aggrieved, and opened his mouth to say, "I didn't know you were here today."

Yan Zheng's eyes almost popped out.How dare this stinky brat talk back? !

Cheng Zhefan got up and stared at him with burning eyes: "Yu Yu."

Yu Yu was already troubled in his heart, so he glanced at him coldly: "Who are you?"

The little students in the pool poked out their goose necks curiously.

The eyes of the boys in Eighteenth Middle School suddenly became gloomy: "I'm Cheng Zhefan."

The corner of Yu Yu's mouth twitched, but he didn't answer.If a person's face could be attached to bullet screens, Su Liao felt that his face would be covered with "Who is that", "Don't think I'll know just by saying your name", "Have I seen you", and many question marks.

"You don't remember?" Cheng Zhefan's eyes flashed with anger, but his tone was calm, "We were in the same year, at the Yanzhou Youth Swimming Championships, in the nine, ten, and 11-year-old groups, you basically won the freestyle event. Every gold medal. I'm the No.2. We've been on the podium many times together."

Yu Yu's originally emotionless eyes were a little shaken.

He opened his mouth slightly, but didn't speak for a long while.If you ask him to say something, he might ask "what's the matter with you".However, he noticed that Su Liao was lying on the edge of the pool, secretly aiming towards him.For some reason, Yu Yu suddenly decided to be a polite No. [-] member: "Oh, hello."

However, Yu Yu racked his brains and had no impression of this kid who "went to the podium together".Hell, this happened so many years ago, who will remember?

Obviously, Cheng Zhefan remembered.He continued on his own: "When I was 12 years old, I was looking forward to a duel with you. But you didn't come. I thought you gave up swimming." He stared at the other party coldly: "Since you are still swimming , then I still want to compete with you."

Yu Yu glanced sideways at Yan Zheng.

Yan Zheng crossed his arms and raised his chin, meaning "Look at each other".

Yu Yu's Adam's apple rolled up and down: "Compared to what?"

"What you do best."

Yu Yu thought about his best result and shrugged: "Then let me warm up first, let's do 400m."

Cheng Zhefan nodded lightly and started stretching.

"What am I supposed to do? It turns out that the champion of the national competition came all the way to compete with us Yu Yu? This is enough to save face!" Wang Pengpeng joined a group of classmates who watched the excitement, and he didn't think it was a big deal, "Hey , bet? Who do you bet on to win?"

Su Liao didn't even think about it, and replied directly: "In 400m, Yu Yu can't beat him."

Wang Pengpeng bumped him with his chubby shoulder: "Brother Liao, how can you be like this? Raising the momentum of others and destroying one's own prestige, this is the home court of our No. [-] Middle School."

"Is there a need to gamble? There is no comparison at all." Xu Yufeng explained in a low voice, "In the national competition for middle school students in May this year, Cheng Zhefan directly broke the competition record in the 400m from 4 minutes, and directly rated the national swimming master .Yu Yu’s best time in 400m is still several seconds away from the master. Unless Yu Yu performs exceptionally, or the surname Cheng pulls his hips, otherwise there is really no chance of winning.”

Mao Kaijie leaned over and asked, "How much is the men's 400m self-athlete class?"

Su Liao replied, "Four minutes and four point eight five."

"Oh...that's it." Wang Pengpeng was a little disappointed, and soon he was a little angry again, "Then the eighteenth high school students are here to bully people!"

The students gave up two swimming lanes and got together to watch the game.

The two sides of the battle each stepped onto the starting platform.

Yu Yu seldom "has no idea" about any game.But standing on the starting platform this time, he felt a rare sense of uneasiness.It was a weird feeling, like he knew he was going to lose.No one likes to lose.What's more, there are so many students, and even the coach from the provincial team is watching...

Is it embarrassing to see him?

At the first preparation whistle, he arched his back and grabbed the starting block.

This feeling is not good.

"Beep—" Another whistle sounded, and both of them entered the water.

The sound of splashes exploded in my ears.

Yu Yu could feel the waves in the swimming lane next door.Cheng Zhefan entered the water faster than him - the person in the next lane has a longer wingspan, more powerful strokes, and a faster frequency.He was obviously a little behind when he got into the water, but Yu Yu didn't know why, and he became calm again as soon as he got into the water.

The water gently caressed his body, his complicated thoughts faded away, and his brain was happy and focused, just like a fish returning to the sea.

At a certain moment of breathing, he heard Su Liao whistle not far away: "Come on, little killer whale!"
