sunk in yesterday

The school was built on a flat ground in a depression. Fortunately, Xia Zhuo came with a car instead of walking, because coming from the mayor's house was equivalent to turning over half a mountain halfway.

At first he thought the school in a small place was not that big, but when he got there, he found it quite spectacular. Unlike ordinary places where tall buildings are next to each other, the buildings here form a closed "mouth" shape, with an open-air activity place in the middle - the playground. All the students will come here during the recess, and almost all of them will go outside the school to jump during the break.

There are no iron fences or high walls around, it seems that any student who wants to skip class and lie down in the grass can get away.However, although there was no obstruction from the outside, the entrance to the building was locked with iron chains.

The driver parked the car aside, took out the key from his pocket and unlocked it, and then said to them: "There is no one here, so you can use it as you please. But the mayor still hopes that you will take care of the things that the students left in school, our adults I don’t think it’s a big deal, their little hairy kids are still being protected as their own treasures.”

Guan Yuzhou responded, "That's natural."

"Hey, kids are amazing now. Once they break their toys, they rush up to scratch and scratch like hell, and compare toys all day long. I don't know where they got them. Let me tell you, just a little bit." I don't care about my studies..."

Xia Zhuo followed them inside, silently remembering this sentence.

The four sides of the building face east, west, north and south respectively. The east is the elementary school building, the west is the junior high school building, and the south is the high school building.The north building directly facing the high school from the left neighbor junior high school and the right neighbor primary school is the teacher's activity place, which covers offices, clinics, storage rooms, etc.

This is the first time Xia Zhuo has seen this kind of school with a unique shape. Fortunately, there are signs at the door of the class, so it is not possible to find the wrong place because of turning around.

He tugged on Guan Yuzhou's sleeve, and listened to the driver's rambling about the education industry here, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the man who came with him and picked up all the corresponding class signs from the passing place.

The woman went to persuade him several times halfway, but it didn't work at all.Tan Nian looked back at each step, stopped and walked hesitantly, as if he wanted to stop him but was also afraid, and finally stammered in a mosquito voice: "Why, why are you like this, you do this kind of thing too much. punished..."

The man clasped the iron plates in his hand, and sneered with his back straight when he heard the words: "Are you new here? Those people in the town will not do less tricks, anyway, you have memorized the general directions, I don’t suffer any disadvantages. If I don’t do this, it will be you and us who will suffer, and I am thinking for us!”

This is how the mutual suspicion among the participants intensifies.

"But, you throw it like this, everyone knows it's..." Tan Nian wanted to say something more, but the man threw the iron plate through the window without saying a word, paralyzing the playground.

What Qin Nian hadn't finished saying was all buried in the crackling background sound. Xia Zhuo turned her head and glanced at him. Seeing that he still had a resigned look with his head down, he raised his eyebrows strangely. Ask Guan Yuzhou one more question.

"Here it is!" The driver patted the wooden door, smacking the paint that was about to fall off, "Hey, although our place is small, we have everything. We bought it together. The three connected ones The rooms are available!"

The students in the town are all day students, and there is no saying that they live on campus, so the school did not build dormitories at the very beginning.

The temporarily vacated rooms are of different sizes. The three adjacent rooms are a storage room, an infirmary, and an old classroom that has not been used for a long time connected to the junior high school on the west side. I got on and off the bed a few times, and found a broken screen somewhere in the middle, even if it divided the space into two.

There are a total of eight bunk beds in three rooms, exactly sixteen beds.

Xia Zhuo stood still between the storage room and the infirmary, turned around and asked Guan Yuzhou, "Where do we live?"

After all, there are eight people in the classroom. Although it sounds safe if there are many people, it is noisy and troublesome. It is better to choose a clean room with few people.

Guan Yuzhou stood at his right back very naturally, and asked him, "Where do you want to live?"

"Anything to say?"

Guan Yuzhou shook his head, looking like "you decide".

Same old style, blind selection again.

"The place for washing is at the end of the north and south corners of the second floor, and the bathroom is at the opposite corner on both sides. The water is running non-stop these days. You can take it whenever you need it. Don't be polite." The driver explained the last place with due diligence. , ready to leave with an easy-going smile.Seeing that he was about to disappear into the stairway, he froze suddenly again, as if he had bumped into something.

A few people were still thinking about choosing a house, but when they saw this, they looked over inexplicably.

The driver stood there stiffly, still unable to lift his feet.The man and woman looked at each other, obviously not knowing what was going on.The man was quite courageous, and he took a few steps forward to see the situation clearly, but the driver kept his original posture and mechanically lowered his head little by little, looking at his feet.

Xia Zhuo glanced at the ground, and noticed that there was a wind-up toy on the plain marble floor, a few centimeters less than the size of a palm, shaped like a small plastic monkey riding a bicycle, and looked a little funny.

The green car and the orange-yellow monkey look like a cheap product at a glance.The wheel of the car was touching the edge of the driver's shoe, as if it had rolled out of some corner and bumped into it.

Xia Zhuo suddenly thought of the feeling when something bumped into him when he was on the train.

A light touch, like a simple greeting to him, but such an inadvertent collision made his brain immediately sound the alarm at that time, and he became extremely vigilant.

The driver's breathing became short of breath. He looked at the old classroom that had been vacated, and his face turned pale instantly.Before the participants behind him approached him to ask more questions, he had already rushed out and disappeared at the stairs in the blink of an eye. The ground was still shaking with the slight shock caused by his excessive force.

There was no hindrance to the toy car, creaking and continuing to roll forward. The little monkey on it kept turning its head from side to side, but stopped when it was about to hit the wall.

A strange feeling suddenly arose, causing Guan Yuzhou to take a step forward and stand in front of Xia Zhuo.

"Why..." Xia Zhuo just opened his head, watching the monkey's head turned upside down, staring at the man closest to it with a strange posture.

This made the man stop and dare not move.

"……thing."

He managed to complete the words, but the campus radio was turned on at this time, and the regular radio exercise reminder rang through the entire building through the loudspeaker: The third set of radio gymnastics for primary and secondary schools across the country is now——

The sound of "Kazi" was cut off.

The monkey turned around with its head turned upside down, and the wheel slowly drew an arc on the ground, creaking and creaking again.After a few seconds of silence, the sound of the radio was replaced by intermittent music, and the monotonous rhythm gradually took shape, echoing around.

Several people immediately recognized that it was the sound of a music box.Occasionally, the vague winding sound interspersed, and the original clear music could not stretch people, but the scalp felt a little numb.

Guan Yuzhou said decisively: "Go to the broadcasting room."

Since the sound came from the radio, there must be something left in the radio room.

"Then what about this toy? Do you just leave it alone?" Xia Zhuo subconsciously followed a few steps forward, and quickly turned around to take a look.The man grabbed the toy car close to him, turned the monkey's head straight in his hand and sneered, stuck its wheels in the window frame, and pushed it a little further, and it would fall from upstairs to the playground .

"Don't touch it, why don't you listen to what I say!" The woman was in a hurry and tugged on his sleeve in a panic.

"The man said just now that you can't break children's toys, and I didn't break it. Why did it come to me?" The man dismissed it. After glancing at Guan Yuzhou and the others, he went in the opposite direction to find the broadcasting room up.

The toy car couldn't move, it was inserted crookedly in the gap and stopped moving.The woman was a little worried, she stood aside and watched for a while, but she didn't dare to put it down, so she followed closely and walked away.

"Let's go." Guan Yuzhou turned to tell Tan Nian, "You go downstairs, Xia Zhuo and I go upstairs."

Tan Nian responded in a low voice, stuttering like a little while speaking, but he didn't procrastinate when he moved, and disappeared as soon as he turned his heels.

Xia Zhuo glanced back. After the people dispersed, the plastic monkey on the cart turned its head upside down again, facing the old classroom with the door ajar.

Guan Yuzhou had already reached the bottom of the steps and yelled at him.He hurriedly trotted over, "Here we come."

The broadcasting room is on the top floor of the North Building. It seems to be afraid that mischievous students will touch it and do something wrong, so a sliding gate is installed out of the ordinary.The frosted glass shines through, and the table inside can be vaguely seen, but no one is there.

Xia Zhuo tried to tug on the door, but disappointedly said: "It's locked, you still have to use the key."

But there are so many places in this school, and looking for a key is like looking for a needle in a haystack in comparison. They have no clue now, and they searched the surrounding flower pots but found nothing, so they had to go back to the original place again.

"Should I ask the mayor directly? He said that we can use this place as we please, so we can't just give him a key."

"Since it's already locked, it means that the participants are asked to find out by themselves." Guan Yuzhou shook his head: "If you ask the aborigines directly, there is usually only one result. They will say that the key happened to be lost by accident, and they plan to ask a locksmith to come. Change, but it will not work for a while when something happens.”

Xia Zhuo understands, it's just Tai Chi, shirk it.

"So there's no need to do anything extra, let's just try to find it ourselves." Guan Yuzhou smiled, "If it really doesn't work, then we have other ways to use it."

Xia Zhuo was stunned: "You don't plan to break the lock violently, do you? It's easy to hurt yourself."

"You'll know then."

"What, so mysterious?"

"Some things can't be explained clearly, it's better to see them with your own eyes."

"Okay." Xia Zhuo pouted, reluctantly accepted the argument: "I've made up my mind, let's go to the storage room. I think the old classroom is weird. Last time, my dream made me feel sick in the infirmary. I don’t really want to stay there, besides, there might be some useful tools in the place where miscellaneous things are stored.”

As soon as they mentioned the last dream, they both thought of the "kiss" before they finally separated.

It was said that the kiss was a bit too much, it was more like Xia Zhuo's one-sided teasing, some tough teasing.Since Guan Yuzhou didn't say anything now, at least it means that the other party doesn't hate him.Thinking of this, Xia Zhuo rolled his eyes, and finally couldn't hold back since meeting.

"Hey, Guan Yuzhou."

"Ok?"

"I'm idle now, why don't I come and have a kiss."
