MTL - Chasing Summer-Chapter 13
The red-haired leg was kicked hard, and the whole body was in pain and couldn't hold back and wanted to kneel down, but the head was pressed tightly by the man, and he couldn't slide down even if he wanted to, so he could only hold back.
The red hair yelled in pain: "Fuck! You guys, why are you still standing there!"
"…damn it!"
"Hit him!"
The two people brought by Hongmao looked at each other, and rushed forward when they heard the words.
Lin Zhexia was so frightened by the chaotic scene in front of her that she almost froze in place.
Although she had fought when she was a child, the fight in front of her was completely different from that kind of brat fight. The scene was very chaotic, and she believed that the current situation could not persuade the fight, the only thing she could do was not to add chaos to Chi Yao.
Lin Zhexia took Chen Lin's hand and led her back.
Chen Lin: "Do you want to call the police..."
Lin Zhexia originally wanted to call the police, but Chi Yao beat them all by himself, and unexpectedly gained the upper hand.
The boy moved sharply, without any unnecessary movements. He unloaded his schoolbag and threw it aside. One arm locked tightly around Hongmao's neck, immobilizing Hongmao. Someone wanted to take the opportunity to attack him from behind, but they didn't find the opportunity. , but was hit back hard by his bent elbow.
This time it hit the man's chest firmly, knocking the man back a few steps.
When the other person rushed over, Chi Yao had already let go of the hand that locked Hongmao's neck. He pushed Hongmao forward with his backhand, causing Hongmao to collide with the person, and the two collided into a ball.
Looking at this scene, Chen Lin also forgot about calling the police for a while: "Look at the situation..."
Lin Zhexia said: "It doesn't look like someone is beating him, it looks like he is beating someone else."
"..."
"So the matter of calling the police, why don't you wait and see first."
After all, calling the police would make the situation worse, which might affect Chi Yao.
The fight ended faster than they had imagined, and within a few minutes, only Chi Yao was left standing.
"Let's go," Chi Yao said after typing, "I'll take you to the station."
Lin Zhexia gave a "oh" in a daze.
However, no one thought that Hongmao wanted to make a final fight. Just when Lin Zhexia followed Chi Yao for two steps, he suddenly jumped up from the ground.
Lin Zhexia was defenseless.
At that moment, he felt Chi Yao reach out his hand, which lightly clasped the back of her head, and pressed her into his arms.
The bridge of her nose rubbed against his collar, and the young man's clothes smelled of laundry detergent and clean after being exposed to the sun.
Chi Yao opened the distance between Hongmao and Lin Zhexia in the shortest time, and Hongmao not only flew into the air, but also got kicked.
Lin Zhexia was held in Chi Yao's arms, and heard his chest vibrate slightly when he spoke.
The boy's voice was too cold: "... you like being beaten so much?"
Hong Mao didn't dare to go forward this time.
Ahead is the station, and the bus just pulls into the station.
Chi Yao followed Lin Zhexia into the car and accompanied her to take Chen Lin home.
The three of them were silent all the way.
After reaching the gate of the community, Chen Lin recovered from the scene just now: "Thank you, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't know what to do."
Lin Zhexia: "It's okay, but you should talk to the teacher about the situation tomorrow, and see if there is any way to find out who the person opposite is, so as not to be troubled again."
Chen Lin nodded: "Then I'll go back first, and you should also pay attention to safety on the road."
It's getting dark now.
After sending Chen Lin away, only Lin Zhexia and Chi Yao were left walking back side by side.
Lin Zhexia tried to liven up the atmosphere: "The way you fought just now was very heroic."
Chi Yao didn't speak.
Lin Zhexia continued: "One-on-three is like throwing cabbage, the opponent has no power to fight back."
Chi Yao still didn't speak.
Lin Zhexia: "And you are very smart, you can understand all the typos I typed. The boss of No. 2 Middle School, why don't you speak."
This time Chi Yao directly passed her and walked to the front.
"..."
Only then did Lin Zhexia realize that Chi Yao was angry.
"I already praised you for being handsome," Lin Zhexia stepped forward quickly, and said tentatively, "How about I praise you a little more?"
Chi Yao stopped and turned to look at her.
The light from the street lamp hit him backwards, casting a shadow over his whole body.
It was rare for Chi Yao to utter a dirty word: "You...do you know it's dangerous?"
Lin Zhexia didn't know what to say for a while.
Chi Yao sneered, and recalled Lin Zhexia's far-fetched reason for replying to him: "There are other good friends."
"You are a good friend. You know there is danger and you will be dragged. You are also very good. One dares to pull and the other dares to go."
"..."
"What are you going to do if you don't have time to text me, if I don't see my phone, if I don't happen to be nearby."
"..."
"I was able to run away last time, but this time."
"..."
Lin Zhexia: "Brother, I didn't think that much at the time."
Even though she knew that Chi Yao was angry with Chen Lin because she was worried about her, she still wanted to explain: "She didn't drag me there either, because I thought it should be fine. I didn't expect that a quarrel on the Internet could be like this."
In the past, when Chi Yao was angry, she coaxed it a few times and then passed.
But this time it was different, she talked all the way, but Chi Yao didn't pay her much attention.
"Chi Yao Chi Yao, look, the reflection of this street lamp looks like a star."
"The puppy opposite is so cute, it's a bit like Xiaobai He Yang raised before."
"I found that you are handsome even with your hair. I walked behind you and felt that you are as handsome as a painting at this moment."
When he was about to get home, Lin Zhexia reached out and pulled the schoolbag **** his shoulder: "Chi Yao, you, Li, Li, me!"
"Don't keep silent like this," Lin Zhexia said, "Although I want to dumb you down when you usually talk."
Chi Yao didn't hold back this time, and laughed angrily: "You still want to dumb me down."
Lin Zhexia said in a low voice, "It means thinking about it occasionally."
Due to sending Chen Lin home, she came home more than an hour later than usual.
Lin He heated up the food: "Why is it so late today?"
Lin Zhexia put down her schoolbag, and found a reason: "Chi Yao and I went shopping in the bookstore, and came back late."
Wei Ping: "Remember to tell your mother when you come back late next time, your mother is very worried about you."
Lin Zhexia responded in a low voice.
She hurriedly stuffed the rice into her mouth, and then asked Lin He: "Mom, where is our medicine box?"
Lin He: "Under the coffee table, what's wrong? What's wrong with you?"
"No," Lin Zhexia said, "It's because Chi Yao has a... a little cold, I'll give him some medicine."
She just thought of the scene just now.
Although Chi Yao beat those people on the opposite side, was he injured anywhere?
It's easy to scratch when fighting, and if you swing the fist like this, your hands should hurt.
She thought of Chi Yao's hands along the way, and had to admit that it would be a pity if those hands were disfigured.
After she finished her meal, she ran to the opposite building with the medicine box.
She thought about it before ringing the doorbell. With Chi Yao's personality, he might not open the door for her because he is still angry.
So she opened the door with the key herself, and before pushing the door open, she said, "Hey, what, I'm in."
After entering the house, there was no one in the room, and there was no sound in the bathroom.
She waited and watched at the door for a while, and saw Chi Yao coming out of the bedroom just after taking a shower.
After changing his school uniform, he got closer to the image of "fighting after school", much like the negative characters in his impression who don't study hard and are domineering in school.
"busy?"
"Let me see if you are injured," Lin Zhexia said while holding the medicine box, "show me your hand."
With half-dried hair, Chi Yao leaned against the door and asked flatly, "Will I get hurt? I won't get hurt if there are three more from the opposite side."
Lin Zhexia: "I can see the wound on your hand."
"..."
"Stop pretending," she couldn't help saying, "There are no outsiders here."
There was a wound on Chi Yao's hand about four to five centimeters long, along the phalanx, and it had turned a purplish red after taking a bath.
Lin Zhexia was afraid that he would continue to pretend that nothing happened, so she forced him down on the sofa: "I know, this is just a small injury, which is nothing serious to you, and even such a small injury won't get into your eyes, but we'll let it go Poison."
She held his wrist with one hand as she spoke.
Chi Yao lowered his eyes, glanced at the hands of the two who were almost overlapping, and did not speak.
Lin Zhexia opened the medicine box and took out cotton swabs and povidone iodine.
"If you," Lin Zhexia said slowly, "if you feel pain."
Chi Yao: "Why, can I beat you up to divert my attention?"
Lin Zhexia: "No, then just bear with it."
It was the first time for her to stare at Chi Yao's hand so carefully.
May be nervous.
Involuntarily, she held her breath cautiously.
Occasionally, her fingertips would rub against his, and the temperature on boys seemed to be naturally higher than that on girls, and she felt the temperature from Chi Yao's hands spread to hers little by little.
The atmosphere is a bit strange.
While applying the medicine, Lin Zhexia wondered if she was a little too quiet.
She was about to say something, but before she could clear her throat, the door of Chi Yao's house was pushed open.
"Fuck," He Yang shouted as he stood at the door in shock, "I swear I wanted to knock on the door, but the door wasn't closed. As soon as I knocked, it opened by itself."
He shouted loudly, and when he finished shouting, the three of them looked at each other.
He saw his brother Yao sitting on the sofa, his brother Xia squatting, the tip of his nose was almost touching the hand, the two of them were very close to each other.
"...what are you two doing?"
Lin Zhexia stood up suddenly holding the cotton swab, with a guilty conscience that she didn't understand: "He hurt his hand when he took the medicine."
"Oh," He Yang didn't think much, he also sat down on the sofa, huddled with Chi Yao, and said, "I came here to take refuge, and I got my grades in the mid-term exam, and my mother chased me and beat me."
"I said that although I took the 23rd place in the exam, there are still more than a dozen people behind me. She asked me why I always compare with the poor ones."
"I don't compare myself with the poor ones, where do I have the confidence to continue my studies?"
Lin Zhexia packed the medicine box and nodded: "There is some truth to it."
He Yang: "Yes."
He turned to look at Chi Yao, hoping to get Chi Yao's approval.
"I've never placed in the top three," Chi Yao said, "I'm not sure."
He Yang: "..."
He Yang decided to change the subject: "Your hand, how did you do it, it's so long."
Chi Yao only said, "Something happened."
He Yang was shocked: "You fucking, fight?"
"One hits three," Lin Zhexia added, "I met a gangster after school, don't tell me about it."
Many things that cannot be said to parents are unreserved with peers.
He Yang naturally understands this truth: "Don't worry, I won't say anything. But my brother Yao has hit three dozen - awesome."
Lin Zhexia didn't have time to continue chatting with them, she had to rush home to do her homework.
After Lin Zhexia left, He Yang casually played with the game console on Chi Yao's coffee table.
He chatted with Chi Yao for a while: "It's really one against three."
Chi Yao: "Fake."
He Yang: "If you say that, it seems to be true."
He Yang played games for a while, Chi Yao went to the refrigerator to get water, and asked him by the way, "Do you want to drink?"
"drink."
The moment he reached out to pick up the mineral water bottle after speaking, he caught a glimpse of the thin T-shirt on Chi Yao's body, thought of the fight just mentioned, and suddenly remembered an old event that he hadn't thought of before.
The word "fight" is like a thread, connecting the incident that he had never thought of before.
He remembered what happened before he ran into Chi Yao exercising.
That was probably when they were eleven or twelve years old.
Somehow, a group of vocational high school students wandering around appeared near the community.
One night, they went to the canteen together to buy something to eat. As soon as they left the community, they were blocked by a few tall vocational high school students.
"Kids," several people smelled heavily of cigarettes, and one of them patted He Yang on the head and said, "Give the pocket money to my brother."
To them at the time, the gang looked like giants who could be swung across the street with a single punch.
Fortunately, Lin Zhexia was quick-witted and called out to the aunt she didn't know: "Mom!"
Then he managed to escape while those few people were in a daze.
It is also due to the large number of people in the neighborhood, otherwise it would be useless to call "Mom" as many times as possible.
Although there is no basis, he always feels that these two things seem to be related.
Lin Zhexia started to rush homework after returning home. She wrote and wrote to find out that something was wrong.
Which time was the "last time" in the sentence "I was able to run away last time" that Chi Yao said when he was angry?
She thought about it for a while, but because there were so many things that happened between her and Chi Yao, she couldn't remember it.
never mind.
She quickly gave up thinking.
Maybe once.
During homework, Lin Zhexia received several messages from Chen Lin.
Chen Lin: Sorry, QAQ!
Chen Lin: I'm really sorry that you and Chi Yao were involved.
Chen Lin: Sorry, sorry, sorry!
Chen Lin: I have canceled my forum account. From today on, I will study hard and be a new person.
Lin Zhexia replied with a head-touching emoticon package.
After answering, she put her phone aside and wanted to concentrate on writing the questions, but she still couldn't help but think of the scene of Chi Yao's fight.
But it wasn't the "fight" itself that made her feel like that scene was lingering.
Many words came to my ears one after another.
These words started with the phrase "You know Chi Yao".
"He's famous."
"Still wondering who caused such a big commotion, Chi Yao, it's okay."
"He was famous in school before."
"..."
Time seems to keep flickering back and forth before the eyes.
There were many years ago when I was a child.
"I'm not in good health, so I go to the hospital every now and then..."
"He can't hold the ball."
"He's always sick and can't play with us."
"..."
Then, in the memory, the sick child who was protected by her once gradually overlapped with Chi Yao who was fighting and protecting her today.
Lin Zhexia thought, put down her pen, lay down on the table, and when her chin touched her sleeve, she felt the smell of clean laundry detergent that she smelled in a hurry in the evening, as if it was still lingering on the tip of her nose, unable to go away .
It was only then that she suddenly realized that the Chi Yao seen by others in the past few days was a little different from the Chi Yao she had always known.
This difference comes from the fact that she is too familiar with this person, so she has not been able to discover his changes.
So she would find the description in the post confusing.
So she couldn't empathize.
It's because the Chi Yao she knew when she was young is very different from now.
…
That's why she didn't realize until now that Chi Yao turned out to be no longer the "sick guy" she took for granted.
She didn't get to know him again until today.
A strange yet familiar, new Chi Yao.
Before going to bed at night, she couldn't help clicking on the head portrait of Mao Maotou.
[You pat 'Chigou']
Lin Zhexia actually wanted to ask "Are you still angry?".
But Chi Yao obviously misunderstood the meaning of pat.
Chigou: Can't sleep?
Lin Zhexia replied hesitantly: ...Yes.
After a while, a message came from the other side.
- Even if you dream of six gangsters, I can beat them all.
Lin Zhexia realized that he felt that she couldn't sleep because she was scared during the day and was afraid of having nightmares.
Holding the phone in her hand, she turned over on the bed.
She typed back: What if I dreamed of sixty?
This time the opposite side came back after a while.
- then you happen to experience the experience
- how does it feel to be beaten to death
