Chapter 668: Just a Feint
Tuesday, after morning self-study.
Jiang Ning strolled alone along the main road of the campus.
In his previous life, he transferred to Yuzhou No. 4 Middle School. He always had a sense of urgency, the frustration of not being recognized by the girl he liked, and the anxiety of not being able to improve his academic performance.
There is a feeling of inferiority and powerlessness when seeing the excellent students in the class.
There is also a kind of hostility that comes with being born into poverty.
In fact, not only in high school, but also after entering college and entering society, impetuousness and hostility always filled his heart.
Driving him forward in confusion, busy with life, or busy with death.
It was not until he started practicing that technique that he lost that sense of urgency. The hostility that had been following him like a shadow due to his poor background also disappeared.
Now that he has started over again, he has gradually regained many of his emotions, but for him, apart from life and death, everything else in the world has become much more indifferent.
He is more numb than ordinary people. Many things that ordinary people care about, such as dignity, vanity, and even shame, Jiang Ning is often unable to generate emotions that match them.
However, being aware of this also shows that his worldly actions did have an effect.
'At least I'm aware of it.'
Thinking of something, Jiang Ning smiled.
Some time ago, Chen Siyu complained that Six Walnuts was a complete scam. She drank a can every day but still didn't get smarter.
She also mentioned the Melatonin she took when she was a child, saying that she took Melatonin every day but still didn't become smarter.
The commercials on TV are all lies.
Bai Yuxia told her, "You can realize this, isn't it proof that you have become smarter?"
Borrowing Bai Yuxia's words, Jiang Ning thought with amusement, at least he has realized the emotions he lacks.
……
Jiang Ning walked to the Yucai store and took a can of Coke from the refrigerator.
He handed over a 50-yuan bill.
This was given to him by Ma Shicheng this morning, claiming that he was a substitute in playing games last night and he should have a share.
Jiang Ning accepted it, and also reminded him not to tell Xue Yuantong about the substitute training.
For high school students in small cities in 2014, 50 yuan has a decent purchasing power.
Jiang Ning thought that she would spend 5 yuan to buy Tongtong a cup of top-quality double-skin milk, and she would be very happy again.
Maybe you will even feel that you owe it to yourself.
He was holding a Coke. It was early winter and the store's refrigerator was not on, so the Coke was not cold enough.
Jiang Ning held the can of Coke, and a chill emanated from his palms. The can of Coke quickly condensed into ice cubes.
Jiang Ning opened the can and the cold, refreshing cola made him feel a little happier.
He sat on a bench in front of the store, looking at the students coming and going.
A few high school freshmen who were using the internet nearby were chatting about games with great interest. "I'm currently playing a mobile game similar to CF. It's so cool!"
"what game?"
"All People on Fire."
The chat among a few people brought back Jiang Ning's memories. He had also played this game, which was later renamed "National Assault".
In the past two years, following the release of Tiantian Kupao, games from several Tencent studios have attracted special attention, and people have speculated when Speed Racing, CF, LOL, and Dungeon will be ported to mobile platforms.
He drank an iced cola and listened quietly to the conversation between several people.
Jiang Ning used to be one of such people.
……
At the same time, in the east corridor of Class 8.
Wang Yong looked at his phone with excitement: "Li Shi has finished her work and finally came to school."
Mentioning Li Shi, Zhuang Jianhui's expression changed slightly. He had been in Yuzhou for more than a year, and only what happened the day before yesterday made him feel unhappy.
In Ancheng, only the king of children in the compound made him feel so depressed.
Lin Zida was silent and sighed in his heart. It was difficult to find a classmate who could talk about hosting in No. 4 Middle School. After what Li Shi and Zhuang Jianhui did, it was not easy for him to get along with Jiang Ning, his half-friend.
Wang Yong said hurriedly: "She got off the car, I will go to the door to meet her."
As he said this, he hurried down the stairs.
Although Wang Yong was born in the Yuzhou compound, he belonged to the lowest class. His parents had only managed to get a small official position until now.
Influenced by his parents, Wang Yong knew that Li Shi's family was not in the same field as his, but every time a new leader took office, he would often make a special visit to Li Shi's parents.
Wang Yong wanted to have a good relationship with Li Shi.
He ran downstairs, turned around and looked at the balcony on the second floor. Cui Yu and the others were discussing the situation.
Wang Yong shook his head secretly. While his peers were still in a daze, he had already seen through the real side of society.
Wang Yong felt a refreshing feeling as if everyone else was drunk but he was the only one sober.
However, Wang Yong appears to get along well with his classmates, as he has a lot of connections!
Maybe one day, someone will fly onto the tree branch and become a phoenix!
Wang Yong walked quickly towards the school gate.
……
Outside the Yucai store, the small boss Wei Xiuyuan heard a few junior students discussing something. He said:
"Games are just games after all. Have you heard that Evergreen Liquid has a shooting range?"
Several junior students who were chatting animatedly looked at Wei Xiuyuan.
Wei Xiuyuan is tall, handsome, and has good grades, so his mental outlook is qualitatively different from that of several of his younger classmates who are addicted to games.
"Young boss, is this true?" The younger students were good at playing games, but they had never dreamed of playing those real things. After all, they were still very far from reality.
Wei Xiuyuan pretended: "A friend of mine said so."
The younger students didn't quite believe it and cast questioning looks at him.
Wei Xiuyuan looked at Jiang Ning sitting on the bench and felt that he looked familiar. Isn’t this Jiang Ning, the second best student in the grade?
He asked casually, "Brother, did you go to the Changqing Liquid press conference? Did you win a spot at the shooting range?"
Jiang Ning: “I got it.”
Wei Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment: "Did he really go?"
Jiang Ning: "Of course."
Wei Xiuyuan: "Can you tell me what it's like to shoot a gun?"
When the younger students saw that there was an older brother next to them, they all became interested. They play shooting games every day and they must be longing for the shooting range!
"Brother, how do you feel about the feel compared to the game? If I'm good at CF, will it help me with shooting?" A junior with a flat head asked in a familiar manner.
You can see that he is very naive.
Another chubby junior asked, "Brother, do you feel like you are carrying a sharp weapon and have a murderous mind?"
Another junior student was curious: "I heard that real guns can make people feel awe!"
"The feel?" Jiang Ning pondered for a few seconds, then he raised his hand in the air, slightly bent his fingers, and made a 'gun' gesture.
Wei Xiuyuan and his fellow students were all paying attention, waiting for him to speak.
At this time, Wang Yong had just walked out of the school gate. He was looking for Li Shi's figure and happened to see the gesture made by Jiang Ning.
Wang Yong didn't pay much attention to it, thinking he was joking.
A dozen meters ahead of him.
Li Shi was wearing a luxury coat, and her expression was much more restrained than the previous two days, like the surface of a lake after a storm.
The doctor originally asked her to rest for two more days, but Li Shi refused because she was not that fragile.
She had been privileged since childhood and did not become devastated by this blow.
She is much stronger than others think.
'Jiang Ning...' Thinking of this name, Li Shi felt complicated and there was a hidden haze.
She won't give in.
Although her steps were heavy, each one was firm and powerful. The brand-name coat made her look graceful and attracted the attention of students around her. Many male students secretly looked at her and were intimidated by her aura.
Until one moment, Li Shi's eyes inadvertently caught Jiang Ning.
He sat on a bench, making a gesture with his hand, a familiar yet frightening gesture.
In an instant, Li Shi's heart twitched violently, and she seemed to have returned to the moment when she was at the muzzle of the gun. The gesture gradually turned into the shadow of a gun in her eyes.
The shadow was as huge as a mountain, pointing directly at her heart.
In front of the gun, she was so small and weak.
Fear drained all her courage. Li Shi felt a chill on her back and her face turned pale. She couldn't even scream and could only look at Jiang Ning in horror.
The next second, Wang Yong noticed Li Shi and shouted, "Sister Li, here, here!"
Driven by the instinct to escape, Li Shi turned around and ran, quickly disappearing from Wang Yong's sight. She didn't stop until she reached the intersection, her throat dry.
Wang Yongding stood there, "What happened to Sister Li?"
Li Shi's actions attracted the attention of the crowd and sparked a lot of discussion.
Jiang Ning naturally withdrew his hand and said, "I'm not sure about the feeling, but did you notice that girl just now?"
Wei Xiuyuan was surprised: "I saw it, she is very abnormal."
Jiang Ning stood up, took a sip of Coke, and said with a smile: "That's the reaction when a gun is pointed at you."
After saying that, Jiang Ning walked down the stairs. As he walked, he threw a can casually, and it flew over more than ten meters and into a roadside trash can with a "bang".
Then walked away.
Wei Xiuyuan: "Fuck, in Chinese, we use objects to describe people, and you can even use people to show off?"
……
A few minutes later, Wang Yong returned to the east balcony of Class 8.
Lin Zida saw him coming back alone and wondered, "Didn't you pick up Li Shi?"
Wang Yongxin clearly went downstairs in a hurry just now. He must have received the news from Li Shi.
Wang Yong looked depressed. He still couldn't understand why Li Shi was so abnormal.
He also saw clearly the panic on Li Shi's face at that time. In his memory, Li Shi was always extremely proud, like a phoenix.
"I saw her at the school gate, and then..." Wang Yong described the scene just now.
Zhuang Jianhui interrupted: "Have you seen Jiang Ning?"
Lin Zida's face also changed color.
Wang Yong was puzzled: "Yes, is there something wrong with him?"
Compared to Wang Yong who was unaware of the whole situation, Lin Zida and Zhuang Jianhui looked at each other and saw the caution in each other's eyes.
Zhuang Jianhui thought to himself: "This is the second time. Doesn't he fear Li Shi's revenge at all?"
Lin Zida was thinking back to the warning from his cousin Shuyan.
The two of them had different thoughts, but Wang Yong was the only one who couldn't figure it out. But looking at the reactions of Lin and Zhuang, it seemed that Li Shi's abnormality was not unrelated to Jiang Ning.
At this time, Jiang Ning went up to the balcony, and Lin and Zhuang looked out at the same time.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning nodded slightly and walked past the place.
Zhuang Jianhui looked a little unnatural. He had been planning to plot against Jiang Ning the day before yesterday, but after all his planning, Jiang Ning didn't take him seriously at all.
Lin Zida sighed inwardly and patted Zhuang Jianhui on the shoulder: "Let's just leave it at that."
