"Do you think our people are bad?" Chu Tingting suddenly spoke.
"No..." I leaned on the stone tablet and suddenly understood Chu Tingting's purpose. She was to save me as a friend for Liu Xing and the others. And Liu Xing and the others thought that I now have a soft spot for Chu Tingting, so
I asked her to come over. I couldn't help but feel touched that they actually cared about me so much.
"Then why are you always hiding from us?" Chu Tingting's face seemed to be even redder. She casually pulled a leaf from the tree next to her and tied it in her hand.
I sighed and decided to tell the truth: "I don't think it's good for you to bully the freshmen like this..."
"We didn't..." Chu Tingting seemed a little anxious. She threw the leaves on the ground and wanted to defend herself, but she seemed speechless. After being anxious for a long time, she said: "We are together to protect ourselves."
."[
"Ah?" I didn't understand what Chu Tingting said.
"We are all students from nearby counties and towns. If we don't do this, we will be bullied by the locals." Chu Tingting seemed to have organized the language for a long time before she made it clear.
"The one who gave you a hard time in the cafeteria just now is a character in the Chinese zodiac, called Snake." Chu Tingting added.
After listening to Chu Tingting's explanation, I realized that in the city's No. 1 Middle School, there are two main groups. One group is local students, and the other group is students from other places. Among the local students, the more famous ones are the twelve zodiac signs, which have a total of
Among the twelve people, the older ones have already entered the society and become people on the "Tao". The younger ones, like Ah She, are only in the first grade of high school.
These twelve people are not ranked based on their zodiac signs. After all, it is too difficult to get enough twelve zodiac signs to be brothers. They are all children from a relatively high-end community in the city.
, it is said that when making a sworn vows, one must first tell what kind of official his father is and what kind of car he drives to determine his position. So Ah She, who is only a freshman in high school this year, is lucky enough to be ranked sixth.
The most distinctive feature of the twelve zodiac signs is where you are, and the animal head of that zodiac sign is tattooed on your arm. So Ashe has the head of a cobra tattooed on his arm. Because of the social background of the twelve zodiac signs,
Without exception, it is the largest force in the city's No. 1 Middle School. Apart from Ah She, there are several others who are also in the No. 1 Middle School, but they are all in their second and third years of high school.
The group of people led by Lao Tu is the largest force among the students from other places. Because Lao Tu also has a brother outside the school who is known as a "person on the road", so the Chinese zodiac also gives him some face. The school often asks boarding students
Those who collect protection fees are people of the twelve zodiac signs, and as long as they hang out with old people, they can be exempted from this fee.
Lao Tu's reputation among students from other places is unprecedentedly strong. He is righteous and forthright, just like Qiao Feng when he was still alive. He ate big chunks of meat, drank big bowls of wine, and never made things difficult for his brothers. He would do his best to help anyone who was in trouble. For this reason, he
I have had several direct conflicts with people of the Chinese zodiac.
"So, do you think that no one in your dormitory comes to collect protection money because all the people in the No. 1 Middle School are good people?" Chu Tingting ended with these words, which struck a chord in my heart. It turns out that Liu Xing had already spoken out, saying
I am their brother. When people of the Chinese zodiac collect protection fees in the dormitory, they avoid our dormitory. That’s it! No wonder I was wondering a few days ago when people said that they had to pay protection fees when staying in No. 1 Middle School. Just wait and see.
When no one came, I thought it was just a rumor. It turned out that there was such a secret behind it, and I felt more admiration and gratitude for Liu Xing and the others.
As for Gao Xiaoshan, it was because no one had dared to talk to Liu Xing like this in so many years in No. 1 Middle School. He was angry for a moment, so he went back to the dormitory and asked Lao Tu and others to teach Gao Xiaoshan a lesson.
