Ever since his parents divorced and started their own families, Jiang Hai's personality has become a bit eccentric. I don't know if it's because of his low self-esteem or pride. In school, he is not willing to have even the slightest interaction with any of his classmates. His thin body carries a
Jiang Hai's huge canvas schoolbag, which was completely inconsistent with his body shape, seemed out of place with the entire school.
But compared to losing his entire family, the precocious Jiang Hai didn't care about the ridicule and isolation.
But sometimes, if you don’t care about something, people won’t come to you.
Open-air stadium, spectator stand.
Jiang Hai was sitting alone on the railing next to the stands, looking calmly at the crowds of people rushing to play football on the football field, licking a popsicle under the cold winter wind.
It's cold outside and icy inside.
He thinks it suits him quite well.
"Ta-ta. Ta-ta."
A tall man, who was also wearing the 13th GZ school uniform, led two people to the back of Jiang Hai, put his hand on Jiang Hai's shoulder, patted Jiang Hai's cheek, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Hai, the seniors are celebrating the New Year soon. As a junior, do you want to express your gratitude?"
A fat man following him immediately echoed: "If you give more this time, it will not be in vain for the diligent teachings we have given you this year."
"Pfft."
As soon as these words came out, a thin student standing next to the fat man laughed first, and then the three of them looked at each other and laughed out loud.
Jiang Hai raised his head and glanced at the three faces in front of him, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes, and then he lowered his head again: "Brother Zhang, didn't I just give you this month's share of the money?"
The leader, who was called Brother Zhang, became pale, slapped the popsicle in Jiang Hai's hand on the ground, and said in a rough voice: "Brothers are going to leave soon. I'm asking you for some filial piety to give you face."
, please don’t drink as a penalty if you don’t eat during the toast!”
Jiang Hai looked at the popsicle that was half melted on the ground, feeling a little numb.
"That's right! I guess he's just itchy and needs to be taken care of." The fat man crossed his hands on his chest and kept twisting them, making a "pop" sound, and said with a smile.
"Are you still nagging him?" The thin man simply stepped forward and tried to grab the canvas bag Jiang Hai was carrying, "Just search it. Oh my gosh, this guy won't give me the bag!"
"
Jiang Hai reached out and grabbed the thin man's wrist that was trying to grab his schoolbag, his eyes were red and he said, "I've already given you money."
When Brother Zhang heard this, his eyebrows suddenly stood up, with a look of anger on his face. Without saying much, he grabbed Jiang Hai by the back of his collar and smashed it to the ground.
Then he kicked Jiang Hai's unsuspecting belly. After kicking the person down, he called on the fat man and the thin man to stamp on Jiang Hai who was lying on the ground and kick him desperately.
After the fight was exhausted, Brother Zhang leaned over and forcibly pulled off the canvas bag from Jiang Hai. He opened the zipper and all the books and things inside were poured onto Jiang Hai.
Then, as if throwing away garbage, he threw the canvas bag in his hand into the corner of the stand where there were spider webs.
"Boy, prepare a thousand dollars on the day of the final exam, otherwise you will suffer."
After saying that, several people left in high spirits.
During this period, there was no violent resistance from Jiang Hai, nor was there any class monitor or teacher who faced injustice. The students playing football still cheered enthusiastically for the wonderful cooperation just now, and no one cared about the empty stands.
Jiang Hai lay on the ground and endured seemingly endless kicks and insults. He could only clench his fists and hope that time would pass faster.
After the three of them left, Jiang Hai, who was lying on the ground, let out a long sigh, struggled to get up and sat on the wall, adding a bit of disgust in his heart. He didn't understand why there were such shameless people, who also lacked
A single-parent family whose parents care about them always looks for a sense of presence in him. This is human nature.
He turned his head and looked silently at the exaggeratedly large and extremely shabby canvas bag that was thrown in the corner. This was a gift from his mother after his parents divorced. He said that if he bought a bigger bag, he could use it until he goes to college.
When you grow up and enter the society, will it be more miserable and painful than now?
After a while, the weak Jiang Hai got up and went to the corner to pick up the canvas bag. He walked back and slowly picked up the things thrown on the ground by several people. He was thinking that maybe he should take on the part-time job of the person on QQ to earn some money.
Get over this hurdle first.
Hey, it will be better once they graduate and leave.
It’s only been half a year.
.......
It was a little different from what I expected. I didn’t expect this stranger on the Internet to be so generous.
As soon as Jiang Hai became a friend, he received a red envelope of 100 yuan, followed by a smiley face and a short sentence.
"Hello, classmate."
Jiang Hai, who had not cared for him for a long time, was still feeling aches and pains in his body at this moment, but his heart was still touched by these two extremely simple words.
This kind of respect that is so ordinary that it cannot be called respect, on Jiang Hai's side, is a longing for an equal exchange that has not been encountered in an unknown number of years.
In the subsequent chat between the two, Jiang Hai learned that the other party's request was very simple, which was to go to the Internet cafe designated by the other party to surf the Internet.
As long as he successfully accesses the Internet once, whether he uses his own ID card or borrows someone else's ID card, as long as he surfs the Internet for one hour in the Internet cafe, the other party will pay him 200 yuan for his hard work.
The precocious Jiang Hai has a withdrawn personality, but he is not stupid. He knows that Internet cafes prohibit people under the age of 18 from entering and using computers, and it is clearly posted on the glass door.
The person on the other side of the computer screen obviously noticed Jiang Hai's hesitation. The other party forwarded a word document with very detailed content, indicating that it was not a problem for minors to go online in an Internet cafe.
It is neither illegal nor illegal.
This thing is weird and must be something bad. Who hasn’t heard of grandma’s poisonous apple when they were young?
Jiang Hai smiled bitterly, he had no choice.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In order to pay the three bullies a thousand yuan New Year red envelope, he could only carry the big canvas schoolbag he depended on and follow the instructions of netizens to try his best to sneak into the Internet cafe and turn on the phone.
Go online.
Then wait for an hour and then wait for an opportunity to run away.
Yes, he ran away without looking back.
After a month of this, Jiang Hai finally collected 1,000 yuan, then deleted the unknown netizen as a friend, and canceled his QQ account as if to escape, for fear that the police would follow the computer network cable and come to his door.
After a few days of trepidation, Jiang Hai just waited for the final exam to give him the money and settle the matter, waiting for another half a year for him to graduate.
As a result, on the day before the final exam, a man who claimed to be a policeman approached me on the roadside in front of the school.
At this moment, Jiang Hai clutched the thousand yuan in his pocket tightly and stared at the policeman nervously, fearing that the other party would take him to the police station or to the political and educational office of the school.
In just ten seconds, Jiang Hai had even relived in his own mind the miserable future of dropping out of school due to this incident and then running to work in an electronics factory in the south.
In the end, the policeman let him go easily.
Before leaving, he also told him to study hard and make progress every day.
Ordinarily, the stranger on the Internet had a purpose for showing kindness to him, but this policeman clearly caught him who had already made a mistake, but he just let him go easily.
Is this the policeman?
Jiang Hai, who felt that even his parents, teachers and classmates had given up, happened to be seventeen this year. Just as he was about to reach adulthood, he suddenly had a direction for his future.
