Chapter 208 The Battle of New York [The first day after ten thousand days]

The next day, a very ordinary Tuesday, people were still coming and going during school hours at Midtown High School. Peter and Harry high-fived at the school gate and walked side by side into the school gate. During this period, Harry still asked in a very gossipy manner: "Yesterday you

Did you talk to Gwen after you got back?"

Peter's heart skipped a beat, and then he shook his head in confusion.

Harry rolled his eyes: "Didn't you see it yesterday? Gwen didn't push away your arms. This may not prove that she also likes you, but she definitely doesn't have any ill feelings toward you."

Peter's expression was still tangled. Just as he was about to say something, he found himself being tapped on the shoulder. A tall figure passed by the two of them, walked up to them carrying a schoolbag, and handed them two tickets.

"Hey, two celebrities, good morning. The high school basketball preliminaries are being held in Midtown today. Do you want to come and watch?"

The high school basketball qualifiers are the first threshold for high school leagues in the country. If you surpass this, you can enter the state competition, and the schools that stand out from the state competition can participate in the national high school basketball league.

Peter glanced at the person who came, and he knew him. He was Lightning who had been in the same school since childhood.

"Thompson, we may not have time to watch your game." Harry naturally knew this. Although he went to an aristocratic school since childhood and was only classmates with Peter in high school, he bullied Peter a lot compared to growing up.

In Flash Thompson, Peter and Harry have a better relationship.

Lightning shrugged: "I know, I know, but I'm just here to deliver tickets to you. You also know that you and I, um... had some misunderstandings..."

Harry narrowed his eyes: "Misunderstanding?"

Peter stopped Harry with a look of shame on his face: "No need, no need, we are all friends."

There are two turning points in the relationship between Peter and Thompson. The first one is after high school, Peter and You Qi became friends, and then You Qi beat Lightning up. Oh, don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t a public revenge, but Lightning was there at that time.

The football team, well, it was the Youqi team that scored 7 goals and sent them to the opposite school football team with 10 goals.

Of course, Lightning was just a substitute at that time, and he naturally felt uncomfortable being beaten indiscriminately by You Qi. So from that time on, Lightning was a stranger to Peter, and he would not say hello when he met him.

The second change was when Peter's uncle Ben Parker died of a heart attack in his second year of high school. As mentioned before, Lightning Thompson and Peter had been bullying Peter in the same school since they were young.

Therefore, he must be very clear about Peter's situation. He knew that Peter's parents had long since died, and later his uncle had died, which made Lightning Thompson fall into isolation for a time.

In short, Thompson has never realized that Peter is so miserable. His parents are gone, his uncle is gone, and he is usually bullied in school. He actually went to comfort Peter at that time, but he did not enter Peter's house.

That's all.

Now that he is in his senior year of high school, Thompson has also looked away. It is impossible for him to regard Peter as his brother, but it is good to put an end to his youth.

"This is probably the last time I will appear in front of you. I really want to reconcile with you. Of course, if you don't accept it, I won't say anything. I deserve it."

Peter frowned: "Last time? What do you mean?"

Thompson: "If I reach the national finals in this high school league, I should take the path of a professional star in the future. If I don't reach the national competition, I will have no choice but to join the army."

Harry looked at Thompson in surprise: "Join the army?"

Thompson shrugged: "I'm not as rich as your family, and I'm not as good at studies as Peter. My dad and I have talked about it, and I have to make plans for the future."

Peter fell silent immediately.

Harry didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although he had conflicts with Thompson, in the end they were conflicts during his boyhood, and what Thompson did was not considered campus bullying. In fact, Thompson stopped others from bullying him many times.

His attitude toward Peter was more like, I can bully him, but others can't.

At least we all got to know each other, and at the end of the day, Thompson still thought about it but regretted it.

Otherwise, if you join the ugly army, you will have almost no hope for the rest of your life.

Don’t think that the Ugly Army’s recruitment is very honorable. Compared with a certain Donghuang country that has to rush to serve as soldiers, the Ugly Army’s recruitment is actually a choice that many Ugly people have no choice in most of the time. As long as there is another way,

They will not choose to join the army.

Of course, there are some ugly Chinese people who have been deceived by the ugly Chinese media, but of course there are not many of them.

After all, every time the army recruits troops, there is a fat issue called targets. You can imagine what can be done for recruiting troops.

Thompson continued: "Of course, I don't have the monster physical fitness of that chess guy, otherwise I would definitely take the path of sports. I really envy chess. I can definitely choose any of his university schools.

In short, I have given you the two best positions in this competition. If you want to come, you can come. If you don’t want to come, it’s okay.”

Peter looked at the two tickets in his hand and asked, "What about the chess pieces?"

Thompson waved his hand: "As long as he wants to come and watch, the coach will directly give up his position to him."

Harry, Peter: "..."

Okay, I asked a nonsense question.

Strictly speaking, although You Qi has withdrawn from all clubs, the clubs in school will definitely not expel him.

This kind of sports genius is so popular in Ugly Country.

Many NBA scouts have even been in contact with Youqi early on, but Youqi is not short of money or women, and has no interest in participating in Ugly Country's sports competitions. They just don't care.

But the school is definitely different. The principal is very anxious about the results of his school's sports events, but the shame and shame of letting You Qi lead the football team to kick 1 and 21 really makes all the teachers and students in the school

The school leaders cannot hold their heads high in front of Youqi.

This kind of thing has long been spread throughout the country, and even the country now considers Zhongcheng High School to be the Donghuang football team in the country's universities.

In short, if You Qi wants to go to the basketball court and watch the fun, no teacher will say no.

After all, what if the chess player is itchy and wants to go up and throw two?

Then the game will be stable.

So, at noon, Harry, Peter and Gwen came to the court and saw the basketball team coach who was nodding and bowing to You Qi.

Gwen held her chin and was speechless: "Is that the coach? Why do you look like a loser?"

Harry shrugged: "Don't talk about being a loser. If you ask Qi to play a small game or lick Qi's shoes, he won't refuse."

Peter looked envious: "I'm so envious. I wish I had such physical ability."

Gwen pursed her lips. She actually had this ability, but there was no women's basketball team in high school, only a cheerleading team.

The special thing about You Qi is that in the physical examination organized by the school every year, You Qi is neither a mutant nor a person with super powers. His body is no different from that of ordinary people. His sports ability is brought about by pure sports genius.

This kind of talent is sought after by the entire country.

After all, strict genetic testing is now conducted before the start of international sports competitions.

Otherwise, if a mutant related to fish were to participate in the swimming competition, wouldn’t it be completely fun?

Harry glanced at Peter and asked: "Mr. Tony has already given Gwen a letter of recommendation from MIT. I will definitely go to MIT by then. What are your plans?"

Peter suddenly became even more depressed. He was beaten by someone and lay at home for a few days. The person hasn't caught him yet, but he did miss the national physics competition, which resulted in him getting Tony Stark's recommendation letter.

Not here anymore.

If I had to take the SAT on my own, there would still be a question mark over whether I would be able to get into MIT in the end.

After all, the exam is not just about science and engineering, which Peter is good at.

Peter sighed: "Let's take it one step at a time."

"Beep!"

The whistle sounded, and the starting players of the basketball team from Midtown High School and another high school that came to compete began to enter the stadium. Peter and Harry also withdrew their gaze.

Lightning Thompson saw Peter and Harry sitting in the first row of the audience, and immediately smiled and waved to them.

Peter and Harry responded, and then the cheerleaders came on to dance, and the members of the two teams began to warm up in their own half.

Peter looked at the cheerleaders wearing miniskirts and tube tops, and before he could react, he noticed the vague glances from the side.

Peter immediately lowered his head in embarrassment.

Harry started to comment with great interest: "Wow, I saw this last time at Qi's house. Oh, isn't that Lana who was Qi's girlfriend for three weeks when I was a sophomore in high school? She is really sexy...

…”

As he spoke, Harry also noticed the death gaze beside him and decisively closed his mouth.

The cheerleaders finished their warm-up and left the field one by one, ogling You Qi. You Qi smiled and waved, but in his heart he was scolding the Bitchis.

Even if I have slept with you, it does not mean that you are not Bichi.

At the beginning of the game, Zhongcheng High School led the opponent by 10 points in the first quarter under the lightning organized attack. It was a wild start. In the second quarter, the point difference was opened to 20 points, which was already a big lead.

The coach standing on the sidelines was dancing happily, but You Qi, who was sitting in the coach's seat, looked drowsy.

A basketball game played by a bunch of brats is not interesting at all.

The sudden change happened at the end of the third section.

Probably knowing that there was no hope of a comeback, a student from the other high school who was 30 points behind was knocked to the ground during a scramble. The people from Zhongcheng High School mocked him a few times, and he took out a U with an angry look on his face.

plate.

The moment he saw the USB flash drive, You Qi, who was already sleepy, suddenly widened his eyes.

He had a bad premonition...
