Chapter 60 Party
When Liu Xiao arrived, the alley outside the store was already full of private cars. It seemed that his classmates were living a good life. The LCD screen at the door said Welcome to the graduating class of Wucheng Middle School.
The words "Classmates" look quite formal. The name of the coffee shop is Farewell, an old blue brick house.
It was renovated, and the decoration style is just like the name of the store, which is unique and elegant. Behind the entrance screen, there is a square outdoor garden. The garden is a hundred square meters in size and is surrounded by a circular corridor. The second entrance is a courtyard, a two-story building, ancient and modern.
It complements each other well. It is said to be a coffee shop, but the tea and food are also
All are provided. At this time, two long tables have been placed parallel to each other in the garden. Four rows of chairs are arranged on both sides of the long table. The tables are filled with all kinds of fruit drinks. It seems that Liu Xiao has not arrived too early.
There were already more than forty people sitting there, each gathering in a circle and chatting animatedly. His eyes scanned every picture.
His face has not changed much after 4 years, but his temperament, clothing and the light in his eyes are completely different. Xia Junqin, whom he met on the road, was also there. Sitting next to her was a man with a serious smile. Liu Xiao didn't know who the man was.
, should be the person in the driver's seat just now. "Liu Xiao is here!"
Someone shouted, and everyone looked towards the entrance of the garden. Seeing Liu Xiao, some people had sincere smiles on their faces, some just glanced at him briefly and looked away, and some looked at his clothes.
After that, he ignored him. Lao Cai waved to him vigorously and motioned for him to come over and sit down. Liu Xiao smiled and moved closer. His best friends in high school were basically here. "I was afraid that you wouldn't come, so I was going to take it away."
My life is getting called."
Lao Cai's full name is Cai Yongshun. With his good talk, he became famous everywhere. When he was in high school, a group of people climbed the wall in the middle of the night and went to an Internet cafe to stay up all night. They were reported, and the teacher killed the group of people on the wall.
Everyone was called their parents, but this one actually managed to get the principal to forgive him by relying on his sharp tongue. "How dare you? You have to come to support such a big battle."
"Damn it, after four years in Qiantang, you almost disappeared from the world."
Li Lei on the side slapped Liu Xiao hard on the back, and said angrily, "Why, after you get along over there, you don't want the brothers from Wucheng anymore?"
"Don't dare, don't dare. You also know that my school is in the wilderness. It's not easy to get into the city, let alone ask a few of you."
In fact, many of his high school classmates are also studying in Qiantang, but they rarely move around. Qiantang has several university towns placed at different ends of the city, which is quite strange. Liu Xiao was also a carefree student in high school.
He is indispensable for both praise and criticism. Fortunately, his grades are not bad, otherwise he would be the focus of the dean. When former friends reunited, the topic instantly started, from school to employment.
, from professionalism to gossip, in the end, they all returned to the original point of wandering. Liu Xiao ordered a latte and quickly blended in perfectly. "You don't know, we were directly surrounded by a four-legged four-legged thing at the original point.
The monster with one hand was flushed. They played the game of killing everyone they met. I wiped it out. There are more than 3,000 people in our community. We originally said that we would fight them, but in the end, they were useless after just one encounter. Oh, don’t mention it."
A classmate who was still in Qiantang when he was swimming sighed. "You Qiantang is useless. At least we still fought with the land octopus monster. Really, if you don't want to brag, I even killed one with my own hands. That monster was covered in mucus.
The blood that spurted out was all green, it was so fucking disgusting, I still wash my hands five times a day."
"You are all fine, but I am miserable. I am in Australia, and I face a bunch of shit-like meatballs with a group of foreigners. Foreigners are really not good people. When we usually meet, we always say hello, me, hello, everyone, we are here.
They formed a group there themselves, and then assigned us to rush to the front, and left all the dirty work to us. Because of this, I immediately stopped staying there after I came back from wandering. Damn democracy and freedom, it’s all bullshit.”
The person who spoke was tall and thin. Although he looked weak, he was a master of all five kinds of poisons when he was in school. "I said you were staying well in Australia, why did you suddenly come back?"
"How is Australia over there? Is there any news about the Transformers?"
Someone immediately asked, "Haha, do you want to sell the information on foreigners who have transformed and those who have not returned from my set? If so, I would have sold it on the platform, and it will be your turn."
"Tch! It's boring."
The tall and lanky man continued, "However, foreigners do have strong survivability. Labor costs abroad are particularly high, so they study and do a lot of work at home. Their hands-on ability in the wild and the use of cold weapons are far behind.
Above us, you are being charged by monsters, and we are actively looking for people to fight. But our human bodies are indeed weak. We can catch others by surprise at first, but we are soon killed by a bug called a sickle.
.”
"Hey, is it true what is said on the Internet? You get meritorious service by killing aliens. One point is equal to one hundred thousand?"
Someone asked. "Is it true? This information is public in Australia, but only if you are a transformed person."
The tall and lanky man replied. "But not all aliens will be killed. You must kill the transformers among the aliens."
"It's not easy to kill a monster. You also have to kill the transformer. That's too difficult."
"It is said on the Internet that if you kill the alien transformer, you can become a transformer yourself. Is this true?"
"I don't know if it's true or not, but it seems to be true at the moment. Otherwise, how could the transformer come about? Transform it?"
"No wonder those who have not returned are so popular now. When people on the street find out that I have come back from the dead, their faces will look so ugly."
"Those who have not returned are not necessarily those who have transformed, and those who have transformed are not necessarily those who have not returned. Isn't there a post on the Internet that is very popular? It says that those who have transformed are eligible to return to the earth at any time."
"I've also read that post, so don't these transformers all become gods when they come back!?"
"That's not that exaggerated, but they are definitely no longer ordinary people. Now whether we in China can rush to the top spot with this wave depends on this group of people. We are eliminated in the game and have no chance.
Already."
"Now that I say that, is it possible that there are transformers among our group?"
"Hey, it's possible. Which of you is it? Tell me quickly!"
"Go away."
"Hey, it is said that our current achievements in China are barely in the top 10. We might fall out of the top 10 tomorrow."
Someone sighed, and these words made everyone's face darken. No one wanted their motherland to show weakness at this time. "That's not necessarily true. We have a large population base, so there must be a large number of non-returners and transformed people."
Liu Xiao interjected. "That's true, but let me tell you, becoming a transformed person is not a good thing. Now in China, there are many cases of missing and damaged bodies of transformed people and non-returners. People are talking a lot, and now the information
It's so developed that it's so easy for people to know about it."
Li Lei sighed. "How do you know? Has anyone been arrested in your prison?"
Li Lei attended the prison guard school and has been working in the local prison for a year. "You are right, we have indeed arrested a lot of people, but they are not those who came to carry out assassinations. Those people are not under our control. We arrest all generals."
Domestic information is sold to people abroad. These things have long been regarded as traitors, but now they are treated as spies."
"What's the use of assassination? Others are living well where they started, so what are you afraid of?"
"You know what the heck, after the body on earth has been wiped out, do you think this person is still an earthling? This person's personal achievements do not belong to any organization on earth. To put it bluntly, he is a gangster."
"There is still such a routine? Who decided it?"
"The order of the galaxy is established."
"That's no wonder. No matter how strong the Transformer is, he is just a vegetative person on earth, and it is not easy to kill him."
"So now we treat the non-returners and the transformed ones as treasures. If something happens to these two types of people under the rule, the local leaders will be absolutely doomed. Now the development of GDP is a secondary achievement, and the main political achievement depends on the local non-returnees.
Regarding the resettlement and protection of the displaced persons, let me tell you that those who are confirmed to be transformed persons will no longer be under the control of the local government. There are directly affiliated agencies that are directly responsible, and the local government can only take good care of those who have not returned."
"nnd, if I had known that I wouldn't be so brave at that time, I would have just found a place to hide and stay alive."
"Haha, who says it's not the case? I feel now that finding a good job is all nonsense. It's better to become a transformer at the origin, once and for all. Even if you die in the end, it doesn't matter. You can come back and continue to be beautiful, and the country will still support you.
you."
"Hey, I didn't seize such a good opportunity! Cannian, Cannian!"
Not to mention, Liu Xiao also got a lot of practical information from the gossip of his classmates. Moreover, the information about the origin and transformation on the Internet seems to be quite accurate, and it should come from the explanations of some transformation people themselves. The discussion became more and more intense.
It was enthusiastic, and the scheduled time had arrived. Buzz! The electronic music sounded. Suddenly Lao Cai stood in front of everyone with a microphone in his hand. "Dear fellow villagers, compatriots and comrades who have been tortured by Teacher Xu for four years, please pay attention.
"
Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at Lao Cai. "Today is the first class reunion for the *** graduating class of our Wucheng Middle School in four years. I am very excited but also very nervous."
As he spoke, he even wiped away tears, causing everyone to burst into laughter. "The reason for today's gathering is not only because we are destined to have spent the most painful three years together, but also because we all had the most painful time together not long ago.
We have all experienced life and death, and experienced real life and death. Emotions, let us humans distinguish
Different from other living things, friendship is the link between each other. Of course, love also counts. I don’t have much to say. We also arranged some small programs for today’s class reunion, but the main purpose is to let everyone talk about life.
Let’s talk about career, let’s talk about life, and don’t let each other’s feelings fade or break.”
"Should there be applause here?"
"Haha," everyone applauded. Lao Cai nodded with satisfaction. "There are still some students who haven't arrived, but no one's time is blown by the strong wind, so we won't wait. Those who are late will be punished. Everyone has the final say on how to punish them.
.”
There was another burst of applause and cheers. "Don't make cliques, everyone. There are names under each seat. Everyone! Follow my instructions and sit in the seat with your name. 3! 2! 1! Let's go!"
"
Everyone was obedient and stood up one after another, looking for their seats. Liu Xiao found his seat and sat down. At this time, he discovered that the boys and girls were actually separated. There were girls sitting on his left and right, and the one in front of him
The seat was empty, and it was obvious that this arrangement was carefully designed by Lao Cai and the others. After everyone was seated, Lao Cai's voice continued to sound. "Very good! Everyone is obedient. I, Teacher Cai, am very satisfied!"
"Get out of here!"
In an instant, a bunch of people started booing. "Okay! Let's start the first session now. Each group of six people will be in a group. They will first select the group leader and group name. The game session will be useful later. Let's begin!"
Liu Xiao looked around and saw that there were also six people in their group. The seat in front of him was empty, but Xia Junqin was sitting on his right. She brought her boyfriend, and there were exactly six of them. "How do you say, how many of you, who will be the leader of the group?"
?”
A former top student in the group spoke up. "Bao Ningyu, you have always been the squad leader. Why, now you don't even want to be the squad leader?"
Xia Junqin said with a smile. The man behind her seemed to be uninterested in everything and kept scrolling through his mobile phone. "It's not impossible, but we have to ask for everyone's opinions. Liu Xiao, what do you say?"
Bao Ningyu looked at Liu Xiao lukewarmly. "It's just you."
Liu Xiao replied casually. "Well, since everyone agrees, then I will be the team leader. I have also thought of the team name, and I will call it No. 1 in the world."
Liu Xiao felt a chill, and now he wanted to strangle this guy Lao Cai to death. How could he put such a guy in his group? "Okay, let's call him No. 1 in the world. Our group has a great advantage, four men and two women, so do
The game is guaranteed to win.”
Xia Junqin said excitedly, "My boyfriend is from Qiantang Sports Academy, and he is definitely an instant hit."
"Brother, what do you call me? My name is Bao Ningyu. I just graduated from Qiantang University."
Bao Ningyu stretched out his hand in a very philistine manner. "Jiang Weihe."
The man Xia Junqin brought was indifferent, but he still shook hands with him. "I will go to work in a foreign company soon. Where is Brother Jiang's job?"
Jiang Weihe wears a brand name and has a handsome appearance. It is obvious at a glance that he has a good background. This also made Bao Ningyu want to make friends. "Congratulations, congratulations."
Jiang Weihe said something perfunctory, and then nothing more happened. He obviously looked down on a young employee who had just joined the job, even if Bao Ningyu was a graduate of a prestigious university. Seeing the other party's reaction, Bao Ningyu was a little confused on his face, but he did not continue to make himself uncomfortable, but he was more determined to Jiang Weihe
There must be a background. "Bao Ningyu, that's good. He found a job in a foreign company so quickly. He deserves to be a top student."
Another girl in the same group said with envy. "Everywhere, everywhere, everyone is just a mess."
When the employment issue came up, several people started gossiping again, and Bao Ningyu did not hesitate to impart some of his employment experience to everyone. There were only two people in the group who didn't listen to a word, one was Jiang Weihe and the other was Liu Xiao. But this
The expressions of the two are completely different. Jiang Weihe is as cold as ice, while Liu Xiao is smiling. "Whose position is that? Team leader Bao, look who's name is written below?"
There were 7 empty seats in the audience, and Xia Junqin wanted to see who the empty seat was in her group. Apart from her, the other person in this group was a typical aunt-type girl. This sense of superiority made her feel very happy.
But this empty seat always made her a little worried. After hearing this, Bao Ningyu reached out and took out a piece of paper under the empty seat. There were three words written on it. "Qi Dongxue."
Upon hearing this name, Xia Junqin's face collapsed. The same reaction as her was Liu Xiao. He looked at Lao Cai who was spitting on his seat fiercely, and wanted to kill this guy with one arrow right now.
Chapter completed!
