"I think my brother might be fake." Yan Zhu said to her best friend in front of her.

"Oh." Cheng Jiaying was concentrating on looking at the comic in her hand.

Yan Zhu couldn't help but patted the table, "Are you listening to me?"

Cheng Jiaying raised her head: "What were you talking about just now?"

Yan Zhu took a breath, then she looked around carefully and lowered her voice: "I think my brother might be fake."

"Which brother of yours?"

"My dear brother Yan Zhen!!"

Cheng Jiaying took a sip of the milk tea and asked naturally, "Why do you think he is fake?"

Yes, why? Yan Zhu blinked. If she really asked, there was nothing unusual about her brother. He went to school and came home as usual, ate at home as usual, and was just like usual...

But Yan Zhu felt that something was wrong. Or maybe her brother Yan Zhen had changed a lot since last summer vacation, but the strange thing was that she didn't have too many thoughts at that time, she just thought that her brother's abnormal behavior might be the sequelae of the accident. But this brother now is really wrong, just, just like something else.

She opened her mouth and then closed it. If she really asked, she couldn't come up with any specific examples.

"In short, I just think my brother might be fake!" Yan Zhu said firmly.

Cheng Jiaying glanced at her and said, "Actually, I often feel this way."

“Right!”

"I often feel that my mother is fake. I ranked fifth in the class this time, but she didn't even say a word of praise. She just said casually, 'keep up the good work.' Is she still my real mother?" Cheng Jiaying said sadly.

"..." Yan Zhu said, "I'm serious!"

"I'm serious, too."

"Cheng Jiaying, have you ever seen that kind of comic? It's about the people around you being replaced by unknown objects without you noticing." Yan Zhu lowered her voice, "Maybe my brother is..."

"You might as well say that your brother has Toxoplasma in his brain and is being controlled by your cat. This is the most popular setting now."

"Cheng Jiaying, listen to me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Jiaying stared at the side and said, "Ah, your brother is here."

The two of them were sitting at the window of KFC, and through the window they could see the middle school students coming down the street after school. Yan Zhu's brother Yan Zhen and his good friend Liu Xingquan walked side by side. Yan Zhen was a handsome boy with black hair and a stern look, and Liu Xingquan beside him had a delicate appearance and clear brown eyes. When the two of them walked together, they would always attract a lot of sidelong glances from passers-by, and even some high school girls would giggle at them.

Yan Zhu stared at her brother as he slowly approached with his schoolbag on his back. From the looks of it, it was indeed her brother, but...

She subconsciously looked at Cheng Jiaying, hoping to get her approval. But Cheng Jiaying just blushed and murmured, "Ah, your brother is so handsome."

"..." Yan Zhu angrily clenched the milk tea cup, "I didn't ask you to see his face!"

"So what do you want me to see?"

"Do you think there's something wrong with him?"

Cheng Jiaying stared at Yan Zhen for a while, and after a while, she suddenly said, "Something is wrong."

"Really?" Yan Zhu happily moved closer to Cheng Jiaying, "What's wrong?"

"I heard that your brother used to have a bad relationship with the eldest daughter of the Wei family. But now they go home from school together!!" Cheng Jiaying shouted in disbelief.

"..." Yan Zhu said, "In fact, their relationship doesn't seem to be that bad. Sister Wei Jingjing has come to our house several times before."

It was the coldest time of winter, and it had just snowed. The middle school students were all dressed up like balls. But in Yan Zhu's eyes, Wei Jingjing was still charming even in a down jacket. She followed Yan Zhen slowly, with a calm expression.

The middle school students passed by KFC. Yan Zhen did not see his sister Yan Zhu sitting in the store, but walked directly over with his friends Liu Xingquan and Wei Jingjing. Yan Zhu and Cheng Jiaying watched the three of them gradually go away.

When their figures were about to disappear at the end of the street, Cheng Jiaying said, " Yan Zhu, that's not the direction of your home, right?"

"Yes, that's not the direction of my home." Yan Zhu said.

The two little girls looked at each other for a while, then immediately stood up and rushed out of the KFC store.

Slime mold Yan Zhen, slime mold Liu Xingquan and slime mold Wei Jingjing walked forward silently.

In fact, to play the role of three middle school students, slime mold Wei Jingjing thought they should talk about something on the way, instead of being completely silent like now. But what to talk about, she didn't know.

The three slime molds stopped in front of a kebab shop and walked in together.

After finding a seat, the three slime molds sat down upright.

The waiter handed them the menu with a smile. Slime mold Wei Jingjing took it, looked at it, and said, "A bunch of grilled leeks." The other two slime molds looked at her in silence, and she ordered two more of the same grilled leeks.

"Would you like a drink?" the waiter asked.

"We don't need carbonated drinks, nor do we need to consume too much sugar," said slime mold Wei Jingjing calmly.

While waiting for the skewers to be served, the three slime molds fell silent again. Slime mold Yan Zhen and slime mold Liu Xingquan both set their sights on slime mold Wei Jingjing. Slime mold Wei Jingjing had more experience and qualifications than them, and was the natural leader among them.

As the leader, the slime mold Wei Jingjing himself was also at a loss. The people sitting in the barbecue were all chatting happily. Only their table was quiet. In order to successfully play the role of a human, what should they say at this time?

So the slime mold Wei Jingjing said: "I had scrambled eggs with tomatoes and rice for lunch today."

Slime mold Yan Zhen said: "I had pork chop noodles for lunch today."

"I had cabbage and pork wontons for lunch today," said Liu Xingquan, a slime mold.

The three slime molds fell silent again.

Open up a topic and chat, because that's what all humans do. Slime mold Wei Jingjing thought, what else to say.

So the slime mold Wei Jingjing said, "I watched the cartoon The Thief of Lothar yesterday."

Slime mold Yan Zhen said: "I watched the TV series Runaway Wife yesterday."

Slime mold Liu Xingquan said: "I watched the movie The Godfather yesterday."

The three slime molds fell silent again.

A customer at the next table turned around as if he couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Hey, are you guys on a blind date?"

Slime mold Wei Jingjing asked doubtfully: "Blind date?"

The customer said bitterly: "Only blind dates would have such a boring conversation!"

Slime mold Wei Jingjing said: "We are not on a blind date."

Slime mold Yan Zhen said: "It's not a blind date."

Slime mold Liu Xingquan said: "It's not a blind date."

The customer stood up and wailed, "Oh my god, there's a fucking echo."

Three roasted leeks were served. Slime mold Wei Jingjing lowered his head and began to eat the leeks on the plate. Slime molds Yan Zhen and Liu Xingquan also followed quietly and began to eat. There is no need to chat while eating. This is one of the human etiquette that slime mold Wei Jingjing has learned.

When they finished eating, the slime mold Wei Jingjing said softly: "Next, we should continue to perform our duties."

The slime mold Yan Zhen said, “Yes.”

Slime mold Liu Xingquan said: "Yes."

Slime mold Wei Jingjing said: "Don't forget to write in your diary. This is the information you must give to them when they come back."

Slime mold Yan Zhen said: "I write every day."

Slime mold Liu Xingquan said: "Me too."

Slime mold Wei Jingjing nodded.

The routine communication should end here. The reason why we chose the kebab shop is that Wei Jingjing, the slime mold, found that many middle school students would go there. Things that are inconvenient to talk about in school can be communicated here without suspicion.

Slime mold Yan Zhen said: "But I have a question."

Slime mold Wei Jingjing asked: "What?"

The slime mold Yan Zhen said: "Master Yan Zhen's sister is doubting me."

Slime mold Wei Jingjing asked: "Why does she doubt you? Is it because you did something wrong?"

Yan Zhen said: "I don't know, but she is doubting me."

Slime mold Wei Jingjing said: "Then you can only work harder to dispel her suspicion. This is our responsibility."

The slime mold Yan Zhen nodded seriously.

…

Yan Zhu and Cheng Jiaying were peeking outside the kebab shop.

"They sat down and ordered," said Cheng Jiaying.

"Ah! What are they talking about?" Yan Zhu stared at them at the entrance of the store.

"I don't know. I can't hear clearly." Cheng Jiaying turned around and asked Yan Zhu, "Should we go in?"

"No! We will definitely be discovered if we go in." Yan Zhu stamped her feet in annoyance. She subconsciously felt that these three people must be discussing something by staying here secretly.

Just as she was looking around, Cheng Jiaying suddenly cried out "Ouch!" A snowball hit her shoulder.

Yan Zhu and Cheng Jiaying turned around, and not far away Zhu Haoting and several other girls laughed at them. It had been snowing heavily for two days, which was a good opportunity for the children who rarely saw snow to have a snowball fight. Snowball fights were not allowed in the school, so the battlefield of the snowball fight was extended outside the school.

Yan Zhu's lifelong enemy, the monitor of her class, Zhu Haoting, hooked her finger at Yan Zhu and issued a challenge. This made Yan Zhu's heart burn with anger, and she immediately bent down to dig a handful of snow, quickly rolled a snowball, and threw it at Zhu Haoting.

Zhu Haoting dodged cleverly, and the girl next to her attacked quickly. Another snowball flew over and brushed past Yan Zhu's hair. After several rounds of back and forth, they were hit by several snowballs in a row, and Yan Zhu's competitive spirit was completely aroused. She immediately put her brother Yan Zhen's matter behind her. Now the only thing she wanted was to make Zhu Haoting, a woman, suffer.

The enemy outnumbered us, so Yan Zhu and Cheng Jiaying fought and ran at the same time, and soon they hid behind a wall for defense.

She signaled Cheng Jiaying to continue the attack. This time she wanted to make a huge, extra-huge snowball to give Zhu Haoting a good look. Gathering the snowflakes, she soon made a huge snowball. She took a breath and waited, Zhu Haoting!

She hurled the big snowball out.

"Ouch!"

Someone got hit.

Yan Zhu stuck her head out and took a look, and was frightened out of her wits.

The one who was hit by the snowball was not Zhu Haoting, but Teacher Li, the teacher of the Fourth Middle School, the teacher who was rumored to be the most terrifying evil spirit in the Fourth Middle School. Even Xiao Sheng, the top leader of the Fourth Middle School, would be terrified by Teacher Li.

Teacher Li covered his head with his teeth bared. He looked like he was hit hard. “Who did it?” He looked around for the murderer. “Who did it?!”

Zhu Haoting and others had already disappeared without a trace.

Yan Zhu was terribly scared.

She hit the most difficult teacher, Mr. Li. What should she do? Will Mr. Li go to her homeroom teacher? Will the school punish her? What will her parents think?

"Zhuzhu..." Cheng Jiaying looked at her with a pale face, she was also very scared.

I……

"I'm sorry, Teacher Li." A familiar voice sounded. Yan Zhu poked her head out, and her brother Yan Zhen appeared out of nowhere, bowing his head and apologizing to Teacher Li, "I'm really sorry, it was my carelessness."

"It's you again! Yan Zhen!"

"I'm sorry. I was wrong."

…

Yan Zhu returned home dejected.

It was indeed her brother. She would come out immediately to protect her brother if anything happened.

Why would I doubt him?

Her brother Yan Zhen was clearly protecting her silently behind her back just like before. He had always been that kind of brother.

At night, the more she thought about it, the more ashamed , and the more uneasy she felt.

She left her room and went to apologize to her brother. She shouldn't have doubted him so casually, nor should she let him take the blame.

She pushed open Yan Zhen's door.

Yan Zhen’s bedroom is exactly the same as before.

However, the cat was lying in the middle of the bed with a very arrogant attitude, as if the bed was its territory and throne.
