Chapter 7 Group Fight
Xu Xilin had no right to interfere with Wu Tao's personal grudges against anyone, but he still acted in his name, which was very unfriendly.
It was Xu Xilin's turn to be on duty early Monday morning, but he brought a bag of fruits and a bag of snacks to share with his team members. He made an excuse that "the alarm clock was broken and I didn't get up," and apologized with a grin, making his classmates happy and no longer cared about his laziness.
After finishing, he absentmindedly opened the English textbook, picked a page at random, and joined the large group of people who were "buzzing" like chanting a sutra. At the same time, he was wondering what Wu Tao and the others were planning - because this Dou Xun was like the spirit of the spider plant at the back window of the classroom. It seemed as if he had taken root under his feet and basically grew in the classroom, and he would not move easily.
Whether it's Li Bozhi or Wu Tao, these little hooligans actually bully the weak and fear the strong. They would never dare to bully her beloved baby in public under Qilixiang's nose.
While Xu Xilin was thinking, he turned around and glanced at Dou Xun. Unexpectedly, Dou Xun was so sensitive that he noticed it! Before Xu Xilin had time to feel embarrassed, Dou Xun attacked him viciously with his eyes.
"Fuck," Xu Xilin was inexplicably slapped in the face. He turned around angrily and thought, "Who cares about you? You can do whatever you want."
Soon, Xu Xilin forgot about Dou Xun and was completely occupied by the afternoon physical education class - there was only one physical education class on Monday and Friday afternoons, and the one on Friday would probably be used for the monthly exam. As a result, the activity time on Monday became even more precious.
During the break, Xu Xilin ran to the school team three times and his legs became thin. He finally managed to stop the coach and shamelessly book a basketball court. But when he went out after the second class, he was surprised to see Qilixiang coming downstairs with a lesson plan, as if she wanted to take the sports activity for herself without any moral obligation!
Xu Xilin turned around and ran, rushing into the classroom in two steps: "Luo Bing, Luo Bing!"
Luo Bing was concentrating on his chemistry homework, guessing at a few small bottles. He had only written half of the chemical formula when he was frightened by Xu Xilin.
"Qilixiang has gone down the mountain," Xu Xilin said quickly, with one hand on her desk, "The people need your protection, squad leader, it's time to demonstrate your sense of responsibility as a squad leader... Damn, big sister, why are you still plotting against me? What if I can't erase it!"
While Luo Bing was talking, the girl sitting next to him took out a small bottle of nail polish and drew a small peach heart on his thumb that was resting on the table. She looked up and smiled at him: "Hey, try a color."
Xu Xilin had no time to argue with her, because he could already smell the "mosquito-repellent coil" smell on Qilixiang: "Hurry up, hurry up, come on, it's up to you!"
As soon as Qilixiang entered the classroom, she was surrounded by several hard-working students led by Luo Bing. Each of them held a physics workbook and spontaneously lined up to ask questions.
Normally during self-study classes, math and physics teachers would receive this kind of treatment when they entered the room. They had basically become accustomed to this kind of fan meeting-like scene, and Qilixiang didn't care. After answering a bunch of homework questions, she looked up and saw that more than half of the people in the class had run away!
Luo Bing faced the teacher's doubts and answered innocently: "Isn't it the upper body that is doing the exercises?"
Qilixiang: “…”
Xu Xilin called his friends to occupy the basketball court, and he was in a very happy mood - except that everyone who met him would ask: "Commander, what do you have painted on your nails?"
I happened to meet Wu Tao and Li Bozhi talking outside the stadium. The two of them were exchanging cigarettes like underground workers.
Xu Xilin was holding a basketball, and in his hand was a spare one that he had dug out from the equipment room. He bumped Wu Tao's back with the basketball and nodded to Li Bozhi: "Everyone is here today, do you want to play the whole game?"
Wu Tao looked at him and shook his head: "You guys go play, I have something to do today."
Xu Xilin was immediately confused. They finally managed to escape from under Qilixiang's nose and snatch this precious activity class. Now they just said they didn't want to play? It was normal for others not to play, after all, the exam was coming up and they had to review, but Wu Tao always took the lead! What's the difference between this and a glutton refusing to eat the delicacies that were delivered to his mouth, or a pervert pushing away a beautiful woman who threw herself into his arms?
"Oh, okay then." Xu Xilin dribbled the ball forward a few steps, and suddenly he felt something was wrong. He took the ball in his hand and looked back at Wu Tao.
It happened that Wu Tao was also looking at him secretly. Their eyes met, and Wu Tao looked away as if he was guilty of a crime.
Something is very wrong!
Xu Xilin kept thinking about the basketball court, and suddenly remembered that when he ran out of his seat with the ball, Dou Xun didn't seem to be in his seat. Lao Cheng, who came over, threw his coat on the basketball stand and ran over shouting, "I can only play half a class today, and the answers to this issue of the math porn book haven't been released yet."
Xu Xilin threw a ball to him: "You guys play first, I... I have a stomachache."
"Ah?" Lao Cheng took the basketball in confusion. "What kind of monster is sealed on your nails? And why are you squatting in the toilet with a basketball in your arms? Is it convenient for you to exert force? Hey!"
Xu Xilin ignored him and walked away quickly.
Xu Xilin went back to the original route from the basketball court and saw from afar Wu Tao and Li Bozhi and a few others walking towards the second teaching building.
The second floor of the teaching building is a comprehensive activity center, the first floor is a music lecture hall, the second floor is an art classroom, and the third floor is a computer room that is locked all year round. Judging from the course content, it can be seen that the entire building is just for decoration and is rarely visited all year round.
Xu Xilin was often late, and every time he was late he had to jump over walls and fences, and walk through various small paths by flying over eaves and walls. He was so familiar with every nook and cranny of the campus that he could compete with the weasel and wildcat team living here.
There was a narrow passage that was only wide enough for one person to pass next to the Grade 1 multimedia building opposite the second teaching building. Xu Xilin walked in with ease and saw a thin and small boy pacing nervously at the door of the second teaching building.
Before he could remember who the boy was, he saw that as Wu Tao and the others walked over, the boy had become stiff as a human stick with his hands and feet, standing there expressionlessly. This stupid look somehow provoked Li Bozhi, and Li Bozhi walked up to the boy and kicked him in the stomach without saying a word.
The boy sat down on the steps behind him, squatting down and holding his stomach.
Xu Xilin was startled at first, and instinctively took a step forward, but only one step.
He didn't know the person who was beaten, but he knew the one who beat him. He didn't know what kind of grudge this was between the group of boarding students, so he naturally sided with his relatives and not the others - he chose to watch coldly.
On the second floor of the teaching building, Wu Tao pulled Li Bozhi away, looked around, then stepped lightly on the boy who was being beaten with his toes, bent down and asked, "Did you see that boy go up here?"
The boy who was beaten nodded tremblingly, then stretched out a pale hand and pointed upstairs.
What's upstairs? Xu Xilin, who was far away, frowned and glanced up along the direction of his finger. He couldn't hear what they were saying because he was far away.
Wu Tao winked at Li Bozhi, then took the lead with his hands in his pockets, striding towards the second teaching building. His followers followed in one after another, and when they entered the room, they all greeted the boy curled up on the ground, either with a punch or a kick, as if they were paying their dues.
Then Li Bozhi, who was walking at the end, took something out of his pocket and threw it at the boy's face, hitting him right in the face. The boy whimpered, covered his face and bent down.
The hidden weapon fell to the ground, it was a brass key.
Li Bozhi smiled crookedly: "You can come back and live here today. Do you know how to behave next time? Don't need anyone to teach you."
The boy covered his face and was speechless.
Li Bozhi sneered: "You look stupid."
Then he stretched and caught up with the main group.
Dou Xun was smoking in the extremely quiet toilet on the second floor of the teaching building.
In the teaching building where classes were usually held, a teacher found cigarette ash in the trash can when using the student toilet. He then urged the school to install a smoke alarm in the teaching building to catch male students who smoked. Dou Xun was new there and had a very bad relationship with others. No one told him about it, and he would have been caught several times if he had not run fast.
After several experiments, he found that only the smoke alarm in the toilet on the second floor of the teaching building was broken. Because it was rarely visited and no one repaired it, he could feel free to use the smoke alarm here.
After the routine relaxation, Dou Xun washed his hands, put a piece of chewing gum in his mouth, and was about to return to the classroom when he suddenly saw Wu Tao and a group of people walking in from outside in the mirror.
Dou Xun reached into his pocket, turned off the MP3 player, slowly turned around, and looked directly at Wu Tao, who was in the lead, without saying a word.
His eyes were straightforward and sharp, and he had an aura of someone who was not easy to mess with. He was completely different from the thing downstairs that could only chirp when kicked. Wu Tao hesitated for a moment.
Fortunately, at this moment, Li Bozhi behind him suddenly spoke up: "Is this the guy?"
As soon as he said this, it seemed like a signal. Several people stood in a fan shape, locked the door, and blocked Dou Xun in the middle of the toilet.
Wu Tao responded and looked back. His team members were all there. He immediately felt more confident: "It's him."
Dou Xun sneered without moving.
"Do you know why I'm looking for you today?" In order to show that he was not being unreasonable, Wu Tao listed the crimes against Dou Xun, "You beat my brother in vain?"
Dou Xun opened his mouth and answered clearly and crisply: "It's not in vain, how much is it?"
Wu Tao: “…”
Dou Xun was always taciturn, and Wu Tao had not expected that he could be so sarcastic and sharp-tongued. He was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to continue the conversation in a more impressive way.
"He acts like he's worth a fortune. Which shabby school did he transfer from? He's covered in chicken feathers. Hasn't he learned how to behave?" Li Bozhi drooped his eyelids. "Let's take the trouble to teach him a lesson."
"I may not be able to learn it," Dou Xun said expressionlessly, "It would be great if you could teach me how to bark."
Before he finished speaking, the person in the corner rushed over with a shout of "your mother", grabbed the mop from the corner, and smashed it directly at Dou Xun's head. Dou Xun raised his arm to block his face, and took a hit with his forearm, then grabbed the corner of the mop with his backhand, and grabbed the other person's short hair while he was trying to grab it.
If one wants to easily overthrow a large group of people when being beaten up, one must have the ability of a martial arts master or an armed special police. Dou Xun certainly does not have this ability, but he is experienced in dealing with group beatings - while pulling the mop brother's hair, he dragged the other party back to the corner, quickly retreating to a relatively narrow place to avoid being attacked from the front and back, and then tensed his muscles, willing to be beaten, and focused on beating the one in his hand to death.
High school boys don't have any skills when fighting. Whoever is ruthless and dares to take risks will win.
Whoever gets scared or cowardly first will be finished.
Dou Xun pulled out a layer of hair with blood roots from the mop boy's scalp, and the pain made him almost cry. Dou Xun was very ruthless and hit wherever it hurt and was soft. The toilet, which had been deserted for years, was suddenly filled with the howling of ghosts and wolves.
"Hold him! Just stand there and watch!" Li Bozhi yelled with veins bulging. Dou Xun kicked over a trash basket in the corner, and a basket of worn toilet paper rolled out and flew onto Li Bozhi's white sneakers.
Li Bozhi: "Fuck your mother!"
He picked up the mop that he had just thrown aside in a rage, stepped on the wooden pole and the dry mop strip, separating them from each other, and then swung the stick at Dou Xun. Dou Xun blocked it with his arm, but the wooden pole slipped off his arm and rubbed against his head. His head made a buzzing sound, and he involuntarily let go of his hand.
After being hit by the stick, Dou Xun was immediately furious and thought to himself: "I will kill him!"
At that time, he didn't care about the principles of a group fight and was about to pounce on Li Bozhi and fight him to the death.
The unfortunate fellow who had just been beaten fell to the ground, crying: "Beat him, beat him!"
Wu Tao immediately came to his senses and ordered his lackeys to go forward and hold Dou Xun down.
At this moment, the locked door was kicked hard from the outside. The first kick failed, and then another kick followed.
The door bolt was a small piece of iron with rusty screws. It broke after being violently kicked two or three times by someone outside - the door was wide open and an old basketball rolled in.
Xu Xilin stood at the door with a gloomy face, ignoring others, and only said to Wu Tao: "Wu Tao, is this appropriate for you?"
