As a teacher at Nefaria High School in Philadelphia, John Harper felt his intelligence was insulted.
In Harper's opinion, the one who "insulted" his IQ was the Chinese student in front of him - Su Feng.
"You mean, you encountered a street gunfight on the way to school, and after the gunfight, you saved a citizen who was shot several times and you didn't know him. For this, you were late for two whole classes?" This was perhaps the most bizarre reason for being late that Harper had ever heard in his life.
"Yes, teacher." The 16-year-old Su Feng had a calm expression. No matter how Harper stared at Su Feng's eyes, all Harper could see was an emotion called calmness and composure...
“That’s ridiculous!”
Reason told Harper that the Chinese student in front of him must be lying. He must be worried that he would give him a zero in the final exam, so he made up such an absurd excuse for being late.
However, Harper, who had seen students lie countless times, knew very well that a liar could not be so calm and frank.
Moreover, after noticing that Su Feng's clothes, shoes, and trouser legs were all covered in blood , Harper felt that this was an absurd fact...
Could it be true?
After all, behind one lie there are often countless lies. So, for the first time in his teaching career, Harper, who was ridiculed as the "bald devil" by the students of Nefaria High School, actually allowed a student to continue teaching after he was late...
The students in Su Feng's class were stunned.
The black guy Demar, who was closest to Su Feng, looked at Su Feng with admiration and said, "Dude, your excuse for being late is so cool. And the blood on your body, can you tell me how you came up with such an excellent excuse in such a short time and made such a perfect layout?"
Su Feng smiled bitterly helplessly. He ignored Demar and silently took out a notebook from his schoolbag.
Is it ridiculous?
It's quite ridiculous.
"Reality... is indeed too absurd ." Su Feng muttered to himself.
However, this is the reality.
Cruel, indifferent, and sometimes even a little unreasonable.
You know, compared to the bizarre encounter in the morning, it took Su Feng two whole weeks to digest the sudden appearance in front of him...
Reality.
For most people, 2020 is definitely a magical year. Su Feng, who has never made any contribution to society in his life, never dreamed that he would really wait for the day when the whole country would become "homebodies" together...
As long as you stay at home, it is the greatest contribution to society, and Su Feng is one of these "homebodies" who choose to contribute to society without hesitation...
Then, at four o'clock in the morning when he was staying at home, Su Feng saw a piece of news that shocked him. It was so bizarre that Su Feng thought he was hallucinating...
And then, something even more absurd happened...
…
“Ding ding ding…”
Just as Su Feng was lost in his memories, the bell for the end of get out of class suddenly rang.
Because of his bizarre reason for being late, Su Feng, a nobody in the class, suddenly became a big star.
Some people came to ask him about the details of what happened in the morning, some were curious about why he was so calm, and some wanted to know the inspiration for his excuse for being late...
Of course, Su Feng knew that there were probably not many people who believed that the reason for his lateness was true.
Those students who came to ask for details just wanted to hear how Su Feng would make it all happen.
As for the remaining bloodstains on Su Feng's body, these "Sherlock Holmes" believed that they were prepared by Su Feng in advance.
Therefore, Su Feng simply didn't bother to explain.
"Su, come here." After another class ended, just as Su Feng was thinking about how to get rid of this group of "Sherlock Holmes", suddenly, John Harper returned to the classroom.
What is different from the previous stars is that this group of "Sherlock Holmes" changed their attitudes faster than turning the pages of a book.
Suddenly, everyone chose to keep their distance from Su Feng. Not far from Su Feng, Demar even said with a sly smile: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the 'Bald Devil'. Su Feng is going to be in trouble this time."
The classmates beside him also cast gloating expressions towards Su Feng.
Saonian, you are too young!
How could such a weird reason fool Harper?
"Su, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you just now. You are the pride of our Nefaria!" Just as Su Feng walked in front of John Harper, the somewhat fat white teacher suddenly hugged Su Feng.
this……
Strongman locks up the man?
Harper was short, and seeing his freckled nose rubbing against his chest, Su Feng suddenly felt a little nauseous...
The whole classroom exploded instantly.
And DeMar, who was originally gloating over Su Feng's misfortune, was stunned where he was.
"Classmates, I hope we can applaud Su at this moment. We should pay the highest respect to this hero of Nefaria!" After hugging Su Feng, John Harper said to the students in the classroom.
Most of the students clapped almost subconsciously, with their expressions still at the stage of surprise.
"Just now, I received a call from the course instructor, who told me that the police are looking for a Chinese student from Nefaria High School..."
"Because just this morning, a shooting occurred near Market Street. A citizen fell to the ground after being shot several times. While people were running away, a calm and brave person stood up."
"He called the police immediately and helped the injured in a timely manner, constantly encouraging the injured to hold on. It was with his help that the injured held on until the arrival of medical personnel..."
"And this calm, brave and courageous person is my student, your classmate, Su." After saying this, Harper looked at Su Feng with eyes full of respect.
The United States, a country of "freedom, peace, and democracy", does not encourage or advocate courageous acts. However, as Harper told Su Feng the details of what happened in the morning, Su Feng's classmates were shocked...
"Oh my God, he can still come to school after something like this?"
"Isn't he too calm?"
“Are all Chinese people so brave?”
"Isn't he Superman?"
Looking at the classroom that was completely in chaos, it was now Su Feng's turn to be confused... Because although what John Harper said was indeed the fact that Su Feng encountered this morning, but... Su Feng remembered that he did not leave his name at that time!
You know, as a three-good student who grew up under the red flag and was deeply influenced by the Chinese ideology, Su Feng has always done good deeds without leaving a name.
Well, Su Feng did not leave his name, but he forgot that he was wearing the uniform of Nefaria High School... and he was the only Chinese international student in the entire Nefaria High School.
"Su, please allow me to express my highest respect to you. Of course, I think you may not have time to attend class today because you need to rest, and the police also need your assistance in the investigation." John Harper looked at Su Feng with a caring look and said.
Su Feng spread his hands, his expression remained calm.
"Is he a monster?" Looking at Su Feng, whose expression did not fluctuate at all, Demar suddenly had the idea of ​​visiting China after graduation...
…
"Su, are you OK?" Officer Reiner asked, looking at the Chinese student who appeared in front of him.
"Yes, officer. I can start anytime." Su Feng said calmly while looking at Reiner.
Reiner took a deep breath. He had to admit that the child in front of him was much calmer than most of his peers. Even Reiner, who had rich experience in detective cases, could not help but be surprised.
Although Reiner had roughly learned about the shooting that happened in the morning from his colleagues, he still couldn't believe that a 16-year-old student could be so calm in such a chaotic situation in the morning...
"According to our investigation, a man in black fired several shots at an ordinary citizen, and the scene fell into chaos. From the surveillance footage of a nearby supermarket, we can see that a Chinese student was not far from the shooting scene..."
"He chose to hide at the first moment, as it was a blind spot for attack. Then, after the suspect fled the scene, the Chinese student promptly used a phone at a nearby convenience store to call the police, and provided us with the direction in which the suspect fled and described the suspect's clothing and appearance..."
"After confirming that it was safe, he stepped forward to help the injured. According to a citizen at the time, the Chinese student had been encouraging the citizen who was shot..."
"Throughout the entire process, even our experienced police officers may not be able to do as well as he did."
"Okay, Su, now you can slowly recall everything that happened this morning. The more detailed the better." After carefully observing Su Feng for a few seconds, Reiner suddenly spoke.
The entire process of assisting the police investigation went very quickly, because Su Feng clearly stated everything that happened this morning. However, Reiner noticed that the Chinese student hesitated when signing at the end.
It was Su Feng's hesitation that reminded Reiner that the Chinese student in front of him was just a child after all.
"Don't worry, kid, you are an eyewitness, and the murderer has been arrested by us. I think you can relax a little." Reiner comforted Su Feng at the time.
Well... Actually, what Reiner didn't know was that the reason why Su Feng hesitated was because he saw the date on the signature...
May 28, 1994.
…
Considering that Su Feng is still a child, the school granted Su Feng a one-week vacation so that he can adjust himself at home. The school also told Su Feng that if he needs psychological counseling, the school will help him contact them as soon as possible.
But for some reason, both John Harper and Officer Reiner believed that this child probably didn't need any psychological counseling...
His heart...is made of steel.
"Alas, it really takes some time to accept this new identity." After returning to the apartment on Market Street, Su Feng thought with emotion.
“Damn, who can understand how I feel when I suddenly change from a 90s person to a 70s person!”
"Why didn't I finish watching Joy of Life before? Now I have to wait for more than 20 years to watch the last few episodes."
After changing and washing, Su Feng, who couldn't sit still, decided to play some ball to relax.
Otherwise, if I continue like this, I will definitely get depression.
Sure enough, whether it was 2020 or 1994, Su Feng’s favorite thing was basketball.
And you know what, after confirming that he had traveled back to 1994, and learning through the Internet in the 1990s that the history of the world he was in was exactly the same as his previous life, Su Feng actually dreamed of becoming a basketball star, making it to the NBA, and marrying a beautiful, rich woman in this life.
But reality is reality after all, Su Feng also knows that his basketball level in his previous life was at most that of an amateur, so such thoughts are only limited to the side.
After all, looking at the entire book industry, only Shui Duanqiao, that idiot author, dared to write a protagonist as cool as Lin Yi in "The No. 1 Cheat in Basketball"...
However, for Su Feng, who is crazy about basketball, playing basketball is definitely the best way to relax.
After all, it was a time travel and a gunfight, so even Su Feng had to take it slow...
" How can I survive in an age without DOTA and Auto Chess?" Su Feng thought as he walked to a basketball court near Market Street with a basketball in his arms.
For the United States, a country known for its basketball, it is not difficult to find a basketball court. In the United States, you don’t have to worry about a bunch of dancing aunties competing with you for the court.
Perhaps because it was still class time, when Su Feng arrived at the basketball court, he was the only one on the court.
Touching the basketball in his hand and looking at the basket in front of him, Su Feng smiled slightly...
Next, there is a set of cool operations.
For Su Feng, a die-hard Kobe fan, it doesn't matter whether he scores or not, but he must look good.
Twist the waist, kick the legs, stay in the air, and attack.
This is definitely a very cool and cool backward shot.
Of course, for such a handsome and standard fadeaway, the basket is naturally...
Bang!
Choose to refuse!
However, at the moment the basketball bounced, Su Feng's mouth suddenly turned into an O shape.
If John Harper and Officer Reiner saw Su Feng's expression at this moment, they would definitely be surprised.
Because Su Feng didn't have facial paralysis?
Su Feng was stunned.
Regardless of how far the basketball rolled, Su Feng looked at his hands. After patting his head to confirm that everything was correct, he looked at the scene that suddenly appeared in front of him and fell into deep thought...
