Chapter 255 : A Terrorist Lives Downstairs from a Terrorist Denominator, Terrifying When You Think About It

"Fuck, Lin Li, you've got some skills."

Bai Bufan looked at the students from several classes who were being scolded by the freshman grade director and their homeroom teachers, feeling somewhat like he had narrowly escaped death.

After all, in the first few rounds, the culprits who led the applause were Lin Li and himself.

But when the principal started his fourth speech, he wanted to continue clapping, but was stopped by Lin Li.

—"Listen to your bro's advice, if we keep playing, we'll get scolded. The rhythm is already up, someone will take the lead instead of us. Now let's play something more meaningful."

He saw Lin Li lean forward, stick out his belly, put his hands behind his back, and issue a command: "The second floor must be built on top of the first floor."

What deafening content!

"General! General! General!" His body's instinctive reaction put Bai Bufan into loyalty mode, and he cried out excitedly.

"Wrong, it's Principal! Principal! Principal!"

Then things evolved into the current situation.

The grade director stepped in to maintain order, and the people who led the applause just now were scolded severely. The real culprit, Lin Li, hid his merit and fame.

"Isn't that obvious," hearing Bai Bufan's praise, Lin Li turned his head somewhat smugly, the corners of his mouth curling into a Nike swoosh: "You've just been an animal for too short a time. When you've been an animal for longer, you'll also have a sharp sixth sense like mine."

Bai Bufan felt a sense of sorrow and sighed:

"Lin Li, being a pure animal in the same era as you must be very sad."

"Those who respect and admire you can only look up to you like a high mountain for a lifetime. Those who envy and are jealous of you can never catch up. Those who hate and are hostile to you will scratch their hearts and livers."

Lin Li: "?"

Seems like he's praising me, not sure, let me listen again.

"Are you doing 'Sword Comes' here?"

(Translator's Note: "Sword Comes" (Jian Lai) is a popular Chinese web novel. Lin Li changes "Jian" (Sword) to "Jian" (Bitch/Despicable)).

Lin Li suddenly realized this was a quote praising Cao Ci in "Sword Comes", so he immediately got into character and looked at Bai Bufan:

"Although the foundation of your three realms of being an animal is still quite far from my previous level, I think you, Bai Bufan, have hope of following behind me."

Xue Jian: "This is a very high evaluation."

After finishing their lines, the three exchanged a glance and laughed loudly. They had finally found enough fun in this boring speech segment.

"Hahaha—"

"Hahaha—"

"Ha."

Wait O.o?

Lin Li and Bai Bufan suddenly stopped laughing and exchanged a glance.

—Why the fuck were there three people.

...

"So boring." Ding Sihan hugged the head of the white bear mascot costume in front of her, blocked a little bit of sunlight from her eyes with her palm, looked at the teacher chattering endlessly on the stage, and said to Chen Yuying.

"There's nothing we can do, just wait," Chen Yuying said with a smile.

Familiar laughter came from the very back of the class line, and Chen Yuying subconsciously turned her head to look.

"What are those two giggling about again?" Ding Sihan also turned her head, and after seeing clearly, she sighed: "If I had known, I would have gone to the back row to play with them. Listening to them do cross-talk must be more fun than standing here as punishment. Even Xue Jian is laughing, it must be very interesting."

"Eh? Xue Jian?"

When Lin Li and Bai Bufan stopped smiling, the smiles transferred to Chen Yuying and Ding Sihan's faces.

Then the two saw Lin Li walking towards them.

Does keeping someone in mind really bring a response?

"What's wrong?" When he got close, Chen Yuying asked curiously.

"Class Rep, do you know the risk diversification theory?" Hearing this, Lin Li tugged at the collar of his clown suit and spoke somewhat proudly:

"By dispersing important figures in different locations or vehicles, we avoid collective losses caused by a single event, ensuring that in extreme situations, the leadership of an organization, enterprise, or even a country will not be completely wiped out and can maintain normal operations."

"To give a classic example, it is said that only three people know the formula for Coca-Cola, and these three never take the same plane. The example might not be true, but it should help you understand."

"And Teacher Xue is well versed in this principle. He just realized that Bai Bufan and I, two figures so important to Class 4, actually appeared at the end of the class line at the same time during the sports meeting, a situation where good and bad people are mixed together, and terrorists might sneak into Nansang Middle School if we're not careful.

"Think about it, at this time, if a plane suddenly treated the two of us as the Twin Towers and attacked the back row of Class 4's line, then Bai Bufan and I would be in trouble at the same time.

"It's terrifying when you think about it. Once it happens, it will be an 'October 23rd' incident that shocks China and the world. Just thinking about this scene makes me tremble all over and feel lingering fear.

"So, to prevent Class 4 from being unable to operate without me and Bai Bufan, Teacher Xue told me to roll to the very front of the class line, far away from Bai Bufan."

Lin Li carefully and seriously explained the pros and cons to Chen Yuying and Ding Sihan, using both hands and mouth, full of sincerity, for fear that the two wouldn't understand.

Chen Yuying, Ding Sihan: "?"

After being bluffed for a moment, Chen Yuying and Ding Sihan both lowered their heads and started laughing.

This guy is at it again!

Why can he describe such a thing like this!

If this were a Chinese sentence-shortening question, the answer would probably be 'Teacher Xue told me to roll to the front', just such a simple thing, right?

Forget it, after all, it's Lin Li, so it's normal.

"Keep walking forward, go to the very front," Xue Jian urged from behind with a dark face.

"Teacher, can I just stand here?" Lin Li stayed beside Chen Yuying, looked at Xue Jian, and asked for permission.

The sun was so cold today, and Xue Jian's smile was so warm.

So warm that Lin Li shivered, and could only give the girls a look of "it's really a pity for you two" before continuing to roll forward.

...

"It seems that in Xue Jian's eyes, you are water, Bufan is sodium, and the two of you together make an explosion."

Wang Ze, the Toad Prince holding the class sign at the very front, smiled and commented after hearing Lin Li, who suddenly appeared behind him to support him, narrate the incident just now.

"Whatever, Ghana."

(Translator's Note: "Ghana" (jia na) sounds like "add sodium" (jia na)).

Lin Li first spoke like a bot, then frowned and corrected a very important matter: "How can I be water? Bufan must be water, I should be sodium."

"How so? Bufan has a lot of water? You've tried it? Damn it, keeping the good stuff to yourself!" Wang Ze teased upon hearing this.

"What is a creature like Bai Bufan, who is a boiling object (fei wu) even when turned on, if not water?" Lin Li asked back in surprise.

(Translator's Note: "Boiling object" (fei wu) sounds like "trash" (fei wu)).

I'm different. The result of me turning on is now... no, not turning it off doesn't count as turning it on, I haven't turned it on yet.

Wang Ze: "..."

"Good insult, I'll pass it on for you," Wang Ze smiled.

Time flies like an arrow, the sun and moon shuttle back and forth.

Finally, sincere applause rang out again. All the teachers had finished their speeches, and a student wearing a school uniform took the stage.

"On behalf of all athletes, I solemnly swear: In this school sports meeting, we will strictly abide by the rules of the competition, obey the referee's decisions, respect our opponents, respect the audience..."

"On behalf of all referees, I solemnly swear..."

After the oaths, the microphone returned to Principal Wang's hands.

"I announce that the 51st Campus Track and Field Sports Meeting of Nansang Middle School is officially open!"

Two colored smoke bombs shot up into the sky from both sides of the rostrum, and then more than ten peace doves representing good wishes appeared from nowhere and circled in the sky.

"Beautiful," Wang Ze took off his headgear to admire.

"I hope these pigeons weren't full when they left the cage," Lin Li was faintly worried.

"Thank you, it's suddenly not beautiful anymore." The threat of sky shit made Wang Ze silently put his headgear back on, turning his head and saying unluckily.

"I want to go to the dock at noon to get some fries."

"Those are fucking seagulls. But Lin Li, did you know that pigeons die after mating?" Wang Ze said.

"This isn't a fun fact, it's a wild fact, right? Who told you that? Pigeons even have to take turns incubating eggs, male and female," Lin Li casually questioned.

"But the few I used all died," Wang Ze said innocently.

Lin Li: "(；☉_☉)?"

So they mated with you?

Then they really deserved to die.

Of course, Lin Li wasn't saying the pigeons deserved to die.

The charm of statistics.

After the performance ended, the formations of each class loosened up and scattered in different directions for final preparations.

"Lin Li, Bai Bufan, you two come here for a moment." Xue Jian waved to the front and back of the class line.

"What's wrong, Teacher," Lin Li and Bai Bufan jogged over and asked.

"Wait a moment," Xue Jian pressed his hand down slightly, then shouted to the class:

"Are there any other boys willing to volunteer to help the class move the sun umbrellas, tables, and chairs?"

During the sports meeting, Nansang Middle School would allocate a small area in the spectator stands and the area outside the track to each class as a "base," so that the students and athletes of each class would have at least one place to rest during the sports meeting.

The sun umbrellas, tables, and chairs needed to be handled by the class themselves, but it was also very convenient. Needless to say about the tables and chairs, they didn't even need to go back to the classroom; they could just go to the activity classroom on the first floor to move them, and return them later.

The sun umbrellas didn't cost any money either. They could just go to the merchants at the school gate to borrow them. For those sun umbrellas covered in advertisements, many merchants were willing to lend them for free.

Class 4 had already borrowed one, and it was in the classroom.

Hearing the content of Xue Jian's call clearly, Lin Li and Bai Bufan exchanged a glance.

What do you mean 'also'?

"Teacher, are we already defaulted to participating in moving?" Although he felt he deserved it, Lin Li still wanted to ask.

Xue Jian glanced at Lin Li: "Usually, whether the class is taking out the trash or moving textbooks, aren't you two the most active?"

Lin Li blinked: "Because that's during class time."

Xue Jian looked at his watch: "Isn't it also class time now?"

Lin Li: "?"

It really is.

Reasonable, now I have to move them.

"You two definitely haven't paid attention to the area allocated to our class, so you won't know where to put them later. We'll come help too, and we can also assist in carrying chairs." Chen Yuying walked up with Ding Sihan and said with a smile.

"I care super much about our class, this is malicious slander. Class Rep, apologize," Lin Li retorted upon hearing this.

"Exactly, slander, apologize," Bai Bufan acted like a dog relying on its master's power.

"Then tell me, where is our area?" Chen Yuying gently tapped her cheek with the side of her phone, tilted her head, and asked with a smile.

"On the field," Lin Li answered confidently.

Chen Yuying: "..."

"Be more specific."

"On the field of Nansang Middle School."

It's specific, but the specific direction is wrong.

"See," Chen Yuying smiled and spread her hands.

"Then thank you for handling the umbrella, tables, and chairs, Yuying." With Chen Yuying in charge, Xue Jian was relieved.

Chen Yuying: "Okay, Teacher."

Lin Li: "Take care, Teacher."

Xue Jian, who hadn't even turned around yet: "..."

"I can also come help." At this time, Wang Yuezhi, who was originally preparing to go back and remove his makeup, walked over and volunteered.

"Great, Wang Yuezhi, do you know the location allocated to the class?" Chen Yuying asked upon hearing this.

"I know, Spectator Stand A4 Middle and Field West 7. I saved and memorized the diagram you sent to the class group!" Wang Yuezhi nodded, and even gave Lin Li a somewhat provocative look.

Details determine success or failure.

Countless details will weave an inescapable net. This is Wang Yuezhi's rule of love!

Win!

"That's great. Sihan, and Wang Ze, take off your costumes first and let Wang Yuezhi put them in our class area. You can't wear them to move things," Chen Yuying said happily.

Wang Yuezhi: "?"

"Arigato Wang Yuezhi-san. To be honest, wearing this Frog Prince costume for a long time in mid-October is a bit hot." Hearing this, Wang Ze immediately drilled out of the suit and simply put the toad headgear on Wang Yuezhi's head.

It was put on a bit crooked, knocking off Wang Yuezhi's red nose.

Ding Sihan, who also stepped forward to hand over her suit, saw this, picked it up, handed it to Wang Yuezhi along with the suit, and said gently: "Your clown nose fell off, Wang Yuezhi."

Wang Yuezhi: "TAT"

Looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, just to keep the tears from falling: "O-okay."

Holding the clothes and headgear, Wang Yuezhi nodded stiffly, turned around, and headed to Class 4's area.

His back looked somewhat desolate.

...

In the classroom on the first floor of the Art Building, many people were here stealing chairs.

Remember, a scholar's actions cannot be called stealing.

Lin Li and Bai Bufan, who had just arrived, narrowed their eyes.

They saw an acquaintance.

"Chen Tianming, why are you moving things here?" Lin Li grabbed Chen Tianming, who was passing by them, looking straight ahead and trying to pretend nothing happened while leaving with a table, and asked coldly.

"Moving a table," Chen Tianming laughed and answered.

"Which class are you moving it for?"

"Class 17."

"Which class are you in?"

"Class 17... the Class 4 downstairs from downstairs."

"Then do you know what area the Class 4 downstairs from downstairs of Class 17 was allocated for the sports meeting?"

"The field."

"Be more specific?"

"The field of Nansang Middle School."

"Then what area was Class 17 allocated for the sports meeting?"

"Spectator Stand B7 and the area 20 meters north of the long jump sandpit on the field."

Wang Ze and Bai Bufan on the side: ?

Lin Li sighed: "Is this Yao Qiaoqiao's order again?"

"What order, don't make it sound so unpleasant. It's Qiaoqiao's commission, commission, understand? Have you ever done Genshin Impact commissions? It's a request, a hope, a salvation!" Chen Tianming retorted.

"Sooner or later, you'll be played like a fiddle by Yao Qiaoqiao," Lin Li looked at Chen Tianming with pity and shook his head.

"Let me say it again, I am not being played like a fiddle by her. Spinning in circles is my personal hobby. I actually have my own plans," Chen Tianming frowned and retorted.

Lin Li: "(；☉_☉)?"

A personal hobby? Then that's great.

Lin Li approved.

"I'm going to move things first, we'll talk later." So Chen Tianming left carrying the table.

"Has Chen Tianming reached this stage? So fun, I want to raise one too." Ding Sihan, who hadn't dared to make a sound, gossiped excitedly at this time.

"Someone who abandoned Bai Bufan is now planning to raise Chen Tianming. Do you even know how to raise one? I won't agree," Lin Li sneered.

Bai Bufan: "?"

Your mom.

"But don't worry about it," Bai Bufan sighed. "According to our dorm night chats, Tianming is also a bit of 'one willing to beat, one willing to suffer'. He's considered clear-headed, but being clear-headed is also unlikely. How should I put it, he kind of enjoys it himself. After all, he hasn't lost anything himself, and even feels he's gained emotional value. Let him be."

"Amazing," Ding Sihan clicked her tongue.

"In a world that even has a creature like Lin Li, what else can be considered amazing," Bai Bufan cursed back.

Unfortunately, it wasn't very offensive.

"I'll go get the sun umbrella."

When Lin Li returned to the classroom and brought down the borrowed sun umbrella, everyone had also taken the things they needed to move and was ready to return to the field.

"You two just take one chair each. Don't take two, or your hands will lose strength later. There are still competitions in the afternoon." Seeing Ding Sihan and Chen Yuying each carrying a chair in both hands, Lin Li transformed into a super caring guy.

"We're not that fragile," Chen Yuying said, even lifting the chairs back and forth twice.

"It's fine, give me one." The sun umbrella was tied up, so Lin Li could easily carry it with one arm, and took a chair from Chen Yuying's hand with the other.

Chen Yuying wasn't polite, nodding: "Since you don't have any events today, I'll give it to you."

"I have one here too. Since you've already spoken, you can't just care for Yingbao, right?" Ding Sihan put down a chair even more impolitely, signaling that it had nothing to do with her anymore.

Lin Li already had a plan. He picked up the chair and buckled it upside down onto the table Wang Ze was carrying.

Wang Ze: "?"

Bai Bufan was fine.

The main reason was that Lin Li was relatively kind, and the secondary reason was that Bai Bufan, upon seeing Lin Li appear, immediately jogged away carrying a table, and was now ten meters away from the people in the class.

Wang Ze sighed: "Lin Li, do you want to guess when my event is?"

"What event are you participating in again?" Lin Li asked upon hearing this.

Wang Ze: "?"

So you never even cared about the event at all?

Reasonable.

Wang Ze walked for a while.

Suddenly turned his head: "Class Rep, do you know what event I'm participating in?"

Chen Yuying's smile is really beautiful.

But why is she only smiling?

So you only remembered the time of Lin Li's event too, right?

Wang Ze was relieved.

This is nothing more than an adulterous couple, male thieves and male prostitutes.

Bai Bufan was the first to arrive at the class area. It was easy to recognize because there was a clown standing there all alone.

"Wang Yuezhi, go wash your face. Having paint on your face for too long is bad for your skin," Chen Yuying said to Wang Yuezhi as she approached carrying a chair.

Eh?

Wang Yuezhi stood at attention as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

This is caring, right? This is indisputable caring, right?!

"O-okay! Thank you for caring, I'll go remove it right now!" Wang Yuezhi nodded vigorously and walked towards the dorm.

Clown? Fuck being a clown, I'm not being a clown anymore!

Whoever dares to say I'm a clown again, I'll beat him into a dog!

"Then do I have to remove my makeup too? My pretty face can't get hurt," Lin Li, who was squatting and setting up the sun umbrella, looked up and asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, I was very careful to use primer when I did your makeup, and the cosmetics on your face are very good, so you don't need to worry too much," Chen Yuying shook her head.

"Then I'm relieved, because you know—"

"Shut up, stop being narcissistic," Ding Sihan immediately interrupted Lin Li's spellcasting.

"Damn it."

In a direction no one cared about.

Wang Yuezhi silently took out the clown nose from his pocket—which, for some unknown reason, often fell off at the right time—stuck it on his nose, and gave himself a light slap:

"Woof woof."
