ninety-nine twelve

Half of the teachers in the grade group have gone to the city to correct the papers. The daily homework has become much easier. The remaining teachers are responsible for the substitutes for each class. Those who really can't take care of it will change to self-study. It will be like this for two weeks in a row.

While students self-consciously review, they are naturally happy to have a leisurely time. The school took this opportunity to put two arrangements related to the college entrance examination on the agenda, namely photo taking of ID cards and physical examination for the college entrance examination.

The one-inch photos taken uniformly will be used as photos of the admission ticket and graduation certificate, and accompany us all the way to the voluntary application and admission stages.In addition to the prescribed dress code, the school acquiesced in the thoughtfulness of how students can dress up that day. The trendy girls in the grade all wore makeup to some extent, and some even brought cosmetics. They hid in the back of the classroom and exchanged makeup with each other. The teacher saw They also turn a blind eye, and boys have nothing to dress up, at most, they can change their hairstyles and dress neatly.

The school invited the team from the photo studio to come to the door, and set up a shooting curtain in the hall of the auditorium. From the third class in the morning, each class took turns to take pictures.

Zhang Tianle felt very lonely at this time, he had never had a share in these group projects, but he was so stubborn, even if he didn't take pictures, he insisted on going for a walk with the whole class, saying that he wanted to see what was going on.We lined up at the back, and Zhang Tianle ran to the front to watch people take pictures, and came back after a while, to fiddle with my hair and arrange my hairstyle.

I turned my head away and scolded him disgustingly: "Don't overthrow it, it was pretty good before, but the more you mess it up."

"It's time for you to cut your hair again. You don't feel energetic when you take pictures with your eyebrows covered."

"That's it, hey, can you stop moving?" Zhang Tianle stretched out his hand dishonestly, and I simply knocked it off, "I will not take the spiritual route, I am happy."

I’m actually very bad at taking pictures, whether it’s a selfie or someone else’s photo of my trip here, I’m very bad at posing and making expressions, and the photos are ugly as hell.I am even more afraid of taking pictures in the form of ID photos, especially now that there are acquaintances in the class. When the photo is taken, a group of people are looking at you from the opposite side. Thinking about it makes my scalp tingle with embarrassment.

When it was almost my turn, I felt that my facial features were all stiff, so I went to sit down in front of the curtain, with a serious expression and a straight back. Zhang Tianle stood watching with his arms folded, and burst out laughing. Covering his mouth with a smile, he apologized for the interruption.

I glared at him and signaled him to stop messing around.

At this time, the photographer raised his head and said to me: "Smile, kid, you should be happy after graduation."

Zhang Tianle also followed closely: "That's right, that's right, just smile."

I kept a straight face, Zhang Tianle was teasing me all the time, I tried not to speak, I just hoped that the photographer would hurry up and take a few pictures and it would be over.Then Zhang Tianle stretched out his hand and made a gesture of heart to me. Finally, I couldn't hold back and grinned.

"Next!"

"What the hell am I doing?" I immediately stood up, walked up to the photographer and asked, "Isn't the photo of me smiling just now? Can I take a look?"

"Oh, I took a lot of pictures, everyone took a lot of pictures, we will choose the most suitable one when we go back, and don't crowd here after taking pictures."

Zhang Tianle put his arms around my shoulders, and echoed: "That's right, stop crowding here, let's go, go back to the classroom."

I got a little furious, and vented my anger on Zhang Tianle: "Hey, do you have ADHD?"

Zhang Tianle continued to smile, "What's the matter with me, I'll show you my heart, didn't you smile just now, why did you turn your face and deny anyone?"

"Don't take out your chicken feet and make it a shame. I knew that nothing good would happen if you were around."

"Why is there nothing good? It's so boring to have a straight face in all the ID photos. Just make you laugh and don't thank me."

I couldn't take it anymore, I was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so I walked two or three steps quickly and left him, listening to him laughing and calling me from behind.

A few days later, the photos were developed, and several girls in the class went to pick them up together, and distributed them to everyone one by one when they came back. I got the small paper bag in which the photos were stored, and when I took them out, I almost fainted.

Zhang Tianle grabbed my shoulder from behind, snatched the photo quickly, took a look at it, and burst out laughing loudly.

In the photo, I am upright, my eyes are looking at the camera, my hair is not too messy, I am just grinning brightly, I don’t know how I caught it, it just happened to be captured like a kindergarten kid who just finished a performance and took a group photo The elated expression on his face, not to mention not energetic, is simply terribly energetic.

I snatched the photo back, looked at it again, and was about to faint again. I cried and asked Zhang Tianle: "Do I really look like this?"

Zhang Tianle laughed so hard that his stomach ached, he lay on the table and answered me out of breath: "How can this be, this photo is [-] times cuter than your own."

I made a gesture to beat him up, and a few classmates who didn't know why heard the sound and gathered around to look at it, and passed the photo around, and they were all amused by my bright expression, and they all said it was a good photo.

I looked at the photo again, and another mouthful of old blood came out, okay, what a shit, who the hell wants to use this kind of photo to get into college.

Zhang Tianle said, "Give me one."

"No."

"Hurry up, don't be so stingy, let's talk less about five or six cards here, how many cards can be used for a few certificates, even if it is not enough, we will wash it later, hurry up, and give me one." Zhang Tianle grabbed If I don't let go, I want to grab it again.

"Don't think about it, it's impossible, this photo will turn into ashes in your memory." I squeezed the paper bag tightly in my hand and stretched my arms to prevent him from reaching me.

"It's good to turn it into ashes, then you have to give me a piece of paper, take it out and remember it every now and then." Zhang Tianle stood up as she spoke, and the whole person pressed up from behind, and the bright light in front of my eyes suddenly disappeared. It was dark, he locked me tightly from behind, I was so pressed by him that I had to bend down and bury my head under the desk, he got close to me, and lightly bit my ear.

I relaxed all over, and while I was in a daze, he took the photo bag from my hand smoothly.

Zhang Tianle has credit, and he said that if he wanted one, he would take one. He took one and temporarily clipped it to the back of his phone case, saying that it would not be lost. Then he glanced at my ear, and abruptly looked away.

I can control my mood and language, but I can't seem to control my ears. It's probably red and hot right now, otherwise half of my head would be burnt out.

Before he bit my ear, he whispered in my ear, "Baby is obedient."

The four words passed from that ear to his brain, numb half of his nerves, and then his teeth brushed lightly, setting fire to his reason.

I sat down again, threw the photo into the drawer, leaned back on the chair halfway up, casually touched the book from the desk, opened it, and then covered my face, the light was blocked again.In fact, this posture is not good. If I lean back, I will be closer to the person behind me, but if I lean forward on the desk and bury my face in my arms, it will be weirder no matter how I think about it.

The surroundings are still noisy, there is a gap in the curvature of the book, and a little light seeps in, and the other half of my awake head is still reminding me that this person cannot be trusted.

The physical examination was arranged on the next day. All shifts gathered in the lobby on the first floor of the Municipal People's Hospital at [-] o'clock in the morning to collect the physical examination forms, and then the staff assigned them to take them to do various items.

Zhang Tianle really doesn't need to come this day, and if he comes, it will only cause trouble, but he got up early without hesitation, and arrived at the hospital on time to gather. He was not embarrassed that he was not included in the medical examination form, and followed the few of us The men lined up outside various departments all the way.

The route of the crowd was similar, at the beginning we all crowded towards the simple surgery department, we didn't join in the fun, and went directly to the less crowded blood draw and internal medicine department.

My blood vessels are quite obvious. After I make a fist, I don’t need to tie a rubber tube. The blood vessels are already clearly visible. The little nurse who draws blood said that I like to draw my blood vessels the most, and the position can be tied with eyes closed.

Zhang Tianle probably thought she was very interesting. While I was drawing blood, he chatted with someone: "Don't stab him with your eyes closed. If you stab him badly, you have to pay me."

The little nurse was also happy after hearing it, "Then if I really hurt it, how can I compensate you?"

"If you don't say anything, let me beat you up."

I couldn't laugh or cry when I heard it from the sidelines, Zhang Tianle is really enough, this nurse looks like the kind of little girl who just joined the work not long ago, probably not much older than us, he said to beat her up without saying a word, it is really based on her strength Single body.

The little nurse didn't mind, she was still cheerful, she inserted the needle into the blood vessel accurately, slowly began to draw blood, and then asked naturally, "Are you two a couple?"

My arm trembled, and Zhang Tianle, who was leaning on the side, suddenly stood up straight. I didn't expect her to ask such a sentence, and no one dared to say anything for a while.

"Oh, what's there to be shy about?"

I was turbulent in my heart, but I didn't dare to let Zhang Tianle take up this conversation. Once he became serious, he couldn't speak mellow words, but he was handy when making people uncomfortable.

Don't talk nonsense, how can I be with him.

I tilted my head, raised the corners of my mouth and smiled at her, "Sister, you look at so many windows, and I came to you to draw blood, so why don't you say it's because you are beautiful, kind, and lovely?"

The little nurse was so happy that she pretended to be serious and said, "Don't be kidding me, kid, I'll puncture your blood vessel." Then she quickly pulled out the needle and pressed the needle hole with a cotton ball, "Okay, Hold on for a while."

The complexion of Zhang Tianle next to him was still not very good. Being misunderstood and being with a boy probably made him too uncomfortable. After thinking about it, I stood up and bent down, and said to the little nurse: "Sister, do you want to be with me? Think about me, I'm an adult, and I happen to be chasing you."

After hearing this, the little nurse laughed and patted me, "Don't play tricks, study hard, you, my sister has a boyfriend, and the boyfriend is very handsome, hum."

I suddenly realized "Oh", talked to her a few more words, and pushed Zhang Tianle to check the next item, but Zhang Tianle stood still. I pushed him several times before I could barely move. Looking at his face, it seemed Even worse than before.

There is nothing for men to do together. While waiting, they just huddle together to talk and chat. Internal medicine is an embarrassing project. Although you have everything and I have everything, but men love to talk in the direction of pornography Go, before it was our turn, we began to pick up each other's pants. I was successfully attacked, and my pants were pulled under my hips. My name appeared in the continuous booing: "噫— —Wu Haoyu's underwear is gray!"

I yelled a swear word, a little shameful, and tried my best to pick up other people's pants. When I was laughing and hugging a group of people, I was suddenly brought out by an arm. I looked back dissatisfied and found that It's Zhang Tianle.

He said in a bad tone: "Are you usually so boring, take off your pants and play?"

I was so excited that I didn't have time to pay attention to what he said, so I turned around and looked at him with a teasing smile, with a tit-for-tat tone that I couldn't detect myself: "Yeah, it's that boring. If you think it's boring, why not join me?" It’s interesting.” After I finished speaking, I dared to slap his butt, and he grabbed my hand back, as if touched by some terrible thing, staring at me with fire in his eyes, I I thought he would lose his temper, but he suppressed his anger, and finally threw me a vicious "Fuck", turned around and left, I don't know where he went.

I watched his back as he walked away with a kind of heart-cooling joy.

Two middle-aged female doctors are in charge of the ENT project. As soon as I sat down, I saw the aunt opposite pushed down her glasses, looked at me, and then expressed her opinion to herself: "Now These young boys here have to learn how to dress up like girls."

I was taken aback, not sure if she was talking about me, and then the aunt checked the items on the medical examination form one by one, and didn't say anything else, but after checking the ears, she said again: "OK Don't jingle things in your ears, lad."

I stiffened my neck a little and couldn't speak.

Coming out of the department, Zhang Tianle didn't know where he went and came back again. He waited for me at the door and greeted me nonchalantly, "Are you done?"

I glanced at the medical examination form, "Not yet, there is still a chest X-ray."

Zhang Tianle started queuing with me again.He still couldn't be completely nonchalant, but probably wanted to show good qualities, so even if he was in a bad mood, he didn't deliberately mock me anymore, he just didn't talk much.

But I know that I am getting more and more strange, I want to go back to the past, I don't know what to do, I hold each other evenly with him, tell him that I don't like him anymore, and I don't need him to engage in these gentle and considerate and compromise dramas.

"Zhang Tianle." I called him.

"Ah."

"What are you pretending to care about here?"

His expression was very surprised. It was useless to pretend to be stupid, because I no longer cooperated with him. I looked at him and smiled again, "It's not necessary."

"Forget it, Tianle, you think it's too easy to be a friend, and it's too difficult."

"If you can't go back, don't go back. If I don't go, where can I go?"

Finally it was his turn to be speechless round after round, and I was able to win the round.I reached out to unfasten the earrings I had made last Friday, and threw them into the trash can in the hallway.

"Stop making trouble."

Another flower was placed in the vase on the dinner table, fourteen gerbera, I don't know what it means.

The flowers given to girls on Girls' Day are one for each person, but now I can receive a whole bouquet. After so many days, it has not yet bloomed.When Zhang Tianle saw the flowers in the bottle back then, he put on a gesture, and his words were full of irony, but now he took the initiative to send flowers to me, contradicting himself.

After washing my face in front of the sink in the bathroom, I looked up in the mirror. The left earlobe was a little red, and there was a deep red depression in the middle. I wiped my face and threw the water from my hands into the sink irritably.In the living room there was that plush teddy bear on the sofa, and the sweater I took off a few days ago was thrown on the back of the chair. Everything was as indifferent as the vase of flowers on the table.

But I decided to get my ears pierced, Zhang Tianle didn't force me, I was so angry that I insisted.What I say and do is becoming less and less like myself. It’s not my fault that he has a sincere and innocent face when he unconsciously gives people the illusion. It’s my fault that I can’t make it clear. Little details that don't bother me.

He sent me flowers, gave me dolls, and used the trick of chasing girls on me, hoping that I would be happy, only the inexplicable black and white double evil, which made me misunderstand for a second, and secretly hid his school uniform before. I actually received a piece of clothing from him one day, and then I went to get my ears pierced. He was right. Since I wanted to be a substitute, wouldn't it be much easier to have traces of being paired with him?

We also had some wonderful moments, the ambiguity made people feel happy just right, as the one side of unrequited love, I hugged him and kissed him, no matter what, it was not a loss, as a friend, it was a big profit, but all All the intimacy should be done at the end, and it won't work if you do too much or think too much. As far as this is concerned, it's my fault.

This is a weird endless loop, he keeps pretending, I keep cooperating with him pretending, his efforts have completely exceeded my expectations, he tried hard to change his sexual orientation, to adapt to mine In this relationship, my mentality has deteriorated along with our relationship. While resisting and delusional, I have followed him to this point in a daze.

Invincible.
