"Well, these are what Ma Lisheng told me. I don't know whether it's true or not."
"Is Ma such a gossipy person?"
Li Jinjin covered her mouth with her hands as she smiled, her voice pinched and sounding a bit artificial. Zhou Dahong thought of the rumors about Li Jinjin and smiled awkwardly, as if to agree with her, and continued.
"Old Ma is like this. He always likes to talk about random things. Yesterday he even told us about some rat utopia."
"Brother Zhou, what is that? Anime?"
Li Jinjin covered her mouth and smiled gently, as if she was very interested in this.
"It's not anime, I remember it was some kind of experiment."
"Yes, Sister Qin, have you heard of it?"
"I saw the post, I remember it was supernatural."
When Zhou Dahong heard that Qin Zhixin actually knew this, he was a little excited and spoke quickly.
"I've only heard it from others, so I don't know if it's true or not. In the last century, an American scientist designed a city for rats. He built a utopia specifically for rats in a farm warehouse. It was a rectangular space several meters long, wide, and high, with more than ten living areas evenly divided from the center. Each area had its own living space, independent water and food supplies, and the entire warehouse was kept at a constant temperature, neither too hot nor too cold. He calculated based on preliminary experiments that this rat city could accommodate several thousand rats."
"Hey, that sounds dirty."
When Li Jinjin heard the words "thousands of mice", she seemed to be stressed. She hugged her arms across her chest as if she was afraid, but she deliberately gathered the two pieces of flesh on her chest to make the cleavage as deep as possible, and her eyes secretly glanced at Qin Zhixin.
"It's just a rat. The ones that eat garbage in the city are dirty, but field rats are not."
Qin Zhixin waved her little hand carelessly, looking quite heroic and unconcerned. However, with her pretty little face and well-proportioned figure, she seemed indescribably charming.
Zhou Dahong just glanced at Li Jinjin, and his eyes fell on Qin Zhixin again.
"Because the rat city had ample food and no natural enemies, the rat population should have quickly reached the city's capacity. However, the result was unexpected. The rat population fell far short of the designed limit, and with no disease or food shortages, all the rats in this utopia died within a few years. With the initial normal reproduction of the rats, the population grew at an expected rate. Roughly every few months, the rat population doubled. However, a hierarchical structure similar to that of human society soon emerged in the rat population.
The higher the rank of the group, the more abundant resources it received and the faster it reproduced. However, this situation didn't last long. The dominant rats took over the advantageous nesting areas. Once more than a dozen designated habitats were occupied, the dominant rats began to drive the weaker rats out of their territories. These weaker rats were mostly from the new generation, and they were often driven out because their original territories were full.
These new generation mice couldn't find their place in society, and no one was willing to take them in. It was as if they didn't belong in this mouse utopia, having lost themselves in it. As time went on, the behavior of these new generation mice became increasingly bizarre, and they began to attack their own kind, without even resisting.
Female mice no longer relied on males and became independent. Male mice stopped reproducing and sought out places far above the ground to live. This caused the males, who were once responsible for protecting their territories, to become increasingly disengaged. Females became extremely aggressive, frequently changing their habitats and stopped reproducing. Ultimately, reproduction in this mouse utopia ceased completely.
Qin Zhixin had read the original post and didn't care at all.
"This is just a conspiracy theory on reddit."
"Sister Qin, what is reddit?"
"There's a forum abroad that's full of crazy, stupid, egg-white men. The most popular posts are either about their wives running off with Mexicans or their wives running off with black people. They might as well change their name to greendit."
"So do you think this is true or false?"
Qin Zhixin rolled her eyes at Zhou Dahong, looking very charming.
"It has to be fake. Rats don't have that kind of intelligence. This is a complete allusion to human society at the time."
"I feel the same way."
Although Li Jinjin wasn't interested in the topic, she still came over and forced her way into the discussion. She rubbed against Zhou Dahong's side and pressed her breasts against his back, causing Zhou Dahong's face to flush red with embarrassment. Qin Zhixin glanced at her, feeling that this girl was trying to show off to her. This inexplicable female competition behavior was also ridiculous, so Qin Zhixin didn't bother to pay any attention to her.
"I remember the original post saying the purpose of the experiment was that American officials wanted to use animal behavior to study how human life would change as population density increased. So why not go to chicken farms? Don't chicken farms naturally have higher population densities? Or pig farms? Pigs are much smarter than rats, and there's a social division of labor among pigs."
"Xinxin, are pigs smart?"
"Pigs are smarter than dogs, okay?"
Qin Zhixin was a little annoyed with Li Jinjin. She felt that this girl seemed to be hostile to her.
"Different societies at similar stages of development will have similar fertility structures. For example, the first to experience a population fertility gap were relatively wealthy old Europe and the United States. Look at that Reddit post about male rats that failed to compete and were forced to gather in the center of the field, where they stopped competing for territory and mates and instead engaged in mutual harm. They didn't resist much when attacked, and their behavior became passive, unsocial, and they became angry and indulged in sexual activity. There was also an increase in fake same-sex couples. Isn't that a straightforward statement? Isn't it a metaphor for these old white men themselves? Later, I remember it mentioning that male rats in nests could no longer defend their territories, so some female rats replaced them, resulting in a decrease in fertility. The more violent female rats went crazy and attacked and even harmed their pups. This is also a classic metaphor. They're overly chauvinistic, believing that their jobs were squeezed out because of women. As for the female rats attacking their pups, look at South Korea. There, feminism is like a cult, killing male babies and chemically castrating male children."
Qin Zhixin spoke nonchalantly, and what she said made Zhou Dahong feel a little terrified.
"Is South Korea so crazy?"
"They're the ones who deserve it. They're complaining every day, making false accusations everywhere, and they've caused chaos in other countries. I think we should have taken strong action long ago! Drag them to the 38th parallel to clear mines with human flesh."
"Oh yeah, last time I saw the news, there was a Korean nurse who went to Australia and molested a little boy and posted about it. She was treated like a hero by Korean women. I couldn't understand it at the time."
Zhou Dahong remembered something and added.
"Tsk, these guys are just bullies who only dare to attack children."
Qin Zhixin's pretty face was full of disgust.
"Oh, yeah, I felt something was wrong when I heard Lao Ma talk about this last night. Sister Qin, you even called it a conspiracy theory. To me, this story is just like that Soviet sleep deprivation experiment—it's hearsay and then exaggerated. Maybe there was an experiment, or maybe all the mice really died, but I suspect it was bacteria or a virus or something. It's just like the recent bird flu. Chickens are dying in droves at the chicken farms in my hometown, and the chicken owners are losing so much money. No one buys the remaining chickens at two yuan apiece."
Qin Zhixin had a playful expression.
"Although sick chickens are required to be buried, that doesn't necessarily mean no one will buy them. I feel like there's been an overabundance of chicken dishes in the cafeteria lately."
The three of them walked and chatted all the way to the downstairs of the senior high school building. The seniors were in class, so they subconsciously lowered their voices to avoid disturbing them.
The temporary academic pressure in the third year of high school is not heavy, it is all review and recollection.
Students are preoccupied with endlessly solving problems, while teachers are solely responsible for constantly explaining them. At Nanshi High School, the custom is for sophomores to complete all their high school courses before the end of summer vacation. Then, in the first half of their senior year, they quickly review all the previous knowledge points. After that, the cycle of exams, problem solving, and lecturing continues.
Qin Zhixin heard a teacher yelling while still in the stairwell.
Qin Zhixin followed the sound of the roar and saw that it was Class 11 of Senior Three. Qin Zhixin ran to the window with a dry rag in her hand to look. She pretended to be wiping the window sill and the glass, but in fact she was just curious. She just wanted to see the teacher scolding the students. As long as she was not the one being scolded, she could watch it as a comedy all day long.
Looking out the window, I saw that there were about fifty students, only about ten of them were standing, and all of them, whether standing or sitting, had their heads bowed. Judging by the writing on the blackboard, it must be a math class.
The person who yelled was a young-looking female teacher. She was standing at the podium with the test paper in her hand, furious and yelling:
"Why did 17 people get the first thirteen questions wrong?! Where are your fucking brains? You guys are the real black sheep. Question 14, the only question I allowed you to get wrong, why did so many people get it wrong on a required question? Do you think your score is too high? One question, one fucking question is five points. You got one wrong, and your university will be demoted!"
Qin Zhixin was also frightened after hearing the general idea. The math test for Jiangsu Province was divided into fill-in-the-blank questions and long questions. There were fourteen fill-in-the-blank questions and six long questions. Generally, questions 13 and 14 were difficult.
She only got half of the fill-in-the-blank questions in the math entrance exam right. If she followed the teacher's instructions, she would probably have to commit seppuku to apologize.
But what shocked her even more was that only a dozen people stood up. Doesn't this mean that most people answered the first thirteen questions correctly?
Chapter 28 Nothing Happened
Qin Zhixin tiptoed and peeked into the classroom secretly. She just wiped the windowsill with the rag in her hand casually, pretending to wipe the dust into the corner of the windowsill.
This is purely a trick to fool people.
At school, she was so condescending that she even picked up a rag. At home, she wouldn't do any housework unless Tang Yuyu pulled her ears.
"I'm so overwhelmed! This old woman is so scary! I got almost half of the questions wrong on my opening exam. If she were my math teacher, wouldn't she be hanging me up and beating me?"
"You know, I should have hung you up and beaten you long ago. Not only that, I should have broken off all four legs, skinned you, and thrown you into a frying pan."
[You idiot, you think I'm a bullfrog! Dry pot bullfrog, right?]
[What? Are you dissatisfied?]
【I'm so impressed by your grandma's whistle! 】
[You're talking dirty to me? Are you getting cocky? Damn it!]
The female teacher in the classroom was yelling again, so loud that Qin Zhixin felt her eardrums vibrate. Seeing the senior student by the window shrinking his neck, the girl couldn't help but shrink her neck too. The system looked at her in surprise, even amused.
Qin Zhixin has never met many teachers who could convince her after being scolded by her since she was a child. When she was in elementary school, this damn girl deliberately didn't take exams and was punished by Tang Yuyu. In junior high school, she relied on her beauty and good grades to be spoiled by her teacher. It was only now that she was in a key high school that she could be taught a lesson.
[What kind of noises does this old woman make when she and her husband make love? Their voices are so loud, wow.]
[Don't tell me the neighbor next door is going to call the police while we're doing this. Damn, you little bitch, did you see that? The window glass was shaking when she screamed just now.]
[Huh? Scary!]
Qin Zhixin curled her lips, and even looked at the seniors in the classroom with a hint of pity. Li Jinjin had come to join in the fun, hiding in the side to sweep up the garbage, but the female teacher's yell scared her and she hid away.
Qin Zhixin noticed that Li Jinjin had moved away and felt a little disdainful.
[Tsk, system, look at that little girl, pretending to hide. This slut usually can't wait to get close to any man she sees in the classroom.]
[What you said is too harsh. She didn't provoke you.]
Although the system did not have a good impression of Li Jinjin, as the saying goes, a person's character can be seen at the age of three, and whether a person can be a close friend can be roughly known by looking at his or her daily behavior, but what Qin Zhixin said was indeed too harsh.
Qin Zhixin hid behind the wall, out of the teacher's sight. She surreptitiously observed the expressions of the unfortunate students who had stood up in the classroom. She couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard what the system said.
She has boyfriends at both No. 1 Middle School and Ningjiang, and she's probably trying to find someone else at school. I heard that Zhao Jiajun used to pester her constantly.
I don't care about your classmates' shitty affairs. That guy surnamed Zhao has been messaging you constantly these past few days, hasn't he? Whatever you want to do, he's a piece of shit. Whoever he gets stuck with is in trouble.
[I blocked him. This guy is harassing me in the class group. I can't block the class group as well.]
Qin Zhixin sighed, wiped the dust from the corner of the windowsill, and used a dirty rag to wipe the glass directly. A senior student leaning against the window noticed the change in light and realized that someone was standing in the corridor outside the window. He subconsciously glanced over. It was a trivial glance. The first thing that caught his eye was Qin Zhixin's magnificent mountain range.
The senior was stunned for a moment, but he was still intimidated by the power of the female demon on the podium, so he only dared to lean over secretly. He still lowered his head, but his eyes were still glancing at the girl who had half of her body hidden behind the wall.
What a stunning and beautiful lady!
The beauty was wearing a light blue printed T-shirt, which looked like she had worn it for quite a long time. The chest was badly deformed, and her lower body was covered by the edge of the window sill. He couldn't see the whole picture, but could only see that she was wearing a pair of dark jeans. However, he could still feel the extreme curves brought by the exaggerated waist-to-hip ratio and its amazing sexual tension.
Especially the pair of jade arms that are wiping the rag are even more charming and attractive. As the arms swing, the fat giant rabbit also sways mischievously, vaguely revealing a bit of spring.
This unlucky senior met Qin Zhixin's eyes, and he was stunned.
Her eyes are filled with the clear waves of spring water, and her beautiful face is more charming than flowers.
…………
Feeling the dishonest gaze of the senior student sitting by the window, Qin Zhixin no longer had the heart to chat with the system. She put on what she thought was a vicious expression and glared at him, hoping that he would restrain himself, but the guy in front of her actually stared at her even more vigorously!
Qin Zhixin felt a little embarrassed by his stare, so she took the rag and wiped it a few times, thinking she was done. She turned to leave, but then stopped and gave the middle finger to the senior who was blatantly peeking at her.
When the senior saw this action, he subconsciously turned his head completely to the side. To the female teacher at the podium, it seemed that this guy was staring out the window in a daze.
When Qin Zhixin turned around, she heard the female teacher yelling inside.
"Ji Wenzhou! Am I standing outside? What are you looking at so intently? Do you want me to put your head against the window so I can get you a telescope? How much did you get on the test this time?"
The senior student was so frightened by the roar that he almost jumped up from his seat, his face turning pale and red. When he saw the teacher flipping through the report card, he also shuddered.
"One hundred and forty-five, so high? The class average is one hundred and sixty-three, and you're only one big question away from catching up. How dare you slack off? If I were you, I wouldn't be able to sleep! You stand up and listen too!"
In Jiangsu Province, students in the second year of high school will have additional exams after the subject division. The science students will have an additional math exam, and the liberal arts students will have an additional Chinese exam, both worth 40 points.
The female teacher's voice was so loud that both Qin Zhixin and Li Jinjin shuddered. This time, Qin Zhixin noticed that the window glass was actually shaking. Hearing that the senior was being scolded, Qin Zhixin's mood improved a lot. Her almond-shaped eyes narrowed into slits with joy. She quickly covered her mouth, having almost laughed out loud.
At this time, Zhou Dahong also came with a clean mop. He had just washed the mop in the bathroom.
As soon as he came out, he saw Qin Zhixin smiling with a smile that was not self-conscious, her dark eyes darting around like a charming cat. Qin Zhixin saw Zhou Dahong coming and was also idle, so she explained to Zhou Dahong why the unlucky senior was scolded. She looked like she had avenged a great vengeance, and her face was full of pride, looking very cute and innocent.
The girl with bright eyes and a charming look covered her mouth and laughed. She said a lot, but Zhou Dahong didn't hear a word. His eyes were almost filled with the snow-capped mountains that were shaking and rising with her laughter.
Zhou Dahong's mind was completely consumed by the situation. His mouth felt dry, and he swallowed, barely managing to mumble a few words. This was the first time he'd seen this scenery so closely since the start of the school year. Thinking of how Qiao Hua would brag about how close he and Qin Zhixin sat in the dormitory, Zhou Dahong suddenly felt like one of the three oddballs sitting next to him, and a strange sour feeling welled up inside him.
Qiao Hua was about to cry. He was extremely envious of Zhou Dahong, the bastard who was so lucky. Why did a spring cleaning that was almost done for fun end up like this?
Qiao Hua couldn't understand.
Even if Tan Peiyue and Chu Keke wanted to go out and play, they had to get their work done first! It had been almost twenty minutes since they came downstairs, and those two ugly guys hadn't shown up yet after saying they were going to buy water.
So until now, he is the only one sweeping this section of road.
The other two groups sweeping the boulevard with him were not far away. Although they were also laughing and playing, at least everyone was there and seemed to be sweeping the floor.
Qiao Hua felt a bit annoyed. Being in the same group with those two was already offensive enough, but they treated the spring cleaning as an autumn outing, completely lacking any self-awareness. He'd listened to Zhou Dahong complain in the dormitory before, and while he'd enjoyed it, he'd sometimes wondered if it was too harsh to say that about the two girls.
But now Qiao Hua felt that Zhou Dahong should have been more harsh in his scolding of them.
If it was a beauty like Qin Zhixin, Qiao Hua would be happy even if she stayed in the classroom without going out, let alone being a little bit lazy. But are Tan Peiyue and Chu Keke a good match?
Apart from anything else, putting these two people together with Qin Zhixin is an insult to Qiao Hua's own eyes.
If we talk about gentlemanly manners, he should indeed brainwash himself with a clear conscience and tell himself that helping his female classmates is his duty.
But are Tan Peiyue and Chu Keke considered “female classmates”?
Ah Xi! Apart from the lack of a handle down there, what else do they look like women? For a face-hungry and licking dog like Qiao Hua, gentlemanly demeanor is reserved for beauties, not anthropomorphic monsters.
Qiao Hua was full of complaints at the moment.
Large pieces of leaves are stuck together and are difficult to sweep. You have to use a lot of effort to pry the leaves apart and then put them in the dustpan.
The bad news was that one dustpan couldn't hold much, but at least there was good news: Qiao Hua had three. He first pushed all the leaves into a small pile, then filled all three dustpans and piled them together before heading to the large trash can. After two trips back and forth, he still had half of it left.
He was drenched in sweat, and only with the help of the other two groups did he manage to finish the job. He saw that it was already forty minutes old, but Tan Peiyue and Chu Keke still hadn't arrived.
Qiao Hua's anger instantly flared up. He had thought that these two were just going to slack off, but what did it mean that they didn't even show up?
When he ran upstairs angrily, Qiao Hua took a quick look around the classroom as soon as he arrived. He saw Tan Peiyue and Chu Keke, each wearing earphones and looking at their phones. Their heads were very close together because they were concentrating on looking at the screen.
The sight of two heads, each painted in a very different style, each ugly in its own way, thrust together created a visual impact. Qiao Hua's eyes flushed with rage when he saw this, and he threw his broom and dustpan into the corner. He wanted to stride over to the table where the two of them sat and yell at them angrily, but the closer he got, the less confident he felt.
These two look so abstract that if you quarrel with them, you will be the one who suffers in the end.
