Chapter 269

~17 min read 3,333 words

Zhou Baowei's mouth twitched, but he sighed and looked at Wang Yuhui: "Hello, I am 'Hell', your mother."

Wang Ze let out a long sigh of relief.

Luckily he reacted in time; he almost became the 'Hell' himself.

Wang Yuhui was visibly trembling all over. While speaking, one could even hear his teeth chattering: "What did you, you, you come here to do?"

"You don't still hold any delusions, do you? What do you think we came here to do? What else could we do?" Baowei, the 'Hell' of the combination, stepped forward, smiling but gritting his teeth: "You thieving, takeout-stealing dog bastard? Huh?"

Then Bai Bufan also stepped forward, took a deep breath, bowed ninety degrees, reached out a hand toward Wang Yuhui, and said with a slightly blushing face: "Student Wang, please let me date your mother! Please! I will definitely treat her well!"

Wang Yuhui: "?"

Then Wang Yuhui realized—

High EQ: Let me date your mother.

Low EQ: Fuck your mother.

"I didn't steal any takeout!!" Wang Yuhui ignored Bai Bufan's confession, looked around, and retorted in an extremely intense tone.

"Then what is that on your table?" Lin Li walked over, picked up the clean packaging bag and the receipt on the table, and smiled: "Buddy, I heard from your roommate that you don't seem to be surnamed Lin, but Wang."

"I, I took it by mistake."

Just like a culprit in Detective Conan, Wang Yuhui began his meaningless death struggle.

"Alright, if you took it by mistake, you must have your own takeout order record. Come on, show it to me now. If you can find it, I'll take your surname."

Watching Wang Yuhui pretending to take out his phone, Lin Li just wanted to laugh.

Hearing a rustling sound, Lin Li tilted his head, then frowned: "Hell, restrain yourself. If you want to dig through the trash, do it after we go back. We're in front of students from another class, save some face for the three of us."

Zhou Baowei, who was using chopsticks to dig through the trash can and had been called out, "..."

"Don't just assume my codename is 'Hell'! And I wasn't digging through trash, look what I found! This is my takeout bag, it even has my receipt on it, 'Top Scholar' Mr. Zhou! Damn, he's actually a repeat offender."

After Zhou Baowei showed his discovery, he slammed the chopsticks into the trash can and looked up at Wang Yuhui with eyes full of anger.

Being able to avenge yesterday's grudge, it was truly great.

He was going to avenge the large lunch he lost yesterday!

"Did you find it, your order number?" Lin Li asked Wang Yuhui.

Wang Yuhui, who looked like he had Parkinson's, didn't have any order number; he was just swiping his phone randomly. Now that he was caught red-handed, he managed to force a fawning smile:

"S-several brothers, I'm sorry. How much was the takeout? Can I pay you back now..."

"Hey, how much is takeout worth? No rush to pay. Let's go talk to the teacher together first." Lin Li's smile was very sunny and warm as he said to Wang Yuhui.

"No!" Wang Yuhui shouted suddenly.

"Don't tell the teacher, I beg you. I shouldn't have stolen the takeout, I know I was wrong, let's settle this privately." Wang Yuhui's face turned pale upon hearing Lin Li's plan. If more people found out about this, how would he live at Nansang Middle School in the future?

"You don't know you were wrong; you just know you're finished." Bai Bufan, who was on the side, chuckled upon hearing this.

"Sorry, we don't plan to settle privately." Lin Li also nodded.

"I can give you more money, double, triple, no, five times! I'll give you four one hundred yuan each! I beg you, don't tell the teacher!" Wang Yuhui's voice was already laced with tears. He came up wanting to grab Lin Li's hand, but Lin Li dodged.

"There's such a good thing?" Wang Ze's eyes lit up.

Coming to eat some melon and earning a hundred yuan? A pie really did fall from the sky.

Then Wang Ze felt the death stares of Lin Li and the other two.

"Combination, now is not the time for you to speak."

"Sorry, 'Handsome', 'Hell', 'as', don't mind me, you three continue." Wang Ze maintained an awkward but polite smile, signaling everyone to continue.

"I'm very sorry, we don't intend to use this to extort you. We just want you to receive the punishment you deserve. There is no possibility of a private settlement. Even if you took out a million, it wouldn't work." Lin Li refused calmly.

If he really took out a million, then they could talk later.

The system mission required the takeout thief to receive the punishment he deserved. If it was just paying money, Lin Li didn't think the system would approve.

As for Bufan and Baowei, if they actually accepted the 100 yuan compensation in their hearts, he would just give them his own money later.

"Don't, don't, really don't tell the teacher, I beg you, let me go this time..."

Sensing Lin Li's iron heart, Wang Yuhui changed targets and looked at Bai Bufan, crying.

"Crying? Crying also counts as time." Bai Bufan immediately stepped back to prevent this guy from wiping his snot and tears on him, then sneered, "Begging us is useless, go beg the teacher."

He and Zhou Baowei naturally supported Lin Li's decision.

When they were at the door just now, they had also learned from Lin Li about some of Wang Yuhui's self-talk.

This guy was like a large package at a courier station; the code had been scanned, but it hadn't been paid for, and it was about to be sent off.

He was a bit of a natural-born bad seed who loved to take revenge on society. Just paying money was really letting him off too easily.

"Stop your mother's crying. Why didn't you cry when you were stealing takeout? Do you have to force us to drag you away?"

Wang Ze, feeling annoyed and disgusted, stepped forward and tried to pull Wang Yuhui up, intending to drag him away directly.

Although this analogy wasn't appropriate, it was like cheating—if you're afraid, don't cheat; if you cheat, don't be afraid. If Wang Yuhui had just admitted it, at least he would have been purely a bastard. But this kind of crying and screaming after being caught was just disgusting and irritating. Wang Ze really couldn't stand it.

"Get lost! Don't touch me! Get lost! Don't touch me!" The moment his clothes were grabbed by Wang Ze, Haji-Wang completely entered the 'Spine-Dragon' state, suddenly starting to swing his fists wildly and screaming hysterically.

Wang Ze was startled.

"This is my dorm, get lost, all of you get lost!" Wang Yuhui started grabbing things around him and throwing them at Lin Li and the others. His movements were too big, knocking over a chair and making a huge noise.

The 'Handsome-as-Hell' combination started dodging, and 'Handsome' started catching blades with his bare hands.

But Wang Yuhui actually threw the unclosed spicy hot pot over as well.

Fortunately, the four of them dodged in time and weren't hit; the takeout just splashed all over a bed in the dorm.

Judging by the volume of Mao Jiaqi's "Wang Yuhui, I fuck your mother" from behind, who had been watching the show, that upper bunk bed was probably his.

Wang Yuhui looked up and saw the four people keeping their eyes on him as if he were a clown, and even whispering and laughing among themselves, he felt a great insult.

He suddenly turned and ran toward the balcony.

Lin Li frowned slightly but didn't stop him. It was clear that this piece of trash had very poor psychological quality, but the school dormitory balcony had sealed windows; even if this guy wanted to jump off the building, he couldn't.

But then Lin Li got scared.

Because Wang Yuhui came out of the restroom holding a wet mop.

Your mother.

"Get lost! All of you get lost!" Wang Yuhui raised the mop, not caring about the stuff on it splashing onto himself, and rushed toward Lin Li and the others.

"Situation is bad, retreat first!" Lin Li turned back, only to find that the 'Handsome-as-Hell' combination had already run to the door. He, the 'Handsome' one, was the slowest runner.

Animals.

Lin Li immediately followed and ran out.

Lin Li had many ways to deal with this guy; if they really fought, Wang Yuhui would have no chance of winning.

But the problem was that he was holding a mop taken from the restroom.

Lin Li had the ability to catch blades with his bare hands, but did Lin Li dare to catch it? He didn't.

A mop stained with shit, Lu Bu reborn.

Not only can it fight in melee, but it can occasionally be used at range, and it has a probability of splash damage during basic attacks.

It was too overpowered. Did the designer not use their brain when designing this weapon?

Fortunately, the ability wasn't like Li Jing's 100% forced bare-handed blade catch, otherwise, Lin Li wouldn't even dare to imagine how desperate he would be.

Although Lin Li was a cultivator, there were too many people around now. The 'Clear-Righteous Thunder-Driving Method' wasn't suitable to use; the long-range electric current causing damage would be very obvious and easily noticed by others.

Get out of the dorm first. Anyway, the evidence was all in hand, that was enough. Whether Wang Yuhui was willing to surrender voluntarily would only affect the complexity of the process.

"Catching a takeout thief, and you managed to catch Lu Bu, not bad. 'Handsome', are you okay?" Bai Bufan asked Lin Li, who had run out, with concern.

"I'm fine, this buddy, hard to comment." Lin Li shook his head and looked into the dorm.

They were still arguing inside.

"Mao Jiaqi, you get lost too! Get out!"

"Are you sick, Wang Yuhui? I haven't even settled the score for you making my bed like this!"

"I told you to get out, didn't you hear me!"

Then Mao Jiaqi also ran out, with a stain on his white clothes. Lin Li and the four of them silently moved a bit further away.

The door slammed shut with a boom.

Mao Jiaqi was clearly also 'red-hot', patting the dorm door and cursing. "What now?" Wang Ze already felt that coming at noon was worth it, and asked with his arms crossed.

"If he refuses to see the teacher, then let the teacher come to see him. Buddy, what do you say, can you contact your head teacher? Or should we find the dorm manager first?" Lin Li shrugged indifferently and asked Mao Jiaqi.

As for contacting Xue Jian, that wasn't considered. It wasn't that he was afraid of Xue Jian knowing—in fact, he would definitely know in the end—but because this kind of troublesome task that counted as overtime was best handled by the head teacher of the class that caused it.

"I'll find the teacher now!" Mao Jiaqi gritted his teeth and took his phone to the stairwell to make a call.

The efficiency was quite fast. In just a few minutes, a middle-aged teacher, who should be the head teacher of Class 12, Fang Lihua, ran over in a hurry.

If nothing went wrong, he was probably eating at the school cafeteria when he received the call.

After talking to Mao Jiaqi first, Fang Lihua stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Yuhui, it's the teacher. Open the door now."

"They are still outside, let them leave first!"

Fang Lihua negotiated with Wang Yuhui for a while, then walked toward Lin Li and the four of them.

"I've already heard the general situation from Mao Jiaqi. Wang Yuhui's emotions are not very stable right now. Can the four of you leave for a while? After his emotions stabilize, we'll find another opportunity to discuss the specific handling of this theft incident together?"

Fang Lihua said slowly.

!

Seeing the gazes of the other three focused on Lin Li, Fang Lihua also looked at him.

"No problem." Lin Li was indifferent.

What was the need to have a conversation with a mental patient? Besides, the four of them should go eat; why wait here for the result on an empty stomach?

The people who should be anxious weren't them.

"Then teacher, we'll leave first. Contact us after you've calmed him down?"

"Okay. By the way, could you please temporarily not spread what Wang Yuhui did? This is very important, both inside and outside the school." Fang Lihua nodded and then emphasized.

"We can keep it in our stomachs for today. As for tomorrow... tomorrow is tomorrow, I can't guarantee it." Lin Li thought for a moment and responded.

It was a deadline for this Fang Lihua, so he wouldn't spend a whole semester trying to calm him down.

Although he was a bit dissatisfied with a student speaking to him in such a tone, Fang Lihua nodded.

So Lin Li and the four of them left.

By the time they were out of sight, Fang Lihua realized he still didn't know the names of these four people or which class they were in.

So Fang Lihua looked at Mao Jiaqi: "Mao Jiaqi, do you know them? What are their names? Which class are they in?"

Mao Jiaqi was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head: "The four of them... are the 'Handsome-as-Hell' combination."

Fang Lihua: "?"

"What the hell?"

"Teacher, I don't know their names. Class, it seems to be Class 4? I'm not sure." Mao Jiaqi said apologetically.

"Okay, the teacher knows."

On the way downstairs.

Wang Ze had already ordered takeout, so he went to get it directly. Lin Li and the other three hadn't ordered and were too lazy to wait another half hour, so they went to the cafeteria.

After sharply critiquing Wang Yuhui's clown posture for a while, Lin Li asked Bai Bufan: "Bufan, the small account you used to add Wang Ze on QQ?"

"That's right." Bai Bufan smiled.

"Be careful, don't actually make Wang Ze 'red-hot'."

"Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion. This afternoon, I'll have him treat this 'sister' of mine to dinner, and tell him the truth by the way." Bai Bufan nodded.

"Okay, protect yourself tonight. I'm afraid Wang Ze will lose his mind. You know, we have a saying: 'Since you're already here'." Lin Li patted Bai Bufan on the shoulder and exhorted, "Especially since Wang Ze is already a person of this path. Although your behavior is cold, your intestinal tract is very hot."

What do a corpse and a swimming pool have in common? Both are cold when you go in. What do Bai Bufan and a sauna have in common? Both are hot when you go in.

Bai Bufan, who was warm-hearted: "... Fuck."

【Do your best to participate in the sect martial arts competition and win at least three top prizes for yourself or your master, at least two of which must be in the main competition (3/1; 2/2)】

【You can choose to complete the mission and claim the reward at any time, but you will not be able to trigger the probability doubling opportunity.】

In the afternoon, the moment he crossed the finish line, the Nansang Middle School sports meet 1500-meter freshman boys' record was raised by Lin Li by another three seconds.

And the system also gave such a notification.

Lin Li naturally didn't choose to settle. He had been striving for this doubling opportunity from the beginning, so he wasn't in a hurry.

For his events, only the relay race remained as the finale of the sports meet tomorrow.

"Lin Li, do you want to drink water? Which bottle do you want?" After Lin Li crossed the finish line and entered the inside of the track, Chen Yuying came up to ask.

"Of course, which bottle have you drunk from?" Lin Li nodded and asked.

"Neither has been drunk from." Chen Yuying shook her head, shook the two bottles of water in her hand, and handed them both to Lin Li. "The difference here is, one is iced, and one is room temperature."

The water droplets condensed from the ice mist on the iced mineral water in her right hand flowed down her slender fingers, making Lin Li want to slurp them up.

That bastard Bai Bufan—after knowing him for a long time, his own habits had also leaned a bit toward a dog's.

"Then I won't drink. I plan to die of thirst. This is all your fault. When my dehydrated corpse is discovered, monitor, you as the murderer should think about how to argue your case." Lin Li crossed his arms, didn't take them, and said firmly.

"Then I really have to think about it carefully." Chen Yuying responded with a smile.

"So thirsty, so thirsty, so thirsty, so thirsty..." So Lin Li began his leisurely but continuous wailing.

"Lin Li, I have water here." Bai Bufan, who heard Lin Li say this as he walked over, immediately spoke up.

"Get lost."

"Oh, bye, you two continue." Bai Bufan nodded and rolled away.

Lin Li driving him away must be because 'three monks have no water to drink', not because he thought he was redundant.

"So thirsty, so thirsty..."

Chen Yuying maintained a light smile. After noticing Lin Li's gaze sweeping over several times, she finally laughed out loud.

"Alright, alright~"

Her slender fingers gently unscrewed the cap. She tilted her head back, and the sunlight spilled onto her fair neck through the bottle. However, the bottle mouth only hovered a few centimeters from her lips, and the water flowed lightly into her mouth.

The sound was crisp and pleasant, making the air feel cool. A drop of water escaped from the corner of her lips but was wiped away by the back of her hand before it could fall to her chin.

"Thinking about it, it would be too much of a pity if you died, Lin Li. Now this bottle, I've drunk from it, can you drink it now?" Chen Yuying handed out this bottle of water and asked.

"So I also have a day where I get bugged? This is different from the 'drunk from' I imagined, right?" Lin Li blinked.

"I've already compromised, you have to compromise too." Chen Yuying used the water bottle as an index finger and shook it in front of him.

"Alright." Lin Li nodded with a smile and took the water.

"Compromise on what, you two? Can you compromise with me too?" Ding Sihan, who heard Lin Li say this as she walked over, immediately asked.

"Get lost."

Lin Li forgot that Ding Sihan was different from Bai Bufan.

"I am the great contributor to the Class 4 sports meet! Ding Sihan, how dare you!"

"Bufan, help me see if there's still a mark on the back of my sweatpants." Lin Li walked to the spectator stand next to Bai Bufan and asked.

"It's gone."

"I wasn't a gay to begin with?" Bai Bufan was surprised.

"I'll take that as a compliment." Bai Bufan smiled.

"With a buddy like you, what else could I ask for? Bufan, you must tell me if you encounter difficulties in the future." Lin Li patted Bai Bufan on the shoulder and said with satisfaction.

"Then you'll kick me while I'm down, right?" Bai Bufan sneered.

"No, if you encounter difficulties, I will definitely pull you up," Lin Li's smile was warm at first, then serious: "But remember, only once."

"Is that all our friendship is?"

"It has nothing to do with friendship; pulling you up several times is what a gay person would do, not a brother."

Bai Bufan: "(; o_o)?"
