Chapter 335: Peppa Pig tattooed on the body, applause for the social person

~17 min read 3,345 words

By the time Lin Li and Bai Bufan escaped from the black beast world, the girls had already strolled to the next stall.

"How come you're really picking one out? Are you really going to buy it?"

The two walked up. Seeing Ding Sihan really asking the boss for a plastic display box and starting to pick, Lin Li asked in surprise.

For boarding high school students, there was nothing good to raise here.

"Sending it to my niece to play with. I promised her before." Ding Sihan answered.

Having a niece at such a young age, Ding Sihan was also an old fart.

"Girls actually prioritize turtles over goldfish? As expected of your niece, she has some stuff." Lin Li asked.

It always felt like Lin Li was scolding her, but Ding Sihan rolled her eyes and said: "With my niece's personality, she can't manage regular water changes. It's better to raise a turtle; at least it can die later."

"Then why not just change the fish regularly?" Lin Li shrugged.

Everyone who raises fish knows the famous 1-3-5-7 rule.

Feed once a day, change water every three days, wash the tank every five days, change a batch of fish every seven days.

"That's because with my financial resources, I can't do that." Ding Sihan said with disdain. "Alright, shut up, don't hinder me from picking a turtle."

"Eh, Lin Li." Bai Bufan lowered his voice and poked Lin Li at this moment.

"Hmm?"

"Feeling a bit touched by the scene, I suddenly thought of a question. Lin Li, you say, couple avatars agreed upon by couples are called 'couple avatars,' so what are avatars agreed upon by best friends called?" Bai Bufan asked.

No wonder he lowered his voice.

As for why he thought of such a question by looking at a turtle, Lin Li could only say that Bai Bufan was just like this, reasonable.

"You don't even know a logic question? How are you going to take the civil service exam in the future? That's called a couple avatar, this must be called a 'bestie avatar',"

Lin Li also lowered his voice, speaking his mind, and asked back after answering:

"Bufan, now it's my turn to ask you. What are the avatar frames chosen by best friends who use bestie avatars to match themselves in the game called?"

Bai Bufan's eyes narrowed, his expression serious and earnest:

「Hiss, let me analyze this. The avatar frame, the avatar frame is a circle around the outside of the profile picture... Could it be!! Masaka!! Is it—thin-skinned! 」

"Congratulations, you got it right!"

Lin Li snapped his fingers, his eyes shining.

"Then it needs a circumcision."

The two chuckled silverly. The girl group who noticed this looked disgusted and helpless.

Although they didn't know what they were chatting about, staying far away was definitely right.

"Holy sh*t, Lin Li, is the little red dot on the avatar a venereal disease? F*ck, I'll never chat privately with people who change to this kind of avatar again. Thinking about it is terrifying. No wonder everyone says there are too many unclean things on the internet. It's true!"

Bai Bufan learned fast and drew inferences fast. Suddenly, his face turned pale, he patted his chest, trembling with fear.

Lin Li's silver-laughing face instantly lost expression o_o.

His voice also became normal volume, and his tone was very calm: "Uh... Bufan, you don't have to worry about this. No one wants to chat with you privately, especially girls."

"If you take the initiative to find them, that's your own fault. As the saying goes, 'don't do it if you're afraid, don't be afraid if you do it'—of course, I'm referring to cheating."

Bai Bufan: "... (;o_o)?"

Eh? Not? Buddy? We were chatting about perverted topics properly, why are you bringing up reality potions?

Is it perverted to play reality?

"Lin Li, just you wait! I'll find a truckload of bread men to clean you up!" Bai Bufan was powerless and furious.

Look, anxious again.

Ding Sihan quickly picked out a relatively active little turtle, asked the stall owner about the closing time, and paid the money, but handed the display box to the stall owner, asking him to put it away.

It was very inconvenient to carry it all the way, and there was no need. After confirming that the closing time was very late, they could come back to get it when going home.

"Have you named the turtle yet?" Lin Li asked Ding Sihan while walking out.

Bai Bufan, who had discussed the black dog's name with Lin Li, looked over, carefully recalling his experience. He hadn't seen any anime related to turtles.

Are there *doujinshi* for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

Forget it, humans can't, and shouldn't.

"What kind of fart words do you have again?" Ding Sihan seemed to feel that Lin Li asking this suddenly couldn't be anything serious, and asked very vigilantly.

"If it hasn't been named yet, I suggest making the turtle surnamed Wang." Lin Li said, "This will make the turtle look very smart, because he knows how to find patterns. He's much smarter than Bai Bufan and is a good seedling for the civil service exam."

"..."

Long silence.

When the few finally reacted, she only felt that this year's autumn was colder, and her expression was complicated.

"... What does it mean? I didn't understand." Qu Wanqiu frowned, not understanding the logic.

She only remembered a turtle on the internet that only bumped into black things, suspected to be an FBI internal training video leaked.

"Finding turtle green isn't finding patterns, it's finding that the turtle greened it, because after being surnamed Wang, it's the neighbor Old Wang among turtles." Chen Yuying explained to Qu Wanqiu with a smile.

Qu Wanqiu: "..."

"Monitor, explaining a joke will ruin the joke. Look, Chiu-chiu can't even laugh. It's all your problem." Lin Li was very disappointed.

This was a joke that should have made people unable to help but laugh.

"What kind of ability is this to make people laugh! Deduct money for homophonic jokes!" Qu Wanqiu complained.

"Then do you know why turtles live long?" Lin Li had always ignored these words, and immediately spoke again.

However, the three didn't answer tacitly and walked forward along the street.

Broken, isolated.

"Bufan, do you know?" Lin Li could only look at Bai Bufan.

Bai Bufan nodded and said calmly: "Because of turtle jelly (Guilinggao)."

"Mm."

"..."

"..."

The two were quiet for a full three seconds, then—

"Hahaha—" The two began to laugh without any emotion, exaggerated and fake.

Hearing this laughter, the girls in front didn't look back, just walked faster.

Don't know them, don't know them, don't know them.

"Collect." Lin Li made a collecting gesture in music conducting, and the two stopped laughing instantly, lowered their heads, and followed the girl group quickly.

When the Yudai River appeared in view, the five people had already strolled out of the street.

But this didn't mean that the shops here were about to be finished. In fact, because the area here was large and less restricted, there were more and more complicated shops here.

If it were so easy to finish strolling, the five people wouldn't have come here at ten o'clock, and now it was just noon.

Small merry-go-rounds for children to play, bouncy castles, including night market game shooting stalls, goldfish stalls—things that had no place on the street all appeared here.

Therefore, there were more people here, and it was noisier than on the street. Occasionally, you could see some not-so-big children running around in groups, laughing and laughing.

"When I was a child, I thought the bouncy castle was really big. Now it looks like I could finish strolling it in a few steps." Walking beside the bouncy castle, with the roar of the blower and the sharp, crisp laughter of the children above echoing in her ears, Qu Wanqiu sighed.

"Yeah, I didn't dare to play at first when I was a child," Ding Sihan said with a smile. "I always felt that if someone came to poke it, it would explode, and I would fly up on it. Scared."

"My mom didn't let me play when I was a child." Lin Li also sighed. "I always felt that if I went to poke it, it would explode, and the unlucky ones on it would fly up. Looking forward to it."

"After telling my mom, she slapped me flying first and strictly forbade it."

Ding Sihan: "..."

What she was afraid of when she was a child was this kind of person! No, this kind of dog!

"It's a pity your mom didn't slap you a few more times." Ding Sihan complained.

Of course, in reality, the bouncy castle wasn't that fragile. The surface material had a certain strength and wear resistance, so it was quite difficult to poke it open.

And the boss would also simply search every child who entered, reminding them not to bring sharp objects. As for adults, this kind of street bouncy castle was not allowed to be entered at all, only watched and waited for on the side.

And the blower was always blowing. In fact, the castle in front of them might already be "leaking" somewhere, but the output was greater than the input, so it didn't matter.

Besides, if it was really scratched with a big opening, it would only deflate a small part because the interior was actually divided into several air chambers, rather than collapsing instantly.

"Seeing this, I also remembered my days as a delinquent teenager." Seeing the three of them sighing, Bai Bufan, who had no opinions, also sighed.

But when he sighed, the eyes of the four people instantly focused on him.

"You were a delinquent teenager?" Lin Li sneered. "How? Peppa Pig tattooed on the body, are you also a social person?"

Wait!

Eh, holy sh*t!

When his thinking diverged, Lin Li's expression changed, becoming a bit cold. He solemnly decided that he would never allow his descendants to be doctors!

Too scary.

Nothing to do with Bai Bufan.

It was just that Lin Li suddenly thought that doctors decades later might have to face a bunch of old ladies with silver tattoos on their bodies.

Holy sh*t, just thinking about it is toxic.

"Is it true or false, Bai Bufan? You were a delinquent teenager? Can't tell at all," Qu Wanqiu didn't have any sarcasm, just asked curiously, then shook her head with some amusement:

"Speaking of which, it's a bit ridiculous. When I was in junior high, I really thought delinquent teenagers were handsome." "Bai Bufan, how were you a delinquent teenager? You're as thin as a bamboo stick. I feel that if you were to fight, you'd be picked up by other delinquent teenagers and used as a weapon." Ding Sihan also looked surprised.

Bai Bufan, Lin Li: "?"

Is the aggression so strong? Lin Li felt ashamed of his weak attack just now.

Fortunately, he wasn't a bamboo stick anymore, otherwise he would have been injured by mistake.

Bai Bufan, who was besieged by everyone, had his mouth twitch slightly. After a long silence, he looked at the sky at 45 degrees, not letting tears flow down. His eyes seemed to have a story:

"I was indeed a delinquent teenager."

"It's a memory I can't bear to look back on."

"That year was only the first year of junior high."

"I was less than 1.4 meters tall. The doctor said I had improper diet and was diagnosed with malnutrition—"

Lin Li, Ding Sihan, Qu Wanqiu, Chen Yuying: "?"

Eh no, wait.

Your mother's! Your delinquent teenager is a malnourished teenager?

Is it sharp! Refund!

"The reason I thought of this when I saw the bouncy castle is that theoretically, at my age, I couldn't play on it anymore, but because I was malnourished, the boss couldn't tell my age at all, so he still allowed me to play. Hearing you guys reminiscing, I had a feeling."

Bai Bufan's sad voice continued.

If he had known, he wouldn't have said he was a delinquent teenager, he could have avoided so many scoldings.

"Sorry, Bufan, I blamed you wrong."

Lin Li patted Bai Bufan on the shoulder, then pushed him to Qu Wanqiu: "Chiu-chiu, your favorite delinquent teenager is here, do you like him? Hmm? Speak."

Qu Wanqiu: "..."

Too many words, *ao*.

"I said it, it was in junior high. I'm sober now." Qu Wanqiu lowered her head and stifled her laughter.

Even if she wasn't sober, it would be hard to like this kind of delinquent.

"However, Bai Bufan, is it true? You were so short in junior high, and now you're so tall?" Ding Sihan's doubt was here.

Lin Li also looked at Bai Bufan, but didn't have any exploration. For fun-seekers like them, it was reasonable to compile life like "One Piece-Monkey D. Luffy" on Zhihu.

"That's actually true. Later, after correcting my eating habits, my height started to shoot up," Bai Bufan shrugged. "And I also feel it's quite ridiculous. You guys might not know, but when I graduated from junior high, I was only 1.72 or 1.73 meters."

Bai Bufan stopped there, but the remaining people present knew—when school started, Bai Bufan was already 1.8 meters, one of the tallest in the class.

Did he grow nearly ten centimeters in three months?

"Only growing height and not weight, so envious," Ding Sihan sighed. "Why am I so unpromising? What kind of broken constitution, I get fat just by drinking water."

"Uh, Ding Sihan, you know best whether you only drank water, heh," Lin Li came out of nowhere. "It's fine to lie to others, but don't lie to yourself."

Ding Sihan's face, which was still sighing, instantly stiffened.

Then the next second, Ding Sihan broke her defense and was powerless and furious: "No! Lin Li! Are you sick!! What would happen if you said one less sentence!"

"I would say one less sentence."

"Go to hell!"

Today, although she couldn't kick Lin Li and leave a dirty mark, it wasn't too much to hit him a few times.

The two circled Chen Yuying like King Qin circling the pillar again.

When Ding Sihan gave up, Lin Li, whose hands were just pressed on Chen Yuying's shoulders, pressed down and asked curiously:

"Monitor, how come you don't feel touched by the scene at all, without any sighing."

"No way, because I didn't play this when I was a child, so I really don't have any sighing." Chen Yuying, who had been smiling, turned her head and explained.

"So it's because you didn't have a childhood..." Lin Li's gaze was like twilight filtered through church stained glass, like thin ice melting in early spring, with restrained pity, extremely gentle.

Then he walked toward the bouncy castle:

"Things not obtained in youth will eventually trap one for a lifetime. But the earlier one gets them back, the less damage the trap does. Monitor, wait, I'll use my money ability to clear the field for you, let you play to your heart's content."

Chen Yuying: "?"

Lin Li's gaze made her feel very comfortable.

But this talk didn't sound like something a human could say.

Who wants to play this...

Clearing the field and going up immediately, what kind of playing to one's heart's content is that? All the children and parents would look at who was so neurotic, it would be losing face completely, right?

"Come back!" So Chen Yuying could only hurriedly grab Lin Li's back hem and pull him back.

"I just don't like playing."

She hurriedly emphasized.

"That's right, Lin Li, stop going crazy. If Ying-bao wants a castle, why look for an inflatable one? Why not just look for a real castle?" Ding Sihan also opened her mouth with a smile on the side.

Seems like that.

Holy sh*t, your childhood and my childhood seem to be different.

Alas, Lin Li realized after growing up that this lyric might have been sung by "Home with Kids" to the audience in front of the screen.

Liu Xing's family lived in a high-end residential area in BJ. In the early 2000s, the family had computers and mobile phones, rich dishes every day, and the refrigerator was always stocked with high-end snacks of the year like Haagen-Dazs and Gao Le Gao.

It really was different.

By the way, speaking of high-end...

"Bufan, did you hear? Is there an impulse to 'how am I supposed to live like this, I'm jumping'?" Lin Li asked Bai Bufan with a faint sense of death.

Bai Bufan nodded sadly in cooperation.

"Then go, jump with my share, this is the bond of our hot-bloodedness." Lin Li was overjoyed and pushed Bai Bufan toward the river.

Very well satisfied his contradictory desire to jump into the river but not really want to jump.

Bai Bufan: "?"

"Wait a minute! If only I jump, then I won't jump! I don't want to be a little brother like Qu Yuan!!" Bai Bufan regretted it.

As for why Bai Bufan said that.

Because according to wild history, the second-to-last sentence Qu Yuan left to the world after jumping into the river was *ou ni jiang*~

If you ask what the last sentence was, it was *gulu gulu gulu*~~

It should be paying tribute to Steam's biggest piece of trash, "The Lord of the Rings: Gollum."

In the end, Bai Bufan still didn't jump.

A few people bypassed the bouncy castle and continued strolling forward.

Ding Sihan's fruit tea was also finished, so she changed to walk toward the nearest trash can.

The crowd noticed a little boy.

At this moment, he was standing not far from the trash can, his eyes fixed on a little girl drinking milk beside the trash can.

The reason the little girl drank beside the trash can was that she was about to finish drinking. When the little girl's straw made an empty sound, she put the milk box on the trash can.

After the little girl left, the cautious little boy ran over immediately and hurriedly picked up the milk on the trash can and put it into his mouth.

The five people's pupils shook.

Didn't expect that even in this era, there were still such pitiful children.

It was really nose-sore.

Things not obtained in youth will eventually trap one for a lifetime.

Saying this to Chen Yuying was of course a joke, but here, perhaps it would become a real example.

Therefore, Lin Li hurriedly lowered his voice and asked the people around him: "Does anyone have cash on them? Lend me some, I'll transfer it to you later?"

"I have."

As a boarding student, he still had some cash. So Bai Bufan took out a fifty-yuan note from his pocket and gave it to Lin Li.

Lin Li stepped forward, preparing to give this fifty to the child.

However, when Lin Li got close, he saw the little boy put the milk box, which was blown up, on the ground in front of him, with a smile on his face.

Lin Li: "?"

Not?

Wait!

Big silly spring! What are you doing!

Run!!

At this moment, Lin Li turned into a long-team American, and when he saw this grenade thrown on the ground, he retreated quickly.

Sure enough, he saw the child do a long jump action, then jump on the spot, and fall down fiercely!!

"Bang!!!"

The milk box exploded, making a huge sound, and many passersby looked over curiously.

Fortunately, Lin Li retreated in time, and the remaining milk in the milk box didn't splash on him, who was carefully dressed today.

The little boy was satisfied and ran away jumping and jumping.

"..."

"..."

Lin Li returned to the four people who were stifling their laughter, was silent for a few breaths, and finally opened his mouth:

"Anyone want to hit a kid? Together?"
