I didn't do my homework either!\"\nAlessa recalled the memories in her mind and suddenly exclaimed.\nNow Alessa has begun to gradually adapt to her new identity.\nI quickly finished my rice noodles and ran towards the elementary school with my classmates.\nWhen she was about to enter the school gate, Alessa suddenly stopped and looked a little hesitant.\nShe remembered her true memory.\nThirty years ago, the memory of being bullied in school.\nJust as Alessa hesitated, Tom stretched out his paw and pulled her.\nThe little girl turned to look at the cat next to her.\nSuddenly, I felt like this cat wasn't so annoying anymore.\nFollow the memory and quickly enter the classroom.\nVery skillful in finding people to borrow homework for copying.\nIn addition to them, there are many others like this.\nToday is Monday and the national flag needs to be raised.\nSo not long after entering the classroom, I had just finished my homework, and the \"March of the Athletes\" was already playing from the speaker at the door!\nAs soon as he heard this piece of music, Tang Mu's blood awakened and he stood up directly.\nAlessa and the others are still a little confused.\nAlthough their memories have already told them what they are going to do next.\nBut Alessa is also a foreign little girl after all.\nI am definitely not familiar with the melody that Chinese students have carved into their DNA.\nBut that doesn't matter, as long as you stay in the world created by Tom Mu for a while.\nTom believes that it will bring great changes to Alessa.\nAccompanying the \"March of Athletes\", primary school students left the classroom one after another and headed to the flag-raising platform on the playground.\nAccording to classes, formations were formed one after another on the playground.\nNext is the flag-raising ceremony.\nAlessa's queue stood next to Tom.\nLooking up at the flag-raising platform, the red shadow entered Alessa's eyes for the first time.\n\"Raise the flag! Play the national anthem!\"\nAs the \"March of the Volunteers\" played, all teachers and students saluted the slowly rising red flag and sang the national anthem in unison.\nTom glanced at Alessa from the corner of his eye.\nI know that this female girl still doesn't quite understand the current situation.\nBut it doesn't matter, she will gradually be able to understand it later.\nAfter the national flag is raised, radio gymnastics will be performed next.\nNow in 2006, they are using the second set of national primary and secondary school radio gymnastics.\n\"Preparation Day: Stay where you are! Get up!\"\n  \"one two three four five six seven eight!\"\n\"Two, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight!\"\n\"Three two three four five six seven eight!\"\"Four two three four five six seven eight!\"\n\"Diffusion movement...\"\nTom was meticulous and methodically doing the gymnastics he remembered from his childhood.\n​Other students behaved differently.\nMost of them are loose and lazy.\nBut there are also some students who are more serious.\nAs for outsiders like Alessa and Li Ang, they never experienced this when they were children.\nAlthough the memory in their heads will tell them what to do, it is still a bit awkward to do it.\n​But this is only a matter of time.\nAs time goes by, you will get used to it.\nIn five minutes, a set of radio gymnastics was completed, and everyone could finally return to the classroom under the leadership of the teachers of each class.\nNext, it's time to start learning.\nAccording to the curriculum, everyone starts class.\nThe first period is Chinese class.\nThe teacher was telling ancient poems on the podium, while Alessa was passing small notes below.\n【What do you want to do? 】\nAlessa tore up a piece of paper, wrote down her question, folded it and handed it to Tom Mu at the same table.\nTom Mu took the small note from Alessa, his face full of nostalgia.\nAh~\nThe taste of childhood.\nThis world was created by Tom Mu based on his own memory.\nIt's very strange to Alessa.\nFor Tom, it was a rare opportunity to recall his childhood.\n【Meow meow meow meow】\nTom opened the note handed over by Alessa and wrote his answer on it.\nWhen Alessa took it back and looked at it, she was immediately speechless.\nShe knew that the cat could write and speak.\nReplying to such a meow meow meow, it was obvious that he didn't want to tell himself.\nBy some strange coincidence, like muscle memory, Alessa took a pen and drew a 38-point line on the desk, looked at Tang Mu and said, \"You are not allowed to cross this line.\"\nTom Mu looked down and saw, my dear, childhood memories hit me hard again.\nTang Mu put his elbows on the desk and deliberately moved his hands across the 38th parallel.\nNot to be outdone, Alessa also put her hands on the desk, wrestling with Tom Mu.\n\"Tom! Alessa! Stand up!\"\nThe teacher on the podium obviously noticed their little move, and immediately patted the podium and glared over.\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \nTom Mu and Alessa were startled and quickly stood up.\n\"Listen carefully to the lecture and don't make any small moves!\"\nThe middle-aged Chinese teacher is their class teacher, very powerful.\n\"There are sixty people in the class. If you delay for one minute, you will delay the whole class for sixty minutes!\"\n\"Now go to the back and stand and listen to the class!\"\nTom Mu and Alessa remained silent, quickly picked up their Chinese books and walked towards the back of the classroom.\nAt the back of the classroom, Li Ang and Triangle Head are sitting here.\nAfter all, they are much taller than this group of third grade primary school students.\nLi Ang made a face at Tang Mu.\nThere was a smile all over his face.\nAlthough he didn't know what Tom Mu was doing.\nBut for him, it's quite fun to play here.\nLi Ang is also an unlucky child.\nLike Alessa, she never had a normal childhood.\nIn fact, these two people are quite similar in some aspects.\nAll have great power.\nThe spirit is also a little paranoid.\nBut compared to Alessa, Li Ang is luckier.\nThe forty-five minutes of a class passed quickly.\nAs the bell rang, the whole classroom seemed to come alive.\nThe children took action individually.\nFortunately, it's only elementary school now.\nThe situation of dragging the hall is not common.\nIf Alessa had gone to middle school or high school, she probably wouldn't have been able to experience the beauty of childhood.\n\"Sasha, let's go out and play!\"\nA group of little girls came to play with Alessa.\nThis made Alessa, who had been subjected to school violence, a little scared and at a loss.\nBut the group of students didn't notice it at all and pulled Alessa away with a smile.\nThey went to play skipping.\nTwo girls stood at both ends with long skipping ropes tied around their feet, and the other girl jumped in the middle.\nAlessa doesn't know how to play this, and she has never seen it before.\nBut other girls will teach her patiently.\nGradually, Alessa started playing with them.\nA clear female voice sounded on the playground:\n\"Ma Lan opened twenty-one, two-five-six, two-five-seven, two-eight-two-nine-thirty-one, three-five-six, three-five-seven, three-eight-three-nine-forty-one.\"\nWhile shouting, several small figures were beating happily there.\n\"Tom! Let's enjoy it.\"\nAt this time, Li Ang greeted Tang Mu.\nTom Mu also ran towards him quickly.\nIt turned out that Li Ang was turning over a big stone there.\nUnder the stone are a lot of ants.\nNot only Li Ang, but also other boys were squatting aside and watching the ants.\nTom Mu picked up a branch and put it in front of the ants. He watched the little ants climb up the branch with a smile on his face.\nSuddenly I remembered that the happiness in childhood always came so small and pure.\nWhen I was a child, the world was always small.\nBut it feels big.\nThe smallest little thing can quickly occupy a child's heart.\n  after growing up.\nThe more I know, the more I feel empty.and one's own insignificance.\nIt becomes increasingly difficult to fill my heart.\nCompared with the fulfilled children.\nAdults are like giant balloons.\nLooks tall.\nIn fact, everything is empty inside and can only drift with the tide.\nThe Beetle that made people cheer when I was a child.\nWhen I grow up, I don't even have time to count the stars on its back.\nThe lives of adults are always full of helplessness.\nThis helplessness, with the development of the times, has even begun to spread to the next generation of children.\nTom Mu always felt that he was lucky.\nIt's the post-1995 generation.\nDuring childhood, it was in the early 00s.\nAt that time, technology was just right; academics were just right; playmates were just right; parents were just right.\nHe has certain material security and can study and play normally.\nMy family is not rich, but money is not as important to children as adults think.\nBecause children are the best able to find happiness for themselves.\nAs long as parents and teachers give them a certain amount of space.\n  therefore.\nAt that time, the space for children was just right.\nBut since 2023.\nThe involution of adults has even begun to involve children.\nA small child is forced to grow up quickly and becomes a person who is as empty as an adult and can no longer easily obtain happiness.\nThis is something that makes Tom feel quite regretful.\nWhen the children who are trapped by Uchimaki and Chicken Baby grow up, why are they not another kind of Alessa and Leon?\n\"No playing marbles!\"\nAmong the crowd squatting to look at the ants, a little fat man suddenly made a suggestion.\nThis proposal instantly attracted the attention of other students.\nEveryone happily agreed.\nMarbles are very fun.\nIt can be said that it is the childhood of several generations.\nUnder normal circumstances, the common way to play marbles is to use your own marbles to bounce other people's marbles.\nAs long as you hit it, you can take away other people's marbles.\nSome people with good skills even win a plastic bottle full of marbles.\nLooking at the bottles full of marbles, it's quite a sense of accomplishment.\nTime in elementary school always feels like it goes by quite fast.\nMost people don't even have much memory of the class.\nThese are all memories of playing with my friends during recess.\nNot long after, the announcement that school was over came from the radio.\nToday is the day for students in Tang Mu's row.\nEveryone put their chairs upside down on the desks, then swept and mopped the floor.\nThe two big guys, Li Ang and Triangle Head, were assigned the job of taking out the garbage.\nAdults may feel bored with daily activities like this.\n​But for these primary school students.\nThey are originally at an active age. As long as they are not asked to study, everything they do seems to be playing.\n​Ah, of course.\nWhen you are with your friends, you just play.\nIf you still ask them to do housework after returning home, that would be another matter.\n\"Alessa knows what to do!\"\n  \"Hahaha!\"\nTom held the broom in his hand and imagined himself as a swordsman, gesticulating with Alessa in the void.\nAlessa rolled her eyes, feeling that Tom was bored and didn't want to play with him, so she just swept the floor silently.\n\"Don't bully Alessa.\"\nAlessa's other friends couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to stop Tom Mu.\nTang Mu laughed and didn't care.\nPut down the broom, took the mop, dipped it in the bucket, and started sliding around the classroom.\nFinally, he did a dance imitating Michael Jackson.\nA group of children were playing and making noise.\nThe hygiene of the classroom has been improved in this way.\nWe put our little schoolbags on our backs and left the classroom together.\nThe door will be closed and locked by the student on duty.\nAfter leaving the school gate, Tang Mu and the four of them were walking home.\nAlessa still felt a little like she was in a dream.\nTurning around, he looked at the big cat beside him.\nAlessa still doesn't understand what Tom Mu is doing.\nBut she did have a great time that day.\nA normal life like this is what she has always wanted.\nAlthough this world was created by Tom Mu.\nBut Alessa suddenly had an impulse.\nEven if she is deceiving herself, she still wants to stay here.\n\"Oh!\"\nWhile walking well, Tom Mu suddenly let out a ghostly scream!\n\n            \n\n\n\n                 \n  \"What's wrong?\"\nAlessa was a little confused.\nHowever, Tang Mu and Li Ang ran straight towards a tree in front of them.\nOne person and one cat bent down at the same time and picked up a straight wooden stick from the ground.\nLi Ang and Tang Mu held on to both ends of the stick, refusing to give in to each other.\n  \"Meow!\"\nTang Mu showed his fangs and threatened Li Ang.\nThis is what it sees first.\n\"He who sees it has a share!\"\nLi Ang also stared at Tang Mu, not wanting to hand over this long and straight stick.\n  \"Meow!\"\nTang Mu shouted, rushed forward, and fought with Li Ang.\n  \"Why……\"\nAlessa shook her head helplessly.\nBoys are just childish.\nWhat's so valuable about a stick?\nWith a glance, Alessa walked to the canteen nearby.\nShe saw beautiful animals thereDraw character stickers.\nPrices in this era are just right, especially at the entrance to primary schools.\nEven though Alessa only had two dollars in her pocket, it was still enough for her to buy some things she wanted.\nEven after buying the stickers, she could also buy a pack of spicy strips for 50 cents.\nIgnore Tang Mu and Li Ang who are fighting for sticks over there.\nAlessa went home first.\nI just opened the door.\nAlessa felt a strong wind blowing past her.\nThe big cat wearing a long skirt and heavy makeup was already standing in the living room, serving food to the dining table.\nSeeing Alessa come back, Tom turned his head and grinned with bright red lipstick: \"Welcome home.\"\nAlessa was stunned for a moment and said speechlessly: \"You should hide the stick on your back first and then pretend to be my mother.\"\nTom pretended not to hear the call, just whistled, quietly dropped the stick to his feet, and then kicked it away.\nWhen Alessa saw Tom turning around and returning to the kitchen, a smile appeared on her face and she whispered, \"I'm back.\"",2570,"2026-06-05T15:23:28.309Z",1,null,"710fa3c905462b871848d33413c3951d8d5d88f13777bcdb1775945cbf388ba9","church-fight-261","give-the-naughty-kid-a-childhood-259",463,"\u002Fcovers\u002F2744d9e2-255e-4853-bafb-59a1dcb29203-1780673005081.jpg"]
