Kou Chen thought Huo Ran was just trying out the size of the anklet, but after putting it on, he took a few photos with his phone and then stopped moving while playing with the phone.

"Take it off?" Kou Chen said, "Your birthday isn't here yet."

"No need." Huo Ran said.

"I know, if I don't make a small leather case, I won't replace that dog head," Kou Chen said, "I'll give it to you on your birthday..."

"I mean you don't have to wait until your birthday to give it to me," Huo Ran said, "just wear it now."

"This is a fucking birthday gift," Kou Chen was a little confused, "Your birthday is only half a month away? What should I give you when the day comes!"

"I won't give it away," Huo Ran thought for a moment and looked at him, "Don't you think there is no sense of ceremony anymore?"

Kou Chen stared at him and after a while said: "Happy birthday."

"Thank you." Huo Ran said with a smile.

"My mother said that children can't keep things. New clothes and toys must be taken apart as soon as they come into hand. They can't keep them for even a second," Kou Chen said.

"I just want to wear it to play ball," Huo Ran said, "it's pretty cool."

"Yeah," Kou Chen responded and looked down. Huo Ran's anklet was on his right ankle, and his was on his left ankle. They happened to be close together now. He also took out his mobile phone and looked at their feet.

I took a few pictures and thought, "Cool."

After saying that, he took Kou Chen's hand again. Both of them were still wearing bracelets from Licking the Sea. After taking a few more photos together, he put his phone back in his pocket: "Actually, Leather

Well, I really can't do it. Let Lao Yang do it, it will definitely look better."

Huo Ran smiled: "You haven't had your hands chopped off and smashed again."

"But the meaning is different," Kou Chen said. "He did the little twist last time. It was an unexpected surprise. I can't let him do it this time as your birthday gift."

"Actually, it's quite beautiful. It's really, really special. I never thought that the anklet could be made into a measuring tape, and I never thought that the words on it could be written like this," Huo Ran said, and only remembered to ask after he finished speaking.

One sentence, "Little twisty?"

"It's the little snake I gave you for the Chinese New Year," Kou Chen rubbed his nose, "I'm not afraid of snakes. When I was a kid, everyone didn't talk about snakes, they just talked about twists and turns. Little snakes are just twists and turns, so I don't feel scared when I hear them.

Already."

"Then you are Kou Niuniu." Huo Ran said.

"You are Huo Nianniu," Kou Chen pointed to the people next to him, "Hello everyone! I am Xu Nianniu, I am Xu Nianniu, I am Jiang Nianniu, Wei Nianniu, Hu Nianniu... here you go

Happy New Year!"

Huo Ran smiled and clapped.

During the two days on the weekend, everyone was in the gym, and the girls also practiced ball, but the level was negligible, or the word level was not used at all.

"We feel that the girls in our class can just go up and make up for the loss. After being eliminated, we can cheer for you with peace of mind. Are you good at arranging it?" Tang Wei said, "If you can't play ball, cheer we are still very good."

He’s good at it.”

"You are not as good as Wen 3. Wen 3 will not participate in the basketball game." Wei Chaoren said.

"Not participating?" Huo Ran was stunned and looked at Luo Feiyu. He was the sports committee member. He had signed up before. "Wen 3 is not going to participate? There are also school basketball players in their class, so you are not going to participate?"

"Well, they signed up last semester," Luo Feiyu said, "but a few days ago it was announced that there would be a competition next week. Liang Mulan went to cancel her registration on Friday and said she was withdrawing from the competition. People in her class only found out after the cancellation.

.”

"Holy shit, are you sick?" Kou Chen said, "Isn't this too disrespectful?"

"Did Wen 3 give a shout-out to the one who shouted last time? The whole class was dissatisfied with her," Xu Zhifan said, "Liang Mulan couldn't save her face."

"It's possible," Xu Chuan sighed, "Then if she does this, the people in her class will be even more dissatisfied with her. She is not a primary school student anymore. If you are fierce, I will be afraid of you. There will always be people who are unhappy. If it were someone like Kou Chen, maybe

I can fall out with you on the spot."

Everyone turned and looked at Kou Chen.

Kou Chen had no special expression on his face. He kept his usual pretentious demeanor, cold and calm, and then smiled with the corners of his mouth raised.

Because Wen 3 withdrew and the even-numbered grades were drawn, one class had to take time off and advance directly to the next round of eliminations.

Everyone wanted this opportunity. When Huo Ran went to draw lots during self-study in the afternoon, the whole class looked at him.

"With my luck that I can't win any prizes," Huo Ran walked out, "I will definitely find some time, don't worry."

The lottery was held in the conference room on the first floor of the office building. People from the student union and several teachers were there, as well as the captains of each class who drew lots.

Huo Ran was the last one to arrive. After he entered the conference room, a girl from the student union took a cardboard box and put it on the table. She turned around and asked, "Can you smoke it now?"

Someone stood up in the back seat closest to the window and walked to the table. It was Lin Wuyu.

Lin Wuyu was from the student union, but Huo Ran didn't know anything about the student union and didn't know what he was responsible for.

"There are two balls of each color inside," Lin Wuyu took the box and shook it, "The one with the same color as you is your class's opponent in the first game."

Then everyone started to get the ball from the box in class order.

The balls were taken out one by one, with different colors. Huoran took a black ball and felt that the color was not very beautiful.

He stared at the hands holding the ball one by one. When the last ball was taken out, he happily slapped the ball on the table: "Is it a bye?"

"Yes." Several people from the student union smiled and nodded, "You are really lucky."

"Let's place a bet." Lin Wuyu took out a notebook, put it on the table and bent down to write on it.

Several people from the student union and several teachers nearby responded immediately and placed bets one after another. Everyone who was drawing lots in the first year of high school was shocked.

Huo Ran was shocked when he first saw it, but their bet was also quite magical. The loser was responsible for buying food, drinks and snacks for all the team members. The bigger the bet, the more he bought. Last year, someone bought eight boxes of ham at once.

intestinal.

"I'll buy high school sophomore paper 1," Lin Wuyu said, "BBQ and spicy strips."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Huo Ran: "Let's be a little angry."

"We have no opponent in the first game." Huo Ran reminded him.

"I'll buy the ones at the back," Lin Wuyu said, "You guys fight well, and if you win, I can treat the people in your class to a barbecue alone."

"Okay." Huo Ran smiled.

The competition is from Friday to Sunday, and the match list has been watched since it was posted on Wednesday. Any group activities in the school are very exciting. Kou Chen thinks the main reason is that the atmosphere is very good.

In his previous school, not to mention very few organized activities, even when they were organized, everyone was half-dead. Not many people were willing to participate despite the teacher's instructions. It just felt boring. The only exciting thing was that any activity could be caused by a bullshit.

A meaningless look makes a fight, whether it's a boy or a girl.

Kou Chen is looking forward to all kinds of activities in the attached middle school now. He likes the feeling that everyone is laughing and having fun. Even if he doesn't have any friends here, he is willing to watch from the side.

What's more, now he has friends, a group of seven, and Huo Ran.

"In the first game, Theory 1 and Text 4," Huo Ran said, "our opponent is the team that wins between them."

"That's Li 1 and Wen 4. There's nothing to fight against. Except for Pang Pang, there's no one in their class who can even cooperate with Pang Pang," Kou Chen said. "Li 1 and the two school teams are the same as us, but their level is the same."

It's not as strong as us, but we have a captain after all, and he doesn't know how many tricks he has hidden in his mind."

"There are some chicken dishes that you will never see." Huo Ran said.

"I only tolerated you because of the competition," Kou Chen glared at him, "Enough is enough!"

"Why are you raising your head?" Huo Ran glanced at him.

"Li 1, can we win?" Kou Chen asked.

"You can win with fewer fouls. We don't have substitutes," Huo Ran said.

"Then tell some of them?" Kou Chen said, "Be careful..."

"No need," Huo Ran said, "You can fight however you want. If you foul, it's a foul."

"Damn it, what should I do if the substitute doesn't work?" Kou Chen said.

"Four people can fight, three people can fight," Huo Ran glanced at him, "I'm afraid of farts."

"You are crazy, captain." Kou Chen said.

"If you are not crazy now, then you will be crazy," Huo Ran said, "You have to be crazy during the competition."

The competition time is very tight, four outdoor venues are held at the same time, the boys' competition will be held first, and the final list will be announced in two days.

So although Wen 1 has no opponents in the first round and only has a game in the afternoon, the pressure is still very high, but the excitement is only here in the knockout rounds. There is no chance to adjust. If you lose one game, you will be out.

The team uniforms are made with class fees and are very unique. The girls in my class are particularly careful about these things.

The team uniform is white with red edges. On the left chest is the logo of their class, with crossed hands. Everyone's uniform has their own name, and a small pattern they picked themselves, printed on their pants.

Luo Feiyu picked a tooth pattern, which looked like an advertisement for dentures. Jiang Lei has three stripes. It is said that his biggest dream in elementary school was to be a captain, but he never did, so he only wears Adidas sports pants and sneakers.

Wei Chaoren chose candied haws, and wanted to specify the one with walnut filling, but Wu Xiaochen refused because it was too difficult to find a picture. Huo Ran's pattern was very simple, a... dog head. Kou Chen wanted to make a sickle, but Huo Ran strongly opposed it.

, and finally I used a cartoon that Shuaishuai drew when he met a street performer when he was a child.

Before the game started, the outdoor venue was already crowded with people. Those who couldn't fit on the sidelines were standing in the stands. Many people came with chairs and stood up to watch. The best ones found them from nowhere.

The herringbone ladder was placed to the side of the field, and several people climbed up from both sides. When Huo Ran saw it for the first time, he thought it was some kind of opening performance arranged by the student union.

The principal still gave a speech in the style of a sports meeting. He finished his speech in three sentences. When he announced that the competitions in the four venues would start at the same time, there was a burst of shouts and applause from all around, as well as the slogans of the cheerleading teams of each class.
