Hunter and Hussar

Chapter 10 Miller's Goal

"I knew you would come to ask me." Mi Le lay on his back on his bed and played with his mobile phone.He had just taken a shower, hadn't put on his socks yet, and his little feet were hanging down from the edge of the bed along his legs.

He told me that he had heard that he would join the football club when he entered the school team.

"Then why didn't you go? I thought you didn't know about the trial."

"Who is like you, it seems like you haven't woken up all day." He snorted softly, "I thought you wanted to go to the literature club more than the school team, so you didn't choose the football club."

Am I so important?Can it influence other people's decisions?Doesn't it depend on whether he wants to play football or not, but whether I go or not?Although I play football as an accompaniment to Xianxian, I still don't want to interfere with other people's judgments and decisions.If other people have their own desires, but because of me, they change and do something they are not so passionate about, I will feel extremely ashamed.No one is qualified to let others change or even sacrifice for themselves.I would be very disturbed if a person did more than a certain limit for me.After all, you have to ask yourself: Can I afford the excess of others, or do the same thing as them?Despite the selfless kindness I experienced many times, I felt like I was being reined in by these actions and would be led away sooner or later.People who help me may also hope that I can give a sufficient response.

Seeing that I didn't reply, Mi Le spoke by himself:

"After all, I don't know Brother Chuan very well. I only met Boss Ye and the others because of you. In the first week, I saw that you and your sister went to the literature club to sign, so I found a club in Qingshui Yamen to play casually." , I don’t know many people anyway.”

"Isn't Taotao in the football club?"

"Brother Tao..." Although there were only the two of us in the dormitory, he still hesitated for a moment, "It's not good to talk about others behind their backs. If I really want to say, Brother Tao is pretty nice, but when I'm with him Nothing to say. I guess he doesn't know what to say to me."

Tao Tao really seldom speaks.

"So if you don't go, it's meaningless for me to go there by myself." As he spoke, he kicked his little foot into the air, as if kicking away a pebble or an empty Coke bottle.

"But we played cards that day, didn't you have a good time with Ye Boss and the others?"

"That's because you're here, and somehow I feel that I can let go. Think about it, doesn't Brother Chuan often fight with Boss Ye? But he is not very active in class, it seems that only Hei Ye Ruiyang That’s when he talks a lot.”

"You make it sound like Brother Chuan wouldn't be Brother Chuan without Ye Ruiyang."

"It's hard to say, I don't know Boss Ye. But the presence or absence of acquaintances does have a great influence on people."

"Then tell me, which one is the real Brother Chuan? The one who doesn't like to talk and studies hard every day, or the one who puts all his heart into being Ye Ruiyang's father?"

"I think they are both? Or he is the two put together." He tilted his head, "I seem to be the same too. This question is a bit esoteric, so I have to think about it."

His two feet hang neatly in the air.I feel a little cute and can't help but want to scratch it.

"Hey, what are you doing!" He kicked me on the forehead as if he had been electrocuted, "Big villain!"

"Why, you are allowed to pinch my face, and I am not allowed to scratch your feet?" I did show a smirk.

"That's to wake you up, okay? It also made me stand with you! But your face is really comfortable to rub."

"So are you coming to the team? There's still one spot left."

"Come on." He sat up cross-legged, looking like he wanted to protect the soles of his feet, "Well, do you want to go to study together at night?"

The evening self-study on Friday and Saturday is concentrated in several classrooms for the remaining students.There are not many people who live on campus, and even fewer stay on campus on weekends.During these two days of the week, Mi Le and I sat at adjacent desks.

Mi Le is a person who is very concerned about his studies. He finishes his homework early every day, and then reviews or does extra exercises. He also memorizes words in the dormitory.But whenever I talk to him, he puts the English textbook aside.However, he is not the kind of nerdy elementary school bully, he is very good at poker, not just Three Kingdoms, he can easily learn the poker we play here, and old players like Ye Ruiyang have fallen into his hands several times.The running test in the physical education class is also among the best, and the speed and physical fitness must be much better than mine.If someone asks him about games, music, or anime, he can also chat a few words.

He is really outstanding, otherwise No. [-] Middle School would not easily accept a student from other provinces.

But he seems a little too obsessed with the score?Last week, he told me that he went to Mr. Huang to check the results and rankings of the three subjects in the entrance examination, and by the way, he also checked mine.He ranked 600th out of more than 127 people in the school, and I ranked 256th.That night he dragged me to the corridor and analyzed for a long time, saying that if the high school wants to stay in No. 250 Middle School smoothly, it must be at least within 120.There are a total of more than [-] people in the three experimental classes, and there are thirteen ordinary classes left. Only those who can get in the top ten of the class can enter the high school steadily.

As a result, he became more and more nervous.Counting the scores of the entrance examination, we found that there was a difference of 17 points between the two of us, and there were 129 people separated in the ranking, and one point equals seven or eight people.And if he got 280 points in the test, he would only be in the 70s.Later, I asked my sister about her grades, and she was very surprised. Since two years ago, she has never told me about her scores and rankings, and of course I would not ask.She is 15th, 97 in Chinese, 95 in mathematics, and full marks in English.

"You don't have to take the entrance exam too seriously. Each subject has 100 points, and the error tolerance rate is very low. Of course, if you miss it by one point, many people will miss it. It only represents your grades in primary school, and now it's all turned upside down. The senior high school entrance exam also includes political, history, and geography students. Well, it all counts.”

I told Mi Le what my sister said, so that he would stop frowning over this matter.It can be seen that he should be among the best in his hometown, but now that he has gone to a better school, his grades are not so top-notch, and he feels a little bit behind.

He said that you must do well in the midterm exam.This makes me more convinced that he doesn't come home every week just to study at school.

So I pulled him to play football, right?He really wasn't reluctant, but I was always a little worried that I would delay him.Staying with someone like me who doesn't have such high pursuit of grades for a long time may affect his attitude towards learning.And our respective family environments are definitely different, so maybe I can be indifferent. In terms of grades, my parents didn't have very specific requirements for me and Xianxian.He belongs to the one who doesn't need to worry much, and has always been the top few in the class.Me, as long as it's not too bad they don't care.

Since two years ago, they basically seldom talk to me about grades, and no one talks about grades when eating with my sister's family.

And what about Miller?I don't know what's going on with his family.

"Ke Ke, you have to study hard too." He kept saying that.

"Why do you care about me so much?" I asked once.

"I want to be admitted to the high school with you. Everyone knows that No. [-] Middle School is one of the best middle schools in the city and even the province. Maybe we can be assigned to the same class."

"Aren't you afraid that your parents will take you away suddenly?"

He got angry and ignored me that afternoon.I decided not to joke anymore.

Ye Ruiyang was also there during self-study last night. His home is not far from the school, and it only takes ten minutes to ride a bicycle.He is not very willing to study at home, but unlike Mi Le, his home is "too much a learning atmosphere", and his father has been watching him from behind as he does his homework.I mentioned this to my sister, and she said it smelled like Big Brother, which I didn't quite understand.

Ye Ruiyang's grades are better than mine, probably in the top three in the class.He watched the game every day, and his grades did not drop at all. He must have put in more effort than others.He sleeps on the table every break, no matter how much the sun is shining or the classroom is noisy, it will not affect his high-quality sleep.Whenever the class bell rang, he would get up as quickly as a phone call, and never fell asleep.

But his father still thinks that he is idle and not doing his job properly. It is said that he has not told his parents about his going to the school team.I didn't say anything, but most likely my parents knew about it, and they might be quite happy.The differences between adults may be much greater than those between children.

Brother Chuan and Mingming's grades are at the same level as Ye Ruiyang's. The former's parents should both be university teachers. He must be very smart and know how to work hard. The latter's father is a doctor like his uncle and aunt. They seem to work in the same hospital. Do you recognize them? It is not clear.

As for Zhang Taotao, he didn't know anything, and no one asked him.
