Fox in the Penalty Area

The gate of Dongchuan Middle School is on Xiyuan Street, opening to the east. Xiyuan Street is a small street running north-south. On the west side of the street is the courtyard wall of Dongchuan Middle School, and on the east side are old residential buildings. Because of the close proximity to Dongchuan Middle School, the first floors of these residential buildings have been transformed into various shops. , there are canteens, small restaurants, bookstores and stationery stores. Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, and relying on schools, the business of these small shops is not bad.

Most of the time, the street is quiet, except when school starts and ends.

The small street is crowded with children's traffic and crowds. Even if there are traffic police here to maintain order, it is often useless.

Now is the first and busiest time of the day in Dongchuan Middle School.

Students going to school poured in from the north and south ends of Xiyuan Street, and gathered together with the vehicles sending their children to school. The streets were full of people, shoulder to shoulder.

In such a crowded crowd, there was a sudden shout.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

But like a stone being thrown into an extremely viscous liquid, the ripples did not spread too far, and quickly disappeared invisible.

Hu Lai could feel the blank eyes cast on him by the people around him. There was doubt, joking, and even disgust in those eyes.

He had never wished for more people to see it as he did now.

But no more, his voice only alarmed the people around him, and if it was a little farther away, everyone went to the school as usual, without even stopping.

Obviously, you can't be the prettiest kid in school with this kind of behavior.

Frustrated, he walked towards the school gate with his head down and the flow of people.

After one night, he had recovered from the surprise he had obtained the system, and began to worry about how to complete the task released by the system.

Be the prettiest kid in school.

It was just that simple sentence, without any explanation, nor did it tell him how to complete it.

What is the standard of the most beautiful boy?

Is it to attract the attention of all teachers and students in the school?

Is it to become the man of the hour that everyone in the school discusses?

But how to become such a man of the hour?

Obviously, leaning against the school gate and yelling is not okay.

Hu Lai is not the kind of top student with particularly good academic performance, so that his name can appear on the school's honor roll, or be on the rostrum of the flag-raising ceremony every Monday, be commended by the school, and be envied and admired by all the students in the school. gaze.

He is not the kind of bad boy who has a bad reputation, is feared by everyone, and can be criticized by the dean in front of the teachers and students of the school.

Although Hu Lai is well-known in the first and second classes of high school, he is still not well-known in the whole school, and he has not expanded his reputation to the whole school.

Hu Lai, who was walking buried in the crowd, opened the system interface again in his mind, and saw the mission in the mission log. The treasure box containing the mission reward was still glowing golden, floating in the air, waiting for its owner to open it.

But now Hu Lai just wants to sigh, he is close at hand, yet seems out of reach...

From the moment Hu Lai walked into the classroom, Li Qingqing had his eyes on him.

She was lying on the bed last night, as soon as she closed her eyes, the back figure of that boy riding a bicycle away at dusk would appear in her mind, swaying, and the shadow was very long.

She worried that she had blown the boy off.

Now she saw Hu Lai walking into the classroom weakly with his head down, walked to his seat, did not say hello to his deskmate, and sat down without taking a book from his schoolbag, but sat on the seat In a daze... Li Qingqing groaned inwardly—her worry became a reality!

It seems that he was really hit hard...

Am I...should I apologize to him?

Li Qingqing thought with some trepidation in her heart.

Song Jiajia saw that her deskmate was in a daze as soon as she entered, and subconsciously covered her school uniform pocket: "I don't have pocket money anymore..."

He thought Hu Lai's account had been stolen again.

Hu Lai turned to look at him, and suddenly asked: "Fatty Song, how do you think you can become a man of the school?"

Song Jiajia was taken aback for a moment, then rolled her eyes, and laughed: "Hey! What am I doing! Isn't it simple? When you are doing exercises between classes, you run to Class 1 of the third year, in front of you. All the students in the school confess to senior sister Tang Xiuyuan, and you will become a man of the school in no time!"

Tang Xiuyuan, who is in Class 1 of the third year of high school, is excellent both in character and academics. She is well-known in Dongchuan Middle School and has countless suitors.

Hu Lai glared at his unreliable tablemate: "What bad idea did you come up with! How can I deceive other people's feelings in order to achieve my own goals!"

Song Jiajia rolled her eyes: "Thinking too much, Hu Lai, how could you deceive people's feelings? You will just change from the laughing stock of Class 1 and Class 2 of high school to the laughing stock of Dongchuan Middle School. Aren't you going to become a man of the hour?" ? To put it bluntly, Fengyun is a traffic star, as long as he can attract attention and traffic? Being praised and scolded can attract traffic, and being laughed at is just as good..."

Hu Lai was stunned.

Because he found that what Fatty Song said... had some truth to it.

The mission statement just wants him to be the most handsome boy, and there are no restrictions on any conditions. Anyway, as long as he attracts attention?

Exercises between classes, exercises between classes...

Hu Lai suddenly had an idea in his mind.

So he suddenly grabbed Song Jiajia's arm, smiled and said, "Thank you for your reminder!"

Song Jiajia was frightened: "Why? Are you really going to confess to your senior sister? Well... don't say you are my deskmate when you go out in the future!"

He shook off Hu Lai's hand vigorously, intending to cut the mat with him.

Dongchuan Middle School has a 15-minute break between the third class and the fourth class every morning. As long as it does not rain, all the students in the school will be organized to the stadium to do radio gymnastics to liberate them from heavy study Get out and exercise.

The starting point of radio gymnastics is so good, but the students don't appreciate it. What they want to hear most is that the school radio station equipment is out of order, or there is a temporary power outage, so there is no need to do radio gymnastics.

This gives them fifteen minutes of free time, which they can arrange as they please.

But unfortunately, whether it is equipment failure or temporary power outage, such times are very, very rare, so most of the time, students will be rushed to the playground by their class teachers to do radio gymnastics.

The students didn't like it, so they were naturally reluctant to do it, and almost everyone was perfunctory about it.

It stands to reason that when radio gymnastics was designed, it took into account that the range of each movement can play a greater role in exercise for students.

But in fact, none of the students can achieve the design standards of radio gymnastics.

For example, in the chest expansion exercise, it is required to take a step forward with the left foot and form a small lunge.

But when most of the students do this movement, they only move their body weight slightly forward, and the left foot is not a lunge. The two arms are not raised flat, but only slightly lifted, and then waved to the sides symbolically, which is regarded as the completion of a chest expansion exercise.

The teachers also know the minds of the students, they turn a blind eye to this, and have long defaulted to the perfunctory approach of the students. No one will ask the students to do every movement properly, that is It's hard to find.

But today, on the Dongchuan Middle School's stadium, there was an "exception"...

Li Qingqing stood in the queue, raised her hand but completely forgot to do it, she turned her head and stared blankly in front of her.

In her sight, Hu Lai rushed out with a lunge, almost bumping into the back of the classmate in front of him, and he almost fell to his knees on the ground with his lunge.

Then he raised his arms horizontally and made a very exaggerated chest expansion movement, and the whole person bounced back.

Because of too much force, he almost lost his balance, took several steps back, and almost bumped into the person behind him—if that person didn't get out of the way quickly...

The person who walked away shouted angrily: "Hu Lai, what are you doing!"

"Do exercises seriously!" Hu Lai was very busy, busy doing exercises, and replied without looking back. "Exercise for learning!"

Then he ejected all over again...

He said that he was doing exercises seriously, but his exaggerated movements combined with his physical incoordination made it full of humor and joy in the eyes of others.

Beside Li Qingqing, there was laughter: "Look at Hu Lai!"

"Haha! What is he doing?"

"He said he was serious about doing exercises? The question is, is this serious about doing exercises?"

"Look at that man..."

"To see him……"

"Look..."

"Hahaha! Looks like an idiot!"

"It's just an exercise, don't you want to be so funny?"

"Hey, who is that guy?"

"I don't know, it seems to be from Class One and Two of Senior High..."

This time it was no longer a small stone thrown into the viscous liquid, but a large stone was thrown into the pond with force, and the waves surged, causing ripples to ripple around.

The students in the first and second classes of high school cast their gazes over, the students in the next class turned their gazes over, and the students in the next class... more and more people forgot to do exercises, turned around and stepped on their feet, and turned to the students in the first and second classes of high school. Phalanx looked over.

Until the dean, who was standing on the rostrum to maintain order, found that most of the students had stopped their movements and turned their heads to look at the same place.

He looked along curiously, and saw Hu Lai who was exaggerating as if he was dancing a great god.

Holding the microphone, he pointed at Hu Lai and yelled, "That student in Class 1 and 2 of Senior High! What are you doing?!"

The majestic voice of the teaching director reverberated in every corner of the school through the school's broadcasting system, resounding in the ears of every teacher and student of Dongchuan Middle School.

At the same time, a section of solemn music sounded in Hu Lai's mind.

Accompanied by this musical sound, the emotionless voice followed:

"I have become the most beautiful boy in front of all the teachers and students in the school. After completing the task, I will get the novice gift bag as a reward for the task."

This mechanical sound is now the most pleasant sound in the world to Hu Lai's ears.

He laughed, and under the watchful eyes of all the teachers and students in the school, under those puzzled, surprised, joking, and gloating eyes, he continued to do the funny radio gymnastics hard.

He didn't care about those gazes, he only knew that his life might be different because of it...
