Just as she reached the door, Nami felt that something was wrong. Brook, Barry, Boy B, and the rest of the class stood outside the door, refusing to go in. Moreover, every few seconds, there would be two or three junior high school students rushing into their class. As the class monitor, Nami immediately stood in front of the door and said,""What do you have to do? Why are you going to work so casually?”
"Go to the side! Don't hinder us from meeting our idol!"
One of the little boys grabbed Nami's shoulder and pushed her to the side. Nami staggered and fell into Vivian's arms. Nami was immediately enraged. She turned around and was about to chase after the class, but she suddenly stopped when she saw the scene. In the classroom, countless children crowded around their seats like ants. Every child was holding a pen and notebook in their hands, scrambling to squeeze into the middle of the crowd. Sign it!" Nami thought that these people were ganging up on her table. The class was filled with voices. Nami and Weiwei didn't know what was going on, but they didn't dare to interfere. The class monitor was thinking, could it be that these kids were all on drugs? Where was he? After a while, Sanji stuck his body through the gap between the two girls with his school bag and looked at the class."Wahhh? Miss Nami, what happened?"
Wei Wei knew that she would not care about Sanji, so she grabbed Nami's hand and squeezed it. Nami turned to look at Vivi. Vivi's lips curled up slightly and her eyes narrowed, hinting at her to be gentle and talk to Sanji properly.
When her gaze returned to the classroom, Nami placed her hands on her hips and said to Sanji,""Who knew that a group of little ghosts would suddenly come and surround my seat.”
"Are they admiring your table? Aren't there a lot of non-mainstream brainless people in our junior high school?”
"I still have textbooks in my desk. They won't ruin them, right?”Nami looked at her phone." Ah, class is about to start."”
A tiny bit of orange ribbon tied into a bowknot peeked out of the sleeve of his long, thin school uniform. Sanji inadvertently noticed Nami's wrist. He could tell that it was the belt that he had given her. His heart suddenly thumped, and his burning blood rubbed against his veins. He felt the bejewelled nectar in his body slowly invading his spiritual core.
"Then…Nami, I'll go back to the classroom first.”Vivian let go of her hand.
"Okay, let's have lunch together."
"I'll come and find you then. I'll get Bell to send the set meal over.”
"Okay, bye."
Nami waved her hand lightly. When she turned around, she saw that Sanji had already started cleaning her seat. There were still junior high school students rushing into the classroom with their notebooks. Nami leaned against one side of the door frame and kicked the other side of the door frame, blocking them outside. Sanji pulled the little ghosts out and refused to budge. He pulled his hair and threw them into the air before kicking them out like a goalkeeper kicking a ball. After a few hits, the corner of Nami's table gradually revealed itself. Sanji felt like a miner, helping his beloved princess dig for gold one shovel at a time.
Half of the dark crowd had been cleared. The students standing at the door suddenly saw something in the middle of the darkness.
" S-Suo Long!?"
Everyone shouted in unison. Thrawn, who was busy signing, slowly raised his head. His hair was messy, and his face was covered with countless petite hickeys. Only then did Nami realize that the table surrounded by her juniors was not hers, but Sauron's, who was sitting behind her.
" Oh, so you're all here," Sauron said lazily." Why aren't you coming in?”
"Enter my ass?" Everyone pointed at the remaining ten or so junior high students in the class and shouted at the same time.
"F * ck, what are you doing?" Sanji walked up to him.
" You'll know even if you see it. It's an autograph!"
The boy kicked him on the table. What's wrong with these brats?"
"I say, Thrawn…you didn't write that article on the display panel, did you?”Nami asked.
"Ah…yes."
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim,"Wow!" exclaimed. The students gathered around and had a lot to say, but the bell rang. Fatty walked in with a pale gold trophy and raised his hand to shout," Those who are not from this class, get out!”The sound of high-heeled shoes could be heard from the corridor. Robin wasted a lot of time in the display column and ran in, tapping on the bell. A middle school student who had just been kicked secretly spat on Sanji's back on his way out, but he was discovered. Sanji kicked the child out of the window with a volley.
The classroom suddenly quieted down. The students returned to their seats. Only Robin stood at the podium and stared at the teacher as if he was thinking about something. Fatty placed the trophy in his hand on the table. On it was written " The 27th Oda Award for Best Work ", and further down was Sauron's name.
"Student Robin, go back to your seat. We have to start class.”Fatty said.
Robin took off his black backpack, took out a book and handed it to the teacher. Then he whispered something into his ear. Fatty opened the book and sighed.”He then put the trophy into the podium cabinet. Fatty's face turned green. The students were not sure what was going on and started discussing.
For the rest of the class, Fatty did not mention anything about the Literature Prize. Various thoughts and conjectures swirled in Thrawn's mind, but he did not express any opinion. He only occasionally stole glances at Robin's side profile during class.
The bell for the end of class rang. Today, the ringtone was playing Lin Junjie's " Jiangnan ", and the person singing was the principal. Fatty ran out of the door with the trophy as if he was being chased. The students covered their ears. It turned out that this fatty hated the principal's singing to such a crazy extent. Nami and Brook, who were sitting around, asked Thrawn,""Why did the teacher snatch your trophy?”Honor was a priceless treasure. They felt that this was the same as the accountant running away with money.
Sauron stuttered for a long time before saying,"" He's probably preparing to display it in the principal's office…Look, don't all teachers like to make a good impression in front of the principal? That's why he's so proactive…"
"Suo Long, you really brought honor to the class!”Brook's body was as stiff as a bamboo pole against the wall. The skeleton's body and its shadow on the wall formed a beautiful right-angled triangle." To celebrate, watch my sure-kill??”
Perhaps it was because he had been studying too hard for the exam, but when Thrawn saw Brook, he had the urge to find out its length, width, height, surface area, and circumference. At the same time, Nami also wanted to know what Robin had said to her teacher. Sauron's reason was obviously perfunctory. She wanted to go up and ask Robin, but she could not make a sound when she walked up to him. At this moment, she suddenly realized that there was a subtle barrier between them. This barrier was like a resistance, as if there was a wall full of steel nails in front of Robin. Once he thought of approaching her, he would immediately feel disgusted, just like how some men would secretly stare at their breasts when they were talking to him.
More and more students gathered around Sauron to ask him about the award. Later on, even Luffy, who was in his second year of high school, ran up and shouted loudly at Sauron,""You're amazing? Apart from killing people, he could actually write?”Boy A smiled evilly and immediately continued," This is called a hooligan who knows martial arts. No one can stop him…" Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked into the wall by Sanji. From the beginning, Sanji had been watching Sauron's success with a conflicted mood. He did not want Sauron's limelight to overshadow him, nor did he want others to slander his companions. He hoped that one day, he could also obtain the highest honor in the culinary world and fulfill his dream.
The classroom was bustling with activity. All kinds of thick and thin voices collided in the air, and in the end, there was only a vague buzzing sound. A few minutes later, Usopp ran into the classroom with a book in a black cover. He panted heavily and walked to the back of the classroom as soon as he entered. Among the many faces, he quickly found the bright-haired Nami. Before he could say a word, he grabbed the girl's hand and ran out of the door, panting.
Sanji's eyeballs almost flew out when he saw this. He let out two strange cries and rushed over. He grabbed Usopp's collar and scolded," What are you doing?!"
Usopp grabbed Sanji's wrist with his other hand.""I don't have time to chat with you! I have serious matters to attend to!" Usopp's red eyes made Sanji feel a sense of crisis, as if he was blocking a superman who was about to stop a volcanic eruption.
" I... I know..." Sanji let go of his hand.
When they arrived at the display board in the campus square, Nami leaned against the window of the display board. Usopp pressed his hands on the glass on both sides of Nami's shoulders and stared straight into the girl's eyes. Nami crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking a little anxious. She looked into his eyes and couldn't help but think to herself, Is he going to kiss me…?
Usopp took a few deep breaths, flipped open the book in his hand, and stuffed it into Nami's hands."I won't say anything else. Nami, look at this!”
"'Peeking Through a Cup'…Isn't this Han Han's anthology?”
"Great, so you've read it." Wu Suo Po patted the glass window behind Nami." Then read Suo Long's article!”
The girl turned around and read: That day, I rolled up the paper bag containing the tea leaves and put it into half a cup of water. As I watched the paper ball slowly expand, I suddenly thought of human nature, especially the deep-rooted bad habits of the Chinese people. Mr. Lu Xun's explanation is not complete. I have my own ideas. In the Three Character Classic of the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a saying,'Man is born good'…Oh my god! Wasn't the rest the same? Did Thrawn publish his copied work?!”
"Yes, this matter has blown up. You know what this display column symbolizes, right? The school's reputation is in it. We are a top university with many talents and are very popular with the outside world. From time to time, reporters will visit the campus…Maybe the reporters have already seen this article!”
"Ah…Then that means…"
"Yes…perhaps Thrawn will be expelled. Oda won't let him go."
In the noisy classroom, Sanji leaned against the door frame with his hands in his pockets. He was a little worried about Nami because Usopp would never do such a thing. He desperately thought about the " important thing " that Usopp had mentioned. All kinds of guesses gathered in his mind. He could even hear the sound of a huge motor turning in his brain. He repeatedly repeated the words " important things, important things " in his heart. Finally, a consciousness suddenly jumped out.? "F * ck! He couldn't be thinking of dating Nami, could he?”
"Damn it! Wu Suo…No, that guy with a chicken face, Nami is mine!”After saying that, Sanji wanted to run downstairs, but he was quickly attracted by a loud voice in the class.
The voice belonged to Boy A. He was telling Boy B a story he had experienced. This story attracted the attention of many students. A portion of the middle school students who were gossiping beside Thrawn also gradually shifted to that side.
Boy A sat on the stool and said,""On Sunday, Brother Han took me for a ride on his motorcycle. We passed by a printing factory. The factory had just opened and hired a celebrity to promote itself. At that time, there were several layers of people, and it was not easy to get through. They were all 14 or 15-year-old girls. Other than Auntie Ju Ping, there was no one else who could make teenagers admire her so much. Moreover, they were all girls from the same school. I thought, F * ck, it must be Guilihe, so I stretched my neck and jumped up to the stage. But after jumping for a long time, I only saw the host. I couldn't see the celebrity's face at all. Brother Han is still asking me if he hasn't come out yet. I said I didn't know. However, from the excitement of these girls and the conversation with the host through the loudspeaker, that person was indeed there. I asked Brother Han who was on the stage. Was it a singer or an actor? Why did he say "Fourth Master, Fourth Master, I"? Brother Han said that he's not an artist, but a writer like me. However, it was rumored that he had copied all his books and had even lost a lot of money. I replied with an 'oh'. At that time, there was a girl beside me. She was very good-looking and gave people the feeling that she was quiet and gentle. One look and you could tell that she was a good girl. She raised her 'V' sign and shouted loudly at the four halls on the stage, making my ears hurt. I feel that it's rare to encounter such a "country of women" scene. I can pick up a girl and go back. It's not a wasted trip. I walked over to her and asked,"Student, do you like this author that much?" The girl narrowed her eyes and said in a particularly bright and beautiful manner, of course! Lord Four is my eternal prince! At that time, I thought that these girls definitely didn't know about this author's plagiarism. If I told her this secret, she would definitely hug me warmly because I saved her. I whispered into her ear, You have to be careful when worshipping this author. Let me tell you a secret. Actually, this author's books are all copied. You've all been deceived by him. In the end, the girl slapped me in the face and shouted,"You're a f * cking idiot!" So what if you copied it? If you have the ability, copy it too! I was frightened by this aura at that time. A gentle and quiet girl immediately turned into a shrew with a mouth full of saliva when she heard the word plagiarism. It seems that this author is really capable. Later, the girl complained to the other girls around her. She pointed at us and said, It was them who scolded Little Four just now! Immediately after, 40 to 50 girls charged at us with bricks. Brother Han and I had never seen such a scene before. We quickly got on the motorcycle and fled. After that, I did a lot of research. I was thinking, how could this guy be so awesome to be admired by so many little girls? Because of this, I became more and more curious about his articles. Later, I went online to read his blog.”(This scene refers to Han Han's "His Country")
During Boy A's narration, Sauron kept his head down. He seemed to be casually chatting with a few junior high school girls about the topic of winning the award, but his heart was like two walnuts being slowly squeezed by a big hand, and there was a cracking sound in his chest. 'Is he mocking me…' Thrawn was conflicted.
"Then…how was that fellow's writing?”Brook sipped his coffee. The white porcelain coffee cup was printed with a skull pattern.
"Yes, I looked through several pages, but I didn't see his article. It's all his photos. Moreover, they had all put on makeup. The color of their necks and faces was obviously different. There was even a clear dividing line.”
Brook and Sanji exclaimed at the same time.
Boy B put on a poker face and said,"You should click on the title to read the full text. If you don't click on it, of course, there are only pictures. Moreover, it was not uncommon for boys to put on makeup these days.”
Boy A ignored him and continued,""Later, I asked Brother Han for his opinion. Brother Han said that I could read it myself. From the essence, Xiao Ming's things are commodities, not books. The value of a book was to be passed down to future generations, to be able to gain something from it, and to have the meaning of a collection. It was blasphemy against literature to use books to earn money. Especially when it came to earning money from little girls.
"Wow…this guy's words are quite sharp.”Sanji couldn't help but sigh.
"But…I don't think plagiarism is a big deal.”Boy B finally couldn't take it anymore. He said," At the very least, his status is there. He's number one on the author's wealth list. As long as he can make money, it's his ability. I like Little Four. I worship all capable people."
Sanji pursed his lips and replied," You should worship anyone who doesn't care about their self-esteem and human value, who earns a lot of money and doesn't break the law. Look at Sister Furong. No matter what her reputation is, people like her and she earns a lot of money.”
"Sigh, as far as I know, if an author plagiarizes in Europe, he will never be able to lift his head up and can only change his profession.”Robin also said," It's such a pity that such a thing happened to him in China.”
"Yes, yes, it can only happen in China." There was a newspaper in the United States that named him the most successful writer in China. In fact, it was scolding China. It was obvious that there were no good writers in China. If there was one who made a lot of money, he could only rely on plagiarism to survive. Moreover, there were countless ignorant people who had no taste and desperately supported him. How sad.”
Boy B was usually quiet and didn't even dare to make a sound when he walked. When he was in the same class as his classmates, he sometimes felt inexplicably inferior, especially when the results of the test were announced. He felt that as long as it was his own thing, whether it was his body or his mind, nothing could compare to others. He even thought that he was an " object " that should not exist. Usually, other than fooling around with Mr. A, she would just read some romance novels to comfort herself. Xiao Ming was the author of the novel. Every time Xiao Ming released a new book, he would squeeze into the bookstore with those 14 - 15-year-old little girls. He had never missed a single signing event in Beijing. During the signing event, although B was not tall, he could always jump and shout at the back of the crowd,"Little Four! Whether or not you copied the book, we will support you!!”It was a pity that he had never seen his idol on the signing stage. It was not because his jumping ability was not good, but because the idol was shorter than the little girl squeezed in front. Since then, he had been complaining on the Internet about the poor hardware facilities of XX Book Building. There wasn't even a high platform.
However, A replied," Isn't this very suitable? A small stage and a small character for 'Tiny Times'. Everything is mini. How cute!”
Mr. A was always in cahoots with Mr. B, but they were always at odds with each other on this matter. Mr. A didn't like reading romance books. He was only interested in martial arts and erotic novels. He felt that Little Ming was too pretentious. No matter what he did, he was always so high-profile. He was even a little shameless. It was as if all the girls in the world fell for him. A hated him, and at the same time, he couldn't stand B's worship of him. Every time B waved the book "Nana in the Summer Solstice" and strongly recommended him, A would always push him aside with vulgarities."What's so good about that kind of half-man, half-woman midget!”
However, introverted Boy B finally exploded in response to this sarcasm. He pounded the table and shouted,"How can you say that about Xiao Si?!" In any case, if they earn money, they are better than you! You guys are jealous of her!"
A laughed mockingly and sighed. He spread out his palm and said,"Yes, yes, we feel sorry for the children of the Celestial Empire. We're all jealous."
Mr. B was even angrier. He scolded," F * ck, what are you laughing at? He's the best writer in China. That's how strong he is!"”
Sauron finally couldn't hold it in anymore. Brook was very close to him. The green head sat on the seat and quietly pulled the clothes on his back."Hey, what number one author? Who are you jealous of?"
Brook replied,"Ah, they're talking about Shirunyan Guo Xiaoming, the Kakashi of the literary world. He was one of the few copycats in the literary world.”
Sauron gave a meaningful 'oh', and subconsciously thought,' Could this skeleton be mocking me too…'
" No, Mr. B, we're not jealous." Sanji had heard of this famous author and knew about his courageous deeds of plagiarism. In the face of the heated debate, he still hoped to look at this matter objectively and calmly." You see, Xiaoming is a writer, and many people are writers too. He is writing, and everyone is writing, but he uses opportunistic means to achieve results. This is disrespectful to the labor of others and unfair. I think Xiao Ming should still take a good look at life. What he's doing now is simply insulting literature. If this continues, there's no value in life. I don't know why you admire him so much, but you're too blind to pursue him like this.”
"Go, go, go! What right do you have to say that he copied it? Do you have evidence?？”B suddenly shouted.
"You can go back and see if he copied or not. His plot is too similar to other people's works. Do you dare to say that he didn't copy 'How Many Flowers Wither in the Fields?' I've already f * cking lost money!" Sanji was also a little excited.
B panicked and shouted,"F * ck! So what if he copied it! You can copy one too!"
When everyone heard the familiar words, they all smiled at Mr. B. There was nothing they could do.
The sun, which was close to nine o'clock, shone brightly on the square. Next to him, the bronze statue of Oda waving his hand appeared even more radiant and tall.
"Will Sauron be expelled?" Nami placed a hand on one side of her face.
" It's hard to say..." Usopp looked at the girl who was faintly reflected in the window." In short, let's teach Sauron to return the trophy and fight for leniency.”
Nami thought for a moment and suddenly realized that Robin had already seen through Thrawn's plagiarism, which was why he didn't let Fatty give the trophy to Thrawn. She must have done this out of good intentions. If she plagiarized and won an award, she would be scolded even worse later. Fatty had run so quickly just now, probably to go to the principal to ask for leniency according to what Usopp had said.
"Why would such an obvious plagiarized work be hung in the display column?”Nami really wanted to smash the display board and destroy the evidence before it caused a serious impact.
"All the works should be reviewed and approved by the principal, and then stamped with the colonel's seal before the works can be hung on the display column and awarded the corresponding awards. "Could the principal…" Usopp placed his hands on the glass. There were a few beads of sweat on his temples.
"It's very possible. This 'Peeping Through the Cup' is Han Han's earliest work, so it's reasonable that the principal hasn't read it…The key now is how to keep Suo Long's student status. Plundering is a big taboo!" Nami thought,'This article is posted on the school's honor roll, which is definitely a disgrace to the school.' Nami felt that if she were the principal, she would hang the plagiarist up and beat him up for two hours before tying him to a missile and slamming the launch button in anger. In short, he must die a horrible death.
"Hey, Nami, why don't you ask Robin to ask the director? Aren't they good friends? You and Robin are good friends too.”
Nami lowered her head, her eyes reflecting the green plants and the reflection of the glass windows. His thoughts spun like gears. Nami was still in her isolated little world, like a child looking for an exit in a foggy rainforest. After pondering for more than ten seconds, Nami grabbed the boy's wrist.""Let's go, Usopp, it's time for class.”
When the second lesson began, Thrawn's forehead and nose were drenched in sweat. The whispers Robin had shared with the teacher filled Thrawn's mind with guesses. " Could it be that Robin showed the teacher the original book…" He thought. Xin Gui was running rampant in his chest, afraid that the plagiarized article would be exposed.
The sunlight was cut into long strips by the gaps in the curtains and spread brightly on the green-headed desk. The boy's fingers were interlocked as he stared at the illustration of the English text for a long time.
When Kafa asked everyone to read the vocabulary list after reading, the sound of flipping pages came from all around. Among the many students, only Thrawn remained still in the long strip of light.
"Everyone, read the words. Starting from the fourth group, everyone read ten.”Ka Li said.
Then, the student sitting in the first seat stood up and read one by one. Sauron was the last student in the fourth group. The students in front of him were reading very quickly. It was obvious that they had reviewed last night. Sauron was a little flustered and quickly patted Nami in front of him.
"Hey, Nami, which page?"
Nami nodded and said in a low voice,""Page 169, unit 12.”
" Oh..." Sauron quickly flipped over and pressed his index finger on the paper to search, but he could not find the words that the previous student had read." Ah... Nami, where are you?”
Before he could finish, Nami had already stood up and started her 10 words. Sauron panicked. Robin held the book under the desk and quietly pointed at one of the words with his finger, indicating that " you should start reading from this word." Thrawn made a gesture of "Amitabha" to thank her. No matter what Robin had said to Fatty just now, from this point of view, he felt that Robin was sometimes quite kind.
"Well, monitor is really good! next，please。”Ka Li held the book in one hand and crossed his other hand in front of his chest.
Nami smiled and sat down. Thrawn stood up and stammered,"“apology;impact; In... influence... so...(associated) How do you read this?”
"Are you asking me?" Ka Li looked a little angry." Didn't I tell you yesterday to familiarize yourselves with it? What were you doing at home?!"
"Ah la la, did you write Teacher's name for the entire night?”Robin said softly as he held his chin.
His voice was louder than expected. Other than Cornish, many of the students around him couldn't help but laugh. Ka Li also blushed slightly. Thrawn gritted his teeth and glared at Robin. He had always thought that she was just joking with him, but today, the boy felt the malice in those jokes. Robin felt a little guilty and quickly waved his hand to apologize. Thrawn snorted and sat down awkwardly amidst the laughter.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. The dean, class teacher, and Fatty stood outside. Fatty tilted his body slightly and looked into the classroom. There was an ugly fawning smile on his face, like the frightened and embarrassed smile of a student who had been beaten up by a group of students in public. The dean spoke to Ka Dafa outside the door. Then, Ka Dafa returned to the class and said,"Student Suo Long, come out for a moment. The principal is looking for you.”
Sauron stood up again, his legs touching the chair.? The sound of friction with the ground. As he walked forward, he glanced at Robin meaningfully. This time, their seemingly casual gazes met, and Robin felt as if there was a time tunnel flashing with blue light flowing rapidly behind them.
Many students in the class were surprised by Sauron's departure. When they linked it to the fact that Fatty had taken the trophy, they felt that something was amiss. A small number of students who knew the reason remained silent. They nurtured their emotions in their hearts alone, secretly worried or gloating.
