Chapter 299 You brought the little girl into the room, didn't you?

2023-08-18

Xiao Yao calmly kicked the bathroom door shut, locked it from the inside, then picked up a toilet peg and smashed the hard end against the mirror.

This strange thing touched the mirror and passed straight through it.

Are you trying to cheat?

Xiao Yao pulled out the toilet peg, took a deep breath, concentrated his mind and attention, and pushed it back in.

This time, the toilet peg successfully touched the mirror, but the mirror did not break; instead, the handle of the toilet peg bent.

This thing is so soft, are you trying to kill yourself?

Xiao Yao circled the bathroom three times but couldn't find a single tool that suited him.

Since it's impossible to move the toilet and bathtub, and the shower head cord in the bathroom isn't long enough to reach them, the best solution is to go outside and move a chair.

Then the story of "Gao Sijun's roommate is a martial arts fanatic" might spread throughout the entire camp tonight, right?

Xiao Yao suppressed his fear, forced himself to calm down, bent down to pick up Shen Jie's shoes, opened the door and walked out, saying to Gao Sijun, "These are my girlfriend's shoes. She's lazy and asked me to clean them for her, so I just left them here."

Gao Sijun touched his neck, grinned, and winked at Xiao Yao: "You brought the little girl into the room, didn't you?"

Xiao Yao frowned, a murderous intent rising within him, followed by a series of scathing denials.

Gao Sijun, being rather oblivious, continued to wink and say, "Pretend, still pretending. We're all men, who doesn't understand? Last time I needed to use the restroom and you wouldn't let me in, I knew there must be someone inside, I just didn't call you out."

The fact that this guy could speak like that meant he had no ill intentions; he was just a simple, annoying person. However, Xiao Yao's desire to kill him to silence him continued to grow every second. He chuckled dryly under Gao Sijun's knowing look, while futilely continuing to deny and refute.

Gao Sijun changed the subject and praised Xiao Yao's girlfriend for being beautiful. Xiao Yao thought to himself, "Nonsense, do you need to tell me that?" but thanked him for his appreciation. Then, the guy started babbling on and on, saying that the shoes were so small they looked like children's shoes. He was surprised that Yu Luying, who was so tall, had such small feet. Xiao Yao didn't know if he meant anything by it or not, and just wanted to slap him in the face with the sole of Shen Jie's shoe.

No, why should he be rewarded?

The two were as close as brothers, chatting for a while with their arms around each other's shoulders. They agreed to go out for drinks together after summer camp, with Xiao Yao paying.

Xiao Yao also promised to teach him his "secrets to picking up girls" in the future and to help him "keep an eye out".

“You’re a college student now, why would you want a high school girl?” Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"Hey—what does it matter? I'm only a freshman, less than three years younger than him," Gao Sijun said nonchalantly.

"It's really difficult with your height," Xiao Yao thought.

“Hey, brother,” Xiao Yao said quickly, seeing that the time was right, “My affairs are not for outsiders to know.”

"Okay, okay, don't worry." Gao Sijun patted his chest and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal if people find out. It's just bringing my girlfriend to the room to play, not to sleep."

Xiao Yao was unsure whether the other person was trying to get more information out of him, so he didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, the evening's activities were about to begin.

Gao Sijun called Xiao Yao to leave together, but Xiao Yao made an excuse to let him go first. Several minutes after his roommate left, Xiao Yao picked up a chair from the room, rushed into the bathroom, and smashed the mirror to pieces in a fit of rage.

Then, he swept the glass shards into the dustpan with a broom and dustpan, sprayed a lot of water on the floor with a showerhead, turned the small bronze mirror that Gao Sijun had placed on the TV cabinet upside down on the table, and then sent a message to Gao Sijun informing him that he had slipped and fallen in the bathroom because of the wet floor, and accidentally broke the mirror with the toilet peg in his hand. He had cleaned it up himself, but asked him to be careful of the remaining glass shards, and so on.

After thinking for a moment, he sent text messages to Yu Luying, Shen Jie, and others, telling them to be careful of the mirrors in the hotel room, and also informing Shen Jie of the good news that "the shoes have been found".

After doing all this, he put Shen Jie's shoes in a plastic bag and prepared to attend the "Beach Movie Night" event that evening.

Before putting the shoes into the plastic bag, I first put my fingers inside and checked them twice, then sniffed them to make sure there were no foreign objects inside.

...It's a bit strange, but really, it smells strangely pleasant.

Xiao Yao went out and closed the door behind him.

As mentioned earlier, tonight's group activity is "Movie Night," or more precisely, an open-air movie on the beach.

Xiao Yao was quite looking forward to the open-air cinema format, as he had never seen one before.

As a campus folk music enthusiast, Xiao Yao had heard of the old album "Open-Air Cinema" a long time ago, but he had never heard the songs in it.

He also often remembers the sentiment of "midnight movies, filled with ancient love stories, singing for the young in the darkness."

However, even when he was very young, even in the small town of Dongru where he was born, Xiao Yao had never seen an open-air movie.

Compared to the format of the movie, Xiao Yao wasn't particularly looking forward to the content of the movie that evening; he was content with just watching it casually.

The parish summer camp will definitely show some non-commercial, self-indulgent "gospel movies," or, in Xiao Yao's words, inspirational movies.

There's nothing else wrong with it—it's just not very good-looking.

Xiao Yao is the most intolerant of motivational speeches, otherwise he wouldn't feel so uncomfortable sitting on pins and needles during his long morning classes.

Surprisingly, both films that were scheduled to be shown seem to be quite interesting.

The first one is "Greater Glory," which, according to the description, is a war film about the Mexican government's ban on the church in the 20s and the people's uprising. The second one is called "Modern Exorcist," which tells the story of a young priest's journey from doubt to belief, and is based on true events.

"Hey, damn it, who picked this movie? It's interesting." Ribbonfish rubbed his hands excitedly.

"It seems... to be my uncle?" Yu Luying said uncertainly.

The circumstances surrounding this open-air cinema event can be briefly described as follows.

As night falls on the beach, the starry sky adorns the darkness, and the waves gently lap at the sand, bringing a sense of tranquility.

This beach is closed at night; it's been booked by the event organizers, so there aren't many people around.

More than 300 students gathered together, some sitting on chairs, some on small stools, some curled up on blankets, and some standing with their arms crossed, talking to each other in hushed tones.

Several tall, strong boys stood at the back of the crowd, away from it, and started playing basketball until they were stopped by volunteers from the logistics team who were in charge of discipline.

Yu Luying had secured a good spot in the front row and even saved a seat for Xiao Yao, so she must have arrived quite early. She was wearing brown shorts and barefoot in plastic sandals.

Chapter 300 Shen Jie, unable to bear it any longer

2023-08-18

Yu Luying had secured a good spot in the front row and even saved a seat for Xiao Yao, so she must have arrived quite early. She was wearing brown shorts and barefoot in plastic sandals.

The screen, tall, wide, and imposing, was set up at one end of the beach. Constructed from specially made white fabric, it complemented the natural hues of the sand. In the shadows of night, a huge projector was hidden behind the screen, emitting a low hum that illuminated the area in front of it.

As the music began, the large screen gradually lit up, displaying a bright image—though it wasn't actually that bright, but Xiao Yao really liked the grainy texture of the film.

The projector lights flickered in the darkness, projecting colorful and vibrant beams of light onto the screen and also onto the students' faces in fragmented way.

Xiao Yao stared intently at the screen, expressing his anticipation.

Between Heaven and Earth

Between light and darkness

Between Faith and Sin

My heart is here.

"Here is God, and here is my heart..."

After the ethereal singing, the film's story unfolds in the darkness, revealing long-buried secrets.

The sea breeze gently caressed Yu Luying's hair, and the soft sound of the waves accompanied the film's dialogue, creating a warm and unforgettable experience.

Xiao Yao felt indescribable emotions on this special night.

When the military police kicked open the church doors, opened fire on the people attending Mass, and smashed the altar and icons, Xiao Yao heard low gasps from the crowd around him.

Then, a hand took hers.

No, he squeezed himself tightly.

Xiao Yao turned to look at Yu Luying, only to see her tightly pursing her lips, her face full of nervousness.

Xiao Yao thought to himself, "I really envy how engrossed they are in a movie."

The boy held the girl's slightly trembling hand with one hand and squeezed it twice. With his other hand, he patted the top of her head to comfort her.

Then, naturally, their hands were clasped together.

When the Christ army won several consecutive victories and dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, cheers erupted from the crowd, and a few mischievous boys made strange noises.

"This atmosphere is great; this is what an open-air movie should be like," Xiao Yao thought with satisfaction.

You won't find this kind of atmosphere in a movie theater.

Xiao Yao decided that participation was the most important thing, so he let go of Yu Luying's hand, clenched his right fist, raised it above his head, and shouted, "KILL THEM ALL!"

The clamor in the crowd immediately fell silent, and then hundreds of eyes turned towards the direction from which the sound came. Startled, Xiao Yao immediately lowered his hand and then looked around with everyone else, pretending to see who had shouted.

Three seconds later, a harmless laugh rippled through the crowd, and then everyone continued watching the movie.

Yu Luying patted Xiao Yao's chest lightly, then leaned into his arms.

Xiao Yao casually stroked Yu Luying's biceps and continued watching the movie.

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse. With supplies running low at the front, women wrapped bullets around their waists and inside their underwear, and traveled by train right under the noses of the government troops to deliver supplies to the insurgents.

Xiao Yao looked down at Yu Luying and asked, "If it were you, would you have the guts to do something like this?"

Before Yu Luying could answer, Xiao Yao felt a figure blocking the light to his left.

At first he didn't pay attention, but the person stood there for seven or eight seconds without moving, which made him unable to help but look up at her.

Xiao Yao saw a petite girl whispering something in the ear of the girl to his left.

Then, the girl nodded, stood up, and left with a slight bow.

The petite girl sat down to Xiao Yao's left and casually crossed her legs.
