Bathed in the sunset, the basketball stadium is brightly lit, and every corner is filled with a strong party atmosphere. Colorful ribbons and balloons are everywhere, and it looks like Disneyland; right in front of the gate, there are colorful stars. The balloons were gathered together and formed a large arch, which was particularly eye-catching; next to it were two inflatable pencil figures taller than the building, dancing crazily.
The flashing neon lights reflected the young and energetic faces, and the joy and joy of high school students surged in the air.
"How about it? Doesn't it feel very familiar and friendly when you see the basketball stadium?" Julia's smile returned to her face and she said briskly.
Lu Ke burst into laughter, "It's okay. In fact, the school started building a basketball gym the year I graduated from elementary school. I heard it was a charitable donation from a certain rich man."
The elementary school where Lu Ke attended did not have a basketball gym or basketball team. Therefore, Lu Ke chose rugby.
"Destiny is indeed interesting. If it had been two years earlier, would the 49ers have lost their leading quarterback?" Julia winked playfully, and both of them couldn't help but smile at each other, "Honestly Said, I can't imagine you standing on the basketball court."
Lu Ke shrugged, "For most people, they can't imagine me standing on a football." Then, Lu Ke spread his hands and expressed helplessness, "Now it seems that they are destined to be disappointed."
The words were understated but filled with upright confidence. Julia couldn't help laughing and laughed happily.
Walking through the arch, through the gate, and then saw the bustling queue at the entrance, forming a traffic jam:
Two students whose gender cannot be identified, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, wearing a one-piece raccoon jacket, their movements are clumsy, every move, one after the other, is a huge project, the area is really too large, causing Solved a series of subsequent blockage problems;
Among the team, there was also a boy dressed as a decapitated knight, with a plastic prosthetic head hanging on his shoulders. He then wore a knight's uniform with high and wide shoulders, hiding his head inside. The entire costume was also wide and wide. clumsy;
Another couple painted themselves green and dressed up as a "Shrek" couple, and even more bizarrely, they were leading a donkey - an inflatable balloon, not a real donkey;
A tall girl wore a corset and high-waisted pants, showing off her proud curves, and paired it with a scarlet cloak. She looked exactly like a vampire count;
The most exaggerated one is a boy wearing a flesh-colored jumpsuit with a skeleton pattern on the outside. In a dimly lit place, when the fluorescence is displayed, it looks like a skeleton dancing; moreover, he is also wearing a colorful cape jacket and The various acrobatic hats are all decorations of traditional Mexican culture.
…
The costumes in front of me are really diverse and dazzling. It seems that every student has spent countless thoughts and deliberately wants to be different and shine at tonight's homecoming dance; they haven't even had time to enter the dance yet. Inside the hall, Lu Ke had already deeply felt the cultural differences coming to him.
"Weren't you so crazy when you were in high school?" Julia caught the surprise and curiosity in Lu Ke's eyes.
"No." Lu Ke shook his head and chuckled, seeming to recall those scenes from high school again, "In our senior year, the homecoming dance was a retro party, styled from the 1950s to the 1970s, and then You know, the whole dance floor was Elvis Presley and then Marilyn Moonroe."
"I remember, Logan is Michael Jackson (mihael-jakson)!" Julia's memory was also reawakened, she showed a bright smile and gave the answer.
Lu Ke nodded in affirmation, "We are all Michael Jackson. In fact, at that time, I remember there seemed to be eight or nine Michaels. Then at the dance, everyone was competing to see who danced the most like him." In fact, it was nothing more than that. It happened four years ago, but when I think about it now, it feels like a lifetime ago.
"Dancing?" Julia covered her mouth and looked at Lu Ke up and down in disbelief. She could not imagine Lu Ke dancing at all. The questioning eyes fell into Lu Ke's eyes. He raised his hands to express surrender. "Tonight, I am responsible for protecting the flowers, but I am not responsible for the dance partner."
The distant, fearful expression made Julia burst into laughter.
While chatting, the line gradually began to shorten, and every student arriving at the scene had to register, not only for reporting, but also to vote for the king and queen of the homecoming dance.
The registration action has two purposes. The first is to receive ballots, and each person can only receive one. The second is to confirm attendance. Only the students who have confirmed their attendance will have their votes counted.
Julia stood on tiptoes and poked forward, looked at Lu Ke, and asked, "The queue will probably take a while. Otherwise, shall we go in directly? Anyway, I have no idea about voting for the king and queen. Any interest.”
"Are you sure?" Lu Ke also glanced forward. With his height advantage, he could have a panoramic view of the situation in front of him even if he stood still. "There are only three groups in front of us. But, that one is wearing a panda hood. It looks like it's taking up a lot of space."
Suddenly, there was a commotion right in front, which seemed to have caused a quarrel. It interrupted the conversation between Lu Ke and Julia. They reflexively looked away. Amidst the loud music, there were voices arguing with each other. .
"We just came here to sign in, it only takes thirty seconds..."
"Then please line up, you must line up!"
"The team is for losers. Do I look like a loser?"
"When you come over and jump in line, you're a loser!"
…
They argued back and forth without giving in. Before Lu Ke could react, Julia had already shouted, "Quine up! Please line up politely!" Immediately afterwards, other students behind him also started shouting, "Don't jump in line", "Come over and queue up", "What the hell", etc., all kinds of complaints were made without any cover-up.
Public dissatisfaction broke out, and the commotion at the front gradually calmed down, and then a man and a woman were seen turning around and walking back.
The road into the basketball stadium is very wide. On the left is a long queue for signing in, and on the right is the passage for direct entry without any sign-in. It seemed that just now these two people had rushed in directly from the right side and circled to the front, intending to jump in line; but now they had to retreat back in despair.
"Julia? It's you!" A surprised voice rang next to him, and Lu Ke secretly sounded an alarm in his brain: No way? Is high school-style shit going to happen here? "That was you just now, right? If you want revenge, isn't this method too childish and stupid? Even elementary school students are smarter than this."
The girl standing in front of her was wearing a small white suspender belt paired with a white leather one-line skirt, and a pair of knee-length black boots, which outlined her beautiful leg curves and grabbed the attention. Her proud bust was about to appear, and she had long golden hair. The hair is let down lazily and casually, which makes it more charming.
Unfortunately, that arrogant and provocative expression ruined the overall feeling. More importantly, after getting closer, you can see the heavy makeup on her cheeks, and the peacock blue eyeshadow is particularly eye-catching, as if she had been punched hard by someone just now.
Jenny Donagan!
Julia couldn't help but clench her hands, and her muscles became tense. There were rebuttal words surging in my mind, and I had thought of such a response; but unfortunately, it got stuck in my throat, and I couldn't make any sound. This made Julia even more annoyed, annoyed at her clumsiness and slowness!
"So you haven't been to school? Even elementary school students should know that queuing is a basic quality." Lu Ke's familiar voice came from behind. Julia breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Jenny's stunned look. His expression was twisted, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly.
"You!" At this moment, Jenny noticed Lu Ke standing next to her, frowned, and was about to retort, but then she realized that she was wrong, so she was suspended in mid-air, neither up nor down, really Uncomfortable.
"Julia, who is this?" Jenny didn't speak, but the boy standing next to her opened his eyes wide and asked.
Lu Ke frowned slightly and sighed secretly. Are all high school students so stupid? He couldn't hide anything on his mind, it was written clearly on his face. Wait, think back to when you were in high school, it seems, like, maybe, probably, it's almost the same.
His thoughts just flashed by, Lu Ke patted Julia's arm to reassure her, and interjected, "If I were you, I wouldn't act so eager in front of my female companion, otherwise, I would It's like you're trying to tread two boats, which is the most unwise move."
Lu Ke briefly looked at the boy. The boy has a well-proportioned figure and a strong physique. He stands out among ordinary high school students. He wears a formal black suit and a white shirt. He has a Zorro-style black eye patch on his face and short blond slightly curly hair. He looks suave and elegant. , unrestrained and unrestrained.
At this time, the boy was also a little surprised and stunned. He raised his head and looked at Lu Ke, with a small flame of anger flashing in his eyes.
"Are you Mark Quintez?" Lu Ke also reacted immediately. It seemed that this was not a coincidence, but a close encounter. "Julia, I thought you had a higher vision."
The subtext is to satirize Mark's low quality and simply not worthy of Julia.
Julia tried hard to restrain herself. She tried very hard, but she still couldn't hold it back. She laughed out loud, then pretended to be fine and raised her head, "High school girls always have their heads go crazy occasionally. Now it seems that I I dodged a bullet, phew, lucky!" After saying that, Julia made a "yeah" scissor hand gesture, and her expression gradually became relaxed.
"Julia!" Jenny and Mark both seemed to be irritated and shouted in unison.
Lu Ke nodded with relief, "At least, they are a good match. A good choice." After saying that, the team moved forward again. It was already Lu Ke and Julia's turn. The two were about to sign in, but Mark, who was unconvinced, took a step forward, stretched out his right hand and patted Julia on the shoulder.
