These Dangerous Girls Placed Me Into Jeopardy

Chapter 0: She said that she wanted to be friends with me

She had been calling me little transparent-kun all the while. I bet she didn’t even know my real name.

I should say that my formal contact with her started from this day. Not that I didn’t know her before. Her seat was adjacent to mine, and she was quite famous in school, so naturally some of her great deeds would find their way into my ears.

Li Nai was a celebrity known to every single soul in school. So did Lian Bing and Xue Qing. Yet they three were popular for different reasons. Lian Bing and Xue Qing were liked for their personal charm and temperament while Li Nai’s popularity lied in her great number of friends.

She seemed to be able to get along with everyone. I just couldn’t help but marvel at her ability of communication. Well, truth was, I admired her for that. My friends were too few while hers were too many to be counted.

It was said that she had over 300 friends, that was nearly one third of the students in school. And she could even get on well with her friends’ friends…even students from other schools were her friends. What a complicated network of friends, just like spider webs.

It must be a super power to be able to simultaneously talk with four or five students, to turn someone from white (unacquainted) to green (friendly) in just a few minutes conversation and to make new friends with deep impression left.

Probably that was why Li Nai could be the head of Class Two, Grade Two that was crowded with weirdos and freaks…and monsters.

However, we didn’t have any sort of contact as we two were poles apart in personality.

The reason Lianbing and I became friends was she actually was interested in my body, while Xueqing shared a similar personality with me and was also interested in my body. Lan Hua and Yu Hui just were confusingly obsessed with me, which we could put aside for now.

How Li Nai and I became friends was beyond imagination.

We were like two parallel lines that would never meet.

Would a short-tempered hare take the initiative to befriend a slowcoach?

Clearly not. This wasn’t something like that in the story The Race Between Hare and Tortoise. And there can’t be such a stupid hare.

Conclusion: I and Li Nai would never be friends.

However, that was the impermanence of life. What you deemed impossible would always happen. That was what I felt after what had happened between us.

So getting back to this morning on May 8th.

After being discharged from the hospital, I rode a lady’s bike on my way to school on Monday.

“What…?” With a violent tremble, I stopped the bike by the road. A flat tire was confirmed after my examination, not the issue of the chain as I had expected.

But it would have been better should it be the chain as I myself could fix it temporarily. A flat tire was beyond what I could do.

“This can’t be! Am I that heavy?”

This bike belonged to Bi Ran who usually would carry Ke Ling with her, while I usually walked to school. I only borrowed it because I was about to be late. And Bi Ran and Ke Ling left home earlier because it was their turns for duty.

I didn’t expect a flat tire.

“Oh, that’s too bad.” With nowhere to repair the bike, should I manually push it to school? That way I would surely be late.

I only borrowed the bike to avoid being late…and now this flat tire just rendered me right in the middle between my home and school, an embarrassing and annoying position.

So that left me no choice but to take a shortcut ‘there’…Honestly, the ghost murdering incident left a terrible impression on me and I didn’t really like taking that way. I just got the sinking feeling that something bad would happen every time I got through there.

Whatever! I’d better not be late for my first school day after getting out of the hospital.

I took out my phone and tapped an app with an all-black icon. There appeared on my screen the map of the whole city.

That red dot was me…and the blue circle nearest me was…the entrance to Black Street. Ah there it was! Not far.

The entrance to the street would change weekly, so it was really a matter of luck.

Turning my phone on the GPS mode, I pushed my bike and walked to the marked point without any delay.

Soon I found the place, a dead alley.

It was set that the entrance to Black Street would usually appear at places frequented by few.

Though invisible to the eye, one would experience some dizziness after getting through the marked point, which was the sign of entering Black Street.

However, the group of “Crowd Actors” before my eyes were the best proof that I was in Black Street.

Last time I was here I felt these Crowd Actors mysterious, now they looked quite ordinary. They lived on this street and were members of ‘troupes” who would usually appear in some common TV dramas but mostly they played the role of ‘passerby’ under certain special occasions.

They stayed in Black Street when off-duty for safety issue and to avoid being targeted by people with evil intentions.

That being said, I completely had no idea as to whether they were acting or not.

Their adept skills in acting was so amazing to the point of clouding the false with the genuine. All these members of “Crowd Actors” could be superstars if they got out.

Well…it was also possible that they would just portray themselves in movies or TV dramas.

“Hey, good morning, Freshman-kun. Are you on your way to school?”

“Morning! Yes, I’m a bit late, so I’m taking a shortcut here.”

The one talked to me was Uncle Zhang, owner of a flower shop who at the moment was moving a plotted flower to get sunshine.

Seeing that I was pushing my bike, Uncle Zhang massaged his waist and offered, “A flat tire? Let me fix it for you.”

“Can you?”

“Of course, I can ask a new tire from Lao Liu next door. You can get it after school.”

“Thanks!”

I then left after handing the bike to him and expressing my gratitude.

Like this, people in Black Street would greet me and even offer me help.

They only ignored me last time because they took me as “Intruder” now they began to accept me after confirming my identity.

Speaking of why I could get into Black Street…

“Oh my!!! I’m getting late! I’m late!”

Familiar voice. Familiar beginning. Just like Mr. White Rabbit who would always shouting ‘I’m getting late’, some hurried steps approached me from behind.

All passerby retreated in a hurry to avoid any contact with this girl, clearly aware of how annoying the girl was.

So did I.

Having imagined what would happen next, I immediately moved away to the side. Then she should be able to get past me safely. That was what I had hoped.

However…

Peng!

A collision!

But this was not like last collision when she aimed straight at me.

This time, she fell and rolled together with me on the ground.

Luckily, I hadn’t had breakfast, or I would have already thrown anything out after being hit by a human cannon.

“Ouch! That hurts!”

“What the hell are you doing?”

I was the one who was hurt, okay?

As if being drugged, she just knocked madly right into me.

This girl called Li Nai was certainly a weird creature with rules of action impossible to predict.

I had already stepped aside to avoid her yet she somehow still found the way to bump into me, with all her might. Did she deliberately do that?

“Crowd Actors” around turned on the “Ignoring” mode. Was it because they knew Li Nai was big trouble?

Ah! Was it the correct code of brotherhood?

“Ah! The little transparent-kun. What a coincidence!”

Li Nai exclaimed out of surprise like she had just found a new continent after getting up from my belly.

She definitely faked the surprise. Too exaggerated!

“Yes, it is so coincident that it looks like it’s well planned. Isn’t it, Li Nai-tongxue?”

I massaged my aching belly and looked in disdain at Li Nai who pretended to have knocked into me by accident and wore an annoyed look.

Seeing that I didn’t buy her terrible skill of acting, she resumed her old manners, patted the dirt off her butt and picked up the bread on the ground, saying, “Being knocked down by a beauty biting bread, and getting the chance to touch her breasts, quite an old beginning for GALGAME, isn’t it? Old as it is, it works! Hahaha…”

“Such plot is not commonly seen these days, so that was quite fresh for me…No. I mean why you still ran into me after I stepped aside?”

And I didn’t touch your breast, okay?!

Not getting a bit boon I deserved! How unlucky I was!

Upon hearing my condemn, Li Nai leaned backward exaggeratedly and exclaimed, “Hey…how could you blame it all on me? Definitely not a gentleman. I tried to avoid you, but you dodged in the same direction, so the unfortunate collision! Naturally, that couldn’t all be my fault.”

You shouldn’t have run over in the first place.

“Whatever! I’m dying with the pain. The wound on my belly just healed. Now I feel it split again…”

“Really? I’m so sorry…”

Li Nai immediately realized her mistake after my words and apologized sincerely after a few dry laughs, her head bowed in shame.

What else could I say with that apologetical look of yours? That was enough.

However, Li Nai, in less than three seconds, looked up, her eyes lit up, “Then let me lick the wound for you, which should help to heal it. And you’ll never feel the pain.”

With that, she stuck her tongue out and licked her lips, looking extremely obscene for a pretty young girl.

I cocked my brows and asked, “And the negative effect is to be a zombie?”

“Not really. Perhaps little transparent-kun is born with the antibody.”

“May I know the rate for that?”

“One in 250 million.”

“The same rate for a roller coaster crash! Go to hell, you idiot zombie!”

I immediately gave this zombie that was leaning to lick me a hard hit on the forehead.

Li Nai shouted in a sobbing voice, her hands over her forehead, “Ay…that’s cruel of you. Little transpatant-kun, how can you treat your friend like this?”

“Excuse me? I’m your friend? I bet you didn’t even remember my name.”

“Er…uh…wait a minute. I sure remember your name. Your name is…”

Hump! This damned girl…

Put aside the fact that I sat next to her, we had been classmates for over a year and I introduced myself quite in detail the day before, now she couldn’t even recall my name.

Li Nai crossed her arms before chest and was lost in quite a while of ponderation before she clapped her hands and said in delight, “You are…Cheng Jun, right? See, I remember.”

Hands on hips, she put on a complacent look which clearly read: Come on! Praise me for that. I’m awesome.

But wrong!

“It’s Jun Cheng, you idiot! And my family name?”

“Em…Han?”

“You deserve a second death!” I couldn’t help but knock hard on her head again.

I was usually a peaceful man who didn’t get angry often but somehow, I just couldn’t control my temper with her. It must be her fault.

“I tried. I am a Zombie and zombies don’t have great memories.”

“Now you blame your poor memory to the race you belong.”

“Forget it. We should really get going. We’re getting late!” said Li Nai with her cheerful look resumed and a bite on the bread as if nothing had happened.

Who was to blame for all the delay? Then again, she actually ate the bread she just picked up on the ground?

Noticing my gaze, Li Nai immediately got my unsaid words and answered with her thumb up, “It’s alright. Still clean when picked up in three seconds.”

“That is not true.”

“Are you afraid of the bacteria that may get to the bread? Don’t worry. The Zombie virus inside me will devour all bacteria.”

“So you actually take the zombie virus as your immune system?”

It never occurred to me that the zombie virus was that gentle.

It was that exhausting to talk with this girl.

“Don’t sigh in the morning, Junchen. Or your happiness may sneak away.”

“It is all because of you! Wait, you remember my name!”

So she was just playing dumb?!

Li Nai swallowed the bread in one bite, wiped off the crumbs at the corners of her mouth and said in a rather handsome way, “Of course. An Jun Cheng, am I right?”

“Oh…” I’d better leave it at that.

Hands behind her back, Li Nai turned to me and asked with a smile, “So, can you be my friend?”

“No, I refuse.”

Being refused again, Li Nai looked shocked and exclaimed in disbelief, “Why! Following the development of the story, aren’t you supposed to be enchanted by me and beg to be my friend?”

“I’m not some silly nympho girl! We are just partners with no private friendship.”

“That’s really a pity.”

I wouldn’t change my mind even with your pitiful look like a deserted puppy.

“Emm…I might think about it if you can remember my name.”

“No problem, Jun Cheng!”

Her smile was so bright like a sunflower that I dared not to look at.

I would never be bored with her around.

How bothering and lively she was.

By the way, we were late for school.
