No. 49 Cockroach Brother Where Are You From?

  No. 49 Cockroach Brother, where are you from?

  "Cockroach? Why is it a cockroach?"

  "I don't know, I think it's better if it's a bomb."

  Wang Jian turned his head to take a look at the natural second who was shivering on the basketball court twenty meters away from the classroom, then took another look at the girls in the class who were watching the boys kill cockroaches with deer heads and mouse eyes through the window, before throwing the cigarette in his hand to the ground.

  "I won't be able to sleep until this matter is cleared up."

  Dawei sighed: "This is someone messing with you, who did you offend?"

  Wang Jian stood up and took a deep breath: "I've offended many people, but this style, I really haven't seen it before."

  Soon, the boys in the class trampled to death or slapped to death those cockroaches that were running around everywhere. After that, Wang Jian sprayed a whole bottle of insecticide in the room. As a result, all the students in the class, plus three main subject teachers, were squatting on the small basketball court outside the classroom with wide eyes staring at each other.

  The girls were exchanging their terrifying experiences just now, while the boys were savoring and guessing what kind of god had done those cockroaches earlier. Although it was disgusting, it also allowed them to experience the thrill of being a hero.

  It was almost the third class in the afternoon when Wang Jian saw a large group of people walking over from afar, including school leaders at all levels and many foreigners.

  "Oh... it's all messed up now." Wang Jian self-deprecatingly said after getting up: "Brothers, let's pack up!"

  As soon as the order was given, those lazy boys who were basking in the sun suddenly sat down neatly on the ground, and the girls followed closely behind, sitting down steadily. Facing Wang Jian, they became quiet, as if everyone had turned into a vegetable.

  "Big sister..." Wang Jian walked over to Tian Ran's side: "Someone is coming, hurry up and perk up."

  "I'm really scared..." Tianran suddenly lifted her head and raised her red and swollen eyes: "I was so frightened just now."

  "Listen, it's all right now." Wang Jian patted her back gently and turned to Da Wei saying: "Great artist, it's up to you now."

  Dawei was stunned for a moment before nodding decisively and bowing to Wang Jian: "No problem."

  After finishing, he walked into the group of students and said in a very devout tone: "Close your eyes, feel the sunshine, rain, dusk, dawn, relax your muscles, let your body and mind be one with nature, take a deep breath, follow the rhythm of the spring breeze, carefully listen to the deepest longing in your heart..."

  He was just getting to the good part when the crowd of visitors had already walked over here, and just as the director was about to ask a question, Wang Jian raised his hand, made a silencing gesture, and with very deliberate and exaggerated movements, tiptoed out of the playground.

  As he walked, the group of visitors involuntarily turned their heads towards Wang Jian, just like sunflowers.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, our David is teaching students to communicate with nature, please don't disturb them, okay? If you have any questions, ask me."

  "What benefits does this method have for students?"

  A middle-aged woman with slightly dark skin asked the first question, and judging from her tone and accent, if I'm not mistaken, she should be a high-ranking person from Taiwan's Brotherhood School.

  "After a moment of contemplation, Wang Jian cleared his throat like a spokesperson: 'Perhaps many people think that students only need to study, and studying is the only component of their lives. But this is clearly a misconception - a vicious cycle. Every person living in this world needs to absorb different elements to enrich their life. There are many ways to do so, perhaps through a backpacking trip, or a luxurious breakfast, or watching a tear-jerking movie. However, our students don't have such conditions. The intense studying has already placed burdens on them that are inconsistent with their age. All we can do is let them communicate with nature on a warm afternoon, to ease their inner anxiety and pressure.'"

  Wang Jian finished speaking and nodded politely to everyone, pointing to the students who had already packed up on that side before they applauded, and said in a low voice: "Understood."

  "Does it need special training before doing so?"

  A translator next to a tall and sturdy white man asked this question. Wang Jian shook his head with a smile: "No need, anyone who loves life and is full of awe for life can do it. Of course, if there is professional training, that would be even better."

  In this way, Wang Jian answered the six questions fluently and satisfactorily, and the visiting group left the basketball court with satisfaction. The principal walked at the end, patted Wang Jian's shoulder hard: "Little boy, you did a good job. I'll find you later to settle the account."

  Wang Jian smiled awkwardly, shrugged his shoulders and said in a low voice: "This is also an unavoidable move..."

  After a while, the principal came over with the director of studies, Inagawa and that beauty spot Ame, a group of four people, sauntering along.

  After seeing Wang Jian, Principal laughed and said: "Teacher Wang, give me an explanation."

  Wang Jian let out a sigh and recounted the whole story from start to finish, finally pointing to the classroom and saying that medicine had been sprinkled inside, making it impossible for people to sit there.

  "Cockroach?" Zhang's eyebrows furrowed: "How could such a thing happen?"

  Inada River also shook his head: "A clumsy and poor farce."

  "I'm going to report to the police!" The principal was so angry, if it wasn't for Wang Jian's quick thinking, the school would have been finished today. If the board of directors still wants to allocate funds in the future, his name will be written upside down.

  "It's definitely useless to call the police for this kind of prank..." Wang Jian suddenly raised his head: "I'll investigate, I've always been especially fond of detective stories since I was a kid."

  "Are you okay? If not, report to the police, this is really too much. The principal asked with a hint of worry: "This is no longer an ordinary joke."

  "Hey... Don't you know the efficiency of our police uncles? By the time they figure it out, those cockroaches will be ruling the earth."

  Wang Jian's words made Ah Mei, who had been keeping a straight face all along, burst out laughing, but Inagawa only glanced at her and she immediately returned to her usual poker face.

  "Alright, I'll go try. If anyone else plays a prank like this, we'll call the police." Wang Jian turned his head to look at the students who were almost asleep: "Have the visitors left? The brothers are all about to fall asleep. If it weren't for giving you face, I would have just let them play on their own."

  "Alright, alright, they're all gone." The principal also couldn't do anything about Wang Jian, waving his hand: "Let those little monkeys go and play."

  "Alright, got it." Wang Jian turned his head and shouted loudly: "Brothers, school's out early today, be careful on your way home."

  Those annoying little monkeys suddenly made a loud noise and scattered all over the place. Some ran away with their heads down, while others quietly slipped away along the wall.

  "Don't forget your homework today, each of you write me a feasibility report on investigating the source of cockroaches."

  After he finished shouting, his expression suddenly changed, and the keys in his hand creaked as he clenched his fist, saying viciously: "If I don't catch that cockroach sender, my twenty years will be lived in vain."

  "Arrogant."

  "Shut up! Don't talk nonsense."

  "It's... teacher."

  However, Wang Jian didn't mind what Ah Mei said. He simply pulled out a dead cockroach wrapped in a plastic bag from his pocket: "I asked the security guard earlier and he said it was a man who delivered the stuff, probably over 20 years old with an innocent face. I think this guy is definitely not the mastermind."

  "How dare you be so sure?" Amy finally couldn't help but speak up and retorted to Wang Jian: "You don't even know the specific situation, yet you're making wild analyses."

  Wang Jian spread out his hands: "That's what reasoning says."

  "Let's monitor it." Dawei walked over from behind and took the cockroach from Wang Jian's hand: "The person who delivered the package must have met the mastermind at some corner around the school."

  "This is really troublesome." Wang Jian nodded and said with a pleased tone: "This time it's cockroaches, next time he might send over a bag of feces."

  "Don't say weird things..." Dawei looked at Wang Jian with a strange expression: "And now the temperature is not high, and it can raise cockroaches to such a large size. This clearly explains one problem. This thing is not wild."

  As soon as this was said, the four seats were shocked. Raising cockroaches is indeed a shocking and unconventional thing, and even those two Japanese people who eat everything are deeply disgusted with these smelly cockroaches.

  "Don't make such a disgusting face." Wang Jian took the cockroach and sniffed it: "The smell is not very obvious, it should be domesticated. Cockroaches are Chinese medicine, they can activate blood circulation, remove stasis, detoxify, diuretic and reduce swelling. Eating them often can help to detoxify and beautify the skin. Fried cockroaches taste normal, a bit worse than centipedes, but centipedes are rarely seen. And cockroaches are crispy, when I was young, I would often catch them with village kids as snacks."

  When Wang Jian said that, Amy almost vomited, even the principal was silent with a gloomy face. Everyone looked at Wang Jian with an eerie expression as he spoke eloquently about exploding cockroaches...

  "Because we were poor, at that time we were basically the natural enemies of wild animals." Wang Jian also found fault with others: "So forgive me..."

  After he finished, the principal and others took a long time to recover, but they couldn't help taking a step back, moving away from Wang Jian. Especially that Ah Mei, she retreated all the way to the back, not even wanting to look at Wang Jian.

  "So you're saying that these cockroaches are artificially bred?" The principal also thought this analysis was feasible, and after asking a question, she turned her head to ask the director: "Director Xu, where is the cockroach breeding farm on our side?"

  "I'll go check right now."

  "Let's go check the monitor now." The principal waved at Wang Jian and Dawei: "Follow me."

  Just as Wang Jian was about to leave, Inagawa quietly approached him from behind: "Teacher Wang, after these things are fried, they really don't have a bad smell?"

  "Of course... " Wang Jian thought for a moment: "But after deep-frying, the taste isn't bad."

  Then Inagawa walked away with a thoughtful expression...

  Dawei let out a loud cry and also went over to Wang Jian's side, pointing at Inagawa and saying: "This little Japanese won't be thinking of trying something, will he......"

  "Who knows..." Wang Jian sighed: "Anyway, I won't go eat there again."
