Chapter 3: Let's Make a Bet

It seems that there are quite a few talented individuals among the audience

"Where, where. His girlfriend is called Gao Lan, right?" Wu Yingda said, "My acrostic poem is as follows:"

"Some reference books are required for class; once used, they become useless, so it's not worth spending money on them. After reading, just pass them on to the lower grades next time." Yang Zhan took out a cigarette and lit it, then waved goodbye to Zhang Peng, saying, "My name is Yang Zhan. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me. Don't buy anything from door-to-door salespeople these days. They want eighty for a radio, and you might think that's cheap, but it sells for twenty on the school's commercial street. The person selling CDs claims they are adult film discs, but when you open them, they are just AUTOCAD, and not even the latest version." These days, don't buy anything from door-to-door salespeople. They want eighty for a radio, and you might think that's cheap, but it sells for twenty on the school's commercial street. The person selling CDs claims they are adult film discs, but when you open them, they are just AUTOCAD, and not even the latest version."

When Yang Zhan threw the keys to Zhang Peng, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!"

After more than ten attempts

After a moment of silence, the host said, "Please, our director, switch us to the next enthusiastic audience member."

"Why not?" Wu Yingda said proudly, "Isn't it fun?"

Wu Yingda quickly dialed the hotline of another station, this time for a legal program. However, it was currently commercial time, promoting a brand of shampoo.

No

The host remained silent for a long time before saying: "Then cut one off and apply some iodine." After saying this, the host continued, "You can hang up now, listener; next is our legal program 'Everyone Speaks.'"

Hearing his response, Zhang Peng couldn't help but doubt whether this guy had ever visited a pornographic website. At that moment, Zhang Peng was still unaware that he had misjudged the situation. Noticing a notebook labeled 'hetushucomcom' lying on the table beside him, he asked, "Why are you fiddling with a radio instead of playing with your notebook?"

Zhang Peng lay down on the bed and said, "What’s so fun about a radio?" Wu Yingda replied, "You can play by calling the hotline."

The student dormitory, known as Building Eight, where freshmen from the materials department reside, is an old structure from the 1940s and 1950s, predating many of the ancient trees on campus. Each room was originally crammed with eight livestock, and a two-tier wooden rack served as a luggage cabinet. Excluding the central desk, the personal activity space per person is less than one square meter. The bunk beds are exceedingly small; if one were to bring a female companion back, the two would likely have to sleep stacked on top of each other all night. For someone over 1.8 meters tall, extending their legs would mean their stinky feet would be pressing against the forehead of the person in the other bed, which is said to easily lead to the transmission of athlete's foot, resulting in dandruff resembling snowflakes on New Year's Eve. The most miserable aspect is that the entire dormitory building has double-layer wooden floors, which creak and groan when walked upon, and at night, mice come out to forage. With the sound of mice beneath the floorboards and above the ceiling, one could easily feel as if they were sleeping in a mouse nest rather than in the quaint dormitory of a prestigious university.

The small JJ has rotted

The host in the radio said: "Hello, this listener, you are now dialing the free hotline. May I ask, are you also a user of XX brand shampoo?"

What happened again

This guy is quite nice. Zhang Peng had a good impression of this bald man. Half an hour ago, Yang Zhan had helped Zhang Peng complete the Golden Dragon Card for dining in the cafeteria. However, when it came time to eat, Yang Zhan only used his own card to swipe. Even when giving him books, he always helped carry them to the door before handing them over.

I am branching out with a small JJ, is it useful to persist with it

Yang Zhan's tall and robust figure quickly disappeared into the pale gray night sky, with the bright sheen of his bald head seemingly entwined with the smoke of a cigarette.

Come on, you must be joking

The host said, "I f*** your mother!"

Zhang Peng said with great admiration: "Interesting"

Love to go to the red-light district

I have already cut off little JJ

The host said yes. Wu Yingda then said, "Let me give it a try."

Since there are no further questions, we will move on to the next audience member

"What is all this nonsense for?" Yang Zhan waved his hand, but when he received the room keys handed over by the two bald men, he was momentarily taken aback. "Building 14?"

Hello everyone, this is the program 'Everyone Speaks.' The host said, 'Listener, what issue would you like to address?'

With a "Hello," at that moment, the host connected the call from Wu Yingda, "I didn't expect such enthusiastic viewers to call in so soon"

Zhang Peng did not expect that after getting into a fight, not only would he not face any punishment, but he would also encounter such good fortune. Truly, misfortune may be a blessing in disguise. "Here, take this," as Zhang Peng was reflecting on this, Yang Zhan had already brought him to the location. He did not enter the house, but simply tossed a bag of items he was holding to him.

Wu Yingda said, "Yes, I have recently forked."

As Zhang Peng walked into the dormitory, he felt a bit of longing for another unfortunate soul who had struck it lucky. It is known that in university, a dormitory typically accommodates four people for four years. Especially in Building 14, where each room houses only two individuals, encountering a particularly boring roommate could indeed lead to four years of utter frustration. The current occupant, a fellow named Wu Yingda, appeared to be quite disappointing to Zhang Peng. The boy on the upper bunk, adjusting his glasses, looked like a well-behaved and overly pedantic good student.

From this moment on, Zhang Peng felt that this bald man had already become his friend

... ...

After adjusting his glasses, Wu Yingda said, "Goodness, this dormitory looks so impressive. Don't even mention the internet; they haven't even activated the cable TV. After asking the dormitory supervisor downstairs, I found out that all of these require a student ID for registration before they can be activated. The only thing that is operational is the dormitory phone. I had nothing to do, so I bought a radio to play with.

Wu Yingda said: "Actually, it's nothing much; it would be more entertaining to make the host curse."

Your friend is quite lucky. The two bald men chuckled and said, "This year, the department is expanding its enrollment, and there aren't enough dormitories. Originally, there were three extra spots, and it was agreed that we would share a mixed dormitory with the three extra students from the Metallurgy Department. Unexpectedly, the Metallurgy Department recruited three special talent students, and the department head, Old Qiu, had no choice but to allocate a graduate dormitory as a backup. You know as well as I do that there are three to four hundred new students in the Materials Department, and every year, a few of them do not report for various reasons. If everyone shows up, we won't need that dormitory, but this year, everyone has come. One of the newly reported students has already gone ahead. You're the only one left."

To ensure 24 hours of electricity, even Yang Zhan, who can command the winds and rains in the materials department, had to pay the price of three packs of Furong Wang cigarettes to hire an expert in electrical appliances. He stealthily connected a wire from the streetlight in the dormitory corridor back to his room. Every time after the lights-out time, he had to cover the windows with bed sheets and duvet covers, making it look as if he were engaging in illicit relationships inside.

Thank you

Upon hearing Wu Yingda say this, Zhang Peng initially thought that Wu Yingda was the type of perverse young man who enjoyed calling midnight hotlines for emotional comfort. However, after the call connected, Zhang Peng realized that Wu Yingda was actually calling a hotline on the radio.

Yes, I just bought it, very cheap. The asking price was 100, and I managed to get it for 80

"If we are going to gamble, then let's gamble." Upon hearing Wu Yingda say this, Zhang Peng realized that while Dormitory 14 had everything, it lacked drinkable hot water; to get hot water, one had to go to the hot water room next to the cafeteria.

Zhang Peng looked at Wu Yingda, who asked seriously, "Isn't a poem where the first or last characters of each line combine to form a sentence called an acrostic poem?"

There is none.

Wu Yingda said, "Ah, just right, I have a problem to report"

Zhang Peng said: "Can you make the host curse?"

This is how senior students guide new students

What do you think of this poem, host

Why is there still organized crime at Zhongda? Is he the leader of the bald gang? He saw Yang Zhan knock on the table and said to the two thugs who were gnawing on their boxed meals, "Be quick, get a room." The two thugs, who looked like seasoned veterans, also had shiny bald heads.

Zhang Peng was taken aback and broke into a cold sweat, looking at Wu Yingda with eyes that resembled those of a beast, "Is this really acceptable?"

My name is Wu Yingda

The host was silent for a moment, "So have you cut it off now?" and the book.

I am trash

Two bald men raised their heads and said, "No way, boss, are we really closing up? Why did you bring two more people? Are they your friends?"

Zhang Peng only felt a heaviness in his hand, "What?"

Zhang Peng followed Yang Zhan like a younger brother, traversing most of the campus until they arrived in front of the New Qian Education Building

Then what is so difficult about it

Wu Yingda looked at Zhang Peng with disdain and said, "How about a bet? The loser will be responsible for boiling water for a week"

Wait a moment

Moreover, Zhang Peng saw Wu Yingda fiddling with a radio. Zhang Peng recalled Yang Zhan's words and couldn't help but ask, "Did you just buy this radio? How much did it cost?"

The host said: "It's okay, as long as you continue to use XX shampoo, split ends will ... ... "

Wu Yingda said, "Someone urged me to self-harm, urging me to cut off my little JJ"

Host: "The person who incited has not yet committed a crime. Once you cut him off, we can apprehend him. Are there any other questions?"

The Fourteenth Dormitory is quite different; the later the dormitory is built, the more modern it becomes. The Fourteenth Dormitory is the most recently constructed dormitory in the past few years. If the Eighth Dormitory can be likened to a budget hotel, then the Fourteenth Dormitory can be considered a five-star suite. Not only does each dormitory accommodate only two people, but it is also fully equipped with air conditioning, a television, and internet access. Additionally, it features a living room and a bathroom, and most importantly, it has electricity available 24 hours a day

At this moment, the radio of Wu Yingda was playing a heartfelt variety show. The host, with great emotion, said that they had received a letter from an enthusiastic reader. This enthusiastic reader mentioned that he had developed feelings for a girl but was too shy to express them, so he sought help from everyone to come up with an acrostic poem. By the way, his girlfriend's name is Gao Lan
