Walking out of Xia Zixuan's office and walking along a tree-lined path on campus, Ye Han had a strange look on his face.

Just a moment ago, something suddenly appeared in his mind, which should be part of the memory of the original owner of this body.

In his memory, he had a family in this world, with parents, siblings, and a very good friend named Ye Zhuang. Other than that, there were some weird things.

For Ye Han, the sudden extra memory made him feel very happy. After all, with the integration of these memories, he finally knew nothing about this world.

As soon as he walked out of the school gate, he heard someone calling him. Ye Han turned around and saw a young man about his own age emerging from under a big tree on the road to the right of the school gate.

The young man was half a head taller than Ye Han. He was fair and plump, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes. He had a simple and honest look. His eyes when he looked at Ye Han were full of surprise and concern.

"You...Ye...Ye Zhuang?" Seeing this young man, Ye Han suddenly had a lot of information about him in his mind, and a sense of intimacy arose spontaneously. He laughed, strode over, raised his fist and punched the young man in the chest, and said: "You kid, why haven't you gone home yet? What are you doing squatting here?"

In my memory, this young man who seemed honest and honest, but actually had the same moral character as him, was his classmate and best friend Ye Zhuang. Not only did this guy share the same surname as his classmate, but he was also a neighbor who had played together since childhood. The two were not real brothers, but their relationship was better than that of real brothers.

The two have been classmates since kindergarten, and they are still classmates in elementary and middle schools. They go to school together and go home together every day. In addition, they smoke together, drink together, pick up girls together, and get beaten together. Even their academic performance is the same.

"Waiting for you!" Ye Zhuang scratched his head, grinned, showing a row of white teeth, looked at Ye Han up and down for a few times, suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and sighed: "Brother, you have suffered!"

Ye Zhuang said: "When Teacher Xia called you to the office, he must have sprayed you bloody, right? Isn't this bitter?"

"It's nothing!" Ye Han said with a smile: "Teacher Xia just gave me some gentle persuasion, and then let me go."

"She's gentle? That's weird!" How could Ye Zhuang believe that?He curled his lips and said: "That tigress, you made her very angry today. She doesn't need a ruler to hit your palm lightly... Sigh, you'd better be more honest in front of her from now on! Let's go home and do homework together!"

The two brothers put their arms around each other and walked forward, talking and laughing.

In autumn, the days are short and the nights are long, and it gets dark early. In addition, school ends late, and Ye Han is kept by his class teacher Xia Zixuan for a while. Therefore, when the two of them walked out of the campus, the sky had darkened, and the street lights on both sides of the street gradually lit up, making the whole city bright.

The two of them were carrying their schoolbags and passing through a small alley a few hundred meters away on the west side of the school. Four or five black figures suddenly rushed out of the alley. The shadows were cursing and pushing and shoving, forcing Ye Han and Ye Zhuang to the depths of the alley.

Through a street lamp at dusk in the alley, one could clearly see that the dark figures turned out to be several students, who were about the same age as Ye Han. The students all carried schoolbags and were also wearing the uniforms of No. 1 Middle School. They looked arrogant, and one could tell at a glance that they were some campus gangsters.

Seeing these gangster students, Ye Han didn't react at all, but Ye Zhuang's face turned pale with fright. His eyes stayed on one of the students with slightly curly hair and half a cigarette in his mouth, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Bao... Brother Bao, you... what are you going to do?"

"What are you doing?" The student named Brother Bao shook his curly hair coolly, flicked the ashes of his cigarette, then pointed at Ye Han and the two of them, and sneered: "Old rules, protection money!

Ye Qiang said loudly: "We paid the protection fee last week!"

Brother Bao rolled his eyelids and said: "Last week was last week, and I have to pay it this week!"

"No."Ye Zhuang said with a sad face: "Didn't we always pay once a month in the past?"

Brother Bao spat on the ground and said: "Nima, times are changing, and we must also keep pace with the times!"

"Then... how much more do you have to pay?"Ye Zhuang has been dealing with these gangs of campus gangsters for more than a day or two. They know that each of these guys is more cruel than the last. If you don't pay the money honestly, you will be beaten. Before this, he and Ye Han were beaten more than once or twice.

Brother Bao stretched out a finger and said: "Ten yuan!"

"ah?Isn't it five yuan?It used to be five yuan!"Ye Zhuang screamed like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Although their family's economic conditions were much better than Ye Han's, their parents only gave them one or two yuan of pocket money every day. It was strange that he didn't feel bad if they took out ten yuan at once.

Brother Bao glared and said: "Damn it, what do you call it? If you call it again, your mouth will burst into tears!Don’t you know how much prices are rising now?Of course our protection fees will also increase!We, the gangsters, have to protect this today and that tomorrow. We are so busy every day that we don’t even have much time to study. Is it easy for you to think of us?Stop talking nonsense, you two, ten yuan each!"

Ye Zhuang glanced at Ye Han, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Bao, Ye Han's family is poor and he really can't afford that much money. How about we pay fifteen yuan together?"

"no!Brother Bao flatly refused and threatened viciously: "If you can't get it out, just steal it and rob it. I don't care what you do!"Anyway, if you don’t pay, I’ll see you every time I fight!"

Ye Zhuang sighed and put his hand into his pocket. He actually brought more than 20 yuan with him today. He originally planned to buy comic books to read tomorrow. It seems that he can't save it this time. He also knows that Ye Han has no money, so he has to pay for Ye Han's protection money, otherwise he will be beaten. Who said the two are good brothers? They can't just die without saving him, right?

After entering the alley, Ye Han watched with cold eyes. When he saw a few middle school students actually robbing houses and houses near the school, he couldn't help but feel angry and funny. When he saw Ye Zhuang was about to pay some "protection fee", he immediately stretched out his hand to stop them.

"Ye Han, you..." Ye Zhuang glanced at Ye Han, not understanding what he meant.

"Those little gangsters, what are you doing with them?Let's go!"Ye Han glanced at Brother Bao and others with disdain, pulled Ye Zhuang and turned around to leave.

"Fuck!This is outrageous!"Brother Bao was furious, flicked the cigarette butt in his hand, and winked at a young gangster beside him. The young gangster let out a strange scream, chased after Ye Han, and punched him in the back.

"Ye Han, be careful!"Ye Zhuang screamed in alarm and rushed forward, trying to block the gangster's fist for Ye Han. He was much stronger than Ye Han. In the past, every time the two of them were beaten after school, he used his body to protect Ye Han.

Ye Han sneered at the corner of his mouth, and with a little force on his hands, he pulled Ye Zhuang aside. When the little gangster rushed forward, he raised his leg and gave a beautiful side kick, kicking the little gangster far away. After the little gangster's body landed, he slid back a few meters away from the ground. He lay on the ground groaning and couldn't get up for a long time.

Just kidding, the chief disciple of the dignified "Immortal Medical Sect" once killed countless demons and powerful men in the tribulation period. Although his soul is now reborn in a weak student, he is far from the bravery he once was. But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and he still has the most basic self-protection ability. If you can't even deal with a little kid, then you might as well die!

"Holy shit..." Seeing that Ye Han was possessed by a superman, his combat power increased dramatically, and he actually kicked away the gangster who was usually very good at fighting. Ye Zhuang was startled, and looked at Ye Han in disbelief, his eyes almost falling to the ground.

Brother Bao and others roamed the campus of No. 1 Middle School, and no one dared to offend them. When they collected "protection fees" from Ye Han and Ye Zhuang in the past, both of them acted with trepidation. Unexpectedly, this time Ye Han seemed to have taken advantage of him. Not only did he refuse to pay the "protection fee", but he also dared to resist and beat people. Brother Bao and others immediately exploded when they saw this.
