Chapter 3242 The first battle is the decisive battle

The stadium's loudspeaker announced the names of Little Red Horse Academy and the First Affiliated Primary School of Pujiang University.

The two teams walked to the competition field, where the tug-of-war rope had already been set up, with the red ribbon hanging straight in the middle.

Qin Jianguo quickly arranged the positions: "Xu Jun will bring up the rear, Xiao Bai will be second to last, Shi Baobao, Xiao Du, and Wan Xiaohu will be in the middle, Xiao Zhou will be slightly in front of the middle, Du Du will be second, and Liu Liu, you..."

He paused for a moment and then said, "You stand in the front row. You don't need to rush forward. Just keep the pace in front of you."

Although Liuliu is a bit unreliable, she stood firmly in the first place last night, and didn't back down even when she fell into the sandpit. She showed a lot of responsibility in important matters, so Qin Jianguo chose to believe her.

Liuliu immediately puffed out her chest, glanced at Xiaobai sideways, and said excitedly, "Don't worry, Coach! A train runs fast because of its locomotive. With me as captain, I will definitely bring back victory. Otherwise, you can drag Xiaobai out and beat him up to vent your anger!"

Qin Jianguo laughed and said, "Stop being cheeky. Your position is crucial and your responsibilities are heavy. You must be steady and composed!"

Liu Liu patted her chest and said, "Coach, don't you know my nickname is 'Stay Calm'?!"

Qin Jianguo said, "I don't care what your nickname is, you have to set a good example."

But in my heart I think, your nickname "unreliable" has spread far and wide.

Liuliu said, "Coach, you haven't spent enough time with me, so you don't know me well. If you ask around more and learn more about my character, you'll know that I'm best at taking responsibility and setting a good example."

Qin Jianguo didn't want to banter with her anymore, so he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Keep it up, listen to my slogan, and remember the key points from last night."

Liuliu said, "Coach, wait a minute, I have something else to say."

Qin Jianguo said, "Tell me quickly, I'm listening."

Liu Liu pointed to the First Affiliated Primary School of Pujiang University across the street and said, "Coach, look at the people on the other side. They're all tall and strong, and there are several fat ones. Are they cheating and choosing older students to compete? You should go and investigate."

Qin Jianguo said, "Don't worry, they are all in the third grade or below. The organizing committee has done a good job of screening them. Don't worry about these things, just focus on the competition."

Liu Liu said, "Hey Coach, you don't know how dangerous the world is. You need to be more careful. You know Li Baibai from Little Red Horse, right? He often tells us that if you're not careful, you'll be doomed and cry your eyes out if you get betrayed. You should go and find out more about it."

Qin Jianguo asked, "How can I find out?"

Liu Liu sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll arrange it."

These words made Qin Jianguo feel quite ashamed, as if he was not as knowledgeable about human relationships as Liuliu.

Liuliu called Xiaowei over and explained this and that to her.

Xiao Weiwei accepted the task, tightened her pants, and set off to gather information.

Robin followed after her, carrying a stick, but was pulled back by Liu Liu, who called Xiwawa to keep an eye on the "flat-headed woman".

Robin yelled, "Let me go! Let me go! I want to become a spy!"

Liuliu hurriedly said, "Quickly, quickly, cover her mouth and drag her out. This child is just as clueless as her aunt."

Xiao Xiao and Xiao Youyou ran over, one on each side, and picked up Robin, who was whimpering. As they passed her aunt, they looked at her for help, but her aunt just waved her hand, indicating that they should take him away quickly so as not to delay the important matter.

Little Weiwei left quickly and returned quickly.

Liu Liu asked, "So, did you find out?"

Xiao Weiwei nodded seriously and said, "I found out, they are all third graders, not a single second grader, not a single first grader, not even a kindergartener, they are all third graders!"

Liuliu said, "They're all in third grade, so there can't be any first or second graders! What kind of correct nonsense are you spouting!"

She was finally relieved, no longer worried about being sabotaged by her opponents. Now it seemed she could only rely on her own strength.

Xiao Weiwei laughed and said, "Haha, Liuliu, you asked me to ask them what they ate for breakfast and how much they ate. I asked, and they said they had breakfast at a five-star hotel, and there was a lot of delicious food."

Liuliu asked, "This is the key point, please be more specific."

Xiao Weiwei was well-prepared. She opened her interview notebook and read aloud: "There are sausages, hams, bacon, roast duck, coconut bread, pork floss buns, coconut buns, tea eggs, boiled eggs, fried eggs, egg pancakes, watermelon, longan, cantaloupe, and dragon fruit."

Dudu peeked into Xiao Weiwei's interview notebook; the few sentences were composed of words, pinyin, symbols, and sketches. It's really inconvenient for a little reporter who doesn't know many characters.

Liu Liu exclaimed, "We've eaten so much! We're under a lot of pressure; we're probably going to lose this match."

Little Vivi asked, "Why?"

Liuliu said, "They eat a lot and are heavy, so they're hard to pull out."

Xiao Weiwei thought for a moment, then quickly took out a boiled egg from her bag and handed it to Liuliu: "Liuliu, eat this quickly, it will help you gain some weight."

Liuliu happily accepted it, peeled and ate it on the spot, and said, "That's great! Our chances of victory have increased! Xiaoweiwei, I'll give you two boiled eggs back later."

Xiao Weiwei said, "As long as we win the game, I don't want your eggs back. By the way, Liuliu, they even asked me why someone on our team was wearing sunglasses, whether he was involved in the mafia, and whether he was someone to mess with."

Liu Liu glanced back at the small boat and asked, "So what was your answer?"

Xiao Weiwei revealed a sly smile and said, "I told them that the boy wearing sunglasses is called Xiao Zhou, Zhou is the same as the aircraft carrier. He's not someone to mess with. If he loses a tug-of-war, he'll get angry, and when he's angry, he'll curse at people. And when he curses at people, he'll want to hit them. He's very fierce."

Liuliu asked, "Didn't you tell them Xiaozhou's catchphrase?"

Xiao Weiwei said, "I told them, if you're a brother, come and chop me up. I told them, and they said they'd never seen anyone so ruthless. They even asked what the red ribbons on our heads meant, and why we 'cherish life' in a tug-of-war?"

Dudu couldn't help but ask, "Little Weiwei, what was your answer?"

Xiao Weiwei said, "I told them that our coach said we must win this game, and whoever loses will lose their life. That's how ruthless he is."

Qin Jianguo couldn't help but say, "Am I really that ruthless?!"

Xiao Weiwei looked very serious, as if she had a plan in mind, and said, "Coach, you're going to be the villain here. Don't be upset. This is one of the Thirty-Six Stratagems. I understand."

Liuliu said, "This is what Xiaowei watched last night. She's putting what she learned into practice; she's really good at it!"

She then asked Xiao Weiwei, "Did they say anything else?"

Xiao Weiwei thought about it seriously, then shook her head. Xiao Du couldn't help but remind her, "Did they ask for Liu Liu's autograph and a photo?"

Xiao Weiwei said, "Oh~ they said they know Liuliu... They also wanted to take a photo with Xier, but they were too shy."

Liu Liu said, "Go tell them that if they let us win, I'll have Xi'er come and take a picture with them."

Little Vivi didn't move.

Liuliu said, "Go ahead."

Xiao Weiwei shook her head and said, "I'm not going, I'm afraid of getting beaten up."

Qin Jianguo looked down at Xiao Weiwei's head in surprise.

Liuliu was about to ramble on when Xiaobai in the back row got impatient and said, "Liuliu, stop giving us bad advice! If you're so capable, go talk to them yourself. You don't dare, but you send Xiaoweiwei instead. Xiaoweiwei going is like throwing a dog's bun to a dog—it's gone and she'll never come back. You even tricked Xiaoweiwei into eating your eggs; I'm ashamed of you. Okay, stop thinking about your crooked ideas and get ready; the competition is about to begin."

Liuliu responded, "I know, I know. I'm the team leader, how could I not know it's time to start? Why are you so impatient, young comrade? How will you build our country in the future?"

Xiao Bai rolled up his sleeves in anger and was about to come over when Liu Liu quickly sent Xiao Weiwei away. She grabbed the rope with both hands, her toes touching the white line at the edge of the field, and made a face as if she was ready to die for the tug-of-war cause.

The team members from the First Affiliated Primary School of Pujiang University also took their positions. The tall boy stood at the end of the line, glanced disdainfully at the Little Red Horse team, and said to his teammates, "This team is all little ones, we'll win easily!"

A teammate said, "They're an all-star team. I know the chubby girl at the front, her name is Liuliu. I also know the others behind her. Should we give them some face?"

Some people say, "Then let's make sure they don't lose so badly."

The referee walked over, checked the positions of both sides, and raised his whistle: "On your marks—get set!"

Instantly, the tug-of-war field erupted in cheers.

The little red horse team held their breath, gripped the ropes tightly with both hands until their knuckles turned white, leaned their bodies slightly backward, and bent their knees into a lunge position.

"Beep——"

As soon as the whistle blew, Qin Jianguo shouted his slogan: "One! Pull! One! Pull!"

"One, two! Pull! One, two! Pull!"

The team members strained together in unison, leaning back until their bodies were almost parallel to the ground.

Liu Liu's face turned bright red as she bit her lip, pulling back with both hands while keeping her eyes fixed on the red ribbon in the middle of the rope.

The red ribbon is slowly moving towards the little red horse!

The team from the First Affiliated School of Pujiang University did not expect the little red horse to be so strong. They were careless and panicked, and their rhythm began to break down.

The tall boy shouted anxiously, "Push harder! Don't let them pull you over!"

After his reminder, everyone became extremely vigilant and dared not underestimate the situation again.

They almost slid to the edge of a cliff before stopping their slide, their feet seemingly rooted to the spot, frozen in place.

The two sides reached a stalemate.

With victory within reach, the Little Red Horse team was in high spirits, eager to finish the job in one fell swoop.

However, the First Affiliated Primary School of Pujiang University is no pushover. They are a key primary school in Pujiang with a large student body and many candidates to choose from, each of whom looks bigger than Little Red Horse.

They are seeded players, and their minimum goal before the tournament was to reach the finals! They absolutely cannot lose in the first round, so this game is crucial.

Little Red Horse was ultimately at a disadvantage in terms of strength. After a stalemate of more than ten seconds, it began to be gradually pulled towards the First Affiliated Primary School, little by little, half a step at a time...

The First Affiliated Primary School gradually accumulated small advantages and managed to reverse the decline, with the red ribbon returning to the center line.

The team members from the First Affiliated Primary School were greatly encouraged, and the cheers from the surrounding area became even more enthusiastic.
