I don't know. Xiaopeng comes from rural Sichuan, with dark skin. Although the clothes on his body are very old, they are washed very clean. Xiaopeng followed his grandparents to attend primary school in Sichuan, with excellent academic performance. This year, Xiaopeng's parents, who work outside, wanted her to attend a better high school in a big city, so they brought her closer to them. With the hope of her father, Xiaopeng came to attend HC High School. Today is her first day of reporting. The homeroom teacher brought her to Class 1 of Grade 7. "Everyone, this is our new transfer student. His name is Xiaopeng. Xiaopeng, introduce yourself, please," said the teacher.

Ah, the shy Xiaopeng pushed to the platform. Xiaopeng pinched the corner of his clothes, shyly greeted everyone, "Hello, everyone. My name is Xiaopeng, from Sichuan." Before Xiaopeng could finish his introduction, the classmates in the class started laughing. Xiaopeng also smiled, thinking they were welcoming him with their accents. This made the classmates laugh even harder. Xiaopeng was placed at the back of the classroom because she arrived at school later than the others. She wasn't very familiar with her classmates, so she spent more time studying. Soon, Xiaopeng had her first monthly exam at school, and her efforts paid off.

When the results came out, she ranked first in the whole grade. The teacher praised Xiaopeng in the class and scolded those students who didn't study regularly. The local students, who already had prejudices against Xiaopeng for being from another place, became even more unsatisfied. During the last self-study session that afternoon, the local student Xiaojin brought three friends, Xiaoliu, Xiangang, and Xiaowu, to Xiaopeng's desk. "Hey, the outsider did great today, ranked first in the whole grade, making us all get scolded. Are you happy, Xiaojin?" Xiaopeng remained silent, focusing on her books.

Seeing Xiaopeng ignoring him, Xiaojin's anger grew. He suddenly threw the books on Xiaopeng's desk to the ground. "I asked you to study. How dare you pretend not to see us? Today, I'll show you what we can do." Xiaojin grabbed Xiaopeng by the hair, dragged her out of her seat, and threw her to the ground. "You, an outsider, also want to study in our school? Let's see how your tattered clothes help you study." Xiaojin kept hitting Xiaopeng, who didn't resist. The more he hit, the more excited Xiaojin became. Picking up something nearby, Xiaojin hit Xiaopeng forcefully. During this time, many students couldn't bear to watch and wanted to intervene, but they were stopped by Xiaoliu, Xiangang, and Xiaowu. Xiaojin turned around and said, "If you help Xiaopeng, we'll all fight together."

It was unclear how long the beating lasted. Someone quietly slipped out of the classroom, called the teacher, and when the teacher arrived and pulled Xiaojin away to check on Xiaopeng, Xiaopeng had already passed out. The teacher hurriedly took Xiaopeng to the hospital, but due to severe internal bleeding, Xiaopeng couldn't be saved. Xiaopeng's father fainted upon hearing this news in the hospital corridor. The school reported the incident to the police, but since the assailants were only 13 years old, Xiaojin's father used his connections and money to have the police lightly educate Xiaojin before letting him go home. Xiaopeng's father, upon waking up, couldn't bear the loss of his child.

Upon hearing from Xiaopeng's classmates that Xiaopeng was beaten by Xiaojin, he went to Xiaojin's house to seek justice for his son. However, he was beaten up by Xiaojin's father and thrown out of the house. Xiaojin's father said, "Accompany your dead outsider son. If you dare to report this, you'll face consequences." Xiaopeng's father, in agony, sat outside Xiaojin's house shouting, "You will face consequences, you bastards." Later, Xiaopeng's father disappeared. Xiaopeng's mother reported this to the police, but after two days, the police found her body in the river. Everyone said she couldn't bear the loss. Xiaopeng's father then disappeared as well. Xiaopeng's family of three, who were once happy, suddenly disappeared. After Xiaojin was released from the police station, he restrained himself because of what happened to Xiaopeng.

However.

Not long after, he gradually forgot about Xiaopeng's matter, and reverted to his old ways. Just one month after Xiaopeng's death, Xiaojin's father was in a hotel engaging in a passionate activity with a glamorous woman. Suddenly, he felt as if someone was staring at him from behind. The woman beneath him looked in terror towards the foot of the bed, completely petrified. Xiaojing's father followed the woman's gaze and saw Xiaopeng's family of three standing at the foot of the bed, glaring at him ferociously. Xiaojin's father panicked, let out a scream, and tried to open the door but couldn't manage to do so.

He watched as Xiaopeng's family approached him, paralyzed with fear. Xiaopeng's father stood in front of him and said, "You looked down on us outsiders. Now you fear causing harm to my family of three. I will make you wish you were dead." With that, he proceeded to break all of Xiaojin's father's limbs. Xiaojin's father screamed in agony, and Xiaopeng's father took out a pair of scissors. Slowly, he cut open Xiaojin's father's neck, as Xiaojin's father watched in horror as he was disemboweled, screaming in pain. The entire hotel remained oblivious to his cries, even the woman on the bed had already passed out.

Xiaopeng's father cut open Xiaojin's father's stomach, and Xiaopeng's family of three gathered around, greedily feasting on Xiaojin's father's insides. Xiaojin's father was now silent, only able to watch as his organs were removed one by one, until finally his heart was devoured by Xiaopeng's father. "Next, it's your turn for revenge. My mother and I will be waiting downstairs for you," said Xiaopeng's father with a loving gaze, as he touched the child's head with blood-stained hands. "I will come find you soon," he added before Xiaopeng's family of three disappeared on the spot. At that moment, Xiaojin happened to be drunk in a bar, vomiting on the side of the road.

He was in a daze, and then he felt a pat on his back. He turned around to see Xiaopeng rolling away. "You outsider, do you deserve a beating? You didn't learn your lesson last time," Xiaojin said as he punched Xiaopeng's face, causing Xiaopeng's head to roll off his neck. Xiaojin remembered that he was the one who had killed Xiaopeng not long ago. Terrified, Xiaojin lay on the ground as Xiaopeng's headless body slowly approached him. Xiaojin crawled backward until he was against the wall, with no space left to move. Xiaopeng picked up his own head and placed it back on his neck, saying menacingly, "Today, you will suffer the consequences."

After speaking, Xiaopeng squatted in front of Xiaojin. By now, Xiaojin was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder and bowels. Xiaopeng took out a knife, saying, "Today, I will punish you. I won't let you die so easily. You looked down on us outsiders, so be it. I will start by gouging out your eyes." Xiaopeng inserted the knife into Xiaojin's eye socket, and Xiaojin could hear the sound of his eyeball bursting. Xiaopeng forcefully plucked out Xiaojin's eyes, put them in his mouth, slowly chewed the white fluid, which dribbled out of the corners of his mouth. Xiaojin passed out from the pain. Xiaopeng proceeded to cut off Xiaojin's fingers one by one, placing them in his mouth to eat. Xiaojin was intermittently waking up from the pain, only to faint again. Eventually, Xiaojin stopped moving, as Xiaopeng dismembered him until only a pile of bones remained, tinged with shreds of red meat. As someone approached, Xiaopeng slowly disappeared into thin air.

One day, a piece of news broke, causing a stir in the world. Rumors spread that a cannibal tribe was on the loose, causing widespread panic. Only a few students and teachers who knew the truth suspected that Xiaopeng's family of three had returned for revenge. It serves as a reminder not to look down on anyone, as everyone is equal in this world. Otherwise, even if one doesn't face consequences during their lifetime, punishment may still come in unexpected ways.
