For immune persistence stage (applicable to the 12-23 month age group): * Children who have been enrolled in this clinical trial at 12-23 months of age and have completed basic immunization for 12 months; According to the researcher's opinion, the subjects and their guardians are able to comply with the requirements of the clinical trial protocol. Exclusion Criteria: For primary immunization stage: * Have a history of severe allergic reactions that require medical intervention; Have a history of allergies to vaccines or vaccine ingredients (such as lactose, sodium chloride, tetanus toxoids, etc.), and other serious adverse reactions to vaccines; * Has contraindications for intramuscular injection such as thrombocytopenia, any coagulation dysfunction, or undergoing anticoagulant therapy; * Has severely abnormal labor (dystocia, instrumental delivery, excluding cesarean section), or history of asphyxia, neurological damage, in vitro fertilization or multiple pregnancy, pathological jaundice (only applicable to infants and young children aged 6-11 months); * Suffering from serious congenital malformations or chronic diseases that may interfere with the progress or completion of the study (including but not limited to Down's syndrome, thalassemia (the first degree relatives in the family are thalassemia or gene carriers of thalassemia), heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes, autoimmune diseases (repeated perianal abscesses), hereditary allergies, Guillain Barre syndrome, etc.); * Infectious diseases with clinical or serological evidence, such as tuberculosis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or HIV infected parents; * Any situation resulting in splenomegaly, splenectomy, or functional splenomegaly; * Has a history of convulsions, epilepsy, encephalopathy, and mental illness (including family history); * Within 3 days prior to the first dose of the vaccine, there was an acute illness or acute exacerbation of a chronic disease, or the use of antipyretic, analgesic, and anti allergic drugs (such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, aspirin, etc.); * Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency; Or receive systemic corticosteroid treatment (any medication route, ≥ 2mg/kg/day) for ≥ 14 days within 3 months prior to enrollment, such as prednisone, inhaled steroids budesonide, fluticasone, etc; Or being using other immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine, tacrolimus, etc. before enrollment; * Has given immunoglobulin and/or any blood products (except hepatitis B immunoglobulin) within 3 months before enrollment; * Plan to move before the end of the study visit or leave the local area for a long time during the scheduled study visit; * Plan to participate or be participating in any other drug clinical research; * According to the researcher's judgment, there are any other factors that are not suitable for the subjects to participate in the clinical trial. For booster immunization stage (applicable to the 6-11 month age group) and immune persistence stage (applicable to the 12-23 month age group): * Subjects in the experimental group aged 6-11 months received any meningococcal vaccine before blood serum collection at 18 months old after completing basic immunization; * Subjects in the 12-23 month age group were vaccinated with any meningococcal vaccine before completing blood collection at 12 month post-completion of primary immunization schedule; * After participating in this clinical trial, the subjects are known or suspected to have immunological deficiencies, including being treated with immunosuppressants (such as radiation therapy, chemotherapy, corticosteroids, anti metabolic drugs, cytotoxic drugs, etc.) and HIV infection; * Subjects in the experimental group aged 6-11 month old were given immunoglobulin and/or any blood products (except hepatitis B immunoglobulin) within 3 months before the booster immunization. * According to the researcher's judgment, there are any other factors that are not suitable for the subjects to participate in the clinical trial
