Chapter 21: The reunion of old friends
The next day, Chen Yan recalled the lessons of yesterday. I contacted the ghost gentleman and asked him to bring him a book that was interesting to read.
The ghost gentleman was very stunned by Chen Yan's request at first, but then smiled and said: "Dear Chen, do you really make me more and more curious about the books I have here the complete Harry Potter works, enough for you to read for a long time." ”
"I've seen it. Chen Yan said.
The ghost gentleman recommended a few more copies, but Chen Yan rejected them one by one.
In the end, the ghost gentleman had a headache: "Chen, what type of books do you like, maybe I can recommend a few to you." ”
"Philosophy. Chen Yan said without thinking about it.
"Philosophy...... Pregnant. I have here a book of Pure Rational Criticism, a unique copy of the 1852 edition, which may be a good choice for you. The ghost gentleman added: "Its author is the German philosopher Immanuel Kant. ”
Kant
Chen Yan nodded: "Cheng, when the time comes, you can ask someone to send the book to the guardhouse." ”
The ghost gentleman said: "But this book is in German, or you give me a few hours, and I will ask a special translation team to retranslate it for you."
"No need. Chen Yan's eyes flashed with a silver line: "I can understand." ”
......
The next day's presentation became much more casual.
He no longer stood on the sentry stand like a javelin, but moved a wicker chair and sat in the doorway with a large thorn. Just like the security guard at the gate of the school in the hot summer, while crossing Erlang's legs, he looked at the books in his hand intently.
To be honest, his appearance stunned many people.
Especially when someone entered the island, he didn't raise his head, but just waved his hand and let them in, and this consternation rose to the climax.
The captain with a headache came to the 221 goal again.
He laughed and said, "The appearance of adults reading is really good-looking, it's just ...... There's always something wrong with reading a book outside. There is an air conditioner inside, which is more comfortable with the air conditioner on. ”
Chen Yan didn't raise his head and said, "Get up and waste time." ”
Captain: "......"
He squeezed out a smile: "Why don't I give you a video phone"
Chen Yan raised his head and looked at him with great displeasure: "I can handle things here, what are you worried about?"
The captain shuddered, then sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Don't tell your lordship that some high-level officials on the island have received negative information from 221 and want me to rectify it. As for me, people are light-hearted, and for the sake of the organization's big things, I have to come over and grieve the adults. ”
"Understood. Chen Yan nodded, and immediately made a call.
"Hey. Mingcheng's voice came from the other end.
"Is the place clear?" he asked.
"Even though the firewall here is very advanced, it still can't stop me. Mingcheng laughed.
Chen Yan nodded: "Hack 221's camera and intercept all information about 221." ”
"Understand, where is 221 not the gate of the island area, I damn it, you are working as a security guard in your clothes" Mingcheng's voice was very strange.
"The mission needs it. Chen Yan said.
"Hahaha. This is Mingcheng's answer.
Chen Yan: "......"
He hung up the phone and looked at the captain: "The matter is settled." ”
The captain was in a cold sweat, smiled at Chen Yan, and hurriedly left.
Chen Yan ignored him and continued to look down at the book.
I don't know how long later, a curious voice reached his ears.
"What are you looking at?"
Chen Yan sounded familiar, and said lazily: "Van Rola Mei Beko: The Preface to the Great Revolution." ”
The man: ""
He pointed inside: "Can I go in?"
Chen Yan glanced at him: "No." ”
The person who came laughed: "Sure enough, it's you, Chen Yan, Chen Yan, why did you come here?"
The person who came was Yan Tianming, in addition to him, there was also a middle-aged man, this person had dense nasolabial lines on both sides of the bridge of his nose, and his eyes were as sharp as eagle hooks. The appearance is five points of imagination with Yan Tianming.
"To introduce, he is my father and the current head of the Yan family. Yan Tianming turned around: "Dad, he is what I told you." ”
Chen Yan raised his head and stretched out his hand to Father Yan very sincerely: "Long admiration." ”
Father Yan said: "You know my name"
Chen Yan: "......"
He withdrew his hand again and went back to reading.
Yan Tianming: "......"
Father Yan: "......"
Yan Tianming said curiously: "Hey, what about you, why did you come here." ”
"I should ask you that. Chen Yan glanced at him: "It's really haunting to see you wherever you go." ”
Yan Tianming shouted: "If it weren't for the warm invitation of an important business partner of the Yan family, I wouldn't be uncommon." ”
The Yan family is in the customs business, and most of its partners are foreign tycoons.
Chen Yan closed the book, stretched, and said with a smile: "It's really not the right time to come." ”
In this year's Zero Trade Fair, there are seven stars and meteorites playing with each other. If the Heavenly Palace Key is born, I am afraid that the battle between the two families will be white-hot, and at that time, no matter how strong the forces participating in the auction are, they will all suffer from the disaster of the pond fish.
That's why Chen Yan said that it was not the right time for Yan Tianming to come.
Yan Tianming was a little unhappy: "It's good to be a stranger, what do you mean by this?"
After speaking, he leaned over mysteriously and whispered, "Lao Chen, there is good news, Lu Wan'er has succeeded." ”
It worked
Hearing the name Lu Wan'er, Chen Yan was a little dazed, and then smiled slightly.
It's really exciting to see what kind of towering tree the sapling will grow into.
Father Yan smiled gently: "After Ming'er went home, I found that his personality was much better. As a father, I want to thank you. ”
"Not necessarily. Chen Yan said: "I never gave him any advice, and his transformation was his own choice. ”
Hearing his words, Yan Tianming smiled.
But suddenly, Father Yan's voice faded.
"Chen Yan, if I'm not mistaken, now you have joined the Seven Stars, right?"
