Volume 1 The Lonely Shadow of the Cold River Chapter 34 The Municipal Library

From the apartment, walk 1838 steps to reach the Hanjiang Municipal Library, during which you have to make three turns and cross two crosswalks, one of which has a street light that always breaks. There are a total of 57 stores on both sides of the street, including 5 breakfast shops, 3 Western restaurants, 1+1 McDonald's + KFC, 1 Pizza Hut, 31 clothing stores, 2 pharmacies, 1 gold store, 7 weight loss centers and 3 shops that Ji Han doesn't know what business to do.

Ji Han is not very interested in these three shops, he likes the green sign shop in the two pharmacies, every time he passes by, he will stop for a short time, and take a deep breath of the smell of the potion from inside, this smell of the potion reminds him of the Buddha, there is always such a smell on the body of the Buddha. The taste of the other house is really not very good, there is a chubby woman in it, as if she has been boiled with spices, and the smell that comes out can make Ji Han speed up his pace every time he passes by.

This world is very strange, he doesn't know how a person can go to all the stores, he once reasoned seriously, first go to breakfast, then go to the clothing store, by the way, go to the gold store to buy some jewelry to match clothes, and then go to eat Western food, if you eat too much, you have to go to the weight loss center, and then go to McDonald's and KFC One or both, if you eat too much, you can go to the pharmacy to buy it, Ji Han once ate it, that time it was Xiao Li who bought the medicine for herself, and laughed at herself for eating too much. Ji Han's stomach is not uncomfortable now, he thinks that he will go back and eat more, so that his stomach will be more uncomfortable, so that he can take medicine, maybe Xiao Li will come to himself after buying medicine. As for the 3 stores, Ji Han didn't know how to weave them into this itinerary, and there were many things he didn't understand, so he told Song Daming that he wanted to read books, and the Buddha once told him that there is all the knowledge in the book, and knowledge is the key to unlocking the unknown, and Ji Han is now lacking this key.

When Ji Han said what he thought, Song Daming agreed without even thinking about it. His mind is now on the company's affairs, to be precise, his mind is now on Gongxue. Ji Han's salary for a year has not been spent much, and it is all stored here in Song Daming, with 10,000 yuan. In addition, the 200,000 given by Gongxue last time, excluding the 100,000 given to Li Baoxia, and the 10,000 crossed out in Pitou City, there are 90,000 left, and this is another 100,000.

"That's enough for you to stop working for two years!" Song Daming said to Ji Han.

In addition, Song Daming rented a small apartment for Ji Han near the Hanjiang Municipal Library, which is close to the company, and he can often go to see Ji Han. Ji Han still doesn't use a mobile phone, the mobile phone Xiao Li gave him has already been lost in Pitou City, Song Daming put the watch on Ji Han's wrist to make it easier for Ji Han to see the time. Then he repeatedly advised: "People are on the table, don't give it to others." ”

After Song Daming handed the library card and library card to Ji Han, he hurried to the company, he slowly fell in love with this job, this job is like a lamp, exuding colorful colors, guiding him. Through this lamp, maybe his future life will also be illuminated colorfully.

Crossing the road in the middle of a small square is the main entrance of the Hanjiang City Library. The security guard sat lazily at the door of the hall, intentionally or unintentionally looking at the people passing by in the small square outside, each of them was wearing a pair of satisfactory shoes, or hurried, or slow, there were also some staggering steps, the security guard looked at his shoes, a pair of army green shoes.

"It's so silly, even a gray pair will look better than this. The security guard didn't like the shoes, and he tried to put his feet under the chair, as if trying to hide the unsightly color.

Life is like this, some people care about their shoes, some people care about their brains. Ji Han cares more about his brain, the trip to Meishan made him feel that something was missing in his mind, there are a lot of questions piled up in his brain now, and he needs some keys to open these questions.

Hanjiang Municipal Library is located in the downtown area, the door is not big, the outer wall is covered with ivy, and a small building is located in the middle of the city, which is quite quiet. Compared with the comprehensive library, it is indeed smaller, but because it does not undertake other functions such as exhibition halls and lecture halls, it is really not small in terms of the number of books in the collection.

Ji Han spent a whole day, looking at the books on the shelves from the first floor to the fourth floor repeatedly, and each bookshelf would be walked up once or twice, but after a whole day, Ji Han didn't decide what books he wanted to read.

He didn't know what kind of problem he was trying to solve, he just needed to put something in his head.

The next day, Ji Han spent another morning inspecting the entire library. When it was close to noon, a little girl with a ponytail jumped over, she looked at Ji Han strangely and asked in a low voice:

"Uncle, can't you find the book you're looking for?"

"Hmm. Ji Han nodded, "I don't know what books to read, I read very few books." ”

The little girl grimaced, and then said to Ji Han:

"Uncle, are you a Capricorn, do you have selective difficulties, and uncle, don't you have to go to work? You walked around here all day yesterday, I don't think you came to read a book, but to visit the vegetable market. ”

Ji Han, who asked this series of questions, looked confused, he stood in place, looked at the little girl, and then smiled stupidly.

"Oh......." The little girl was interested, this person didn't look very bright.

"Uncle, what kind of books do you like, I can recommend them for you, although I am young, I am a nail household here, and I should be hired as a child labor administrator by the library. The little girl stroked her ponytail with pride.

"I feel like my brain is a bit empty, and there are other things I can't figure out, so I'm here to find out. Ji Han looked blankly at the big bookshelves full of books, and then at the little girl.

The little girl in front of her was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a ponytail and a champion sweatshirt, she looked around Ji Han twice, and she didn't mean to be afraid of strangers at all.

"Yes, I have the consciousness of reading at a young age, and I should read more if my head is empty. The little girl replied emphatically.

Ji Han scratched his head with his left hand, smiled shyly, and replied, "I haven't seen so many books before, if you can recommend a few for me, thank you so much." ”

The little girl suddenly froze, she saw the watch on Ji Han's left wrist, her eyes widened and she said:

"Uncle, you can!" she quietly leaned over to Ji Han's ear and asked, "Are you rich?" and then pointed to her wrist and clicked a few times.

"More than 1 million watches, you shouldn't be a rich second generation, right?" After speaking, he shook his head again, "No, I haven't seen the rich second generation go to the library to read books, and besides, the clothes on your body are also a little shabby, and they add up to less than 100 yuan!"

Seeing that others were judging him, Ji Han replied a little embarrassed: "I'm not a rich second generation, the watch was given to me by someone else." ”

"Did you save the galaxy?" the little girl stared at Ji Han with wide eyes.

"Milky Way?" What is the Milky Way, Ji Han was confused.

Seeing that Ji Han was at a loss again, the little girl laughed stupidly, and the laughter alarmed the librarian.

The administrator was a chubby middle-aged aunt, and she shouted impatiently, "The library is not allowed to make loud noises, don't you know the rules? ”

This one was much louder than the little girl's laughter, and the people who were quietly reading the book looked at it in unison.

The little girl made a grimace, took Ji Han's hand and walked out, "Only state officials are allowed to set fires here, not suitable for the people to light lamps!"

Ji Han was inexplicably pulled out of the library, standing in the small square at the entrance of the library, the little girl looked at Ji Han again and said: "Hello, my name is Mei Lin, 14 years old, the legendary beautiful girl in the universe in the second year of junior high school. ”

"Uh-huh....." After thinking about it, the little girl said again, "I can help you find a book to read, but you have to invite me to eat Pizza Hut, we trade fairly, is that okay?"

Hearing that the little girl was willing to help him find a book, Ji Han felt happy in his heart, and he agreed without thinking.

"My name is Ji Han, you help me find a book to read, I invite you to eat Pizza Hut, fair trade. ”

"Deal!"

"Deal!"

"Yay!" Merlin jumped up and spun in the air, then looked at Ji Han beautifully.

"How much money do you have, let's make it up, after lunch, I'll take you to read a book!"

Ji Han reached out and took out the wallet in his pocket, which contained a brand new pile of RMB in addition to Ji Han's ID card. This money was just given to Ji Han by Song Daming yesterday, Ji Han hasn't spent it yet, and the food in the refrigerator is enough for Ji Han to eat for several days, so he can't use the money.

"Tsk, tsk, uncle. Come on and I'll do it!"

Merlin laboriously clicked, then counted again.

"3,000 yuan rich man, I want to rob you. As she spoke, Mei Lin also took out a 100 sheet from her pocket and put it in Ji Han's wallet.

"Now we have 3,100 yuan together, and in the next 20 days, this money will be our common meal fund, you have to swear that you can't run away with the money, you know?"

"Well, no problem!" Ji Han agreed, money didn't mean much to him.

"Let's go, my partner, I'll take you to something delicious. Mei Lin happily pulled Ji Han into Pizza Hut.

Mei Lin had a very happy meal, a cup of milk tea, two pieces of cake, and ordered a lot of her favorite snacks. Ji Han also ate very happily, although he didn't understand a lot of what Mei Lin said, but he thought Mei Lin was very cute.

After eating, they went to the library again, Mei Lin introduced Ji Han to the classification of the entire library's collection, the first floor is mainly newspapers and social science books, the second floor is mainly children's books and popular books, and the third floor is Mei Lin's favorite place, and it is also the floor with the largest collection of books in the entire library, mainly literary books, and there are also several bookshelves that are medical and economic books.

"You sit here and wait for me, and I'll go find you a book. Mei Lin settled Ji Han, and then ran happily to the bookshelf with her calves. In the neighborhood behind the library, Merlin's father was a bank manager and her mother was a jewelry appraiser in a luxury store. Mei Lin has been in this library since she was a child, whether on holidays or weekends, as long as she is free, she will soak in the library and read all kinds of books, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the nail household of this library.

At a young age, Mei Lin has already read hundreds of books, whether it is history, literature, romance, martial arts or science fiction, opening the book is beneficial!

"Come, give you this book, and if you don't like it, I'll find it for you again. Mei Lin handed a copy of Wang Xiaobo's "Wanshou Temple" to Ji Han. I continued to watch "Thorn Bird" that I didn't finish watching.

The cover of this book is orange and yellow, and a person is in the center of the cover, with a sentence written on the top of his head: "Everything is becoming more and more incomprehensible, and my story has another beginning!"
