I saw Socrates clasp his hands together, make an ancient Shenzhou bow, and said: "Good day, beautiful scenery, talk to you, very comforting life, haven't asked for the name of Gao?"

Seeing him pretending, it was really funny, Gu Xiaoshi said to him with a smile: "The little surname is Gu, and the big name is Xiaoshi." ”

Socrates laughed, knowing that the other party was also joking with him, so he gently punched Gu Xiaoshi and said, "My name is Socrates Grisco Papadopodias, please take care of me when we meet for the first time." ”

What is the name of this, why is it so long? Gu Xiaoshi circled around his mouth a few times, feeling that it was quite inconvenient, so he said: "The name is too long, I can't remember it, or I will call you Asu?"

Socrates was drinking Coke, and he squirted with a "poof", without this, how could there be such a thing as changing people's names when they met? Shaking his head and saying: "No, no, that's the name of your Shenzhou people, we don't pay attention to this set, you call me Papadope Dias, or Socrates!"

Gu Xiaoshi was right to think about it, in the intensive English class during the holidays, the foreign teacher talked about this aspect, and the David Beckham who played football knew it, but no one called him David, they all called him Beckham, and he should be called by someone's surname, but "Papadop Dias" was too tongue-twisting, so Gu Xiaoshi said: "You're right, but it's a bit long, let's kiss the hot spot, let's call you Papa, right?"

Socrates wanted to cry, how could there be such a shameless person......? It's too different, like the nickname of some pets, so I have no choice but to say: "You still call me Aso......"

So, Socrates Grisco Papadopdias had his own "new name" - Aso.

……

The two of them chatted until late at night, and Asu really knew a lot of things, which really made Gu Xiaoshi admire. Take the history of Shenzhou as an example, I dare not say that it is Bogu and the present, but Asu talked about a lot of historical events, and attached his own opinions, many of which are incisive, at least more than thirty percent, Gu Xiaoshi has never heard of it, he strongly feels that compared to himself, a genuine ordinary high school graduate, Asu is more like from Shenzhou, and even said that Gu Xiaoshi thinks that he can skip the four years of undergraduate and directly enter the history department of Peking University for further study, maybe a doctorate is possible.

Today is an unlucky day, for both. Two people with the same disease, sitting on a bench by the river, communicating with each other, sometimes relaxed, sometimes heavy, sometimes lamenting, sometimes laughing, before they knew it, it was already early in the morning.

The benches by the river were two-way, one person on one side, each lying down, and after talking for a while, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sound by the river, Gu Xiaoshi opened his eyes and saw that the sky was slightly bright, and the clouds in the east had been reflected red by the sun that had not yet poked its head out, and it was a sunny day. Many people are exercising by the river in the morning, or running along the shore, or stretching their limbs while standing still and stretching their limbs, and a café not far away is already open, and people pass by from time to time to buy a hot cup of coffee to start the day.

Gu Xiaoshi sat in place, sighing in his heart, when he woke up, he was already in a foreign country, which was unimaginable a few months ago, the world is impermanent, who could have predicted it?

There were more and more people, coming and going, but no one was staring at them, everything seemed to be normal, Aso was still sleeping, and from time to time he made a slight snoring sound. A round of red sun rises, reflecting the red sky, Gu Xiaoshi looks into the distance, a church-like building, behind it is a tall tower, there is a big clock on it, it is nearly seven o'clock at this time.

Gu Xiaoshi shook Asu, trying to wake him up, but Aso rolled over, as if still dreaming, impatiently waving his hand. There were more people coming and going, Gu Xiaoshi felt a little embarrassed, and shouted in Asu's ear, "Bang!" Asu rolled down the bench, fell to the ground, and immediately woke up, and instantly bounced up, looked around, and shouted, "What's the matter?"

Gu Xiaoshi was amused by him, what could be happier than laughing early in the morning? He said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. It's already dawn, and there are more and more people around, and they're always lying here, isn't it?"

Asu realized the situation in front of him, and agreed with Gu Xiaoshi's statement, and said, "Hey, just like this overnight, it's so hard that my back hurts when I lie down." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden burst of aroma, as if the café over there was baking some dim sum, the two of them look at me, I look at you, and said at the same time: "It's so fragrant, I'm hungry!"

What can I do when I'm hungry? Bear it, the pockets of the two are empty, not to mention breakfast, the money to buy a cup of coffee and drink together is not enough, helpless, there are still some Coke and biscuits left last night, and they will deal with it!

He didn't wash his face, he didn't brush his teeth, Gu Xiaoshi was fine, his hair was not long, he had cut it before he went abroad, just rub it with his hands, Asu's hair looked even messier than last night, a big mouth kept chewing on biscuits, and muttering something from time to time.

Taking turns to go to the public restroom to tidy up their appearance, the two continued to sit in place, waiting. Time passed minute by minute, and finally came to half past eight, cleaned up, and walked to the pick-up point of the academy.

The pick-up point of Augustus College is not too far, about ten minutes, the two of them came to their destination, empty, fortunately there are a few public benches next to the same as the river, wait!

One after another, a few people arrived, all of whom looked young, and they should also be freshmen of the college, but those who came to take the first bus were estimated to have come late last night and stayed in a hotel in the city, so they could arrive here early in the morning.

It was already very close to nine o'clock, Gu Xiaoshi looked around, there were probably less than twenty people, there were men and women, more men and fewer women, most of them were Caucasian, and there were only two with black hair and yellow skin, standing scattered around, it seemed that they didn't know each other, waiting for the upcoming school bus together.

There was still twenty seconds to nine o'clock, the big bell of the church in the distance showed the time, and the school bus had not yet come, Gu Xiaoshi looked at Asu, but found that Asu didn't know which girl he was staring at.

In ten seconds, a yellow body appeared around the corner not far away, heading towards here. The car slowly approached, a very ordinary school bus, often seen on the screen, the whole yellow, with the words "School Bus" printed on both sides, but it seemed to be slightly larger. The school bus stopped, Gu Xiaoshi looked up, it was not early or late, it was exactly nine o'clock, every minute and second was not bad, and he couldn't help but secretly admire that the Swiss concept of time was as accurate as the clocks they made.

It turned out that on the chassis of the school bus, there was a special space for luggage, Gu Xiaoshi put the backpack in it, and when Aso put the box away, the two got on the bus together. The school bus is not big, and it can accommodate more than 30 people by sight, and after the last student gets on the bus, it starts to set off.

Lucerne was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the school bus headed east, and it didn't take long for it to leave the city. Everywhere you pass, both sides of the road are sparse and lala houses, a family and a garden, the spacing is not small, the domestic call this a small villa, foreigners call it "House", the whole Lucerne, except for a few high-rise buildings in the city center, the rest are all this kind of "House", no wonder they all say that the living conditions in Switzerland are superior, Gu Xiaoshi thought, when can he have a house like this, green lawn, wide garden, exquisite attic, sister playing outside, mother sitting under the porch, if you can find a virtuous daughter-in-law……

Asu noticed that the corners of Gu Xiaoshi's mouth were smiling and his expression was different, so he asked curiously, "Man, what are you thinking?"

"Nothing, it's so beautiful here. Gu Xiaoshi replied.

As he spoke, the school bus bypassed a low mountain, and the scenery in front of him changed again. A view of the lake jumps into view, sparkling under the reflection of the morning sun, and occasionally a few small boats rippling on the lake, which is beautiful.

"Look, that's the famous Lake Lucerne. Aso said: "The academy is still ahead, not far away, this large area is a lake area, there are several lakes, the academy is also built by the lake, the scenery is also very beautiful." ”

Gu Xiaoshi nodded, he had seen it on the academy's website.

Augustus College is on the outskirts of the city, more than 20 kilometers away from the city, even if there are very few vehicles on the road, the school bus is not fast, but it is stable, and after another twenty minutes, turning a big mountain, the college appears not far away.

Aso is right, the academy, along with the surrounding scenery, is indeed beautiful. I saw a large building, located on the mountainside, from the ancient small stone, behind the college and on the left, surrounded by mountains, you can see a long and high white wall extending to the front, there is also a wall on the right, under the wall is a lake, this lake is not as big as Lake Lucerne, surrounded by mountains on three sides, there are no boats on the lake, the sun is reflected by the calm surface of the lake, a golden yellow.

Near, there is a fork next to the road, which is dedicated to the college, spiraling up the hillside, not very steep, the distance is not long, the school bus is more stable, slowly advancing, after a while, to a square.

The square is not large, there is a sculpture in the middle, a few school buses are parked on one side, and there is a parking space on the ground on the other side, which seems to be reserved for visitors to park.

Aso pointed to the sculpture and said, "See, Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus, the statue of Octavian, after which the academy is named." ”

Gu Xiaoshi only now knew that the name of the academy came from the founding monarch of ancient Rome, but he didn't understand the reason, he didn't ask much, and his eyes turned to the sculpture.

Unlike elsewhere, this statue of Octavian is not pointing to a distance, but holding a sword. The statue is about 10 meters high, holding a sword in its right hand, pointing straight ahead, a shield in its left hand, holding it at its waist, stepping on its right foot, stepping on a stone with its left foot, wearing a cockscomb helmet and Roman armor with those leggings and boots on its feet.

After getting off the school bus, I came to the gate of the college, which was not wide, about five meters, but it was closed. Gu Xiaoshi looked up, the opening and closing place in the center of the gate is the familiar World Tree Emblem, through the hollow emblem, not far behind the door, there is a small but very long stone screen, blocking the view, can not observe the scene in the academy, the stone screen is embossed with patterns, I can't see what it is.

Gu Xiaoshi stood in front of the gate of the academy and said in his heart, "Augustus Academy, I'm here!"
