Chapter Forty-Seven: Seeking and Seeking
After saying goodbye to Su Rumei, Chen Ziluo hurriedly boarded the bus to Nanjing City, sat on the bus, looked at the high-rise buildings outside the window, and felt a trace of inexplicable feeling in his heart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Nanjing, a city he is familiar with and unfamiliar with, has been here a few times in his previous life when he was writing manuscripts and working as an editor, and has stayed for a long time, but somehow, he always has no sense of belonging here.
Compared with Nanjing, although Anyang City has a large population, in general, it can only be regarded as a small city.
I found a small hotel near the train station and stayed, at this time Nanjing has not reached the level of soaring prices in later generations, and it doesn't cost dozens of yuan to stay in a small hotel for a night, Chen Ziluo paid a deposit of 300 yuan, and then pulled his suitcase and lived in a single room.
After the problem of living was solved, Chen Ziluo looked at the time again, it was just after two o'clock, took his wallet, locked the door, and walked out with an umbrella.
At this time, there was a light rain in the sky over Nanjing City.
Since he made up his mind to come to Nanjing to look for bayberry, Chen Ziluo has been fully mentally prepared, even if there are not many high schools in Nanjing City, if you want to find bayberry, you will inevitably have to spend some effort.
And now, the first place he is going to is Nanjing No. 1 Middle School.
………………
There were strangers in his eyes, and Chen Ziluo walked to the nearby bus stop with an umbrella.
There were a few sparse people standing on the platform, they didn't know each other, no one spoke, and it was very quiet.
didn't wait for a few minutes, Chen Ziluo waited for the No. 23 bus, followed the crowd on the bus, even if Nanjing has not prospered to the extent that it will be in the future, but the seats in the car are still full, carrying an umbrella, Chen Ziluo grabbed the handle with one hand, and the car began to start slowly.
Along the way, Chen Ziluo's body swayed back and forth with the acceleration and deceleration of the bus.
"Huh?" Halfway through the car, Chen Ziluo felt as if something was missing in his bag, so he quickly reached out and touched it.
"The wallet is gone." Chen Ziluo smiled bitterly and shook his head, helpless for a while.
"Luckily, I was prepared." But then he was a little lucky, in fact, he had already expected this situation, the means of pickpockets and thieves were endless, and he had no way to prevent it, so he could only prepare for both hands first.
There were actually only twenty yuan in that wallet, and the rest of the money had already been transferred to Chen Ziluo's left pocket.
Holding an umbrella in his left hand and sticking it to the edge of his pocket, even those pickpockets have no chance to steal it.
It's just that he lost twenty yuan, and there is nothing to be sorry for, after Chen Ziluo smiled, he put it behind him.
"The campus of Nanjing No. 1 Middle School on Longshan Road has arrived, please take care of your valuables and prepare to get off the bus......"
After hearing an announcement from the bus, when the car stopped at the platform, Chen Ziluo got off the bus together in the crowd.
"Hey, what's that?" As soon as he got out of the car, Chen Ziluo found that he was stuffed with something bulging in his pocket, opened the umbrella, and reached out to take it out of his pocket.
Take it out and take a look, huh? Isn't this my wallet? Chen Ziluo hurriedly opened his wallet again to take a look, and the twenty yuan was completely placed inside, and the sharp-eyed man found a note next to the twenty yuan.
took out the note, spread it out and looked at it, Chen Ziluo couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Poof!" Chen Ziluo smiled, and said to himself: "This thief is really funny!" ”
I saw a paragraph written on the note - buddy, take twenty yuan when you go out, are you embarrassed? Brother, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't take your money, lest you don't even have the fare to go home and take the bus.
With a smile, Chen Ziluo crumpled the note and threw it into the trash can next to him, and then set off to Nanjing No. 1 Middle School.
Smile more on weekdays, although it will not bring good luck, but at least it will not make you unhappy, with a smile, Chen Ziluo walked to the door of Nanjing No. 1 Middle School with steps.
"What for?" Chen Ziluo was just about to enter the door, but was stopped by the old man who guarded the door.
The old man walked to Chen Ziluo's side, glanced him up and down, and asked, "Look at you like this, aren't you a student of our school?" Go ahead! What are you here for? ”
Chen Ziluo took out the cigarette case from the bag, took out a cigarette in it and handed it to the old man, and said with an iodine face: "Uncle, I am here to find my sister." ”
"Is your sister a freshman or sophomore in high school, how many classes are there, what's her name?" The old man was not embarrassed, as a matter of course, he reached out and took the cigarette and asked again.
"It's supposed to be a sophomore in high school, right? I don't know how many classes it is, her name is Yangmei, uncle, or you can help me check it! Chen Ziluo replied.
This is the rhetoric he has prepared for a long time, although there are not many high schools in Nanjing City, but there are also a lot, how easy it is to find a bayberry among so many students, and even if you look for it, a stranger like you in the school will not let you in! So Chen Ziluo thought of such a compromise solution.
The janitor of each school should have a list of all the students in the school, and most of the gatekeepers are old men, hand him a cigarette or two, and speak politely, it is impossible for others not to help.
"Hey! How did you become an older brother, I don't even know how many classes my sister is in high school, and it's true. ”
"Isn't that hard to remember?" Chen Ziluo said embarrassedly.
"Then you wait here first! I'll go in and check it out for you. ”
"Howler!"
After a few minutes, Chen Ziluo saw the old man walking out of the guard room with a document, hurriedly handed over another cigarette, and asked softly, "Uncle, have you found it?" ”
The old man spread out the document, pointed to a name in the middle of the list, and said, "There is a girl named Yangmei in the seventh class of the second year of high school, you can go in and find it." ”
"Okay, uncle, see you later!" When he turned his head to take a look, Chen Ziluo was suddenly overjoyed, waved his hand to the old man, and hurriedly ran to the school.
"Hey, I'll look for it after class, don't disturb the students." This is, the old man hurriedly shouted again in the back.
"Got it, uncle."
………………
Walking up to the teaching building, Chen Ziluo walked floor by floor, and then found the seventh class of the second class of high school in the second classroom on the third floor, and waited for more than ten minutes before Chen Ziluo finally heard the bell for the end of class.
After class, Chen Ziluo hurriedly grabbed a girl who ran from the seventh class classroom to the toilet, and said politely: "Classmate, can you help me call the bayberry in your class?" ”
"Okay!" The girl saw that Chen Ziluo was wearing a slightly alternative airplane head compared to others, and he looked a little handsome, so she agreed with a smile.
"Thank you then!"
"It's fine." The girl waved her hand and replied, and Chen Ziluo was caught off guard and shouted into the classroom: "Yangmei, there is a handsome guy looking for you." ”
