It was already 11 o'clock in the night when I returned to Ade's "Ade's Hotel", and it seemed that Ade was the only one in the hostel, and he was still staying at the front desk, playing a game. Because I don't know much about the customs and customs of Taipei, I am going to talk to him for a while.

Ade is also a smoker, more interested in mainland cigarettes, so I gave him half a pack of unfinished red Nanjing, he grinned, a happy look, he told me that his sister who sells milk tea in Suzhou would bring him some mainland cigarettes every time he came back, so he felt that Nanjing cigarettes were very kind.

Ade lit a Nanjing cigarette, I smoked his longevity cigarette, I first chatted with him about some of the customs here, and he turned to ask me about the purpose of coming to Taipei: "Aqiao, you came to Taipei to travel roar?" ”

I replied, "Don't mention it, I'm here to find someone, and I almost lost myself on the first day...... You thieves in Taipei, in terms of technology, are no worse than those in our mainland, and you have taken my wallet and mobile phone away without knowing it! ”

Ade touched the gold necklace around his neck and comforted: "Don't be depressed (depressed), there is no such enthusiastic boss as me in Taipei, I have saved a lot of money." ”

I praised: "Good citizen of Taipei. ”

Ade squinted his small eyes and smiled, and then took out a Nanjing cigarette from his cigarette case and lit it addictively.

Suddenly, his cell phone rang, I thought he was going to answer the phone, who knew he didn't look, so I hurried upstairs, I was a little confused by his strange behavior, and hurriedly followed him upstairs.

On a somewhat secluded balcony, with a telescope set up, Ade pouted his ass and looked intently in the direction of the new university.

"Ade, what are you doing here?"

He replied vaguely, "Look at the goddess! ……”

I faced the night, looked into the distance with my naked eyes, and vaguely saw a dormitory building, but I couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, but in an instant, I understood that the mobile phone ringtone just now was not a call, but a reminder to Ade to do this.

Sure enough, Ade said to me, "Aqiao, you know, my goddess washes clothes three times a week, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, and today is Sunday, and she is standing on the balcony to dry her clothes...... Hey, hey, I see! ”

Ade is obscene, I immediately have a new judgment on him in my heart, how can a normal man spy on a woman drying clothes!

He beckoned to me again: "Come and see, isn't it beautiful......!?" ”

"Ade, now is your time, don't share it with others lightly, or wait until next Wednesday."

"Sometimes, she only washes twice a week!"

"That's it, if you're unlucky, we'll have to wait until next Friday."

Ade replied, also thinking that the opportunity was rare, and then stopped talking to me, and focused all his attention on the view of the telescope, while I sat down on a bamboo chair next to me, and also looked in the direction of Shihsin University.

Actually, I also miss the woman at this moment, but I am different from Ade, he directly attacks with his vision, and I can only use my mind to imagine what she is doing, so I am not as happy as Ade, at least not now.

……

The pleasure of the telescope lasted for about ten minutes, and when it was over, he sat down next to me, nearly squeezing me out of the bamboo chair because of his size.

I handed Ade another cigarette, and he lit it, but his body kept squeezing me, so that my elbows were almost touching my lower abdomen, but he still lit a cigarette and smoked it in an extremely awkward position.

I like the night in Taipei, there is a little sadness on the literary level, and a little loneliness in human nature, just like me and Ade at this moment, we all live in our hearts with a girl who can't get it for the time being, so we must light a cigarette, and it burns not only some messy love, but also Na Chi. Bare. Naked**.

Ade gave me a little place, and he also felt sad in such a night, so he said something heart-wrenching to me, and he took a puff of cigarette and said to me: "Ah Qiao roared, in fact, I have lived a very inferior life all these years, my parents divorced when I was young, and I live with my father." However, my dad died of pancreatic cancer a few years ago, leaving only this hostel...... I don't have any skills, and I'm easy to be looked down upon by others, so I get tattoos, dye my hair and wear gold chains, which looks quite ruthless, but in fact, I am afraid of being bullied by others......"

I looked at him again, and at first glance he really looked like a ruffian, but when I listened to him carefully, I found that he had a very soft personality, and there was no aggression in his words at all. Although he was cowardly, he was also a smart man, and at least he knew how to disguise himself by dyeing his hair with tattoos and wearing gold chains.

I patted him on the shoulder with empathy and replied, "Actually, my family is similar to yours!" So, I kind of understand your feelings. ”

"Is it a roar?"

I nodded, then changed the subject to him and said, "Tell me about the girl you like." ”

Ade squinted his eyes and took a deep puff of his cigarette before he said to me after a long time: "Her name is Lin Ziqing, and she is a junior at Shih-Hsin University......

"How did you meet her?"

"Last year, they had an event in their department, they came outside the school to look for sponsorship, and they came to me. She said that as long as I sponsor NT$10,000, I can help my hostel advertise at their event......"

I nodded, about college students looking for off-campus merchants to sponsor activities, which are also common in the mainland, and I asked again, "Did you like her at first sight?" ”

"That's right, the two dimples roared when she laughed, just like Ruby Lin! Looking at her, the whole person feels in a good mood...... I've been asking for news ever since...... Alas! It's a pity that we are people from two worlds, her family conditions are very good, her father is the director of the hospital, and her mother works in the Ministry of Transportation. ”

"And does she know you like her?"

Ade shook his head again and again: "How dare I confess my roar!" ”

I looked at Ade, who was so inferior that I couldn't raise my head, as if I saw myself not long ago, if I didn't have the fate of growing up together with Chen Yi, then I'm afraid I'm the current Ade, and I don't even have the courage to say a word to Chen Yi, after all, I'm just a small clerk of a wedding company, but she is a beautiful host who is famous all over the country, so this is my luck, but I and Ade are on the same path after all, and in the end I didn't be able to get together with Chen Yi.

I just patted Ade's shoulder and didn't continue, then took a puff of cigarette at the same frequency as Ade, and spit out in sympathy.

After sitting in silence for a while, I said, "Ade, can you do me a favor?" ”

"What's the hurry?"

"I still have more than NT$3,000 on me, and you can help me convert all of them into 10 yuan coins, okay?"

"Why do you want so many coins?"

"I want to find a woman as much as possible, otherwise I won't be able to get along in Taipei."

Ade looked at me in surprise and asked, "Of course this is okay, but what does this have to do with you looking for someone?" ”

"Don't be curious about this...... By the way, if you want to ask Lin Ziqing out for dinner, or write a love letter to her, I can run errands for you! ”

Ade looked at me in horror and replied, "Forget it, I still prefer the feeling of a crush." ”

I teased, "Well, you also like to take the binoculars and watch her change clothes." ”

Ade hurriedly argued: "It's the roar of the laundry." ”

I laughed, then snuffed out my cigarette and walked to the small room where I lived.

……

The next day, I woke up early in the morning, and Ade got up earlier than me, sitting at the front desk eating instant noodles and playing with his phone. I came to him, and without waiting for me to ask, he brought out a bag, handed it to me, and said, "I gave you 3,500 yuan in coins." ”

I took out my wallet and counted it, but I only had 3,200 yuan left, and when I said it was only 3,200 yuan, Ade didn't pay much attention to it. He said I'll give him two more packs of Nanjing cigarettes.

After exchanging the money, I put all the coins in my pocket, and then borrowed a pen with Ade to write a sign and pin it to my belt.

I arrived at the entrance of Shih-Hsin University, sat down in a prominent place, and placed my fanny pack on the ground along with the sign.

The sign reads: "I want to find a girl named Xiao Ai, she lives near Shih-Hsin University, if anyone is willing to help me inquire about her, I am willing to treat him (her) to eat a hamburger, the coin is in the waist bag, please pick it up!" ”

At this time, it was the peak of the students' classes, and the students who passed by one after another quickly surrounded me with curiosity, asking me if I was real, and some people took pictures and videos of me.

I immediately made a gesture of please, signaling that they could take the money for a burger from it if they wanted to.

Actually, no one cares about the money for this burger, but this method has attracted the attention of the students to the greatest extent, especially this is a media type school, and the students are generally more sensitive to this kind of small news events, so I chose this method, which is much better than looking for a needle in a haystack myself.

Finally, a guy took a few coins from my pocket and said to me, "I'll eat a burger of yours, and then I'll post a video of you looking for someone on our school forum, and if she's here, there'll be news soon!" ”

I hurriedly thanked him, and told him about Xiao Ai's physical characteristics and the information from Nanjing.

Soon, a second person took the coins from my pocket. She said that she would mobilize her classmates to forward my missing person's message on social media.

It was almost nine o'clock, and there was no money in my pocket, so I just sat at the school gate and waited. I firmly believe that if Xiao Ai really lives near Shih-Hsin University, then this kind of net-like search method will definitely find out about her. If I'm lucky, maybe I'll see her later.

In the harsh sunlight, I lit a long-lived cigarette from Ade, and then calmly leaned against the lamppost behind me and waited.

Although this trip to Taipei was like an adventure for me about survival, it also made me lose a lot of the troubles left over from Nanjing, and I didn't bother to think about whether I could make it to tomorrow.

I only hope that Xiao Ai can appear soon, and don't let my desperate adventure become a regret that I can't even solve the problem of food and clothing in the end!
