Chapter Seventy-Four: The Story of That Ginkgo

After a long chat, although the two were in different moods, Duanmu Ci and Wei Yue still remembered today's main task - visiting the University of Tokyo.

After having lunch in the Hilton restaurant, they set off for their destination.

Wei Yue originally didn't want to go, as the man of the year at the University of Tokyo, there must be many leaders and teachers who were impressed by him, which was very detrimental to keeping his identity. However, this point is not hindered by Duanmu Ci.

Because he can wear makeup.

Others are proficient in makeup in order to modify their appearance, but Duanmu Ci is proficient in makeup in order to cover his appearance. In his long life, there are always times when he has to stay in one place for a long time, and at this time, Duanmu Ci needs to pinch the time to slowly grow old with his appearance and the people around him, which is one of the important reasons why he has been able to survive more than two thousand years safely.

Duanmuci asked Weiyue to sit in front of the mirror, and in his hand was some Kanebo cosmetics that the waiter had just bought from Shinjuku City, which is a time-honored brand in Tokyo, founded in 1936, and has a good reputation, and the power of the brand is one of the reasons why Duanmuci can safely use these things to perform makeup on Weiyue.

Thousands of years of old craftsmanship, Duanmuci's makeup skills are also very concise. Just lightly outline with an eyebrow pencil, then apply a little more colour in key areas before grabbing the hairstyle a little more. Wei Yue has changed from a handsome young man with graceful lips and white teeth to a mature uncle in his early thirties.

"It's amazing." Wei Yue looked at herself in the mirror in surprise, "I didn't expect Duanmujun to be a makeup master, I really can't see it." ”

"The sound is not right." Duanmu Ci frowned, "Although your image has changed, your voice is still Xiao Zhengtai!" It sounds jarring, but after all, you're not trained as a professional voice actor, so it's no wonder that you don't talk much when you get there, and if you have to, try to make your voice as thick as possible. ”

"It sounds like Duanmu-kun is really versatile!"

Duanmu Ci smiled silently, if he didn't master some skills that could hide his secrets, he would have died a long time ago. For example, in the Hongwu era of Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court decrees were strict, and Duanmu Ci was a six-rank court official, but he found that he could not tell the old man, because Zhu Yuanzhang was not allowed to resign, so he could only use makeup to make himself grow old slowly, and finally succeeded in begging for bones in the first year of Jianwen after Zhu Yuanzhang's death.

Otherwise, once Changsheng's secret is exposed, what awaits Duanmu will be Jinyiwei's torture to extract a confession.

Therefore, Duanmu Ci used his life experience to explain to everyone the true meaning of "art is not pressing".

……

Because it was not an official visit, the president of Tokyo University did not come forward this time, but only sent a vice president to come forward as a receptionist and take Duanmu Ci and Wei Yue on a tour of the campus.

"It's a shame that both of you came here for lunch, otherwise I would have invited you to taste the cafeteria of our University of Tokyo, so as to be the best of the host." The Vice Chancellor smiled.

"Oh? That's a shame, but isn't there anything special about your school's cafeteria? Duanmu Ci asked deliberately, generally speaking, for a normal school, the cafeteria is a piece of something similar to a stain. If it weren't for his particular confidence, even Haishan University wouldn't dare to make a request for visitors from foreign schools to eat in the cafeteria, so Duanmuci would follow this question and ask a question, which would definitely scratch the itch of the vice president.

"Mr. Duanmu's Japanese is really fluent, and his authentic Tokyo accent is even better than that of me, a Japanese from Osaka, which is really rare!" The vice principal complimented in a surprised tone, and then became a little proud, "The cafeteria of the school was once evaluated by Michelin as having a five-star level, and it is barely admitted. ”

With a proud red light on his face, but his mouth was full of humble words, is it really good to be inconsistent in front of him Duanmuci began to secretly evaluate the level of this vice principal.

"It's a pity, it's April and the cherry blossoms in Tokyo are all gone, otherwise it would be fun to walk along the cherry blossom avenue with you in the spring, but if you two still have a chance to come in the fall, you can take a walk along the ginkgo avenue, which is also a special taste."

"I hope there will be such a fate." Duanmu Ci catered to it. He made a little contact with the vice principal, but found that the vice principal really had something extraordinary, at least he spoke very beautifully, and even a bit like Wei Yue's tone.

"The vice president was a professor of language and culture when I was a student at the University of Tokyo." Wei Yue lowered her head and whispered.

It's no wonder that the professor who taught this course didn't even have a Tokyo accent, and he really relied on strength to win.

Duanmuci and Wei Yue have been touring the academy with this vice principal, this school is very large, but Duanmuci looks at it very seriously. There are no modern buildings, no towering buildings, no prominent signs, just some calm buildings, in the style of 19th-century British architecture.

"That's Naito Ginkgo." The vice president suddenly pointed to a ginkgo tree, "Mr. Naito is a very good teacher at our University of Tokyo, and I regret that he retired in 2011. ”

At that time, Mr. Naito was giving a retirement speech in the large classroom, but just in time for the earthquake, there were more than 200 students in the classroom, and all of them left the classroom in an orderly manner, and then gathered under the large ginkgo tree in the central open space of the Faculty of Engineering, and continued to listen to Mr. Naito's resignation speech, and everyone formed a circle under the ginkgo tree, and the students in the front row consciously squatted down. Although there were still aftershocks, everyone did not make any noise at all, and only continued to give the professor a short retirement speech on the last podium. ”

The Vice President said with emotion, "The University of Tokyo has an old building with a history of more than 100 years, famous students, and a huge amount of education funds allocated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture every year, but these are not the things that we value most. What we value most is this tradition of respecting teachers and respecting teachers that has been passed down from history, and as long as this tradition continues day by day, we at Tokyo University will still be the best university in Japan without these old buildings, without these famous students, and without these astronomical educational funds! ”

Duanmu gave a secret heart.

When Taizong visited Japan, he strengthened his determination to "develop" after taking the Shinkansen. Just like that stormy era, countless people who studied abroad have also strengthened their belief in serving the motherland after seeing the development of foreign countries. And now, Duanmuci, a disciple of the sage, involuntarily sprouted his determination to revitalize national education again.

"Such a national spirit is really terrifying." Duanmu Ci sighed in his heart, and then blamed the shameless cheating behavior of the US government in throwing the atomic bomb again.

If people want "100 million jade pieces", let him break the jade! How heroic! What are you doing in your way? Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much trouble later!

Duanmu Ci thought very irresponsibly.
