Chapter 111: Snail Kunken

On the east side of Newton's campus, Thorn Lake is not large, but barely boatable, and along its shores is planted a strange flower called 'Pretty Roland', belonging to the Rolandaceae family of dark-leaved plants, the stems and branches are covered with twisted and sharp barbs, but they can grow five-colored flowers, the shape of the flowers is very similar to the moon season in Jonny's memory, but more delicate and charming.

Jonny and his buddy Roger. Clark is a frequent visitor to Thorn Lake, and for more than half a year, as long as the two of them have lunch, they will come here, rest in the long pavilion on the shore, or take an automatic boat to the center of the lake in the good weather when students are scarce, and talk about it in the rippling blue waves until there is no more topic, Jonny will look through his holographic watch, and Roger will take a beautiful nap.

Today's Thorn Lakeside is very different from usual, except for the gorgeous perennial blooming petals of the beautiful orchid, the refreshing aroma is still the same as before, and the tranquil atmosphere of the quiet and remote corner of the campus has been completely replaced by people and food.

The three of them were still on the path, and they could hear the sound of bagpipes and the sound of harps from afar. In the midst of the vocals, occasionally a reed treble jumps out from the rousing music.

By the time they arrived at the small fountain in the lakeside square, the scene was already more lively. People pick up a variety of delicacies on long tables set up along the promenade along the lake, or sit at the small round tables by the lake with friends, or simply hold plates in the square to watch the performances prepared by various student clubs, and the Thorn Lake District has become a standard holiday playground.

Jonny and the three of them just stood still, Vivien. Lee was pinned down on the shoulder by a guy with a bloated belly like a Storm Sea Roaring Beast.

"'Nut Plum', I knew it was you!" He grabbed Vivien's shoulders and shook them so violently that they alerted Johnny, who was standing nearby, to rush forward and unwring his hand away from his mother's friend's body.

"'Snail'...... Stephen. Kunken? Vivien recognized the reckless guy and waved his hand to signal that Jonny, who had taken the man's arm under control, was okay.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so excited." Stephen Quinken looked at Johnny, who had spread out his hands in apology, as he kneaded his twisted palm.

"Is it your son? He's such a big guy. Kunken complimented Vivien.

"I'm not that lucky, it's Joanna's child." She looked at Kunken with a tiger face, and the fat man saw Joanna behind her, and immediately turned red.

"Goddess...... Oh no, Joanna, you're here too? He greeted the former Banhua embarrassedly.

"Kunken, I haven't seen you in twenty years, and you're still the same." Joanna smiled.

"Aside from gaining a few dozen pounds, the Daredevil's personality really hasn't changed at all." Vivian. Li said politely.

"Hehe, I'm happy to see you, after so many years, it's too difficult to maintain your personality, I'm proud that I haven't changed at all, keep my childlike innocence, ordinary people can't do it as easily as me." He didn't dare to look at Joanna, only at Vivian. Li said with a grin.

"Did you see the rest of the class?" Joanna asked him.

"Trevor White and Scott. Shepard is over there. He pointed to a place in the corridor.

"Why aren't you with them?" Vivien asked him curiously.

"They took the whole family with them." Kunken looked disdainful.

"And the ambition is far away, the edges and corners are gradually flattening, and there is no surprise to see me, so I find an excuse and run away." He said.

"They weren't surprised to see you at that point, your expectations were really funny, and it reminded me of a lot of stupid things you've done, 'snails.'" Vivien said as she reached out and pointed at the tip of his nose, provoking Joanna to cover her mouth and laugh.

"Don't make a kid Stephen, let's go, come with us and say hello to the old classmates." Vivien glared at Kunken fiercely, so he obediently followed her.

"Don't be surprised, they've always been like that." Joanna whispered in Jonny's ear.

A pair of pistachio companions who had been separated for more than twenty years, Jonny defined the two, and he was glad that the presence of Kunken made Joanna seem to regain her former look, and she followed behind the two with a smile, no longer the same as she had just languished.

"Jonny, Jonny!" Roger. Clark suddenly rushed to Jonny's side from a certain direction.

"Come with me to something nice." His eyes were wide open and his cheeks were grinning, like a spotted finch that had spotted a large pile of pine chestnut nuts and couldn't wait to find someone to share them.

"Roger, you've seen my mother, please show your courtesy." Jonny frowned as he reminded his naughty friend.

"Oh, Auntie, I didn't notice you just now, oh my God, it's only been a few days since we last met, but you seem to be a few years younger! The old man must be very fond of your face, and he can't bear his most beloved ......" He began to run the train with a full mouth with a rich expression.

"Mom, go see your friends, I'll take this obnoxious guy away from here." Jonny interrupted Hill's head hard, but it was clearly too late, for Joanna was already trembling with Roger's laughter.

"Okay, let's go play." She wiped tears from her laughing eyes. "Roger, you can't spoil our Jonny." Joanna said softly.

"Auntie, you don't know something, all these bad things about me are all due to Jonny......" He was dragged away by Jonny before he could finish his sentence.

……

"What good thing needs to be so surprised?" Jonny came angrily with Roger. Clark, the blonde youth, pushed and bumped his way through the crowd.

"Don't you know if you see it?" He actually sold Guanzi.

The two walked along the lakeside promenade to the northernmost pavilion of Thorn Lake, and Roger stopped, pointed to the buffet table in the pavilion with his arm, and said to Johnny angrily, "I can bet with my life, you have never seen such a beautiful thing." ”

Jonny approached to take a closer look, and it turned out that in the center of the gazebo, on the flexible beam tray of the round buffet table, dozens of Newton burgers wrapped in blue leather paper were stacked neatly, and they exuded a thick aroma of fat meat in the light and shadow of the tray.

Roger looked at him with a smile on his face and looked at the pile of burgers for a moment, he was very proud, but he looked hesitant, and that expression was absolutely amazing in Johnny's eyes.
