3. Follow you like a shadow
"I don't regret that I once loved, but the end of the world has been lonely since then, the ferry in the distance, the lights on the other side, people in the river, only allowed to wander ,......, a short period of happiness, it is enough to have it, as long as you are willing to give it, you will be happy!"
The mobile phone has ringed three times, Duan Pingsi, who was curled up in the quilt, opened his eyes slightly, and the screen showed that it was half past ten in the morning, and then looked out the window, the sky was blue and blue, and there were very few clouds.
The winter in Kunming is not very cold, and after Duan Pingsi washed up, he walked out of the dormitory wearing only a long-sleeved gray sweater, while his roommates were still snoring.
People come and go on the west road of the garden, the traffic is busy, the crowd is so crowded that the water is impassable, and the snack bar owners on both sides of the road shout from time to time to solicit business, and all kinds of tempting fragrances come out of it.
Duan Pingsi felt unbearable hunger, so he bought two roast pig's trotters and nibbled on them, this so-called 20-year-old restaurant's roast pig's trotters lived up to its name, not only chewy, but also not greasy, full of fragrance.
Eating roast pig's trotters is a daily compulsory course for Duan Pingsi, since the first time he came here and was attracted by its aroma, he can no longer live without this delicacy, he thinks that this taste should be better than the legendary bear paw, and the most important thing is that it is cheaper.
Duan Pingsi's family was very poor when he was a child, he didn't eat any big fish and meat, and he didn't wear any brand-name clothes, although his academic performance has always been very good, but in the bottom of his heart he is still very inferior.
He is generous and enthusiastic about acquaintances, but he doesn't know how to communicate better with strangers, so he has not been able to find a thesis advisor until now.
"I've got to do it!" Duan Pingsi said to himself, "Time is running out, if you can't do it, go to the counselor to help introduce it, it's not a shame, it's better than not finishing your job." ”
After gnawing on the two pig's trotters and buying another glass of lemonade to drink, Duan Siping finally felt refreshed, with these energy and water supplements, there was no problem at all to spend this morning.
Walking on Ginkgo Road, he remembered the "ghost" last night, so he carefully paid attention to all the movements behind him, but this time there was nothing suspicious.
"Hey! Schoolmate! A man's call suddenly came from the left side of Ginkgo Road, but Duan Pingsi, who was engrossed in exploring the "ghost", was startled.
"Ahh Duan Pingsi replied with palpitations, "Teacher, are you calling me?" ”
Duan Pingsi looked at the other party, it was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, with a long face, dark skin, a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of his slender nose, wearing a gray coat, and black leather shoes.
I saw that he was carrying a big duffel bag, which was bulging, carrying five or six handbags of various sizes in his hand, and some scattered black plastic boxes on the ground, as if he had just returned from a business trip.
"That's right! I have too much stuff to mention, and if you're not busy, I'd like to ask you for a favor. As he spoke, the teacher pushed the frame of his glasses with the middle finger of his right hand.
"Busy but not busy, I'll take it with you!"
Duan Pingsi saw that it was indeed not easy for him to take so many things, so he bent down and picked up the boxes on the ground, piled them neatly in his arms, and took a heavier bag from the teacher's hand, hoping to help him lighten some more burdens.
"Thank you so much!" The teacher thanked Duan Pingsi as he walked, and he could see that he must have been tired along the way, dusty, and his face was still a little weathered.
"It's just a good job, I just happened to be passing by!" Duan Pingsi looked at this teacher who was relatively unfamiliar, and asked, "I don't know what to call you, there are too many teachers and students in our school, and I don't seem to have seen you before." ”
"Oooh! I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself! The teacher smiled awkwardly and said, "My surname is A, Ejiao's A, Atuan, this name is not very good, a teacher in the biology department, but in recent years, I rarely teach students, only do research, and it is normal for you not to know me." ”
"It turned out to be Professor A, I have heard of your name, you are the most well-known biologist in China, I didn't expect to meet you here today, I am so lucky!"
Hearing that this person was the famous Professor A Tuan, Duan Pingsi's mind instantly presented many legendary anecdotes about this biologist.
As almost every student knows, Professor Ah was once the youngest professor at the university, and he was not yet 30 years old when he was selected as a professor because of his outstanding research achievements.
However, after that, Professor A suddenly faded out of people's field of vision, and it was rumored that he was ostracized by his peers because of his obsession with aliens, so that he has not been able to be rated as an academician until now.
Because of this, his name is easily remembered, and his story is so miraculous that it is even believed that he is the only human who has ever seen an alien.
However, no matter how miraculous the rumors are, they can't seem to resist the weathering of time, and the years have left a ruthless furrow on Professor A's face, he is no longer young, and he walks very slowly.
Duan Pingsi cautiously followed Professor A, and the two crossed Ginkgo Road to the west hall of the Biology Museum, where Professor A opened the security doors with the fingerprint of his right thumb, and finally went up to the laboratory on the third floor after a few minutes.
This is a laboratory of more than 60 square meters, which is equipped with a variety of analytical instruments, some round, some square, and some polygonal, most of which are running and making beeping sounds.
Professor Ah quickly dropped his luggage in an open space, sat down on a black chair, gasped for breath, and picked up the big black fan on the desk and fanned his belly.
"I'm tired, this road is too far, if it weren't for this little thing, I wouldn't want to walk that far!" Professor A shook his fan and complained about the difficulty of his work.
Duan Pingsi finally found a second vacant lot in this laboratory, and then put down the things in his hand, but fortunately, he was young and vigorous and didn't feel very tired.
At this time, an oil painting on the wall opposite the laboratory door attracted Duan Pingsi's attention, the painting was located in the south of Kunming near Huapu, the building appeared majestic and majestic, but the clouds above the background seemed a little abnormal, the clouds were colored when you looked at them, but when you squinted at them, the clouds became ink-colored, and they also showed some strange shapes.
Duan Pingsi looked left and right, and felt more and more that those things were familiar, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, which seemed to hide hundreds of "little people", each with two dark eyes on his face, just like a living person.
"It was painted by my little daughter, and she insisted that I put it here!" Professor A explained to Duan Pingsi, who was in a daze in front of the oil painting, "Little girls, they just like to attract the attention of adults. ”
"It's a nice drawing!" Duan Pingsi praised, but his eyes didn't dare to take another look at the painting.
"Thank you so much today!" Professor A took a book from the bookshelf and handed it to Duan Pingsi, "This "Brief Spectrum of Paleontology" should be regarded as your reward, don't dislike it!" ”
"Nope! No! Duan Pingsi shirked, "Professor A, how can this make me embarrassed?" ”
Professor A shoehorned the book to Duan Pingsi: "It's just a book, if you like it, you can flip through it, and if you don't like it, it doesn't matter if you throw it away." ”
"Alright! Professor, I'll take it. ”
……
That night, Duan Pingsi came out of the school nearly an hour earlier than last night, however, when he walked to Yuanxi Road, there was the sound of fluttering footsteps behind him.
"Da, da......, da
