The Boy with The Dragon Tattoo

Chapter 37: Visited suddenly

Views:

On this day, Zi Yang suddenly received a call from A Chong. Probably because of not dealing with people often, Ah Chong came up without greeting, and asked straightforwardly, "Do you have time lately?"

Zi Yang has nothing but time.

And since the last time we broke up, I've always wanted to talk to A Chong and solve a few questions in my mind.

A Chong said: "After the Shaanxi incident ended last time, I came back to report to Professor Zhang. The professor was very interested after hearing about Xiaohei's experience-this time the funds were specially approved by him."

"The professor happened to be going south to deal with something recently, passing through your city when changing planes, I want to talk to you, and see Xiao Hei by the way."

Zi Yang has always admired this mysterious Professor Zhang very much. Although he had met once when he was a child, he also gave a quick glance. It is estimated that the professor no longer remembers him as a kid.

Busily said, "Okay, when and where to meet?"

A Chong reported him an address and time, and then hung up the phone.

"Hey, don't ask me how I'm doing..." Zi Yang also had no temper when he met such a straightforward person, holding the microphone in vain melancholy for a while.

The one who was most excited about this meeting was Lao Wang. I heard that Professor Zhang was going to invite them to dinner at the Dynasty Hotel. He had no food for two days.

At the appointed time, the two took Xiao Hei and drove a black car there. When they saw the imposing Dynasty Hotel like the Great Hall of the People, Pharaoh almost fainted in excitement on the spot, and supported by two battlefields. The wall went in.

Under the guidance of the waiter, the three of them entered a luxurious box called "Tian Yuan". There is a large carved solid wood table in the middle, and a large glass turntable in the middle is enough to lie down for three people. On the top is a very fancy European-style crystal ceiling, beside it, there is a large sofa and a bright coffee table, which I want to use for guests to rest.

Lao Wang sat down in front of the round table, unfastened a few buttons on his belt with both hands and said, "I'm ready. Three days of bigu will be the present. Seeing if I don't eat him, he will be turned upside down!"

During this period of time, Zi Yang had instant noodles with pickles all day long, but it was not easy for Lao Wang to deal with it.

Lao Wang looked at the magnificent suite and said, "What a luxury, Professor Zhang and his unit? With such ample funding, I think A Chong was already doing extraordinary things when he took us to a big meal last time. I didn't expect his master to be even more magnificent! You said that there must be a minimum consumption for this private room? Can't you get one or two thousand?"

Zi Yang flipped through the menu and said, "The minimum starts at 3,000."

When Lao Wang heard the unhealthy red glow on his cheeks, he patted the table with his hands and shouted: "The waiter serves the dishes!"

Zi Yang looked at his watch and said, "You insist on another 30 minutes, we are early!"

Lao Wang said: "Persist in at most 25 minutes, I will eat this table one minute later!!"

Fortunately, the professor arrived after ten minutes. Save a table for the restaurant.

Professor Zhang is in his fifties, of medium build and rich in body shape. The face is white and fat, the chin is long, the head is large, the hairline is high, the front hair has been taken off a lot, revealing a knowledgeable brain door, the hair on the temples and the back of the head is still black, very delicately combed And stick it softly on the head.

The upper body is wearing a short-sleeved plaid shirt, neatly tied in the waistband, the lower body is black suit trousers, and a pair of cheap leather shoes. A very ordinary person can't be recognized at a glance when walking in the crowd.

Professor Zhang came in under the guidance of the waiter and walked quietly, not as grand as he thought. When I saw Zi Yang and other people, they just smiled and nodded, and gently shook everyone's hands very politely. They were like water, the palms were soft and moderate in weight.

Everyone did it in stages. The professor still looked at everyone with a smile on his face. Zi Yang was a little embarrassed. Only then did he remember that he should introduce a few representatives of his side to Professor Zhang.

This thin man is Xiao Hei, and this fat man is Lao Wang. Professor Zhang always smiled and nodded when he introduced a person, and his eyes paused slightly when he talked about Xiao Hei.

After the introduction, Professor Zhang finally began to speak, his mouth was a soft southern accent: "I heard that A Chong said about you before, and I probably have an impression that I am more sympathetic to your experience. This time I came to you, too. Just passing by, the leaders of this city have some friendship with me, and I must have a dinner..."

Zi Yang and Lao Wang looked at each other and had friendship with the city leaders. What a high level this is!

"I don't like this kind of official entertainment. I have already declined it with good intentions, but they said that the hotel has been booked and the money has been paid, and they cannot be refunded. It would be a waste not to come."

"I thought that A Chong had said your address, which happened to be in this city, so I invited you to come together. I know that it is not easy to be a student now. It is a rare opportunity to have a big meal."

These last few words are very grounded, and they all at once eliminated the barriers between everyone. The old Wang felt like a confidant. He immediately opened up the chatterbox, "You don’t know how hard it is for college students now, and how expensive it is. The cafeteria is so big and the cafeteria is so bad. The cafeteria chefs don’t treat us as human beings. They feed me as pigs. I had a meal of fried tomato mooncakes two days ago, but it made me sick."

Zi Yangbai glanced at him, disgusting, you also ate two big plates!

The professor is not a talkative person, but he is a good listener. With his kind face, he feels very close, like an uncle next door, without a sense of distance at all.

When the old Wang complained. The waiter brought up the dishes and drinks like flowing water, which seemed to be prepared for more than a dozen people. Pharaoh immediately cut off his voice and threw away his cheeks to eat and drink.

In order to avoid the cold, Zi Yang told Professor Zhang about his previous adventures while eating. Knowing that the professor was A Chong's master, he also regarded the professor as his own, without any concealment in his words. Now he told the professor how to meet A Chong in the hospital, how to get to the highlands of northern Shaanxi, how to meet Uncle Li's gang, and the various experiences in the temple.

The professor nodded while listening very politely, and occasionally asked a few questions where Zi Yang could not explain clearly. For the full table of wine and dishes, just a taste.

At the end of hearing, Professor Zhang asked, "How many pieces of paper did you say that the old man in the temple gave you?"

Zi Yang said, "Yes, those pieces of leather paper are old. I was afraid of damage, so I found a place to seal them up properly. I didn't move them until Xiao Hei grew up and gave them to him."

Seeing the professor's expression a little disappointed, Zi Yang finally politely followed up "Why do you want to see the professor? I didn't bring it with me..."

—Of course it’s just talking. After the old man took care of his children, he kept his teachings in mind and didn’t show it to anyone except a few people present. Even if Professor Zhang is A Chong’s master, he can’t violate his promise to the old man.

Professor Zhang was very self-reliant, his disappointed expression was fleeting, and he smiled and said, "Forget it, since the old man gave it a special explanation, you'd better keep it away."

"Come on, try this, I think you just patronized and talked, and you didn't eat much... Enough? Would you like the waiter to add more dishes?" This was said to Lao Wang.

This table full of wine and vegetables worth more than a dozen people has been wiped out by Lao Wang and Xiao Hei. Although Xiao Hei is small, one person can eat the appetite of two adults. Lao Wang is even more powerful. Can support the appetite of two small blacks.

Lao Wang knew how to have a face anyway, and shook his hands again and again and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, add more after eating."

Next came the gossip. Professor Zhang asked Lao Wang and Zi Yang about the situation at home very casually. He didn't say a word about Xiao Hei.

After an hour's work, everyone had eaten and drank enough, and the old Wang patted his stomach with satisfaction, burped his legs, and sat on a chair like a big toad.

The professor cleared his throat and said, "I came on the way this time, and happened to be transiting in City H. A strange thing happened in a place in the south, and I specially asked me to take care of it myself. I will leave tomorrow morning. I listened to you just now. It means that I am very interested in tourism and adventure. Yes, young people are commendable for their adventurous spirit."

After a pause, he said, "If you have time, you can also go with me this time. I guess I will be back in a few days at most."

Zi Yang said, "It's affirmative to gain insight. The professor is a wizard, and it is our honor to be able to see the style. It must be more than what we learned in school, and we have plenty of time, but..." Wang glanced at each other, then embarrassed to speak.

"We are poor, can you report the round-trip ticket?" Lao Wang was very direct!

"Hahaha," the professor laughed heartily, "the young man has a straightforward character, and I like it. We also attach great importance to this operation. The other party's special plane and special car package delivery, board and lodging are also arranged by the other party."

When Lao Wang heard this, his eyebrows were overjoyed, and he had another chance to go out for fun. School will start in a few days, and this guy doesn't worry about making up the five courses at all.

Zi Yang is especially happy. If the expenses in the past few days can be saved, it will be a great relief to his own economy. Lao Wang and Xiao Hei are really good at eating, and half of their hosts have been eaten by them. Up.

The professor came over this time and prepared a gift for Xiao Hei by the way—the household registration book, and the information on it was very clear—the magical professor actually got him a set of official identification documents.

Lao Wang looked at him and said, "It's the same!"

The professor laughed and said, "It is indeed true. After listening to A Chong's introduction to Xiao Hei, I also know that it is not easy for you two college students to bring a child with inconvenience in communication, so I sent someone to Xiao Hei's hometown to get a set of documents. Because of his special circumstances, there was no official information about him before this. The above information is based on A Chong’s description-this is also a flexible business.

Although the professor downplayed, Zi Yang also knew how difficult these twists and turns were, and he added another respect to Professor Zhang, who is so powerful.

But when I saw the name on my ID, I was a little bit dumbfounded, Huang Xiaohei...

Going back that night, I simply sorted out some personal things. It was nothing more than preparing an ID card and two changed underwear.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone set off before dawn. According to the information given by the professor, they arrived at a military airport in H city. After reading their documents, the guards sent a car to take them to a special plane. It seems that the professor Arrangements have already been made.

Lao Wang kept his mouth slurping along the way, "What kind of status is this professor? It's really amazing. You see, the special car, the special plane, even the guards look at us with strange eyes..."

It was still dark. Taking advantage of the dim night, the two saw a small business plane on the tarmac, and the professor on the plane was already waiting for everyone.

In addition to a few of them, there are also two students of the professor, a young student in his twenties with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a tunic suit rarely seen among young people. It seems that he is not interested in living people. , But there is a special sentiment for cups, jars, tables, chairs and other things, over and over again.

The other is a thin girl in her twenties with a long hair shawl covering her face and unable to see her full face. Her eyes were blank. After boarding the plane, she sat and looked out the window blankly.

The professor did not recommend to everyone, but simply introduced that these are my two students and this is A Chong's friend.

The man with glasses nodded to the air, and the girl with shaved hair showed no expression.

Zi Yang is also unambiguous here, Pharaoh's nostrils are in the sky, Xiao Hei looks around at a loss, and neither party pays attention to anyone.

The professor bowed his head to study a pile of materials in his position, and was not concerned about whether the interpersonal relationship of this group of young people was harmonious.
