Shen Li took out the backpack.
This is a plain black backpack that looks a bit old.
"You didn't mention looking for this bag before, so I didn't care. This time when I was packing up, I realized that I had been pressing it for a long time."
Wen Xiao tilted his head and thought for a while,
"I remember that was the book you packed in this backpack?"
Shen Li nodded:
"it is this."
She patted the bag, probably because it had been stored for too long, and it had a faint smell of dampness.
But the whole is still intact.
She thought about it for a while, and said:
"When the accident happened, I was in too much of a hurry. After I went back, I found that the book in it was missing, but I couldn't find it again. It should have been at that time. I left this backpack in the auto repair shop. factory."
"The bag is gone, why didn't you think about going back to get it? Didn't you even ask?"
If she had mentioned this matter at that time, he would have returned the bag to her long ago, so he wouldn't have found out after holding it in the warehouse for so long.
Shen Li smiled faintly:
"There was only that one book in this bag at the time, and if the book is lost, the backpack doesn't matter."
Wen Xiao's lips moved.
Too.
For her, that book was the most important thing.
As for a backpack... comparatively speaking, it really doesn't matter that much.
Shen Li looked at the black backpack in his hand.
At that time, all she could think about was the book, and she couldn't care less about other things.
After returning home, she directly bought a similar black backpack.
If Wen Xiao hadn't mentioned it suddenly this time, she probably would never have remembered it.
"Although it's been a long time, it's your thing after all, so I'd better return it to you. As for how to deal with it, it's up to you." Wen Xiao said.
"Thank you Uncle Wen.'"
Shen Li unzipped the backpack and stuffed the books into it.
Wen Xiao was right, after all, these are her things, not worth much, but they carry her memory.
She stood up:
"Then Uncle Wen, shall I go back first?"
Wen Xiao played with the phone, waved at her, and finally lit the cigarette with a "click".
When Shen Li was about to leave, he remembered something:
"By the way, you're going to pay the third loan next month, right?"
Shen Li's expression was light: "Yes."
Wen Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, took a puff of cigarette, thought for a while, and then said:
"If Saint really goes to Hong Kong City this time, you should hold back your anger. One more thing, the most important thing is, don't bet against him again, you know?"
It's okay to win, but to lose again...
Who knows what this ancestor will do again.
Shen Li picked up the bag on one shoulder:
"I try my best."
…
When Shen Li returned home, Shen Zhijin had already come back one step ahead of her.
"dad."
She said hello, took off her backpack, and held it in her hand.
Shen Zhijin's eyes froze on the backpack for a moment:
"Tangtang, this backpack... I don't think I've seen you carry it before?"
It looks a little old.
Shen Li explained:
"Oh, this is from the past. I forgot it at Uncle Wen's auto repair shop in Lincheng. He closed it some time ago and packed up his things. Then he found it and returned it to me. There are also some books and the like of."
Shen Zhijin asked:
"Is this important to you?"
Shen Li paused, and bent the corners of her lips at him:
"I can't say it, just keep it in mind."
That book can't be found, only this backpack is left now.
It's good to put it there.
What's more, there are still the few books that Wen Xiao gave her in it.
Shen Zhijin nodded knowingly.
He rarely asked about her past affairs, but he knew very well how important Wen Xiao and his auto repair shop were to her.
What's more, since she wanted to keep it, it proved that it was very precious to her.
Shen Li walked to the door of the bedroom, just when she opened the door, she remembered another thing, and asked back:
"By the way, Dad, I'm leaving for Hong Kong City the day after tomorrow. When will you go there?"
The horse race is coming soon, and there are many things that need to be handled by her personally.
In addition, she went over early because she wanted to spend more time with Mrs. Gu and the others.
But Shen Zhijin's time is not so free. There are many projects waiting for him in Xijing University and Fei Nuo Laboratory alone.
Sure enough, Shen Zhijin said:
"There is an industry seminar going on in early August, and I'll be there on the 3rd."
The 3rd is the last official race day of the Jockey Club, so it would be nice to be able to go on that day.
Shen Li nodded: "Okay. Then I'll wait for you in Hong Kong City."
After finishing speaking, Shen Li entered the bedroom.
She put the backpack down and stared at it for a while.
I don't know where the book is lost...
After thinking for a long time, there is still no answer.
She shook her head, put away her thoughts, took out a few books inside, put them on the bookshelf, and stuffed the backpack into the bottom of the cabinet.
…
On July 27th, Shen Li set off for Hong Kong City.
Gu Tinglan had already returned before her, and was in charge of many matters of the Jockey Club.
The Gu Family Mansion.
Shen Li and Gu Tinglan sat facing each other, and there were two documents on the table between them.
"The one on the left is the schedule of this year's Jockey Club. You can take a look at it first. It's basically the same as last year, but there are some changes in details." Gu Tinglan raised his hand, "The one on the right is the schedule of all participating horses in this year's Jockey Club. The summary of the information, those with the champion's face have been specially marked. After you have read it, if there is no problem, this can be distributed to all members of the Jockey Club."
Shen Li looked at the one on the left first.
She has read a lot of relevant materials before, and she has participated in a horse race meeting last year, so she is quite familiar with them, so it is easy to read at this time.
After reading it carefully, she picked up the one on the right.
Number 0001: Bright Moon.
This is Gu Tingyin's white horse, which has always occupied a serial number for many years.
She looked down.
Number 0002: Qingfeng.
