Section 1117 - Helping others
The schedule of the Chinese Hypnotism Master Exchange Conference is only three days, and the actual meeting is only one day.
On the first day of registration, the second day of the meeting, the third day of each back to their respective homes, each looking for their own mother, the guest room is only left until 12 o'clock at noon, postponed at their own expense, these schedules are printed on A4 paper and distributed to each participant.
Early in the morning, Dean Zhou was called by Li Bai to have breakfast, along with Granny Wang, who was three people when she came, and naturally there were three people when she went back.
No one wants to stay in Hujiang City longer, so it's better to go back early.
After breakfast, I checked out of the room one after another.
Li Bai picked up the car from the underground garage of the hotel, drove to the door of the hotel, and helped Dean Zhou and Granny Wang put their luggage into the trunk.
Da Ben was just about to set off, but Dean Zhou suddenly asked Li Bai to stop.
"Slow down!"
"Huh?"
Before Li Bai had time to have questions, he got the answer.
A foreigner was dragging his suitcase and looking around near the driveway exit of the hotel gate, seemingly waiting for a bus.
It was the special guest who attended the exchange yesterday, Professor Ekarabold Royce, an American master of hypnotism.
The headquarters of the organizer is in Beijing, so naturally there is no way to prepare a special car for this special guest in Hujiang City, but it is also very convenient to take a taxi in Hujiang City, whether it is to call a car with a mobile phone, or to ask a hotel to call a car, or by the way to take those who get off the car are very easy.
It's just that it's a little early, and I haven't seen a taxi coming for a while.
Dean Zhou asked Li Bai to slowly lean over, poked out half of his head from the window of the car, and took the initiative to greet him: "Professor Ikabode, are you waiting for a taxi?"
Ikabode smiled and responded, "Hello, Zhou, yes, I'm waiting for a taxi, are you guys going back?"
"Where are you going? I've got a spare seat here if it's convenient. ”
Dean Zhou doesn't mind being a favor.
"Is it convenient to get to Hongqiao Airport?"
Iqabod hesitated, he had been waiting here for almost ten minutes, but there was still no taxi coming.
"Convenient, get in the car!"
Dean Zhou responded without hesitation, that is, a matter of one foot on the accelerator.
Ikabod was a little surprised, and said, "Thank you so much, I'll pay for the fare." ”
After all, the take-off time of the plane will not wait for anyone, and it is more reassuring for him to arrive a little earlier.
Dean Zhou waved his hand and said heroically: "This is Huaxia, it hurts to talk about money, get in the car directly, it's free." ”
After putting the other party's luggage in the trunk, let Granny Wang sit in the passenger seat, and she and Ikabod sat in the back seat, and Daben started again.
"Thank you, Zhou, for your generosity, you Huaxia is such a hospitable country. ”
With the help of the other party, Ikabode naturally didn't mind saying a few more good words, GET to the national spirit of Dean Zhou and others.
Hospitality is met with enthusiasm in any country and nation, and it is a universal compliment, even in the miserly capitalist world.
"Whereever, there's a friend from afar, it's just a matter of making a gesture, Professor Icabod, are you planning to return to your home country next?"
There are two airports in Hujiang City, one is an international airport and a domestic airport, and the other is a purely domestic airport, and the destination of Ikabode's Hongqiao Airport is a domestic airport, but he is an American, and Dean Zhou plans to confirm his itinerary, don't go to the wrong airport, then you will have to delay the trip.
Because there are two airports, it happens from time to time that I run the wrong airport.
"No, no, there is another lecture in Shuangqing City, just tomorrow!"
Ikabode's itinerary is obviously not only in Hujiang City, probably to save up for a while, brush up in Huaxia to check in, so as not to run alone.
"Is there still time?"
Dean Zhou looked at his watch, and it was already 9:11 in the morning.
"It's almost twelve o'clock, the plane should be in time. ”
Ikabod also set off a little bit, not planning to waste more time in the middle.
"If you don't get stuck in traffic...... Next time, it's better to leave early. ”
Dean Zhou has heard more than once that the traffic in Hujiang City is congested, and sometimes driving is not even as fast as a bicycle.
However, along the way, there was a blockage, but I didn't step on the point of the morning and evening rush hour, and the scene of the ten-mile long street turning into a parking lot has not really been experienced.
"Yes, is that so? Thanks for the reminder! I'll pay attention next time. ”
Icabode paused as he saw the apparently slowing traffic outside, and realized that he seemed to be underestimating the state of traffic in this cosmopolitan city.
Dean Zhou patted Li Bai's backrest and said, "At eleven o'clock, can you get to the airport?"
He and Granny Wang went back to Huxi City, but it was not at all, and it didn't matter if they arrived in the afternoon, but looking at the current traffic situation, this foreign guest might have to hurry.
The plane is almost 12 o'clock, and the security check at 11 o'clock is basically stepping on the line, and it will not be able to catch the plane if it is a little later.
"Eleven o'clock? It should be fine! At least it won't be blocked for an hour, right?"
Li Bai looked at the navigation turned on the mobile phone, many road sections have shown a busy red warning state, and the road in front of Daben is also a yellow warning, although there is no blockage to die or live, one Buddha out of the body, two Buddhas ascend to heaven, but it may also become congested at any time.
It's the end of the morning rush hour, and traffic should be back to normal around 10 o'clock at most.
It's less than an hour from Hongqiao Airport, so you can get there in 10 minutes with a few more feet on the accelerator, the speed limit, and a few fewer traffic lights.
The real situation is indeed as Li Bai said, after running slowly with the traffic for about ten minutes, the speed of the car finally increased again, and encountered several brief crowds on the way, and finally arrived at Hongqiao Airport at 10:50.
Carrying his luggage out of the car, Ikabode thanked Li Bai and Dean Zhou again.
Before dragging his luggage and leaving, he didn't forget to whisper in front of Li Bai and asked, "Li, can you tell me, did you hypnotize me yesterday and yesterday?"
Ikabode has always had doubts in his heart, but in front of Dean Zhou, it is not easy to say, and it was not until the end that he finally asked.
Li Bai still said honestly: "Uh! My appetite is indeed so big!"
It's not that there is a grudge, one morning and one afternoon, he can't hypnotize each other twice in a row, Professor Ikabold is also a master of hypnotism, if you calm down and review carefully, it should be easy to notice the abnormality.
Solving at this time is naturally expected.
"Huh!?"
Ikadebo looked like he had seen a ghost, but he muttered to himself, "So that's it, so it's like this!"
After getting Li Bai's affirmative answer, some doubts in his heart were finally solved, he pulled his luggage and walked towards the airport hall with some distraction.
"Xiao Li, what did you tell him?"
Seeing that Ikabode suddenly became strange, Dean Zhou, who returned to the car, frowned.
Li Bai sat in the driver's seat, started again, and said: "I didn't say anything, he just asked me if I used hypnotism at breakfast yesterday, and I said no, dean, whether it is useful or not, you should know." ”
"Of course not!"
Dean Zhou's answer was the same as Li Bai's, but he still couldn't figure it out, and Ikabold was still entangled in this question.
Could it be that eating a meal can still hurt people's hearts?
However, as a Chinese person, it is naturally difficult to understand why foreigners are frightened by eating.
Gluttony is known as one of the seven deadly sins in Europe and the United States, but in China, there are not many derogatory terms.
Those who can eat are called gluttons, those who can eat are called foodies, and those who are greedy are called gluttons, no matter what they can put into their mouths, they are called gluttons, and there seems to be no negative evaluation.
It's not good to be able to eat and be able to eat more and grow more meat.
"Dean, I don't have any other itinerary! I went back to Huxi City directly. ”
Li Bai re-set the navigation and found the way from Hongqiao Airport in Hujiang City to the main urban area of Huxi City.
"No, let's go back!"
Although it was a little delayed, Dean Zhou didn't feel that it was delayed much.
