Chapter 699: Fate is no match for fate
"Classmate, how much does this professional English cost?"
"Five."
"Five? Big brother, you're pumping my hard-earned money, and others can sell it for two yuan at most. ”
"You get what you pay for, and things have to be seen in condition, you see that my books are all brand new, and there is not even a line in them. Put it in the school bookstore and give you a maximum of 8.5% off, or more than a dozen yuan. ”
……
In the midday sun, Books stood by a stall and bargained with people.
It's finally time to graduate and sell books.
Books were brand new, he almost never used his own books, and when it came to exams, he relied on the notes and small notes of the girls in the class. But he found that he was not much more competitive than the rest.
Those younger brothers and sisters who came to buy books didn't care whether there were black lines and red bars on the books, or whether there were crooked handwriting like turtles crawling. Many people may even like to fill a lot of their own books like this, because they will explore some traces left in the book with relish, like a magic apprentice in magic, and guess what kind of story happened during the four years of the senior or senior, rather than exploring the content of the book itself.
In the past four years, how many untold stories have happened in this university surrounded by mountains?
Under the July sun, Books couldn't help but be a little distracted when I received the three dollars handed over to others and handed a brand new book to others.
Four years is not a long time, nor is it short, but the senior year seems to have passed the fastest.
First-year freshmen have just arrived at CUHK and don't understand anything, and they are even afraid to go out shopping and ride a car once in a while.
When I was in the second grade, I was almost familiar with the environment around the school, and I could go in and out of the small Internet cafes and restaurants around the school, and I could go to the small video studio outside the school to watch the midnight show and watch the films that were not suitable for children.
When I was in my junior year, I mastered the heavenly cycle of birth, old age, sickness and death in CUHK, and there were more than a dozen mountains in a radius, mixing like a fish in water, and cultivating to the realm of Dacheng.
By the time I was in my senior year, I was completely familiar with the spleen and surname of the city of Changsha, and the streets and alleys were full of wolves, which can be said to have really unearthed the fun of this university and this city.
Four years, it turns out that it takes almost four years to really understand and truly integrate into the life of a city like Changsha.
But just when I really discovered the fun of the city, I had to leave again.
This is called joy and sorrow.
When watching Zhang Peng ESC win the championship during the winter vacation, Books still thought that a semester would be a long time, but now, it seems to be July in a blink of an eye.
In another ten days, this school will no longer be their world, and many familiar animals will step on the train to all parts of the country, and they may not see each other in the future.
There is only one CUPL national finals that have not yet begun. This seems to be the last thing Books will do when they stay at CUHK.
"Hey, this classmate, can this chemical system engineering be sold for a dollar?"
"A dollar? You're funny, aren't you? Books came back to his senses from a slight distraction, and wanted to say classmate, did you think you were collecting waste paper, but immediately said "Brother Da, if you really want it, I'll sell you for a dollar." ”
"Come on." Wu Yingda patted the books, "Let's go, it's all over." ”
"Guo Xixi is shouting and playing cards again?" Books' eyes lit up. Recently, a group of people are very obsessed with "fighting landlords", in fact, this fan "fighting landlords" is the same as the previous group of people obsessed with small games such as "Plants vs. Zombies", all of which are bursts of time. Because interstellar is definitely the biggest hobby of this group, but just like people who have been playing football will occasionally play basketball and do other sports, these playing cards and fascinating other small games are also a good spice for playing interstellar. Although you may feel bored after playing for a while, it is really exciting to play for a while. Now this group of people is very energetic to fight the landlord.
But when he saw the pile of books on the stall in front of him, he was a little embarrassed, "There are still so many books that have not been sold." ”
"That's not easy, it will help you get it done in a few minutes."
"Really?" Books looked at Wu Yingda suspiciously.
"Little case." Wu Yingda immediately raised his throat and shouted, "Jump the price, throw it away, buy it for a limited time, and share it for five cents each~"
"Five cents a copy?" Books jumped up when he heard this, and panicked to cover Wu Yingda's mouth, "Brother Da, what are you doing, I will lose all my money if you do this." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, just help your brothers and sisters, and help you be a gunman at night."
"Deal!"
***
"Haha, here it is, Da Ge, it's just right, three are missing one, fast, you can start, life is precious, we must cherish life, and we must devote our lives to unlimited service to the people."
As soon as Guo Xixian saw Wu Yingda pushing open the door and walking in, he immediately excitedly arranged the cards like a little sister, and shouted Wu Yingda to hurry up and take their places. Books who followed behind Wu Yingda was dumbfounded all of a sudden, and he saw that in addition to Guo Xixi and Zhang Peng, even ACUP was there. If Wu Yingda sat down all at once, he would have no share.
"Acup, what's wrong with you?" Wu Yingda was also a little stunned.
"Just come over and play, haha. Come on, don't waste your time. When ACUP said this, Books was a little anxious, "I'll come, I'll come." ”
"You just stay there." Guo Xixian immediately said with disdain, "At your level, you only have the share of abused vegetables." ”
"This can't be done, Da Ge, what should you do, I have a card to play so I don't sell books and was pulled over by you."
Hearing Books say this, Wu Yingda was embarrassed to think about it, so he gave up his position, "Okay, let you fight, I'll watch the news on the Internet." ”

Fight landlords.
Another saying at CUHK is that there are three to one. The person who gets a card can choose not to be a landlord, not to be a landlord, the next can take over, the next one does not do it, and then the next, to the last one no one to pick up rot in the last hand. The landlord has a bottom, a few more cards can be taken, the remaining three people are gathered to play the landlord a, as long as one of the other three people can run out of cards first, even if the fight wins, otherwise if the landlord first runs out of cards, the landlord wins.
It stands to reason that books have a strong memory, and playing this kind of card should be very strong. However, his memory is not proportional to his ability to count cards, which may be the reason why Books now has realized that he should choose a liberal arts major instead of a science major. His current level of interstellar play is very high, even if Zhang Peng and others don't help him, they can already dominate the online gunman industry. But in the previous few landlord duels, Books was the one who lost the most.
So Guo Xixian would despise his dishes at first, but now that he has finally gotten started, he really wants to turn over the salted fish, so that Guo Xixian can see how powerful he is.
……
"Holy! Guo Xixi: Do you have two fried ones? ”
"Damn, this hole card is too cool, isn't it?"
……
But this day's books cards are rotten mess, even made a few landlords, not the hole cards are useless at all, or a go out has not played much, was bombarded by people, directly stunned. It didn't take long for the other color of cards used as chips in front of the books door to lose out.
At this time, Books happened to draw the card that could decide whether to be a landlord or not. Wealth and danger seeking, if you don't look at it, you may not be able to support a few handfuls, so books asked for the surname and asked for the landlord. In this way, if you can win, you can win back a lot, and you won't hang up for the time being.
When the cards were drawn, Books could not help but feel a burst of ecstasy, with five blows and only one or two discarded cards. The bomb alone can be blown up.
"A seven."
"Big ghost."
casually played a waste card, and when he saw Guo Xi Xi directly throwing out a big ghost and pressing him all at once, Books was still secretly happy in his heart. decided to make Guo Xi smug first, throw two cards, and then blow her up completely with a bomb like a storm.
"Junko... I'm bombing too~ haha. ”
“……”
But what he didn't expect was that Guo Xixian directly threw out a big straight, and then there were only a few cards left in his hand, and when he threw a bomb, he saw Guo Xixiao smiled and threw out the remaining cards, which happened to be a bomb a little bigger than him.
A peerless deck of cards rotted in his hand, and at this moment, books suddenly felt that he was no match for fate.
The wind blew in through the open window, and the wind in Changsha in early July and summer seemed to be quietly walking on the ground, rustling. It seems that this is the first time that books have felt such a rumor from CUHK, but there may not be a next time in the future.
Books quietly thought of a lot of things for a while, Zhang Peng and Chen Ran would meet by chance thousands of miles away, but he was only a few hundred meters away from some people, separated by a few dormitory buildings, but he seemed to be entangled in some kind of spell, and he never met them. It's like a movie where the heroine finds that there will be a male protagonist in every photo she takes, but the two of them never see each other.
"Call, call."
A group of people excitedly stuffed the phone into the hands of the statue-like books, and helped books dial the phone number casually.
The phone went through quickly.
Books said mechanically, "Hey, in fact, I have three words that I have always wanted to say to you, and I am afraid that if I don't say it, I will not have a chance in the future..."
"Hello? You are...? ”
At this moment, although only three words came out of the microphone, he suddenly heard whose voice it was. He could barely hold the microphone, and no one thought that a random phone number would be answered by the person who wanted to see or couldn't see it like a magic spell.
……
Under the slightly drunk breeze with the smell of sunshine, Guo Xixi, Zhang Peng, Acup, Wu Yingda and others couldn't help but be in a daze.
This is a game that has been said in advance, and many animals have also played, and the loser casually dials the phone number of a girls' dormitory, and then says to the girls inside, in fact, I have three words that I have always wanted to say to you, and I am afraid that if I don't say it, I will not have a chance. Then when the girl on the other side was beating faster, she immediately said heavily, "I'm a pig." ”
But all the people present found that when Books finished the previous sentence, his whole person was completely quiet, and then everyone was surprised to hear it, Books said seriously into the phone, "I love you." ”
……
There was a long silence on the other side of the microphone, and Books' heart became empty, as if he was in a desert with no end in sight, but his eyes couldn't help but be filled with fog.
After saying those three words, Books was ready to silently hang up the phone. But at this time, everyone, including Books, suddenly heard the other end of the phone crying.
It was a cry mixed with laughter.
"Books, I love you too." In the microphone, there was another voice like this.
This sentence made the books with fog in his eyes become a stiff sculpture again.
"I found out it was you through the transfer records..., and then it took me a few more months to make sure I was wrong about you... I've been to your internet café and waited for you, but I haven't met you once... I thought you would never see you again after you graduated..."
"You went to me?" Books trembled, holding the microphone hard, and all the people present, all quiet, did not make a sound, in this room, there seemed to be only the sound of the breeze, and this phone, "Didn't they say you have a boyfriend?" ”
"The one in our hospital? That's just someone else's say, we're not together...", the voice on the other side said a little confused, "Where are you, are you leaving?" ”
At this moment, Books' tears slid down his face, and the microphone slipped unconsciously from his hand.
At this moment, no one who saw Books would have thought that he was a lewd animal whose computer was full of A-movies and had a golden bottle of plum on his back. From this moment, there is no trace of obscenity on him.
But he quickly picked up the microphone that was hanging by the long line and did not fall to the ground, "I'm stupid, and I haven't figured out whether to find a job or go to graduate school yet, so I probably won't leave." ”
