There are fish in Ming Nan

At dusk, Su Qian struggled to open his eyes, the bright sunlight flowed with the river beside him, and he himself was branded on the exposed rock surface, no different from a piece of dried mackerel.He paused for a while, then looked down, maybe he was lucky this time, his clothes and pants were in order, and there was a small metal button pinned to his left chest, which was the school badge of Wanyang University.

Wanyang is a very old city. It is located in the north of Wanhe River.Although it is difficult to keep up with the times today except for the administration slogan, there is a university here that is enough to make the whole city proud.

Su Qian stood up, frowned and looked at Wanhe, who had a rather unpleasant smell, and applauded in his heart for avoiding tomorrow's local headlines as "Wan's college student's debts were not paid and his corpse was exposed on the river bank".

Something in his trouser pocket suddenly shook. He was very surprised that his broken mobile phone was still charged. He took it out and saw a hysterical message from his buddy Dai Yang on the screen: "Bookmark! You are still alive!" Where are you drunk and dreaming?! Come back to class, roll call!!!!!!!!!"

Su Qian looked at the row of exclamation marks and felt that he had not educated his friends enough. How could he not change his face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him?There is nothing to panic about a little class roll call.

However, just as he typed "Answer me..." in the dialog box, the screen of the phone shook, and it automatically shut down when it ran out of power.

Fortunately, this place is not far from their school. He bought a pancake for five yuan on the side of the road and ate it. When he passed the east gate of the school, he saw the sunset on the Wan River like blood. There were many hawkers stationed on the river beach Being surrounded, it seems that some kind of construction team has come.

Su Qian's eyebrows twitched, but he turned around and entered the school.

Evening classes are mostly electives, and there are many students who don't pay much attention to them. Su Qian mixed in the crowd and walked slowly to the teaching building. With a vague memory of the timetable, he walked to a large classroom on the top floor. Sure enough, he saw at the back door Dai Yang sneakily gestured at him inside.

This elective course seemed to be taking for the first time, but looking at the auditorium with more than two hundred people, how could it be discovered without him?

Su Qian reached out and pulled the handle of the rear door, but he didn't pull it.Dai Yang shrugged inwardly, expressing his helplessness.

Fine.He rolled his eyes, walked to the front door, and swaggered in.The teacher's voice on the podium suddenly stopped, and Su Qian looked over subconsciously, only to see a young man in formal attire also looking at his face.

This teacher looks familiar, Su Qian thought, he should have seen it somewhere in the school.It's just that at such a young age, most of the time when I see him, I think he is a graduate student or something.

Most of the young teachers are thin-skinned. It's not good for him to be late for the first time. Su Qian thought about it, nodded at the teacher and said, "Sorry, I'm a little late for something."

The teacher still had a straight face, with no expression on his face, and slowly said: "Like other students, record at the door and explain the name of your grade and class."

Su Qian:? ? ?

Only then did he realize that there was a recording device on an empty table at the door. He could only walk over with hundreds of gazes, and said with an expression and tone as if he was constipated: "Su Qian, junior civil engineer class one."

The teacher seemed to pause slightly after hearing the name.

Su Qian walked back uncomfortably, unaware that several girls were talking softly: "There are also handsome guys in this major? It's completely at the school level!"

"Don't mention it, I heard that Su Qian is the only good-looking one in their entire academy!"

"Tsk tsk, it looks good wearing slippers and holding pancakes..."

Dai Yang hooked his hands, moved a seat in, and let Su Qian sit down: "Do you know why my buddy called you here? This teacher will let everyone record before entering the door every class, and automatically compare it with the previous audio." Yes, if you are late, if you don’t arrive, find someone to replace you, and if you find out, you will fail the course and retake the course.”

When he said the last sentence, he made a gesture of wiping his neck with his hands, and Su Qian turned pale with shock: "Isn't this an elective?"

"Yeah, I chose it based on the name of the course, "Aesthetic Appreciation". I thought it was a gentle and kind young lady attending the class. Who would have thought that such an old devil would come here."

"Mr. Zhong is so old!" A girl in the front row turned around, angrily, "He is a teacher of music, but he became an associate professor at such a young age. I heard that the principal asked him to open a course for the whole school. Electives! How many people are not selected, and you are still picking and choosing!"

With the pancake in his mouth, Su Qian glanced painfully at the girls who accounted for more than [-]% of the classroom, and then turned back to the girl in the front seat, "Please tell me, what is the name of your male god?"

When I go back, I must stab the villain and curse him.

"He is Zhong Yue!" The girl was really surprised, "Handsome Su, do you really not know or are you just pretending to be stupid?"

Su Qian thought it would be good for me to pretend that I didn't know him, but out of his life creed of not fussing with girls, he just smiled and nodded, and let it go perfunctorily.

There are a few scattered blackboard writing on the blackboard, the writing is quite beautiful, the shirt and tie are meticulously dressed, and even the white cuffs are just a little bit longer than a suit jacket, wrapping the wrist. He is an elite cultural person at first glance.

"Cultural man" looks unsmiling, but his voice is not cold and ascetic. It sounds very gentle, with just the right amount of deepness. It is easy to understand why so many girls like it, even if Wittgenstein's "Aesthetic Lectures" is not very lively and interesting.

"...Whether it is the aesthetic principles constructed by Langfeld from a purely psychological point of view, or the standard after the combination of Dufheiner and art, it is undeniable that you are not very listened to."

Someone laughed lowly.

"...so let's enjoy a movie." Zhong Yue walked to the edge of the podium, raised his hand and turned off the light, ""Sparse Star", a French horror film in the 70s, from its music, pictures and In the narrative, you may get your own insights."

The whole classroom was commotion in the dark, it was difficult for the young professor to stand in front of Lan Yingying's projection and still look slender and elegant.

Dai Yang covered his chest: "I don't want to watch horror movies!"

Su Qian was very indifferent: "How old are you, are you still afraid of ghosts?"

The broadcast on the screen over there has already started, and the whole classroom held its breath and quickly entered the state.

Dai Yang shook his head: "No and no. You know, I'm hurt by the scene. Once I'm in this gloomy and dark environment, it's easy to think of me, who unfortunately died tragically yesterday."

"Fatty is dead?" Su Qian was taken aback.He just didn't return home for a day and a night, what else happened that he didn't know about?

Dai Yang let out a long breath, and wiped the hot tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands: "It seems that my pets don't always live long, whether it's a parrot, a rabbit, or a hamster."

Su Qian's facial muscles twitched: "Wow, what a pity. Benefactor, you have created too much killing karma. It's hard to explain when you go down to see the King of Hades in the future. It's better to let the poor monk save you for you, so that Fatty can go to the west as soon as possible. ..."

Before the word "Elysium" came out, Dai Yang had already put a small water tank on the table: "Bookmark, come and meet Dad's new son."

In the transparent water tank, a dark green turtle was lying motionless, not much bigger than a quail egg.

Su Qian: "..."

"According to the logic, it should live longer than me." Dai Yang thoughtfully, "But since it's my pet, don't break the rules, so let's call it Pangpang."

Su Qian stared at the not fat tortoise, feeling something was wrong.

Just at this moment, a figure in fluttering white clothes appeared on the screen. Although it was only a distant view, it also aroused a burst of exclamation.

Su Qian heard Fatty say lazily: "It's so noisy."

really.

He looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and Dai Yang didn't notice anything unusual at all, so he continued to stare at the reptile. After 10 minutes, he asked, "What the hell are you?"

Pangpang remained motionless, even a little overwhelmed: "It's you."

What do you mean?

Dai Yang was immersed in the movie and couldn't extricate himself, Su Qian slapped him on the shoulder: "Where did you buy this turtle?"

"It's by the Wanhe River. When I went out for a walk today, I saw someone selling it, so I took one with me."

Su Qian's eyelids twitched: "Why did your old man fall in love with this one at a glance?"

"Aren't you out of your mind?" Dai Yang stretched out his hand to probe his forehead, "When I went there, I saw several turtles lying on the fat back in that pot of muddy water, and I was immediately attracted by it. I was moved by the image of enduring humiliation and being worthy of great responsibility, so I was so angry that I was...for the turtle, so I spent a lot of money and took out a huge sum of five yuan to buy it back!"

"Oh." Su Qian was unmoved by his exaggerated performance.

"Oh your sister!"

Su Qian shook his head, thinking that he might not know if you bought an ancestor back.

Pangpang stretched his limbs and head from the shell a little reservedly, and said to Su Qian: "You are quite right."

A hand stretched out from the side, and tapped lightly on the table with curled fingers.

Although Su Qian wasn't in the mood to watch the horror movie, he was somewhat taken aback by the eerie music. He turned his head and saw their handsome teacher standing beside him.

Pang Pang instantly retracted all his parts exposed to the air into the shell.

Associate Professor Zhong said solemnly: "Be quiet, don't disturb other students enjoying the movie."

"Also, student Su, come with me."

Su Qian is very puzzled, there is such a teacher in the university who grabs students who are a few minutes late, it is a wonder in the world, and their school ethos is very informal, this teacher who seems to be quite famous should not be like this Harsh is right.

He followed Zhong Yue to the corridor outside. This teaching building is circular, so its number on the campus map is artificially ignored, and people in the world call it "Building 0".In the middle is a large patio, under which an artificial lake was dug. There are many green trees, red flowers, stone benches and few street lamps. Li fed mosquitoes on his body, lingering and refusing to give up, and when he went back and looked in the mirror, he couldn't tell whether the red neck was a hickey or a mosquito bag.

"Teacher, I didn't mean to be late today. It's because something happened before..." Su Qian was a little stuck in the middle of the sentence. He was wearing sandals and slippers, and he said that he was late for work from the internship. Zhong Yue's brain was struck by lightning. Will believe, "...that, don't take it as an example! I will be a senior next year, and I don't have enough credits for elective courses, so don't fail my course!"

Zhong Yue leaned against the railing, quietly waiting for him to finish speaking, then raised his eyelids, and said three words: "Is the injury healed?"

Su Qian didn't react: "...Huh?"

Zhong Yue took out his mobile phone from nowhere, swiped open the lock screen, called up the photo album, flipped through it, then enlarged a picture, and turned it over to show Su Qian.

It was a very close-up.

In the center of the picture is a glass fish tank, and the lower part is almost a circle, with a circle of folds like lotus leaves on the edge, which is delicate and lovely.The clear water in it was no more than half a tank, and there were two clusters of slender green aquatic plants at the bottom. Su Qian identified them. They were a kind of aquatic plants native to America, called long-leaf nine-crowns.

But what shocked him was not this inexplicable attention to detail, but a small black fish protruding from between the two tufts of aquatic plants.

The species of that fish is unclear, its tail is so thin and transparent, it spreads out like a small fan like lace; but its body is not the naive and round shape of ordinary goldfish, but rather slender.The background of the picture is the sunlight coming in directly from the window, together with the clear water, it makes people feel a strange feeling, as if they can see the bones of this small fish.

It sank to the bottom of the water. Although the picture is still, it can be seen that it is a gesture of drifting with the current, not swimming.

If you look more carefully, you will find that there is a little inconspicuous gap on one side of its tail, which should be due to an injury.

Su Qian laughed dryly: "Mr. Zhong, is this your family's fish? It's pretty good."

Zhong Yue was silent for two seconds: "Yes."

Su Qian subconsciously looked down at his legs.He was wearing a pair of very old-fashioned shorts. His calf to ankle was normal, and there were no visible injuries.

But he was still in a cold sweat—because he was the fish in the photo.

Only then did he realize why he thought Zhong Yue looked familiar.

That day, through the lens-like water waves and the fish tank, he saw the silhouette of this man with tightly pursed lips.At that time, Zhong Yue stood across the living room from him, looked down at the phone screen for a while, and then looked up at the fish tank placed on the wide bay window from a distance.

And the next moment, taking advantage of the moment when Zhong Yue turned his head, Su Qian turned back into a human body with a "swish", and ran away at the speed of light.
