He came from the bell tonight

It was noon when the train arrived at Chaowen City, and the rare good weather burned everything brightly.

A few chattering young people gathered around the exit to discuss where to go first, and Frank squatted on the ground drinking.

Seeing Chen Wangyu standing alone on the edge, Su Ling asked, "Don't you want to go together?"

Chen Wangyu smiled, still with that shy look: "A friend is here to pick me up, so I'm leaving first."

After saying goodbye to everyone quickly, he left quickly.

Suling saw a bronze-skinned young man stop Chen Wangyu not far away, and they left together.For some reason, he always felt that Chen Wangyu's body movements seemed to repel him very much.

"Go to the library church." Xiao Huaiyan's voice was lazy and hoarse.He just woke up and didn't bother to listen to Xizi's rambling, it was so noisy.

The full name of the library church he mentioned is Jacob St. Mary's Church. It is one of the most famous buildings in Chaowen City, and it is not far from the station.This church has been featured in many classic movies and literary works, so it has become a must-see for pilgrims.

Frank was turned away by the gatekeeper because of his drunken breath, and Ao Lai had to happily sit with him on the ground at the door, indistinguishable from the whole row of bums basking in the sun next to him.

The church is divided into east and west sides, the west side is used for worship, and the east side is connected to the ruins of the small half of the castle.

As soon as they entered the church, Ou Chuchu, Xi Zidu, Lian Xiao, and Yun Qing had dispersed to every corner, taking pictures and sleeping.

"An ancient war 5000 years ago destroyed the castle, and later the castle owner's daughter transformed it into a library." Xiao Huaiyan led Suling up the spiral wooden steps, and the white walls hung some paintings.

When the black boots pressed against the stairs, the sound of "creaking" broke the silence.

Su Ling observed those old paintings, and the heavy history was cut into vivid pictures.Some are ink and wash, some are oil paintings, which truly record the changes of this church.

It also depicts the mutual friendship and hatred within human beings.

The wooden steps gradually turned into older stone steps, and the fragrance of ink gradually became stronger.After stepping up the steps, the spectacular and gorgeous glazed windows appeared in front of you.Those colored fluorescent lights flowed in the small grids one by one, and then formed the windows in all directions.

Sunlight streams through the panes, elongating the shadows of the bookshelves.

Xiao Huaiyan stopped, a horizontal line was drawn in front of him, and a sign was hung - "Tourists stop".

The administrator's small desk was placed inside the cordon, and no one was there, so he must have gone somewhere to be lazy.

He was thinking about how to hide the sign when he saw Su Ling walk in without seeing anything.The thread fell to the ground as if there was nothing there.

The entire wall of books is full of well-maintained tomes, with exquisite embroidery shining on the hard shell.Those ancient words were like some kind of magical power, causing waves in Su Ling's heart.

Su Ling shuttled slowly among the bookshelves, and suddenly heard a strange voice shouting "Who's there?"

The patrolling administrator wandered around twice with a flashlight, but found nothing unusual.

At a corner he had never passed, a book was pushed back to its original place just as it was about to fall.

Su Ling was shrouded by Xiao Huaiyan's figure, and the two stuck close together, hiding in the shadow of the bookshelf.

Xiao Huaiyan grabbed Su Ling's wrist with one hand, put one hand on top of his head, lowered his head slightly, and signaled him to keep quiet.

The warm breath flowed through the narrow gap, blowing the pages of the book.

Su Ling raised his eyes slightly, and the broken hair on his forehead was just about to touch the man's lips.

Peach Blossom Eyes are hazy and vague, and gradually something else is added to them.

Just when those fine pieces were about to float out of the air, the stained glass window behind Xiao Huaiyan was opened from the outside.

Xi Zidu and Lian Xiao's heads rushed in: "Wow, it's so beautiful here!!!"

The window was so big that not only the head came in, but even the feet came in from the terrace outside.

Ou Chuchu grabbed the camera, and murmured to Yunqing: "Is it really appropriate for us to enter the restricted area from the employee elevator, will we not be caught? Ah, who is scanning my eyes!"

White light balls flew around the faces of several people. The old administrator had a gloomy face. From his eyes, it could be seen that countless words of greeting were brewing.

Two bionic robots stood beside him, doing face recognition.

Xiao Huaiyan and Su Ling looked at each other, and said decisively, "Run!"

Glittering, the fragrance of books swirls.Vitality and sunshine in the daytime collided suddenly and shattered to the ground.In the wild chase, the administrator was so angry that he cursed: "Are young people nowadays really qualified?"

"Here! Elevator!" Yun Qing shouted at the end of the terrace.

Five people were squeezed into the originally narrow double elevator.Then Lian Xiao started his run-up from ten meters away, and crashed in the moment the door was closed.

"You're pressing my hand!" Xizi screamed.

Su Ling was so caught off guard that he bumped hard into Xiao Huaiyan's chest.A hand wrapped around his waist, lifting it slightly.

However, five seconds after the elevator descended, it stopped on the first floor. As soon as it was opened, several electric batons were waiting outside.

……

Under the bright sunlight, in front of the main entrance of Jacob St. Mary's Church, six people lined up and stood obediently.

The administrator uncle tapped Lian Xiao's knee socket with a cane, and heard a scream without any surprise.

"...Imperial College, right?" The security captain checked the credentials on the holographic terminal and verified them one by one.

The uncle sneered: "I don't care what college you are in, even if the headmaster comes here in person, you have to stand for me! If you can do it, don't be afraid to hang you on the bulletin board. See, right there, Not only the residents of Chaowen City, but all interstellar travelers can see it!"

Su Ling turned his head and saw the holographic projection bar on the mottled wall.There should be quite a few people with the same behavior, all of them were photographed, circled with red lines, and marked with "deeds".

Frank got up from the hot ass floor, leaned up to take a look with drunken eyes.

Ao Lai tilted his head, raised his hand and said, "I want to take a picture like this too!"

The old, dazed old man only saw how suddenly there were two lying next to him, and couldn't help shouting: "Get back and stand there, don't move!"

Frank, who had never been so angry before, seemed to lose control of his feet, and slowly moved to the side of the queue.

The hot white light is baking, and the flash can blind the eyes.

Who knew that there was something wrong with the camera terminal used here, and in the end it turned out to be an antique film camera—it was worth it.

Xiao Huaiyan boldly suggested: "Why don't you let us make a copy?"

Received an angry glare from the old man.

But in the end, I made a copy, found a self-service machine on the spot to print, and each person had a copy——

Nothing else, the photography level of the administrator is really good, the composition, the lighting, it is as good as refined.

When it was the last one, the self-service machine suddenly broke down.Su Ling took out the paper and found that only his and Xiao Huaiyan's heads were vaguely printed on the right side.

It looked like a standard group photo, with two young and handsome faces leaning together.One is careless and reveals a noble and sharp heart, while the other is calm and quiet, like the cold moonlight.The former one hooked his lips slightly, and turned his head in the direction of the latter one.

Su Ling looked at it for a few seconds, then put it in his pocket under the sound of urging.

The cathedral was originally located in the downtown area, especially when the sun gradually sank, the streets became bustling.

Xiao Huaiyan was holding a cotton candy that looked like a cloud, and as soon as he turned around, he found that Su Ling had disappeared.He frowned and hurriedly looked for it. He searched for several shops but didn't see half a shadow.

The more anxious he was, the more he got nothing.

Among the vast crowd, he was a little lost.

...Did he lose Suling again?

After finally asking one after another, the owner of the bookstore at the end of the street saw him and reluctantly gave him directions: "Just now he was flipping through a new book that was boundless and fallen, and a lady came to talk to him. Seeing that he likes it, she said she would Take him to meet the author. Tsk tsk, this kind of scam is really, it sounds like it's real... Hey, what are you looking at me for? There are liars, I think he looks so good-"

Xizi turned pale with shock: "What?! My God, Suling won't be cheated away by others, right?"

Ou Chuchu hurriedly said: "Let's go, go and find it! Hey, why is the boss missing!"

Just as they were looking for Suling all over the street, Suling turned into a quiet neighborhood in the midst of the hustle and bustle.The sweet-scented osmanthus rustled from the branches and stuck to the shoulders.

"What would you like to drink?" The lady who invited him took off her hat, revealing a gentle and sweet face.She looks very young and beautiful, with a generous and clear smile, at least much younger than her actual age.

There is a small blackboard at the entrance of the coffee shop, and today's tea is handwritten.

Su Ling hesitated for a moment, then said, "My friend is still waiting for me."

"Oh, I'm being abrupt, you come with me." She said with a smile, turned around and picked up the over-long skirt, and led Su Ling through the long corridor and into a courtyard.

The yard faces the spacious river and is full of sweet-scented osmanthus.There was a long table in the shade, and a man in a purple shirt was flipping through a book.He looked tall and handsome, with a special sparkle in his eyes, and a pair of long legs draped casually.

"I have brought guests," said the lady.

The man reading the book got up immediately, opened the stool with a smile on his face, invited his wife to sit down, and brought the peeled pine nuts and freshly brewed tea.

After all this was done, he noticed Su Ling, and his eyes lit up suddenly: "Are you... a humanoid weapon?"

"You lost your bet," Madam said, "the old star also has guests from far away. He is still your book fan. I invite him to get a new collection of poems."

Su Ling explained: "I took it for my friend. He has collected a lot of your works."

Otherwise, the bookcase would not be filled with signed books of boundless fallen wood.

"Then your friend is really discerning," the man said handsomely, took a book from the pile of books on the table, and paused after signing halfway, "That's right, can I ask if you have a contract?"

Su Ling nodded.

"That's great. Let me ask you a question. If you are free, you can come to our house. I have something I want you to try."

Su Ling hesitated a little.The invitation between strangers was too blunt, but he and the lady looked very respectable and not bad people.

Su Ling's gaze suddenly paused.The lady was looking sideways at the tall sycamore tree, and the curvature of her beautiful side face had a feeling of deja vu.

No, he did.

It is the girl on the mottled wall of the mansion by the lake in Syracuse.

It was the rainy night on Neptune, the mural on the entire side of the building, the woman looking back.

There is also the yellowed photo in the pocket watch, the young lover is gentle and cozy.

"You are—" Su Ling was taken aback.

"He's not available."

A chilly voice came from behind.

Xiao Huaiyan did not know when he went around the river, and appeared under the osmanthus rain along the cobblestone path.

And Ou Chuchu, Xizi and Lian Xiao almost screamed and blocked Xiao Huaiyan immediately.

"Uncle Xiao Xia, I haven't got the autograph yet!!!"

The author has something to say:

Going home, of course I have to meet my parents——
