Chapter VIII

During the summer vacation, most of the students went home. Xia, Gao Niu B and Xiao Xue often slept in our school. Qin Yibin, a fellow countryman and senior student, gave me an empty dormitory key and we slept in it.

One morning, several of us were sleeping soundly. In a dream, the school security office knocked on the door to check. It was teacher lvxiaoping (in charge of student work). He first called the school guard. Because the school guard was my friend, I organized a movie at the school to let them guard the door, which gave them a lot of benefits. The school guard was unwilling to interfere with me and ignored him. This was what the school guard told me afterwards.

The school security office took us to the security office. Gao Niu B and Xiao Xue reported other people's names as usual. Xia had a suitcase, all of which were magic props. He had an Anhui Township certificate, saying it was a magician. Please go to the office for convenience. The school security office told me that the beggars in Anhui also had proof and let us go.

Xia started her old profession, taught me magic, and opened the first magic training class with me. She printed a stack of paper advertisements and posted them on the campus. In addition to us at Nanjing University, there were also Nanshi, Hehai, Southeast, etc. even a girl named Caiyan from Nanshi came to learn magic. I took her to a movie. She was not good-looking, a little plump, but very feminine.

We also printed the words of the magic class on our clothes. My college graduation photo, the 2-inch black-and-white photo in white, and the mirror waterstop netizen said that the sharp edges and corners were actually green, with the red words of the magic class printed on it.

Xia has a bottle of water. It says what medicine it is. It makes me smell it. I feel dizzy. It is harmful.

At the stall, Gao Niu B said to Yang, "Xuming doesn't know we work for him." Later, I wondered if it was me. This stall is for testing me.

One night, when Lin Zixiang and I were late (just in my senior year), we fell down on the bed in my dormitory. In summer, we didn't use quilts. I put a bench beside the bed. The student bed was not wide. Lin and I just lay down. My roommate wouldn't let us. I said, "my friend can't sleep in my bed all night?"? "My roommates are determined not to let me go. They exclude people from society. They don't have as much contact as I do. They are also a little afraid. Linzixiang had to leave.

Hooligans also have three great pleasures in life. In Xia's words, they are: rely on B, pinch their feet and pull out their ears:) he emphasizes that rely on B is the first:)

Xia was about to leave. Gao Niu B and I, two "apprentices", saw him off. We bought some vegetables at a restaurant at the central gate bus station and brought back some wine. We took the restaurant bowl and gave a deposit of 2 yuan. The next day, I went to return the bowl, but I didn't return the deposit. I was young and vigorous. The hotel called the police. The police just called me last time. I argued that it was my brother who played chess and I was a college student. Maybe my performance was lifelike. The police believed me and let me go. Of course, I don't want the 2 yuan deposit anymore.

It's a bit strange. I was assigned to Zhenjiang (provincial agricultural means of production), but Xia found my company's phone number and address. In the summer of 1991, I came to my company to find me. I started to check in with my company, but I didn't know how to get there. He called me first and said he wouldn't go up on the third floor. He was jealous of "3" and waited downstairs for me to get off work. I was uncomfortable and took it as a trouble. When I went downstairs, I envied Wang Zhengping, my colleague downstairs, No trouble. I took Xia to the dormitory, then went to a small restaurant on Nanmen Street for a drink, took him to a bus stop at dashikou, and he went to the railway station.

The next afternoon, when I was at work, Xia called and said that the railway station police station had investigated him. He had long hair at that time (he seemed to have long hair all the time). He took the guitar I gave him when I left and asked me to prove to him that it was my master. Then I called the police. The police asked me, and I said, "master, master, master, I learned magic from him." Because I was a work phone, the police let him go. After a while, Xia called again to thank me for using a public phone.
