In the library, noise is prohibited

At eight o'clock in the morning, the library of University A was quiet, and there were only two or three students sitting in the self-study area.

Chao Sheng was sleepy. He covered his head with his coat to block the light above him, and then lay down on half of his body, preparing to catch up on sleep.

The automatic sensor door of the library opened, and then Chao Sheng heard a familiar male voice calling himself not far away: "Duan Duan!"

Chao Sheng, who was buried under his coat, couldn't help frowning. He didn't have time to open his eyes, so he immediately lifted his clothes and raised his body, making a gesture of silence in the direction of the voice.

"Oh, I didn't see anyone here." The boy glanced at the self-study area and quickly lowered his voice, "Have you had breakfast? If you haven't, accompany me to class. I'll buy soup dumplings on the way."

"Too much oil, don't eat it." Chao Sheng covered his eyes, slowly adapting to the dazzling white light from between his fingers.

"Then what do you want to eat? I invite you."

Chao Sheng waved at him impatiently, "Hurry up, I won't go, if you want to accompany the class, go find your girlfriend."

"She also has class in the morning. Hey, come on, anyway, you're not on duty today, and I'm too boring to listen to English class by myself." Saying this, the boy went around the front desk, grabbed Chao Sheng's arm, and forced him out of the classroom. Pull up on the seat.

"I'm so annoying to you... Wait for me to send a text message and tell my colleagues about it." Unable to hold back the other party's recalcitrance, Chao Sheng had no choice but to agree, put on his coat and followed him out of the library.

After walking out of the sensor door, Chao Sheng subconsciously turned his head to look at the glass, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Lin Yao, wait a minute." Chao Sheng turned back and moved to the glass door.

"what happened?"

Chao Sheng cursed softly, pointed at the glass door and said, "It was torn apart again."

"what?"

"I posted the sign here."

Lin Yao didn't take it seriously: "What's the big deal, you can write another one."

"But there are already a lot, a lot." Chao Sheng shook his head in disbelief, "Who is so free and has nothing to do... just tearing up the library's slogans for fun."

"In the school, outsiders often bring children for a walk. The brats are playing tricks." Lin Yao said, turned and walked down the steps disinterestedly.

"I've posted it so high..." Chao Sheng muttered, and quickened his pace to keep up with him.

After eating wontons at the morning market outside University A, the two walked unhurriedly towards the teaching building. Lin Yao looked at the timetable halfway, only to realize that he remembered the wrong classroom, and hurried to another direction.By the time they reached the lecture theater, panting, five minutes had passed since the bell rang.

Lin Yao led Chao Sheng down the steps from the back door and sat in the last row of the crowd.

"Is this the English teacher?" Chao Sheng asked him in a low voice.

Although he graduated from high school early and stopped studying after that, when it comes to English class, Chaosheng is still full of resistance.Fortunately, the teacher on the stage looked very young, so he shouldn't be the type with strict classroom discipline.

Before Chao Sheng took a closer look at the English teacher's face, the other party's eyes had already fallen on him.

"You two are late." The man's voice was mellow and a little careless.The classroom was suddenly quiet for a moment, and he then said slowly: "Come over and tell me the reason after class."

"I'm sorry teacher, we went to the wrong classroom just now." Lin Yao explained without thinking.

The man originally looked down at the lesson plan, but when he heard Lin Yao's abrupt voice, he raised his head and asked him, "Didn't I say 'come over after class'?"

Obviously the teacher's tone was very calm, but a trace of fear suddenly appeared in Chao Sheng's heart.He subconsciously looked up and saw the man's facial features clearly.A pair of gold-rimmed round glasses are worn on the bridge of the tall nose, giving people a sense of intimacy, while the eyebrows and eyes behind the lenses are slightly sharp and full of heroism.The lips are thin and seem to have an unquestionable arrogance.

Lin Yao apologized softly.

The man withdrew his gaze, ignored him, and turned to ask other students, "Did you finish Unit Five last class?"

After getting the answer, he stepped off the podium to check the students' notes, and then he found that Chaosheng's desk was clean.

"Are you late for class and still don't bring your books?"

Suddenly being single-handedly accused by the teacher, Chao Sheng was startled and raised his head to glance at him.

If it is found out that he is not a student in the class, I don't know if there will be any troublesome consequences... Chao Sheng bowed his head silently, and Lin Yao also pushed his book between the two desks at this time.

Fortunately, the teacher just stood beside him for a while, didn't say anything more, and returned to the podium to start today's lecture.

Chao Sheng thought he had escaped a catastrophe, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.The teacher showed the slides to give a lecture, and he and Lin Yao quietly watched the mobile game strategy below.

However, not long after, Chao Sheng was called out by the teacher again. The other party didn't know his name, so he used "the one who didn't bring the book" to refer to him.

"Please tell me the answers to the first five questions of the Gestalt."

Chao Sheng stood up reluctantly, stared down at the pages of the book in English, and asked Lin Yao in a low voice, "Where is the Gestalt?"

Lin Yao quickly pointed it out to him.

"You didn't fucking write it..." Chao Sheng scolded him in a low voice.

Chao Sheng didn't answer for a long time, and the students in the front row turned their heads one after another, focusing on him in unison.Lin Yao opened his mouth and was about to give him a hint, but the teacher on the stage motioned for silence with his eyes.

All the cloze exercises in the book were filled in the blanks. Chao Sheng couldn't read the options randomly like he did in high school, and he didn't know how to pronounce many words in brackets correctly.

The air in the classroom was condensed, everyone waited quietly for him to answer the question, Chaosheng lowered his head in embarrassment, his ears turned red.

"I didn't write it down." Chao Sheng couldn't stand the prolonged awkward atmosphere, so he finally had to answer truthfully.

The teacher stared at him, suddenly sneered, and said, "I'm late for class, I don't bring books, and I don't do class exercises. Are you here to perfuse me?"

Being criticized by the teacher like this, Chao Sheng couldn't refute it, so he could only bow his head and slander silently: I am the one accompanying the class, so I am not your student...

"Just stand and listen." The man left a sentence and stopped looking at him.

Damn... Chao Sheng cursed angrily and helplessly in his heart.

He finished the second half of class standing up, and the teacher told him to sit down when the bell rang.

The first moment when he was seated, Chao Sheng complained to Lin Yao dissatisfiedly: "This teacher must be sick."

"I'm also very puzzled. He is usually very gentle, and he doesn't care about sleeping in front of him. Maybe he is in a bad mood today." Lin Yao said.

"He was in a bad mood and let me meet..." Chao Sheng was upset, but he could only admit that he was unlucky, "Forget it, I'll go first."

Lin Yao stopped him: "There is still one class."

"No, I have to practice archery today."

After saying that, Lin Yao let him go.

After leaving the teaching building, Chao Sheng went back to the library alone. "Practice archery" is just an excuse for him to refuse to continue the class with Lin Yao. Anyway, since he was a child, he has only focused on archery, and there is indeed a competition to be played at the end of the year. Lin Yao will not bother him to practice. Arrow time.

Chao Sheng found a piece of A4 paper from the front desk of the library, and wrote eight thick characters on it with a marker pen: "In the library, no noise is allowed."

Just finished writing and put down his pen, Chao Sheng hesitated, took out a new piece of paper, and wrote a new slogan: "Don't tear up the slogan, offenders will be fined!"

Only then did he take the scotch tape with satisfaction, and pasted the two pieces of paper on the glass door outside.

Compared with the libraries of other institutions of higher learning, art colleges like University A do not have such a strong academic atmosphere. The usual self-study area is basically not full of people, and there are not enough managers in the library, and the update of book categories is slow. There is no purchase yet, which also leads to fewer and fewer teachers and students who are willing to borrow books.

But on the other hand, as a librarian, Chao Sheng can work easily because of this, so he hopes that the school library will continue to be bad, which saves him a lot of effort.

The library closes at ten o'clock every night. Chao Sheng put on his coat and was about to leave, but was stopped by the administrator.He had no choice but to go back to the front desk and politely asked the elderly senior, "What's the matter, Miss Ke?"

"The American "National Geographic" that I borrowed from NO.14 in September has not been returned yet?"

"You mean the limited set?" Chao Sheng knew that the set of books was very expensive and out of print. They were usually locked in the cabinet, and only the teachers and graduate students of the school could borrow them.

He glanced through the borrowing records in a hurry, and saw the information of No. 14 in September.

[Book Title] 125 Years of National Geographic

【Request No.】D771.2/59

【Bar code number】E0219936

【Borrower】Xun Zhou

Chao Sheng glanced at the date on the lower right corner of the computer, "How long has it been on loan... The deposit has been deducted into a negative amount."

"Remember to call tomorrow."

"it is good."

Chao Sheng lives in the staff apartment of University A, which is only a 10-minute walk from the library. Even if he leaves early every day and returns late every day, he will not be burdened.

He had just passed the college entrance examination half a year ago, his grades were a mess, and he didn't like reading, so he simply gave up the idea of ​​repeating the college entrance examination, and came to the library of University A as a librarian through the relationship of his uncle at home.The work threshold here is much lower than that of academic libraries, and there is no need to learn complex technologies. Although the current salary is not high, it can fully meet his living needs.

However, there are also disadvantages of work... that is "too boring".

The week after the results of the college entrance examination came out, the whole family felt melancholy, and even Chaosheng himself felt that his future was bleak.So when his uncle helped him save a way out, Chao Sheng only had the joy and gratitude of being alive after a catastrophe.

But he completely ignored the influence of the environment.As time went by, the original sense of comfort in his heart due to finding a job was gradually overwhelmed by the vigor of his peers around him.Especially Lin Yao, who grew up with him, is still studying directing at University A. Every time the two meet in school, Chao Sheng can't help but have an unspeakable psychological gap.

It seems that everyone is enjoying their youth step by step, with dreams and hopes.But only myself...only I stayed in the lifeless library all day long, working slowly and expressionlessly like a forgotten old machine.Or occasionally go to the Kyudo gym to practice the kind of sports that no one cares about and is expensive.

He is slowly getting out of touch with his peers. Even when he accompanies Lin Yao to an English class, he will be punished by the teacher to stand in class because he doesn't know what to ask. This is very embarrassing for him as an adult.

Most importantly, all of this is his own choice.Not working hard in high school, giving up retaking the college entrance examination, working in the boring library...all the boring things are all his own choices, and he has no enthusiasm and motivation to change the status quo.

Therefore, he has no right to be bored, and he doesn't even have the confidence to complain in his heart alone.

——Only facing the matter of "I'm bad" is the only responsibility that Chaosheng can bear.

After returning to the apartment, Chao Sheng slumped on the bed in a relaxed state, and opened the phone calendar.After counting, there are exactly 20 days left, and a new game will be ushered in.In the past, he was determined to win and lose when drawing the bow and archery, but recently it was cold and he tended to be lazy. Not only did he not go to the archery gym, but he didn't even pay much attention to the competition.

He was lying on the bed in a daze, bored, when he heard two light knocks on the door of the apartment.

"Here we come!" Chao Sheng got out of bed and turned the doorknob.

After the door opened, facing a tall and handsome strange man, Chao Sheng hesitated slightly.The sense of smell is not sensitive in winter, but Chao Sheng can still smell the strong and sweet perfume on the other party.

"you are?"

"I live across the street. I just moved here yesterday." The man raised his lips politely.

"Oh." Chao Sheng glanced at him inadvertently, no wonder he felt familiar.

... no, not right.

Chao Sheng's eyes suddenly stopped on the man's thin lips, the lips were distinct, and there was a graceful bow between the lips.Such a mouth tends to make people mean, but the corners of this person's mouth are naturally slightly upturned, which adds a little frivolity to him.

The man held the mobile phone in his hand and explained his purpose: "Can I borrow Wi-Fi for one night? You know the school's broadband, but it's very slow to activate in line. I have to get it tomorrow."

The voice is deep and clean, the articulation is clear, and it is slow.

--it's him.

Chao Sheng slowly recognized who the person in front of him was.

The man didn't wear glasses now, Chao Sheng carefully observed his facial features, and it turned out to be the English teacher who made him stand in the morning.

Unexpectedly, he lived across the street, and now he even asked himself for the Wi-Fi password.

Although Chao Sheng is narrow-minded, there is no reason to refuse his simple request right now, "The 'DCS' is me, and the password is..."

He reported a string of numbers truthfully.

"Is this your phone?" the man asked.

"Ah."

"Setting it as a password is too insecure."

"Oh."

Although the other party was just a kind reminder, Chao Sheng had already begun to get impatient.He has a slow temper and is always cautious when facing strangers, especially when this stranger embarrassed him not long ago, and his body smelled as greasy as almond vanilla ice cream, which made him have no desire to communicate.

"Are you a teaching assistant?" The man quickly looked at Chao Sheng.

Chao Sheng was surprised that the other party didn't recognize him, but it was better this way, he didn't want one more person to remember his embarrassing experience.

"No. The librarian." Chao Sheng replied.

"That's it... Oh, I borrowed a set of books from the library before and haven't had time to return them. Can I just hand them over to you?"

"what book?"

"National Geographic."

It turned out that he kept borrowing books and never returning them... Chao Sheng recalled the book borrowing record he had read just now, what is this person's name?Looking for the sea?Seek sail?Looking for a boat?

It seems to be "seeking a boat".

"No, the library has regulations that cannot be borrowed and returned." Chao Sheng categorically refused, "And what you said, you have to register and sign when you return it."

After hearing this, Xun Zhou showed a disappointed expression, "It's such a trouble..."

"That's the trouble."

Seeing that the other party had no intention of leaving after asking for the Wi-Fi password, Chao Sheng had no choice but to put his hand on the doorknob, using this action to hint to the other party to leave quickly.

"Okay, I'll pay it back some other day." Xunzhou said, "By the way, can I borrow the laundry detergent and clothes drying pole from you? I see that the supermarket downstairs is closed."

"Wait." Chao Sheng just wanted to send him away quickly, and after taking the two things he asked for, he even gave him a few hangers by the way.

"Thank you." Xun Zhou smiled and nodded.

Chao Sheng closed the door expressionlessly.

The smile on the corner of Xun Zhou's mouth did not fade away, he stood there for a few seconds before turning back to the opposite room.

He put down all the things he borrowed from Chao Sheng, and then picked up a scrawled A4 paper on the writing desk and looked at it——

It is easy to see that the person who wrote the words must have been annoyed at the time. After "Don't tear up the slogan, offenders will be fined", an exclamation point was added, which is more conspicuous than the normal slogans in the library.

Xun Zhou smiled lightly, opened the drawer, and put this piece of paper in.

It happened to be able to overlap with the stack of slogans saying "no noise in the library".

The author has something to say: It is estimated to be about 18 words, Xunzhou × Duan Chaosheng, don't stand against each other in 1V1 years.
