lone bird

It’s almost the end of summer, and the sun is still hot at noon. The row of trees planted by the roadside at the gate of the Fifth Prison in Baijiang City is a little wilted by the sun. After blowing, the temperature rolled in the wind makes people feel hot and dry.

When Shi An came out of the corner gate of the Fifth Prison, he turned his head and thanked the person who sent him out: "Thank you, I'm sorry."

The corner door was closed, but Shi An didn't stop, he walked along the sidewalk and walked into the shade of the trees.

Nine times, his visitation was denied again.

Yan Feilan was imprisoned for five years. Counting today, Shi An had visited him 59 times, but Yan Feilan had never seen him once.

Shi An doesn't plan to come again, and Yan Feilan will be released from prison next month, so he doesn't have to come again.

Thinking of this, Tokigi felt a little more relaxed. He walked in the shade and fanned the wind with his hands. He read the weather forecast when he went out in the morning. Today's temperature has soared to 37 degrees. This year's summer is unusually hot.

Baijiang City is located in the north, with four distinct seasons. In previous years, the hottest summer was only 31 degrees Celsius, and it was only half a month hot. This year is good. The summer seems to be infinitely extended, with no end in sight.

In such a summer, an air-conditioned room is a fairyland on earth, but Shi An is not so lucky. He still has to drive to school to work. There is no air-conditioning in the classroom, only a squeaking fan when it turns, and above the podium There is no fan yet, and the two big classes in a row may make him sweat profusely.

Walking to his car, Tokigi wanted to smoke a cigarette before getting in the car, but after thinking about it, he gave up and got in the car directly. The car air conditioner is also a kind of torture for Shigishi, so he got out of the car after blowing back to school I have to vomit, and my colleague who took the outdated shore car joked that he can ask the 4S store when he changes the car next time, if it is cheaper to not use the air conditioner.

When the car started and turned onto the main road, Shi An rolled down all the windows, and the wind that poured in from the windows when the car started was enough to blow off the sweat on his forehead.

After catching up with the afternoon rush hour, driving more and more into the city became more and more congested, Shi An glanced at the road that was blocked into a red line on the navigation, he felt a little depressed, he seemed to be the same every time he came to visit Yan Feilan.

Visits have to be refused, and there will always be traffic jams when I go back, whether I go home or go to work.

When Shi An looked at the motionless traffic ahead, he raised his hand and flipped the small pendant on the rearview mirror, wrinkled his nose at the handmade doll with awkward stitches on the pendant and said, "You can't let me have my way back?"

After being stuck on the road for half an hour, when Shi An arrived at the school, he was still not late. He glanced at the very old watch on his wrist.

It was a gift he received on the day he received the admission letter. It has been ten years since now, and whether the style is popular or not is no longer a big deal. This watch has been repaired six or seven times. When the watch repairer went to repair it last month, the master watch repairer shook his head and sighed at the watch, and persuaded Shi An in a good voice to stop having any illusions about the old guy, and change it.

How can you not have illusions, and you can't just change it, Yan Feilan told him when he brought him this watch, if this watch disappeared from his wrist, Yan Feilan would never see it again. Take care of him.

There was still half an hour before class, and Shi An really didn't dare to rush to the cafeteria for lunch. He tore off his bag from the co-pilot, and hurried into the building from the scorching sun.

Shi An ran upstairs carrying the bag in three steps and two steps. In the bag were the materials that the dean asked him to sort out. He is not a person's supporter, a small associate professor in Shi'an District dared to say anything, the dean said that he needed materials before class in the afternoon, and he didn't even dare to ask if he could have lunch first.

The dean's office and the stuffy corridor are two different worlds. Shi An stood in front of the dean's desk and glanced at the air conditioner. It was 26 degrees, and Shi An wanted to ask the dean if he could call the students here for class in the afternoon. .

"Hours." The dean pushed up the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose. When he leaned back, the leather office chair made the sound of being squeezed. He was very serious in his words: "I didn't say you Ah, you said that you are going to be promoted to the secretary of the courtyard now anyway, how could you make such a low-level mistake?"

Shi An held the bag in front of his body with both hands, nodded and shrunk his chest, looking very sincere: "I'm sorry, Dean, it's my problem."

Although Shi An didn't know where he was wrong, but the leader said he was wrong, thinking about it, it was just a matter of information, Shi An thought that he might have to reorganize overnight tonight, so he couldn't help but sighed in his heart .

"Tell me about President Qin's initiative to toast you yesterday. How could you not drink?" The dean knocked on the table, frowned and scolded Shi'an: "How old are you? Don't forget, you are now a You're just an associate professor, what contribution have you made to the college? Nothing! You're still counting on Principal Qin."

Shi An rolled his eyes in his heart, it's okay, it's not too bad, at least it's not a problem with the materials, and I still have some sleep when I go home tonight.

Standing in the dean's office for 10 minutes of training, Shi An felt a little pain in his heel when he walked out, and he planned to go back to the office to drink saliva in the last 10 minutes.

There was a colleague in the office, when Shi An entered the door, his eyes were a little straightened, he casually greeted his colleague and collapsed on his chair, when he closed his eyes, he forgot that he was coming back to drink water Gotta clean it up.

When the class bell rang, Shi An woke up in a jerk.

"Are there classes?" A colleague asked Shi An.

"Yes." Shi An sighed: "There are classes, not only there, but also two classes. What kind of fate is this?"

In fact, Shi An's life is quite good. Both his parents are healthy and retired, and they are living in a small county at home. A child with excellent academic performance will be admitted to a key high school and a key university, and then stay in school to teach. By the way, he will be evaluated for a professional title. There is no bondage of love, and the whole family is not hungry. His 28 years of life so far can be regarded as true. It's been smooth sailing.

All the courses today came to an end, and next week is the review week for the students. Tokigi plans to show his kindness today to set the key points for those students who usually don't come to class and are active now.

Then, click on the last name of this semester.

Shi An was in a bad mood today, and was going to give a big gift to those students who missed today's class. After counting the names, he checked the number of absentees. There were 99 students in the three classes, and ten of them were absent. On the roster, he mourned in advance the final grades of these ten students in his heart.

A large class lasted 5 minutes, with a 10-minute break in the middle. Tokigi lowered his head and fiddled with the mobile phone on the podium.

Shen Qi sent a text message asking him if he saw Yan Feilan today.

Shi An pressed the corner of his mouth to reply to the message, Shen Qi is a good person in every way, his grades in school were comparable to Shi An's, and he was good looking, but this person is too good at chatting, Shi An was refused by Yan Feilan to visit 59 Time, Shi An also replied to Shen Qi 59 times.

Pressing the send button, Tokigi quickly pulled the collar of his shirt to fan himself.

"Teacher." A boy sitting in the front row turned over the table and handed Shi An a new bottle of mineral water, "Drink some water, the new one hasn't been touched, it was originally brought for you, it was ice cold, but ..."

It's been out of ice for a long time, and only the unfinished frost hangs on the bottle.

Shi An said thank you, unscrewed the water bottle and took two sips, the soul that was about to be pierced by the heat was finally covered with a shield.

The boy who delivered the water was called Zhan Ming, Shi An liked this student quite a bit, he was modest and courteous, he respected teachers, he was simply a super outstanding college student in the new era.

"Teacher, drink slowly." Zhan Ming smiled at Shi An.

Only Shi An doesn't like Zhan Ming's smile very much, his smile seems too purposeful, and Shi An knows exactly what Zhan Ming is thinking, because everyone is the same kind of person, and some things can be seen through at a glance.

Shen Qi sent another message, and Shi An politely said thank you to Zhan Ming, then he lowered his head and returned the message.

Zhan Ming laughed energetically, and Shi An said that you are welcome, then turned the table and returned to his seat.

[Are you free tonight?have a meal together? 】

Shi An is not a sociable person, he has no friends, and the only ones who can call him out for dinner are the school leaders and Shen Qi.

【OK. 】

Shi An agreed without even thinking about it. Shen Qi is an excellent rich second generation who has no bad habits and only loves to eat and drink with Shi An.

It's not free to eat, anyway, Shi An is too lazy to cook when he goes home alone, so compared to instant noodles and takeaway, Shi An still chooses the big meal that Shen Qi spends money on.

After another 45 minutes, when the class bell rang, Shi An raised his eyebrows slightly to announce the victory of a small war. He packed up his things and prepared to change classrooms to meet the next war. When Zhan Ming came, he asked Shi An: "Teacher, do you want me to help you turn on the multimedia in that classroom?"

Shi An raised his head and gave Zhan Ming a smile: "No, just press a button, don't bother you, I can do it myself."

Zhan Ming, who was rejected, stood in front of the podium without moving. When Shi An was about to leave, he asked Zhan Ming: "Aren't you leaving?"

Zhan Ming hesitated and asked Shi An: "Mr. Shi, do you have time next month today? It's my birthday, and I want to invite you over for dinner."

Shi An shook his head resolutely: "I'm sorry, I might not be able to go that day." He walked around the podium and took the half-drinked mineral water and patted Zhan Ming's shoulder: "Happy birthday to you in advance, thank you of water."

He didn't lie to Zhan Ming, Shi An did have something to do today next month, Yan Feilan was released from prison, he had to pick him up, settle down for Yan Feilan, and have dinner with Yan Feilan, he really didn't have time to give it to him Zhanming celebrates his birthday.

When the last class was over with 5 minutes left, Shi An received a message from Shen Qi again. Shen Qi sent a message to locate the restaurant. By the way, he praised this restaurant to the sky, and gave Shi An a photo of an Internet celebrity visiting the restaurant. screenshot.

Tokigi silently added the name of this restaurant to the memo.
