"Would you like to have dinner at my place before leaving?" Wei Ran asked, carrying all the photos about the Makar family to the long table in the hall on the first floor.

Gorman picked up a close-up of his grandson and looked at it, "The photo is really good, but the main thing is that my grandson is good-looking."

"Your own grandson, everything you say is right." Wei Ran shook his head and asked again, "What are you going to eat? I'll make it."

"No"

Gorman changed the photo and said, "You just came back, so you should take a good rest, and I have to go back to the forest farm to continue teaching Ji Ma."

"How's his progress?" Wei Ran poured himself a cup of coffee and asked without anything to say.

"That little bastard seems to be really fascinated by your classmate Maya."

Gorman put down the photo in his hand and said, dumbfounded, "It's no exaggeration. His current state is as serious and hard-working as when you were in class."

"It's not a bad thing..."

Wei Ran muttered to himself, hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice before asking, "Gorman, I have a question I don't know whether I should ask."

"If you don't know whether to ask, the best option is not to ask."

Gorman smiled after speaking, "But I'm in a good mood now, so you can try asking. If you really shouldn't ask, I can pretend I didn't hear you."

Hearing this, Wei Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively, "That Maya... what is her identity?"

"You like Maya too?" Gorman asked with raised eyebrows, "Don't you have a girlfriend?"

"I'm worried that Jima won't be able to resist Maya, and I'm even more worried that that bastard will cause trouble for him if he provokes people he shouldn't provoke."

"You don't have to worry about this"

Gorman picked up a photo of Makar and his wife again and explained nonchalantly, "Maya is an orphan. Her father died before she was born... and then her mother sent her to

Orphanage, emigrated alone and left the country and never came back. Of course, don’t tell Maya these things, she doesn’t know.”

"Then she is..."

"Her father's friend raised her"

Gorman took the initiative to explain before Wei Ran finished speaking, "Maya majored in psychology at university, and she was planning to continue her master's degree in Kazan. You happened to be here at that time, so she was able to help you by the way.

At the same time, she can get an additional master's degree in history two years after you graduate, which is not a disadvantage to her, right?"

"Really?" Wei Ran looked at Gorman suspiciously.

Gorman spread his hands, "There's nothing you can do if you don't believe me, at least that's what that bastard Culp told me."

"So Ji Ma won't be in any danger?" Wei Ran asked worriedly.

"As long as he doesn't hurt Maya, I think there won't be any danger."

After Gorman finished speaking, he closed the photo album and said, "Okay, if you don't have anything else to ask, I'm going back to Hongqi Forest Farm."

"Last question." Wei Ran stood up and asked, "Where is my mentor Kajik? What is his identity?"

"He?" Gorman smiled, "Victor, don't be suspicious, Kajik is just a university teacher."

"real?"

"of course it's true"

Gorman lit a cigarette again and held it in his mouth. He walked out with the photo album and the large pile of photo frames and continued, "We are human beings and we always need some friends, right?"

Watching Gorman leave alone, Wei Ran stood at the door and stared for a long time, until he decided not to get involved in Jima and Maya's affairs in the future, and then closed the heavy solid wood door.

Since the house was renovated at the end of March, it has been left to smell for more than a month. Although I don’t know how much invisible formaldehyde remains, at least psychologically I feel that this house is suitable for living in.

Already.

After a comfortable bath, Wei Ran, who was still energetic due to jet lag, simply took out the notebook in his suitcase and carefully recorded his experience of the Battle of Guam while lying on the bed.

If nothing else, Time Film Studio most likely has no interest in this story, but for Wei Ran, the stories recorded in the running accounts on the screen and the photos hanging in the empty room on the third floor are all those.

The most unforgettable memory in life is a friend who will never meet again.

After typing the last Chinese character into the screen, Wei Ran closed the document and opened his long-awaited graduation thesis, preparing to take advantage of the jet lag to write as much as he could.

Amidst the crackling sounds of the keyboard, the night outside the window was gradually dyed red by the morning sun. When the sun completely rose, the blue sky also made Wei Ran, who had been busy all night, stop what he was doing.

However, before he could figure out what to eat for breakfast, a slightly older white BMW car honked its horn outside the yard.

Glancing at the car outside through the window, Wei Ran quickly walked out of the door and greeted it.

"Are you really at home?" Kajik, Weiran's cheap tutor, said in surprise, "I thought it was that bastard Jima."

"You don't come here to see me every day, right?" Wei Ran asked, dumbfounded.

"I have to pass the road outside the yard when I go to and from get off work."

Kajik said and pointed to the house behind Wei Ran, "When I passed by just now, I saw lights on inside, so I came over to take a look."

"I just came back yesterday afternoon," Wei Ran asked with a smile, "Would you like to have breakfast together?"

“Just have breakfast”

Kajik shook his head, "But you came back just in time. If you have time today, you can go to school with me. I need some people today."

"Now?" Wei Ran asked in surprise. He still couldn't tell whether the other party really caught the young man by chance, or whether he came to block him after getting the news.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You can have breakfast first"

As Kajik spoke, he had already started to turn the car around, "But it's best to arrive before ten o'clock in the morning, and remember to drive there. I may need your car to pull something."

Before he finished speaking, Kajik stepped on the accelerator, drove the car onto the road along the river, and disappeared in a flash.

After thinking for a moment, Wei Ran turned around and went back to his room. After changing into clothes that were more convenient for moving around, he emptied the SUV of all the debris and then drove out of the yard and headed straight for the school.

He bought some food and drinks along the way to fill his stomach. When he drove the car into the school and parked it downstairs in Kajik's office, he happened to see his cheap classmate Maya also driving a new car.

An old, but extremely clean light blue van parked on the other side of Kajik's car.

"Long time no see, Victor."

After Maya opened the car door, she stood directly in the cab and leaned out most of her body. She said hello to Wei Ran, who had also just opened the car door, across the BMW car in the middle.

"Maya, long time no see." Wei Ran responded politely.

"Jima is not in your car, is he?" Maya asked.

"No." Wei Ran looked around in an exaggerated manner, and responded jokingly, "There should be no Ji Ma within a radius of ten meters."

"That's good." Maya immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and simply jumped out of the cab and kicked the door, "If I knew you were coming, I wouldn't have to get up early."

Hearing this, Wei Ran spread his hands and said, "I was temporarily pulled over to help. I don't even know what I need to help."

"We are going to buy books" Maya gave an unexpected answer.

"Buy a book?" Wei Ran became more and more puzzled.

"A lot of books"

Maya thought for a while and changed to a more understandable explanation, "There is a library in Yudino upstream that is going to be demolished recently. Someone is selling the books there at a low price. The boss went to get a bargain."

"Why does this sound unreliable?" Wei Ran said with a frown.

"Who cares?" Maya spread her hands indifferently, "There are very few people going to the library now, otherwise the library would not be demolished."

"makes sense"

Wei Ran couldn't help but nodded. It's just like a film camera. Although there are still many people playing with it, it has undoubtedly long since withdrawn from the mainstream and been labeled a "niche".

The library is similar. Today, as the Internet becomes increasingly convenient, too many people go to the library not for the collection of books. In addition, the update speed of the library's collection is far slower than that of the Internet, especially in a small town.

It seemed logical that the library would be demolished.

After they had only chatted for a few words, Kajik had already walked downstairs. He even carried two large thermos bottles and two thermos lunch boxes in his hands.

"Maya, have you brought the extra lunch that Victor prepared?" Kajik asked while putting things in the trunk.

"Bring it here," Maya said, having already picked up a lunch box of a similar style from the car and handed it to Kajik.

After loading all these things into the trunk, Kajik rolled up his sleeves and looked at the time, then got into the cab, "Follow closely, we don't have enough time. Unfortunately, it would be nice if that bastard Jima was here

Well, he will definitely be able to find a lot of little gangsters to help him."

Hearing this, Wei Ran and Maya, who originally wanted to ask something, looked at each other and showed helpless expressions of both laughing and crying. Then they could only get back into the car honestly, followed Kajik and left the school and headed straight out of the city.

direction.

After leaving the city, the three cars drove west along the road along the Volga River for only about ten kilometers before entering Yudino, which is considered a satellite city of Kazan.

However, the leader Kajik did not stop, but continued to drive upstream along the river for another five or six kilometers, and finally slowly stepped on the brakes in a small town standing along the river.

The three cars waited for about ten minutes. A motorcycle parked next to Kajik's car, and the latter also lowered the window. After the two exchanged a few words with each other, the motorcycle drove out suddenly.

, and Kajik also performed a double flash, signaling Wei Ran and Maya behind to follow.

Led by the motorcycle, when they stepped on the brakes again, they had stopped in front of a cement house on the edge of the town, next to the edge of the forest.

This house is not that big, with windows on all four sides on the upper and lower floors, and it only covers an area of ​​400 square meters at most.

If it was used for living, this house would be considered a good mansion, but if it was used as a library, it would seem a bit shabby. And the reason why it was demolished was because the three of them saw the side of the house facing the forest.

Then I found the answer.
