Chapter 95 Secret Trip to Jing City
“……”How come you sent me to the airport safely!
Lin Siqiao quickly opened the airline ticket in his hand, on which his name, flight number, date and departure time were clearly written.
The destination turned out to be...Beijing City!
She said, why did the public security comrades rush to Luyuan and give her 10 minutes to pack her luggage.
After all this time, I’m going on a long journey.
But why would I be sent to Beijing for no apparent reason?
Could it be that Ivantis has been transferred to Jing City and I need to appear in court to testify?
Apart from this, Lin Siqiao couldn't think of any other possibility.
This is not a big problem. Lin Siqiao is just a little worried. There are only a few days left in the National Day holiday, and she doesn’t know how long she will stay there this time. She must not let it delay her schooling.
"Comrade Public Security, how many days will it take to go to Beijing this time?"
"We don't know about this either. You'll know when you get there."
The public security comrades are only responsible for getting people to the airport safely.
Lin Siqiao felt a headache after hearing this, "But I'm still in school!"
"What if I just leave without saying goodbye and the school punishes me for truancy?"
"That won't happen."
The public security comrade assured, "Don't worry about the school. We will send someone to handle it."
As they were talking, several comrades in Zhongshan suits came out of the airport waiting hall, and the public security comrades quickly handed the luggage to Lin Siqiao.
"Comrade Lin, your escort is here."
After that, he shook hands with the other party enthusiastically and said, "Chief Qin, Comrade Xiao Lin will be handed over to you."
"Don't worry, we will take good care of her."
Qin Gang smiled and said, "Thank you so much this time!"
“It should be.”
The plane was about to take off in half an hour, so the public security comrades safely handed Lin Siqiao over and drove away.
Lin Siqiao had no choice but to carry her luggage and follow Section Chief Qin and his group into the terminal building.
It was not until she arrived at the boarding gate that she found out that there were five or six boys and girls of similar age who were also going to travel with her.
Everyone was in a similar situation, all carrying their luggage with confused looks on their faces.
Seeing Lin Siqiao coming, they all looked over curiously. Is there such a pretty girl in their school?
How come I have never seen it before!
Lin Siqiao was also confused, wondering why there were so many people. At this time, the girl next to her suddenly lowered her head and asked her in a low voice.
"Classmate, which department are you from at Fudan University?"
Lin Siqiao shook his head and said, "I'm not from Fudan University."
"You're not from Fudan University? Then which school are you from?"
"I'm from the Shanghai Theater Academy."
"What!"
The girl looked obviously surprised, and Lin Siqiao felt even more puzzled when he looked at the reactions of others.
“Are you all from Fudan University?”
"Yeah, we all are."
The girl nodded. "My name is Jiang Rongrong, and I'm from the German Department of the School of Foreign Languages and Literature at Fudan University."
After Jiang Rongrong introduced herself, she pointed to three men and two women not far away.
"The one in white shirt and black pants is Zhou Yuean. He is from the English Department of the School of Foreign Languages and Literature at Fudan University."
"The guy next to him wearing dark blue is Li Mingqing, and he's from the French department."
"The girl with long hair and a red shirt is called Jin Yao. She seems to be studying Russian."
The remaining man and woman are Xu Jianing and Bei Yali. They are not students but teachers in the Translation Department of the School of Foreign Languages and Literature at Fudan University.
Before Lin Siqiao arrived, everyone was wondering if there was any competition or something like that.
But when they saw that Lin Siqiao, a student from the drama academy, was also going to go, everyone was confused.
Logically speaking, there are so many outstanding students in Fudan University, so it doesn't make sense to choose one who studies acting to participate in the competition.
Lin Siqiao was full of questions at first, until he heard Jiang Rongrong's introduction.
Thinking back to yesterday's exam, I had a vague idea of the answer in my mind.
But she didn't have time to think about it, because the airport staff had already started notifying people to board the plane.
It is a rare thing to take a plane now. Most people rarely have the opportunity to take a train, let alone a big one like an airplane.
In the words of the old man, those who can take a plane now are not ordinary people.
After passing security check, the group walked to the tarmac.
This time, Lin Siqiao and his crew took not a Boeing or an Airbus, but a Soviet-made Ilyushin passenger plane.
There is no distinction between first class and economy class in the cabin. The seats are quite spacious and comfortable, and the meals on the plane are also good.
Apart from some tinnitus during takeoff and landing, there was no other discomfort.
Two and a half hours later, the plane landed steadily at Beijing Airport. When the cabin door opened, everyone was still a little dazed.
I was clearly in the Shanghai Stock Exchange just now, how come I'm here in the blink of an eye.
Then, a gust of cold wind blew, and everyone subconsciously shrank their necks.
The weather in Beijing has not been very good these days. It rained all night yesterday, and the temperature dropped by several degrees.
Fortunately, the bus that came to pick them up was parked at the airport, and everyone quickly got on the bus.
More than an hour later, Lin Siqiao and his companions were settled in the guesthouse under the Ministry of Commerce.
The small white building is four stories high, and each room has a separate toilet and shower.
The most surprising thing was that Section Chief Qin actually arranged single rooms for them.
This is exactly what Lin Siqiao wants.
On the way here, she was quite worried. If two people shared a room, it would be very troublesome to enter and exit the space.
I didn’t expect that Section Chief Qin’s benefits were more than that. There was a cafeteria on the first floor of the guesthouse, and food and accommodation were all free.
Section Chief Qin also gave each of them 50 yuan, 30 kilograms of national food coupons, 12 feet of cloth coupons, and 10 industrial coupons.
"This trip was a bit rushed, and you may not have enough time to prepare many things."
"Take these notes. I'll give everyone a day off tomorrow."
"You can go to the city and buy some things."
After hearing this, everyone became more confused. They looked at each other, and finally it was Professor Xu Jianing from the Translation Department who spoke up.
"Chief Qin, the children are all very confused."
"Why don't you talk to everyone first and tell them what we can do?"
Xu Jianing had led a team to participate in competitions before. Not only did they pay for the entire event themselves, but the final prizes were also pens or enameled steel cups.
He wouldn't even dare to dream of such a good thing as eating and drinking for free and getting paid.
"Don't worry, everyone."
"The time is not right now. I will notify everyone when the time is right."
Section Chief Qin didn't want to play tricks, but it was not his turn as a small section chief to decide how to arrange this matter.
Before leaving, he gave a special reminder.
"By the way, the fourth floor is the library, which contains all kinds of literature."
"Everyone can go up and take a look if they need to."
"There will be a baseline test the day after tomorrow morning. I hope everyone can perform well."
After Section Chief Qin said this, everyone more or less realized the seriousness of the problem and stopped asking questions.
We had a group meal in the evening, which included two meat dishes, three vegetable dishes and a soup.
After eating and drinking, everyone did not go back to their rooms to rest, but went directly to the library on the fourth floor.
This library should have been built temporarily, but the information and reference books inside are quite diverse.
The vast majority of them are original books from abroad, and some are translated versions published in China early on, which are not available on the market.
After reading this, even a fool can understand how important the exam the day after tomorrow is.
Lin Siqiao accompanied him to roll for an hour, but he couldn't roll anymore, so he went back to his room to rest.
No one paid any attention to her, after all, she was from another school.
They don't talk much and they don't know this person well.
But everyone thought that she probably couldn't understand it.
Lin Siqiao doesn't care what they think. He just eats and sleeps.
The next morning, when Lin Siqiao went downstairs to have breakfast, he found that everyone had panda eyes and it was obvious that they did not get enough rest.
"Good morning."
"morning"
After everyone greeted each other, they sat down. When the waiter of the guesthouse saw that everyone was present, he brought breakfast over.
Breakfast is traditional Beijing snacks, fried dough sticks, pickles and soy milk, which old Beijing people love.
Except for Lin Siqiao, the remaining five people stayed in the library until about four in the morning yesterday before returning to their rooms to take a nap. Now they are all still half asleep.
When I got it, I thought it was soy milk, but after I gulped it down in two gulps.
It is not right to swallow it, and it is not right not to swallow it.
""
After Jiang Rongrong dry-heaved a few times, she covered her mouth and ran to the yard of the guesthouse.
When the others heard the sound, they couldn't bear it anymore. They put down their bowls and ran out.
Several people vomited yellow bile outside, and when they came back they saw Lin Siqiao seemed fine, eating happily.
How could they know that Lin Siqiao's grandma and grandpa were pure Beijing natives. She had been drinking this stuff since she was a child and had long been accustomed to it.
And their way of drinking it is wrong. Don't drink soy milk in one breath.
Break the fried dough sticks into pieces and soak them in soy milk, then put a few shredded pickles on top when eating.
When you take a bite of this, your mouth will be filled with the aroma of the burnt doughnuts and the crispness of the pickles.
There is not even a sour smell!
"Student Lin, don't you think this tastes bad?" Jiang Rongrong's face turned pale from spitting.
"Not bad." Lin Siqiao said and took another sip.
However, Lin Siqiao just drank silently and did not teach them how to drink.
Most people wouldn't be able to get used to the taste unless they drink it eight or ten times. How could she, who was nominally visiting Beijing for the first time, be qualified to teach?
No one thought much about the fact that she ate with relish. After all, some people like it and some don't.
After breakfast, everyone gathered together to discuss whether to act separately or go out together.
The two teachers from the Translation Department both have families, and they thought that they could save as much as possible, so they decided not to join in the fun.
Zhou Yuean was a little conflicted, wanting to go out but not wanting to go out.
"Li Mingqing, are you going out?"
If he went out, they would be a good companion.
"You guys go ahead, I don't really want to go out either."
Li Mingqing is a hardworking contestant. He was looking at his notes from time to time while eating.
"What about you two, are you going out?"
Zhou Yuean was asking about Jin Yao and Jiang Rongrong. They were both from the School of Foreign Languages and Literatures and needed to get to know each other.
"I have to go out for a while."
Jin Yao said, "This is my first time in Beijing. I plan to go out for a walk and take a photo at Tiananmen Square as a souvenir."
"Me too!"
Jiang Rongrong had the same idea as her, and then she glanced at Lin Siqiao.
"Student Lin, do you want to come with us?"
"I won't go, just have fun."
Half of Lin Siqiao's things are in the space. She lives alone, so if she needs anything, she can just take it.
Anyway, she brought an extra-large luggage bag, so who knows what she put in it.
Of course, she wouldn't just stay in her room all day like an idiot.
How boring that is.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Siqiao plans to go out and meet old friends.
