Mingtai was drawing a diagram of the internal structure of the Navy Club based on his impressions on his desk: stairs, corridors, private rooms, halls, corners, etc., all in detail.
But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
So Mingtai hurriedly found a few papers and pressed them on top of the drawings, and said: "Please come in!"
Before he finished speaking, Ah Cheng walked in with exquisitely prepared Western-style refreshments, "Mingtai, big brother asked me to bring you some late-night snacks."
"Thank you, Brother Cheng. Leave it alone! I'll come."
"Look at yours!" Cheng put down his snack, glanced at the papers on the table, and asked casually, "How many papers have you made?"
"Two!" Mingtai replied obediently, "One is a brief history of Europe and one is Latin."
Ah Cheng came over and reached out to take it, "Let me take a look..."
But as soon as his hand touched the paper, Mingtai quickly protected it and shouted: "I haven't finished it yet!"
As soon as Ah Cheng saw Mingtai like this, he knew there must be something weird here, so his face immediately darkened and he said word by word: "Let go!"
Mingtai had no choice but to slowly let go of his hand.
Cheng snatched the stack of papers and checked them.
But when he turned to the back, he found several structural sketches of the building, so he immediately asked seriously: "What is this?"
Mingtai pulled the sketches back and muttered: "I don't want to study European history anymore, I want to study architecture instead!"
It's okay not to say this. Before he finished speaking, Cheng gave him a big eye roll and said, "Young master, how many times have you changed your major? You have changed your major, do you still want to graduate?"
"
Mingtai continued to mutter: "I can't study well if I'm not interested...How can I graduate if I don't study well?"
This moment made Cheng laugh angrily, "I say, young master, architectural design is an engineering subject, but you have always studied liberal arts..."
"But I can draw! It was you who taught me."
"Who said you can study architecture just because you can draw? That's bullshit! If you let big brother know, I will definitely break your legs!" Cheng scolded Mingtai while looking at the sketches a few more times.
"Then again, even if you really want to study architecture, you must at least know something about interior design and garden design art! If nothing else, let's just talk about this picture of yours... If I didn't
If you’re mistaken, it’s the Navy Club, right?”
Mingtai nodded quickly, "Well, Brother Acheng, what do you think of my painting?"
"Not very good!" Acheng commented almost out of his mouth, and then pointed out deliberately, "Look here, the overall layout of the Navy Club is a combination of Chinese and Western. Although its stairs and corridors are very wide, the rooms are not well built.
They are all very small, especially on the second floor. The balconies are particularly small, the windows are long and narrow, and there is a secret twisting flower corridor outside the corridor..."
As Cheng said, he actually picked up the pen and began to correct it.
Mingtai's eyes were spinning rapidly, and his mind was memorizing rapidly in conjunction with Cheng's strokes. At the same time, he was also constructing an image of the internal layout of the Navy Club in his mind bit by bit.
"...Also, when this building was first built, it suffered lightning strikes, so its lightning rods were installed very densely."
"Brother Acheng, how come you know so much about that place? No, I have to find a chance to verify it and see if what you said is true!"
Acheng smiled after hearing this and said, "If you are really interested, I will take you over to have a look next time!"
"No, you gave me a membership card. When I finish these papers, I'll go take a look around by myself."
"Go and take a walk by yourself?" Acheng couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this, "Have you forgotten that the second floor of the club has been put under martial law by No. 76? How can you go up there without me following you?"
"That's it... Then how about you take me there again tomorrow?"
"Not tomorrow, I'm not free!"
"Then what should we do?" Just when Mingtai was worried about this, Acheng suddenly changed the subject, "Why don't you go find Master Aqiang!"
"Brother A Qiang? What are you doing with him? Besides, he's a small patrol leader and he doesn't have as much dignity as you, Brother Acheng!"
"I heard from my elder brother that the Japanese Consulate General will hold a business seminar tomorrow."
"Seminar?" Mingtai's eyes suddenly lit up, "What exactly is it going to do?"
"The public view is that it is an academic exchange, but in fact it is a deciphering competition."
As soon as these words came out, Mingtai immediately grasped the key point of what Acheng had just said, "Deciphering competition? So... Brother Aqiang also signed up to participate?"
"Yes, according to the regulations, if you want to participate in this seminar, you must register as a group of three people. If you can convince Master Aqiang and let him agree to you joining his group, you will be able to enter the Consulate General of Japan smoothly.
?"
"Yes! Thanks, Brother Acheng!" Mingtai said and ran out immediately.
Acheng was seen shaking his head, but he still carefully sorted out the pictures and papers before exiting Mingtai's room...
There was nothing to say all night, and it was early the next morning.
Mingtai was attracted by the aroma of the freshly made pan-fried pancakes, and ran downstairs excitedly, directly to the dining table.
"Good morning, eldest sister."
"Good morning!" Ming Jing put down the newspaper in his hand, relaxed his frown as much as possible, and said to Mingtai with a gentle face, "Look at you, why are you so happy?"
"Brother Aqiang promised me that he would take me out to play soon!"
"Really?" Ming Jing looked at Li Qiang with some doubts, "Where are you going?"
"Nothing, I'm just going to hold an academic exchange seminar about European history, so I plan to take Mingtai there to have a listen."
He didn't want Mingjing but said suspiciously: "Isn't that right? When did our Mingtai become so well-behaved and motivated?"
"Sister..."
However, before Mingtai could act coquettishly, Li Qiang mercilessly destroyed the situation and said: "The eldest sister is the eldest sister. In fact, Mingtai insisted on following her because there was food, fun, and target shooting there.
I went together."
As soon as these words came out, Axiang couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Mingjing also showed a true expression and pointed to the stage with his finger.
"Brother Aqiang, why do you keep tearing me down?"
"I want to remind you not to be clever in front of eldest sister. Your little tricks can't be hidden from eldest sister."
"Yes! Ah Qiang is right, you are not allowed to act clever in front of me in the future, do you hear me?"
"I heard it!" Mingtai responded with a pout, then picked up the bowl of soup in front of him and drank it.
But at this moment, Ming Jing continued to say to Mingtai: "Hey, by the way! Dr. Su was here yesterday."
Mingtai just said "Oh" casually, but then he heard Mingjing say: "I'm proposing marriage to you!"
Immediately, Mingtai almost spit out the soup he just drank in his mouth...
