Far away in Moscow

Chapter 41 New arrival
"Three people live in one room?" Li Baoqing muttered in a low voice.

Hu Yi looked around: "It's okay, the room is quite big, but there is no toilet and kitchen in the room, so it's not convenient."

The two moved the box into the house lightly, and closed the door behind their backs.The man on the bed groaned twice, opened his eyes and stared at them for a moment in a daze: "Huh? New here?" He spoke in Chinese.

Li Baoqing said with a smile: "Yes, we are from the preparatory department of the language department. We just arrived today. My name is Li Baoqing, majoring in journalism, and he is Hu...Hu...that...Yi."

"You can call me Anton outside." Hu Yi said, "I'm a linguistics major."

"What? Hu Yi? Hehehe... My name is Zhou Dali, we are in the same department, and I also major in journalism." The man on the bed sat up cross-legged, stroking his feet and watching them open the box and put things away: "You don't have much luggage Oh, didn't you bring a quilt? Don't you have thick clothes? It's very cold here in winter."

Li Baoqing put the suitcase in the cupboard, turned his head and replied, "We both studied preparatory studies in Maji last year. We left the quilt and winter clothes there, and we will pick them up tomorrow."

"Hey, so you are Maji's students." Zhou Dali is of medium build, with a bulging belly, a chubby face, curly curly hair, and a strong Shanxi flavor in his sloppy Mandarin. , the accent of the words seems to be floating in the air flatly, with few cadences.He and Hu Li also came to Moscow last year, and also failed to pass the preparatory graduation exam, so they had to repeat it for a year this year.

Since everyone is the same age and has very similar experiences, it is inevitable that they share the same disease and sympathize with each other.The repeating trio hit it off right away, and quickly eliminated the restraint of their first acquaintance.

It happened to be dinner time, so Zhou Dali invited the two of them to have a few drinks at the Arabic restaurant downstairs, and introduced the situation of the dormitory by the way: "The toilet and kitchen are at the end of the corridor, and the public bathhouse downstairs is open every week. Time is the laundry room, and the big clothes can be washed, and the price is not too expensive."

Li Baoqing wrinkled his nose: "There is a smell of paint in the corridor, has it just been renovated?"

"This building has to paint the walls every summer, in order to impress the new foreign students." The three walked out of the building, and Zhou Dali warned: "Building No. 6 is more strictly managed than other buildings. The door will be locked. If you go out at night, you must come back early.

"Lock the door?" Li Baoqing scratched his head: "Why? Afraid that we won't come home at night? Could it be that the ward rounds will be done at night?"

"That's not true, no one cares if you live or not." Zhou Dali thought for a while: "The door is probably locked to ensure the safety of the preparatory students. Moscow is quite chaotic now. If skinheads or terrorists take advantage of the loopholes to get in That's bad."

"It's true that outsiders can't get in, but if it catches fire, the people inside won't be able to get out either." Hu Yi said with a casual smile: "Besides, the three of us live on the fifth floor, so if we jump down, we'll at least fall half to death."

"Don't talk nonsense, there is no open flame in the building, and even the stove is powered by electricity, so how could it catch fire." Li Baoqing said while peeking at the window on the fifth floor, obviously worried.

In any case, they would never have imagined that the few conversations between the two at this moment would become a prophecy in the future, confirming the worst disaster in the history of the founding of Friendship University.

Before entering school, a physical examination is required. When Hu Yi and Li Baoqing came to the infirmary the next morning, there was already a long queue at the door. The Chinese people in front of them were talking and laughing, and they seemed to be familiar with each other.

The two stood at the end of the line and looked at the scenery outside the window, chatting in a low voice, inadvertently pulling a distance of one meter away from the crowd in front of them.Hu Yi was about to raise his legs to keep up with the team, when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him, a tall man with yellow hair carelessly stepped in, standing in front of him with his hips akimbo as if nothing happened.

Hu Yi felt a little displeased, and said something in Russian: "Line up."

The man in front didn't respond.Hu Yi raised his voice and said it again, the man turned his head and squinted a pair of triangular eyes to look at Hu Yi: "What are you talking about?" lad.

It turned out to be this kid.Hu Yi cocked his mouth, stared at him and said in Chinese, "I'll let you line up!"

Huang Mao pointed to the people in front of the line: "What line are you in? I'm with them." He turned around with squinted eyes, and snorted lightly.

Hu Yi, who snorted in this tone, was furious, and stretched out his hand to grab the triangular-eyed arm and pulled it out vigorously: "Don't talk nonsense, queue up behind!"

Huang Mao was dragged back a few steps, frowned and said angrily: "Yeah? Gaha? Why are you still doing it? Are you crazy?" He walked over to push Hu Yi, but was grabbed by Li Baoqing Taking advantage of the trend around his wrist, he staggered a few steps and nearly fell down.

Several students in front of the team rushed to Huang Mao's side to support him, shouting: "Brother Wang, Brother Wang! Are you alright?" while looking at Hu Yi and Li Baoqing in fear.

Huang Mao took a few heavy breaths, straightened his hair parted in the middle, and pointed with one leg shaking, "Where did you two come from?"

"Where did you come from?" Li Baoqing asked back with narrowed eyes.Seeing that he had a ferocious face and a scar on his face, Huang Mao became a little discouraged: "I brought these freshmen here for a physical examination, are you two preparatory students?"

Hu Yi smiled, imitating his accent and said, "It's a preparatory student, what's the matter?"

"What's wrong?...It's not good. What...what do you want?" Huang Mao kept a safe distance from the two of them, with a face full of resentment, but there was no provocative tone in his tone, which gave people a sense of propriety.

Hu Yi and Li Baoqing didn't want to cause trouble, so the three of them just stared at each other and froze in place.Fortunately, the school doctor came out in time, holding his chest angrily and loudly warned: "Everyone be quiet, or go out."

Huang Mao felt relieved, and stood behind Li Baoqing resentfully, muttering incessantly: "They are all people of quality, don't make noise at every turn."

Hu Yi snorted softly.Li Baoqing went down the donkey, turned his head and said calmly: "Okay, the past is over. We are all Chinese, don't start internal strife."

After going around in circles and completing various procedures, the two returned to Maji after lunch to find Peng Song to pick up their luggage. They learned that he had been successfully admitted to Maji's engineering department, but Yu Feifei enrolled in the Economics Department of Youda University.

"Feifei also went to Youda?" Li Baoqing couldn't hide the joy on his face: "Why didn't you tell us?"

"I just made a decision not long ago. It is said that Teacher You's teachers are good, famous, and the tuition is cheap. Considering all aspects, it is the most suitable. But I think these are all excuses. She probably doesn't want you two, or... it's you two. One of them, hee hee."

Li Baoqing grinned and giggled a few times: "Where does she live?"

"She couldn't contact you, so she ran back a few days ago and asked me to pass on the address." Peng Song found a note and handed it to them.Hu Yi and Li Baoqing went to Yan Zhiwen and Lu Tao's room to sit for a while, hurried back to Youda before dinner, put down their luggage and went straight to Yu Feifei's dormitory.

Yu Feifei lives in Building 11, a high-rise dormitory where only female students are allowed to live.The three of them were reunited in Youda, so they were naturally very happy.After chatting for a while, Hu Yi sighed softly: "At the beginning when the three of us came to Moscow together, I didn't expect you to be our senior sister now."

"Yeah, I can't go to and from class with you." Yu Feifei looked a little lonely: "School will start in a few days, you work hard, you must pass the exam."

Li Baoqing shook his head gloomily: "Thanks to your guidance in Maji, I managed to learn some things. Now that you are a freshman, Lao Hu doesn't go to the same class as me. In my heart... I have no idea."

Yu Feifei pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I don't understand your news majors, but if you have any questions about Russian, you can contact me at any time."

Li Baoqing cheered up: "Okay! As long as you can learn Russian well, other subjects will not be so difficult, and I will rely on you in the future!"

Back to Building 6 after dinner, Hu Yi talked about the conflict with Huang Mao during the physical examination during the day, Zhou Dali sat cross-legged on the bed and laughed: "I know, the person you are talking about is Wang Shen, who was in the same class as me in the preparatory class last year." , is a freshman this year. In fact, that guy is not bad, but he has a lot of minor problems."

"What's wrong?"

"Lust, I can't move my legs when I see a girl; I like to brag, I have a good face; I don't speak well, and I feel quite arrogant."

"It's really a bit arrogant." Hu Yi squatted on the ground and said while packing his clothes: "He said that taking freshmen to the medical examination is voluntary labor? Is he still a warm-hearted person?"

"Then how is it possible? He is working for the sixth brother, and often helps the freshmen go to school with various procedures. I think it is probably for the convenience of getting close to the new female students."

"Brother Six? Who is it?"

Zhou Dali got out of bed, walked to the window and pointed outside: "Here, do you see the Chinese restaurant under that building? The owner is called Sixth Brother, he is quite old, he has been in Russia for many years, and has a close relationship with the school. There are many Chinese self-funded students who enroll through him, including me."

Hu Yi and Li Baoqing looked together, and there was a small Chinese-style door in the direction Zhou Dali was pointing at. The decoration style was somewhat ancient, and it looked a bit nondescript when combined with the surrounding background.

The two looked at each other, recalling the scene when they first came to Friendship University to register, and guessed that Wang Shen was there to help the freshmen handle the invitation letter formalities, and the old lady's ambiguous attitude towards the two of them also vaguely appeared. reasonable explanation.

"It's the study abroad agency? He also opened a restaurant. This sixth brother earns a lot of money." Hu Yi lit a cigarette and took a sip: "It seems that he has a lot of background?"

Zhou Dali nodded and said: "Of course! Sixth brother is the most influential Chinese in the school. Wang Shen and some other students sometimes help him run errands, and usually like to hang out in his restaurant when they are free. "

"Oh? They are all the little brothers of Sixth Brother?" Hu Yi remembered the days when he was called brothers and sisters with some social gangsters in high school, and sneered, "What are you doing? Are you young and Dangerous on campus?"

"You can't say that, they just like to hang around Sixth Brother. When Sixth Brother is away, they play cards and drink together, and never cause trouble." Zhou Dali shook his head and said: "Those people are actually quite good, most of them are warm-hearted , I am very popular in school, but Wang Shen is a bit more arrogant and unpopular, and I heard that Sixth Brother doesn't like him too much."

Hu Yi nodded silently: "How is Brother Six?"

　Explanation: The "Arab restaurant" mentioned in this book mainly cooks Middle Eastern and Turkish dishes. It is not run by Arabs, nor is it a halal restaurant, so there are drinks for sale.
