Chapter 181 Stealing Books
In the living room, Lin Mu saw Mingcheng talking on the phone non-stop. Turning his body sideways, he heard Mingcheng saying intermittently: "Mr. Liang, military tickets are temporarily suspended. Cigarettes and sugar are monopolized by the government. Let me tell you, Don’t be too brainy, branches and sub-branches can work, so can banks. Use your brains... yes..."

Lin Mu stepped lightly, and slipped into Minglou's study while Mingcheng was on the phone.

The study room is very spacious, and the four treasures of the study are placed on the square desk, and the desktop is spotlessly clean.The bookcases are attached to one wall, and there are all glass-framed windows.The bibliography can be seen clearly through the transparent glass, but the bookcase door is locked.

Lin Mu saw the black briefcase on the desk and was about to get it when the door of the study was pushed open.

Mingcheng stood at the door and said: "Brother's study is usually not allowed to come in, you know the rules, don't make things difficult for me."

Lin Mu glanced at the bookcase unnaturally and said, "I'm just looking for a book."

"What book are you looking for? Just open the book list and I'll find it for you."

"Brother Ah Cheng."

"Come out and sit down now."

"Brother Ah Cheng." Lin Mu was a little unhappy, "This is my home..."

"If you don't come out again, I won't be polite."

Seeing his upright expression, Lin Mu quickly surrendered and said, "I'm leaving, Brother Ah Cheng, don't be angry, I'm leaving now."

Walking to the door, he turned sideways to avoid Mingcheng's eyes, and just as he raised his leg to step out, Mingcheng asked again, "Which book do you want to find?"

"About the [-]th century... about the European Renaissance..." Lin Mu paused and said, "Dante's "Divine Comedy"."

"Yes, there is. The Latin version, do you want it? I'll get it for you if you want it." Mingcheng blurted out without thinking.

Lin Mu nodded and said, "Yes."

"Wait a minute." He walked into the study room, took out a large bunch of keys from his pocket, opened the bookcase, and skillfully took out a Latin version of "The Divine Comedy" for Lin Mu.

"I still want to watch the adventures of knights." Mingtai raised his neck and looked up, "There is "Crusader Knight" on it, I saw it."

"Brother said, it's better to read less of this kind of book."

"Anti-aggression! I want to see it!" Lin Mu said in a non-yielding manner.

Mingcheng raised his head and looked at the bookshelf. The position of the book was so high that he couldn't reach it at all. He looked at Lin Mu helplessly and said, "Wait, little ancestor, I'll get a ladder. Stand here honestly , don't move anything."

Lin Mu nodded obediently.

"I'll be right back." After speaking, Ah Cheng gently closed the door and walked out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Mu ran to the door and quickly unlocked it. He opened Minglou's briefcase as quickly as possible, and quickly took out a document from it.Immediately, he took out a miniature camera disguised as a lighter from his pocket, and skillfully reproduced it.He suddenly heard a voice in the passage, and quickly put the documents back and put the purse away.Then he quickly ran to the door and opened it.

Mingcheng was dragging a small escalator, when he saw Lin Mu frowned slightly and asked, "What are you doing standing at the door?"

Lin Mu smiled and said, "Help me."

"It's fine if you don't make trouble."

Lin Mu pushed the ladder into the house, climbed up the ladder to get the book, and got the book and was about to come down.Lin Mu's eyes were sharp, and he saw a golden button on Minglou's document bag was loose. Seeing that he had no time to fasten it, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Ah Cheng, is it the Chinese version?"

"Yes, the bibliography is also in Chinese."

"Then I don't want it anymore, I want to read the original version."

"The original? The original is in Polish."

"Well, I want the Latin version."

"Can you speak Latin?"

Lin Mu said seriously: "I signed up for a private training class at the University of Hong Kong and am learning Latin."

"Then you have to wait a little longer, I'll look for it for you, which shelf is it?" Mingcheng put down the book again, thought for a while, and rummaged through the bookcase.

With the back of his hand behind him, Lin Mu quickly put the button of the document bag back on.

"I found it, but it's just a fragmented copy. It might be bought by my elder brother at the second-hand bookstore in Carusel Bridge." Mingcheng felt sorry for holding an old book with a re-covered cover.

"Yes, brother likes the feeling of buying books there. It seems that the books in the second-hand bookstore are all stained with the pedantry of the seniors, but in fact, they are all dirt from the dust." Lin Mu taunted Minglou, and he felt that the insinuations were mean.

Mingcheng slowly climbed down the small ladder as if he didn't understand.

Lin Mu took the book in Ah Cheng's hand and said, "Thank you Brother Ah Cheng."

Mingcheng locked the bookcase.

When the two came out of the study together, Lin Mu watched Mingcheng lock the door of the study with his own eyes.

"Brother Ah Cheng, I remember you had a relationship when you were in Paris. That sister is very beautiful. Her name is... what is it?" Lin Mu asked suddenly.

"Susan."

"Yes, the first time I saw her, I wanted to chase her as my wife."

Mingcheng laughed, finally showing some complacency on his face.

"Why didn't you stay in France, but chose to go back to China?" Lin Mu looked at him puzzled, and asked, "You should fight for your own love and freedom."

"What do you want to say?" Mingcheng seemed to understand the meaning of Lin Mu's words, and asked blankly.

Lin Mu seemed a little hesitant, and asked, "Brother, you are in Cao Ying and your heart is in Han, right?"

"Politics is not allowed at home."

"I'm just asking if he is."

"Don't ask for a beating on the first day of the new year."

"Then Brother Ah Cheng, who is Big Brother working for?"

Mingcheng stared at Lin Mu and said, "Who does big brother do things for, it has nothing to do with me. I only know that I am doing things for big brother." Mingcheng replied impeccably, "Satisfied?"

"Brother Ah Cheng, since ancient times, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black."

"Can you clearly distinguish which color is vermilion and which color is ink?" Mingcheng asked back with a smile.

"Well said." Lin Mu praised sincerely, "Can you tell me, do you know what color you are?"

"Actually, colors have different expressions in the eyes of different people. The eyes of blind people are all dark, and the eyes of colorblind people are all black and white and gray." Mingcheng said complacently: "Normal people have red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple eyes. "

Lin Mu listened attentively, his posture was to let Mingcheng play to his full potential.

"You have studied geometry, and it is relatively simple and straightforward to use the principles of geometry to answer your questions. One-dimensional straight lines have front and back, such as A Cheng; two-dimensional planes have more left and right, such as Missy; Like you."

"Brother Ah Cheng, I really admire you. You are worthy of growing up with my elder brother, and you can even imitate the pedantic atmosphere." Lin Mu patted Mingcheng on the shoulder with a book and said.

At this moment, Ming Lou came down from upstairs, heard this, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Brother." Lin Mu smiled and went upstairs, "Acheng said you are a four-dimensional space."

Minglou asked in a daze, "What do you mean?"

"Ask Ah Cheng." Lin Mu kicked the "ball" away mischievously, "I'll go to the eldest sister's room to study." After speaking, he ran happily past Minglou with his head down and smiled, and went upstairs.
