Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 844

After washing up and eating the sumptuous breakfast prepared by the landlord himself, Dong Qiangqiang thanked the landlord and went out to the university.

In the morning, there is a class for the advanced stage of the master’s degree. The reason why Dong Qiangqiang does not skip class is that he is getting used to and accepting that he will have a lot of content that he does not understand every time. At least after class, he knows which tutorial book to turn to the corresponding chapter. He thinks this can be regarded as a happy and gratifying progress for him.

The snowflakes that were still floating in the morning did not turn into the moderate snow he expected, but disappeared from the sky, and the sky seemed brighter than in the morning.

Before entering the classroom, he called Lao Bai. Lao Bai and others have already passed Cologne and are sailing to Koblenz, known as the "German Corner". If there is no accident, they will arrive in Trier soon. .Dong Qiangqiang is really happy when he thinks that he will be able to see a lot of old friends soon.Yesterday Du Lan regretfully told him that she had to use the Christmas vacation to prepare for an exam at the end of January. She had no idea, so she couldn't come to Trier to spend Christmas with Dong Qiangqiang again.Dong Qiangqiang empathized with her state of mind and decision, and deliberately teased her: she had just left Trier not long ago, and he could still remember her appearance for at least half a year.These words provoked Du Lan to swear a few words in Northeast dialect, and the two hung up the phone reluctantly.

As Dong Qiangqiang expected, the number of people in the classroom was deserted, and there were less than 200 people in the lecture hall, which can usually be filled with 10 people.

The gray-haired professor is obviously not surprised by this situation (maybe he had a similar tradition when he was a student), and he still conscientiously and meticulously taught the only students, and he didn't give up because it was Christmas Eve and there were few people. Injection of lecture content.

I don’t know whether it’s the effect of the pre-study or the fact that Dong Qiangqiang’s lecture today is very good. He consciously understands 80%, which is far better than the previous two months. When he was secretly amazed, he sat not far behind him. Suddenly, the five foreigners stood up together and sang Christmas carols with broken voices, stiff necks, tone-deaf but very devoted.

The eloquent professor on the podium suddenly stopped, put the chalk back into the chalk box, and beat the time with a smile, but seemed to be dissatisfied with the students' out-of-tune style, the professor actually sang along with the students, raising his hands There seems to be an opera style in the room, and Dong Qiangqiang in the audience almost laughed out loud.

After singing the last sentence, the students threw the brightly colored confetti into the air of the lecture hall, and ran out of the classroom shouting "Merry Christmas".The professor smiled helplessly, picked up the chalk again and continued to give lectures. In the end, he dragged the get out of class for 10 minutes before dismissing the get out of class.

Walking out of the classroom, Dong Qiangqiang went to the library to renew the New Year's loan of reference books. The library was usually overcrowded and needed to grab a seat, and there was no one in sight. The huge university was empty, like an empty city.

The time agreed with the landlord was coming soon, Dong Qiangqiang drove towards home.When there were three high slopes away from home, he saw a German blue-collar worker unloading a gauze Christmas tree to the gate of the old lady's house.

When his car stopped, the other party's car had already driven downhill.

Naturally, Dong Qiangqiang would not let the landlord do it. He carefully moved the two-meter-high Christmas pine into the living room.

"This tree has to be far away from the fireplace." The old lady commanded, "Just stand in the middle."

The moment the gauze net hooped on the tree is removed, the fluffy pine branches immediately spread out in all directions, and the usually empty room immediately gives people a feeling of being filled.

"Leave the rest to me." The landlord reminded with a smile on his face, "By the way, don't forget that there is a Christmas market in the city today, and there is a sub-market next to it. You can go and learn about German Christmas and New Year traditions. , this is also a good opportunity for you to approach God and hear His voice."

Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart: The landlord's brainwashing for himself was really flawless, but this was the other party's belief and there was no malice, so he didn't bother to explain, and changed the topic: "Ms. Yulia, my friend and I have an appointment tonight Going to the Christmas market and not coming back tonight, I wish you a Merry Christmas Eve in advance! Merry Christmas! Smoothly slide into the new year!"

"Smoothly sliding into the new year" is a standard German New Year greeting that Dong Qiangqiang just learned from a German professor in the classroom during the day, and sold it to the landlord now.

"Thank you, and I wish you and your friends a Merry Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas!" the landlord said with a smile and turned his attention to the empty Christmas pine.

When the landlord's work was done, the time was getting closer, and it was estimated that Lao Ding would arrive soon, so Dong Qiangqiang didn't dare to delay, and went straight to the train station.

Lao Ding's train was 10 minutes later than expected, but in the end Dong Qiangqiang picked him up smoothly.

Ding Haifeng's brows did not have the same sad look as before, but his face became thinner and his legs became thinner.Wearing the large down jacket on him is like wearing someone else's clothes casually, it doesn't fit well. I think he has suffered a lot in the past few months.

When acquaintances meet each other, it is indispensable to reminisce about the past.

"Haifeng, I forgot to ask last time, are your ribs ready?"

"Thank you, Brother Dong, for your concern. I had a re-examination last month, and it should be completely cured." Afraid that Dong Qiangqiang would not believe it, Ding Haifeng patted his ribs arrogantly while speaking, to show that what he said was true.

"Be careful in the future." Dong Qiangqiang warned, "We have to protect ourselves outside, money is not the first."

"Brother Bai and Brother Lei often remind me of this, and I became very careful afterwards." Ding Haifeng's tone of voice made it easy to believe his sincerity, "I have been very careful since that time."

Dong Qiangqiang opened the rear door, watched Ding Haifeng stuff the heavy suitcase in, and couldn't help asking curiously: "You brought so many things here, are you planning to stay here permanently?"

"Ah? I'm not permanent, I'll leave tomorrow." Ding Haifeng smiled and closed the rear door, "You mean the box? It's for you and everyone to eat."

"Leave tomorrow?" Dong Qiangqiang thought everyone could stay until after New Year's Day this time, "So rush?"

"Well, there are exams in January and February, so I have to go back to study. Brother Bai and sister Le seem to be going to Northern Europe. Brother Lei may be on a tour. I don't know about the others."

Dong Qiangqiang sighed: "Success, I got it. Get in the car."

"Where are we going now?" Ding Haifeng asked while fastening his seat belt, "Where are we going to meet Brother Bai and the others?"

"They won't arrive in a while," Dong Qiangqiang opened the navigation and began to enter the address, "You accompany me to the customs first."

"Customs?" Ding Haifeng was taken aback, "You want to pick up someone? Then what, if you want to lead a group today, I can wait for you at the train station."

"It's not the airport customs, but the import and export goods customs." Dong Qiangqiang explained, "I'll explain it to you on the way."

Just as he was about to put down the handbrake, Ding Haifeng suddenly took out an envelope from his inner pocket and handed it to him: "Brother Dong, you lent me this before. Thank you for helping me so much last time. Now it is returned to the original owner. Please order it." a bit."

"Hey, you are..." Dong Qiangqiang was a little surprised by the other party's abruptness, and he was a little embarrassed, as if he owed the money instead of Ding Haifeng, "Didn't you say that it is not easy to find a job in Göttingen? You stay first. Come on, I'm in no hurry."

"Brother Dong is a good person, so I have to be ignorant." Ding Haifeng smiled naturally, "Now we all eat hot and spicy food with Brother Bai, so don't worry."

"Then I don't have an IOU."

"It's okay, just tear it up later." Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang still didn't want to accept it, Ding Haifeng simply opened the envelope, took out a stack of old banknotes from inside, and counted them carefully in front of Dong Qiangqiang.

It was only then that Dong Qiangqiang noticed that Ding Haifeng's hands were chapped, several dark red blood streaks criss-crossed on the back of his hand, the color of the back of his hand was comparable to that of an old banknote, which made him feel sad for a while.

After counting the money, Ding Haifeng's expression was extremely calm and happy, and his tone was relieved: "Brother Dong, please order again."

"No need to order, there will be no less." Dong Qiangqiang turned his head to the other side, pretending to look at the left rearview mirror, "Sit down! We're leaving now."

After communicating with the customs police yesterday, the facts turned out to be the same as Lao Bai's analysis: the problem lies in the medicine that Dong's father sent to Dong Qiangqiang.

Dong Qiangqiang knew little about chemical words, and the other party explained to him for a long time before he understood the other party's meaning: in the medicine sent by Dong's father, there was a certain chemical composition in the sugar coating of a certain medicine, and this chemical composition It is a contraband in Germany, so the customs police believed that he was suspected of smuggling contraband, but after verifying his identity and background, the police felt strange and called him over for questioning.

If he hadn't called Lao Bai in advance, Dong Qiangqiang felt that he would have been stunned on the spot.It was completely unimaginable to him that such unimaginable things could happen.He was glad that he didn't run away after answering the phone, but took the initiative to communicate with the police. Otherwise, if he was labeled as absconding in fear of crime, he would not have to think about continuing to study, and he could pack up and go to prison.

He immediately explained to the police that since the beginning of December, he has been suffering from stomach discomfort and diarrhea. He has been consulted in different clinics, and more than one German doctor has prescribed him medicine for diarrhea, but he was on time. After taking it, there was no effect, and it even escalated from diarrhea to dehydration.Despite this, he chose to continue to see a doctor, but as Christmas approached, the doctors in the city were basically on vacation, and the doctor outside the city prescribed the same medicine for him as the doctor in the city.He was going to take the final exam soon, and he didn't want to delay his studies and exams because of his illness, so he asked his family to send him the very effective medicine for treating diarrhea that he had taken since he was a child.

But first, he didn't know that there was something wrong with the sugar coating of this medicine, and second, Father Dong was allowed to buy, sell and mail those medicines in China.Dong Qiangqiang believes that if drugs are contraband in Germany, there should be a clear regulation between the domestic post office and the German post office to prohibit mailing, but obviously there is no such regulation between the two post offices, so this situation happened.And he is just an ordinary foreign student, and he really does not have legal knowledge in this area, so he hopes that the customs police can give him a fair chance to correct his mistakes after various investigations. His evidence is the bill he paid for medical treatment and Germany. A medical certificate issued by a doctor.

After listening to Dong Qiangqiang's statement, the customs police said that Dong Qiangqiang must submit evidence as soon as possible to cooperate with the police investigation, so Dong Qiangqiang made his second visit to the customs.

After submitting all the materials to the police, Dong Qiangqiang took back other postal items except medicines from the police.Before leaving, he asked the police who received him how long the investigation was expected to take, and the other party gave him an explanatory letter: The police will conduct an in-depth investigation on him after receiving the evidence he submitted, ranging from one month to 1-3 months at most. For months, before the police investigated him, he was a suspect. He was not allowed to leave Trier without authorization and had to be on call. He also had to go to the institution designated by the police for blood and urine tests from time to time within half a year.

Walking out of the gate of the customs police station, Dong Qiangqiang saw Ding Haifeng sitting in the car waving to him at a glance. He guessed that Lao Bai and others had already arrived in Trier, and hurried towards his pickup.

"Are they all here?" Dong Qiangqiang who opened the car door asked impatiently.

"Yes, it's at the exit of Highway 38. I looked, and it seems to be next to the Moselle River." Ding Haifeng pointed on the map with his hand, "Here, it's here."

Dong Qiangqiang dialed Lao Bai while looking at the location. As soon as he connected, he heard Lao Bai ask: "How is the situation?"

Knowing that Lao Bai asked about the customs, Dong Qiangqiang replied: "I have given all the materials to the police, and we are waiting for the results of the investigation."

"Relax, I'm sure you'll be fine." Lao Bai comforted him vowingly, "The police will know as soon as they investigate that you are stupid, otherwise they would have arrested you long ago, and they would have let you out?"

"Well, I think it's all right." Dong Qiangqiang glanced at his watch, "Why didn't you go into the city? Put your things in the hotel before going out. By the way, the supermarkets are closed early today, so I have to buy something for dinner now , I didn’t buy it in advance because I don’t know what you want to eat. There are still about two hours (the supermarket is closed), and it should be too late to buy now. You ask everyone what you want to eat tonight.”

"Everyone said to look at the Moselle River first before putting things in." Old Bai paused, "Everyone wants to see the tourist attractions here, maybe they will be useful in the future."

"How many people are there on your side? Du Lan can't make it through today, and I can't get in touch with Duanmu."

"I, Lele, Lei Lanting and his wife, brother and sister Lu Wei and Lu Shan, counting Lao Ding, there are seven in total."

"Lei Lanting and his wife?" Dong Qiangqiang wondered, "Is that the girl surnamed Zhang? Are they back together? Is she here too?"

"It's Xiaohe." Lao Bai pouted when he said that, and said it directly.

"Are they okay?" Dong Qiangqiang wondered, "What about Dong Yiqing? Didn't she say to come?"

"She was taken away by her classmates to go skiing, and she asked me to bring you a gift. By the way, you are the landlord, and you decide what to eat at night."

"It's okay to eat hotpot and dumplings if there are more people." Dong Qiangqiang was in a good mood after solving the trouble at customs.

"We are as guests as you want, and we all listen to you. We can eat whatever we want for a meal. We haven't seen each other for a long time. The main purpose is to get together and talk. No matter what we eat, we are happy. Besides, we also brought a lot of things, Everyone will leave tomorrow, and you don’t need to buy too much to avoid waste.”

Lao Bai’s statement was the same as Ding Haifeng’s. Dong Qiangqiang knew that he had already made a plan, so he no longer gave in, and said: “Then let’s make dumplings. Anyway, the beginning of winter, the winter solstice, the big cold and the cold are all eating dumplings. Lao Ding and I are in Together, let's go shopping now, you hang out by the river first, and then we meet in front of the big black gate in the city center?"

"Okay. See you later. Don't buy too much to avoid waste." Lao Bai emphasized again.
