"Don't move!" "stand up!" "raise your hand!" The military police shrunk the encirclement from all directions until it was the size of a room.The black muzzles of the guns and the gleaming white bayonets were aimed at Su Guanlan from all directions, making a loud and piercing sound of metal clashing.The soldiers and police were panting heavily, covered in oil and sweat, and looked suspicious, not daring to approach any further; as if they were not facing a college student, but a bomb. "What do you want me to do?" Su Guanlan was still lying on her stomach, as if doing push-ups in gymnastics, calmly, "I am not allowed to move, but let me stand up and raise my hands..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" a grim-faced officer yelled loudly, "Stand up first, then raise your hands." "Hey, why did you change your appearance?" A donkey-faced police officer looked at Su Guanlan suspiciously. "That's right..." Shrunken Face frowned, and then called out, "Hey, who are you and how did you get here? Tell me!" Su Guanlan got up cursing.Several military police took advantage of the situation to pounce on him, grabbed him with all hands and feet, searched him all over his body, and did not let go until it was confirmed that there was no pistol or bomb.Su Guanlan vigorously dusted off the dust on her underwear, spit again and again, and grinned...

"Damn it, you still dare to laugh, laugh!" A soldier threw the butt of his gun at him, but Su Guanlan dodged it.However, this dodge caused him to touch the point of the bayonet of another soldier, his clothes were torn, and a wound was cut on his arm.He frowned and shouted angrily: "You bastards, what do you want?" "What, you still dare to scold us?" The soldier took a step forward and punched him.Su Guanlan immediately made a "riding post" posture, curled her fists, raised her arms, as if to fight back.There was a commotion among the soldiers, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.The grumpy-faced officer stopped the soldiers, his eyes were still rolling on Su Guanlan's body: "You said it!"

"What did you say?" "Who are you, what is your name, and how did you get here? Why did you run away just now, and where do you want to run away?" "Escape? I didn't escape at all!" Su Guanlan spread her hands, "I'm a university student from Qi, and I often come here to wander around, collect specimens, and investigate geology. I heard gunshots and shouts today, and I don't know what happened, especially the bullets. Flying over my head scared the hell out of me! So, I wanted to get away..." Another short officer with a pistol came up.This guy has a pockmarked face, dark skin, gloomy complexion, and two triangular eyes.Although he was short in stature, he had a high rank, and all the military and police officers respected him. Both the flat-faced officer and the donkey-faced police officer called him "Senior Staff Officer" and whispered in his ears for a while.Finally, he snorted twice, took a few steps forward, looked Su Guanlan up and down for a while, and asked in a nasal voice, "Well, you are from Qi University?"

The lad nodded. "what name?" "Su-Guan-Lan." "Which department?" "Faculty of Science, Department of Chemistry." "Do you know Lu Ning?" "I know, I know!" Su Guanlan nodded repeatedly, "Are you talking about Lu Ning from the medical school?" "What's your relationship with him?" "Student relationship!" "Hmph, classmate relationship..." The pockmarked face smiled coldly.After pondering for a while, he asked again: "Tell me, why did you help him escape?" "Who helped whom?" Su Guanlan blinked, "Also, who escaped, Lu Ning?"

"You're not very young, but you're quite cunning, huh!" At this moment, something happened behind Staff Officer Gao.He turned his pockmarked face for a look, and then turned his whole body around, gesticulating and nodding repeatedly: "Please come up, pastor." Priest, which priest?What are you doing here in the mountains?Su Guanlan was startled, and then saw the pastor from among the military police who were out of the way, and shouted: "Prome!" At the same time, Prome also saw him; the moment their eyes collided, other She was no less surprised than Su Guanlan.But the pastor quickly calmed down, and even squeezed out a smile on his face, but the muscles on his cheeks twitched a bit...

"Ah, it's Guanlan, Guanlan!" Bu Luomi said and nodded towards the pockmarked officer, "Staff Gao, don't get me wrong! He's not a bad guy. His name is Su Guanlan, a top student at Qi University." "Pastor, what's going on?" Su Guanlan stared at Bromi. "Oh, nothing, nothing! I'm afraid it was a misunderstanding, obviously a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding!" Bromil said repeatedly, "The government is arresting the fugitive, that guy ran from Qi Da, and ran in this direction. They let me Let's identify it."

"They said they wanted to capture Lu Ning..." "Oh, this, I don't know, I don't know." "You don't even know this, who are you going to identify?" "There are only so many students in the whole school. I at least know them all. I just need to identify if they are our students." "What if it's a student of Qi University?" "It's sad to have some black sheep, but sometimes it's unavoidable..." The pastor obviously didn't want to dwell on this issue, and suddenly put on a surprised expression, looked at Su Guanlan, and then looked around, "Hey, Guanlan, what is this?" Where is it, how did you get here?"

"I just came back from Shanghai. I used to collect specimens and investigate geology in this area. I have been away for more than a year. Today I deliberately got off at Baima Mountain in advance, and I want to see along the way..." "That's how it is. It's good to be back, it's good to be back! Yes, it's been more than a year since you left, you are taller, stronger, more energetic, and your knowledge must have improved a lot! Oh, wait a moment, I will tell you They talked about clearing up the misunderstanding, clearing up the misunderstanding, heh heh." Pastor Bromi pulled Staff Officer Gao and the flat-faced officer donkey-faced police officer aside, whispering to each other.But seeing those three people nodding repeatedly, they also stood at attention and saluted him one after another, then let the 20 or 30 people gather, lined up in a single file, and went down the mountain back to the city.Afterwards, Bromi turned his head and asked, "Guan Lan, where is your luggage?"

"Too many, check it in, go back to the station to pick it up." "You've always been wearing a school uniform!" Bu Luomi took a look at Su Guanlan. "I later felt that wearing a long shirt was quite comfortable..." "Uh, ok, ok," the pastor said, gesturing forward, "Let's go back to school and talk as we walk." Pastor Bromi is Chinese, both in nationality and blood, but he looks a lot like a "foreigner".Hence the legend that he was the illegitimate son of an American missionary and a Chinese woman.In fact, Bromi is not only Chinese, but also a native of Shandong; his parents are devout "religious people", and he also believed in religion since childhood, and later entered the seminary of Qilu University.After graduating, he went to Europe and worked as a monk in several monasteries in England, France and Italy.A few years ago, he went to the United States to participate in the work of the New York Christian Education Foundation, and was sent back to China by the association to work at Qilu University.

The senior clergy of the Christian Church must be tall, well-groomed, knowledgeable, eloquent, in order to convince the believers in terms of appearance and momentum, and recognize him as the messenger of God-from this point of view, Brome meets the standard.In addition to the above-mentioned general conditions that priests and pastors must possess, he also has the outstanding advantages of being humble, loyal to his duties, hard work, and strong in handling affairs; In addition to being the backstage of the foundation, it is also appreciated by Principal Chalud. Bromi's original surname is "Bu", but he is not called "Boluomi". "Bu" is one of the "hundred surnames" in China, and "Bu Luomi" is his "Christian name" in a British monastery.He suddenly worshiped Prometheus.At that time, Chinese translators usually translated "Prometheus" into "Prometheus", and it happened that Prometheus was a monk, so he took such a glorious "Christian name", which was inspired by the ancient Greek mythology. The light of the great gods.Prometheus once stole heavenly fire for mankind and angered Zeus, the main god. He was chained on the Caucasus cliff with a huge chain, and his liver was eaten by the condor every day. The wound healed at night, and the condor returned at dawn; he would rather suffer such torture Suffering and torment, but always no regrets.Prometheus has been used in European novels, poems and paintings since ancient times to symbolize the hero who dares to resist violence and sacrifice everything for the happiness of mankind. heaven... All in all, Reverend Bromi was gentle and courteous to all staff and students.Knowing the special relationship between the headmaster, Dr. Chalude, and the Su family, Bromi paid more attention to Su Guanlan's greetings.But, strangely, Su Guanlan still doesn't like him, she tries her best to avoid him, and often regards him as... a "snake" in her heart!Yes, this is the most apt metaphor.Oddly enough, most professors and students didn't like Brome either.Some naughty students also took advantage of the wicked legend and nicknamed him "Hughes the Bastard".This nickname is still spreading like wildfire and is widely known throughout the school.The reasons are, firstly, because Bromi always gives people a sense of artificiality, hypocrisy and eccentricity, and secondly, because I heard...I heard that Bromi is a "secret agent" of the authorities!Su Guanlan knew that this kind of statement would not be without origin. More than half an hour later, the two walked into the back gate of Qilu University along the curved dirt road.When they parted, Bu Luomi warned: "Guan Lan, go to the office building to complete the formalities, and don't be late." What Bromi was talking about was the enrollment procedures for current students.Even if the pastor didn't remind her, Su Guanlan would have rushed to the office building as soon as possible—wasn't he in such a hurry to leave Sister Qiong and return to Jinan in order to abide by the hellish rules? "Okay, okay, I'll go right away!" Su Guanlan nodded repeatedly. "Ah, Guanlan, there is one more thing—" Promi draws his voice, "After reporting for duty, please come to Xinghua Village." "Xinghua Village" is another name for the President's Office of Qilu University.Su Guanlan never wanted to go there.Therefore, he hesitated: "Is there something?" "Can I invite you?" The pastor shrugged. "What's the matter?" Su Guanlan felt uneasy. "I guess," Bromi smiled slightly, "it must be a good thing!"
