However, I never saw the person I was looking for, and I couldn't help thinking about retreating. I was sure what I saw that day wasn't an illusion, but people. I think this was silly, but there was no other way. Wu Jian had looked for the student status information, and nothing was found.

In the struggle to think about how to have a better way, I met the classmate who taught me that day.

"Oh, man, that's perseverance." He said hello to me first.

I also shook my head with a bitter smile: "I could not wait for her. I had waited in five canteens, but I always did not see her. I did not know if she was playing hide-and-seek game with me."

The classmate was surprised. "Five canteens? There were six canteens in our school, but basically nobody went to that one. Just look for these five."

The student's words let me stupefied for a while, and then I asked the matter about the sixth canteen. That classmate was reluctant for a long time, and only then said with me. I also knew why everybody only said there were five canteens.

The rest canteen existed when the University of Sishui University was building. Sishui University school had at least a hundred years of history, so the structure of the canteen was the former kind of earthen embryo structure, only one layer. The area was also small, and it survied only as a witness to history.

Earlier years, it also served as a special dining hall for the reception of VIP guests, but more than a decade ago, it was designated as a dangerous room, and was naturally abandoned. But I didn’t know why it opened again three years ago, and they didn't mention it was a dangerous room.

This canteen was called small canteen because it was close to the female dormitory, so many girls patronized it. We also knew that the places where there were many girls would have naturally many boys to eat. So the small canteen’s business was very hot.

But this kind of business did not last long. It was estimated that the owner of the contract canteen saw business good, and got black-hearted. From time to time someone from the meal ate pebbles, cockroaches and so on. Later it developed to the degree that the rats appeared directly in the soup. The girls could not bear this, and the business was slowly getting worse.

Later, I did not know how the canteen spread the rumor that there was a ghost in the canteen, so naturally no one would go again. The girls would rather go around than go to that canteen again.

Although the canteen was still open, it was a pair of old couple that was operating it. But it is no longer heard that someone ate some strange thing from the food. But we still habitually didn’t go to eat there. According to the classmate, even if you ate rare seafood, you couldn’t eat it in that place. Who knows if there would be any cockroaches or broken fingers in the next moment?

To tell the truth, no need to go, just by listening to what this classmate said, I already felt some nausea, and I did not believe that Lulu and the Queen would eat in such a canteen. But this small canteen was already in my mind.

In this way, after another two days of failure, I intended to go to the small canteen to have a look. No matter how, I would not let go of any clue.

The small canteen was on the side of a girl dormitory building, less than 30 meters away from the nearest dormitory. It was very close indeed, but the business was also as bad as that classmate said. I waited outside for half a day, less than three people entered. And most of their family was not very good. I looked at the sign hanging outside. The price of small canteen meals was one third cheaper than other canteens. You know, the school canteen price itself was not expensive. 1/3 of that price was, in my opinion, basically the cost.

From this I could see what the canteen was doing for a living, and I didn’t understand, even if I put a small food stall out there, I was afraid I was making more money than this.

The time for eating meal was almost past. The people in the small canteen were still very few, and not more than half of the small canteen were filled with people. I thought about it and took Xiao Tong into the room.

The small canteen inside was very clean. To say a word that is not against the will, it was much cleaner than my bedroom was. Although the tables and chairs were old, matching the clean environment and the historical atmosphere building, the small canteen gave a very high-end feeling. It's nothing like a school canteen.

I picked up a tray and walked toward the pickle mouth. The dishes were very rich, but the quantity of each kind of food was not big enough. It probably had something to do with the bad business, but it gave a delicate feeling.

And I also saw for the first time the couple that managed the small canteen. They were 50 or 60 years old or so. Their gray hair was done meticulously. There were no such smiles that businessman should specially show on the face, however. They were more like a professor than a cook. Dressed in uniforms that were very old, but very clean, not even folds.

The one who gave me the meal was the male boss. Seeing me walk over him, he didn’t say many words, but directly picked up the spoon on one side and said: "Eat what?" "I pointed to a few appetites, and then the male boss took a few of them, filled my tray, and gave me a spoonful of rice slowly, and put a big spoon away, ignoring me...

I swung the temporary card on the machine that the only modern stuff in the dining hall. With a tray of meal, I found a seat. I did not sit on the vacancies, but deliberately sat opposite a male classmate.

The boy's clothes had been washed a little white, and the dishes inside the tray were very simple: a bowl of rice, a small plate of sliced meat and a plate of pickled vegetables.

The voice of my putting down the tray shocked the classmate, and he looked up at me with a little astonishment, and then looked at Xiao Tong on one side, with a shy smile.

I smiled and nodded to him, and then sat down next to Xiao Tong. The eating speed of this classmate obviously accelerated a lot of. It seemed he was not very accustomed to eating with people.

I couldn't let him go so fast, so I said something: "You eat so little."

That classmate's face got slightly red, seeming a little embarrassed. I understood I just said the wrong words. This classmate's family looked not good. I would make him feel embarrassed if I said so.

So I retracted and said: "I had too much food, or we eat this food together." that, I almost gave myself a slap. Oh, my God. Wasn’t this almsgiving?
