Rebirth one way to the north
Chapter 67
When Xia Duo returned to the dormitory, he grabbed his elder brother and wanted to call Mo Bei, but he put it down after thinking about it.
After bowing his head and thinking for a while, Xia Duo went to take a shower first, washed and hung the dirty clothes as usual, and then took his mobile phone to an empty place on the top floor to make a few phone calls.Then he leaned on the chest-high fence, silently looking at the campus and waiting.
There were echoes of the several phone calls I made.By the time the last call came back, it was already past dinner time.Xia Duo went back to the dormitory and dug out a bag of bread and two ham sausages, filling his stomach carelessly.
There was no class the next afternoon, so Xia Duo went directly to Sun's house, and it turned out that Mo Bei was here.
As soon as she saw Xia Duo, grandma pulled him guiltily and said, "Look, I made you all mess up, and you all blame me for being an old idiot."
Xia Duo had already understood the whole story, so he was busy talking to Mo Bei to comfort his grandma.Fortunately, grandma has calmed down a lot in the past few days. She didn't want to worry everyone, so she slapped her thigh pretendingly: "Hey, no matter how confused you are, don't you have to bear it? Who told me to be a grandma. Okay, grandma Go eat something delicious, and you won’t worry if you have food in your stomach.”
The old man has things to do and can be distracted, so Mo Bei hurriedly ordered: "Grandma, I want to eat tiger skin pepper."
Xia Duo also said, "Grandma, I want to eat wontons."
Grandma said: "Okay, grandma will chop stuffing. I lost weight after eating in the cafeteria. It's a pity."
After coaxing grandma out, Mo Bei asked Xia Duo, "Where did you hear that?"
"My classmate, her father works for the newspaper."
"A reporter from the Evening News? He was the only one who had a reporter at his house, but my uncle said hello and took down the manuscript. The reporter was not convinced and wanted to sell the manuscript to another newspaper."
"and after?"
"Well, I heard that he accidentally fell while walking, knocked his chin to the ground, almost bit off his tongue, and had several stitches. It probably won't be possible to go out for interviews for a while."
It sounds like Gong Xiaobai's Fauvism style, direct, fierce and effective.
For that reporter, Mo Bei has no sympathy at all. If it is really an interview without personal subjective color, it will be fine, but he presupposes many premises that are not good for Mo Bei, and uses inductive language in the interview. What the uncle said, after he was kicked out in a rage, he tried to force them to continue to accept the interview under the guise of the right to know.If he doesn't teach him a lesson, Mo Bei himself will not be able to swallow this breath.
Xia Duo felt that this kind of punishment was a bit too much, but he couldn't change what had happened.Besides, even if Gong Xiaobai hadn't attacked the reporter yet, if Mo Bei was really angry and wanted to be punished, even if Xia Duo had to do it himself, he would do it.
His principles have always been tantamount to nothing in front of Mo Bei.
"I think this matter is developing a little too fast, as if someone is secretly manipulating it." Xia Duo expressed his doubts.
Mo Bei nodded, "I think so too. Although my grandma told people about my writing, she immediately knew that she had missed the point. So when someone asked me what book I wrote, my grandma tried to get around it. The people present were all old neighbors from the old neighborhood. Grandma told them not to spread the matter. At that time, everyone agreed well. But afterward, the matter not only spread, but even my pen name was made public."
"There are not many people who know that you are from Latitude 37 North, but they are all from our own family, and no one will say it casually." Xia Duo paused as he spoke, his expression changed slightly.When Sun Lihua held a banquet for Mo Bei's book writing, there were only three outsiders at the banquet, him, Wei Yuxuan, and Xia Chengyu.He himself has never told anyone that Wei Yuxuan's mouth is also very strict. Could it be that Xia Chengyu revealed it by accident?
Mo Bei looked at Xia Duo's face, and he knew where he was thinking as soon as he changed his mind. He smiled and said, "Although it is only known to a small area, outsiders can actually find it if they want to check it. At first, my correspondence The address is all my dad’s, and if you find him, you can find me by following the clues, all it takes is a little imagination. It wasn’t exposed before, just because no one looked it up.”
"Meow—" the kitten pushed open the door and came in, circled around Xia Duo's feet, and jumped onto his lap.
Xia Duo smoothed the kitten's fur. He thought about it carefully. What Mo Bei said was indeed correct. His concealment of the identity of North Latitude 37 was actually very rough. In the early days, Mo Xiangyang made the transfer, and later it was Wei Yuxuan. Help, but it's just a layer of obstacles in the middle.If someone analyzes the usual behavior of Mo Xiangyang or Wei Yuxuan, it is easy to know that they will not be the real N37, then the real N37 must be someone who has close contacts with them.If the investigation continues like this, the possibility of finding Mo Bei will increase greatly. In the end, as Mo Bei said, as long as that person has a bit of imagination and dares to speculate boldly, he can judge that Mo Bei is 37 north latitude.
Zhang Xiaoguang and N37 have known his true identity for many years, not because Mo Bei hid it well, nor because Zhang Xiaoguang is too stupid, but because he is a gentleman, respects N37's right to privacy, and didn't really bother to find out. What to peep.
"But, who is going to check me in secret? What is the purpose of checking me? Grandma said that leaking the truth is an opportunity that will come to your door automatically, but he can seize this opportunity so quickly and spread the word. This is not easy. But the purpose of publicizing this matter is to make people believe that I am a liar? Do you believe that my family members are all liars?" Mo Bei shook his head, "No, to prove that those novels were indeed written by me It's not a difficult task, and the rumors about the liar will naturally melt away. Then what is this person trying to do?"
The kitten thought Xia Duo was too absent-minded in smoothing his hair, so he turned his head and grabbed Xia Duo's slender fingers, gritted his teeth, and fled arrogantly into Mo Bei's embrace.
Mo Bei added: "Little uncle said that the reporter came to interview because he received a phone call to break the news. Generally, the newspaper society rewards people who provide effective news clues, but this person who broke the news did not leave any contact information. Little uncle Can't find out who he is."
Xia Duo said: "I called a few friends and asked them to keep an eye on the newspaper. If anyone else wants to make a fuss about this, they should be able to get some clues. However, how do you deal with this matter now? "
Mo Bei sighed softly, "If it wasn't for worrying about the mysterious person's follow-up actions, in fact, he would just do nothing and wait for the limelight to pass. And things can be controlled within the cloud, and those who know will not A lot. Now, it’s actually easy to handle. I’ll make a statement to explain why I hide my identity. Although it may cause more discussions, it’s not illegal to write novels while concealing my age. On the contrary, it’s a good story As for proving that I am the author, firstly, I can compare handwriting, and secondly, I have drafts and outlines that can be used as evidence. Although these cannot completely dispel other people’s suspicions, unless they are people with ulterior motives, they will generally not keep pestering them. Go on. If it is purely from the perspective of fame, such a publicity is still an advertisement for me, and more books will be sold in the future."
Xia Duo smiled cooperatively, "Yes, I can show off to others in the future, do you know 37 north latitude? That's me—" He leaned close to Mo Bei's ear, whispered a few words, and followed the trend North kissed on the earlobe.
Mo Bei was speechless at his act of seizing every opportunity to take advantage. He pinched the kitten's paw and slapped Xia Duo.
Xia Duo hurriedly thanked the kitten: "Thank you, Mr. Cat, for not showing your nails."
Although the words are easy to say, troubles are inevitable in the actual processing process. Fortunately, there is Gong Xiaobai escorting in the cloud, and Wei Yuxuan and Zhang Xiaoguang in the publishing industry as endorsements-Zhang Xiaoguang is really a good person, and Mo Bei called him After calling to explain the situation, he also expressed understanding and support after being surprised. After all, he also felt that if he knew that Latitude 37 was a child from the beginning, he might not be able to help but look at it with curiosity and prejudice.
And just as Mo Bei expected, his affairs had nothing to do with the national economy and the people's livelihood, and soon everyone's attention was diverted by other news, and no one would keep staring at him.At most, the turmoil caused among some acquaintances would last longer. For example, when Mo Xiangyang went back to work, the doctors would half-jokingly ask him for advice on how to train a writer; Being pointed at, "Do you know? Mo Jie's younger brother is a writer!"
In this regard, Mo Jie was unexpectedly calm: "What's the matter? Before, other classmates pointed at me and said, 'Do you know that Mo Jie's younger brother can get high marks in the exam even if he doesn't go to school!'"You Do you know? Mo Jie’s younger brother seems to have some strange disease, and now he can’t even go to school!’ Now it’s just a new way of saying it, and I’m used to it.”
Not only that, but Mo Jie no longer brings her classmates back to her grandma's house to play like she used to.She doesn't want people to visit her brother like a giant panda.
This made Mo Bei a little guilty. When Xia Duo went to Shenzhen again, he asked him to bring a lot of clothes, stationery and gadgets that girls would like to please his sister.Mo Jie accepted them all with a smile.
In addition, because the information flow is not as fast as when there was the Internet, although Mo Bei disclosed his identity in the form of an interview with a newspaper reporter, there are not many readers who know about it.Some reporters wanted to seize the youngest reasoning writer in China to make news, but because of Mo Bei's refusal to interview, they didn't make any waves.
Although the voices questioning the fraud appeared as expected, but because Mo Bei handled it properly and his attitude was calm, it was nothing but wind and water after all.
But when things gradually calmed down, Mo Bei felt uneasy instead.
That mysterious person didn't do any more tricks, as if he disclosed the identity of North Latitude 37 just to help Mo Bei become famous and let people know that there is such a talented young writer in China.
It's too weird.
After bowing his head and thinking for a while, Xia Duo went to take a shower first, washed and hung the dirty clothes as usual, and then took his mobile phone to an empty place on the top floor to make a few phone calls.Then he leaned on the chest-high fence, silently looking at the campus and waiting.
