Seeing that there is only less than the last week left in the last month of this year, Hongqi Forest Farm also organized a lively party like last year.
Although Ji Ma was unable to come back because he was filming a movie in Finland, and Wei Ran was unable to perform on stage due to lack of skills, the Time Film Studio established this year did not intend to let this opportunity pass.
Whether it is Gorman who is the director of the factory, Teacher Anna who is the deputy director, or even the girls who once studied at the Hongqi Forestry Farm and now work for the studio, they have put this year into perspective Once upon a time, the party was treated as a serious matter, and many programs were carefully prepared.
It is hard to imagine that Gorman, an old pervert who is good at torture, can also perform magic. Teacher Anna played a beautiful piano music. As for the girls under them, they also performed Many programs.
What was even more unimaginable to Wei Ran was that Mr. Nikolai, who was far away in Volgograd, actually came this time. Not only did he come, he even played a classic "" on the saxophone. "To Alice".
The lively party and the reception that followed had just ended. Wei Ran, who was wearing a formal suit, was called to the office alone by Teacher Dalia, and took a bulging document from his hand. bag.
"What is this?" Wei Ran asked, opening the document bag and taking out a thick stack of A4 paper inside.
"The questions that the other party may ask during your interview on February 20, and the answers as reference." Teacher Dalia motioned Wei Ran to sit down on the sofa, and continued with a smile, "Of course , you can also answer any questions raised by the other party according to your own ideas. In addition, there are some reference materials for your graduation thesis."
"Um...thank you" Wei Ran secretly said. He breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was another assessment task.
"You're welcome"
Dalia said, picking up a gift box from the table next to her, "And when you go to pick up those clothes, remember to put this New Year's gift Bring it to the other party."
"Is there anything else?" Wei Ran asked as he took the wooden box from the other party.
"Learn English before graduation," Teacher Dalia said in the end, "otherwise, you will never get a diploma."
"I...I will try my best," Wei Ran replied with a grin. road.
"That's it, Victor, Happy New Year."
"The New Year is coming, Teacher Dalia." Wei Ran responded respectfully.
"Okay, go to Moscow as soon as possible, don't let that old guy wait for you too long." Having said this, Dalia picked up the ticket on the table and handed it to Wei Ran, and then left the office. .
"It's such a joy to end this year..." Wei Ran, who was a little uncomfortable, muttered to himself, and then left the empty office with the document bag and ticket.
After resting one night at the Hongqi Forest Farm, Wei Ran said goodbye to many teachers, classmates and even the film production team early the next morning.The "colleagues" from the studio drove to the airport alone and boarded the flight to Moscow.
Like the last time he came to Moscow, Wei Ran borrowed a car and found the old and shabby tailor shop by following his memory.
When he entered the door, the first thing he saw besides the old man was a man wearing a navy lieutenant commander's uniform who looked about the same age as Culp. And a young man about his own age wearing gold-rimmed glasses and sportswear.
Before Wei Ran could speak, the old man who was playing with a tablet that had obviously just been unpacked just glanced at it casually and said proactively, "Sorry, we're closed today. If it's convenient, please Come back tomorrow."
Wei Ran looked at his peers who were teaching the old man how to use a tablet, and then at the major who was diligently wiping the shelves with a rag, Wei Ran nodded with a smile. He nodded, turned around and walked out of the store again.
"Grandpa, are you not doing business today?" The young man wearing glasses joked with a smile, "Normally it is rare for customers to come in your store."
"Don't make any noise."
The old man licked his fingers and swiped at the screen, "Teach me again, how to enlarge this thing?"
" Grandpa, you can read this without licking your fingers," the young man who was the same age as Wei Ran reminded him while suppressing a smile.
"Licking your fingers? Who licked their fingers? Of course I know you don't have to lick your fingers when using this thing." The old man argued while rubbing his saliva-laced fingers in his sleeves. road.
Wei Ran, who had already walked out of the door, smiled silently, helped close the clean store door, glanced at the floor-to-ceiling windows that had been replaced with new glass, and then stepped inside. Got into his car parked on the side of the road.
Finding a relatively clean hotel nearby to stay at, Wei Ran locked the door and opened the gift that Teacher Dalia asked him to bring to the old man just now.
This wooden box used to hold gifts is not sealed. What is inside is just a set of tools commonly used by tailors. Even this set of tools that seems to have never been used looks very different. It looked like it had seen some age, especially the big scissors, which had even grown rusty spots in some places.
After fastening the lid of the wooden box, Wei Ran simply stopped thinking about it, turned around, went downstairs and went into a small restaurant next to the hotel.
In the afternoon of the next day, when he drove to the tailor shop again, he found that the floor-to-ceiling windows he saw when he arrived yesterday were once again covered with colorful transparent tape.
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Wei Ran opened the store door and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that only the old man was waiting for him inside.
"I asked you to make an extra trip," the old man said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter"
Wei Ran ShakeShaking his head, he took out his wallet, took out the piece of cloth that the old gentleman gave him a month ago and handed it to the other party.
Taking the cloth, the old man pointed in the direction of the store door, "Lock it for me and close the curtains by the way. After everything is done, take off your clothes, everyone." The items were also placed on the table."
"Why don't you take off your clothes when you come in..."
Wei Ran muttered to himself, and followed the other party's instructions honestly. His car keys, wallet, cell phone, watch and other things were placed on the table one by one, and then he took off his clothes.
After a while, the old man slowly pushed out a dark brown leather 24-inch suitcase from the counter.
Slowly opening the suitcase, the old man took out a suit and handed it to Wei Ran, "Let's put this suit on first."
Hearing this, Wei Ran quickly took over the neatly folded clothes and started to put them on. This set of clothes was quite complete, from socks to ties, from leather shoes to shirts and even woolen vests. I even prepared some extra items like socks, shirts and pocket squares.
While he was changing clothes, the old man had already pulled out a floor-length mirror from the gap between the two shelves and wiped it carefully with a towel.
While Wei Ran was looking in the mirror, he took out a leather wallet and a pair of brown lambskin gloves from the suitcase.
When Wei Ran put on all these bits and pieces under the guidance of the other party, the old man walked around Wei Ran. After thinking for a while, he turned around and opened the counter. There is nothing else in this drawer. Apart from tie clips of different styles, there are watches of different styles, as well as various styles of cigarette cases, lighters and even sunglasses.
Contrary to his expectation, after making a lot of choices, the old man actually picked up a Wrigley watch produced in the Soviet era. Wei Ran remembered clearly that Ji Ma had found a piece of the same model from the abandoned military base, and that watch was still on Ji Ma's hand to this day.
"Put this on"
The old man compared the time displayed on the tablet on the counter, skillfully adjusted the watch and handed it to Wei Ran, explaining at the same time. , "This suit is the most formal and suitable for some serious occasions. At the same time, you should also remember these matching items on your body. These small things are the most suitable for your status as a historian, especially this watch produced in the Soviet era. It can easily connect you with the character of "History""
Looking at the serious and steady self in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, Wei Ran felt more and more deeply. Although the price of this custom-made suit is not low. But there is really nothing to say about this skill. If nothing else, as long as you pretend to be a little bit like you, with just this set of clothes, you might be able to easily sneak into some high-end places and show off your skills.
"The next step is the briefcase"
The old man slowly walked out of the cabinetHe took out an exquisitely crafted dark brown horsehide briefcase from the desk. After opening it, he displayed the leather-covered notepad and Parker pen inside, as well as some things such as business card holders and sunglasses. He said, "This briefcase and... The things inside are suitable for this suit. You can use it at ordinary times, but remember to take care of it regularly. Okay, if you have admired it enough, take off this suit now."
"Oh, okay. ! Okay!" Holding his briefcase and looking in front of the floor-length mirror, Wei Ran quickly started to take off his clothes.
“It’s very tiring to wear these clothes easily. Especially the soles of these leather shoes are definitely not comfortable to walk on.” The old man carefully folded the clothes Wei Ran took off. He said as he put it in the suitcase, put everything except clothes into the briefcase, this will prevent you from making mistakes.
After Wei Ran put away all kinds of things including watches, the old man took out a second suit and handed it to Wei Ran, and just like before, he explained while Wei Ran was changing clothes. Said, "The fabric used in this suit seems to be the most ordinary, but at least it is strong enough, and there are some changes in the tailoring, which is enough for you to do various violent movements without being restrained."
etc. After Wei Ran tied his tie, the old man actually took out an armpit holster and a leg holster from the suitcase and handed them over. He ignored the surprised look on Wei Ran's face and continued, "Simply put, this The suit is for work. It can make you look ordinary enough so that you won't stand out in the crowd. Likewise, it doesn't require too many accessories, not even a pocket square or tie clip. Watch, if you need it, just wear the one you wore before."
"Your craftsmanship is really amazing"
Wei Ran looked at himself in the mirror. He admired that this suit was really comfortable to wear on him. Not only did he not feel restrictive, but he didn't look as eye-catching in the mirror as before. He looked like an ordinary working-class person or someone who had just graduated from school. "Capitalist's lackey".
"Although the fabric of this dress is very strong, it is also very flammable."
The old man continued as if he had not heard Wei Ran's praise, "If you need It doesn't leave too many traces. Just use a lighter to burn the seam for up to five seconds, and you don't need to worry about the rest. Of course, this also makes this suit very resistant to washing, except for the shirt. If you can, try not to wash it, just wipe it with a towel if it's dirty."
"Where are the shoes?" asked Wei Ran, who was stepping on a newspaper with bare feet.
"Don't worry"
The old man took out a pair of lace-up leather shoes from the box, pointed the soles of the shoes towards Wei Ran, pointed to an inconspicuous metal wire on the edge and said, " The sole pattern of this pair of shoes can be changed. When needed, just pull the metal wire and apply force. Of course, this change is a one-time change. To put it bluntly, it is just cutting off a layer of sole, but the cut sole Also easy to ignite, andThe smoke when burning is very strong and very pungent. ”
“These are Soviet-era technologies? "Wei Ran finally couldn't help but ask.
"Just take it as it is."
The old man said nonchalantly, and then took out a bottle that was only half the size of a cigarette. He handed over the metal tube and said, "There is a poison needle inside, which is enough to kill anyone as long as it is filled with poison. It can usually be fixed on the belt buckle of this suit."
Of course, it is very safe as long as the top buckle is locked. When using it, just hold the red end with your fingernail. Unscrew it counterclockwise from the middle to add other toxins and use it repeatedly. As for the toxins, you can go to your teacher to find a way. I don’t have that kind of thing here. ”
Taking this inconspicuous little metal tube, Wei Ran untied the belt he had just tied, fixed it on it and looked at it, and quickly understood how to use it.< /p>
"The last one is the briefcase that matches this suit of clothes."
The old man took out another black briefcase from the counter that looked rough in workmanship, "This bag doesn't have There are too many functions, but bulletproof materials are used inside. Although it cannot stop a rifle, it can at least block a normal-caliber pistol bullet without much problem. "
While speaking, the old man opened a hidden zipper on the briefcase, and then unfolded the briefcase into a long strip four times the size, and there was even a hole in the middle that was big enough to A large square with a round hole for his head to fit into.
Under the command of the old man, he put on the recommended bulletproof vest and removed the buttons on both sides. Wei Ran shook his head in confusion. This thing is ugly. It’s a bit ugly, but if it can block bullets as much as the other party said, it’s not bad.
“Okay, let’s take off this suit too. "
The old man waited for Wei Ran to figure out how to use it, and immediately took out a third set of clothes, "This set is casual wear, you can wear it on less formal occasions. You can match the accessories according to your needs. Apart from the fact that the fabric is pretty good, there is nothing special about it, but at least it can make you look handsome. ”
Put on the third set of clothes, which is a combination of overalls, Martin boots, a cowhide belt and a sweater. Although it looks ordinary, it is really comfortable to wear, especially when wearing it. Paired with a woolen windbreaker, it looks much more stylish than the down jacket I wore when I came here.
This 1.2 million rubles is really not wasted...
Wei. Ran An muttered to himself, and then did not take off the clothes. Instead, he directly opened the backpack he brought. The cash inside, together with the gift Dalia asked him to send, was given to the person whose name he did not even know.
The old man opened the wooden box and took a casual look. The old man was very happy, and he didn't even count the money paid by Wei Ran, and just put it in the counter drawer.
After putting away the box of tailoring tools, the old man pointed to the suitcase at his feet, "Okay, you can use these things."You can take it away. If those two formal suits need repairing in the future, you can come to me here at any time. "
Wei Ran thanked you respectfully, "Thank you, I will definitely trouble you again if necessary in the future. "
"Forget it thanks, as long as I am still alive, I can come over at any time. "
The old man hesitated for a moment when he said this, then lowered his voice slightly and asked, "Young man, are you about to graduate from Dalia's hands? "
Seeing the look of surprise on Wei Ran's face, the old man waved his hand kindly, "Okay, just pretend I didn't ask, little guy, I hope you have more chances to wear your first formal suit. The more you have, the more hopefully you’ll never need a second formal suit. ”
Wei Ran was stunned for a moment, then said thank you in an increasingly sincere tone, and then left this inconspicuous shop with his suitcase and two briefcases stuffed into paper bags.
