Three days passed in the blink of an eye in the third week of July. Dong Qiangqiang went to Lu Wei's former dormitory several times while practicing driving, hoping to find the boy who was caught by Wang Shunan that night. He believed that the boy most likely lived in that student dormitory building. He planned to find the dormitory number first and then talk to him about the note.
I don't know whether Dong Qiangqiang went there at the wrong time or was discovered by the other party. He kept attacking for four days without even seeing the other party's figure.
The road test was coming, and Dong Qiangqiang couldn't catch anyone, so he had to give up. Fortunately, no new notes appeared from Tong Lele's side, which made Dong Qiangqiang a little relieved.
Friday at 12 noon was the final deadline to register for the Hannover University Preparatory Examination, but until Thursday morning, Dong Qiangqiang did not receive a call from his father saying that he had obtained the AP certificate.
Seeing that the time was getting closer, Dong Qiangqiang also became anxious. He tried to contact his father, but Dong's father's cell phone went unanswered.
He was finally looking forward to a phone call, but it was Lao Bai who took some time out of his busy schedule to call and wish him good luck in his road test.
The weather in Germany in July is as unpredictable as a child's face. A cloud came from nowhere early in the morning and started to drizzle. After hanging up the phone from Lao Bai, Dong Qiangqiang discovered that Xiaoyu had unknowingly upgraded to Zhongyu.
Dong Qiangqiang drove a few times in rainy days when he was practicing in June. He was not very worried, but he saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was a faint sound of thunder. He didn't know whether the road test would be cancelled, so he called the driving school anxiously, but got an affirmative reply from the other party, saying that he was still the first test taker today.
Dong Qiangqiang did not expect that such a situation would occur, so he could only walk out of the house angrily holding an umbrella.
In Germany, there are two different authoritative organizations responsible for assessing candidates' road driving skills. One is the Municipal TV Bureau in Hannover. TV is the abbreviation of tehniher berwahngvere in German, which means the German Technical Supervision Association. The predecessor of this association is responsible for testing cars. of quality safety and supervision of driving license examinations. The other is the Municipal Dekra Bureau in Hannover, which in German is dether kraftfahrzeg berwahngvere, which is the German Motor Vehicle Inspection Association, another authoritative organization for automobile safety appraisal and testing in Germany. Candidates can choose one of the driving schools to apply. In addition to the office locations of the above two institutions, candidates can also choose their own driving school as the starting point for the road test on the day of the test. For example, Dong Qiangqiang chose to start from his own driving school this time.
When Dong Qiangqiang held an umbrella and faced the slanting wind and drizzle, he finally walked to the street where the driving school was located. Only then did he realize that a white Volkswagen PL had parked quietly on the side of the road in the wind and rain.
Next to the car stood two people holding umbrellas, one tall and one short. One is Ms. Karina, Dong Qiangqiang’s coach, and a tall, middle-aged man with stocky brown hair. He had triangular eyes, an aquiline nose, a straight nose and a wide mouth. He looked like a man who was not easy to talk to, and he was looking gloomily in the direction where Dong Qiangqiang came from.
Dong Qiangqiang had just walked to the car. Before he could say hello, he heard a middle-aged man ask sharply: "Are you the first test taker today?"
Unlike the English vocabulary that only has "you", Germans generally use "you" when talking to strangers, but this kind of address is different from the "you" that Beijingers use when talking to each other. Beijingers say "you" with a lot of politeness and respect, while Germans say "you" mainly to keep a distance from each other, even between elders and strangers and juniors. Now the other person said "you", and Dong Qiangqiang immediately felt the other party's unfriendliness keenly.
"Oh, hello. I'm Dong Qiangqiang. Nice to meet you." Although it was inconvenient to hold an umbrella, Dong Qiangqiang still extended his hand respectfully and said politely.
"You are two full minutes late." The middle-aged man ignored Dong Qiangqiang's overtures. He turned his wrist to look at his TAG Heuer watch and stretched out two fingers. "If being late can veto a candidate, you are already here now." Failed.”
The other party spoke very harshly and was indeed very unfriendly.
Dong Qiangqiang knew that people had to bow their heads under the eaves, and this time it was indeed his fault. He immediately bowed his head and apologized: "I'm really sorry for keeping you and Ms. Karina waiting for so long. This was my negligence. Please forgive me. "
The middle-aged man stared at Dong Qiangqiang, snorted coldly, and turned his attention to Karina.
Karina knew that Dong Qiangqiang was never late for driving lessons, and what happened today was probably related to the bad weather. However, she also knew that directly interceding for Dong Qiangqiang was not necessarily a good thing, so she quickly changed the topic: "Mr. Dong, this is your examiner today. Mr. Guth. He is one of the most professional examiners at the Hannover TV Bureau.”
Dong Qiangqiang was grateful to Karina for helping him out. He quickly got off the donkey along the slope and said respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Gut. I have long admired your name."
"Then let's start?" Karina tentatively asked Gut.
After hearing this, Dong Qiangqiang was about to turn around and pull the driver's door when he heard Gut shout: "Don't rush to get in the car yet."
Dong Qiangqiang was stunned, and slowly moved his hand away from the car door handle. At the same time, he looked at Gut in confusion: "Don't you want to get in the car?"
"Come here and answer a few questions first." Gut said, walking around to the front of the car in two steps, holding the umbrella handle between his cheek and shoulder.
He lifted up the front hood with one hand, and skillfully picked up the front hood support rod with the other hand to support the hood. Then he returned the umbrella to his hand and raised his chin towards the engine area: "Please point out this The main structure of a car engine.”
Although Dong Qiangqiang understood the other party's question and knew what parts were in the engine, he could only explain it clearly in Chinese. He could also recognize the German words for these parts if they appeared on the paper, but he was asked to speak in German. It’s really difficult to tell them all. Although he was quick-witted, he still couldn't help but stutter. He could only rack his brains to think about it, while speaking out word by word: "Well, the structure of the engine...including the cylinder block, cylinder liner...well, the cylinder Cover, and cylinder gasket...intercooler..."
"Is this car turbocharged?" Gut approached Dong Qiangqiang and asked with a straight face, "Did you see clearly?"
Dong Qiangqiang's sweat dropped to the ground. He remembered what was said in the textbook: Generally, only turbocharged cars have intercoolers.
Gut did not give Dong Qiangqiang more time to think, and continued to ask: "As the driver of this car, please tell me whether the engine oil of this car is enough?"
This question is simply a scoring question. Dong Qiangqiang knew it when he was learning to drive in China. Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly saw the gloomy face of the other party and thought: This question shouldn't be that simple.
He thought for a moment and asked, "How long has this car been parked here?"
Gute stared at him expressionlessly and grinned: "Now it's me who tests you, not you who tests me."
Dong Qiangqiang reached out and touched the engine, then went to the back of the car to explore the exhaust vent, and then returned to Gut: "I can answer your question, but before that, I need to drive the car for a while. distance."
"Why?" Gut raised his eyebrows.
"Because if this car was parked here last night, or if it was parked here for more than an hour, considering the current weather and outdoor temperature, I am afraid that the oil level measured by it now is also inaccurate." Dong Qiangqiang finally He regained his confidence and said, "Another point is that this car is not parked on a level ground, but is slightly lower in the front and higher in the back."
Gut looked around without saying a word, then suddenly closed his umbrella and got into the passenger seat of the car in two steps.
Upon seeing this, Karina also walked towards the back seat of the car. When she passed by Dong Qiangqiang, she patted his back gently, as if to encourage him or urge him to get in the car quickly.
Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, wiped the rain off his face, and got into the car.
There are more and more black clouds in the sky, and the rain is getting heavier and heavier. It seems that someone has been wronged and can't stop crying.
