In a security car, people were chatting loudly.
The pollution was solved, and the crisis on the other side was resolved. As the "first evil worker" and "first witch", Zhou Gong and Qiao Shang naturally knew the truth. The two were shocked by the turmoil on the other side, and then by Yin Ren's identity as the Great Heavenly Master. In the end, the two expressed polite but passionate greetings to Fu Xingchuan for forcing the Great Heavenly Master and the fear of fear into the competition.
Luo Wanxiang and Sangjie had just recovered, and the two girls were still kept in the dark: "So the people from the Haigu branch were promoted like this? We will definitely not lose in the next competition next year!"
Qiao Shang turned his head and looked out the window in silence.
Zhou Gong's usually cheerful round face also looked a little depressed.
The Yandu branch suffered the biggest loss this time - Fu Tianyi's partner Tao Lan died in the attack on Fu's residence, and Dr. Meiqiu from the Science Hill decided to stay on the other side. The Yandu branch finally caught a "god", but the god ran away from home the next day.
Dr. Coalball claimed that the other side of the world was not much different to it. It was just that the loners were quite respectful to it, and there were many projects to study on the other side, so it chose to stay there temporarily.
Taking into account scientific research-related issues, the Yandu Branch is willing to retain Dr. Meiqiu's salary and benefits.
Unfortunately, there is a huge difference between being on-site and being listed as a member.
Of the group C personnel brought by Yandu, only Fu Tianyi was left. The young and energetic young man was seconded by Haigu and seemed to have participated in the "Transformation Plan". Fu Tianyi's strength increased several times, but he looked like a mineral water bottle that was stepped on by 10,000 feet at a waste station, with a sad look in his eyes.
Zhou Gong smiled and found a topic to talk about: "Xiao Fu, are you sure you don't want to go back to the Fu family?"
He reached out and gave her a gentle push on the back.
I don't know what this guy has been through. He was too lazy to even go back to his hometown. If Zhou Gong wasn't good at identifying spiritual weapons, he would have thought that this Fu Tianyi was Fu Xingchuan wearing a mimic headgear.
"I want to go back to training and learning," he said.
They live in a space of their own imagination, wandering in a world formed by the consciousness of all things. They have seen monsters everywhere and the most absurd dreams.
There may be more than just these things hindering her progress at the moment.
On the contrary, Zhong Chengfeng likes this dish very much.
"What are you mumbling about?"
"It's a good thing for young people to be hardworking, but they can't be impatient for success." Zhou Gong habitually advised, "You are already very good now, and your contribution this time is also very great. Don't worry about those two people in Haigu..."
This neighborhood was well maintained, but time had passed and no matter how well it had been repaired, it couldn't hide the oldness of the buildings. Twenty-nine years ago, on the day she left, her first-floor neighbor had just replaced the security windows. She remembered that the security windows were shiny silver and reflected colorful shadows.
Twenty-nine years on the other side is longer than the time Zhong Chengfeng has lived in the world. Her mental age is actually over fifty. Zhong Chengfeng can understand her parents' adoption of her younger brother, and she doesn't care that her younger brother is a big shot, and she doesn't intend to interfere with her younger brother falling in love with another legendary figure.
She had thought she wouldn't be startled by anything, wouldn't be frightened by anything.
Zhong Youde muttered: "Xiao Yin's friend? Xiao Yin wouldn't just bring him to our house for dinner. He knows how to count..."
Before the final battle with love, in order to stabilize the morale of the troops, Yin Ren pulled her and Meng Huai together and confessed a lot of "unimportant little things". For example, he also has a name called "Zhong Yi", and Zhong Cheng said that it was actually the ancient "fear" that melted into human flesh.
Fu Tianyi now has no feeling of resentment.
The last time she stood here, her parents were strong and straight-backed. They had more black hair than gray, and they both had smiles on their faces.
"With Xiao Yin as his guide, our son has made great progress." Zhong Youde raised his voice, "With Xiao Yin, he now has two friends!"
She had been awake and active the whole time, and did not need to rest for as long as other survivors. On the day of the medical examination, she was picked up by Zhong Chengshuo and Yin Ren.
Fu Tianyi turned his eyes away numbly and hummed.
Cheng Xuehua was placing cups on the sofa. Hearing this, she chuckled twice: "Come on, don't be too happy too soon. Maybe it's Xiao Yin's friend."
Yin Ren poked Zhong Chengshuo's waist and shook his head gently.
"Go and end their last regret."
There are too many things he can't do, so it's not bad to do what he can do.
Zhong Youde's originally high spirits became a little depressed. He sighed and closed the lid of the stew pot.
Zhong Chengfeng stopped under a familiar building.
Fu Tianyi himself was in a state of stagnation.
He also specifically asked for the stewed pork ribs with potatoes made by Zhong Youde.
"Oh." Zhong Cheng said and ran away.
But now, standing in front of the familiar corridor, she didn't dare to take a step forward.
Zhong Chengshuo and Yin Ren were honored as the "heroes who made the greatest contribution to the pedestrian street case" and were commended by the city. Shi An also specifically mentioned that he wanted to give them a major award, and the old couple were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. Yin Ren had already said hello in the group that he would bring Zhong Chengshuo and a friend to his home for dinner to celebrate in the evening.
Zhong Youde said quickly: "Xiao Yin is a strange kid. I remember that he likes to eat meat and doesn't eat potatoes much. Our son doesn't eat anything too heavy, but..."
"I applied for medical assistance from Shi'an. If my parents have any health problems, they can get help immediately." Zhong Cheng said carefully when he saw that she was reluctant to move forward. "And they are not top scientific posts, Yin Ren can also help save people."
Zhong Chengfeng took a deep breath: "... Can you guys walk ahead of me?"
"They have never forgotten you. They are old, but they were very loving in the past and are in good health now. For mortals, most of their lives have been smooth."
While the three of them were dawdling downstairs, Zhong Youde was busy in the kitchen.
Now it is covered with rust marks and scratches, the surface is uneven, and the screws are covered with thick rust and dust.
Having seen countless strange things, and with a big battle ahead, Meng Huai and Zhong Chengfeng were in a fairly stable mood.
In this battle, there are more than just Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo fighting.
"I'm still a long way from that," he answered calmly and sincerely, "I just want to go back as soon as possible - maintaining order is more important than competing for supremacy."
Meng Huai and Zhong Chengfeng were both in their early twenties when they disappeared, only a few years older than him. Huang Jin dared to use his true body to send down the great Yuanwu Qi Xin, and Ge Tingting made a wish to nail the coffin lid on the love. And he… He just chopped the meat and threw the magic throughout the whole process, and was always protected behind the front line.
How wonderful, she thought.
"I dare not."
The security door rang three times in an orderly manner, neither too loud nor too soft, with just the right rhythm. It was immediately clear that it was Zhong Cheng who was speaking.
“Here we come!”
Cheng Xuehua held the cup and rushed to the door in high spirits. Zhong Youde in the kitchen quickly pricked up his ears to listen to who this friend was.
What awaited him was the sound of glass breaking on the ground.
After a few seconds of dead silence, Cheng Xuehua's low sobs were heard.
Could it be the bad guy pretending to be Zhong Cheng? ! Zhong Youde was shocked. He didn't care about spying on the enemy, he just grabbed the kitchen knife and rushed out of the kitchen: "Don't move, we were the police before..."
The second half of his sentence got stuck in his throat.
He saw his daughter standing at the door of his home, being held tremblingly in his arms.
Just like the photos that the couple had looked through countless times, their daughter's face had not changed at all, except that she was a little thinner than when they left. Before the three of them entered the house, Zhong Chengfeng's face was covered with tears, and his breath was white mist in the air conditioning. She was still alive.
“Feng Feng…” Zhong Youde called out as if in a dream.
The lonely son found his true love, and they both made achievements in their work. The daughter who had disappeared for nearly 30 years returned home as expected, and a reunion dinner was cooking on the stove. Everything was too smooth and beautiful, it was definitely his dream.
There is no such thing in the world.
Yin Ren coughed twice. "Cheng and I went on a business trip some time ago... Sister Cheng Feng and her friends were trapped there, and we took her out. The environment there is a little special, so Sister Cheng Feng hasn't changed much, and she is in very good health."
Zhong Cheng said as he helped the mother and daughter into the house. Once the heavy security door was closed, the cold air was once again isolated outside the door. He took a few steps forward and snatched the kitchen knife from Zhong Youde's hand.
He opened the old man's trembling hand with his fingers and felt his son's body temperature. Only then did Zhong Youde come back to his senses.
Whether it was a dream or not, Zhong Youde was unable to think. The old man stumbled forward, hugged his long-lost relative, and finally burst into tears.
This touching meeting ended with the smell of stewed potatoes and short ribs starting to burn.
Smelling the burnt smell, the emotion and gentleness on Yin Ren's face suddenly disappeared. He rushed into the kitchen and rescued the pot of spoiled meat.
This little episode had little impact. After all, except for Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo, the other three had no appetite for dinner. At night, the two elders of the Zhong family still held Zhong Chengfeng's hand, unwilling to let go.
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Yin Ren hurriedly intercepted Zhong Chengshuo who had just put on a night cap. Unfortunately, before Zhong Chengshuo could even ask any questions, the great master grabbed him by the waist, tucked him under his arm, and tore open the space to take him home.
"Give them some time alone." Yin Ren said earnestly and put Zhong Chengshuo back to his bedroom.
Zhong Cheng thought about it for a few seconds and agreed.
"You asked me to change your wish before, wanting to find out the truth and the murderer, and it was fulfilled. My father made a wish to me, wanting to find my sister, and I also fulfilled it."
Zhong Cheng said as he lay flat on his back in the quilt, adjusting his nightcap with satisfaction. A winged creature expertly slipped into the quilt and was caught by him.
"Now all that's left is your wish to 'protect the sea valley'. You said you would complete it with me." He emphasized.
"Of course." Yin Ren also crawled into the quilt. The two of them stuck together, and the quilt became warm in an instant.
Zhong Cheng said that the karma lamp was placed on the refrigerator beside the bed, and the gentle red light illuminated the night. After seeing the strength of its master, the dog chose to cling to Yin Ren. At this moment, it was obediently hanging on the Huangliang key chain, and the latter had become immune to the red light and was snoring.
The street lights outside the window were on, snowflakes were falling, and the wind made a faint howling sound.
"Brother Zhong."
"Hmm?"
"What are your plans next? Work-related."
"Together with you, I will protect the sea valley, study the primitive objects, and write papers..." Zhong Cheng's voice was hazy.
This guy is really naive. Yin Ren laughed: "Where is the other side?"
"You are the new top of the food chain, your thoughts are more important... Is 'God' considered an invasive species... Whew..."
Zhong Cheng said as he put his arms around Yin Ren's waist, buried his nose in the wings, and fell into a deep sleep. His warm breath blew into the wings, carrying with it the mist and water vapor, like a soft and gentle kiss.
Yin Ren sniffed the fresh scent of his lover, he opened his mouth, pressed the tip of his teeth lightly on Zhong Chengshuo's neck, and then turned it into a licking kiss. The slight repulsion between them still existed, it danced lightly on the tip of his tongue, like the best spices.
Zhong Cheng said he was sleeping soundly and was not alert at all.
There is nothing we can do about it, Yin Ren thought seriously. Since Comrade Xiao Zhong has no sense of crisis, I can only treat it as my lifelong reserve food - the kind I won't be willing to eat until the end.
Yin Ren kissed his lover's forehead again and yawned loudly.
Things on the other side... Let Qi Xin come to Shi'an for a meeting tomorrow. Next is vacation, and then...
Yin Ren's eyes swept across the empty living room. The tablet was lying quietly on the sofa, with no sign of lighting up. In the group of dog's coffin nails, Hu Tao's avatar was always gray.
He still had a lot of things to do next. Yin Ren rubbed his lover and closed his eyes.
"Fu Xingchuan, what do you mean?"
Early the next morning, Huang Jin's resignation letter fell to the ground.
Now he has received his bonus and his reputation has been restored. Everything is going in a good direction. Huang Jin asked himself if he could withdraw now - there is nothing wrong with this case, who else can stop him? Who else
The cruel reality stopped him again.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Huang, I don't have the authority to approve this." Fu Xingchuan said apologetically, "Looking around the world now, you are the only one who can trigger an 'individual god'. You are an important combatant of the security department and a key surveillance target. Your salary will definitely be further improved, but the resignation is the only thing..."
"I'm a spirit craftsman!" Huang Jin's voice was almost broken. "Letting a spirit craftsman go to the front line, does Shi An have any humanity?!"
Fu Xingchuan patted his shoulder and said, "Young man, don't be too modest. When you are possessed by Sorrow, your fighting power is greater than mine."
"That was also Qi Xin's fault! I can't fight at all!"
"Sorrow and Loneliness have recently established a long-term cooperative relationship with Anda. Sorrow is willing to serve as our combat force when necessary in exchange for stable rewards."
Having said that, Qi Xin asked for the reward to be transferred directly to Yin Ren in exchange for Yin Ren's assistance to the other side. The two large monsters turned Shi'an into a labor agency.
Huang Jin wanted to cry but had no tears: "Then let it find someone else, Ge Tingting, can't it?! I'm not the only one with brain damage—"
"It said that Ge Tingting was too aggressive and didn't get along with it. But you smelled like food and it liked your scent."
Fu Xingchuan waved his hands.
"Besides, Xiao Ge has been busy recently. Xiang Jiang ran away, so I have to find a new person with the qualifications of a 'ghost general' to lead. The training is very strict, and I'm afraid she doesn't have enough time. Xiao Huang, please understand."
This means that he wants to take Ge Tingting as his apprentice.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you—?!"
Huang Jin really wanted to cry, but thinking of Qi Xin's possible gaze, he swallowed his tears. Now it was different from the past, he had no shortage of money. Huang Jin had never thought that being chased by money could be so painful.
Fu Xingchuan stroked his stubbled chin and said, "I understand how you feel. Now that 'The Other Shore' has just been discovered, the policy is unclear. If a new minister is appointed in the future, maybe he will approve it for you."
Huang Jin rolled up his dead fish eyes.
Fu Xingchuan's tone became more sincere: "Really, I can't do this for a few years. We have recently found a lot of clues from the Coral Reef Company. Once we have dealt with the sinking incident, I will retire early. Besides, you all know that Li Nian is planning to get married and retire. He is more anxious than you... By the way, how are you and Xiao Ding getting along?"
Huang Jin laughed dryly twice and ran away from the scene.
Fu Xingchuan did remind him. Halfway through his run, Huang Jin took two steps back and went to a street flower shop to buy a large bouquet of flowers.
Anyway, it was still early and Shih-an would not fire him for slacking off.
Let's go to the hospital for a check-up.
