In the next few days, since the technology donation matter was already busy, although she basically did not participate in the whole process, Anne, who thought she had completed the task, naturally devoted herself wholeheartedly to eating, drinking and having fun.

Isn’t this?

Today, Annie took her Wallfacer security convoy to a city more than a hundred kilometers away, and followed the city's promotional posters directly to a city square full of flowers.

Since it is already dusk now, most people have already got off work or have had dinner, and the sunshine has turned into a warm glow, so this square, which is not too big, is already full of people and bustling.

Under the afterglow of the evening sun, the colorful flowers are even more beautiful in the glow, like a palette pouring on the land, attracting visitors from all directions.

People are holding cameras in hand to take pictures to capture this splendor; or they are walking together, laughing and chatting among the sea of ​​flowers; and the vendors are shouting one after another, selling all kinds of flowers, gardening gadgets, and convenient baked goods.

Skewers and the most popular cold drinks in autumn and summer fill the air here with the alluring aroma of flowers and delicious food.

And the children, under the guidance of their parents, curiously touched every blooming flower, their eyes sparkling with the joy of innocence and curiosity.

However, after arriving here and strolling around, Anne discovered that the so-called Flower Square was actually just some flowers and some random shapes placed in the middle of the originally empty marble-paved square. The size might be

It's only as big as one or two football fields, and it's completely different from what she imagined and what was advertised in the posters?

And after thinking about it for a moment, she felt relieved. After all, since the beginning of the Crisis Era, and since the earth shifted to a wartime economy, due to heavy industry, the urban environment and pollution have become increasingly worse. Such a situation consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, but it has

Not conducive to the development of human science and technology and peace

In the future, there will be fewer and fewer activities to fight against the Trisolaran civilizations. Government departments generally will not invest budgets and funds in such useless places. Therefore, even a small square has such a flower in the middle.

The sea is enough to attract tourists.

Except of course Anne!

However, since she was already here, Annie couldn't go back immediately, so of course she took Shi Qiang and others and started wandering aimlessly in the small sea of ​​flowers.

Then, of course, since she was surrounded by many PDC black-clad security personnel when she moved, and her face was so recognizable, many tourists around her soon followed her.

He started pointing at her and discussing in a low voice.

And as you can imagine, those people definitely didn't say anything good about her!

But fortunately, Annie didn't mind and didn't bother to fuss with those guys too much. She just walked around on her own.

"!!"

|▽)

"Uncle Shi, I want to eat ice cream!"

(˙o˙)

"Go buy someone a big one and come back!"

╭(′ o′)╭

After wandering around for a while, Annie, who was originally bored, suddenly saw an ice cream stall in the distance surrounded by many tourists and children. Then her eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to look at the casual person next to her.

Shi Qiang, who was admiring the sea of ​​flowers, ordered.

"ice cream?"

Following the direction indicated by Annie, Shi Qiang immediately saw the ice cream truck with many children and tourists surrounding it. Then he nodded and walked over without even thinking about it.

"Okay!"

"Wait!"

"I'll buy it for you right away!"

They were just buying ice cream, so it wasn't a big deal. So, after Shi Qiang looked around and found nothing unusual, he took out his wallet, took out a big bill and strode over.

But very unexpectedly!

Within two minutes, he came back frustrated and told Annie that he was late. The ice cream truck had sold out all the ice cream due to the good business. Including him, several people in line did not buy it.

arrive.

"Sold out?"

()

"Can't you just jump in line?"

╭(⌒)

Hearing this, Anne was a little dumbfounded and complained angrily.

"Hello!"

"That young lady over there?"

"Do you want to eat?"

But at this moment, before the embarrassed Shi Qiang was ready to say anything, next to the ice cream truck, a little girl about four or five years old actually greeted Annie from a distance of more than ten meters and even extended her hand.

She held up her hand, showing off the last big ice cream in her hand and asked.

"Of course!"

(`)~

Without even thinking about it, Annie felt happy and prepared to walk over.

"whee!"

"Mom and everyone say you are a bad guy, so I won't give it to you!"

"I'm so hungry for you!"

However, before Annie could pass by, the other party quickly retracted his hand, made a face at Annie with a smile, and scampered away not far away.

"!!"

o(*｀ー)o

Seeing this, Anne was startled for a moment, then her face suddenly became tense, and then she was ready to do something.

"Ha ha!"

"Annie, how about I send someone to search nearby?"

"There should be other stores nearby that sell it?"

With that said, Shi Qiang took out his mobile phone and was about to open the map and search to see where there was a cold drink shop nearby, and then he would send someone to buy it.

"don't want!"

()

However, Anne flatly refused without even thinking about it.

"I want the one in her hand!"

o(*｀ー)o

"Go quickly!"

╭(′⌒′)╭

"While she's not eating, hurry up and grab it from someone else!"

(⌒)

Then, she hurriedly pointed at the four or five-year-old kid who was holding the big ice cream and had dared to show off to her just now, signaling Shi Qiang to hurry up and get it back for her.

After all, since the other party provoked her for no reason, then she must let the other party know the dangers of this world and the full malice from adults?

(…)

(;￢￢)

"this……"

"Okay, okay!"

Sighing, although Shi Qiang felt that it was not good to snatch something from a child, since it was the order of Annie, the wall-facer, since it was indeed the other party who provoked him first, and since Annie seemed to be a child too, he

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase after the little boy who was jumping around so stupidly that he didn't even know how to eat first.

"Kid, how about giving your ice cream to the squid?"

"Should I give you money?"

However, Shi Qiang did not use force directly. Instead, he pointed at the ice cream in the opponent's hand, and then while reluctantly showing a not ugly smile, he took out a hundred-dollar bill, expressing that he was willing to use one hundred yuan to fight with the opponent.

In exchange, after all, one hundred yuan is enough for the other party to buy ten or eight pieces elsewhere.

You can even almost let the other party's family go to that kind of fried chicken and burger restaurant for a luxurious meal?

"don't want!"

"You are bad people!"

"I won't give it to you!"

However, what surprised Shi Qiang was that the other party was unreasonable and was not tempted by the large banknotes. Instead, he turned his head away resolutely, and then started to eat?

"!!"
