Chapter 131 [In the human world]
July 7, 2001.
The 17th day of the fifth lunar month.
Slight heat.
It’s time to start construction and market and lay down the foundation.
Avoid marriage.

It started to rain in the morning, and towards noon, the rain became slightly lighter, but it did not stop.
At the entrance of Wanjiahu Middle School in JN District, Jinling City, half of the street has entered traffic control, and traffic police are patrolling at intersections on both sides. Ambulances and fire trucks are also parked at the school gate. Two police cars are also parked across the road.
On both sides of the school gate, among the dark crowds, were faces full of expectations and tension and anxiety.
Some people were still holding umbrellas, some were wearing raincoats, and some simply took off their raincoats and carried them in their hands because they were anxious and saw the rain was getting lighter.
What's rare is that with so many people gathered on both sides of the school gate, miraculously, no one made any noise.
Occasionally, someone in the crowd talks in a low voice, and if the voice is slightly louder, someone next to them will immediately remind them.
The person who was reminded also admitted his mistake, nodded cautiously, and lowered his voice.
A huge signboard hangs on the wall at the school entrance.
"In this important place for the college entrance examination, making noise is strictly prohibited!"
There are slogans similar to encouraging slogans hanging in the buildings above the school gate.
·
When the bell rang, the crowd waiting outside the door quickly erupted into an uproar, which quickly evolved from whispers to intense commotion.
Soon, the isolation tape was removed, and the school gate was opened. It was full, and scattered candidates began to appear inside...and then more and more.
Parents are already crowded at the school gate, densely packed and looking forward to it. The crowd is carefully and anxiously looking for their children.
Thousands of words turned into one question in the end: "How was your exam?"
Some children are proud and contented with their ambitions. Some children are upset, anxious and fearful.
As the saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad.

When the ** student squeezed out of the examination room, he was at the end and was dragging his feet. Soon he was found by Zhang's father and pulled to the side.
A thermos cup wrapped in a plastic bag was unscrewed and stuffed into his hand. Zhang's father's face was full of hope and a bit of a pleaser. This rich man was wearing work clothes and his cuffs were still stained. He always cleaned them.
The man with the indelible traces of engine oil was actually very clumsy. He swallowed hard for a few times, but he could only say "drink some water quickly".
**'s father, Zhang Tiejun, is forty-three years old this year. His name is very characteristic of people of his era.
**Sheng took the cup, he was actually a little confused, but he drank it in a big gulp.
The thermos cup actually leaked a little, and the water was no longer hot, leaving only a trace of residual warmth.
"The test... was okay, not bad." The student whispered to his father.
Zhang Tiejun seemed to take a long breath, as if a huge burden in his heart was relieved, and a smile appeared on his face: "Okay! That's good!"
Actually... I did really well on the exam.
There were two questions that I got right during the surprise review.
Although the results were not good, I should have performed a little above my level in the morning exam.
The student silently returned the water glass to his father.
Zhang Tiejun muttered and was still thinking about whether he could be admitted to the target school. The Zhang family did not have high requirements for Brother Haonan. The target was a mechanical and electrical engineering college. As soon as he heard the name, he knew it was not a good school.
.
But for Brother Haonan, being able to pass the exam is already Amitabha.
Can……
The student looked at his father's expectant face and struggled in his heart for a long time. Finally, he suppressed the words in his heart and did not say them out.
What he actually wants to say is...
"Dad, I don't miss you anymore."

South Pacific, British Lonehill Island.
Local time, it's about seven o'clock in the evening.
Under the cover of night, a fishing boat slowly docked on the pier. The dark-skinned boatman jumped ashore quickly, and then pulled the heavy cable and started working.
Boxes of fish were brought up.
Behind the cabin, at the foot of the deck, a young man wearing a hoodie slowly stood up, straightened the backpack behind him, tightened his clothes, and stretched hard.
The captain is a simple-looking guy, but he is actually very shrewd and cunning.
When the boy got off the boat, he handed over a small roll of banknotes tied with a rubber rope.
Green, M money.
The captain collected it and handed the boy a note.
"Go to old Pierre's tavern and tell me my name, and he will take care of you."
The young man curled his lips, made a face, and then quickly jumped off the boat.
Everything on the pier was full of fishy smell, and the sea breeze brought with it a light salty smell.
The sky was already like a mirror studded with bright gems, covering the top of the head.
The weather is excellent. Before disembarking, the captain said that the weather will be good in the next few days.
·
His feet stepped on the hard ground, and the feeling made Chen Nuo feel a little dazed in his heart for a moment.
Walk along the pier all the way up the hillside in front, and come to a hillside halfway up.
A rock is exposed on the side of the road.
Chen Nuo walked over, stepped on it lightly with his feet, then raised his eyes and looked around.
From this location, you can see the pier on the seaside down the hillside.
Not far away is a small shop with several sheds next to it...
After the young man stared for a moment, the corners of his mouth slowly blossomed into a smile.
"I...I'm back."
Um.
This is the place where Lord Yama finally fell in his "previous life".
It was on this rock at my feet that I smoked my last cigarette, exchanged insults with the President of Country M on the phone, and then reached the final deal.
It was in this position that I toasted with the CIA guy and drank champagne.
It was at this position that I breathed my last.
Chen Nuo stood next to the rock for ten full minutes.
Then, the young man laughed again.
Smiling so happily!
In this life, all this will never happen again!
no way!
·
After walking along the hillside road for a few minutes, we came to an intersection with two pickup trucks parked on the side of the road.
Chen Nuo walked over and talked with a driver for a while.
His English had a strong local accent, which made the driver very strange...he was obviously a new face.
After a few minutes, the two agreed on the price. Chen Nuo handed over a roll of U.S. dollars, then jumped into the cargo bay at the back of the pickup truck with his backpack and patted the roof of the car hard.
The pickup truck drove away along the road.
Along the mountain road, going uphill, downhill, turning, and passing through an open area.
The island is very big, and soon we entered a small town on a small basin.
The town was founded during the British colonial era.
In the center is a church with a steeple, and the cross on the top of the church can be seen from a distance.
To be continued...
