From time to time, a bright star will shine through the thick black curtain, leaving a trace of afterimage~
When Su Chen returned to the store, he found a small figure sitting on the steps at the door.
It seemed like he was waiting for himself.
Child?
Why are there children in front of the store?
He must be passing by, right?
With this thought in mind, Su Chen stepped forward and opened the store door.
But I'm still a little confused as to why he appears here. At this time, shouldn't he have gone home to sleep?
At this time,
Noticing Su Chen walking over to open the store door, the child raised his head and looked at him:
"Uncle, is this your shop?"
"Oh, yes!"
Su Chen was stunned and looked towards the child.
I found that this child was very cute with a tiger-like head, but his eyes seemed a little wet at the moment.
As if he was sad about something.
Just ask:
"Are you here to find me?"
"yes!"
The boy nodded seriously, and the moisture in his eyes became even more intense.
Look at his cute face.
Su Chen frowned slightly, knelt down and touched his cute little head:
"It's so late, why don't you come home and come find me?"
"I want to find my mother, but I can't find her!"
The little boy held back his cry, but still shed tears.
Looking at Su Chen, his tone was extremely aggrieved.
Su Chen may find it annoying when other children cry.
But the child in front of me makes people feel a little pitiful, and I want to comfort him from the bottom of my heart.
Immediately he continued to ask:
"Can't you find your home? Do you still remember the location of your home?"
"I......"
The boy hesitated to speak.
At this time.
A strange voice sounded between the two of them.
It's the grunting sound you make when you're hungry.
Even if Su Chen didn't eat a bite of food for several days, his body would not make such a sound. It could only be the sound made by a little boy.
It seems that the child is hungry.
Then I touched his head:
"Let's go, uncle will take you to have a meal first?"
"good!"
The boy might have been hungry, but he agreed without any hesitation.
soon,
Su Chen took him to a nearby noodle shop, which was not closed yet.
I casually ordered a bowl of ramen which my kids love.
The two of them just sat down and waited quietly for the ramen to be served.
Smelling the fragrance coming from the store from time to time, the child's crystal saliva couldn't help but flow out of his mouth.
Sensing Su Chen's gaze, the child wiped his saliva shyly.
"You haven't told uncle where your home is yet!"
Taking advantage of this free time, Su Chen couldn't help but ask.
It's such a late night, the family must be anxious, right?
"I...I want to find my mother!"
The child mentioned mother again.
Hearing the words,
Su Chen continued to ask:
"Then tell uncle where your mother is, and I can take you to find her!"
The child looked stunned.
In the big eyes, tears seemed to be shed:
"I don't remember where my mother is, but I know, my mother...my mother is lying in a big box. My father found your store, and then my mother slept in that box, never to be seen again.
She got it!"
"I...I miss my mother!"
Crying till I choke.
Su Chen looked startled, and immediately understood what the boy meant. His mother was gone.
Are you here to find your mother?
In other words, he doesn't know where his mother is buried, and wants to take him to see his mother's tombstone after finding this place?
The boy cried.
Su Chen had no words of comfort to say and looked at him with complicated eyes.
Fortunately,
The store owner arrived with delicious ramen, resolving the deadlock between the two.
"Let's eat first!"
Su Chen said comfortingly.
Listening to this, the boy nodded, crying silently while eating.
Seeing this, Su Chen couldn't help but said:
"Son, I know you miss your mother, but at such a late hour, your father must be very worried about you. You must not have told your family when you came out, right?"
"How about I take you home first and don't let dad worry about you? Don't worry about mom. I will make it clear to your dad. I believe he will be willing to take you to see mom."
...
Why do people always like to be at a higher level when dealing with children?
If faced with a playful little boy, Su Chen believed that he would prefer to call himself brother, but now he has to call himself uncle so that his persuasion can be more convincing.
Fortunately, the little boy finally opened his heart.
He told me his home address and his father’s contact information.
The situation was similar to what Su Chen expected. The other party was already at the patrol station preparing to report the crime. After receiving Su Chen's call, he rushed over immediately and hurried over in a hurry.
A BYD parked at the entrance of the noodle shop, and the man got out of the car in a hurry.
After seeing his son, he breathed a sigh of relief.
reproached:
"Huzi, you worry me to death!"
While talking, he checked Huzi's body.
No harm was done.
Looking at the finished noodle bowl again, the man quickly smiled at Su Chen, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:
"Thank you, brother. Now that I have found the child, I was planning to report it to the police. I didn't expect him to come here. I would also trouble you to take him to dinner!"
"This is a little thought of mine. It came in a hurry and I didn't have much preparation! It's better not to show it to anyone else!"
"Thank you for the good Samaritan!"
With that said, he took out a wad of cash from his pants pocket and handed it to Su Chen.
Su Chen smiled lightly and pushed away his thoughts:
"No, I appreciate your kindness. No need for cash. By the way, I have to tell you that the place where the child ran is not here, but my Su's Funeral Company!"
"Funeral company?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then frowned and looked at his child:
"Huzi, why are you going to someone else's funeral company?"
Huzi's eyes were still full of water.
No explanation.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing this,
Su Chen interjected and explained:
"The child wants to see his mother!"
"Want to see mom?"
The man looked stunned, obviously not expecting this to be the reason.
For a moment, I felt a little moved.
Looking at the child's immature face, he couldn't help but blame himself and said:
"Blame me, blame me for not having time. I'm usually too busy to take care of you!"
"Miss your mother, don't you?"
"Tomorrow, daddy won't be going out tomorrow. I'll take you to see mommy, okay?"
There was deep self-blame in his voice.
Looking at the man's white hair and the belt tied around his waist, Su Chen looked at the father and son with a complicated expression.
Immediately.
Turned around and left.
On the way back to the store, he had a lot of thoughts.
The little boy's mother is gone. The customer who was once his father's reception is gone. As his father leaves, no one seems to remember that this customer ever appeared. Only the little descendants of this customer still remember it firmly.
His mother was buried by Su's Funeral Company.
She left.
But she hasn't left yet.
No one will remember the real departure.
...
I don’t know why, but after returning to the store.
Geng Lao's mission has yet to be settled by the system.
There may be some hidden incident that is still unfolding.
The morning light of the next day poured down.
It's another bright day.
Su Chen was going to have breakfast, but he found that the old man who used to rush to jump in line at the breakfast restaurant was slowly sitting at a table eating and drinking.
This is a strange scene.
I couldn't help but get curious, so I approached the store and asked in a low voice:
"Isn't that person quite anxious, usually?"
"Which one?"
The store owner was stunned for a moment, then followed Su Chen's eyes and looked over, immediately realizing something.
He lowered his voice and shook his head with a sad look on his face:
"The old man's wife left two days ago!"
"Before, in order to take care of his wife, I hurriedly took breakfast and sent it home. Now he is the only one at home, so there is no need to worry."
"..."
Su Chen's expression became complicated. He didn't expect the reason to be like this.
Looking at the old man sitting there eating quietly, his eyes were very peaceful, it was obviously a peaceful scene in the years.
In his eyes, there seemed to be a little more helplessness.
There is a lot of helplessness and emotion hidden in the folds of the old man's years.
The world is never a perfect place.
There is always a lot of helplessness and bloody plots.
Just had a simple meal.
When I returned to the store, by coincidence, the phone in the store rang.
Su Chen's face was shocked. A new customer came so soon?
He quickly stepped forward to answer the phone:
"Hello, Su's Funeral Company!"
"Hello, I saw your company's advertisement on the Internet. Can you make all the advertising words written on it?"
A hoarse voice came from the other side, low and hoarse, and it had a somewhat eerie feeling.
There's a... feeling like I've killed someone.
Su Chen looked stunned and thought it was an illusion.
Reply to the other party quickly:
"Of course, we can make all the packages in the advertisements! As long as it is the funeral service you see, we will accept it!"
After hearing what Su Chen said,
There was silence on the other side for two seconds.
Subsequently,
The hoarse voice continued:
"Okay, where is the store?"
"..."
After Su Chen briefly reported the location of the store, the other party hummed and hung up the phone.
There are no unnecessary words.
I just wanted to ask if I could make a set meal.
Then there is the store location.
I don’t know which package this strange customer is interested in.
Without thinking much, Su Chen sat in the store, waiting for the customer to come to the door.
After what happened last night, Taichi Furusaka did not come back, so Su Chen let him go by default.
Ever since he helped him kill the prince, Taichi Furusaka was destined to create a gap between himself and the bandits.
Letting him go back would obviously have a greater effect than continuing to stay with him.
So Su Chen didn't bother to investigate.
As long as he can safely blend into the Kou clan, he is considered very capable.
but,
Speaking of Lin Yu, there seems to be no movement in the past two days?
...
now.
Qingyang County.
In a gloomy abandoned warehouse somewhere, a man with scars on his face hung up the phone with one hand.
Phew~
Blow out a thick smoke ring.
The sunken eyes were full of exhaustion and weariness.
The whole person's face looked dull and morbid.
He pinched the cigarette in his hand and took another deep puff.
Watching the fire burn away the remaining tobacco, he breathed a sigh of relief and let the smoke escape from the corner of his mouth.
Immediately afterwards,
Damn!
He spit out the remaining cigarette in one breath, mixed with the blood in his mouth.
He looked around with difficulty, seeing corpses piled up in random directions.
The smell of blood kept seeping out, mixed with the damp and dark environment, making it nauseating.
The man seems to be very familiar with this special smell of blood, and is so used to it that he never even notices it.
He glanced at the corpses calmly.
These corpses had either wounds from knives or wounds from gunshots.
It was very cruel, and blood continued to flow from their bodies.
As his eyes swept across, on the other side, an opened black suitcase appeared in view.
Bags of neatly stacked white powder were piled among them.
On the packaging of these powders, there are black skulls painted on them.
Looking to the side, there are banknotes that are almost piled up like a hill, and stacks of cash are piled there irregularly.
That's millions in cash.
There was no emotion in the man's indifferent eyes.
Hiss~
Suddenly, the pain from his abdomen made him grit his teeth and take a breath.
When he looked down, he saw that the bandages covering the injury were stained red.
The red color was still seeping out along the white bandage, and when you touched it, it stained your hands.
When he was killing these bastards, he failed to dodge when they counterattacked and was shot.
Fortunately,
Being well prepared, I managed to deal with these criminals without any danger.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo raised his chest with difficulty and saluted in a certain direction.
Then, he smiled and murmured to himself:
"Revenge, revenge for you! We agreed to wear Xun together with the labor and management, but you left first!"
"The labor medals that were damaged are gone. You have to compensate me for one if you go down!"
"Damn old Liao, you promised me the honor, but who will prove it to me after you die?"
"When you left, there was still a pennant left."
"When employees leave, it's not too much to hold a funeral, right?"
