By the river outside the family area of the Public Security Department, Cora saw a European beauty in uniform from a distance.
The round oval-shaped cheeks, sea-blue eyes, fair skin, and the light blue uniform of the Sheriff's Department highlight the tall and straight figure. At this time, he was standing quietly by the river in the setting sun, as beautiful as a painting.
really beautiful!
Cora was stunned and could not suppress the divergent associations:
The young master actually sent money to this woman. Even during the lockdown, he still racked his brains to ask me to send money to this woman!
What is their relationship?
...The young master said that this matter will affect the rest of his life!
The young master’s crush?
This woman... although she doesn't want to admit it, there is no doubt that she is worthy of the young master;
Only such a woman is worthy of the young master and qualified to be his future wife.
A story in which Ouyang Ao met the woman in front of him on a certain occasion, and the two decided to make a lifelong commitment privately emerged in Cora's mind. The woman in front of him said affectionately to Ouyang Ao: "When you grow up, we will get married.
"…
I...do I still have a chance to be the young master's concubine? This will depend on the woman in front of me.
Cora shuddered coldly and did not dare to think about it anymore...
No, she just has the right looks. She is many years older than the young master and can be his aunt... After experiencing a series of low self-esteem, Cora racked her brains and finally came up with an excuse to comfort herself.
"Is that you?" Krisna asked with a smile when she saw a young Hesse girl observing her.
The voice was nice, not like a sarcastic person... Cora quickly walked to the opposite side of Krisna, carefully looked at the beautiful woman in front of her again, and then plucked up the courage:
"signal!"
The corners of Krisna's mouth twitched, she really didn't want to say the secret code agreed by Ouyang Ao on the last phone call;
Too average!
However, seeing the formal expression on the Hesse girl in front of me, as serious as if she was fulfilling some mission, I had to sigh:
"There are five white flowers in the Central Plains."
"Chen Hongdou." Cora responded to the second half of the sentence without hesitation. These five words were memorized by the young master after the young master told him a hundred times, although he didn't understand what they meant...
The secret code was matched perfectly;
Cora looked around to make sure no one was around, unbuttoned her shirt in front of Krisna, and pulled out a wrapped envelope from her exposed bra.
Six ten-gold banknotes... glowing in the sunset!
Ouyang Ao, you are a bastard! Krisna imagined Ouyang Ao's lustful expression when he stuffed the money into the girl's underwear...
The protagonist of fantasy is fantasy, and the first thing he does when traveling through time is to open a harem... Bah!
After taking the money, Krisna looked at the girl in front of her and asked softly:
"Did he treat you...badly?"
Cora, who had just breathed a sigh of relief for completing the "mission", was stunned when asked, and then thought that the "him" mentioned by the beautiful woman in front of her should refer to the young master...
This kind of caring inquiry shows that this woman is a gentle person.
"You...be nicer to me in the future..." After hesitating for a while, Cora said hesitantly.
"Me?" Krisna frowned. Before she had time to ask, she found that the Hesse girl had already trotted away.
…
As the sun set, Wang Cui, who had been mending clothes for the whole day in her room, sat up slightly to soothe her lower back, which was sore from sitting for a long time.
Most of the mended clothes in front of her were shabby clothes from workers living nearby. Wang Cui probably counted a dozen pieces... Since Zheng Anbai left, she has been mending clothes for the neighbors to make a living.
According to the price of five copper yuan per piece of clothing, the clothes in front of me are enough for two days of food.
She stood up slowly and looked up at the photos of the two on the wall... The sunlight had dissipated, and the room was slightly dark with no lights on.
Brother An, I will persevere...
Living alone is very hard...but I...I will never be like those women outside the door...
After hesitating for a while, she turned around and walked into the small kitchen, turned on the light, put the rice in the pot, and prepared dinner.
Boom~boom~boom
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.
Wang Cui couldn't help frowning...Who would come to the house at this time?
They are not the ones delivering clothes, they all come in the morning.
Those single workers harassing me again?
When she thought of this, she suddenly became nervous, reached out and took out the kitchen knife, and walked cautiously towards the door.
This is the South District, the unsafe South District!
Walking to the door, Wang Cui held the kitchen knife: "Who?"
"Federal Mail." An emotionless voice came from outside the door:
"Ms. Wang Cui, you have an express mail."
Through the crack in the door, he saw that the people outside were indeed wearing dark green uniforms, and there was an electric motorcycle with a postal logo parked next to him. Wang Cui felt relieved and opened the door bolt.
After taking the letter and signing his name crookedly, Wang Cui weighed the envelope in doubt...it was a bit heavy.
Lock the door again and open the envelope;
Unexpectedly, there were twenty neat gold-threaded banknotes inside! Each one had a face value of one gold dollar!
Wang Cui, who had never seen so much money, was so frightened that his hands shook and the banknotes fell to the ground, scattered in a mess.
A piece of letter paper slipped out of the envelope.
Then in the faint light, Wang Cui read out the above content:
"Zheng An is gone in vain, and the last money he left behind... belongs to you."
"I hope you can start a new life..."
This is a farewell in a sense...
Wang Cui immediately collapsed on the ground, unable to think about who sent the money, and sat among the scattered gold thread banknotes and cried bitterly.
………
It didn't take much time for Mozhi to apply for a new passbook at the VIP counter of the Federal Commercial Bank.
The account name in this passbook is Shen Mi, which can be used specifically to receive funds transferred from He Man or Ouyang Ao - Mu Zhi does not want to expose his identity prematurely, even if the other person is the same time traveler as himself, even if the other person is a time traveler like him,
The one above is half a "fellow countryman".
People's hearts are so far apart, who can guarantee that "fellows" are all good people? In the old world, there are many people who have been tricked by real fellows...
Walking out of the bank gate, the busy streets are brightly lit and busy with traffic. The noisy city still refuses to stop and enjoy a moment of tranquility.
Unpredictable couldn't help but feel the pain in his body, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he cursed fiercely:
"grass!"
"I'm such a fucking saint!"
I still couldn’t help but return the money Zheng Anbai gave to Li Qing to Wang Cui...
This has nothing to do with law or morality, I just simply believe that the money should belong to Wang Cui.
"Disgusting temperamental person, what the hell does this have to do with me." Mozhi felt pain in his heart again... He was not a generous person, and he felt disappointed that the fat in his mouth flew away.
That’s a full 20 gold dollars!
I wrapped myself in a windbreaker and ate a bowl of hot egg noodles at a roadside stall, which made me feel more comfortable.
It’s not all for nothing, I still have two gold dollars as a reward for myself…
Walking along the street, I found a paid phone booth, and unexpectedly spent 2 silver dollars in exchange for a long-distance call to Dongcheng City.
Before Mo Ke could say anything, He Man excitedly said it was a success... This tone gave Mo Ke the illusion that a fraud gang was dividing the spoils.
However, there is no psychological burden.
After telling He Man his passbook account, Mu Yi hung up the phone and couldn't help but feel a headache again.
The source of the Origin Stone...this is still a question.
While thinking about how to obtain the Source Stone, I strolled towards my home. A familiar feeling came to my mind. I suddenly felt something in my heart, and then I realized that I was walking towards "Grinding Time".
Luo Sheng wasn't at home anyway, so he decided to spend the boring night here, so he walked up and knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door was still Lan Siyong, who was wearing a cheongsam from the cafe on the first floor, but seeing the uncertainty, he didn't look at it warily this time.
"Isn't this a newcomer?" Lan Siyong's eyebrows arched, recognizing Mu Zhi.
It seems that the five clones have merged into one, merging memories with each other... Unpredictable smile:
"Hello, Boss Lan, come and sit down!"
"Come on!" Lan Siyong was unexpectedly enthusiastic. He held up the unpredictable arm with one hand and spread his other white palm flat:
"The second time you come, it won't be free."
"Okay..." Mo Zhi took out a five silver dollar note and handed it over.
"A few people are playing cards on the second floor today, do you want to come and play a few games?" Lan Siyong couldn't help but go up the stairs with Mu Zhi.
The bartender in a tuxedo is mixing drinks, the violinist in the corner is still immersed in the melodious music, but the waitress Lan Siyong is sitting around with four people, playing poker quietly.
With just one glance, I could tell that they were trying to make money.
"Whether you want two, I don't know!" Lan Siyong, who was holding his arms, said with a smile:
"I've already lost several gold dollars to that waitress, so I need to add someone in to improve my luck."
I said why are you so enthusiastic...
Unexpectedly, his heart moved, and he quickly looked around and found that the chandelier above his head was faintly flashing red light.
Sure enough, this kind of official place where contractors gather will have a "hidden" presence, otherwise the contractors inside will often activate their abilities, which will always attract some unnecessary attention.
in this case……
A door to a new world is opening to you!
Unpredictable did not hesitate, suppressing the excitement in his heart: "Play a few games for fun!"
So, there were six people sitting around the table.
The waitress Lan Siyong looked at something unpredictable with a sad face:
"My brother helped my sister to warm up, but I lost even my underwear."
"If you strip naked and play with me, I'll give you one gold dollar." said the man sitting on the other side of Mu Zhi.
"Go away! You want to buy my naked body for just one gold dollar?" Lan Siyong glanced at her and cursed back.
Unpredictable looked around at the other four people on the card table. On the right was the waitress Lan Siyong, on the left was the man who just spoke with a moustache. The three people opposite him were a dull man wearing glasses, and one holding a cigarette in his mouth.
Smoke, a "ragged" woman and a fat man.
It was clear who lost and who won. There was already a thick stack of banknotes in front of the bespectacled man and the bearded man.
Unpredictable nodded, touched his face, pretending to be Luo Qing's usual shy look.
"My first time playing cards."
"Hey, first time!" The woman holding the cigarette exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at the unknown in amusement:
"I played cards with my sister tonight, and it was the first time I lost it..."
"The bottom of each game is 1 silver dollar, and the maximum single bet is 20 silver dollars." The man with glasses explained in a low voice.
