Chapter 2426 Unexpected encounter (two chapters in one)
"Boom..."
There was lightning and thunder in the sky, and the frequency of thunder and lightning was very high, which was very scary.
Even old residents who have lived in this city for many years encountered such thunderstorms for the first time.
There is a rainy season every year. When the rainy season arrives, it will rain frequently for a period of time.
Although there are frequent thunder and lightning weather during the rainy season, this is the first time that the weather like today has almost non-stop thunder and lightning within an hour.
The residents in the city were confused and didn't know why there was so much thunder in the rain today.
Fortunately, some high-rise buildings in the city have measures to prevent lightning strikes, otherwise residents in the city would now see some high-rise buildings being struck by lightning.
"Wow, wow, wow..."
There was thunder and at the same time it was pouring rain.
Free rain fell from the sky, causing water to accumulate in some low-lying areas in the city.
The government sent some workers to clear the sewers and drain the accumulated rainwater outside the city.
We have considered this kind of weather before, so the relevant staff are always ready to go out at any time.
The two investigators stood in front of the window, looking at the busy pig-headed soldiers, thoughtfully.
"I didn't expect that the relevant departments in the city were so well prepared," the short investigator said.
"Yeah, I didn't expect them to manage things so well," the tall investigator said.
The inn is located on a higher ground. Looking out the window, you can see what is happening in the low-lying areas in the distance.
Many soldiers were helping to clear the sewers. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and these soldiers were all wet.
…………
There was constant thunder outside the window, and the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead opened his eyes.
Originally, he wanted to rest for a while, but with so much noise outside, he couldn't take a good rest.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood up and came to the table, picked up the kettle and drank water. The sound of rain outside continued to penetrate into the room through the gap in the window.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead picked up a piece of pastry from the table and put it into his mouth, then took another sip of tea.
Suddenly there was a loud noise outside. After hearing this, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood up, went to the window, opened it and looked outside.
Under his gaze, some soldiers ran past quickly in the rain.
These soldiers also towed several vehicles, which were modified drainage trucks.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, knew as soon as he saw this situation that there was too much rainwater accumulating in some low-lying areas and it was urgent to drain the water immediately.
The soldiers disappeared with the drainage truck at the end of the street, and some shops on the street had their doors closed.
It's raining so hard now that few shops on both sides of the street are open.
As for passers-by, there were still some when the rain first started, but now that the rain is so heavy, no one comes to the road anymore.
Rapid footsteps sounded in the corridor. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead retracted his gaze from the distance and came to the door to open it.
He immediately saw the waiter running past in a hurry. Out of curiosity, he stopped him and asked what happened.
The waiter quickly replied, "The warehouse where the ingredients are stored is leaking. I have to rush over to help now."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead frowned and looked at the back of the leaving waiter, muttering to himself.
"The manager of this inn is a bit sloppy! This kind of problem should not happen in the warehouse where food is stored."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard the movement downstairs and did not go downstairs to check. Through what the waiter told him, he already knew that the employees in the store should be busy with warehouse matters.
Close the door, return to the window, and continue to look outside.
More and more soldiers appeared, dragging drainage trucks around to rescue the scene.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead watched in front of the window for more than half an hour. Only when no more soldiers appeared on the street in front of the inn did he look away, then closed the window and lay back on the bed.
The pouring rain outside is still falling, with no sign of stopping.
However, the sound of thunder is much smaller than before, and the frequency has also been reduced.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was lying on the bed again to rest, and fell asleep more easily than before.
Not long after, the noise coming from the outside world was too small to be detected. At this time, the pig-headed captain, who was lying on the bed with a brown birthmark on his forehead, fell asleep.
…………
Time passed quickly, and a few hours passed quickly.
In the evening the rain stopped and the dark clouds covering the sky began to disperse.
The sun appeared in the sky. At this time, the sun had turned bright red, dyeing the sky after the rain a bright red.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead woke up. He opened the window and looked outside. The originally quiet street began to become lively again.
Just say that several shops in front of the inn reopened after the rain stopped, and the employees in the shops were greeting customers to come in.
Some disappearing carriages also began to run on the street, and passers-by walked together in twos and threes.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead observed for a while, then left from the window and went downstairs.
After resting for an afternoon, you can go shopping outside and stretch your hands and feet.
The waiter came to say hello and asked the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead if he wanted to have dinner.
He had already planned to go shopping outside, so the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said no and left the inn.
…………
“Fruits that have just been picked are not delicious and don’t cost money.”
"Don't miss it if you're passing by. Come and take a look at the freshly baked sesame cakes."
"Fresh exotic meat is now on sale at 20% off. If you like it, you can buy some and take it home."
The vendors on the street kept selling, and they didn't look tired at all.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was shopping. Looking at the atmosphere of the market in front of him, he couldn't help but smile.
"Why are there so many people in front?"
As I was walking on the street, I suddenly noticed a lot of people gathering in front of me.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the outside of the crowd, stepped on his feet and looked inside.
After a while, the crowd parted, and two soldiers grabbed a struggling vendor.
"It has nothing to do with me."
"I was wronged."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead watched the vendor being taken away, and a similar scene he saw before came to mind.
"Is this vendor related to the rebels?"
"It seems that rebels have bought things from his stall before."
"This man seems to have nothing to do with the rebels. Now that he has been taken away, I don't know if he can be released from prison."
"It's really unlucky. Fortunately, I didn't come out to set up a stall."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead listened to the comments from passers-by around him and verified the suspicion in his mind.
Because the rebels were causing trouble in the city, the government cracked down hard.
With the idea that I would rather catch someone wrong than let him go, I arrested a lot of people during this period.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not stay too long and continued to move forward.
He walked around a few streets and found a lively restaurant for dinner.
I ate in the lobby, listening to some people around me talking about recent events.
…………
blue star.
Tianhai City.
An ocean-going cargo ship carrying hundreds of thousands of containers is docked at the dock. The sun will set in the sky soon, and the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the ocean-going cargo ship.
"Oh oh oh..."
Flocks of seagulls hovered in the sky, flying low from time to time, and ships flew past in front of them.
In the quiet office, a figure with clear curves was busy. Suddenly, Zhou Yue stopped what he was doing.
After working hard all day, I finally got the job done.
She raised her hands, stretched her body, then picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip of tea.
"Ding dong."
The mobile phone on the table rang, and Zhou Yue picked it up to check.
The person who sent the message was Lin Fei. He said he was going out soon.
Zhou Yue replied quickly, then she put away her phone, turned off her computer, and left the office with her bag.
…………
The streets are busy and very lively.
Because the sun is going down soon, the street lights are all on.
The swaying Zhou Yue walked out of the company. She looked around on the roadside, but did not see Lin Fei.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Zhou Yue, making her skin look fairer.
Passers-by couldn't help but focus on Zhou Yue, and some even had the idea of striking up a conversation.
At this moment, Lin Fei's figure appeared at the corner of the street. He immediately saw the eye-catching Zhou Yue and walked over quickly.
"Zhouyue."
There was a voice behind me, and it sounded particularly familiar.
Zhou Yue turned her head to look, and the moment she saw Lin Fei, a bright and charming smile bloomed on her pretty face.
The passers-by who were looking at Zhou Yue were excited, but when they saw Lin Fei coming to Zhou Yue and how close the two were, the thought of striking up a conversation disappeared immediately.
"You're here!"
"Let's go!" Lin Fei said, and then the two of them crossed the road and walked towards the overpass.
On the way, Zhou Yue asked casually, "Are you playing games at home in the afternoon?"
"Yes." Lin Fei began to talk about a game he had just played, especially emphasizing the difficulty of this game.
Zhou Yue became even more interested after hearing this, and then said with a smile, "When I finish my business trip, I will download it and play it when I get home to see if it is as fun as you said..."
The two people crossed the overpass and took a taxi on the side of the road. Not long after, a taxi arrived.
…………
"Welcome." The waitress in cheongsam greeted the two customers warmly when she saw them walking into the store.
"Is there a private room?" Zhou Yue asked.
"Yes, how many of you are there?" the waitress said with a smile.
"Just two people." Zhou Yue replied.
"Then ask for a small private room!"
"Can."
"Please follow me." The waitress said, leading the two people to the second floor of the restaurant.
The private room next to the street can see the street scene. Lin Fei and Zhou Yue took their seats. After ordering their dishes, the waitress left the private room.
"You told me before that you had something to say, what was it?" Zhou Yue picked up the teapot on the table, poured a glass of water into Lin Fei's cup, and asked.
"It's like this. Next, I have to help the Superpower Management Bureau handle a matter. I will be busy for a few days. During this period, I won't be able to contact the outside world." Lin Fei said, then picked up the water glass and took a sip of water.
"Can you tell me what it is?" Zhou Yue asked curiously.
"It's not very convenient." Lin Fei smiled and shook his head.
"Oh." Zhou Yue nodded, and she casually said that it was not easy to tell outsiders about some of the tasks of the Superpower Management Bureau, but she knew that, so she had nothing to be disappointed about.
"You have been here for a while, can you go back next week?" Lin Fei asked.
"Probably!" Zhou Yue thought for a while and told Lin Fei about today's meeting.
At the meeting, the person in charge of the company said that there will be another event next week, and Zhou Yue, who is here to help, may have to postpone his return home.
The two people were chatting, and the door of the private room was pushed open, and a few waiters walked into the private room carrying steaming dishes.
After a while, six dishes and one soup were placed on the table.
"This restaurant was recommended by my colleague. How do you like it?" Zhou Yue said with a smile, then put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs in Lin Fei's bowl.
Lin Fei took a bite of the sweet and sour pork ribs and thought it tasted very good. He nodded with satisfaction.
This time Zhou Yue put some vegetables into his bowl, and Lin Fei said quickly.
"Just do it yourself."
The two of them chatted while eating, and before they knew it, the entire table of food was finished.
…………
After coming out of the restaurant, Lin Fei and Zhou Yue did not choose to go shopping in the mall.
They walked to a nearby park, intending to find a place to sit in the park and rest for a while.
Many people go out for a walk at night, and you can see many old people dancing in the park.
There are many young people playing basketball on the basketball court, and cheers can be heard from time to time.
Lin Fei and Zhou Yue walked into the park and were a little surprised to find that the park was very busy.
"It's quieter over there. Let's find a bench over there to sit on." Lin Fei looked around and pointed to the front left.
Zhou Yue smiled, nodded gently, and then followed Lin Fei to a secluded place.
The cobblestone path is winding and winding, with green grass on both sides of the road.
These grasslands must have been mowed in the past few days and are very neat.
A bamboo forest appeared in front of us, and the path passed through the bamboo forest and extended to a more quiet place.
When Lin Fei and Zhou Yue walked through the bamboo forest, their eyes suddenly became enlightened.
A large artificial lake appeared in front of us. There were many benches beside the lake. Many people were sitting on the benches and enjoying the breeze blowing from the lake.
"There is an empty bench over there, let's go there quickly..." Zhou Yue said with a smile.
After the two of them sat down and looked at the moon reflected on the lake, they couldn't help but feel relaxed.
