As the ambulance arrived, a blue phantom-like sports car also followed, and a mature woman ran directly out of the car. The woman was wearing a professional attire, and there was a trace of dust on her face, but this trace
, on the contrary, it added a sultry and mature atmosphere to this woman. The woman was very beautiful, but her eyes were very anxious. When she saw the woman with smoky makeup lying on the ground covered in blood, the woman screamed and ran away.
past.
The ambulance crew put the two injured people into the ambulance, and the woman followed the ambulance, leaving only the blue sports car. Not long after, a man walked up to the sports car and drove the sports car away.
Zhao Tiezhu had no idea what happened next. At this time, he was sitting in the passenger seat. Lucy was driving the car. It took about an hour to pass through most of the city and arrived at the suburbs of FJ City.
, this is the old town of FJ. The renovation of the old town has not been fully carried out, so it still looks like the 1990s, with blue bricks, tiles, and the old locust trees that have witnessed the development of FJ.
There is not as much traffic here as in the city center. The old road is dilapidated. Occasionally, some motorcycles and bicycles pass by, and there are many children running and playing on the road.
Zhao Tiezhu directly asked Lucy to park the car at the intersection of the old town. The two got out of the car. Lucy looked at the scene in front of her and was amazed, as if she had returned to the 1990s.
"There are many locust trees here, so it was called the locust tree area a long time ago." Zhao Tiezhu said as he led Lucy deeper into the old city.
"More than ten years ago, this was still the most prosperous area in FJ." Zhao Tiezhu touched the bricks on the wall. There were some ivy growing on the bricks, extending directly to the upstairs.
"I have lived here for a long time. My parents left me when I was very young. My grandma said they were dead, so I didn't ask anymore. Later, my grandma also passed away, so I left here and went out on my own.
Breaking in." Zhao Tiezhu seemed to be reminiscing, or contemplating, "I remember this used to be a small playground." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to an abandoned open space with weeds growing on it and several children lying on their backs.
I don't know what I'm looking for on the grass.
"Tiezhu, what do you do? Before buying a villa." Lucy asked curiously. After all, the villa was tens of millions, and Zhao Tiezhu looked like it was only more than 20, how could he afford it.
"Well, at that time I was strong, so I went out to sell, 200 a piece, 10 minutes at a time, 24 hours a day. I earned 30,000 yuan a day, and it was enough for two years. Haha," Zhao Tiezhu joked
, but Lucy pondered for a moment, "Ten minutes at a time... Tiezhu, you are so bad."
"...."
"Go this way." Zhao Tiezhu walked into an alley and shouted to Lucy.
After the two of them turned around in the alley a few times, they saw a three-story building in front of them. There were clothes hanging on the hangers upstairs. It seemed that there were still people living there.
"My previous home was there. I haven't been back for several years." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to the second floor.
"Go up and have a look." Lucy smiled and went up to the second floor first, and Zhao Tiezhu had to follow.
Because it had been a long time, the door of the room was rusty, but it was unusually clean, which made Zhao Tiezhu a little curious.
"Oh, the door is locked, you can't get in." Lucy turned the doorknob and said disappointedly.
"Look at mine." Zhao Tiezhu smiled and dug into a crack in the door panel. A small grid appeared on the door panel, with a copper key inside. Most people in the 1990s used this kind of key.
"Wow, there are hidden compartments!" Lucy exclaimed in surprise.
"That's when my grandma often went out to work for others. When I went out to play, I would often lose my keys. A key cost 1 yuan. My grandma's monthly income was only more than 200, and she still had to support her.
I felt distressed for a long time every time I lost my key, so I just made a secret compartment on the door panel. Every time I go out, I put the key here. There is nothing valuable in the house anyway, so I’m not afraid of people stealing it.
." Zhao Tiezhu said and opened the door with the key.
This is a small house, with a small living room, only a dozen square meters. The living room and kitchen are directly connected together. There are two bedrooms in the house.
"This room belongs to my grandma." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to the very simply decorated room. There was only a bed, a table, a black and white TV, and a Bodhisattva made of ceramics.
"The old man has been a Buddhist all his life. When he died, he told me that he would place his ashes in Nanhai. It took me half a year to get to Nanhai and place the old man in the temple." Zhao Tiezhu's voice was gentle, and Lucy left.
Entering Zhao Tiezhu's room, there were several posters on the wall, nothing more than the Four Heavenly Kings and the Little Tigers. At that time, young people only had these idols. Unlike now, cats and dogs all over the street came out to be stars.
.
There is a wooden bed with a shabby quilt folded on it, a few books on a table, and a few unknown pots of plants on the windowsill.
"This is my room. I have lived here for many years, from childhood to adulthood." Zhao Tiezhu introduced with a smile, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He had not been back for several years. Why was everything so strange?
clean?
"Tie Zhu, I didn't expect you lived here before." Lucy's eyes were full of surprise. For her who grew up in the United States, this kind of house could only be seen in slums. Although her home was only average.
, not exactly wealthy, but at least when I was a kid I had everything including cars, computers, etc.
"Ha, don't believe it. Twenty years ago, we were considered well-off, just like my family. But now we are developing too fast." Zhao Tiezhu walked towards his desk. Sure enough, the table was also very prosperous.
clean.
"Is there anyone there?" A soft voice suddenly came from outside. Zhao Tiezhu walked out of the room and saw an ordinary-looking woman with long hair.
"Pillar!!!" the woman shouted in surprise.
"Bug!!!" Zhao Tiezhu was also very surprised.
"Zhuzi, when will you be back? Why didn't you inform me?" The woman named Chongzi walked into the room with a look of surprise on her face.
"I just came here today. Let's take a look. After all these years, you still live here?" Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
"No, my father gave me his canteen, and now I run it. Let's go and sit at my house." Chongzi said, and saw Lucy walking out of the room. Lucy's beauty was another person.
The woman Chong Zi was also stunned, "Tie Zhu, what is this?"
"My friend. Lucy, Lucy, this is my childhood sweetheart, Li Qingcong, you can call her Chongzhi."
"Hello." Chongzi smiled and shook hands with Lucy, "Let's go and sit at my place."
"Have you been taking care of this room all these years?" Zhao Tiezhu asked directly after leaving the door.
"Yeah, you've been gone for so many years, and I saw that this place was going to be deserted, so I came over to take care of it whenever I had time. Fortunately, you told me about the hidden compartment at that time, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to enter this house.
." Chongzi said as he led the way.
"Xiao Su, biscuits, and Chen Xiao, are they all still here?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.
"Xiao Su and Biscuit are still there. That boy Chen Zhihuo is hanging around in the city. It is said that he is about to become a father. We are all relatively close to each other. It's you. You have been away for several years and there is no news at all." Chongzi.
There was a hint of resentment in his tone.
"Haha, it's work. Call those animals over sometime and let's get together." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
