Hong Kong City, in Kowloon Park in the early morning, Du Liwei stepped on the warm light cut into pieces by the leaves and walked to the stone bench. He looked at the burgundy-haired girl sitting on the stone bench, squatted down, and saw
She lowered her head, hiding her crying face in her hair.
"Xiaohui?" Du Liwei greeted, but the girl turned her face away and didn't look at him.
"Then why don't we... go get a room?"
Xiaohui snorted, wiped the tears on her face, and hit him with a smile: "Why are you like this? You want to take me to a room as soon as we meet?"
"Hey, you definitely don't want to go home anyway, and there are people at home, so we can only rent a room, and we can't sleep on the street."
Seeing that Xiaohui finally reacted, Du Liwei shrugged and sat next to her and leaned against her: "You are really not afraid. Although the security here is okay, you are a girl late at night. What should I do if something happens to you?"
"Nothing will happen." Xiaohui argued: "There is a security booth at the door over there."
"It won't happen again." Du Liwei's expression was serious: "If you really want to go out for a walk alone, then you must call me, absolutely!"
Noticing that Du Liwei's expression didn't look like he was joking, Xiaohui pursed his lips: "It's not because of dad..."
"Uncle Huang is also doing it for your own good."
"What's good?" Xiaohui curled her lips: "I don't want to be a cake chef, he insisted on putting me in as an apprentice..."
"You also said that you want me to have a good relationship with that young cake chef. Well, he still looks down on you! I don't want him to scold me!"
Du Liwei smiled: "I am a car mechanic. My parents died early. I went out to get a few meals after I graduated from junior high school. It is normal to look down on me. As a parent, you always think about your children..."
"What are you talking about!" Xiaohui was so angry that she slapped Du Liwei on the head: "Why, you also want me to seduce you!"
"How is that possible?" Du Liwei immediately hugged Xiaohui, kissed her forehead, and said, "I just want to say, don't get too angry with Uncle Huang. You also know that Uncle Huang has a bad heart."
"And Uncle Huang said he wanted you to build a good relationship. Maybe he really meant building a good relationship. Otherwise, when you ran away from home and your phone was turned off, he would have thought of me immediately and asked me to come to you. Uncle Huang would also acknowledge you and me.
"
Although he may also hope that his daughter can meet a better one... But it's fine that Du Liwei knows this, there is no need to say it.
Xiaohui hesitated and buried her head in Du Liwei's chest. Du Liwei touched her hair and asked: "Then what do you plan to do in the future? You can refuse the arrangement, but if you don't have a goal, Uncle Huang will definitely bother you again.
Already."
Xiaohui in her arms was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "...I want to continue learning to paint."
"Painting..." Du Liwei subconsciously repeated the sentence, and the two fell into silence immediately. The streetlight light fell on them, as if they were covered with warm armor.
After a long time, Xiaohui raised her head, and there were no traces of tears on her face.
"Actually, being a cake chef is quite good."
Xiaohui stood up and stretched, turned around and bent over to look at Du Liwei: "Let's walk around. I haven't visited the park at night yet. I'll go home after that."
Du Liwei nodded, and Xiaohui took his arm and walked along the road.
"The feeling at night is really different." Xiaohui leaned her head on Du Liwei's shoulder: "Fortunately you are here, otherwise I would definitely be scared. I heard that many people died when the Kowloon Walled City was demolished, and there are many corpses buried here.
…”
"Don't say it. In fact, I am also very scared. If anything happens, I will definitely be the first to run away."
Xiaohui twisted Du Liwei's waist: "What about me?"
"Of course I will hug you and run away." Du Liwei said hehey.
Walking into the park, Du Liwei suddenly said: "You should continue to learn painting."
Xiaohui was slightly startled: "My dad..."
"I raise you."
Xiaohui chuckled: "You can take care of yourself, and you can take care of me. I can take care of you. A cake maker makes more money than a car mechanic, right?"
"Actually, I'm going to get a government job." Du Liwei said: "That job has high benefits, good treatment, and housing subsidies. When the time comes, I can dye my hair back and support you in your studies."
"Why do you have to dye it back? The golden one is so beautiful." Xiaohui complained: "Are you telling the truth? Are you trying to trick me?"
"real!"
"What kind of job is that? Tell me."
"You will know when the time comes. Just think about where to go to learn painting."
"Is this a very dangerous job?" Xiaohui suddenly became wary: "I've known you for so long, and you don't have any special skills except repairing cars. Or do you have a rich woman to support you?"
"How can any rich woman have such poor taste as you?" Du Liwei chuckled, hugging Xiaohui and teasing her.
"Ah, it's outside here, and you're still wetting me?"
Xiao Hui blushed and struggled, but she forgot to ask Du Liwei. While the two were fighting, they didn't pay attention to their walking, and unknowingly wandered off the main road and slipped to a less traveled path.
"Hey, is there a ghost stall there?"
Xiaohui saw a food stall parked on the roadside. The steam was steaming under the incandescent lamp hanging above the food stall. The faint aroma of food aroused the rhythm of her abdomen. A man wearing a jacket seemed to have just finished eating.
He left one thing behind and left.
"Speaking of which, I haven't had dinner yet..." Xiaohui muttered.
Du Liwei touched his belly: "I ran to two parks to find you. I've finished digesting the plate of shredded chicken rice tonight. Let's go have a midnight snack?"
"I didn't bring any money."
"I said I will support you, so I will start from now on." Du Liwei proudly took out his thin wallet: "Well... there is only one hundred yuan left... but is it enough for two plates of barbecued pork rice?"
They walked over and saw the beautiful girl in an apron in the ghost stall.
"Hey, the boss lady is quite pretty."
"Du Liwei, what did you say!" Xiaohui twisted Du Liwei's waist hard again.
Du Liwei's smile was so painful that his smile changed shape: "I love you Xiaohui the most. Don't be jealous. Come and have a midnight snack."
At this time, Du Liwei saw the white cup on the other side and flicked it curiously: "Where did you buy it?"
"What to eat?" The landlady asked directly, ignoring him.
"Let me take a look...Boss, you didn't even write down the price."
Du Liwei found that there was no price at all on the menu, and there were not many types of food on the menu. There was a sentence at the bottom:
"You can have whatever you want to eat, just order it."
"Liwei, look at that. You can tell stories and you can have a free meal." Xiaohui was amazed when she saw the ghost stall posted on the side with a sign written in eight languages.
"Hey, it's true! But I don't have a story to tell." Du Liwei thought it was some kind of gimmick and took out his wallet: "One hundred yuan, two portions of barbecued pork rice, is that enough?"
The landlady nodded, and Du Liwei continued to tease Xiaohui, asking her to forget the unpleasantness as soon as possible.
When he turned his head, Du Liwei saw an old man walking on crutches and wearing cotton-padded clothes on the path. He was obviously walking in the direction of the ghost stall.
This old man, why are you here for a midnight snack so late?
At the same time, at Tianlian College in Lianjiang City, not far from Hong Kong, a man wearing Ren Suo's clothes who looked a lot like Ren Suo opened Ren Suo's home with a bunch of takeaways, entered the house and turned on the lights, and followed Ren Suo.
Suo said: "I'm back."
"Well, let's go do the laundry." Ren Suo, who was playing games, said, "Did something happen?"
"No."
He left to do housework, while Ren Suo looked at the TV screen, turned on his phone and computer to record it.
He is still playing "Late Night Ghost".
Because he discovered a serious problem. Even if he knew the exact address of the ghost stall, he might not be able to find the ghost stall.
In Shenhai and Tokyo, it was obvious that a large-scale search force had appeared, but Ren Suo had not encountered them at all in the game. This shows how powerful the enchantment of "making the game proceed smoothly" in the ghost mode is.
So, what confidence does Ren Suo have to ensure that he will encounter a ghost?
Therefore, he chose to replay certain days, because during these days of ghost walking, Ren Suo met normal people who benefited from the ghost stall.
He asked the female shopkeeper to chat with them, to find out what these ordinary people had in common, and to confirm how the 'encounter' with the ghost stall was triggered.
If only people who don't know the ghost trap can encounter the ghost trap, then Ren Suo will be disappointed. However, he feels that this is unlikely, because Dai Yuxing and Chi Hongjia clearly know the ghost trap and can find it.
of.
Then, Ren Suo discovered that these lucky people who encountered ghost stalls all had one thing in common: they all had the habit of eating late at night. Even if they were not night owls, they would sometimes get up suddenly in the middle of the night to cook themselves supper.
possible.
"If this is the key to encountering a ghost, then I must be fine." Ren Suo thought to himself.
He attaches great importance to this opportunity, because if the female food goddess summoned in the future really can't make rice with ** seasonings, then these ten days are the only opportunity. If you miss it, you won't be able to eat the delicious food of the female food goddess.
.
It was already certain that he would find the ghost agent on the tenth day, and what he was thinking about now was how to share this benefit.
"We need to develop the habit of eating late night snacks... They shouldn't have this habit..."
Ren Suo thought for a while and called Dong Chengling.
No response at all.
Because it is 3 o'clock in the morning, it is normal for the mobile phone not to ring in sleep mode. Dong Chengling always has a regular schedule and does not let mobile phone messages disturb his rest.
Ren Suo then tried to call Gu Yueyan, and at least he was given the powerful skill Ear Bonder. Ren Suo was always generous to those who benefited from him.
The call went through.
"What's going on so late?"
"Would you like to come over for a late-night snack? I'll buy some."
There was silence on the other side.
Ren Suo is not surprised. Now at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night, someone suddenly comes to ask you for a midnight snack. If you don't hang up the phone, it is considered to be a consideration of the relationship between the two parties.
"Just you and me?"
Hearing this response, Ren Suo was slightly startled. If Gu Yueyan refused immediately, it was within Ren Suo's expectation. Her question made Ren Suo think deeply.
"Well, it's just you and me."
Ren Suo looked at the supper and felt that it would not be enough for three people. He would ask his clone to buy more next time.
After hanging up the phone, Ren Suo asked loudly: "Have you washed the clothes?"
"It's washed!" the clone replied, "I'm cleaning the dirt in the gap next to the washing machine!"
"how much longer?"
"It's done!"
"Then put your things away and put the change of clothes on top of the washing machine."
After a while, the clone said: "It's done as you asked."
"See you next time. Thank you for your hard work tonight!"
