1029 Scone in the rain

The heavy dark clouds in the sky were pressing on the tall buildings, getting lower and heavier, and even the day was soaked with the cold, damp and gloomy color of the approaching rain, hanging heavily under the low sky.

Lin Sanjiu and the two walked for about ten minutes. Finally, the air could not bear the weight of the thick dark clouds, and raindrops fell in a steady patter.

Once it started, the rain suddenly became violent in the blink of an eye. The dense rain columns roared and poured down. A vast white water vapor quickly appeared between the sky and the earth, the dim skylight, and the endless, non-stop heavy rain.

, causing all the scenery to recede from the field of vision and disappear into the white mist. Even things a few meters away are difficult to see clearly through wet eyelashes.

The soaked clothes cling heavily to the body, as if they are so heavy that one cannot even breathe; with every step he takes, a puddle of water will pop out of the insole. Compared with ordinary people,

Generally speaking, as evolutionaries with keen senses, they felt even more uncomfortable when walking in the rain. The two of them walked on the empty street for a while, and finally gave up. They hurriedly walked up the steps by the roadside and hid in a building.

Under the eaves of the second-story residence.

In weather like this, probably no one would come out to catch a mentally ill person.

Surprisingly, Bohemia did not complain.

"Wipe your face," Lin Sanjiu handed her a towel, "Why are you so quiet?"

Bohemia's unclear voice rang out from the towel: "It's going to rain and it's not under anyone's control. What's there to say? If I have to say this, it's just that I've met someone in my life.

Anything can tire me to death."

Seeing her lose her temper a lot, Lin Sanjiu almost forgot that she was also a resident of the Twelve Worlds who had struggled to survive until today.

Taking back the towel, she looked back behind her - this red door only needed to fill in one corner, and it was a parallelogram that tilted to the right; but compared with other buildings, it was already quite regular.

"I'm not worried about the rain," Bohemia's hair was completely soaked, the golden brown became dark brown due to moisture, and the strands stuck to her skin and clothes. She simply grabbed them all,

It was tied into a low ponytail. "What I'm worried about is that you can't find the way to the garbage dump - look at this city planning, it can't keep up with the amateur designers in the Twelve Realms who are halfway to becoming a monk. After a while, I can't even think of what I just did."

The entrance and exit can’t be found anywhere!”

It is really a long shot to wait for a professional architect or urban landscape designer to transmit it; therefore, the parts of the twelve worlds built by the evolvers basically rely on special items and a rough introductory book to achieve unlimited imagination.

Made up of imagination and inflated blind confidence.

But compared to this world, the Twelve Realms look really professional.

Lin Sanjiu sighed - even if she knew the general direction, she was actually not sure that she could find the garbage dump. Since they left the entrance and exit, although the pursuers did not meet many, they were forced to retreat by the sudden cut off of the road.

I had to turn around several times.

"Look at this door," Bohemia pointed behind her, "it's crooked--"

As if sensing her fingers, the red door suddenly opened with a creak, revealing a head of fluffy silver hair. Under the silver hair was a face with deep lines and a peaceful expression; this old woman, who was about sixty or seventy years old, looked at

She seemed to be in good spirits, and her cheeks were still pink. As soon as the door opened, a waffle-like aroma rushed out from behind her. She looked at the two of them up and down, as if she felt that they did not look dangerous, and then

Asked: "...Do you need to come in to take shelter from the rain?"

Lin Sanjiu looked over her shoulder and saw a small round table with an old-fashioned telephone on it in the corridor.

"Thank you very much." She gave Bohemia a hand and smiled at the old lady: "We will leave as soon as the rain stops."

Bohemia glanced at her immediately, as if taken aback.

The old lady opened the door - due to shape restrictions, the door panel had to be divided into three pieces and opened separately to allow people to enter and exit. I really didn't understand why it was designed like this in the first place. She turned around, led the two of them into the corridor, and said:

"I'm just about to drink tea... You guys go to the bathroom and wipe yourself down. You can have a cup of hot tea together."

"That's so embarrassing."

When passing the old telephone, Lin Sanjiu responded with a smile, reached behind the round table, and touched the telephone line. He twisted it with his index finger and thumb, and rubbed it with slight force.

Xian Deng couldn't bear it anymore and was crushed into several pieces between her fingers.

When the three of them sat down together in the gloomy reception room, the rain outside the window became even more alarming. The rumbling sound of rain soaked the sky and the earth, making it almost difficult to hear clearly what the people facing each other said; the skylight disappeared

Most of it was cut off by four walls, making it dark and dark, with only the remaining glimmer of light lingering in the hall.

Occasionally, a streak of snow-white lightning struck through the heavy rain outside the window, suddenly illuminating the face of the old lady opposite who was drinking tea with her eyes downcast.

The shape of the living room is not regular, and most of the corners are in shadow. If you put furniture such as a TV and a sofa, it looks normal. It's just that all the furniture is like the owner, with a certain atmosphere.

The meaning of the new year.

"Try the scones I baked." In the dim room, she motioned to the golden pastry in her hand. "My wife likes to eat it most... After he left, I continued this habit.

I come down and bake a few for tea every afternoon. I happened to make a few more today... After all, at my age, there is no telling which day will be the last."

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but look at Bohemia, and then felt relieved - even she, who loves food so much, just brought the tea cup to her lips and made a gesture; a small piece of the scone was pinched off

Afterwards, it was placed on the tea cup and saucer as it was.

...Even in a world of ordinary people, they still had to be a little more careful. Especially after experiencing the world of meat-eating, Lin Sanjiu was naturally wary of everything that came into his mouth.

The old lady ate it very well.

"You are not locals, are you?" She ate several of them in a short time, and then wiped her mouth gracefully with a handkerchief, "I could tell at a glance."

"We have a relative who works in the garbage recycling company here," Lin Sanjiu asked tentatively, "but we accidentally lost the address and got lost. Do you know which direction the garbage disposal site is?"

How can ordinary people pay attention to where the garbage dump is? The old lady was also stunned by the question. After thinking for a long time, she raised a finger and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get the city's facility information booklet...it should be there."

The two of them watched her walk out of the reception room in small steps, looked at each other, stood up from the sofa, and glanced around a few times.

"The design of this wall is too disgusting." Bohemia walked to the other end of the living room, frowned at a wall, and couldn't help but poked at it: "Why are there so many tiny little ones all over it?"

The pores... are densely packed, like pores."

Lin Sanjiu had long been accustomed to the unreasonable aesthetics of this world, so he walked closer to the TV. In fact, it took a little imagination to recognize that this thing was a TV, because it was similar to the fat man in the garbage dump.

The TVs looked almost the same. She opened a thick, pad-like layer and saw the entire screen. Touching the screen lightly, her fingertips immediately captured some faint images.

residual heat.

...It seems that not long ago, this TV was still on.

After greeting Bohemia, she found the button and turned on the TV - when the light came on, both of them couldn't help being surprised. Two faces they were very familiar with appeared on the screen at this time, responding directly.

Catching their gazes, the background is a small hall full of counters; at the same time, a female voice narration continues to emphasize: "...Emergency news, these two mental patients broke into the entrance and exit today, and they are currently on the run.

, citizens are requested to take corresponding measures in time after discovering it...I repeat, urgent news..."

With a "pop", Lin Sanjiu immediately turned off the TV. Turning her head, her eyes met Bohemia - the latter also reacted and was pressing her lips tightly.

Judging from the clues just now, this urgent news has been playing on the TV for a long time; and when they entered the house, the old lady had obviously seen them on the TV.

...So, what is she going to do next?
