Pieces of goose-feather-like snow fell down under the street lights.
There are almost no pedestrians on the street.
[Zizi... In the next few days, the cold wave will continue to intensify. All departments in D City have made relevant preparations to fight the cold. Schools have temporarily suspended classes. The general public is requested to keep warm and pay attention to firefighting...
…]
The TV in the room downstairs is reporting the weather conditions for the next few days.
Through the roof, you can hear the cheers of the children in the house, as well as the complaints and complaints of the parents.
The snowflakes fell, but not one fell on his body. Instead, a thick circle of snow accumulated around his feet.
On the roof of the house, a pair of eyes shining with psychic light looked through the window at Miao Renfeng who had put on pajamas in the room and walked step by step to the dressing table.
One side of the face in the mirror is painted with a rich feminine outfit, while the other side is painted with a man's makeup.
He was clearly alone, but it looked like two people were chatting.
There were people talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.
It has been two days. During these two days, I have been paying attention to my senior all the time.
I found that except when he returned home, Miao Renfeng was just like a normal person at other times. The bright smile on his face was even warm enough to melt this cold winter.
This forced him to reconsider whether to turn to the local union for treatment.
Although it is difficult to accept, this seems to be the best choice for my senior.
After thinking again and again, he looked at the [Disaster Avoidance Pointer Box] in his hand and silently thought about Miao Renfeng's current situation, whether it was good or bad.
But [Disaster Avoidance Pointer Box] did not give any reply.
This kind of thing is obviously difficult to predict. After all, even a normal couple will occasionally quarrel and get angry.
"Is this related to psychic creatures?"
He asked the last question and looked at the pointer box. He saw the long needle on it, after shaking a few times, finally pointed to the red area, which meant that it was not a psychic creature.
Seeing this answer, I felt a lot more relaxed.
Since it's not a psychic creature, maybe it's the inner demon of your own senior.
Thinking of this, he had already planned to give up asking for help from the local union and leave without disturbing the couple.
Get ready to check out the newly built 25th District.
After jumping down from the roof of the house quickly, he straightened his clothes and stood in front of the door, preparing to say goodbye to his senior and leave.
Just hesitated for a moment.
In the end, I still didn't have the courage to knock on the door and face Miao Renfeng at this time.
"Forget it! Let's make a phone call."
Ding Xiaoyi shook his head and turned to leave.
Take out your phone while walking.
"Click!"
At this time, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and the light in the room shone through the door on Ding Xiaoyi's cheek. When he looked up, an aunt wearing a large floral cotton-padded jacket came out carrying a garbage bag.
"Hey, who are you looking for?"
When the aunt saw a stranger standing outside her door, she suddenly became alert.
"I am Miao Renfeng's classmate."
Ding Xiaoyi pointed to Miao Renfeng's house behind him and said.
"Oh, Yuan Xiaomiao's classmate, haha, I'm sorry!"
The aunt immediately relaxed after hearing this and put down the bricks in her hands.
As he spoke, he was about to call Miao Renfeng: "Why did you come here so late at night? Xiao Miao... Xiao..."
We have been neighbors for more than ten years, and the aunt immediately showed her old-fashioned and warm-hearted side.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyi waved quickly until the aunt continued to shout: "Auntie, auntie, I'm sorry, I got off the car late, so I won't disturb the couple. I'll just come back tomorrow!"
With that said, he turned around and left.
However, the aunt was startled and couldn't help but said strangely: "Couple??"
Ding Xiaoyi then remembered that Miao Renfeng's wife was afraid that she had died of illness, and quickly prepared to change her story.
However, what the aunt said next made him suddenly stunned: "He doesn't even have a girlfriend. When did he get married??"
"not married??"
"Yeah, he's not married. He's already thirty. He's still alone now. I've never seen him come back with a woman. He got married when. Young man, you haven't contacted each other for a long time!"
The aunt assured her with a pat on her chest, and then talked about their life in Gunfang Street.
There is nothing about anyone’s family that I don’t know.
For example, the second widow on the street has an unclear relationship with Uncle Li next door.
The relationship between Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang.
The thing between Aunt Zhang’s son and the second widow...
The ground murmured a lot.
But Ding Xiaoyi no longer had the time to listen to her gossip.
My thoughts suddenly became tense.
No wife, not even a girlfriend.
Then there is even less possibility of the so-called wife turning into a vegetative state.
Could it be that everything was imagined by him?
In thinking, the more Ding Xiaoyi thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was not as simple as he thought.
For a moment, my mind couldn't help but recall every detail of the conversation between Miao Renfeng and himself after the two met in the old city, as well as in the Lost Mansion.
No! He doesn’t have a wife, his wife is just a cover.
I'm afraid that at that time, he will have a problem, and it will definitely not be as simple as schizophrenia!
"Master! Master!!"
At this time there was a low voice calling.
The lively noise in my ears suddenly hit me like a tide, waking me up from the memories of the day before.
In the bar in front of me, a piano song "if love now reynyd" is playing
Although it is a bar, the brightly colored sausages in the barbecue cabinet are filled with a unique fragrance.
It encourages people to order two barbecues while drinking. If the consumption is large, the boss will give away a plate of peanuts.
He raised his head and glanced at the heavy snow outside the window.
For other protected areas, it is still a sunny time, but for the fifth area, it is already the depths of winter.
Facing the cold air of minus 30 degrees Celsius.
Pedestrians on the street outside all wrapped themselves up tightly.
In such bad weather, it feels like my teeth hurt even when I take off my mask and take a deep breath.
As for urinating in the open, it is a challenge of courage.
I believe that no man would be willing to expose his birds and have a close contact with nature in such bad weather.
But what really makes people complain is not the recent cold weather.
Rather, they are several heavy factories in District 5.
Since the alliance promulgated new tax laws and policies, these factories have been operating around the clock, day and night.
Because the alliance reduced one of their largest expenses, the environmental tax.
And they vigorously encouraged their development, so that the heavy factories that were originally in a weak state were transformed into strong men who were just taking drugs.
This is also the reason for the recent decline in overall air quality in District 5.
Of course, as compensation, each protected area will provide some temporary compensation to ordinary people according to the situation.
For example, early free health check-ups and reduced costs for some respiratory diseases.
Ding Xiaoyi was interrupted by Wangcai's thoughts and couldn't help but frown.
Just listen to Wangcai whisper: "Master, you are definitely not a psychic creature, but apart from psychic creatures, there are still many unexplainable things in this world. I suspect that your senior brother is more likely to be bewitched!"
Wangcai's inference was exactly what he was worried about.
But he was unsure whether the matter should be reported directly to the local union.
First, there is no evidence.
Second, whether you are bewitched or held hostage, the person who causes the problem is your senior.
Report it to the union. If the method is too drastic, it may hurt him.
Just when I'm in a dilemma.
"jingle……"
The door of the bar was gently pushed open, and several workers wearing thick leather robes stepped towards the bar.
The heat coming from the stove quickly moistened the frost between their brows.
"Five bottles of whiskey! Damn it, the weather is so bad, I only got a 20% increase in salary, but it's not enough for me to pay for drinks!"
Taking off the thick hats on their heads, several strong brown-haired men began to complain with unhappiness on their faces.
Blue overalls were exposed under the leather deer, and it could be seen that they were all road traffic cleaners in the nearby city D.
Although the name of road cleaner is not pleasant, it is a job that many people envy.
Due to the special climate changes in City D's environment, especially in this bad weather, every cleaner is calculated based on hourly wages.
Of course, this job requires workers who are quite strong and have extensive experience in operating various heavy machinery to be competent.
After all, some road clearing often encounters a lot of trouble, such as trees broken by heavy snow.
There may even be attacks from wild animals during cleaning.
We also have to face changeable and severe cold weather.
Therefore, this job is often taken care of by Russians who are born with stronger bodies.
Ding Xiaoyi's eyes were quickly attracted by these big men.
No, to be precise, I was attracted by their words.
Although the roe deer are wearing thick leather outside, they look like tanks.
But in the bar, when they take off their leather robes and reveal short sleeves, they still give people the feeling of being human and bear-like.
The thick hair on the arms may be caused by the friction of the leather robes and the generation of static electricity, which makes the hair fluffy at this time.
Vodka, which is difficult for ordinary people to accept, is more like plain water in their mouths.
Five people, each 300ml bottle of vodka was almost empty in just five or six minutes.
While drinking, I heard their complaints.
In addition to the curse of the weather, there are also poor pay and a lack of staff.
What interests me the most is that they will cooperate with an archaeological team tomorrow morning to go into the mountains to conduct archaeology.
This is simply terrible.
"Damn it, did this archaeological team grow up eating dung? Going into the mountains in such cold weather, my God, I want to resign. This is simply going to die!"
A strong Russian man cursed.
But his decision was quickly rejected by others.
"Ivan, you idiot, believe me, if you dare to resign, you will be crying and screaming to come back in less than a week, but by that time, your position will have been replaced by someone else!"
Road sweepers are one of the few jobs that earn an hourly wage.
The worse the weather is, the greater the salary increase. Although this time it is only a 20% increase, after one week, their salary can reach that of ordinary workers for half a year.
Of course, with a high salary, you also have to bear huge risks.
The number of road sweepers who die every year is at least three digits.
But young Ivan seemed a little drunk, shaking his head indifferently and saying: "I won't go, not even to death..."
As he spoke, he shook his body and walked to the bathroom.
"Master, the archaeological team they are talking about seems to be the one your senior mentioned. After all, I don't think anyone except them would be crazy enough to go into the mountains in this weather. And this always reminds me of something.
Something.”
"What??"
Ding Xiaoyi wiped the beer from his mouth and locked his eyes on the young man named Ivan.
Wangcai smiled coldly and told a story.
"That's the ancient time in my memory.
Some officials transporting food specially choose to set sail when the storm is the strongest.
Because they had secretly seized the grain from a ship, sold it to wealthy businessmen, and then secretly dug open the bottom of the ship.
The people and the boat sank together, and afterwards they blamed it on natural disasters."
When it comes to prosperity, although it is not stated explicitly, the implication is quite obvious.
My senior student has a problem, and the problem is huge. There may be some ulterior secrets hidden behind the so-called archeology.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi took a deep breath, slowly sat up, and walked towards the bathroom.
It took about a while.
Seeing that Ivan had not walked out of the bathroom, the Russian leader suddenly became worried.
After all, there are not many cases where someone gets drunk and drowns himself in the toilet.
"I'm going to check on this little guy and pray he doesn't throw his head in the toilet!"
As he spoke, he held a wine bottle in one hand and walked towards the bathroom. However, just when he was about to push the door open, the bathroom door was suddenly opened, and he saw young Ivan walking out of the toilet with a drunken expression on his face.
He grinned and fell straight onto the chest of the Russian in front of him.
"Damn it, this guy just drank so much and he's not going to be able to survive anymore. Come on, help me put some clothes on for him. Let's go back to the dormitory."
Seeing this, the leading Russian waved his hand and asked people to come over and help. The four big men were obviously used to this. After quickly putting on the thick roe deer skin on him, they directly carried the person out.
But no one noticed that Ivan had a beautiful jade ring on his finger...
