Chapter 116 Home
With the arrival of the ambulance, a blue sports car, like a phantom, followed. A mature woman ran off the car. The woman was wearing a professional outfit and had a trace of dust on her face. However, these traces added a seductive and mature atmosphere to the woman. The woman was very beautiful, but her eyes were very anxious. Seeing the smoky makeup woman lying on the ground covered in blood, the woman screamed and ran over.
The ambulance staff sent the two injured people into the ambulance, and the woman also followed the ambulance, leaving only the blue sports car. Soon after, a man walked to the sports car and drove away.
Zhao Tiezhu had no idea about what happened later. At this time, he was sitting in the co-pilot. The car was driven by Lucy. It took him about an hour to pass most of the city and arrive at the suburbs of FJ City. This is the old city of FJ. The renovation of the old city has not been fully carried out, so it still looks like it was from the 1990s, with blue bricks, tiles, and the old locust trees that witnessed the development of FJ.
There is no traffic here like the city center. The old road is already dilapidated. Occasionally, some motorcycles and bicycles pass by, and many children are running and playing on the road.
Zhao Tiezhu directly asked Lucy to park her car at the intersection of the old city. The two got out of the car. Lucy looked at the scene in front of her and was also amazed, as if she had returned to the 1990s.
"There are many locust trees here, so it was called the locust trees area a long time ago." Zhao Tiezhu said while taking Lucy to the depths of the old city.
"More than ten years ago, this place was the most prosperous area in FJ." Zhao Tiezhu touched the bricks on the wall, and there were some ivy growing on the bricks, which directly extended upstairs.
"I lived here for a long time. When I was very young, my parents left me. My grandmother said they were dead, so I didn't ask anymore. Later, my grandmother passed away, so I left here and went out to explore by myself." Zhao Tiezhu seemed to be recalling, or thinking, "I remember this was a small playground before." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to a deserted open space with weeds growing on the open space. Several children were lying on the grass, and they didn't know what they were looking for.
"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 he was only twenty years old. How could he afford it?
"Oh, at that time, I was strong and I went out to sell it. One was 200 yuan, 10 minutes at a time, 24 hours a day, and earn 30,000 yuan a day. It would be enough for two years to sell it. Haha." Zhao Tiezhu joked, but Lucy pondered for a moment, "10 minutes at a time. Tiezhu, you are so bad."
“…”
"Go here." Zhao Tiezhu walked into an alley and shouted to Lucy.
After turning around the alley a few times, a three-story building appeared in front of them. There were clothes hanging on the clothes hangers upstairs, and it seemed that someone was still living there.
"My former home was there. I haven't been back for several years." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to the second floor.
"Go up and take a look." Lucy smiled, and went up the second floor first, so Zhao Tiezhu had to follow.
Because a long time passed, the door of the room had rusted, but it was extremely clean, which made Zhao Tiezhu a little curious.
"Oh, the door is locked and can't get in." Lucy twisted the door handle and said disappointedly.
"Look at me." Zhao Tiezhu smiled and took a slit in a gap in the door panel. A small grid appeared on the door panel, with a copper key inside. Most people in the 1990s used this key.
"Wow, there is also a secret!" Lucy shouted in surprise.
"That's right, my grandma often went out to work for people. When I went out to play, I often threw the keys on her body. One key was worth 1 yuan. My grandma earned only more than 200 yuan a month, and she had to support me. Every time she lost the key, she had to feel distressed for a long time. Later, she simply made a secret wall on the door panel. Every time I went out, I would put the keys here. Anyway, there was nothing valuable in the house, so I was not afraid of stealing it." Zhao Tiezhu said, and opened the door with the key.
This is a small house, with a small living room, only about ten square meters. The living room and the kitchen are directly connected, and there are two bedrooms in the house.
"This one belongs to my grandma." Zhao Tiezhu pointed to the very simple decoration room. There was a bed, a table, a black and white TV, and a Bodhisattva, made of ceramics.
"The old man believed in Buddhism all his life. In the year of his death, he told me that he would put his ashes in the South China Sea. It took me half a year to arrive in the South China Sea and put the old man in the temple." Zhao Tiezhu's voice was calm, and Lucy walked into Zhao Tiezhu's room. There were a few posters on the wall of the room. It was nothing more than the four kings, Little Tigers, and young people at that time, only these idols were there. Unlike now, all the cats and dogs on the streets came out to be stars.
There was a wooden bed with a shabby quilt stacked on it, a few books on a table, and a few pots of unknown plants were placed 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 hint of doubt in his eyes. He hadn't come back for several years. Why is all this so clean?
"Tiezhu, I didn't expect you to live here before." Lucy's eyes were full of surprise. For her who grew up in the United States, this kind of house can only be seen in slums. Although her family can only be considered ordinary and not wealthy, she was still equipped with cars, computers and other things when she was a child.
"Ha, don't believe it. Twenty years ago, we were considered well-off, at the level of my family. But now we are developing too fast." Zhao Tiezhu walked towards his desk, and indeed, the table was very clean.
"Is anyone?" A weak voice suddenly came from outside. Zhao Tiezhu walked out of the room and saw that he was a woman with an average appearance and long hair.
"Pillar!" the woman screamed in surprise.
"Word!" Zhao Tiezhu was also very surprised.
"Zhuzi, when will you come back? Why don't you notify me?" The woman named Bug walked into the room with a look of surprise.
"I just came here today. Let's take a look. After so many years, you still live here?" Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
"No, my father gave me his convenience store. Now I'm running it. Let's go and sit in my house." As the insect said, he saw Lucy walking out of the room. Lucy's beauty, who is a woman, was also stunned. "Iron Pill, is this?"
"My friend. Lucy, Lucy, this is my childhood sweetheart, Li Qingcong, you can call her a bug."
"Hello." Bug smiled and shook hands with Lucy, "Let's go, go to my place to sit."
"You have been taking care of this room for so many years, right?" Zhao Tiezhu asked directly after leaving the door.
"Yes, you have been away for so many years, and it is obvious that this place is going to be deserted, so I will come over to take care of it once when I have time. Fortunately, you told me about the secret matter at that time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get into this house." The insect said while leading the way in front.
"Xiao Su, biscuits, and Chen Yiyan, are they still here?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.
"Xiao Su and Cookies are still here, Chen Yunyan is living in the city. It is said that they are almost daddy. We are still in touch with each other. It's just that you have been away for several years and there is no news." The insect's tone was filled with a hint of resentment.
"Haha, it's work. When will all those animals be called over and let's get together." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
"It's evening, I'll call you later."
