After spending a solid day in Gu Xingze's apartment, it was finally time to go back and accept the results.
Gu Xingze drove her to the designated location, avoiding the surveillance cameras, and parked her in the alley of the old community.
Yun Shu had already learned how to open the doors of several luxury cars, so she easily got out of the car and waved to him.
"I'm leaving."
Gu Xingze still put his hands on the steering wheel and looked at her without saying anything.
She stood there and thought for a while, then got halfway into the car and reached out to him from the passenger side.
"I hope everything goes smoothly when we meet next time. Can I shake hands?"
His warm palms wrapped around her, curling her hands into fists.
"What is success? What capitalists want is a quick solution and early profit. A protracted war is not good for anyone."
"I know capitalist, your hand is so hot, can you let go?"
She was the one who said the handshake was uncomfortable, and she was the one who wanted to break free from the uncomfortable grip.
Gu Xingze lightly sneered. Ever since his idea was exposed today, he no longer pretends to be a good person. Instead of loosening his grip, he tightens his grip: "Don't overdo your performance later, I will keep watching."
As if warning, Yun Shu nodded casually in agreement.
"good."
Anyway, there is no such thing as overacting. Anything that is not clearly explained is just empty talk.
Gu Xingze then let go of her and watched her walk out of the alley from the car.
Yunshu's steps are brisk, she feels blue when she looks at the sky, soft when looking at the clouds, and cute when she looks at the stray cats running by the roadside.
In the free space, the air you breathe is unparalleledly fresh.
She tried her best to suppress her excitement and walked among the surrounding buildings. She sat in the elderly exercise center in the community and watched a few chirping children sliding down the slide.
When she saw a few old people walking back together, she walked towards the convenience store she had agreed to.
There were many people in the convenience store. The automatic glass door recognized her approach, opened it and said "Welcome", and several people inside subconsciously looked up at her.
Yun Shu looked at the automatic door for a long time, and then carefully walked in after recognizing it for the third time and opening it. She faced the scrutiny of others and imitated them in picking things from different shelves.
A bottle of yogurt ranged from RMB 3.5 to RMB 12, and a box of chestnut roast chicken rice, which looked cold, served RMB 18. She kept correcting her impression of the city's prices in her mind.
Then I walked around in areas I had never seen before and carefully looked at the price of everything.
People next to me walked out one after another. Someone said something to the clerk at the checkout counter. Soon a girl wearing a clerk's uniform came over and asked her from a distance: "Hello, do you need something? I can do it."
Find it for you."
Yun Shu straightened up from the shelf of automatic toothbrushes and smiled sheepishly at her: "I just wanted to take a look. Can I pay by credit card in your store?"
The clerk nodded: "Okay."
"I want to buy something to eat, but the food over there seems to be cold."
Clerk: "You can put it in the microwave to heat it up. Or if you want to eat it freshly cooked, we have Guandong cooking here."
Yun Shu asked curiously: "What is oden?"
The clerk looked at her a little strangely, but still led her forward: "You can see, many people like to eat this."
Walking to the cashier, Yun Shu looked at the bubbling ingredients in Jiugong Gri through the plastic barrier.
The radish and fish balls skewered on bamboo sticks were put down, and the hot steam coming out of the soup pot covered the baffle with a layer of mist, but the rich fragrance could pass through all obstacles and rush to the tip of her nose.
"Is this oden? This is what I want." She poked the transparent baffle with her fingertips and leaned close to take a look.
The clerk took a paper tube and asked, "How many items do you want?"
Oh, we also need to order food. She pointed to a few compartments inside and watched as a box of oden was placed and handed to her hand.
Then she took out her card.
The clerk swiped the card on the POS machine and the money was successfully deducted for 18 yuan.
Yun Shu took the card back and smiled at the clerk.
The person she was waiting for was coming soon.
Just as he was getting ready to go out after picking up his things, the clerk suddenly pointed at his neck, lowered his voice and said nervously: "Do you... need help with your neck? I can call the police."
"Thank you, but I'm fine."
After saying that, he stood half a meter in front of the automatic door and waited for the door to fully open before walking out.
…
At the same time, two kilometers away.
Ning Siyun was staring at the traffic monitoring on the computer, searching for familiar figures on the screen.
There were some red bloodshot eyes in his eyes from staying up late, and they were a little dry after looking for a long time. He could only close his eyes from time to time to relieve the pain.
The mobile phone thrown next to him dinged, which was a text message alert.
His movement of closing his eyes stopped for a moment, and then he immediately took the phone.
It's a bank card debit text message, the consumption amount is 18 yuan.
Zhou Jingmo on the side looked up at him and asked in a low voice: "What?"
"She used money from the card."
The silent room suddenly relaxed a little. Zhou Jingmo took a deep breath and stood up: "Let the bank check the transaction address."
This can be found out quickly. Ning Siyun and Qi Zhou also stood up and walked out, got in the car and waited for the bank to check the information.
Considering the condition of these two people, Qi Zhou took the initiative to apply to be a driver. Fortunately, Wen Jinnian had already left last night, and the atmosphere is still there.
"Where?" he asked.
Ning Siyun answered the bank's call and gave an address: "A convenience store in Beicheng Community."
They knew about the old community but had never been there. Qi Zhou searched on the navigation: "Two kilometers away, where did she go?"
No wonder I can't find it here. It's still an old community and there probably aren't many cameras.
Zhou Jingmo closed his eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice: "Drive faster."
Qi Zhou glanced at him, started the car and turned the steering wheel, saying: "We will find him soon. Brother Zhou, please stop keeping such a cold face. Yun Shu will be scared when she sees you. Ning San, how much did she spend?"
?Why didn’t you use your card yesterday?”
Ning Siyun was also nervous: "Eighteen yuan, maybe to buy dinner."
Dinner for 18 yuan, in the center of Haicheng City, is just some snacks and bread.
Ever since she came to Zhou Jingmo's side, she had always eaten the best food. Now when she went out to eat bread worth eighteen yuan, she could only think of her miserable appearance no matter how much she thought about it.
Qi Zhou closed his mouth and sighed.
The distance of two kilometers only took a few minutes of pressing the accelerator, and they soon arrived at Beicheng Community.
Although the old six-story residential building is not as beautiful as the high-end buildings now, it is a real symbol of wealth. If it needs to be demolished, each family will not be able to afford hundreds or tens of millions.
People coming in and out of the community were mostly old people and children. Qi Zhou slowed down and lowered his car window, asking passers-by where the convenience store was.
A passer-by pointed in the distance: "Foreward to the right, do you see the stone table where Go is played? There is a girl sitting next to it, and beyond that is the convenience store."
All three of them looked over. Behind the bamboo forest in the flower bed, a girl and a dirty stray cat were sitting side by side. One person and one cat were sharing a piece of cheap oden. In the gradually blurring light, they looked loving.
And cozy.
"Don't turn on the lights and drive over." Zhou Jingmo whispered.
