Nomenclature of Night
Chapter 31: Lee Consortium
As night fell, Qing Chen seemed to have become a habit of skipping classes.
It stands to reason that skipping classes so many times is long overdue for parents.
But the key is that Du Yihong, his head teacher, has been asking for leave. From the beginning of the crossing incident to the present, the other party hasn't shown up once, and other teachers will not talk to Qingchen.
So, when you can skip class, do not hesitate to skip class.
After get off work hours, the narrow pedestrian road has become lively, and shops selling roasted sweet potatoes, watermelon, and cold dishes on both sides of the road are already out.
When his mother Zhang Wanfang returned to her natal family when he was young, his father would be lazy and take him to the street to eat a bowl of rice noodles worth 50 cents.
At that time, Qing Chen felt that his father was too perfunctory to himself, but now thinking about it, maybe that was the best time in his childhood.
At that time, his father hadn't gambled, his parents hadn't divorced, and his grandma didn't dislike him.
At that time, a fifty cents of rice noodles is now fifteen yuan, and everything seems to be impossible.
After he entered the fourth yard, he suddenly found two men squatting on the side of the road smoking.
The sky was getting darker, Qing Chen couldn't see the other side's face, only the red sparks of cigarette butts were flickering.
Originally, Qing Chen thought that this was a mysterious organization that came to look for him, because the other party's expression was not normal, so he looked around from time to time.
But then he found out that the other party didn't react at all when he passed by.
Qing Chen walked into the corridor and smelled the scent coming from the building. Li Tongyun waited at his door early: "Brother, mom will finish the meal soon, and she asked me to wait for you here."
"What if I study by myself last night, you don't have to wait for me," Qing Chen touched Li Tongyun's little head.
"You haven't gone to self-study at night these days," Li Tongyun said as he pulled up his sleeves and walked upstairs.
As soon as he opened the door, Qing Chen saw that the previously broken furniture in the house was gone, and the house had changed from the decadent scene of the past, as if many things had been replaced with new ones.
Jiang Xue was busy wearing an apron in the kitchen, and she said without turning her head when she heard the door opened: "Is Qingchen here? Sit down. There is only one soup left."
Qing Chen looked at the dining table, sweet and sour pork ribs, small fried yellow beef, capers and pork froth, hot and sour potato shreds, it looked like a meal.
Compared with the meals that are not salty or weak in prison 18, this is a real improvement in food.
"Aunt Jiang Xue, what are you celebrating?" Qing Chen wondered.
Jiang Xue came out with the soup pot, and said with joy: "I told you before that I opened a mechanical limb clinic in the inner world."
"Well, I heard you mentioned it," Qing Chen got up and helped take the soup pot and put it on the table.
Jiang Xue returned to the kitchen to serve rice and take chopsticks: "I was worried about this clinic before, because traveling through the past does not inherit memory, so people came to me to modify mechanical limbs, and I didn't know how to do it. "
Qing Chen listened silently.
However, Jiang Xue continued to say: "Those who come to modify the mechanical limbs, one by one, look fierce, and the security of the city on the 18th is particularly bad at night, and it is not safe to walk on the street after 8 o'clock, so I always pay. Very worried."
This is why Jiang Xue wanted to entrust Li Tongyun to Qing Chen temporarily, because she herself didn't know whether she would be able to return after crossing.
"But it's all right now," Jiang Xue said with a smile: "I don't know what's going on. People from the Li's consortium suddenly found my small clinic and said they wanted to buy shares."
"Li..." Qing Chen murmured to himself.
"I also told you that the consortium on the other side of the world is the sky. As long as the consortium shares in the industry, the criminals will all go around," Jiang Xue happily sat at the dining table: "They not only gave me one. For the money, I exchanged it for a holographic neon sign with the Lee logo. Now I am much safer in the world."
Qing Chen laughed: "With the help of the Li's consortium, that should indeed be celebrated."
"I don't have to trouble you now, Xiaoyun's grandma doesn't have to leave home," Jiang Xue is very satisfied with the current situation, and she even said to Qingchen with a smile: "Did you not envy the traveler before? Whenever you really cross over, come to the 18th city to find me. Aunt Jiang Xue may not be able to do anything else, but it’s okay to protect you."
Qing Chen sighed in his heart, he was really in the 18th city, but it was a pity that ordinary people couldn't help him in his situation.
The battle for the shadow of the Qing clan, the inheritance of the knight organization, these two things have long surpassed the cognition of ordinary traversers.
"By the way, Aunt Jiang Xue," Qing Chen asked, "have those people in black looking for you again?"
"They didn't find me, I found them," Jiang Xue said: "After I entrusted Xiaoyun to you before, I wanted to contact me and see if I could get their help in the inner world."
Jiang Xue continued: "It's just that they said that the organization has just been established, and it's hard to play a role in the inner world, so I can't help it."
After the meal, Jiang Xue went to wash the dishes, leaving Qing Chen and Li Tongyun sitting at the table.
At this moment, Qing Chen suddenly asked, "You are also a traverser."
Li Tongyun blinked his eyes and asked, "Brother Qingchen, what are you talking about?"
"Last time, you asked for the name of your mother's clinic. As a result, this time the Lee Consortium became a shareholder of her clinic, and it was so caring to protect it," Qing Chen said, "You don't have to admit it, but I can also use these The clue tells your mother."
Li Tongyun immediately persuaded: "Don't tell mother!"
Qing Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and made no mistake.
Before returning yesterday, he reviewed all his recent memories and found a strange thing.
After learning that her mother had opened a clinic, Li Tongyun's first reaction was not to be curious about the inner world, but to ask her mother's clinic name first, which was obviously deliberate.
Therefore, he only used a trading opportunity yesterday and asked Li Shutong to come to the list of members of the Li's consortium.
There is indeed the name Li Tongyun in it.
Traveling between the two worlds, the name and body are their own, this can't be wrong.
Qing Chen asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell your mother?"
"There are few people in the world who dare to care about me, but if I let my mother know, she will definitely care about me on both sides," Li Tongyun said cowardly, "Don't tell my mother, I can give you money. I have a lot of pocket money in the world."
Qing Chen said without hesitation: "I'm not a traverser, why do I want the money over there."
When Li Tongyun saw what he said so simply, he was puzzled: "Aren't you a traverser?"
"Of course not," Qing Chen denied: "That...how much pocket money do you have in the watch world?"
Li Tongyun was stunned for a moment: "You want to cheat children's money too!?"
Qing Chen: "..."
