Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

We had a good night's sleep, and everyone had a good rest. The late-night snacks were also delicious, and we ate three meals in one night. new

In the morning, he had breakfast with the returning team. Zhou Rui said goodbye to Cao Wang and others. Before leaving, Zhou Rui gave each person a 200-yuan red envelope.

The money was cash withdrawn from the bank early in the morning, not much, just a lucky draw.

If nothing else happens, it will be difficult for us to meet each other again in this life. The so-called chance encounter is nothing more than this.

Cao Wang put on his helmet, grinned widely, waved his hand, and continued on his way with the returning team.

"Brothers! Go home for the New Year!"

The mighty motorcade aroused the curiosity of many passers-by.

After seeing off the returning team, Zhou Rui and his group went to the police station for the last time. Everyone left their contact information and signed a letter of commitment. It would take a long time to wrap up a major case, but it was Zhou Rui and the others' part. It's over for now.

After getting into the car, the group of people set off again to the nearby Jingdezhen City.

Peeling oranges on the road, Li Wenqian said curiously: "Tong Xin, you look good today."

Tong Xin said with a guilty conscience: "Really? Maybe you slept well last night."

Not to mention what Jingdezhen is famous for, a few people bought some gadgets at the porcelain market, had lunch and left.

Due to yesterday's delay, they sped up their journey today without ever getting off the highway. They drove along the border between Jiang Province and Fu Province for six hours, changing drivers once in the middle, and finally entered after dark at night. Meishi on the border of Guangzhou Province.

After one more night's rest, we can return to Qinghe County tomorrow. This journey is finally coming to an end.

Everyone was very tired at night, but how could they not have a big meal after entering the territory of Guangzhou? Zhou Rui found a restaurant, Yong Tau Fu, Salt Baked Chicken, Poon Choi

On the afternoon of the third day, a group of people finally returned to their hometown, Qinghe County. New 𝐱.𝐜𝐨𝐦

To be honest, it was Zhou Rui's first experience in driving back to Qinghe in his two lives. He once drove an extra 20 kilometers because he missed an intersection. After getting off the expressway, he drove on national and county roads for more than an hour. Finally, at dusk At that time, we entered the boundaries of Qinghe County.

Looking at the familiar buildings on both sides of the road, several people were in a good mood.

It's not that I'm timid about being close to home. After all, I haven't been away for three or five years, but I feel a little excited in my heart.

Sijiang Road, the main road entering Qinghe, welcomes tourists who are out of town.

When passing by an area, Zhou Rui looked to the side, where "Xintai Auto Repair" was located.

It is currently closed, leaving only the mottled signboard and rolling shutters. I don’t know why.

It was originally said that if it was running, the car could be sent for maintenance.

Zhou Rui was also familiar with the bridge tunnel ahead. He and Lu Xubo had a late-night snack here.

Yeah, a normal late night snack.

According to the location, the first person to arrive was Song Bin. The "Banshan Yashu" where his home is located is just outside Qinghe County.

This is also the place where Audio-Technica first recorded songs, but it is estimated that there are not many traces left now, as Song Bin moved them to Shanghai.

At the door of Song Bin's house, stood a woman about fifty years old. She had an ordinary face, but it was easy to tell from her dress and temperament that she was usually pampered.

This was also the first time Zhou Rui met Song Bin's parents.

"Hello, aunt. New 𝟲𝟵Book Bar→𝟲𝟵𝘀𝗵𝘂𝘅.𝗰𝗼𝗺"

The woman glanced at Zhou Rui curiously. She naturally knew that her son was always with Zhou Rui, but she was usually busy with business and never paid attention to it.

A Mercedes-Benz is nothing to her, but it would be a bit strange to put it on a young man who is the same age as her son and whose family is not in business.

After a few polite words and a happy New Year, the car continued to start and went to Li Wenqian's house.

Li Wenqian's family had a lot of luggage. Tong Xin helped pack it down below, and Zhou Rui carried it up and down. It took everyone a while to finish it.

When leaving, Zhou Rui rubbed Li Wenqian's head and said, "Let's rest for two days and then get back together again."

Li Huihua waved her hand and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Zhou. You must be tired from the journey. I will make an appointment with your mother then and the two families will have a meal together."

Zhou Rui said with a smile: "Yes, I will make arrangements when the time comes."

After getting back into the car, only Zhou Rui and Tong Xin were left, and the whole car became more spacious.

Zhou Rui glanced at Tong Xin through the rearview mirror, and the atmosphere in the car changed inexplicably.

"Don't you want to sit in the passenger seat?"

Until now, there has never been a girl sitting in the passenger seat of this car! Still a pure Yang body.

Tong Xin turned her face away and whispered: "I'll sit in the back. The back is spacious, otherwise my mother will get excited after seeing it."

Zhou Rui didn't try to persuade him any more and drove towards the community where Tong Xin's home was located.

When passing a bus stop, Tong Xin looked through the window, feeling a little dazed.

It’s only been more than half a year, why do I feel like I’ve been gone for so long?

Tong Xin's mother got the news early in the morning and was waiting at the gate of the community. She seemed to have met a neighbor and they were chatting.

Seeing the luxurious car, I was a little hesitant at first, until I saw Zhou Rui's face through the windshield, and the corners of my mouth widened.

"No more chatting! My daughter is back!"

The neighbors' eyes widened. It would be an exaggeration to say that this car was not the one in Qinghe County, but it definitely did not exceed the number of five fingers. They could not name it, but they knew it would not be cheap.

Tong Xin's mother felt particularly proud. She led the car all the way downstairs and shouted from the door of the unit: "Old Tong! Come down quickly, our daughter is back!"

The old boy couldn't tell whether he heard this voice. Anyway, the neighbors heard it clearly, and many people looked down.

Zhou Rui got out of the driveway: "Hello, Auntie, Happy Chinese New Year!"

Tong Xin's mother took Zhou Rui's hand: "Oh, Xiao Zhou, thank you for your hard work. You sent Xinxin back specially."

Zhou Rui scratched his face and said he couldn't afford to be a professional.

Tong Xin's mother held Zhou Rui's hand and didn't let go. Tong Xin rolled her eyes behind her and went to move her luggage.

"Take care of Xiao Di, open the trunk."

After waiting for a while, the car showed no response.

He glanced at Zhou Rui strangely: "Zhou Rui, why is the voice control not responding?"

Tong Xin’s mother was shocked: “This car is voice-controlled! It’s so advanced!”

Zhou Rui shed a drop of cold sweat.

This lame joke was played all the way without being exposed. Li Wenqian and Tong Xin firmly believed in the matter of "voice control"

Zhou Rui secretly pressed the car key in his pocket and said, "Maybe it's because the weather is cold and my reaction is slow."

Tong Xin's father also came down. He was not as enthusiastic as Tong Xin's mother, but he couldn't help but thank him.

Tong Xin stood at the entrance of the corridor with a box and said silently: "Hello~? Your daughter is here, has anyone seen her?"

Tong Xin's mother ignored her funny daughter and said to Zhou Rui: "Xiao Zhou, be sure to come up and sit down and have a cup of tea before leaving."

Zhou Rui waved his hands repeatedly: "No, auntie, my mother is still waiting at home."

As he spoke, a beautiful box was pulled out from the trunk. It was a porcelain gift box bought by Jingdezhen. It contained tea sets and dishes.

"A little gift. Happy Chinese New Year to uncle and aunt."

When leaving, Tong Xin secretly made a phone call gesture to Zhou Rui. Zhou Rui understood and walked away.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Rui's car stopped at the downstairs of No. 277 Tianhe Road.

He has very little luggage, only a small suitcase. As for the New Year gifts he bought for his parents, he will put them in the car first.

When he went upstairs, Zhou Rui clearly felt that there were far fewer residents in the building. The exhaust fans that had been running all year round had stopped. Even during meals, there was no smell of cooking fumes in the corridor.

Demolition is a foregone conclusion and construction will start after the new year. Yao Peili bought an elevator room in Qinghe County, but the renovation has not been completed. After much thought, she finally returned here to celebrate the New Year.

At least this Spring Festival, this is still Zhou Rui's home.

Zhou Rui took out the key that had not been used for half a year and opened the door. The familiar smell of Yao Peili's cooking was in the air.

Zhou Weigang, who was setting the dishes and chopsticks, heard the noise, turned his head and said with a smile: "You're back?"

In the kitchen, Yao Peili wiped her hands and stuck her head out: "Xiao Rui is back?"

The smile on the corner of his mouth rose unconsciously.

Zhou Rui put down his suitcase and smiled: "Back!"
