I heard that you are the number one assassin in Tiandu

"how much is it?"

"Fifty."

"What about the water?"

"Twenty yuan for hot, ten yuan for cold."

There is no eternal judgment about what is right and what is wrong in the world, and it must be discussed in detail according to the situation at that time.For example, it is ungrateful for a son not to return home at an early age, but it is affectionate to go thousands of miles to spend the Spring Festival with his elder brother who is like a father.After Min Qiu's sophisticated design and private collusion with his elder brother, he stopped his elder brother's well-checked sports car halfway from Shencheng in the name of inconvenient consignment during the Spring Festival, and rolled to get Hua Jin to refund the ticket , Drive south in person and send people home.

So the two got stuck on the highway.

As far as the eye can see, the density of vehicles on this road section is comparable to a large parking lot. The surrounding villagers jumped over the isolation belts on both sides of the road and ran to the expressway to sell instant noodles and biscuits.On Lunar New Year’s Eve, Min Qiu ate instant noodles worth 28 yuan, and lamented that it’s no wonder the service station he just passed by was full of heavy-duty transport vehicles.

Just finished drinking the noodle soup, another wave of villagers turned over the isolation zone: "20 la 20 la, instant noodles are cheap, send hot water for instant noodles!"

There's no point in waiting, Min Qiu rolled down the car window: "Bring me a bucket!"

"Well, there are some classmates who just took their car together. I'll just take a car by myself when I get off the expressway." Joaquin received a call from his mother, "Oh, there are a lot of cars on the road now, They are all rushing home for the Chinese New Year, and when there is no traffic jam... how long will it take if we don't traffic?"

Min Qiu glanced at 4h on the navigation. As a young man like the wind, he stretched out his fingers and made a "2".

Joaquin: "I'll be home in two or three hours, don't wait for me, why don't you eat first."

Min Qiu was eating noodles and listening to Joaquin's phone call—his dialect level was very strange, as long as the villagers who came up to sell things spoke a little faster, he wanted to scratch his ears, but no matter how fast Joaquin spoke He could understand everything, even if he didn't understand clearly, he only needed to look at his expression to understand the general idea.

"I know, I know, it's going very slow, we're not in a hurry, and you don't have to worry about it." Joaquin said with a smile, "Oh, how can it be so fast? We just finished the exam yesterday, and the teacher is going to celebrate the New Year, so why? So much time for you to correct the papers? When the results come out, I’ll ask you to watch them together, okay? Okay, I’ll call you when I’m about to get off the highway.”

A few motorcycles with flashing warning lights passed by in the emergency lane next to them. Min Qiu got off the car and looked into the distance. He heard other car owners beside him say: "There are fights ahead."

It's really worrying, how long will it take to unblock it?Bai Xia woke up early in the morning and assured Joaquin that he would be home before dark.There was a villager with a big plastic bag by the fence, and he waved to him: "Take two bags of biscuits!"

Just after paying for the biscuits, a battery police car slowly drove over the emergency driveway, and the speaker on the roof rang: "Bring an ID card to receive assistance on the road from XX to XX, each person has two steamed buns and one dish, only Take it once!"

The lunch box was simple, and the dishes were apologetic. Joaquin watched Min Qiu, who was eating from left to right, with concern, and handed over a tissue: "I didn't see you eating less this morning. Why are you still so hungry? Are you suffering from traffic jam anxiety syndrome?"

"What else can I worry about when you're here? Either I'm hungry or I'm free." Min Qiu smacked his lips, "But when you say it, I seem to be a little anxious, but it's not anxiety about being stuck in traffic."

Joaquin: "What are you anxious about?"

Min Qiu glanced at the rolling mountains in front of him, looked down at the shiny car logo on the steering wheel, and subconsciously pinched the phone in his hand, feeling wrong.He retracted his gaze and took a look at the people around him. In an instant, everything in the world became a phantom.

Min Qiu: "You."

Joaquin: "Me?"

Although he said that he would find a random hotel around Joaquin's house to live in, and he would be there whenever he was called, but of course Joaquin couldn't let him live in a hotel alone.

The two made an appointment, and Min Qiu would send him home first, and then go to a nearby town to find his elder brother and Qin Zhen. After the fifth day of the new year, Huajin would find an excuse to go to their place to play, and the distance between them was only five or six days away. time.On special days like the Spring Festival, a short visit to relatives to pay New Year's greetings, or a visit to the folk market, can be said to pass in the blink of an eye.

Shortening the three weeks to a few days seems to be the maximum effort, but Minqiu always feels that the most important point is missing here—all their itineraries are planned around the Spring Festival, but the center of the plan is But without him.

This feeling is so bitter and subtle that it is difficult to speak.In previous years, it didn't matter to him whether the Spring Festival was passed, how to pass it, or whether it was passed horizontally or vertically, but this year's Spring Festival seemed to be particularly attractive. Said that he could not be with Joaquin on the most important day.

At this time, what he thought was not that he had to hug Joaquin, even if he just simply sat without holding hands, just within sight and not in the video window, that would be fine.

He made a smiling face, as if on a whim: "Hey, can I go to your house? You just say that we have a good relationship, and I will come to your house to play?"

Joaquin opened his mouth halfway and said nothing, his face was full of embarrassment, his fingers were digging at the edge of the phone case, and his fingers turned white.

"It's okay to say something miserable." Min Qiu laughed, "I'm homeless, I don't have a place to go, or something, maybe Auntie will take me in for a few days as soon as she takes pity on me. What? Hehehe."

After he finished speaking, he opened a bottle of low-quality drink and drank it in a big gulp, as if it was just a joke.When he put the water bottle down, he felt uncomfortable all over. He didn't know whether it was the amount of coloring added to the broken drink that directly overwhelmed him, or whether it was Joaquin's non-commentary that broke his heart.

"No." Joaquin finally spoke.But he only gave a judgment, and the proof process was "slightly".

Min Qiu replied with a lonely heart: "Oh...it doesn't matter."

Joaquin does not put chili in the cooking, he can jump on the spot and shout "I'm so mad", Joaquin insists on him wearing long johns, he can wriggling and shouting "I don't want it, I don't want it", in the game Every time the equipment lock time is reduced by one month, the additional increase in attributes will be less. Joaquin allows him to play but does not allow him to continue to lock, so when he loses to his elder brother in some 1V1PK or when he is dry He would look up to the sky and shout "Ahhh, help me"... But now, he can only say "Oh, it's okay".

The obstacles in the road ahead were cleared, and before Min Qiu felt the pain of eating Kang Shuaifu instant noodles and drinking Tonger iced black tea, it was their turn to pass.There was almost no conversation between the two. The farther away from the blocked road, the fewer vehicles in the field of vision, and the faster they were driving. The female navigation voice prompted "You are speeding, please slow down, the front camera".

Gradually, the voice prompts began to connect seamlessly, and they kept talking and talking, even in Lin Chiling's voice, such repetition was tiresome.Min Qiu directly raised his hand and turned off the voice prompt, ready to drive to the finish line at this speed.Turning his head, when he was looking in the right rearview mirror, he suddenly found that Joaquin was clutching his seat belt tightly, his face pale.

The speed of the car slowed down slowly, and even a fully loaded bus passed them on the left.

Min Qiu: "I'm sorry, just now... I was stupid. It's too dangerous."

"I'm sorry." Joaquin said, "I didn't tell you earlier, my mother's personality is more sensitive... It should be said that she is more sensitive than ordinary people. Don't say that she will ask questions about a classmate at home, even if it is I passed someone on the stairs and stayed at the door for a while, and she was staring at the door and felt uncomfortable, so I couldn't tell her."

Min Qiu nodded: "Yes, I understand."

When a woman brings up a child alone, she is not only the child's reliance, but also the only guarantee of the family's income. She cannot bear a little risk, so she must live cautiously, not daring to have any minor illness or pain, and not How can you let a stranger in when you are in danger and the unknown?Joaquin's careful and appropriate habits of dressing tightly in winter, shutting doors and windows to cut off water and power when going out on weekdays are probably also taught by his mother. The inheritance is so precise, the original version must be more cautious.

"I didn't tell her about moving out, she still thinks I go back and forth between the dormitory and the study room every day." Joaquin said, "I don't have any relatives to go around, so I'll visit you on the fifth day, okay How about the fourth day? Ah...it’s not good to go out on the fourth day, so how about the third day? I’ll go to Qin Zhen’s house to find you on the third day.”

"Don't." Min Qiu wanted to be hypocritical, but no matter how hypocritical he was, he was too embarrassed to compete with his mother for his son, "It's better to spend more time with your mother at home, I'm fine."

The rest of the journey was not too seriously blocked. It was already dark when they arrived near Joaquin's house, and the two bid farewell downstairs.Joaquin: "Have you determined the route to Qin Zhen's house? You drive to the Garment Industrial Park first, and then go in that direction. The newly built road is easier to drive."

Min Qiu: "Well, I know, remember to come and see me in the third year of junior high school, don't forget."

Joaquin: "Didn't you say the fifth day?"

"Oh really!" Min Qiu saw that he couldn't pass the test by fooling around, "Then on the fifth day of the new year, I will pick you up then."

"No, no, you don't know if you haven't stayed here before. It's just such a street. When the time comes, it will be full of people. The car won't move. Don't scratch your car. I don't want to take the bus for half an hour. You are here Just wait at their house." Joaquin held the luggage bag in his hand, "Then I'm going up?"

Min Qiu dragged a corner of the bag without letting go, and directly pulled the bag upright in the air: "I'll help you get it up."

"No need, it's very close. Have you seen the window with the yellow light?" Joaquin pointed to a row of unremarkable old buildings, "My mother may be looking out of the balcony window right now."

The window Joaquin was pointing to was lit, presumably his mother had been waiting for him at home for a long time, right?Min Qiu let go.

After watching Joaquin turn into the small building, he didn't leave immediately, thinking that if Joaquin had him in his heart, maybe he would look out the window?

He leaned against the car door and looked around.This place is a little more open than he imagined before, not as dusty and smoky as he thought, and it is still a quiet small town; compared with the fashionable high-rise residences in big cities, these buildings seem to be built for fun, which makes people feel a little bit different. An illusion of "so short that you can climb up from the outer wall".

The only impressions that can be called good impressions are all because of the person who just went upstairs, right?The closer the building is to Joaquin's house, the more pleasing it is to him.

Although they are obviously of the same batch specification.

It was a bit late, and there were only a few households left with the lights on in the kitchens cooking. Due to the close proximity between the buildings, the occasional sound of cooking with spatulas and shovels could be heard clearly, and there seemed to be a little quarrel in the meantime. , and said words that Min Qiu could not understand.

He drove for almost a whole day with traffic jams and waiting on the road. In order to ensure safety and speed, he concentrated on the whole process, and considering that the person sitting next to him was Joaquin, he even took care of his expression. It needs to be light and smooth, and it needs to move smoothly and drive smoothly.

It was hard for him to relax and smoke a cigarette. Of course, he didn't have the energy to deliberately distinguish right from wrong, but the tone of the quarrel suddenly changed, and he finally understood a sentence——

A new voice he was familiar with shouted in a certain direction: "What are you doing!"
