can't go wild

It was early morning when Aino woke up, and everyone else was asleep.Opening the curtains and looking out, the small town of Mingchuan has long since lost its lights, only a few street lamps on the road are dimly illuminated, as weak as fireflies in a moonlit night.

After getting up and pouring a glass of water, Aino turned on his phone and flipped through the information that Cassia had posted on the app.

The designer of Dream Island has been found, but not one person, but a team of college students who were still a little immature back then.Now this team is no longer what it used to be, a little lonely, and a little famous, but no matter who it is, it has never mentioned Dream Island to the outside world.

Jueming found the report on Dream Island back then. There was a group photo of Chen Zheng and them on the report. The identities of both parties and a sentence were simply marked on the report: They vowed to build the No. [-] Dream Paradise in China, hence the name of Dream Island. born.

The combination of successful young entrepreneurs and energetic college students really fits the word "dream".But among these people, only Chen Zheng was a native of Mingchuan, and he was an orphan.

The current location of Dream Island is the original site of the orphanage where Chen Zheng was.When Chen Zheng was in college, the orphanage was demolished. Later, the land was bought by Chen Zheng, who made a fortune, and he put forward a plan to build an entire tourist area.

If so, then the first half of the story belonging to Dream Island is complete.This dream island actually belongs to Chen Zheng's dream island. An orphan worked hard and finally got ahead, so he built a dream paradise on the original site of the orphanage.

Maybe this comes from Chen Zheng's childhood dream?Or is it for the purpose of returning home?

No matter which one it was, Aino wanted to see Chen Zheng very much now, but Chen Zheng was gone.The message that Cassia sent to Aino was limited to a long period of speculation.

Customer Service Elf: Someone saw Chen Zheng when he first went bankrupt, and there were posts discussing him on the local forums.He seems to be raising money everywhere to prepare for a comeback, but there is no follow-up.He was an orphan, unmarried, and had no family. After selling his property, he lived in a rented house, but the information about the rented house was only at the end of that year, and his address was no longer found.But after listening to your investigation, I found out that Chen Zheng doesn't seem like the kind of person who collapses after a single failure. If he disappeared without a trace, could he be dead?

Customer service elf: Cang killed so many people, and there are still several skeletons whose identities have not been confirmed. Maybe one of them is Chen Zheng.

It has to be said that this is a very possible guess.Aino pondered, and continued to browse related information on the Internet, about Chen Zheng, about the orphanage, and about Dream Island.

Before I knew it, time passed quietly, and the sun rose.

Xing Zhou knocked on the door and took Xiangye out for breakfast.

While sitting in the breakfast shop waiting for food, he told Aino the truth about Shen Yanzhi.This is the result of his careful consideration. It is better to cut the mess with a blunt knife than to cut the flesh with a blunt knife.Aino has the right to know the truth, and even though he is young, his temperament is far superior to his peers, so we can't really treat him as a child.

Aino was silent for a long time, and said, "I see. Who will investigate the Guanshuitan?"

Skipping all the questioning sessions, Aino has already jumped directly to the solution.Being so calm and decisive should have made people feel gratified, because it means that he has shown the potential to be an excellent teammate in such a short period of time, but Xing Zhou frowned again - Aino is still a child after all.

Xing Zhou felt very contradictory.

At this time, the boss finally brought breakfast, two bowls of wontons and steamed buns, the heat blurred his vision, and allowed him to put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind for a while, and replied, "Zong Mian."

Aino was the person concerned, even the victim. He had been to Guanshuitan once and found nothing unusual, so there was no need to go there a second time, lest he would hurt himself.It is most appropriate for Zong Mian to handle it, and he can do it by himself.

Hearing this, Aino nodded and said nothing.

Xing Zhou could see his strangeness, because he didn't eat coriander, but the boss probably accidentally dropped a piece in his bowl, and when he was drinking the soup with a spoon, he drank it directly, and his expression didn't change. Change.Carefully recalling the past, when Xiangye mentioned Song Ling and Shen Yanzhi, he seldom used the titles of "parents" or "parents", and they always called them by their first names.This sounds a little cold, but it is more like deliberately avoiding.

Soon, Aino finished the whole bowl of wontons.Xing Zhou picked up a few more steamed buns for him with chopsticks, and he ate them one by one, but he didn't taste much from the beginning to the end.

The last one, Aino still stuffed it directly into his mouth like before, but he ate a mouthful of oily chili, which was so hot that his tongue was no longer his own.It was unsightly to spit it out, he swallowed it in a hurry, and stared at Xing Zhou.

"Can't eat spicy food?" Xing Zhou looked calm, as if he didn't dip those peppers on purpose just now.

"I, can." Aino gritted his teeth.

"Then eat another one?"

"full."

Seeing his livid face, Xing Zhou smiled silently, and bought another bag of soy milk for him to change the taste.Aino reluctantly took the soy milk, biting the straw like he was biting Xing Zhou's neck.

But that's right, young people should be alive.

Xing Zhou let him flinch, went to pay, saw the boss passing by with several large bowls of noodles, and stretched out his hand to naturally pull Xiangye behind him, so as not to bump into him.

No matter how confused Aino's thoughts were, he understood Xing Zhou's intentions at this moment.He peeked at Xing Zhou's broad back, his arms were close to him, and the original gnashing of teeth changed.

Feeling that Xing Zhou was about to turn his head, Aino quickly looked away.Seeing that he didn't look at him, Xing Zhou thought he was still angry, and asked him if he would eat sweet potatoes as he passed the sweet potato stand.

Aino said blankly: "No."

He really didn't say a word more.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Xiaoluo went to work again on time.Accompanied by a burst of singing of "twisting neck and twisting buttocks", Cassia happily appeared in the headset, "A good day has begun again."

Aino: "Did you find Chen Zheng?"

Cassia: "No. My colleagues are working overtime to look for it, and I also asked Captain Liu, but Chen Zheng really seems to have evaporated, and there is no news at all."

The information group is organized in shifts, divided into three shifts to ensure that there are people online at each time period.

Xing Zhou also knew that they were investigating Chen Zheng, so he said, "It is true that some of those skeletons have not yet been identified, but they do not match Chen Zheng's height and age."

Jue Ming: "Where did he go? It's not easy to find. He hasn't shown up for so many years. Maybe he has left Mingchuan and gone far away."

Xing Zhou: "There is another kind of people who are easily overlooked."

Aino: "Homeless?"

Jue Ming interrupted again, "He can't be so miserable, can he?"

"It's possible." Aino pondered for a while, and said, "I saw a post on a local forum about homeless people. There are many reasons for becoming a homeless person, some of which are beyond our imagination. Even if we know where our home is Those who don’t want to go back, there are plenty of people.”

That post was posted by a team of volunteers, a group of students, very socially responsible.They will regularly send warmth to the homeless, and they have seen all kinds of things in the world, and they are quite touched, so they posted that post.

Aino also remembered a place name: No. 108, Meinan Road.

In fact, Mingchuan also has a shelter for the homeless, which can provide them with some help, but the homeless do not like to go there, they like to go to a 24-hour small restaurant on Meinan Road.

The owner of the restaurant is a blind old lady and her son and daughter-in-law. It was not open all day, but the whole family is kind-hearted. One winter, when the snow fell too much, they opened the door to let the homeless Go in and spend the night.Over time, the small restaurant became a short-term safe haven. It was still on the side of a fork in the national highway. A long-distance truck driver passed by. Seeing that there were still people in the store in the middle of the night, he accidentally bumped into it to eat. Twice, the business hours of the restaurant were extended longer and longer, until now, it has simply become a 24-hour business.

Volunteers often go to help, and people want to donate money to them, but they are all rejected.Being so high-spirited and bright has also ushered in more praise for them.

On the way there, Aino dug out the posts related to homeless people and small restaurants and read them carefully.Knowing the existence of Lu Ye and seeing too much darkness, when he first saw such a good person and good deed, he immediately doubted its authenticity.

He knew that he was wrong, but before seeing the truth, he couldn't control his thoughts.

Jueming is always optimistic. He said: "There is true love in the world, and such good people and good deeds should be reported. Otherwise, the reputation of Mingchuan will be ruined by Cang. How annoying. But people don't want to Accepting donations, I should not be happy to be disturbed all day long, it is true that it is plain."

While talking, Meinan Road arrived.Aino saw the unremarkable small roadside restaurant through the car window, then glanced at the two homeless people sitting in the shade of a tree not far away, opened the door and got off the car.

It was early in the morning, and it was already past the meal time, so there were not many people in the store, and the air conditioner hadn't been turned on yet.The two of them entered the store just as the proprietress came out of the back kitchen with the food. Seeing them, she greeted them enthusiastically, "What do you two want to eat?"

Xing Zhou: "Hello, I want to find someone."

The proprietress obviously misunderstood, with a look of hesitation on her face, she said, "You guys are from the TV station again, right? We agreed that we won't accept interviews."

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the guests said, "Don't be madam, isn't the TV report pretty good? You are doing good deeds, and you are not ashamed. Why don't you? It's on TV."

"What do you know?" The proprietress scolded with a smile.

Xing Zhou's gaze fell on Aino, and he found that Aino had been staring in one direction since he entered the store.He followed his line of sight and found a kind old lady sitting in the corner, leaning on a cane, nodding cheerfully, not knowing which side she was agreeing with.The guests next to her leaned over to talk to her, and she responded, but her eyes were cloudy and dull, obviously blind.

"I think she looks familiar." Aino said.

"Like who?" Xing Zhou asked.

The proprietress also noticed that they were looking at her old lady. She has opened a restaurant for many years and has met many people, but she rarely sees people with looks and demeanor like Xing Zhou and Xiangye. He didn't drive anyone out, and asked tentatively, "Are you looking for my old lady?"

Aino: "Your old lady, did you work in an orphanage?"
