Spy Family

Chapter 400 A little favor

Chen slowly returned home, but couldn't find the feeling of home.

Zhai Jing is still Zhai Jing, and the furnishings in the room have not changed at all. It is cold and no matter how high the regulator is turned, it cannot add a trace of warmth.

From day to night, whenever she had some free time, she would think about the same question: If she insisted on not leaving, could she still stay with her husband?

She thought she could, so she regretted it.

Once she boarded the ground-to-space spacecraft, there was no turning back. As soon as she arrived at the space station, news came from the ground that Shanlin City had been lost and Zhai Wangxing's spacecraft could not land. In order to avoid the possible arrival of Mewangxing missiles, she must return immediately.

It was a disorderly retreat. Chen Manchi had no right to choose at all. Before she could understand, she was sent to the deep sleep box. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in the space station of King Zhai.

Occasionally she would complain about Lu Yezhou, but when she thought that her husband might need Ye Zi's help in King Zhao, she immediately retracted all her complaints and instead prayed that those people from King Zhai who were stranded in King Zhao would be safe.

Zhai Wangxing has completely lost all rights and interests in Zhao Wangxing, and even lost all contact. The official can't say anything except expressing deep regret and vowing revenge. Those pervasive media have now lost their magic power and can only shout slogans.

Chen Manchi went to many places to inquire for information, including the Military Intelligence Office, but he couldn't even get through the gate.

Only Li Feng responded warmly to the reception and patiently explained to her why contact had been lost. "When Zhai Wangxing's fleet retreated, it destroyed Zhao Wangxing's space station. The space station is not only a spaceship port, but also a vital interstellar network node, so the current The situation is that King Zhao has lost contact with all planets, and communications can only be restored after the space station is repaired, which may take some time."

Instead of being comforted, Chen slowly became more anxious. A week later, she could no longer bear her random thoughts in her free time and decided to go to the store to continue her fortune-telling business.

The business has recovered well. When old customers heard that she was back, they visited the store one after another and introduced some new customers.

Everyone feels elusive about their destiny and wants to ask more questions than before.

Chen Manchi hides his anxiety and confusion and provides life guidance to clients in a serious manner.

This made it easier during the day, but at night, she was still tossing and turning, asking herself over and over again: If she insisted on not leaving, could she still stay with her husband?

On January 1, Xingyuan 306, Zhaijing City still held several New Year's Day celebrations as in previous years, but no matter how hard the actors performed, they could not arouse a cheerful mood.

There were basically no customers coming to the door today, and there were very few people on the street. Chen Manchi didn't want to stay at home, so he still came to the store and sat there, staring blankly out of the window, trying not to think about the torturous problem. It’s about recalling bits and pieces of the past, and my husband is in every bit of it.

She was so engrossed that she didn't even notice when the customer opened the door and entered the store.

The guest reached out and tapped twice on the table.

Chen Manchi woke up as if from a dream, and immediately showed an expression of surprise, because this was a completely unexpected guest for her.

"Didn't expect me to come?" Ru Hongshang's appearance has hardly changed and is still unparalleled in beauty. She is like a skilled home organizer, carefully hiding every tiny trace of the years, only the most demanding ones. Only the smallest flaws will be revealed under the eyes, and at the same time, it also looks a bit weird because of its excessive neatness.

"I thought... today is New Year's Day."

"Yes, I thought you were at home, but you were in the store. Didn't Lu Linbei spend the holiday with you?"

Chen Manchi almost cried when she heard the words "Lu Linbei", but she held it back. Just talking about her husband made her feel a little excited, "He didn't catch the spaceship and was left on the Zhaowang planet. "

"Lu Linbei went to Zhao Wangxing? When did it happen? Why?"

"He was drafted into the army and ordered to go to King Zhao, where..."

"Oh, it turns out I have a mission." Ru Hongshang only cared about other people's affairs to this extent, and immediately turned back to herself, "I came here to ask you for a small favor."

"Fortune telling? I happen to be free."

"You are quite famous, but let me... tell your fortune. I really need to understand my own destiny. I have always encountered unfavorable things recently."

"What aspect of fate do you want to know?"

"Career, when will my career take off?"

"Hey, you should be in your second spring now, right? Movies and TV series are coming one after another."

"Little fool, that's just the surface. Haven't you noticed that those movies and TV dramas only use my image instead of me? The world is becoming more and more unreasonable. People like me, but they would rather watch the virtual me. Rather than the real me. Performance has lost all meaning, and film and television are another form of simulation game."

Ru Hongshang was filled with emotions, and Chen Manchi couldn't help but feel a lot of sympathy, comforting him: "I still prefer live-action movies."

"There are fewer and fewer fools like you." Ru Hongshang didn't mean to belittle, but she didn't care about the other person's feelings at all. She could only tolerate her own existence in her heart.

Chen Manchi's sympathy decreased significantly, "I should at least pay you for using your image, right?"

"Of course, even if it's just similar, it won't work. I have a very powerful lawyer program that specializes in fighting copyright lawsuits for me. I make more money now than before. But I need to show up from time to time to let everyone remember the real thing. What do I look like, haven’t you noticed that I’m much thinner than before?”

"I found it." Chen Manchi didn't dare to give any other answer, "So you want me to figure out the future of live-action film and television?"

Ru Hongshang thought for a while, "You don't have to calculate to know that the future is slim. Even Ru Hongshang has difficulty finding real-life roles, and there is even less hope for others. From now on, everyone will use their real lives to gain fame, and then use avatars to film movies To make money, the performing arts are dying, the art of living is rising, and those nerds sitting in front of microcomputers are trying to seize the title of 'artist'."

"How can I help you?" Chen Manchi brought the topic back.

"Oh, I get so excited when I talk about art that I forget about business. You are very familiar with those people in Li Fenghui, right?"

Chen Manchi was stunned. He didn't expect to hear Mr. Li's name from Ru Hongshang's mouth. He said blankly: "I'm not too familiar with him. I meet him occasionally..."

Ru Hongshang's tone suddenly became stern, "Then do you know that Li Feng kidnapped my servant?"

Chen Manchi was stunned again, and then remembered what was going on, "Pan Luming?"

"who?"

"Pan - green - bright, green green, tomorrow's bright."

"It should be him. I only remember his last name is Pan. It turns out he has a name."

"Well, he has a name and a dream. He resigned from you and was not 'abducted' by someone."

Ru Hongshang laughed twice, thinking that this might increase wrinkles, she immediately put away her smile and said coldly: "Dream? A servant's dream should be to take good care of his master. Am I not good to him? Even in the most difficult situation At that time, I didn't fire him, but he left me whenever he had the chance."

"Ms. Ru can hire another servant, and I believe you have more than one servant at home."

Ru Hongshang crossed her index fingers together and said, "I have changed among the ten, but none of them are as good as Pan..."

"Pan Luming."

"It's not as good as him. I need him back. Send a message to Li Feng for me: if my servant is released, they will receive a large donation. I know they need money, so be smart."

"Why should I deliver the message?"

"Because Li Fenghui and his accomplices are all weirdos and refused to talk to the representatives I sent. Pan... Luming was influenced by them and became ruthless. I have every reason to believe that Li Fenghui and their associates treated my servant An evil transformation was carried out, turning him into another person.”

"In that case, why bother asking Mr. Pan to come back?"

"I have found an expert who can change 'evil' back to 'good'." Ru Hongshang said quite seriously, obviously believing in this idea.

Chen Manchi didn't understand this kind of thing and couldn't refute it, but every time she went to visit Li Fenghui, she would always see Pan Luming. She didn't feel that he had been reformed at all, and she didn't believe that Li Fenghui had to reform a servant, so she shook her head. He said: "Mr. Li and I just know each other, not very close, so we can't help. Please ask Ms. Ru to find someone else. You know so many people, there must be a better choice than me."

Ru Hongshang smiled and said, "Is it because of jealousy?"

"Jealous? Jealous...that you are a star?"

"Jealous that I am more popular than you. Although many people say that our appearance is somewhat similar, our lives are completely different, and you are at best a crude substitute. I don't want to be too direct, but the fact is: Because Lu Linbei couldn't get me, he settled for the next best thing and married a woman who is slightly similar to me. So you are hostile to me and are unwilling to do me a small favor. "

Chen Manchi was so surprised that he almost laughed out loud. He had countless words in his mind that he wanted to throw at Ru Hongshang, but in the end he said: "It's a pity that my husband is trapped in Zhao Wangxing and there is no way to prove Ms. Ru's guess."

"No need to guess, I know the man's thoughts clearly. Lu Linbei's eyes have revealed everything. Forget it if you don't want to help, I thank you for your straightforwardness. Next, I can only ask the police to come to the door."

"Catch me?"

"Catch Li Feng, the betrayer, and everyone else. Arrest them all."

"The police don't just arrest people."

"This is not about arresting people randomly. What did you just say? Why does Pan have a dream? If rebellion can be considered a dream, he does have one. He is a fool. He left me to join an extremist organization and has been targeted by the police for a long time. , if I say a word, he will be thrown into prison. Do you think I am begging him to come back to me? No, I just save him once because of his hard work in the past years. But this is the chance, If he refuses to wake up, I won't be able to save him when he is arrested by the police."

Chen Manchi was shocked, "Mr. Li and the others are not an extremist organization, and they have no intention of rebellion. He is...a scientist."

"They created some kind of 'Crow's Mouth Association' to spread all kinds of sensational rumors, and they said it's not an extremist organization? Even you should be careful, you might have been targeted by the police." Ru Hongshang stood up, "You should Tell yourself your fate.”

"Wait a minute, I'd like to pass on a message for you and tell you more about the police."

A precisely controlled smile appeared on Ru Hongshang's face, "That's right. If you help me, I will help you. With my connections, it's just a matter of words to rescue Lu Linbei from King Zhao."
