Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded.
"Then take your time, little brother, I'm going to have breakfast too."
With that said, the middle-aged man stood up, left the dining table with a smile, and walked towards the kitchen.
……
"Hey, with the things I saved before, the girls should be able to spend the past two weeks' living expenses..."
"Enough is enough, but the family has no money..."
"Hey, it's not that there is no rice at home, there is also food in the field, and you can live comfortably, but the girl spends money on everything outside, so let's give it to her quickly..."
"That's fine... I'll get you a bowl of noodles, and you'll have to work later, so it's okay if you don't eat something in the morning."
Listening to the low voice of communication coming from the kitchen behind him, Lian Ge smiled slightly and continued eating the dumplings in the bowl.
……
After a breakfast, Lian Ge didn't stay any longer, and after saying hello to the family, he stepped out of the house.
Along the village road, continuing upwards, Lian Ge left the village where he had spent the night, and set foot on the winding road around the hills and extending out of the mountains again.
The morning sun shines on the dense branches and leaves in the mountains and forests, transpiring the dew left over from last night.
Looking at the scenery of the mountains and forests, Lian Ge walked along the winding road without haste.
……
With the breeze in the forest blowing from time to time, one person and one mouse gradually drifted away along the winding mountain road, and the mountains gradually approached and then gradually moved away.
Few pedestrians passed by from time to time, or old people carrying baskets on their backs, or middle-aged people carrying hoes and preparing to go to the terraced fields.
As one mountain after another was passed by, the vision in front of him gradually became wider, the road was no longer winding, and the number of pedestrians and vehicles passing by gradually increased.
……
Finally, after spending three or four hours, Lian Ge stepped out of the forest, and the bustling and bustling city appeared not far in front of him.
The buildings beside the road are denser and taller, and the vehicles entering and leaving the city on the road are constantly passing by.
On the side of the road, looking at the bustling and noisy city scene, Lian Ge paused slightly,
I glanced at the banner "Welcome to Shanggu" pulled up on the only road leading to the bustling urban area
Withdrawing his gaze, he glanced at the little white mouse squatting on his shoulders, Lian Ge moved away again, and walked straight towards the urban area.
……
Then, the prosperity and hustle and bustle gradually approached, and the rolling mountains and forests behind him gradually moved away.
"...Brother, do you want to take a car?"
"Apple costs ten yuan and three catties..."
At the intersection into the urban area, some vehicles gathered to greet passengers, and some mobile vendors also parked by the side of the road, hawking.
Facing the noisy voice, Lian Ge stepped into Shanggu City.
Looking at the pedestrians in the urban area, or the hurried pedestrians, or the old people walking in the shade of the roadside trees, Lian Ge looked back,
"Let's go."
With that said, Lian Ge moved his footsteps away again, chose a direction at random, and walked forward along the street without haste.
"...Hey, it's good for you to bring a daughter. It's not like me. I brought my son. When I pay off the mortgage myself, I have to save him a down payment."
"...Mom, it's okay, what can I do... just miss you, give you a call... the money is enough, the salary is enough for me, you don't need to call me... well, I have The matter will be hung up first."
"...It was okay when I was young, but now that I am getting older, I am afraid that I will receive calls from my parents at night... Hey, who can say otherwise."
Following this, the voices of passers-by from all around came from time to time with the gusts of breeze, or parents with children walking, or wearing some wrinkled suits, after finishing the call, they were stunned for a moment Afterwards, the young man who hurriedly walked away quickly.
As Lian Ge keeps moving forward,
All kinds of beings, happy or sad, passed by Lian Ge's side just like the bustling city.
Chapter 192
"...Sir, what do you think you want?"
Beside a tree-shaded street, Lian Ge stopped in front of a stall again,
"Let's have donkey meat on fire." Lian Ge glanced at the booth through the glass cabinet and said with a smile.
"Okay, just wait a moment."
The vendor behind the booth responded, and cut small pieces from the steaming donkey meat, put them on the chopping board full of knife marks, first sliced the donkey meat, then chopped it, and picked up a round fire from the side to burn it. , cut a slit vertically from the side, stuffed the donkey meat in,
"Here you are, your donkey meat fire." Putting the donkey meat fire into a bag, the vendor handed it to Lian Ge.
After receiving it and paying the money, Lian Ge turned around and continued walking slowly along the tree-lined street.
"Squeak..."
The little white mouse squatting on Lian Ge's shoulder looked at the donkey meat on Lian Ge's body, stood up with its forelimbs, and lightly touched Lian Ge's neck.
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge smiled slightly, tore off a piece of pie crust from the donkey meat fire and handed it to the little white mouse.
"Squeak..."
Holding the oil-stained cake with its forelimbs, the little white mouse turned its head, looked at the fire in Lian Ge, and then looked at the cake he was holding, the little white mouse froze for a moment, then looked at Lian Ge, Called twice.
Lian Ge glanced at the little white mouse, couldn't help but smile again, took some meat from the donkey meat and handed it to the little white mouse.
"Squeak, squeak..."
One man and one mouse walked unhurriedly while eating donkey meat.
……
Compared with the bustling and lively streets before, Lian Ge is now by the river, with some shops on one side and some luxuriant trees standing in front of the shops, and a wider river on the other side.
From time to time, the wind with water vapor blows across the water, disturbing the sparkling waves and the branches and leaves of trees beside the riverside streets.
"...What's the matter? Go and see."
"Why are there so many people around that building?"
The tranquility of the riverside was broken, and it became a bit noisy and noisy. Many passers-by were talking and rushing towards that place at a faster pace.
Turning his gaze, Lian Ge looked there.
It is the intersection of the river leading to other areas, and it is also the bridge head connecting the bridges on both sides of the river.
On the side of the road at the end of the bridge, stands a tall building about a dozen stories high. Judging from the light sign on the top of the building, it seems to be a hotel.
At this moment, a large number of people are gathering downstairs of the hotel, blocking the road along the way.
Pausing his eyes, Lian Ge moved his steps away again, and walked towards that place without haste.
……
Walking to the intersection, the downstairs of this hotel is full of noisy and noisy voices like a crowd.
Most of the people gathered looked up and looked at the roof of the hotel. Many people took out their mobile phones, or used them as telescopes, or recorded images,
"……what happened."
"Someone jumped off the building. It's on the roof of the hotel. Did you see that? It's next to the light sign with the word 'wine'. It's a young girl in red."
"You are so young, why can't you think about it so much?"
"I heard that she was dumped by her boyfriend."
"Why was she dumped by her boyfriend? I heard that she was raped and got pregnant."
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's so far away that you can't see your face clearly. How did you hear that?"
In the crowd, discussions from all around followed the wind from time to time in Lian Ge's ears,
Listening to the noisy voice, Lian Ge glanced around the crowd,
Some people looked worried, while others were excited. The itinerant vendors at the intersection not far away saw that there were many people gathered here, and they also walked over with their stalls.
For a time,
Discussions, calls for friends, peddlers hawking, and police persuasion were all mixed together at the intersection.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge raised his head slightly and looked towards the roof of the hotel.
As the people around me said, beside the light sign on the roof of the hotel, a woman in a red dress was facing downstairs, holding the light sign stand next to her, leaning forward or back. , From time to time, he let go of the hand holding the light sign shelf, and his mood seemed to be extremely agitated.
After a pause, Lian Ge looked at the crowd around him again, looked away, and moved away again.
……
Going around to a quiet and deserted place, after imposing invisibility on himself, Lian Ge walked around the crowd watching at the bottom of the hotel and walked towards the hotel without haste.
After crossing the cordon, Lian Ge stepped into the interior of the hotel, walked along the stairs of the hotel, and walked towards the rooftop of the hotel without haste.
……
As it gradually approached the top floor, the voice on the roof reached Lian Ge's ears more and more clearly.
"...Don't come here, don't come here... Hahaha, are you afraid, as long as I jump from here..."
Sometimes frightened, sometimes excited, the female voice sounded a little crazy.
"Sihan, what are you doing, come here quickly..." A male voice seemed a little panicked, and kept persuading,
"Miss Wu, if you have anything to tell us, we will help you get justice."
"Justice... Haha, we are all going to die! We are all going to die!"
……
Facing the crazy voice, Lian Ge stepped onto the roof through the open roof door.
On the rooftop, many policemen had already gathered. Among them, a middle-aged policewoman in plain clothes was persuading the young woman who was about to jump off the building. The rest of the firefighters were scattered on the rooftop, staring at the woman.
The young woman who was about to jump faced the crowd of policemen, standing on the concrete fence at the edge of the roof, holding the steel frame of the light sign next to her, looking extremely excited. Every time she moved, the steel frame of the light sign could not help but feel overwhelmed. creaking, crumbling,
"...Don't come here, don't come here..." The young woman in the red dress became excited again,
"We didn't move, we didn't come over, don't get excited, don't get excited..." The middle-aged female policeman put her hand where the young woman could see, and comforted,
But the young woman ignored the policewoman's voice, just looked at an empty space and screamed in horror,
"...Don't come here! Don't come here! Don't kill me!"
"Xu Wan, you killed Yuan Bin, why are you still unwilling to let me go, he made me do it, he made me do it...why, why are you still pestering me...don't come here , don’t come here! If you come here again, I’ll jump off!”
"Have you seen my red clothes, as long as I jump off, I'm a ghost, and I can kill you... Hahaha, we're all going to die!"
"If you come here again, I'll jump!"
"Hahaha...you are scared, you are scared!"
"...Please, let me go...hahaha, I'm going to die!"
The young woman's face looked ferocious, a little crazy.
"...Go and find out about Xu Wan and Yuan Bin."
Beside, a policeman whispered to another policeman,
"Also, is the inflatable mattress downstairs ready?"
"It's coming soon, it will be fully inflated in a little more time, but... the floor is too high, and the inflatable cushion probably won't be of much use."
"Can you forcefully control her and bring her down?"
"It's very difficult. She is standing on the fence of the roof. If our people make a mistake, she will be pushed down directly."
……
Listening to the whispered communication of the policeman beside him, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze, turned his gaze, and looked in the direction that the crazy woman was looking at.
Under the eyes of the sky, that area was also empty, and there were no other figures.
And at this moment,
The woman suddenly calmed down, the ferocious and crazy expression on her face disappeared, and her expression became calm.
