Lear is gone. He came with a lot of hope and some confusion. By the time he left, his confusion had not diminished, but had increased.

Just like that Boss Zhang said. Times are changing. Many things are changing. The times are changing, and the industry needs to be upgraded. Like it or dislike it, for it or against. When the great wheel of history rolls forward, it will never change because of people's subjective will.

Lear found himself in a blind spot. In the past, when he was thinking about problems, he always put the power of the state first, because he grew up in this country and was accustomed to the central government being the biggest power holder. It has absolute dominance over the country, so when it comes to indecision, the ultimate solution is often to solve the problems that may exist in society through executive orders.

For example, the treatment of the current returnees and the Awakened Abilities. Because of the cumbersome jurisdiction, many local governments have a simple and crude approach to Awakeners and Returnees, not allowing them to use their abilities in any public place.

Because for many local governments, they really don't know whether the abilities of those awakened and returnees are good or bad, whether they can be used for production or cause damage.

Since it is not clear, the simplest and most effective way to manage it is to directly legislate to ban their use. Once used, it is directly considered a violation of the law.

After leaving the Hive, Lear traveled to other cities in the country. It is mainly some relatively remote and backward small cities and counties in the third and fourth tiers, and even in the fifth and sixth tiers.

Because as a member of a national think tank, he has to do his own research. Understand the problems that the country is suffering from so that you can come up with solutions.

And the results of the survey are not so encouraging. Because with the exception of Huaihai, or to be more precise, the Hive, the life of the Awakened and Returnees in other places is not particularly good.

He heard about a murder while traveling to Ningcheng, a small town in the north. The killer was a returnee, and the deceased was his wife after returning home.

The reason why the man wants to kill his wife is because he thinks that his wife is unfaithful to him and has other men outside.

And the reason why his wife cheated was because he disliked him and had no ability.

This returnee named Zhang Song originally traveled through a fairy world. There, he was white-haired and purple-clothed, and everyone respectfully called him Emperor.

It can be said that he lived the life of an immortal.

Later, he inexplicably returned to the earth, and his mentality was actually quite good, and he did not complain about it, and after half a year, he could be regarded as reintegrating into society with a calm mind.

And his wife, Wang Xiaona, is a girl with a little secondary two. Although I am in my 20s, I like to watch all kinds of ancient fairy romances. I always fantasize that one day, my husband will ride the colorful auspicious clouds to marry me.

Because of such fantasies, after meeting Zhang Song who returned from the world of Xianxia, he was hopelessly infatuated with him.

Because the Xianxia world that Zhang Song traveled through satisfied all Wang Xiaona's fantasies. She especially likes to hear Zhang Song tell those stories about him in the other world.

After Zhang Song returned to the earth, he did not completely lose his ability, and sometimes he would use some tricks and some little fairy methods to make Wang Xiaona happy.

In Wang Xiaona's view at that time, this is the romance she is pursuing, this is the love she is pursuing.

So after knowing and falling in love for half a year, Wang Xiaona decided to marry Zhang Song, and after returning to the earth, Zhang Song's mentality has also changed, since he can no longer continue to cultivate upward in the world of the earth and break through to a higher realm. Most of his abilities have been cut by half, so there is nothing bad about living an ordinary life.

After all, I have had enough of fighting and killing in that otherworldly Xianxia world. There is nothing wrong with living an ordinary life, my wife and children are hot on the kang, and I work hard to earn money to support my family. It's ordinary, but you can pursue warmth and happiness.

So Zhang Song and Wang Xiaona got married like this.

But the ups and downs of married life are never so simple.

Just look at the fairy tales and Disney princess animations. Whether it's Snow White or Cinderella. Their story is always about falling in love with the prince and ending abruptly the moment they enter the marriage hall.

Because that is already the happiest moment, life has reached the peak, and the next road after love reaches the peak is an irreversible and straight downhill road.

After marriage, Wang Xiaona had to face the days of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea every day. Because I got married, it was impossible to let my boyfriend Zhang Song spend money on all kinds of small gifts for him, because he had to take into account the food expenses of this month.

How to pay rent, how to pay electricity, transportation, telephone bills, groceries, etc.

In the small city of Ningcheng, Zhang Song could not find any job that could give full play to his strengths, because the management implemented here was simple and rough one-size-fits-all, and all the returnees and stranger awakeners were registered in the Special Investigation Bureau. They are not allowed to use their abilities in public, otherwise they are considered guilty of a crime.

Therefore, even if Zhang Song has the ability to return from the Xianxia world. Although it is still said that it can still fight and kill. can also control the flying sword, send couriers or something. But after a simple and crude one-size-fits-all, all his strengths don't seem to be able to be brought into play.

Zhang Song just wants to live an ordinary life, and he doesn't want to touch the brow of the law here. Because he is already married. He is responsible for the family.

So he could only find some ordinary jobs to do. The income is not high, only more than 5,000 yuan per month.

Wang Xiaona's income is also not high. Only 4000.

The combined income of the husband and wife is 9,000 yuan a month, which is not enough to buy a one-square-meter house.

So at the beginning, only half a year after the happy marriage, Wang Xiaona was driven crazy by the married life without money.

Because it's so poor. The married life was not as happy as he imagined, but was full of all kinds of contradictions.

Wang Xiaona dislikes Zhang Song and can't make money. And at this time, a rich man broke into Wang Xiaona's life.

He is nearly 15 years older than Wang Xiaona, but the middle-aged man has a successful career. I have a lot of money on hand.

He spent money on Wang Xiaona like running water. soon seduced Wang Xiaona, and it only took three months for Wang Xiaona to have a substantial relationship with him.

But there are no impermeable walls under the sky. As her husband, Zhang Song discovered the changes in Wang Xiaona.

His wife began to use very expensive cosmetics. Although Wang Xiaona has always told Zhang Song that these are all goods that she asked a friend to take out directly from the factory, the price is much cheaper than that bought outside, but the price is similar to that of domestic Pechoin.

And those expensive LV bags and the like are all fakes made in Wuxi. None of this is true.

But Zhang Song has always had doubts in his heart, so one day he quietly followed his wife Wang Xiaona, Wang Xiaona lied to Zhang Song and said that he was going to attend some female classmates' reunions, and he stayed at the female classmates at night.

But when Zhang Song was following him, he found that Wang Xiaona and a middle-aged man had entered the hotel.

This kind of thing is put on any man, I'm afraid it can't be tolerated.

So when he rushed into the hotel and found Wang Xiaona and his mistress, the two were just preparing to do something, Zhang Song saw his wife lying on the big bed in rags, and he was angry.

There weren't too many heated arguments. Didn't give the adulterer a chance to beg for mercy.

The emperor who had killed countless people in the other world had returned. The two sword qi directly ended the lives of the dog man and woman.

They don't even have a chance to resist and struggle.

After the killing, Zhang Song did not escape. Instead, he calmly called the police and chose to surrender.

In the end, the case was tried by the Ningcheng Intermediate People's Court, and Zhang Song was convicted of intentional homicide.

However, because he had a good attitude of admitting guilt and voluntarily surrendered. Coupled with his motive for killing, there was a reason. The judge did not judge it as a vicious homicide.

So in the end, Zhang Song was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

In Ningcheng Prison. Lear meets the murderer Zhang Song.

His hair, once as beautiful as silk, had been shaved. Only a bare braincase remains.

He wears a restraint around his neck that limits his abilities.

Because he has to meet a big man like Lear, he has a lot of handcuffs and shackles. When I walked into the reception room, there was a clattering sound.

When Lear saw Zhang Song for the first time, he didn't find much fierceness in the man's eyes, but saw endless vicissitudes and sadness in his eyes.
