Chapter 213: The Heroes Reunite
Hometown carries our purest memories, perhaps it is a familiar old street, maybe it is a food that we never get tired of eating, maybe it is a unique tone of voice, or maybe it is just a habit and a dependence. The sense of security given by hometown is indescribable, and for those who are adrift, hometown is our home. In fact, all cities are similar, with bright lights, high-rise buildings, busy office workers and leisurely morning exercisers, but it is in these seemingly ordinary elements that hometown can always give us spiritual comfort.
It feels so good to be home! Kaede looked at City A, which was close at hand, and couldn't wait to jump off the bus, breathing in the dry air that belonged to City A, and enjoying the warm atmosphere that belonged to City A. That's right, this is his home, there are so many memories here, there are friends, there are brothers, there are them and them.
Urban construction closely follows the pace of economic development, and in two years, City A has almost changed, and Feng can only distinguish the landmarks from the vague impression, the old house has disappeared, but the people in the old house are still there; The long-lost snack bar is gone, but they are still on the newly opened snack street; The road that was blocked when it rained can now be used as an airstrip; The long-criticized unfinished projects have also come in handy, and cities can indeed make life better.
Feng simply took a taxi around the old city, and the driver was an old man in his fifties, and asked the young man in the car with a smile, "I haven't been back for a while." "Two years of wandering can't hide Kaede's native voice, not to mention that the joy and satisfaction in Kaede's eyes can't be hidden, that is the happiness that only a wanderer who goes home can have.
"It's been more than two years, and the city is changing so fast. When I left, it was still a demolition site. Feng looked out the window at the schools, hospitals, and shops and couldn't help but sigh that he and Mr. Liang had led a large demolition project, and now it seems that this may not be a bad thing.
"I've heard that this is the result of a game between two big guys." The old driver also seems to have heard some rumors, Dai Junchou and Mr. Liang, they wrote a legend belonging to City A.
"Haha, big shot? Big shots sometimes do some practical things. Kaede laughed at herself, her eyes swept over the rows of shops, and finally stopped. Excuse me to stop the car, master. ”
Maybe many people are no strangers to this place, maybe they still live here in the old neighborhood. But Kaede is too familiar with this place, there are his dreams here, there are his memories, there used to be a bookstore here, Kaede's "Respect for Paper". Mr. Liang demolished the signboard of Dai Jun Chip, and Dai Jun Chip overthrew Mr. Liang's dynasty. Here he and Lin have good memories, he fought with Ryoko, he drank tea with the fourth master, and he and Li guarded the house. Maple rubbed the familiar land inch by inch, and measured the old site of "respecting the word paper" step by step.
This should be it, yes. As soon as Kaede looked up, it was as if he saw a familiar signboard again. Respecting the words and paper is the eternal pain in Feng's heart, and its disappearance is the lack of dreams. So the pretty female boss in the dessert shop saw the vicissitudes of life Feng holding a cup of milk tea, and looked at the ground in a daze, "Do you have something on your mind?" "There wasn't much business in the early morning, so the lady who had a dessert came over with a mousse cake and accosted Kaede. He could see that this person with a vicissitudes of life was actually not old, and what was hidden under the years was a delicate and bright face.
"Oh, nothing, there used to be a bookstore here." Kaede smiled and nodded at the boss, the taste of the milk tea was good, and the cake was also very refreshing.
"You're talking about the family that cherishes the paper, my sister was still here when she was in school." The landlady recalls thoughtfully, "She always said that the boss there was very kind and liked to go there to read." ”
That's right, there is always a group of children reading books in the paper, and Feng didn't send these reluctant children out one by one until he got off work, "Come back tomorrow, Mom and Dad are not happy when they come home late." "He likes children and the smell of youth.
“…… I heard that the bookstore moved to the edge of Bailu Academy, but I haven't been there yet. The female boss's words stunned Kaede, White Deer Academy? Isn't that the neighborhood where you live? Who opened another "Cherish Word Paper"?
"Thank you for the milk tea and cake." Maple grass said goodbye to the boss and went straight to the familiar direction.
The same signboard, the same style, the same full of children's laughter, Feng anxiously walked into the door of the bookstore and saw the busy Tang Mengli.
"Grab your book and see you next time." Tang Mengli smiled and said goodbye to the children.
Tang Meng's gaze inadvertently fell on the middle-aged man who had just entered the door, his mouth opened a little wider, and finally his stunned expression stopped on his face, "You...... Is that you? Maple? "Feng's temperament has indeed changed a lot, coupled with the beard that has not been shaved for a long time, Tang Mengli can't confirm it for a while.
"Who else but me?" Kaede smiled helplessly, "You opened this bookstore?" I haven't seen her for two years, and my amazing sister has also become old, and the faint crow's feet at the corners of her eyes still reveal her exhaustion.
"I heard them say that you used to have a bookstore, but it was demolished, and I was fine at home anyway, so I restored it, how about it? It's okay to look at, I'm the new boss. Tang Mengli looked at Feng, who he hadn't seen for two years, and couldn't help but be a little excited and a little aggrieved, "At that time, I didn't say goodbye, and it was two years to leave." Where have you been? "I went to Changbai Mountain to meet a friend." Kaede said as he walked around the rows of bookshelves, "There is still a row of benches missing here, I remember it was a wrought iron chair back then. Kaede said, pointing to the corner.
"I've gone to someone to order it, and it's hard to find a chair like that. Look, your regular customers are still around, but they're not kids anymore. Tang Mengli looked at the customers who were reading books, and Feng could vaguely remember what they looked like when they were students. The days go by really fast, all the junior high school students and high school students have now become adults, the girls have a mature atmosphere, the boys have become tall and resolute, they are the new generation "Hurry up and go home and hang a beard, we have to celebrate in the evening." Tang Mengli picked up the phone to himself, "Hey, what's the matter?" "When I heard it, it was the lazy voice of the Kui wood wolf.
"The dead ghost is back, let's get together at home in the evening?" Tang Mengli's voice was full of joy, and Feng was a little sad when he looked at it with a smile on his face.
