About ten years ago, Zhou Lu lived in this city for a while, that is, when he was only eleven years old, that is, after he left the city when he rescued Mo Yan, who was only 5 years old, he finally came to this city and his stomach was really hungry, so he decided to fill his stomach by stealing.

When night fell, his target was a pastry shop, which was a very common pastry shop everywhere in the neighborhood, and it took a lot of effort to sneak in after the pastry shop closed, and after entering the pastry shop, he knew that the owner of the pastry shop lived in a room on the second floor, so he decided to carefully check the kitchen to see if there were any leftovers from today's cakes.

It's a pity that Zhou Lu was accidentally discovered by the female shopkeeper, and thought that the other party would call the police to arrest him, but the female shopkeeper did something unexpected to Zhou Lu, she didn't call the police immediately, but came to the kitchen to take out the food that seemed to be specially made for Zhou Lu to eat.

"I've noticed you since noon, you've been hiding far away and observing my shop, so I wondered if you were hungry and wanted to eat, but I didn't expect to be guessed by me in the end, but I didn't expect you to sneak in at night." With his right hand propped up on his cheek and a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, the female shopkeeper's calm tone silenced Zhou Lu.

The female manager of the pastry shop in front of her, who smiled and invited Zhou Lu to dinner, has thin crow's feet near the corners of her eyes because of her age, but even if she is old, she still has not lost her beautiful demeanor when she was young, and her skin does not know how to maintain it, and it still shows the whiteness of her youth, in short, this female shopkeeper is a mature but beautiful woman.

"I'm the manager of this small pastry shop, and sometimes I have a feeling of 'alone or meaningless', and my husband left me before I had children. Are you interested...... Be my child with me. "If it weren't for the hope in the eyes of the woman in front of him and the impurity of the eyes, Zhou Lu really wanted to open his mouth and scold 'neurotic!' , but from this woman's eyes, he could see that the other party really wanted to adopt him.

Silently eating the dinner given by the other party, Zhou Lu's mouth squirmed and he nodded after a while, he was really tired. He also wanted to live a peaceful life, so from that day on, a little boy moved in to the pastry shop.

Obviously, she is just the proprietress of an ordinary pastry shop, but this proprietress not only taught Zhou Lu to make zuò pastries, but also taught him the use of many musical instruments, piano, violin, guitar, flute...... The proprietress taught Zhou Lu how to use these instruments, and she also taught him a lot of foreign languages.

With Zhou Lu also living in this pastry shop, the pastries made by the proprietress made zuò for some reason made many customers feel that the taste was better than before, and the expression on the face of the proprietress when making zuò pastries was flat, and the whole person's actions were as stiff as a machine qì person. But since Zhou Lu moved in, a smile began to gradually appear on her face, perhaps her own mood affected the taste of the pastries.

But there are advantages and disadvantages, I don't know when negative words about the boss lady began to spread nearby, and the people living around began to suspect the origin of Zhou Lu, and even often pointed fingers at the figure of the boss lady behind his back, some people thought that Zhou Lu was the illegitimate child of the boss lady, or that the boss lady used to do that kind of dirty business, so after three months...... Zhou Lu left a note and quietly left the city alone.

Right now. Zhou Lu returned to the city again, and he found the façade of the pastry shop. After ten years, this pastry shop will naturally change owners or change to other industries to continue, but after a period of investigation, Zhou Lu knows something that is difficult for him to accept.

According to the news he got from others, Zhou Lu took a car to a large cemetery called "Rose Cemetery" in the suburbs, and following the information he got from the security guard, Zhou Lu came to the grave of No. 293, looking at the familiar name on the white tombstone. Zhou Lu was silent, squatted down and put the lilies he had bought before coming in front of the tombstone.

"It's only been ten years since we see each other, and I can't imagine that we will be in such a form after we meet again...... Sister Wu, long time no see. "The pastry shop proprietress who adopted Zhou Lu back then seems to be surnamed Wu, but it doesn't matter what her full name is, because she has fallen into a deep sleep forever.

"Say it's been a long time...... "I said I hadn't seen you for a long time," he muttered softly. Zhou Lu bent up on one knee and squatted down to look at the white tombstone engraved with words in front of him, and said softly like self-deprecation: "I am the only one who is asking and answering myself in the current situation, I can't imagine that in less than a year after I left, you and I have actually lived in two different worlds." ”

In the five days since he came to this city, in addition to finding a cheap hotel to live in, Zhou Lu also investigated the cause of Sister Wu's death by the way.

Ma Qiang, the leader of the city's largest underground forces, fell in love with Sister Wu and wanted her to be his underground lover, but fortunately, Ma Qiang was not bad, although he was ruthless when dealing with the enemies of other forces, but he was generous and gentle in the face of his own people, and it stands to reason that Sister Wu can definitely enjoy a money life that he did not have in the past.

But Ma Qiang's original wife hated her man for going out to find a woman, so she called a few people to Sister Wu's house one night, broke her legs with sticks, and disfigured her face with sulfuric acid.

knew that it was Ma Qiang's wife who hired someone to commit the murder, but the police were helpless without evidence and no evidence

"Sister Wu...... In the past, when the bear children in the neighborhood often called you a 'mean woman', I would fight with them, but every time you had to stop me, and often told me that the boys' fists were waved to protect the girls, so now I have decided, this time I will definitely avenge you. ”

For Zhou Lu, the phrase 'when is the time for retribution' is used to pretend to be a saint, if this group of saints is killed in the case of their own family, Zhou Lu does not believe that the other party can still say this righteously, Zhou Lu of course he does not think of himself as a saint.

So before Zhou Lu left the city to continue his search for the Holy Son Andy, Ma Qiang and his wife ...... It is absolutely impossible for Zhou Lu to let these two people continue to live. (To be continued......)
