Chapter 23: Dating
Standing on the balcony, Lin Ling looked worriedly at the cloudy sky overhead, this is going to rain......
He turned around and crouched down next to the scanner he had worked all night on, sorting out the pile of Zheng Guofan's notebooks that he had stumbled upon.
The pile of notebooks stuffed into the scanner had all been spit out, and the materials related to Martian breeding and cultivation were all swept into the computer.
Lin Ling's family history, although he did not go to college, but since he was a child, he was still cultivated as the successor of the Mars explorer family, and he has been involved in Mars exploration, breeding, mining and construction, etc., and it is easy to distinguish which information is useful and which is not useful for his parents who run farms far away on Mars.
Occasionally, Lin's father and mother, who were far away on Mars, would also ask him to buy some professional books to scan and mail to Mars.
Lin Ling carefully packed the selected materials and sent them out in an email that would be sent to his parents every day, and noted the origin of the materials, hoping that Zheng Guofan's theory would have some reference value for his parents.
Then, he put Zheng Guofan's notebook behind him for the time being, and rushed into the bathroom to wash up.
It wasn't until the moment he went offline that Lin Ling remembered that the place he had with Li Linda was a place that young lovers often frequented. He looked in the mirror, and the person in the mirror had an ordinary look, an ordinary figure, everything looked ordinary, just like ordinary people, and the only feature was probably the eyes.
Long-term drug treatment has caused the vitreous of his eyeball to be cloudy and dull, and at a cursory glance, it is no different from rolling through a glass ball in the dust, and only by looking closely can you find the deep light hidden in the depths.
Such a person should not be considered Li Linda's boyfriend, right?
Lin Ling smiled self-deprecatingly, with his physical condition, even if he wanted to do something he liked, he would probably need to take a passive position. He washed his face with cold water, walked out of the bathroom, looked at the messy room, sighed, and began the housework that he had to do every day.
At half past ten, Lin Ling carried an umbrella, went out on time, and took a shuttle bus every 15 minutes to the commercial street in the city center.
Halfway through, his phone rang.
Lin Ling opened it and found that it was an unfamiliar mobile phone number. He was silent for a few seconds, pressed the call button, and said in a steady tone, "I'm Lin Ling." ”
"Your application form is in my possession." Li Linda's voice rang on the other side of the phone, and she said a little proudly, "Should you thank me?" ”
"Thank you."
Hearing that Li Linda got his application form, Lin Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and now he really had nothing to do with the Hammer of Doom. Naturally, the Dark Council's pawns ambushed inside the Hammer of Doom can no longer view their coordinates through administrator privileges, let alone find their true information through internal connections.
He said half-truthfully, "Do you want me to give you a silver-quality piece of equipment as a thank you gift?" ”
"Haha, if you can get a silver-quality war spear, I'll treat you to barbecue." Li Linda let out a hearty laugh, she thought that Lin Ling was making herself happy.
Lin Ling smiled, and he said to Li Linda, "Meet and talk." ”
"Hmm."
Li Linda interrupted the communication, Lin Ling looked at the number in the mobile phone, hesitated for a while, and was still not willing to delete it, but added Li Linda's mobile phone number to the friend bar and saved it.
It didn't take long for the car to arrive.
Lin Ling got out of the car, looked at the gloomy sky, and felt that he should bring an umbrella to go out. He walked into the Pine Cone Cake House and found that the store was empty, and there were no customers.
"Sir, how many may I ask?" A waitress dressed in a vintage maid service stepped forward.
"One."
Lin Ling chose an unobtrusive corner by the window to sit down, he asked for three original doughnuts and a pot of Ceylon milk tea, two of the few western snacks that could be enjoyed, and poured himself a drink.
It wasn't long before a roaring heavy motorcycle appeared outside the Pinecone Cake House, and the biker took off his helmet, revealing a waterfall-like curly red hair.
"Is that her?" Lin Ling unexpectedly discovered that the motorcycle rider was Li Linda. He rubbed his astringent eyebrows, just to meet casually, there is no need to dress so flamboyantly, right?
Linda took off her goggles, put her helmet under her armpit and walked into the store. The black tight-fitting leather jacket she wore outlined her toned figure, and I don't know whether to describe it as bulging or firm, and the boobs held up the leather jacket high, making the leather jacket that should be a good size too tight.
"I didn't expect you to come so early." Li Linda saw Lin Ling hiding in the corner from a long distance, walked to the table in a hurry, put his helmet on the table, and shook the Ceylon milk tea in the cup to spill onto the table. She took out a piece of paper from the pocket on the inside of her leather coat and handed it to Lin Ling, "This is what you want, if there is no problem, I will leave." ”
"Why don't you sit down and eat something?"
Lin Ling took the thin piece of paper and looked at it a few times, that's right, this is the application form he handed over to Li Linda that day.
"There's a heel." Li Linda glanced out the window as she spoke, Lin Ling followed and saw a strong man with a shaved forehead driving an open-top hovercar with a wolf's head attached to it, parked at a short intersection.
The glass of the Songuo Cake House is coated with a layer, so that you can see the outside from the inside, and you can't see the inside from the outside. So Lin Ling looked at the strong man presumptuously and boldly, not worrying that the other party would find out at all.
"Wild Wolf God, the guild management personnel invited by the club from other provinces and cities have been found to have colluded with the Dark Council, and the boss has bought out his contract, you have to be careful of his revenge." Li Linda said in a low voice.
"There are a lot of unknown sewers in the city." A fine light flashed in Lin Ling's eyes, this wild wolf god should have revealed his coordinates to Uncle Ben's inner ghost, this place of the Bad Demon Lair still has development value, if Uncle Ben comes back to his senses, he will definitely notice that there is unusual.
"Let's go, see you in the game." Li Linda didn't take Lin Ling's words to heart, she picked up her helmet and walked out of the store, riding a motorcycle and roaring away.
As soon as Li Linda left, Lin Ling suddenly lost his appetite.
He folded the application into small squares, stuffed it into his pocket, and checked out.
Thundered!
As soon as I stepped out of the store, a dull thunder sounded in the sky.
Lin Ling frowned, he really wanted to go back to the store to hide from the rain, but he still had an agreement with Strawberry Nose and the others in the afternoon, if he didn't leave at this time, maybe he wouldn't be able to leave.
"Bad luck." He sighed, the rain would fall at any time, and it was obviously impractical to go to the station and wait for the shuttle bus, so he had to take a taxi home.
Sitting in the taxi, Lin Ling suddenly remembered, why did the wolf god follow Li Linda? The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Linda's number, but he couldn't get through.
Glancing out the window restlessly, he stumbled upon an open-top hovercar with a wolf's head attached to it, parked in front of an alley next to the old water plant.
The front of the convertible hovercar was recessed, as if it had been hit hard by something.
"Driver, this is it." Lin Ling threw out the car money prepared in advance to the driver, and rushed out of the car without even looking for his head. He rushed to the entrance of the alley, looked inside, only saw a trash can that had been knocked over on the ground, sighed in his heart, turned around and threw a note on the counter of the grocery store in the alley, picked up a bottle of beer and said, "Grandma, take a bottle of beer." ”
"Why is someone coming to buy beer again?" The old dazed grandmother muttered.
Lin Ling ran into the alley, heard the sound of broken bottles and the dull sound of flesh fighting, he ran over, and saw Li Linda's locomotive twisted into a pile of scrap metal and fell to the ground, and a strong man with a tuft of pigtails on the back of his head pressed Li Linda against the wall and choked her neck tightly.
"Wolf God!"
A surge of blood rushed to Lin Ling's head, and he shouted the person's name and smashed out the beer bottle desperately.
Bang!
The beer bottle exploded behind the head of the wild wolf god, and the wild wolf god turned his head, looked at Lin Ling, and fell to the ground softly.
The saved Li Linda collapsed weakly on the ground and coughed loudly.
Lin Ling breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he felt that his hands and feet were a little soft, and he couldn't use his strength. He held his knee and stretched out his hand to Li Linda, "Can you still stand up?" ”
"Thank you." Li Linda's eyes were red and she held Lin Ling's hand.
Soft as boneless.
Lin Ling didn't expect Li Linda's palm to be so soft. He pulled Li Linda up, and after letting go of her palm with some reluctance, he asked, "Is there a safe place to go?" ”
Li Linda nodded, and said in a hoarse voice: "I have a house on the outskirts of the city. ”
"That's good, don't go to work these days." Lin Ling said and kicked the unconscious Wild Wolf God, and then asked, "What are you going to do with this guy?" ”
Li Linda looked at the wild wolf god on the ground with resentment, if it weren't for Lin Ling, I'm afraid she would have died at the hands of this crazy guy. She jerked her head up and asked in a tone that even felt cold to herself, "Didn't you say that there are a lot of unknown sewers in this city?" ”
Lin Ling was stunned, and then understood what Li Linda meant. He glanced at the figure on the ground with pity.
Goodbye, poor fellow.
