The time to return to Jiaohe City has passed eleven o'clock, the vehicles on the street are scarce, under the rows of lights on both sides, in the summer night, there are many more people who visit the night market, more than two years after the establishment of the city, Jiaohe City is lined with high-rise buildings, the former gong ring street, has become a famous pedestrian street and night market, a night, there are a large number of small carts, stalls put out.

Blowing the cool night breeze, tasting the snacks on the roadside, and watching the people walking through the smoke is the only scenery for Xia Yi and others who came out of here.

After eating a few special snacks on the plate, returning to the car, Xia Yi wiped a little oil stain on his fingers and closed the car window: "Let's go, send your boss back first." ”

Jiang Yu next to him blushed and poked him with his hand: "I don't want to stay overnight yet." ”

Xia Yi leaned back, watching the night scene outside the car window slowly move back, and reached out to hold the woman's hand, "In the past few days since I came back, I have to sort out some, and you just happened to go back to accompany your uncle and aunt." ”

"I know, I won't stick to you like kraft candy, I'm an independent woman in the new era, hum!"

"You've learned to be spoiled, huh?!"

"There is no ......"

whispered love words all the way, and the fat man of the co-pilot who listened to it skimmed, lowered his head from time to time, looked at the black screen of the mobile phone in his hand, and put it away again, without saying a word.

When he arrived at the gate of the community where Jiang Yu's family lived, the chubby old man of the porter poked his head out and looked at the license plate, knowing who it was, and greeted the woman who got out of the car with a smile, who raised his hand and winked at Xia Yi in the car window.

"Brother Yi, I'll go up first. ”

"It's too late, don't make your uncle and aunt wait. ”

"Perhaps, I've gone to bed a long time ago, they know that I came out with you, and if I go missing, I'll definitely find your head....."

The two talked for a while, before they separated, Jiang Yu watched the taillights disappear around the corner of the alley, turned back to the unit building, and took out the door hole if it hadn't been inserted, there was a creak, and the security door opened with a rusty sound.

It was Xu Qiuhua who opened the door, wearing long pants and long-sleeved pajamas, tied her hair, and the scent of shower gel, the pudding stuck out her tongue at her steps, turned around and went to the shoe rack to grab slippers, put them at the door, and wagged her tail wildly.

"Auntie, you haven't slept yet?"

Jiang Yu came in to change into slippers, patted lightly on the pudding's head, and after entering the house, he found that Jiang Jiancheng had not slept either, sitting on the sofa, pressing his mobile phone, hearing his daughter's voice, and hurriedly got up: "The weather is hot and stuffy, and your aunt is reluctant to turn on the air conditioner, so she has to watch TV and stay up." ”

"You try to talk nonsense again, after playing with your mobile phone for a few days, your skills are gradually rising, don't think about climbing into my mother's bed tonight. Xu Qiuhua scolded, "It's not that you have to wait, I don't feel at ease when I say I won't see Xiao Yu come back...... I don't think you want her to come back. ”

"Who's to say it's not..... Bah ....." Jiang Jiancheng waved his hand: "Dad, that's not what you mean......."

"Is that dad really worried that I'll spend the night outside?" Jiang Yu tilted his neck and laughed: "Okay, I'm an adult, and I'm not the blind blind girl I used to be, I don't understand anything, Dad, Auntie, it's not early, hurry up and go to sleep, I'm going back to work at the airport in two days, I took such a long vacation, I don't know if An Li will complain about me." ”

"Then you go to sleep, and I'll sit with your dad for a while. ”

When Xu Qiuhua sent Xiao Yu away, Jiang Jiancheng turned his gaze with a confused expression, "Xiao Yu is back, why are you still sitting here?"

"Pack up your ....."

The woman rolled up her cuffs, lifted her foot abruptly, and took off her slippers, "Make it clear!!" and threw it over her husband's face......

Listening to the movement of ping-pong outside, Xiao Yu had long been accustomed to it, took out her pajamas, went to the bathroom, looked at the ring with a pendant on her neck reflected in the mirror, and remembered her boldness that night in the United States.

"I'm already his man......"

With these words, a touch of crimson stained his cheeks from his neck.

"I don't know what Brother Yi is doing now, whether he has slept or not. ”

Outside the skylight of the bathroom, the stars paved the Milky Way, and on the other side of the city, the convoy back to the Wanfu community drove into the garage.

Xia Yichao said hello to the fat man who was sorting out the vegetables and fruits brought back from his hometown, returned to the living room, changed into the slippers handed by Sanhua Hemei, walked up to the second floor, pushed open the bedroom door, and in the light, the slender back sat behind the desk in front of the window, holding a lady's cigarette between her slender fingers.

With green smoke, Zhou Jin got up and hugged Xia Yi who came in, "Boss, why don't you stay one more night when you go home?"

"Come back and listen to your debriefing. Xia Yi smiled, stretched out her arms, Ren Yu took off her coat, and said with a smile: "How are you doing?"

Then he lit a cigarette and sat down where Zhou Jin had sat before, looking through some of the company's affairs and capital reports in his absence.

The woman in the suit over there walked back: "The body of the supernatural, not to mention the third-order superability, this injury has not healed for half a month, then it is really unqualified." ”

Sitting on the armrest of the chair next to Xia Yi, it was very close, and she watched the man flip through the papers: "During your absence, the company is under my care, there is no big problem, and I often show it to the fat man, although he doesn't understand this aspect of things, but the money is very tight." ”

"He really doesn't understand the company's operation, but when it comes to money, Dezhu is more careful than anyone else. ”

Xia Yi did not deny Zhou Jin's words, and after flipping through the company's reports above, when he put them aside, he found that there was a cover without any handwriting underneath.

"What is this?" Xia Yi frowned, turning the first page, his brows furrowed even tighter, "Redstone Neutralizer?"

The woman's body next to her tightened a little, Zhou Jin pulled the bangs in front of her forehead, took a puff of the cigarette with her scarlet fingertips, her red lips opened slightly, and the smoke drifted out with the words.

"Boss, have you forgotten that before you went to the United States, you asked Wells to start the research project? For more than a year, he has been busy experimenting day and night, and part of the company's profits have been invested, and he has also bought cheap materials under the relationship of the Commuter Bureau.......

Zhou Jin talked about redstone research, in the progress of more than a year, that Wells is the biggest hero, the initial research was a little inhumane, after Xia Yi disappeared to the other world, he joined Zhou Jin together, on the batch of redstone infected people who were rescued, conducted some experiments.

For this matter, Magneto Lao Li was very angry, since leaving the commuter bureau, there has always been a knot for unfair treatment, if it weren't for the good words on both sides of the electric python, almost fell out for this matter, and finally Magneto moved out directly, returned to the previous street, opened a video game hall, and passed the rest of the time.

However, the development of redstone stifling neutralizer has always been Xia Yi's heart disease, and it is also the hope of those redstone infected people who have been rescued and are eager to return to society, and many people are even willing to become the target of clinical trials.

Others turn a blind eye and stop interfering and interfering too much.

It wasn't until Xia Yi came back that Zhou Jin told the truth about the matter.

“....... The first batch of medicines has come out, and a few bottles have been sent to the research department of the Commuter Bureau, boss! In this way, the infected red stones in our bodies can be cleared out quickly, and I can become a normal woman...... Normal woman ......"

Xia Yi looked at the dense content on the report, and listened to Zhou Jin repeat the sentence: "Normal woman." After a moment's hesitation, a smile squeezed out of the corner of his mouth: "Well, it's a happy thing, it's not early, you rest first, I want to take care of this matter, take the time to call the Magnetic King, everyone is a companion, there can be no barriers." ”

"Well, I'll go back to my room first, and the boss can call me at any time if I need it. ”

Zhou Jin saw that he looked at the man's gentle smile, put his face on it and gave him an intimacy, so he got up and left the room, and the moment he heard the door close gently, the smile on Xia Yi's face gradually cooled.

I become expressionless.

Pinching the report on the redstone neutralizer in his hand, he had a tangled emotion in his heart, "What a difficult multiple-choice question......

At night, the insects chirped in the garden outside, put down the report and got up, pushed open the balcony door, stood outside, and watched the fat man and Ma Bang sitting there playing games with a handheld computer below;

Xia Yi stood in front of the window and listened to the noisy noise below, gently closed his eyes, his heart became irritable, and in the suppressed emotions, the hands behind him were clenched into fists, making a 'click' sound,

In my head, there are some voices echoing.

"I got married first, I'm still waiting to hold my grandson, if you are a martyr, I don't care about you. The father stood at the entrance of the village, with a look of urging on his serious face.

At night at a certain time, Zhou Jin, who met for the first time, sat in the co-pilot, shrunk his legs, smoked a cigarette, and looked at the rain curtain outside, with loneliness on his face.

"I was covered in poison, in my blood, in my sweat, in my saliva...... Believe it or not, my boyfriend was poisoned by me. ”

"I really want to be a normal woman......"

The voice swirled and dispersed, and Chen Yaozu's words then came again.

"...... Xia Yi, if you continue like this, the redstone in your body will spread at an accelerated pace, and when the time comes, you will become a humanoid redstone, and you will die, and if you pass it on to the next generation...... Unknown changes may occur. ”

"Unknown Change ......"

Looking at the glittering Milky Way in the sky, Xia Yi muttered in a voice that he could only hear, "But I still have nuclear elements in my body...... Now that the redstone is cleared, what happens to the nuclear element?"

He tilted his head to look at the report on the table: "And...... The strength of my body is not easy to come by......"

Muttered, walked to the desk and held the paper in his hand, and in the rustling sound, it was crumpled into a ball.

"You can't just leave it at that. ”
