Following Gong Chen, Yu Siqi, who walked through the corridor, came to an altar. Four stone tablets inscribed with Rami Siani characters were floating in mid-air, and in the middle of them were holding a sphere very similar to the white ball that Xie Baozhen had, where it was spinning at a very slow speed.

To the left of the altar is a very large parking lot, densely packed with at least hundreds of private cars of all kinds. Yu Siqi also inadvertently seemed to see someone trying to drill the F1 car into a vacant parking space, but the red van in front of him grabbed the spot, and the two were arguing fiercely there.

On the right side of the altar is a somewhat dilapidated newsstand, where several stacks of newspapers more than one meter high are stacked at the door, and the only remaining window is being propped up in a large oil pot, and an elderly man is holding a pair of chopsticks more than one meter long and frying fritters on the side of the pot. Not far from the oil pot, there was a long line of about a dozen people, some of them yawning and playing with their phones down, others looking impatient.

"Do you eat fritters?" Gong Chen tilted his head and asked.

"No, I ate it in the morning." Yu Siqi looked at such an old team, and felt that it was not necessarily appropriate to join in the excitement now, so he hurriedly refused.

But Gong Chen seemed to have a deep obsession with fritters, he dragged Yu Siqi into the team, and accidentally touched the shoulder bag of the person in front of him, which attracted the person to look back.

"It's very heavy in the bag, Tang Jian," Gong Chen gently slapped the man's back and said, "I have reaped a lot of benefits." ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Tang Jian said, lifting the shoulder strap of his satchel, "It's just some frozen soil, let me take it back for testing to see if there are any suspicious ingredients in it." ”

"Oh... It turned out to be mud. Gong Chen instantly lost interest and said, "I thought it was like the biting cup last time, by the way, how did you solve it later?" ”

"I called the people from the Accident Elimination Department to solve it, and they took the cup and melted it down, made it into a keychain and distributed it to everyone in the department." Tang Jian took the fritters handed by the old man, said thank you and left.

When it was Yu Siqi's turn, the old man who fried fried fritters hesitated for a moment, and then took the newspaper and wrapped two fritters and stuffed them into Yu Siqi's hands. Gong Chen said in the back: "Add two more, and I will eat it too!" ”

"You haven't paid off the credit you owed last year, don't give it!" The old man didn't raise his head and said, "Next." ”

"Hey, I said Lao Ai. You can't be so ruthless, but your granddaughter Erin and I are in the same class. Gong Chen pressed the person behind him who wanted to step forward to receive the fritters, and said, "By the way, why didn't you see your baby granddaughter today!" ”

"It's just the first grade of elementary school," Lao Ai grabbed two freshly fried fritters and roughly stuffed them into the arms of Yu Siqi, who was in a daze, and said, "She asked for leave today to watch a movie with her boyfriend, okay, you can go quickly... You broom star. ”

"What?" Gong Chen pulled away from Yu Siqi and said, "Did she have a boyfriend again?" How many are these? ”

"It's none of your business," Lao Ai tapped the side of the pot with chopsticks and said, "You're already married, don't you want her to get married?" ”

"What are you talking about, I'm a pro-plum sweetheart with her, and I have no guesses... Can she not let me see the object she is looking for, and make a reference or something? Gong Chen picked up a fritter and ate it with relish and said, "After so many years, your fritters are still chewy, and there is no shortage of laundry detergent." ”

"Get out of here!" Lao Ai excitedly accidentally dropped the fritters that he was about to hand to others, and Yu Siqi noticed that some people in line behind him also began to stare at them with hostile eyes, so he quickly took Gong Chen away from there.

"What's the laundry detergent?" Yu Siqi looked at Gong Chen, who was smirking alone, and asked.

"Well, when I was a child, I went to their house to play, and I asked Erin what your grandfather's fritters were made of, and she said it was laundry detergent." Gong Chen struggled to control his facial muscles and said: "It's funny, right, in fact, I have a very good relationship with Erin and his family, when I was a child, my mother always said that if you get married in the future, you will definitely marry Erin." ”

"But you're marrying Xiaofang now," Ms. Yu said.

"yes, it can't be helped." Gong Chen said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "People can change, although Erin is also very beautiful, but I... I like Xiaofang more. ”

"I'm sorry for the sadness that reminded you." Yu Siqi took a bite of the fritters in his hand, and a crispy feeling of oily but not greasy emanated in his mouth, which was really good.

"What are you talking about, who is with whom?" Gong Chen pointed to a row of windows on his right and said, "Let's go there and get a certificate for you, otherwise it will be inconvenient to travel in the future." ”

They walked towards the window that Gong Chen pointed to, this side was not like the previous newsstand, more than half of the seven or eight windows were hung with signs that were temporarily closed, and only a few three or two were still open. From the outside, the window style here really looks like a bank's reception window, but there are no people.

found a nearby window that was still open, Gong Chen stepped forward and said, "Wake up, you big slacker, you sleep during the day, and become a thief at night?" ”

"Who's messing around? Oh... It's you, boy! A middle-aged man poked his head out of the dark window to look at the two of them and said, "Has your work card been dropped again, Gong Chen?" ”

"That's impossible," Gong Chen pushed Yu Siqi forward and said, "This is my buddy, I brought him to apply for a certificate on the first day of work today." ”

"What's your name, wait... You're not from the explosion before—" the man said slowly, his gaze starting to become a little unpredictable.

"Hurry up, I've got a bunch of reports to write!" Gong Chen impatiently patted the sign on the window and said, "You're wasting everyone's time." ”

"Hurry up the yarn," the man fumbled on the table for a long time, picked up a blank piece of paper and a pen and handed it to Yu Siqi and said: "Sign on the paper, you can do anything, if you don't want to say your real name... There is no problem with a pseudonym. ”

After Yu Siqi took the pen and paper, he looked at Gong Chen on the side, who was whistling at a few beautiful women who walked by with his back to him, causing bursts of laughter from passers-by. So he decided to do as they were told, and lay the paper on the table of the window and write his name.

When the man took back the pen and paper, he shook his head slightly and said, "You should practice your handwriting, this handwriting level is not even as good as my six-year-old son." ”

"I haven't written much by hand in a long time," Yu Siqi explained awkwardly.

"It's all about computers and digital gadgets, right?" The man took out a very large seal from his pocket, pressed it on the white paper, and said: "The times are changing too fast, and now they are all talking about connecting the matter of issuing certificates to the Internet in the future, and it is estimated that I will have to go back to retire at that time." ”

"Don't you know how to use a computer?" Yu Siqi asked.

"Me? Of course not, I hate all digital gadgets. The man looked at the stamped white paper, pulled out a lighter and lit it.

Tiny flames burned the entire sheet of white paper, leaving only a small handful of black ash in front of them. Yu Siqi didn't understand why the person in front of him wanted to burn the paper that had just been signed and stamped, but the man made a more exaggerated move, he blew on the small black ash, the dust drifted in the air for a while, and then a small boxy card fell to the table.

The man picked up the small card and glanced at it, then threw it to Yu Siqi, who was frightened, and said: "Keep your identity certificate properly, don't follow the daredevils next to you, come here to reissue the certificate four times a year." ”

"Maybe it's time for me to do it for the fifth time," Gong Chen picked up something like the card Yu Siqi got from his pocket and threw it away.

"Goodbye," the man closed the window completely from the inside after flipping the working sign hanging on the wall into a pause.

"This Qi Zhongshi is still so old-fashioned," Gong Chen clapped his hands and said, "Okay, now that the proof is there, it's time to take you around elsewhere." ”

"Didn't you say you were going to write a report?" Yu Siqi looked at the small card in his hand, there was only a very strange text on it, this text was obviously not in Lamericiani, but a bit like an oracle bone inscription.

"Then are you going to go to work on your own, I don't mind." Gong Chen said with a wicked smile.

"No, you better take me." Yu Siqi put the card in his pocket and said, "I have a hunch that if no one leads the way, I may wrap myself around this place." ”
