Chapter 1388: The Witch Society (4)
Leaving the town, Chen Qi was a little dazed, because he didn't know what he was going to do next?
Speaking of which, all he knows about the world comes from Cali's memories, but what is in the idiot's memory?
Alcohol, drugs, promiscuity, petty theft, drug trafficking, prisons......
It is already God's mercy to live to be 37 years old.
As for knowledge and knowledge, there is nothing at all, and it is difficult to even read and write, can you expect such a guy to understand the history of the world? Can you expect to know the current state of the world? Can you expect such a guy to bring you something different and wonderful?
Impossible!
This guy is semi-literate, even if he lives on crooked ways all his life, his crooked skills are not up to par.
Fortunately, he still has a home, a hometown, which is also the deepest place in Cali's memory, of course, the reason why he is impressed is not because of how warm his home is, but because of the abuse he has received in this home.
When it comes to this, I have to say that the guys in the Federation are simply polarized, and can produce a lot of virgin, but they can also produce a lot of superlatives.
Drinking alcohol, drugs, and beating children is a common thing in many families.
Cali was no exception, and because he couldn't stand his father's drunken beatings, he left his hometown at the age of 17 and wandered into the chaotic city, not returning for 20 years.
In 20 years, a lot of things can be changed, but I don't know if my drunkard father and cowardly mother are still alive.
However, in 20 years, the drunken old man should not live that long, the cowardly old lady was good to him back then, and he was healthy, and he should still be alive now, since there is nowhere to go, it is better to go back to his hometown to live for a while.
That small town surrounded by mountains and dense forests also meets his current expectations, he needs a place to recover his strength, of course, he will not stay there for long, because if you want to understand the essence of this world, you still need to come to the big city, you need to go to a place with many people, only in this way, can you slowly see the essence of this world.
But before that, he still needs a while to adjust himself and give himself the capital to gain a foothold in this world.
Ten days later, the small town of Palos, a small town at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, was named after the Palos family.
The Palos family is the founder of this small town, three hundred years ago, they immigrated to the Federation from overseas, because of the gold rush and civilization, now, the gold mine has dried up, but the Palos family has also gathered a lot of wealth, changed to finance, and the base camp has long been moved to the big city, but the town of Palos is still where their family old house is located, is their basic plate, in addition to the old people who have been divided into many old people, most of them will choose to settle here after retirement.
Here, they are like lords.
Of course, this lord is just someone else's evaluation of them, as long as they are in the Federation, they all abide by the laws of the Federation and the rules of equality of all, and they cannot make any big mistakes in this regard, so that kind of oppression of the people will never happen.
However, the economic lifeline of this town has always been in their hands, and more than eighty percent of all the industries here belong to the Palos family, and the remaining two percent also have their shares.
It was a small town that thrived as a gold rush, and after the depletion of the gold mines, logging became the main economic lifeline of the city, with the Palos family's lumberyard being the largest business in the area.
Most of the people in the town work in the lumberyards, which are the backbone of the town's economy.
Overall, it's a calm and serene town.
When Chen Qi walked into the town, he was greeted by a police car, which quickly stopped in front of him.
This scene is very similar to the scene at the beginning of the first drop of blood, after all, Chen Qi's current outfit also looks very shabby.
A shabby jacket and jeans, some messy hair, thin figure, of course, much stronger than when he started detoxifying, at least now there are some human appearances, the surface of the skin is also shiny, carefully looking, he is still a handsome guy, but unfortunately, now he is still too thin, a few days, not enough to make up for the essence on his body.
A homeless looking guy entering a peaceful, serene and deserted town will naturally attract the attention of others, and for such a town, any stranger is worth noting, which is why the crime rate here is so low.
"Stand there and don't move!"
The police of the Federation have no scruples about civilized law enforcement, the police car stopped, the door opened, and the middle-aged policeman with a belly protruding like a pregnant woman pointed at Chen Qi while his other hand had touched his waist, and another younger one also posed in the same posture, looking at Chen Qi nervously.
Chen Qi didn't move, and raised his hands very cooperatively, but his eyes were staring at the middle-aged policeman tightly, watching him walk over step by step, Chen Qi suddenly laughed, "Morpheus, long time no see!"
The middle-aged policeman was obviously a little surprised, looked at Chen Qi suspiciously, and his tone softened a little, "Sir, do I recognize you?!"
"Of course, Morpheus, it's me, Cali, Cali of the Francis family!!"
"Ka, Kali?!"
The policeman named Morpheus was slightly stunned, and his mind began to spin rapidly, "You're Cali?!"
"It's me!" Chen Qi said with a smile, "I'm back!"
"Cali of the Francis family, you, you're back?!" Morpheus slowly put down the hand on his waist, walked over, looked Chen Qi up and down, and said, "It's you, it's really you, you, why have you changed so much?!"
"Change, my old friend, it's been twenty years, and if there is no change, I won't be a monster?!"
"Hehe, that's what I said!" Recognizing Cali, Morpheus also relaxed a little, "You're not dead yet, I thought you wouldn't be able to come back!"
"Am I not back?!"
Chen Qi pretended to be relaxed and said, "By the way, is my mother okay?!"
"Ugh!!"
Hearing this, Morpheus's gaze became strange, "Okay, not bad, she's okay, but ......!"
But what?
Looking at Morpheus's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Chen Qi was not surprised, after all, he had not returned here for twenty years, and twenty years was not a long time, not a short time, not a little bit of vicissitudes, but for a small town, the changes were still great.
"You'll know when you go back, I'll send you!"
"Thank you!"
Chen Qi smiled, followed Morpheus, and got into the police car.
