Chapter 20: Black Bird
After a while, the Starry Sky Piepies were ready. Lancelot brought the steaming stargazing faction to Zheng Yuanli.
The so-called stargazing faction.
It is...
Arrange the sardines in rows in the pie, with the heads and tails exposed.
The head of the fish is facing upwards, and the sardine has no eyelids, so it naturally stares upwards.
This stargazing pie has three sardines, which may have been deliberately placed by the boss according to the head.
Zheng Yuanli saw the sardine staring at him deadly, as if he couldn't blink an eye. I can't help but feel that it would be more appropriate to call it a dead and blind faction.
Perhaps, there is only one reason why normal people would eat this kind of food under the stars, the light is relatively dim, and it is not easy to see clearly, so it is not easy to see the sardines' dead eyes. In short, it is not because someone looks up at the starry sky with their lover that they have to eat such a delicacy.
Lucy, the proprietress of the proprietress walked to the table of the three of them very enthusiastically and helped Zheng Yuanli share the piece he deserved.
"Try it, you'll love it."
The proprietress looked at him eagerly, Luna stared at him expectantly, and Lancelot silently picked up the knife and fork and began to eat without speaking.
Zheng Yuanli gently picked up the knife and fork, cut off the piece of bread crust, and put it in his mouth. It's not so tasty, it's not so bad, it's just ordinary dry bread.
"Yes, it's delicious."
Zheng Yuanli responded with an embarrassed smile.
"You see, I said Aunt Lucy's pie is the best in the world."
"Well, thanks to your support, I can keep this store going."
Zheng Yuanli seemed to hear something from Lucy's words, it seems that this store can still maintain its closure with such poor craftsmanship, and there is a story behind it.
So, he stared at the sardine for a moment.
"Lucy, in our China, eating fish heads and tails is particularly unlucky. I can't stop eating fish heads. ”
"That fish head doesn't need to be eaten in the first place."
Zheng Yuanli felt blessed in his heart.
Then, he silently cut off the head and tail of the fish, and quietly prayed in his heart for the dead sardine. I did my best to eat the starry sky pie on the plate.
After eating, he took a sip of lemonade to get rid of the fishy smell in his mouth.
From the trench coat, he took out three pieces of chewing gum, opened the wrapping paper by himself, and put one piece in his mouth. A piece was handed to Lancelot, who had already eaten. The last piece is placed on the table for Luna to see.
Lancelot took the gum and nodded in thanks.
When he got the gum, Zheng Yuanli saw the smile on the English gentleman's face for the first time, showing his straight teeth.
It seems that he also thinks it is too fishy.
"Thank you for your hospitality."
Zheng Yuanli whispered and put his share of the tip under the plate. However, this kind of action is usually done unless it is deliberately used by magic-like means, but the boss will notice it.
After a while, Lucy finished eating, and the three of them got up in turn.
Before leaving, the proprietress said goodbye to the three people very warmly. They even hugged Luna before leaving, and it was not difficult to see that they were very good friends.
Walking out of the store, it was a bit windy outside. Zheng Yuanli is still used to looking at his watch.
12:45。 I feel like I'm going to have to hurry up with time. But fortunately, it's not me who is driving, and I can squint on the Hello Kitty for a while before going to the investigation site.
"How's that, what do you think?"
Lucy asked Zheng Yuanli.
"Yes, that's good."
"Really?"
"Really."
"What a hypocrisy for the Orientals."
Zheng Yuanli stopped talking, and it was not too appropriate to say anything at this time. Although he was telling a white lie, he did, but he could also see that Luna had good intentions to take care of Lucy's business. It is not good to debunk such kindness.
So, hypocrisy is hypocrisy.
Lancelot heard his sister say that Zheng Yuanli was hypocritical, looked back at him, stuck out his tongue, and shrugged his shoulders. Kindly, buddy, don't take it to heart.
Zheng Yuanli was very concerned, and also shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he really didn't take it to heart.
Three people, back on the pink Hello Kitty.
The car began to move along the river bank, and the small car was particularly agile at noon.
As he passed by the huge Ferris wheel called London eye, Zheng Yuanli glanced up. He remembered that it seemed that his hometown Tianjin was also going to build a Ferris wheel for Tianjin eye...
In comparison ... It's still much better looking at the London eye.
Luna seemed to look up for a while as she passed by the London eye. Even, as the car gradually drove past the London eye, she kept looking back at the Ferris wheel behind her for a long time.
Looks like she really likes the Ferris wheel.
After passing by the London eye, no one in the car had any desire to speak, and everyone kept quiet tacitly. Zheng Yuanli put on the headphones.
This song is Teresa Teng's "He Rijun Will Come Again".
Good flowers don't bloom often, and good times don't always exist.
After parting tonight, He Rijun will come again.
…….
The car slowly stopped, and the force of Zheng Yuanli's stall let him know that he had arrived at his destination, and he gradually opened his eyes from a distant dream, and his interior scene was close to the intersection of yin and yang.
Luna in the front row stretched, and it seemed that she had slept deeply.
Zheng Yuanli took off his headphones and looked at his watch, the time was 13:30, it seemed that there was no traffic jam, the traffic along the way was very fast, and it was not too far here.
At this time, the roar of the plane gradually came from a distance, and he looked out of the windshield of the car. A plane was spotted from small to large and seemed to be circling and preparing to land.
"None of you told me this place was so close to the airport."
Zheng Yuanli asked.
"You know now."
"Yes."
Being close to the airport and being able to hear the noise means that the owner has already received compensation, but because the land is still his own, he can take the money and live in another place. Compensation in the UK is high.
In the Black Bird area, bird originally meant airport.
Black, which probably means that this is now a slum, because people who have received compensation will not want to continue to live in this kind of place. So their first choice is to rent out the house. Then I moved to live somewhere else.
Would these Irish Independents choose to live in the slums to cover their eyes?
Poverty and extremism often go hand in hand. It's not that they are extremists because they live in the slums, but extremists tend to have a narrow vision. It is usually difficult to make breakthroughs in life and career, and to make great achievements, so that they hate society even more. Such a spiral superposition turns the world's slums into hungry ghosts in the world, giving birth to the seeds of sin.
Of course, London's ghetto looks much better than the ghetto in South America. At least, they are only dealing with noise pollution and poor law and order.
