Chapter 37: The Vanishing Xia Yingying
Ma Le called home and told his parents that he was going to be out for two days, and then boarded the train. On the first day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were a lot of people on the train, Ma Le didn't buy a ticket, and stood all the way against the wall. Ma Le is now as long as he is idle, except for sleeping, he has been practicing internal strength.
stood like this all night, and the next morning, the train finally arrived, and Ma Le found Xia Yingying's school with Zhao Renfan's memory. Because Xia Yingying has seen his true face, Ma Le has always shown Zhao Renfan's appearance.
Coming to the communication room at the entrance of the school, Ma Le claimed to be Xia Yingying's relative and asked the staff about Xia Yingying's class. However, the uncle in the communication room shook his head and told him that he couldn't find out, so he either called the student or could only go to the academic affairs office of each department to check. Ma Lexin said that he had to find out about Ma Yue in the Year of the Monkey, so he begged the old man to broadcast a broadcast, and specially explained that a relative named "Zhao Renfan" was looking for her. But the radio was broadcast seven times in a row, and Ma Le waited for two hours, but Xia Yingying did not appear. Just when Ma Le was disheartened and ready to leave, a girl came to the communication room.
"Excuse me, is that your broadcast?" The girl asked Ma Le. This girl is ordinary-looking, slightly short and fat, obviously not Xia Yingying. Ma Le nodded and said, "It's me, may I ask ...... you are" The girl said: "I am Xia Yingying's classmate and her roommate." You don't have to wait, Xia Yingying...... I can't come. ”
Ma Le wondered, "Why, did something happen to her?" The girl shook her head and said, "I don't know, she took a day off from her teacher last week, but she never came back." Ma Le frowned and asked, "When is it?" The girl replied, "About a week ago...... I remember, it was last Tuesday. ”
Ma Le took a breath of cold air when he heard this, this was the second day he killed Zhao Renfan. Now that I think about it, it is impossible for their teammates to be killed without induction, and the reason why they did not come to Zhao Renfan's city to investigate must be because they were involved in a team battle. It seems that that Kukulkan has done Ma Le a great favor.
Ma Le asked the girl again where Xia Yingying's family lived, but the girl didn't know very well, only that she was a local. Xia Yingying is a freshman who entered this year, and it is only October, in other words, Xia Yingying was already an adventurer when she entered the school. As a senior adventurer, she will never expose her information lightly, so even if it is the information recorded by the school, it is mostly passive.
It seemed that the trip was destined to be fruitless, so Ma Le had to return to the train station and decided to buy a ticket to go home. But when he got to the window, he reacted, and the ticket had exhausted his last savings, and now he only had 12 yuan in total.
As the saying goes, a penny is hard to beat a hero, Ma Le has been in Miracle City and the mission world for so long, and has subconsciously ignored the role of real money. Now when it's time to use it, I realize that in the real world, even if I have the ability to reach the sky, it is still difficult to move an inch without money.
In desperation, Ma Le had no choice but to sit on the bench in the square in front of the station in a daze. Looking at the train station with people coming and going, my head is thinking about how to make money. "Why don't you do labor? Anyway, I don't have to worry about food and shelter, the energy I got from absorbing the regenerative beast last time can support at least another three days, and this time is enough to earn money for the ticket. Ma Le muttered.
At this moment, a familiar face suddenly appeared in the crowd leaving the station. With his short and fat body, the oily sweat on his forehead, his fat lips, his underwhelming expression, and his signature Mediterranean hairstyle, it was safe that he didn't run! Ma Le blurted out the man: "Boss Wang, why are you here?" ”
That's right, this guy is the owner of the antique shop who was almost killed by Ma Le, Wang Zekai!
When Boss Wang heard someone calling him, he habitually looked back, and when he saw Ma Le who was waving at him, he couldn't help but feel weak in his legs, so he knelt on the ground. Now his feelings for Ma Le are very complicated, including the fear of falling when he was beaten, and the awe of being intimidated by the "mysterious man" when he came back to life...... In a word, in the eyes of the current Boss Wang, Ma Le is the master who must not be provoked and cannot be provoked.
Therefore, hearing Ma Le call him, Boss Wang first took a deep breath, stabilized his body so as not to fall, and then came to Ma Le in a hurry: "Ma...... Mr. Ma, you call me? ”
Ma Le didn't stand up either, and nodded pretending to be profound: "Well, you are no longer applying for the market to do good business, why did you come here?" ”
Boss Wang wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said in fear: "That, this...... This is my hometown, isn't this Mid-Autumn Festival coming, I'm going home for a reunion......"
Ma Le was happy when he heard it, this is really a coincidence, but he didn't expect that this Boss Wang and Xia Yingying were still fellow countrymen. Looking at Boss Wang, who was sincerely afraid, Ma Le's eyes rolled, and he asked in a long tone: "I said Boss Wang, how is your body, is it okay?" Boss Wang smiled and said, "Don't call me the boss, I'm just an antique dealer...... Thanks to you, not only do I have no injuries now, but I am also in better shape than before, and I can run and jump like an athlete! ”
"Thanks to me?" Ma Le knew it in his heart, but he pretended to have an incredible expression on his face, and then changed it to an expression of regret and dissatisfaction, and smacked his lips: "Tsk, I'll just tell Anderson, I'll leave if I save someone, don't mention my business to you, we've been working together for many months, and the relationship is so deep, won't it be a break up if you make such a fuss...... Alas, this Anderson, go back and talk about him! ”
When Boss Wang heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, it's not about that adult, it's me who asks, I ask, hehe......" Ma Le saw Boss Wang's appearance, and smiled secretly in his heart, but on the surface he still sighed and said: "Alas, you can't be blamed for this, it's all to blame for my ineffective subordinates." I originally wanted to beg you for something this time, but now it's like this, how can I open my mouth! ”
When Boss Wang heard that he could help the powerful "Mr. Ma", it was too late to be happy, and he couldn't wait to say: "Oh, you can say something if you have something!" You also said that we have such a good relationship, shouldn't we help each other! ”
Ma Le's heart blossomed, and he still had a difficult expression on his face: "Oh, this is actually not a big deal, but it is not easy to speak...... This time I came to meet a friend, but the fun was too crazy, the flower was too fierce, and when I was about to leave, I found that I had no money to buy a ticket, and asked me to go back and borrow it from my friend, I couldn't pull my face, you see......"
When Boss Wang heard that it was a trivial matter, he immediately took out a bank card and stuffed it to Ma Le: "Mr. Ma, there are more than 100,000 yuan here, which was originally going to go home to buy local products, but now since you are nervous for a while, I will give it to you, the password is 012581, a small meaning, not a tribute!" ”
Ma Le's original plan was to blackmail 1,800, but he didn't expect this Boss Wang to be so bold and throw out 100,000 yuan directly. Ma Le knows that Boss Wang is rich, but he also knows that he is slamming the door, and the 100,000 yuan represents not only money, but also Boss Wang's bloody heart. As everyone knows, although this boss Wang is stingy, but he can make such a big business, he is definitely not stupid, Ma Le is now the mysterious Mr. Ma in his eyes, as long as he can tie up with him, let alone 100,000, 1 million without hesitation.
Although I wanted it in my heart, I still had to make a show on my face, and after several pushes, Ma Le finally accepted the bank card "reluctantly". The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and when they were about to break up, Ma Le suddenly remembered something and said to Boss Wang: "By the way, I'm looking for someone, it should be a local here, her name is Xia Yingying, girl, about eighteen or nineteen years old, a freshman at the University of Finance and Economics, about 1.70 meters tall, and her appearance is very beautiful. Boss Wang nodded in agreement, and Ma Le left him his new phone number.
After Boss Wang left, Ma Le went to the nearest ATM to check, sure enough, there were more than 100,000 yuan in the card, he clenched his fist excitedly, with this money, he could go out and rent a house, even if he didn't work, he could maintain it for a while.
It was another dozen hours of driving, and by the time Ma Le returned to his hometown, it was already night. As soon as I entered the house, my father was pacing back and forth in the house, obviously bored. My mother was cleaning up the house. Ma Le came to the second elder with a smile and presented the travel voucher with both hands. Dad and Mom obviously didn't react, and asked Ma Le several times if it was true or false, and after getting Ma Le's affirmative answer repeatedly, the old couple burst into tears with excitement. This is not because of this small travel voucher, you know, although this tourist voucher is precious, it is far less than the filial piety of the son contained in it!
I immediately called the reservation number on the travel voucher, but suddenly learned that if I want to travel abroad, I need to apply for a passport visa...... Hearing the news, Ma Le slapped his head and was busy in vain. But the old couple was still very happy, and decided to apply for a passport tomorrow, and my mother would buy a product and prepare for the trip in advance!
Ma Le had the 100,000 yuan from Boss Wang, and specially bought some gifts for Ma Xiaoxiao to bring back, which could be regarded as thanking her for helping to take care of her father, but after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no answer. My mother told Ma Le that Ma Xiaoxiao would go back to school in the evening, and there were still many things waiting for her to deal with, and the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday was also compressed. But Ma Xiaoxiao came to Ma Le to go shopping with this morning, but Ma Le was in the communication room of Xia Yingying's school at that time.
In the next few days, my mother was busy shopping, my father stayed at home and had nothing to do, and as for Ma Le, he had been practicing Jiuyang Divine Skill. With the continuous consolidation of the first layer of realm, Ma Le felt more and more that a breakthrough was imminent, but it was just a little bit close. And although this little bit seems to be able to rush over with just one rivet, it is very tenacious and stubborn, blocking Ma Le's true qi from the door again and again.
In this way, in the continuous cultivation, Ma Le once again ushered in the call of Miracle City.
