Chapter 24: Close Your Eyes When It's Dark

He Huanyu caught up with the eldest lady in a shantytown almost a kilometer away.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the eldest lady arrived home and stopped and shouted to the house to help move things, he really wouldn't have been able to catch up.

After all, the big lady usually runs a lot when she looks at it. No, there are a few guests in the back who are slowly familiar with the way here, just like a regular customer.

"Ahem, auntie, it's really not easy to eat your tofu skin and never practice middle-distance running." He Huanyu gasped, and took a cup of ice mung bean paste from the foam box and said while drinking.

"There's no way around it, I usually don't come to go through the motions until 9 o'clock, and I don't know what's going on today." The eldest lady familiarly packed the bean skin and began to fry the ham and eggs he added for He Huanyu, "Are you spicy?" ”

is not the same as the reports of "chengguan beating people" and "smashing stalls" often seen on the Internet, this chengguan is actually in a state of peace with the vendors more often.

Basically, the chengguan came slowly when they arrived, and then the vendors saw it and left. When the chengguan leaves, you can come back if you want to put it up, and if you don't want to put it up, you can close the stall and go home to rest.

The urban management of the people is also the responsibility, and if the two sides are more tolerant, there will naturally be no major incidents.

As for some extreme cases, it cannot be said that there are none, only that they are not common.

After all, the chengguan is also a human being, and there are relatives and friends, and if you look down and don't look up in such a small place, you are famous that the whole family can't stay.

"Well, it's slightly spicy." He Huanyu drank all the ice mung bean paste in one go, and couldn't help but take another cup. I was digging into my pocket and preparing to pay, but I was stopped by my aunt.

"I'll ask you for this cup, no money." The eldest lady waved her hand, smiled and mixed the scrambled eggs and ham with a bean skin sprinkled with seasoning, handed it to He Huanyu and said, "It's hard for you to run so far." ”

He Huanyu was also not polite, while eating bean skin on this mung bean paste, he chatted with the eldest lady without a word.

Speaking of which He Huanyu has a somewhat eccentric temperament, he basically has nothing to say to acquaintances (people who are familiar with his family and personal situation), but he can talk about everything with strangers.

Thanks to the habit of reading books since he was a child and running around when he has nothing to do, although he is well-read and knowledgeable, although he is not knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, he can basically reluctantly continue to talk about any topic that others talk about.

Unlike the "old men" who like to talk about national affairs, the elderly aunts generally prefer to talk about the shortcomings of the parents, the wealth, rice, oil and salt.

Maybe it's because He Huanyu is still a new acquaintance, or maybe he thinks that some topics are too young to be suitable. The eldest lady did not incarnate as an "intelligence station", telling all kinds of gossip and dishes from all directions, but simply chatting about her own situation, and it was not easy to live.

The eldest mother's surname is Chen, and she originally worked in the nearby Ruocheng Cement Factory with her lover Uncle Li, raising two sons, and her life was okay.

As a result, a few years ago, because of the poor efficiency of the factory, the husband and wife were both laid off. Uncle Li couldn't go to work in a private brickyard in other places, while Aunt Chen was pushing a cart to sell some money to supplement the family early.

"That's my big man, his name is Li Jun, I used to work in Jiangcheng Computer City, and I have more than 1,000 yuan a month." Aunt Chen pointed to the twenty-four-five-year-old young man who had just come out to help her set the table and said proudly, "But I don't know what this guy thinks, he actually quit some time ago after a good job, and now he is turning the computer at home, and sometimes he will help me do some work when he is too busy." ”

"Young people always have their own ideas, such as ideals or something." He Huanyu sucked haha (not a typo) and ate the hot bean skin, while answering disapprerovitously, completely ignoring how obvious the contrast between the "old age" in his words and the "immature" on his cheeks was.

"Yes, he's too big to manage." Aunt Chen seemed to be choked by He Huanyu's stinky and shameless "pretending to be old", and then sighed and said, "Fortunately, my family is quite obedient, but he went to study at the Southwest People's University in Rongcheng, and you can't see it." ”

When the words Southwest Minmin University were spoken, the pride on Mrs. Chen's face became more and more obvious.

"That's pretty impressive." He Huanyu replied with a smile. Strictly speaking, it's not all flattery.

Although the 2006 Guangdu Song and Dance Vocational and Technical School has not been included in the 2011 plan to be upgraded to a key university, it is also a real book.

In 2006, when the general education was not high, this is also a very good academic capital.

"Does it taste good? It's not enough, and I don't charge you more. When Aunt Chen heard people praising her son, her eyes were gone, and she waved the spoon in her hand magnificently and said, "Xiao Yan needs to eat more to grow taller and stronger." ”

"Enough is enough, I have a small stomach and can't eat much." He Huanyu hurriedly waved his hand and declined, joking, he poured three cups of mung bean paste, plus a bowl of bean skin, how could he stuff too many things.

……

The lady's craftsmanship is very good, the taste of the bean skin is very good, and the chat with the aunt is also very pleasant, full of the short market atmosphere of the parents.

It's just that He Huanyu always feels that Aunt Chen's eldest son named Li Jun is a little familiar, and he seems to have seen it somewhere but he can't remember it.

Even the name seems to have been heard somewhere, well, it seems that the "Mixed River Dragon" in "Water Margin" is called this name.

……

After breakfast, he walked around the neighborhood for a while, and estimated that everyone was up, and He Huanyu slowly swayed back to Su Jin's house.

The morning was a little difficult, Su Jin's mother went out to buy vegetables, and the four idle "idlers" were left looking at each other.

"Alas! It's boringβ€”" He Huanyu sighed and wailed.

"It's not that you don't want to play mahjong." Su Fox rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Not only mahjong, but even poker, you don't want to play." ”

"It would be nice to have a few more people, and we could play some other games." He Huanyu didn't pay attention to Su Jin's complaints, but just sighed to himself.

In fact, what is even more outrageous is that he didn't see the Internet cafΓ© when he walked around in the morning, not even last night.

"It's not easy to find someone, you can call as many as you want." Su Jin was ready to "shake people".

"Well, let's see how many you can call. Three, seven, nine. He Huanyu shrugged indifferently.

Soon, He Huanyu saw Su Fox's way of shaking people.

This person actually just went out and knocked on the door of a few rows of nearby residents.

After a while, Su Fox came back with a dozen or so girls ranging in age from fifteen or sixteen to early twenties.

This operation really made He Huanyu shout "".

It's really thanks to the fact that the residents in this building have enough daughters.

If this is placed in 2022, when the difference between male and female students is nearly 30 million, it is really unthinkable.

Spit and complain, He Huanyu still coughed lightly to explain the rules of the game to everyone.

That's right, he is ready to take this group of women's army and Xiao Zihao, the "lone seedling", to play "werewolf killing".

You must know that the killing game with the background of werewolf culture became popular all over the country in 2017, and during that time, basically nine and a half out of ten college students could play and enjoy it.

Rounding off to 2006, eleven years ago, He Huanyu didn't believe that this game could not "conquer" these "little girls" who were not deeply involved in the world.

After a long meal, He Huanyu finally finished talking about the roles of each character and the basic rules of the game, and then took out twenty cards from the deck of poker on the table, showed them and said to everyone, "This K represents the prophet, Q represents the witch, J is the hunter, these three aces are werewolves, and these four threes are civilians."

"As for the ten cards from the Ace of Spades to the 10 of Spades, they are your number, and you are now taking them and spreading them out in front of you. When you play, you use the number to refer to the individual, don't forget.

"Later, after I shuffle the cards, you will draw the characters in turn, confirm their identities and not be seen by others, and then play according to the process I said, are you clear?"

He Huanyu said, glancing at the crowd sitting in rows on the bamboo bed, like elementary school students in class.

"I have a problem," Xiao Zihao said, raising his hand, "why don't you have a number." ”

"Nonsense, I'm a judge and want a number." He Huanyu rolled his eyes, "Why do you still want to assassinate the judge?" ”

"But I also want to be a judge." Xiao Zihao said weakly.

It seems that playing games with a lot of strange girls, he is also a little apprehensive.

", if you know the process, be a judge." He Huanyu scolded and ignored him directly, "Does anyone else have a problem?" No, let's try it out next, come, first take your number and put it in a prominent position in front of you, and then come to me in order according to the number to draw character cards in my hand. ”

He Huanyu said and handed over the ace of spades to the 10 of spades, and then shuffled the remaining ten character cards in his hand and shuffled them repeatedly.

After everyone had drawn the character card, He Huanyu slowly cleared his throat and spoke again, "Okay, everyone has confirmed their respective identities, and now listen to my password."

"Please close your eyes when it's darkβ€”"

Everyone obediently closed their eyes.

"Werewolves who got the ace of diamonds and aces of clubs, please open your eyes-" He Huanyu was worried that everyone was not familiar with it, so he also brought the suit of the playing cards when he reported the character cards.

As soon as the words fell, He Huanyu saw No. 2 Su Fox and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl with a double ponytail, No. 5, and a temperamental beauty No. 8 who looked like a college student wearing thick glasses, opened his eyes.

"Ahem, werewolves, please confirm each other's companions." He Huanyu coughed lightly, "Werewolves, please kill." ”

Su Fox quickly stretched out a finger and signaled that it was Xiao Zihao who she wanted to kill.

"Ahem, werewolves, please agree on it."

Double Ponytail No. 5 and Thick Glasses No. 8 had just played, and they didn't have any grievances, but seeing that Su Fox, the No. 2 wolf teammate, insisted on killing No. 1, they didn't care and stretched out a hand to agree to kill No. 1 Xiao Zihao.

"Okay, werewolf, please close your eyes." He Huanyu held back a smile and pretended to be calm and said, "The prophet who got the king of hearts, please open your eyes." ”

As He Huanyu's voice, which was actually not too natural, fell, Xiao Zihao immediately opened his closed eyes.
