Chapter 39: "Waiting for Someone"
There are times when there is no traffic jam in the magic capital,
Like,
There are also places in the capital where house prices are cheaper.
Well? Q: Where??
Of course, it's in "The Wandering Earth 2".
The morning rush hour has passed, but the afternoon rush hour has not arrived.
At this time, the magic is not stuck in traffic,
The hearse moved freely through the traffic and headed in the direction of the funeral home.
In the hearse,
The ruffian mother held the coffin with both hands, as if she was afraid that her baby daughter would be bumped on such a smooth road as the intercity highway.
Yuna wrapped a black rosary with one hand and folded her hands towards the coffin, which seemed to be the etiquette of the undertaker in Korea.
Ling Nai, Xiao Jiu, and Doll, the three of them kept talking on the phone, constantly communicating and coordinating all parties.
Liu Li didn't listen to the content of their phone calls, just looking at their expressions, she knew that the communication was not very smooth.
Ling Nai hung up the phone and said worriedly: "Sister Liuli, the funeral home, the cemetery, as well as the cooperative feng shui masters, monks, Taoist priests, musicians, and downstream suppliers such as coffins and urns, all have problems."
Liu Li's eyes were hollow, as if he was in a daze, and he asked absentmindedly, "Oh, what's wrong?"
Ling Nai, Xiao Jiu, Doll, you say a word, I said it a word:
"Funeral homes and the like signed contracts, because our liquidated damages were high, they said that they would not renew the contract when it expired, and we couldn't increase the price."
"It's even worse if you don't sign a contract, the musician in charge of mourning can't come directly, and it took many calls to find someone to top it temporarily."
"The supplier is in a similar situation, saying that they will no longer supply us in the future."
After they finished speaking, they angrily denounced:
"It must be that Brother Smashing is doing something!"
Liu Li was silent for a while, then suddenly exhaled and said lightly, "It's okay."
"How can it be okay?" Reina grabbed her hair in a hurry, "They bully people, this is so that we can't do business, and our customers will run out."
She looked at the delicate makeup that was made by Yun'er and had never been seen on Liu Li's face, and fell into suspicion.
It's good-looking, it's really very good-looking, it's a brilliant glow without dead ends, just like a ten-level filter appears in reality.
Reina just wondered if Yuna had put on too much makeup on the dead and something was wrong.
Sister Liuli, who is usually in a hurry, why did she become so Buddhist?
Liu Li chuckled: "Don't worry, I said it's okay, in the future, the situation will be different after today."
She said firmly, as if she was talking about the five people in the funeral parlor, female and male-loving, there is no doubt about it.
Although Ling Nai and the others were confused, they still inexplicably knew in their hearts.
In fact
Liu Li is better than they thought,
Be sure.
Just as she stepped into the hearse and set off for the funeral home,
A system prompt sounded "ding".
Liu Li was not in a daze just now, but the words on the system panel.
After all, this is a big change in the level of version change.
As the old saying goes, one generation is one god.
How can you not study it well?
At this moment, it is still suspended on the translucent panel in front of Liu Li, and lines of text are still floating:
"System upgrade complete!"
"The funeral anchor system is officially launched."
"Ding!"
"Detected that the host is about to start the first funeral livestream."
"Ding!"
"The exclusive supporting facilities for funeral anchors have been activated, and they will be put into use after the first funeral live broadcast.
including, but not limited to,
exclusive funeral parlors;
exclusive cemetery;
Exclusive Spirit Bone Tower ......"
"Please make full use of the host and pay attention to maintenance."
In just a few lines, Liu Li went up and down, front and back, left and right, and couldn't wait to look upside down.
Exclusive funeral parlors, cemeteries, bone towers, ......, what is this concept?
This is in the magic capital!
Not to mention the buildings themselves, how much is the land?
Is this something I can have without spending money?
Liu Li felt the exclusive favor of being contracted in the fish pond in the boss.
Over there has just been subjected to various difficulties from upstream and downstream,
The upgraded system here has come to a super double,
It's really a domineering system that falls in love with me.
Liu Li's eyes narrowed involuntarily, like a little fox that had been fed a fat chicken that was flowing with oil.
"Sister Ruri?"
Rena called carefully.
She was worried that her boss couldn't stand the blow, she was depressed or something, and she looked at something wrong.
"Ahem, it's okay, we just need to preside over today's funeral."
Liu Li looked at the ruffian mother who was holding the coffin in her hand, and secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, the ruffian mother came from out of town, and she didn't have any relatives, everything was simple, and today's funeral was mainly just cremation.
If it's a complicated one,
The real funeral dragon, the one that requires the cooperation of all parties, really can't be completed.
That's the end of the calf.
My exclusive funeral facilities, didn't I put on wings and fly away.
"Sister Liuli, are you worried about smashing the field?"
Ling Nai saw that Liu Li's eyes were out of focus again, and asked cautiously again.
"He?"
Liu Li scoffed.
Several other junior secretaries also looked worried.
The clamor in Brother Smashing Field's video yesterday is still in his ears, and the news on his account has been updated one after another, and the last one is that the person has boarded the plane on the way back to the magic capital.
Before the person arrived, the pressure he exerted was reflected in the first step.
Xiao Jiu pursed his lips and reminded: "Old ~ boss, it will take more than 4 hours to fly back to the magic capital from Bangkok, and he boarded the plane before six o'clock in the morning, calculate the time, when he arrives at the funeral home, our side should not be over yet."
Ling Nai: "Sister Liuli, today is our first live broadcast, and we must prevent him from making trouble.
Our magic capital Liuli funeral, can't be like Brother Smashing the field, and live broadcast himself into a fun person."
Liu Li thought that in a live broadcast of Brother Smashing the Field, her face was swollen, and she finally ended up running away, which made her feel funny.
If it weren't for the bride's affair, she would still be a little reluctant to pay attention to such a happy person.
Little secretaries, you and I are talking word by word, and even Yun'er, who is holding the rosary with her hands folded, can't concentrate, and glances over from time to time, looking like she wants to join the group chat.
"Ann, Ann."
Liu Li waved his hand and said confidently, "I know what you're worried about, put your heart back in your stomach."
"Today's field is smashed, he can't come."
"I said it."
Liu Li's determination infected Ling Nai and them again, and they were still a little uneasy, but they didn't say anything anymore.
After patting her chest, Liu Li glanced at the list of followers in the system again.
Especially, I glanced at the time of registering for the smashing brother.
Yesterday, in the morning, before 10 o'clock.
Steady.
Because—
Liu Li's gaze swept over the rest of the "registered customers".
Confirmed time,
All within 24 hours of registration,
The people are gone.
Smashing the field, how can he be the exception?
Liu Li sneered:
"Want to run to my first funeral live broadcast to smash the scene?
Hehehe~
You can talk about it."
The Five Fingers Mountain of the Great God of the System, is it that you can escape if you say you can escape?
The only thing Liu Li can't be sure of is how will Brother Smash the field die?!
Accidentally?
That's too cheap for him, too.
I don't understand the anger. Curious. Can't wait for the replay. Want to see, right away!
Liu Li turned on his mobile phone and flipped through it, Brother Smashing Field hadn't started the live broadcast yet, and he should still be on the plane.
She had to put down her mobile phone boredly, watching Lingna and the materials they needed to put before filming the live broadcast, and from time to time she acted as a tool person responsible for posing for them to shoot.
Time passes slowly.
The hearse gradually bumped, the straight and flat road was gone, and old bungalows appeared on both sides, with barren grass one person high, dense forests, and low hills where old graves were occasionally seen......
Far from the city,
It's close to the funeral home.
Under the account of the Demon Capital Liuli Funeral Dragon, a new video was released.
It's full of footage from yesterday and today's shooting, edited to the soundtrack, as a warm-up before the first funeral livestream.
"Wow!"
"Look, a lot of people watched the video as soon as it was released."
"A lot of comments, a lot of barrage."
"They're all waiting for us to go live."
Reina raised the tablet in her hand and screamed happily.
"Huh? I'll see."
Liu Li and the four little secretaries all turned into bowed heads and brushed in the hearse.
In this video, Liu Li maintains the usual style of shaking off the shopkeeper, and he is a tool man who is responsible for being posed, and it is the first time he has seen it, and he has a surprising feeling.
It begins with a lament: "Good things are always grinding."
the clamor and obstruction of the smashing brother;
the ruffian's entanglement and hesitation;
a mud truck that almost crashed into a funeral parlor;
Liu Li said "get out", and then she really got out of the fat mother......
A prelude, Shengsheng cut out a blockbuster feeling, ups and downs, ups and downs, pretending to be forced to slap the face, a lot.
In the end, when Liu Li faced the mud truck, his straight posture (scared stupid) was frozen, and the prelude ended.
Followed by
are the seven coffins in the mortuary,
It's Yuna who is repairing the beauty of the ruffian with makeup,
It was the bowl of soy sauce fried rice that Liu Li provided to the deceased......
At the end of the video,
Finally, for the first time, he gave the face of the ruffian's beauty.
She wore delicate makeup on her face and looked serene and serene, her hands folded in her lower abdomen, lying in a coffin with a warm lamp built-in.
The lid of the coffin closed slowly.
The female voice at the beginning of the video sounded again:
"At 10 o'clock in the morning, the live broadcast started on time, and I won't see you there."
After Liu Li finished reading it, he felt a little unfinished.
She is like this, let alone water friends?
The barrage and comment area are carnival all the way:
"Blow up this video."
"Brother Smashing came out and was beaten, compared to this video, what he posted was Tuo Xiang."
"The bad movie "Can You Don't Leave Me", come out and be beaten, and you will get angry when you mention it, watch this broken film on Valentine's Day, and go out with your daughter-in-law to blow the cold wind in five minutes."
"Sister Liuli is good, domineering side leakage, licking the screen."
"Ah, suddenly it's professional, this makeup ...... for the body."
"I'm eating fried chicken ......"
"The young lady who makes up is so gentle, she loves love."
"Hey, I entered the music and coffin in that mortuary, and I was scared to pee, I thought it was a horror movie."
"! It's beautiful!"
"Is the ruffian so good-looking?"
"Damn, it's obviously a pickled pepper phoenix claw ......, bah, bah, the demon capital Liuli funeral dragon, you deserve it."
「……」
Liu Li couldn't stop brushing until she saw the "pickled pepper phoenix claws", especially when she brought her own dry food to lick it without hesitation, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity came to her heart.
She deliberately looked at the ID that sent the comment.
ID: 10,000 pigs killed you.
Oh, it's him, that's fine.
At this time, the hearse slowly stopped......
Funeral home, 9:45 a.m.
Liu Li and the ruffian, as well as the coffin, were still in the hearse, and Yun'er, Lingna, Xiaojiu, and Doll got out of the car first and began to decorate.
Funeral home, 10 a.m.
The live broadcast begins,
As soon as possible, hundreds of fans poured into the live broadcast room.
They see that—
The hearse door opened, and a handful of yellow paper money was scattered, flying all over the sky......
Airport, 10 a.m.
The live stream begins.
Brother Smashing took a selfie stick and walked alone on the covered bridge where he got off the plane.
"Fans, brother is back!"
"In order to catch up with the scene, brother is easy, he catches the plane alone, he doesn't even have a follower to follow the shot, and he has to lift a selfie stick by himself, when did my brother suffer this grievance?"
"Hey, there's a little little bit of a crowd today, huh?"
Brother Smashing Field was walking at the airport while interacting with fans in the live broadcast room.
"Damn, all of them went to the demon capital Liuli? She's on the air too, isn't she?"
"Dare to steal my brother's limelight, rub my brother's popularity, this matter is not over."
"Everyone, let's see, brother will rush over and smash her immediately."
Brother Smashing scolded and walked out, and then began to brag about how good he had last night at the Ritz-Carlton Hidden Hotel in Thailand, and how open the Thai girl was......
Outside the airport, café, 10:05 a.m.
The Marshall loudspeaker is playing a religious song, and the aroma of freshly ground single-origin coffee fills with the tune.
In front of the bar,
A man wearing a Korean version of a sunhat, a scruffy beard, and a white leather sleeve version of Kobe Bryant's destroyer jacket, with a decadent atmosphere, drinking coffee and watching the live broadcast.
There was a smashing brother on the mobile phone who described several battles with Tai Mei last night, no matter the voice and content, it was incompatible with the style and atmosphere of this café.
The barista brought a cup of pour-over coffee, put it in front of the decadent man, and said, "Guest, this cup is for you, freshly roasted beans, try it."
Immediately, she glanced at the live broadcast screen on the decadent man's mobile phone, and frowned, "Brother Smashing the field? Do you like this influencer?"
The decadent man shook his head, "I don't like it."
"I don't like it either, it's bad in my bones, I don't respect women at all, I heard that there was a death and ran away recently, why did you come back?"
"I don't know who I'm going to do."
The female barista recognized at a glance the background of Brother Smashing's live broadcast, which was the airport not far away.
The decadent man was just silent, just sipping his coffee.
The barista changed the subject: "How about this bean?"
The decadent man smacked his mouth and said, "It has the flavor of white wine, the acidity is bright, is it the sun-dried Yergacheffe?"
"A connoisseur."
The barista smiled, "It's G1's beans, customers like this? Other people only say that it is delicious, bitter, sour, and fragrant, and it is rare to be able to tell the variety and flavor in one bite."
The decadent man smiled, "It's my wife who likes to drink. We don't have much money, so she picks and buys cheap beans on Taobao and carefully pours them by hand, and if I drink them well and praise them, she will be happy all day."
The barista looked at the first smile on the decadent man's face, and it was unexpectedly warm, as if she had seen a decadent version of Hugo. So charming. It's a pity.
The barista said regretfully and enviously, "She must love you very much."
The decadent man smiled calmly, "I love her all the same."
The barista asked, "Are you here to pick up your wife?"
She didn't see the decadence
The waste man's luggage doesn't look like he's going to go far away.
The decadent man's smile disappeared and he shook his head slowly, "She's no longer there."
"Ah......h
The barista's first reaction was "Wouldn't I have a chance," and then she blamed herself and said, "I'm sorry."
"Then what ......are you doing at the airport?"
The decadent man pursed his lips, stared at the smashing brother on the mobile phone screen, and squeezed out four words from between his teeth:
"Wait for someone."
