Chapter Seventy-One: The New Director
The brilliant light over the North Mountain Barrier lit up overnight and did not subside until dawn. But the sky was still shrouded in clouds, and the occasional lightning strike made the blue light flicker slightly. The rain gradually subsided, changing from a downpour to moderate rain and then to a drizzle. The dragon king seemed to have lost his power and was about to leave, and the monks returned to the city from above.
Most of them took a vacation, which was a benefit from that powerful desolate spirit. But there are still quite a few people who are worried - the longest record for the desolate soul to stay in the sky over the city is fifteen days, and it is not known how long this guy plans to stay. As soon as the shops opened, the goods were snapped up, but fortunately, the water supply was restored, and every household was busy stocking up on water.
Zhou Lihuang walked along the street for a while, unable to decide whether to go out of the city and go back to Xiaoyuan Mountain.
After sending Zhou Yunting back to the suburbs a few days ago, he found an excuse to "see if the lucky cat succeeded" and entered the city again. In fact, he was afraid to get along with his father...... Worried that he changed his mind and sent himself like that big brother.
These days, I linger in high-end clubs and hotels, and occasionally go to the city defense area to report a word. He hasn't been appointed yet, and he's still an "inspector". It wasn't until last night that the Dragon King appeared in the sky above Beishan that he breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as his father, as a fourth-level monk, must have to meet the enemy, he must not have time to think about his affairs. Second, it was extremely inconvenient to enter and exit the Beishan Barrier, and he could stay in the city with peace of mind.
But by the morning the controls seemed to be loosened. It is not difficult to get out of the city as him, and he has been fighting in the sky all night, and it is a big rebellion for him not to go home to visit. So he wondered if he was making up a nonsense...... said that he met Li Qingyan again, and he was so entangled that he couldn't get out.
Last night, when the power went out in the city, he spent the night in an underground clubhouse that was still brightly lit. In the early morning, I still didn't feel sleepy, but the people in the clubhouse also dispersed, so I had to come out and shake it. While worrying in my heart, I thought back to the girl who was very energetic last night, as if her surname was Yu ......
Last name...... Damn it.
Zhou Lihuang was stunned for a moment and stopped.
It can't be Pei Yuanxiu's fiancée, right!?
He wiped his face and blinked. I wonder if I did anything too much last night...... I touched a few handfuls...... The girl was very open. But it seems that it is only open, and no one is allowed to take advantage. Further back...... I took some medicine, but I can't remember it clearly. But when I woke up, the girl next to me was not the one surnamed Yu.
He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that there should be no big problem. That girl mentioned Pei Yuanxiu several times when chatting last night. Although he didn't say anything about his relationship, it sounded like an emotion bordering on admiration and infatuation. That's why he came to her, and he felt a little "revenge" in his heart.
It's good that I didn't mess with Pei Yuanxiu. Although he and that guy are both from a family, they are not in the same circle. His friends, though he didn't like to say so, were all wine bags and rice bags. Including those in the clubhouse.
And Pei Yuanxiu's circle can be regarded as an "elite". There are many people of the younger generation like him in Beishan City who don't like Pei Yuanxiu, but they only dare to scold a few words behind their backs. No one wants to mess with the head of operations in the Secret Service, and he has a bunch of powerful friends around him.
...... Li Qingyan is not easy to mess with, and he is also from Pei Yuanxiu's side. Zhou Lihuang thought sullenly.
Then he found that he somehow walked to Hongyang Street.
Probably because I've been thinking about that guy. He's not dead...... If you don't do it, you will retaliate. Lucky Cat doesn't answer his calls these days...... Damn, it can't be killed by Li Qingyan.
In the past few days, he has checked the street office where Li Qingyan "took office". So he was stunned for a while, and then went there again.
He himself couldn't say what kind of psychology it was because of it - a bit like killing someone and then returning to the crime scene to be an onlooker and watch the excitement. But Li Qingyan is definitely not there now. At the official level, he should have been wanted, identified as a "radical of the Promotion Association".
He wanted to see what the hell that guy had been doing in the past. How can he endure loneliness and take care of the trivial things on the street?
After walking for another ten minutes, I saw the sign of the street office at the entrance of the small courtyard. This street is usually deserted, but this morning it was lively. There were many military vehicles parked in the streets, all large trucks loaded with goods. Some fighters are going from house to house in the streets, but not to ordinary civilians, but to retired veteran cadres living nearby.
Welfare of the urban defense system in the event of a disaster...... Zhou Lihuang thought.
At this time, he was a little envious of Pei Yuanxiu's people. Of course, there is no shortage of these things in his home, but he has experienced a sense of "being protected". Others of a similar identity to him may not feel this way, but he does.
Maybe Li Qingyan was right that day...... I am very insecure, so I want to be accepted by someone or system.
The more help the sooner done. He walked through the crowd to the door of the courtyard and looked inside. The courtyard door was locked, and he reached out and touched the lock, stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, the four military vehicles parked on the side of the street drove away, and those who were soldiers also lined up to the front.
He didn't know where he got the courage, and while no one was paying attention, he easily jumped over the wrought iron gate and jumped into the courtyard.
He wanted to go to Li Qingyan's room to take a look.
But just as he was about to take a step, he heard someone shouting to him: "...... Comrade, comrade!"
Zhou Lihuang hurriedly turned around. I saw a middle-aged man coming out of the street corner, wearing a white bracelet, running out of breath.
"Comrade, are you the new deputy director of the street office?" the man strode across the street, as if he was in a hurry, and clinged to the iron door with both hands.
Zhou Lihuang breathed a sigh of relief. I want to return a "no" and send him away. But the man's next sentence made him change his mind.
"Comrade, do you know the former Director Xiao Li, where did he go?"
Director Xiao Li ...... Zhou Lihuang squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "Yes." What's wrong?"
The man breathed a sigh of relief. But he glared at him again: "Where did he go......?" I live in the Hefoch community, my surname is Wen...... I...... I've got something to look for him. ”
Zhou Lihuang didn't know where he got his thoughts or what kind of psychology he came from, so he asked, "What is the matter with him?" ”
The man was stunned and glanced into the courtyard: "I ......"
Zhou Lihuang snorted in his heart. What are you doing? Li Qingyan has really become everyone's favorite as a ghostly street office director in such a place? Now I am the new director! He thought, "Is there anything I can't call the shots?" My energy is greater than his!
He straightened his face: "What the hell is the matter? If he can solve it, I can solve it." ”
