Chapter 70 Real or fake?

Unlike the sparsely populated underground shopping malls of later generations with most of the shops closed down, the shopping malls in 12 were really bustling.

Especially now that it is mid-July, the fog, one of the three major furnaces, has begun to show its power. Many elderly people sit at the stairs to enjoy the air-conditioning, and some even hold the radio and chat with their friends while listening.

Of course, there will be homeless people sleeping here at midnight.

There are mobile phone stores, game stores, children's clothing stores, tailor shops, women's clothing stores, etc. It is even more lively than the commercial street.

Gu Lu spent three hundred yuan to buy himself two sets of clothes, with the main colors being black, white and gray, and also picked out a pair of shoes.

The main reason is that he often dreams of flying recently. This is a sign of growing taller, so he doesn't buy too many clothes for the time being, otherwise it would be a waste if he can't wear them when he grows taller.

Gu Lu strolled around the underground mall, looking left and right, wondering if he could trigger the synthesis sequence, but unfortunately he didn't find anything after wandering around for an entire afternoon.

"It's something you can only encounter by chance, but if you try more new things, there will still be opportunities." Gu Lu thought to himself.

He remembered the previous work that was triggered, "After School", the item was a bow and arrow, and the prop used by the murderer in the book to block the sliding door was the bow and arrow of the Kyudo Club, so Gu Lu synthesized it when he bought the bow at the stall.

If it wasn't for buying a gift for his sister, Gu Lu couldn't imagine when he would be able to own a bow and trigger "After School".

"Pray, I'm willing to trade the lives of all five hundred thousand thieves for the next work that I can use."

After finishing his inner prayer, Gu Lu did not forget to buy some underwear for himself. He bought several pairs and went home.

Going on a long journey!
Two days later, Gu Lu locked the door and took a car to the airport.

It’s good to get the ID card. Gu Lu can take the plane by himself. In China, one can go through the formalities by himself when he is over twelve years old.

[Han editor: Teacher Gu, have you arrived at the airport? Let me know when you arrive.]
Although Gu Lu, who thinks like an adult, feels that flying alone is nothing to worry about, Han Zang is very worried. He has been calling since yesterday to remind him of various precautions.

Gu Lu briefly replied to the editor and checked in. He only brought two sets of clothes and a universal charger. He only had a small backpack and no need to check in luggage.

Many people have never heard of a universal charger, right? As long as the metal interface is aligned, it can charge any type of battery - oh, I forgot to add that when Gu Lu died suddenly in his previous life, mobile phones were already in an integrated form.

Gu Lu still likes the old mobile phones, so if the phone crashes, he can just pull out the battery...

After waiting in the terminal hall for half an hour, Gu Lu boarded the plane smoothly. He sent a message to Han Zang before turning off his phone before takeoff, so he could just get some sleep on the plane.

I chatted with Zhao Juan on QQ too late yesterday, and I forgot who contacted whom first through the Penguin account. Anyway, Zhao Juan has been quite proactive in chatting after graduation, and often looks for Gu Lu to share her summer vacation experiences.

Gu Lu seemed like a goblin living in a dark, damp and cold lair, peeping at the happy life of humans through a small window - Zhao Juan's father was a policeman and was very busy, but he would still take time out to take the family of three out for a big meal or something.

It was also through chatting that Gu Lu learned that Zhao Juan chose No. 1 Middle School at the request of her parents.

"I wonder how many junior high school students will go to No. 8 Middle School. There won't be any, right?" Gu Lu sighed. He felt that class monitor Nana, Zhou Lin, and Jia Luo all had a chance.

I opened the Penguin class group and it was quite lively.

There are people jumping around in the group every day, and there are even night owls at two or three in the morning, but no one shares where their school is.

Gu Lu was a screen voyeur. He didn't say anything, but just watched the group chat until it took off...

The flight from Fog City to Ice City is quite far, nearly four hours, so Gu Lu can finally catch up on his sleep.

Han Zang also did not sleep well that night, but he had no chance to make up for his sleep because he was one of the main staff members responsible for receiving the authors.

Han Zang didn't sleep well last night because of the reception work. After all, it was the first time to host such a large event, and he had no experience at all. "Teacher Sanbing, have you boarded the plane? What about Teacher Jinghe?"

"Quick, align the data here."

"Someone, come here. Teacher Mao Sanning has arrived at the airport. Has anyone gone to pick him up? Has anyone gone to pick him up?"

The editorial department of "Years of Reasoning" rented a hotel conference room as a temporary "base", but it was in a mess at the moment.

The editors coming and going all had an expression on their faces that said, "Don't mess with me, or I'll explode."

Mao Sanning is considered one of the magazine's leading writers. He is a rare writer who has joined the Writers Association. He can write both mystery and literary works, which is quite impressive.

In particular, Mao Sanning's detective novels, which are mixed with a lot of fatalism, have been serialized into two long novels and are very popular in Modu.

"If no one goes, then I'll go." Han Zang said. After all, Teacher Mao Sanning cannot be neglected.

"Has Teacher Gu boarded the plane?" Editor-in-Chief Gao suddenly asked.

"I boarded the plane at 9 a.m. and am expected to arrive at 1 p.m.," Han Zang responded.

"You should not go. You should take good care of Teacher Gu," said Editor-in-Chief Gao. "Teacher Gu is still a minor. If something happens to her, we will bear great responsibility."

As the editor-in-chief, it is safer to arrange things.

"DuDu, go pick up Cat Sanning." Editor-in-Chief Gao assigned.

Dudu is the editor Li Du, named after his beer belly. He is a veteran editor of "Years of Reasoning". His decision to pick up Mao Sanning also shows his serious attitude.

Han Zang returned to his seat. He had other things to do, such as arranging the hotel for the writers' dinner.

"Hey, Han Zang." The tall and thin editor Li Nuo asked, "Is Gu Lu, who wrote those things, really a minor?"

"I was also surprised that the darkness of human nature depicted in The Walker on the Ceiling did not seem like it was written by a minor. It was so deep that it seemed like he was looking directly into the abyss."

"Tell me secretly, this isn't a stunt by our magazine, is it?"

"I have the opposite opinion. The writing reflects the author. I feel that the author must be a very sensitive person. It is because of his sensitivity that he can see through people's hearts. It's just that his age is indeed strange."

The topic aroused the curiosity of all the editors present, so much so that even though they were so busy, they still had the mind to inquire about it.

"Not only is he a minor, he's also a high school student." Han Zang gave a positive answer, "Teacher Xiao Gu is a talented writer who is extremely good at imitating. You feel so deeply because the style of these articles is from Liao Zhai. Recently, Teacher Xiao Gu has changed his style and is going to serialize new works. The content is also very exciting."

"Is it as mysterious as you say?" Li Nuo found it hard to believe, and his attitude also indirectly reflected the other editors.

Han Zang said nothing more, because he didn't believe it until he saw the manuscript of the first volume of "Mr. Holmes".

"You'll know once it's published." Han Zang just said this.

In the busy conference room, about another hour passed and Han Zang stood up and prepared to leave. He wanted to go to Bingcheng Taiping Airport in advance to pick up the plane.

To be honest, Han Zang was also curious about what kind of person Gu Lu was, as he had only called Teacher Gu...
