Chapter 14 14 Meeting Comrades ①

*

"Walking around, wandering around, I won't worry if I don't learn or have skills~"

"If you don't tell the truth when you meet people, you'll just rely on your rotten tongue~"

"I'm the best at cheating, I'm the best, I'm the best!"

Humming a limerick he learned from watching cartoons when he was a child, Li Guanqi pushed a small cart and walked in the lively market. While looking around for the goods on the stalls, he thought about the next purchase order.

arrange.

One hundred and fifty-two gold coins may be said to be too much or too little, but considering the need to take care of the entire country's population, it is definitely far from enough.

But there is nothing Li Guanqi can do. Since this is the limit of what she can do at present, she does not think about the things she needs to worry about in the future.

So, first is the most basic firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea...

Li Guanqi was busy shopping around, asking about prices with her boss, and planning to make a big purchase when she suddenly heard a person speaking the southern Hakka dialect of a flower grower, shouting her name loudly behind her.

"No. (Li) - Gong (Guan) starts (chess)! - Gong (Guan) starts (chess)! - No. (Li) - Gong (Guan) starts (chess)!"

Li Guanqi: "??"

Li Guanqi was stunned subconsciously. Because he was in a foreign country and was called by his name in the street, his mind was a little confused for a while.

Even though the person didn't speak a dialect from the northeastern region of her hometown, but an accent from the south, there was a sense of homesickness that prompted her to turn around quickly and quickly to find the source of the sound.

"Hey - (hey)!! Cover (this) - drop (in)! Mo (look) cover (this) side (side) ah (ah)!!! Hey (I) cover (here)

)Eh(ri)le(le)!!”

Maybe it’s because the summer evening is approaching and people go out to buy food and go home to cook. At this time, people are coming and going in the market. Li Guanqi cannot accurately locate the source of the sound in the first place through the sea of ​​people, but just now

I squinted my eyes to look for someone, but my vision blurred, and the next second I was tapped on the shoulder.

Li Guanqi: "?!!"

Someone: "Cover (this) side (side) Le (le), cover (this) side (side)."

Li Guanqi turned her head, and this time she finally saw the person coming - a pretty girl with a high ponytail and a slightly heroic air.

*

*The following dialects are automatically translated into Mandarin*

*

Black hair, dark eyes, yellow skin.

The girl who stopped Li Guanqi was wearing clothes of the same style as Li Guanqi, but slightly different colors.

However, compared to Li Guanqi's neat attire, the zipper of the visitor's clothes was wide open and his arms were exposed. He even had one of his trouser legs rolled up separately, which made him look a bit rough indeed.

In addition, there is a row of words specially written on the collar - "Be brave enough to admit your mistakes and never regret it."

Well, with a slim golden body...what a good guy, he is still a rebellious boy!

For a moment, Li Guanqi was speechless, staring at the person who came, his expression changing from disbelief to overjoyed, and then from overjoyed to unbelievable.

"...WTF →?"

Li Guanqi was so shocked that he almost jumped up!

"Fuck!"

The two-syllable Chinese character is the essence of China, mixed with a little Northeastern accent.

The girl was amused by Li Guanqi's funny reaction, so she raised her eyes and grinned, showing her teeth.

"Ji Ye, from Jiangxi." She extended her hand to Li Guanqi, "I am seventeen years old this year."

"Ah, oh... Li Guanqi, from the Northeast." Li Guanqi paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to hold it in a daze, "I'm eighteen, this year..."

At that moment, two pairs of slightly immature hands held each other, and the warmth began to transfer.

Damn...it's alive.

Li Guanqi's complicated mood was mixed with excitement.

She tried her best to control her expression so that her facial features did not look so unmanageable, but what was happening now was really hard for her not to say "This really shocked my whole family"

"face the visitor with an expression.

"Are you the same...wait, don't say it yet."

The question he wanted to ask most at the moment almost blurted out, but at the critical moment Li Guanqi came back to his senses and carefully stopped the topic.

"I know, there are so many people and so many eyes. Let's talk somewhere else."

Ji Ye patted Li Guanqi's shoulder in a comforting manner, then stretched out his hand and naturally took the wooden handle of the small cart from Li Guanqi's hand.

"Let's go, Comrade Li Guanqi." Ji Ye walked in front, turned his head and looked at Li Guanqi, put away his smile, and asked calmly.

"Together?"

"Um."

Without any hesitation, Li Guanqi responded in a muffled voice. She nodded her head heavily, then firmly raised her steps and walked up to stand beside him, and responded with the same calmness.

"Together."

The new characters who appeared on the screen looked like compatriots from Li Guanqi's hometown. This surprised the ordinary people and also caused headaches for the people in the World Government.

Ever since Li Guanqi "showed off his power" in the casino, those so-called royal aristocrats had been pent-up and had nowhere to vent their anger.

And many innocent people, ah, no, slaves, died tragically because of this, and more than one batch was replaced.

Until the death of the pirate, the anger in the hearts of the nobles also increased with the unsatisfactory plot on the screen, especially now that the damn untouchable seems to have one more person, the angry volcano

It went straight to the critical point and exploded.

"A bunch of freeloaders! It's been so long, haven't they been found yet?!!"

The middle-aged man, whose face was red from excessive drinking, waved his thick arms excitedly and roared angrily at the World Government's phone bug.

"I can't believe it! How long has it been!? From the time the video started playing on the screen, my family has been taking money out of your pockets that you will never make in your life to help your 'dog' find

That damn pariah on the screen! But even if I pay a lot of money, I always get meaningless answers like no one can be found!!"

"And now, there is one more damn untouchable, and you are still helpless! No progress!!"

"You guys are trash! Scum! Useless things..."

The bitter and mean insults lasted for a full hour, and their voices were so loud and sharp that even after the phone was hung up, it seemed that the middle-aged man's rude roar could still be heard in the conference room.

"Well...anyway, that's what happened."

The senior official sitting at the head of the conference table looked so gloomy that he could shed tears, "We still have to keep looking for him, but the emotions of the nobles also need to be calmed as much as possible."

"Ask people from the navy to come and help. Even if they can't be found, issue a wanted order, raise the reward as much as possible, label him as evil, and then inform the world."

"As for the nobles... find a few scapegoats with similar looks and send them there. Although it may not completely eliminate the anger of the nobles, it can calm it down to some extent..."

…

……calm?

Ha... Calm down.

Time outside the screen has never stopped, and time on the screen is still passing bit by bit.

Temporarily putting aside his current plan to buy supplies, Li Guanqi followed Ji Ye to find a quiet alley. The two faced each other, one squatting on the stone on the platform, and the other sitting on the cart under the steps.

Because we were separated from the hustle and bustle of the market by a street, the alley seemed a little quiet for a while.

Li Guanqi is confused and nervous now.

Although she had a lot to say in her stomach before, she was now silent. She just stared at Ji Ye who was squatting on the steps, her eyes filled with anticipation mixed with a little uneasiness and fear.

Four busy days, two frightening nights, and a tragic death.

At this time last time, when Li Guanqi was waiting for death in the trash can with missing arms and legs, she vaguely thought that the two-meter-long machete had cut away her innocence and hesitation as a high school student.

At this time, when Li Guanqi shot the man's arms, legs and eyes to collect debts, she calmly thought that those six cold bullets had taken away her gentleness and morality as a common person.

Some things were snatched away, and some things were thrown away. And those things that were gone will never belong to her who was killed and also killed others.

In fact, Li Guanqi still looks forward to going home, but he never dares to look forward to the days after returning home after experiencing such a thing.

Because she knew that there would be no comfort anymore.

Ji Ye: "…………"

Li Guanqi's eyes made Ji Ye feel uncomfortable in his chest.

Faced with such a look, Ji Ye was rarely silent, but considering that she was here because she had an important mission, she was just stunned for two seconds, then took a deep breath and said with

While looking at her with extremely firm eyes, she carefully took Li Guanqi's hand and carefully and solemnly gave the reply that she came here.

"Comrade Li Guanqi, I was sent here by Rabbit to take you home."

Li Guanqi: “…………”

Fuck...Mom is here to pick me up...

At that moment, the days after returning home may no longer be so important to Li Guanqi.

Because at least for now, homesickness no longer scares her.
