urban fascination

Chapter 701: Close to the bright moon in my hometown

This city where Zhihao and Rouyu once lived was the end point of Zhihao and Rouyu's return to the east, and now, they have finally returned to this city.

When it comes to the word "finally", it is a bit far-fetched. If Zhihao and Rouyu hurried on the road from dawn to dusk, I believe they would have returned to this city two days ago.Not in a hurry, not in a hurry at all, quite relaxed, as if I am here for a pleasant trip, during the trip, and at the same time on my honeymoon.

But when approaching here, Rouyu still showed uneasiness, and the uneasiness was not because she felt that the danger was approaching.

Returning to revenge is a dangerous thing in itself, and the danger is naturally not to mention.With Zhihao by her side, of course Rouyu will not take the danger to heart. Rouyu's anxiety lies in the fact that she will face all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. What will the road ahead be like?

No idea, even Zhihao has no idea, but Zhihao is much calmer than Rouyu, otherwise, why would you want a man by your side at a critical moment?It is a backer and a tranquilizer.

This day happened to be the Lantern Festival. I don’t know if the timing was accurate, or it was a coincidence of stop and go. It was just in the afternoon, when the sun was westward, and the black Audi was heading east on the highway outside the city. slow down.

The sand and dust weather of the previous two days has long passed, perhaps it has traveled thousands of miles and left the sand and dust weather behind. Here, the wind is calm and the sea is calm. Rouyu can see the treetops on both sides of the highway, although there is no trace of green , but motionless, like waiting quietly in early spring, quietly waiting for the coming of spring?

There is no wind, and it may not be sunny. Since the morning, the sky has been gloomy. After walking hundreds of kilometers, it is still cloudy. The sun only occasionally reflects a little dark yellow light in the thin clouds, and then hides again , does not affect visibility, but it is by no means bright enough to make people feel cheerful.

Zhihao gently shook Rouyu's hand, "Yu'er, relax, it's nothing, I'm by your side?"

Rouyu nodded, calmed down a lot, and said in a low voice, "Yu'er is not nervous, but, there is some inexplicable excitement, and hope, no matter what, we are back."

"We're back, we're back at last." Zhihao nodded, and his calm tone gradually revealed a firmness. Inadvertently, Rouyu felt the murderous look on Zhihao's face, "If you come back safe and sound, you can't Let it be safe here!"

The last service area.

In the past, in this service area, you could get off the expressway not far away, and when you got off the expressway, the city was right in front of you.

Rouyu said in a low voice, "Go into the service area and rest for a while, okay?"

Zhihao nodded, slowed down, and turned right.

Snowflakes are falling one after another, maybe this is the last snow in the new year.In the city, colorful lights are hung high, and snowflakes are flying. In response to the folk custom, the lanterns are lit by snow during the Yunxiao Festival.

Perhaps, a year ago, for a trip like this, Rouyu should have urged Zhihao to hurry up so that he could go back to the city to watch the lantern show and fireworks?Rouyu, quietly standing by the car, with a calm face, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar city, where there is its own joy, its own sorrow, and new hope.

Zhihao stood beside Rouyu, silent, staring intently, his eyes slowly falling back to Rouyu.The dark clothes lack the bright youthful vigor, but they are a different kind of beauty, charming in the quiet, charming in the simple.

Zhihao gently held Rouyu in his arms, the snow seemed to be getting bigger, the fine powder of snow gradually turned into snowflakes, there was no wind, no flying, it just fell lightly, floating gently on the ground , and slowly melted away.

Perhaps, this kind of snow can accumulate a lot on the ground in one night.

The two looked at each other for a long time before Rouyu said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Seeing Rouyu's weak face, Zhihao became a little firmer.

When entering the urban area, it was already dark, Zhihao drove slowly, gently shook Rouyu's hand, and comforted again, "Yu'er, I'll just come back for my honeymoon."

Rouyu nodded.

Zhihao knows that the so-called gangs today are very different from what they were a hundred years ago.

The gang at that time, to survive in the troubled times, must have a huge influence, many brothers, and use force to decide everything.Strict gang rules, separate boundaries, constant fighting, the police have nothing to do with them, or they are simply a family of police and robbers.Today's gangs are completely different. Relying on industry, forces that are completely hidden underground, whether familial or physical, only appear when force is needed to solve problems.The only scary thing is that they colluded with government officials and infiltrated all aspects. They did what they did to make money, and whenever there was any disturbance, they were all hidden among the public, no different from ordinary residents, or fled.

After all, the world is governed now, not chaotic. Even if they pass through their territory, what is there to be afraid of?If the division of forces was really as strict as in the past, then Zhihao could only lead Rouyu to move within the territory of the Azure Dragon Society before the Azure Dragon Society was destroyed, and he would never dare to take half a step.

The familiar city, even the plants and trees on the street, looked so friendly, if he hadn't come back in such a mood, Zhihao really wanted to stop the car and lead Rouyu to stroll around the street.

Colored lanterns have been hung up on both sides of the street. The colorful lanterns in various shapes on the square have already been brightly lit up. The joy of the festival does not belong to Zhihao and Rouyu, although the street is already bustling with traffic. , the walking path is full of beaming people.

Rouyu, without looking to either side, stared straight ahead, Zhihao said in a low voice, "Let's find a place to live first."

Zhihao found a remote hotel on the outskirts of the city and parked his car in the yard.This is not the industry of the ### gang, and it should not be the site of the ### gang.

Along the way, there was a little unhappiness with the suitcase. When going upstairs, Rouyu asked Zhihao in a low voice, "Have you brought the suitcase to the room?"

"No, it's safer to put it in the car, there is an anti-theft alarm." Zhihao said softly, "Just bring your small bag with you."

When I returned to my hometown and lived there, I should have settled down.Zhihao feels uncomfortable for no reason, because he had his own home here, and that home is believed to be still vacant, no one has lived in it, and no one has touched it.The key is in Rouyu's small bag, but now I can't open the door easily, I need patience, and patience always makes people feel aggrieved.

The grade of the hotel is not low, and the conditions are good. It is a warm couple room. When Rouyu was sitting comfortably on the bunk, Zhihao observed behind the curtain for a long time. He had already entered the city. Zhihao became alert and could not relax for a moment. .

After making sure nothing happened, Zhihao closed the curtains, "Yu'er, wash up, let's go eat."

After the meal, Rouyu hurriedly dragged Zhihao back to the room, locked the door and sat on the bunk.Zhihao smiled slightly, "Tonight is the Lantern Festival, I want to take Yu'er out to watch flowers and lanterns."

Rouyu looked at Zhihao in a daze, this was not Zhihao's usual style.

Zhihao patted Rouyu's face, "Yu'er, you are very well-behaved and sensible, I am very satisfied."

"Yu'er can't cause trouble for you, if the people from ### recognize us, we will be in trouble."

"It means that Yu'er wants to go out and have a look." Zhihao laughed, "Let's go, with me here, even if the people from the ### gang recognize it, so what?"

Rouyu muttered softly, "It's better not to let them recognize it."

"That's it." Zhihao thought for a while, "You still wear this dark clothes and hat, and I still wear this kind of clothes, which is not conspicuous, and also, I wear sunglasses. This way, others will not recognize it easily. We are."

"Yeah." Rouyu nodded, then smiled again, "You, wearing sunglasses today, are you Luku, or are you acting differently?"

Zhihao smiled, "Then, just lower the hat."

In such a situation, it is also a kind of courage to maintain such a state of mind while looking at the flowers and lanterns calmly.

Zhihao led Rouyu and stood by the flower pond in the square, admiring the lanterns from afar.Even if Zhihao believes that no one can bring them harm, after all, he has returned to this city, showing courage does not mean taking risks, and the scene of being chased and killed is vivid in his mind, not to mention that he is surrounded by the object of his protection, Zhihao naturally dare not be careless .

The most dangerous place is the safest place, it is just a coincidence, the risk can only be taken once, it will not work if there are too many times, Zhihao deeply understands this truth.

There were not many people here, Zhihao still observed the surroundings in a cold manner, and found nothing, Zhihao slowly felt relieved.

Rouyu neither showed the joy of the festival, nor was her mood affected by the subconscious pressure. She just watched the lights quietly, without going up to appreciate them one by one. She also felt the festive atmosphere. The colorful lights seemed to have aroused So many good childhood memories.

Rouyu's feeling made Zhihao happy, and Zhihao also looked at the lantern happily.

Suddenly, Zhihao felt a hand on his shoulder silently...
