The Witch's Taste

The debate meeting lasted until 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, so the ammunition must be fully stocked, and there must be no shortage of wine and appetizers.

He took the light rail to the nearest station, then walked slowly home.

Gunma District belongs to the old urban area, and most of the houses are small two-story buildings. Compared with Mikawa District, which is full of apartments, it is a little less mercenary in a modern city, and a little more quiet and peaceful in a small county.

Even the nearby Jidao Club is engaged in the monopoly business of tobacco and alcohol, and will not engage in vicious things such as armed fighting-sometimes when bad boys blackmail passers-by, they will go up and drive them away .

In order to get back home as soon as possible, Chen Ziang didn't choose the brightly lit avenue, but took the alley and cut corners as much as possible. He was very familiar with the surrounding terrain.

As a result, just as he was approaching Ligenchuan Road, he was suddenly stopped by two young men who were flamboyant.

The two looked young, but they had a lot of dyed hair, cigarettes and tattoos. It was obvious that they were newcomers who had just entered the industry. They tried their best to put on a fierce expression and said:

"Hey! Uncle, money is tight, borrow some money to buy some cigarettes!"

"Okay, okay." Chen Ziang put down the plastic bag, pretending to take money out of his pocket, but actually intending to show them the holster.

As a result, before he could uncover the hem of his clothes, a mysterious girl appeared in front of him.

The other party was wearing a thick peaked cap, sunglasses and a mask. He couldn't see any facial features at all. The moment he jumped out, he shouted:

"stop!"

This voice is very recognizable... Xia Zili?

Xia Zili's eyes passed through the two young men, and landed on Chen Ziang opposite, and she was startled immediately.

She knew that it was impossible for Chen Ziang to be coerced by these two gangsters, but she was even more afraid that her "hero" identity would be recognized by the other party, so she subconsciously turned sideways to escape, and said in her mouth:

"Haha, just kidding, you guys continue..."

It turned out that next to it was the slanting river dam on Tonegawa Road, and it was also the place where Tsukimiya Suzuna passed by last time and reminded her not to fall down.

At that time, Yue Gong Suzuna did not stumble, but now Xia Zili accidentally stepped on the ground, almost completely lost her balance, stumbled and dived into the river.

Chen Ziang was taken aback, and he didn't care to talk to these gangsters, he rushed down the river dam in two steps, and also jumped into Li Genchuan.

The icy river water hit his body, Chen Ziang swam forward with all his strength, trying to grab Xia Zili's arm who was still struggling.

finally caught...

Then he saw Xia Zili stepping on the water, pulling him to swim to the shore together.

The two climbed up the river bank, Xia Zili was bending over and panting, when she heard Chen Ziang say frantically beside her:

"You can swim?!"

"Sorry." Xia Zili took off the wet mask and wiped the water from her face vigorously.

As for the sunglasses and peaked cap, they had already drifted to nowhere when they fell into the river.

Chen Ziang looked up, and the two gangster youths also ran away - and the two plastic bags he put on the ground, the one containing the wine, were also gone, obviously they were stolen by those two people.

What bad luck...

"Did they take your things?" Xia Zili said apologetically, "I seemed to see it when I was in the river just now."

"It's nothing, just a few bottles of wine." Chen Ziang waved his hand and said, "Forget it."

It would be fine if they were stopped on the spot, but now those two people have disappeared without a trace. Even if they use the relationship of the Public Security Department to find them, let alone a lot of trouble, all they can find are a few empty wine bottles—dozens of dollars. Not worth it either.

"That." Xia Zili seemed a little embarrassed, "It's presumptuous to say that, but can you go to a nearby store and buy hats, sunglasses and masks for me?"

"If I go to buy it by myself, passers-by will definitely recognize me. Afterwards, sister Ji Xiang will scold me..."

Chen Ziang narrowed his eyes, looking at her distressed appearance at this moment.

Indeed, without the cover of the hat, sunglasses and mask, the girl's blond hair, blue eyes, pointed ears and delicate face are almost unmistakable, and the risk of being recognized is very high.

"My house is nearby." Chen Ziang suggested, "Why don't you go to my house to change and wash first, so you don't catch a cold. I'll send a message to your manager first, and ask her to come pick you up as soon as possible?"

"It's fine to go to your house to change the laundry, but tell Sister Ji Xiang that you don't want it." Xia Zili said with a dry smile.

"Sneaked out?" Chen Ziang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Please." Xia Zili clenched her fists in front of her chest, showing a pitiful begging expression, "Don't betray me like last time."

Chen Ziang: ……………

Girl, pay attention to the wording, how can it be called "betrayal"?I informed your guardian to pick you up...

But thinking about it carefully, Xia Zili is still an adult after all, and has the freedom to choose where to stay and what to do, and it is really inappropriate to secretly tell her "parents".

"Anyway, let's go back first." Chen Ziang said while supporting his forehead.

138. Chapter 137 Debate Conference

From here back to the door of the house, although the distance is only about 100 meters, the two walked very hard.

Xia Zili took off her coat, completely wrapped her blond head with pointed ears, then took Chen Ziang's arm, and walked forward unsteadily.

"Are we doing this?" Chen Ziang asked with a wry smile.

"You can't show your face, you will be recognized." Xia Zili insisted.

When you think about it, it's not really a surprise. The reputation of "Kiritani Maki" is really strong, basically she belongs to the kind of national goddess who is well-known to everyone, and everyone like Chen Ziang who is not interested in entertainment news knows her. There must be many neighbors in this neighborhood who know her.

So he could only bite the bullet and lead this hooded idiot home.

Back home, Chen Ziang said:

"Okay, take off your clothes."

"The bathroom is on the first floor, and the slippers are in the cabinet on the right. Just find disposable ones. I'll go up and get my sister's spare clothes for you."

"Thank you." Xia Zili quickly thanked her.

Chen Ziang whispered a few words to Chen Xiaozhu, and seeing that she had no objection, he went upstairs to her bedroom and looked for some clothes and pants that he didn't usually wear.

As for the underwear, I didn't take it. On the one hand, it's not easy to borrow the private clothes belonging to my sister. On the other hand, I'm afraid that the girl will be shy. Anyway, it's enough to cover up my body so that Xia Zili can wear it and take a taxi home.

He took his clothes and went downstairs, and said through the bathroom door, "The clothes are on the floor for you", Chen Ziang turned around and went to the kitchen, intending to heat up the food brought back from the staff canteen.

"Do you have a hair dryer?" Xia Zili called from behind.

"In the mirror cabinet in the toilet!" Chen Ziang replied.

By the time he heated up the food and brought it to the table, Xia Zili had already showered, dried her hair, put on clean clothes and came out.

Because I always sit for a long time, my sister's clothes are mostly made of soft materials.At this time, Xia Zili was wearing a long silk skirt, which seemed to fit her body quite well; she was wearing a white T-shirt, which was obviously a bit small for her—not to mention other parts, just the armpits. The block is so tight that the wrinkles in the clothes are pulled out.

"Sorry, I'll find you a bigger one." Chen Ziang said with a wry smile.

"Excuse me, can I borrow a piece of underwear?" Xia Zili clasped her arms tightly, her cheeks and neck flushed with embarrassment, "Or just give me two band-aids."

Looking at her posture, Chen Ziang knew where the problem was, and said quickly:

"wait for me a bit."

Going back to the room, I found a looser T-shirt (I didn't choose a shirt because I was afraid the quality of the buttons would be bad), and spare underwear that my sister hadn't worn. Chen Ziang hurried downstairs again and handed the clothes to Xia Zili.

When he helped Chen Xiaozhu to the edge of the dining table, he saw Xia Zili come out of the bathroom again.

This time the T-shirt is already the biggest among all my sister's clothes, but it still looks a bit tight when she wears it... Fortunately, Xiaozhu can't see it, otherwise her self-esteem must be damaged.

"It smells so good." Xia Zili looked at the food on the table and subconsciously said something.

Then her stomach rumbled.

"If you don't mind, sit down and eat together." Chen Ziang invited.

This sentence is not polite.He had originally bought a few more dishes to serve with wine, but at this time the beer was gone, and he probably couldn't finish the accompanying rice, so he just used it to entertain guests.

"How embarrassing..." Xia Zili was still reserved, but her stomach obviously refused to listen to her, so she insisted on screaming a few more times.

"Sit down, sit down." Chen Ziang tried his best not to laugh, and brought her another bowl of rice.

The side dishes he bought in the staff canteen are mainly braised meat and fried food, which go well with wine and are also excellent with rice.

Xia Zili picked up a few chopsticks, first she frowned, obviously satisfied with the taste, but soon realized something, and said with a smile:

"Thanks for the hospitality, it was delicious."

"You're welcome." Chen Ziang was busy feeding Chen Xiaozhu.

"My etiquette should be right?" Xia Zili asked cautiously.

"No problem, but it's the etiquette of the island people." Chen Ziang explained, "I don't care about it in my family."

"Oh." Xia Zili lowered her head, sipping rice.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Ziang went to get the remote control again, and turned on the TV to watch the debate.

"Speaking of which, why did you appear there today?" He asked casually.

"Uh, I happened to be passing by." Xia Zili said with a guilty conscience, "I saw you being blackmailed by unscrupulous young people, so I stood up and stopped it."

"That's quite a coincidence." Chen Ziang asked uncertainly, "I remember you live in Sanhe District?"

"It's in Sanhe District." Xia Zili continued to explain, "I came here to check out my records. How are the sales at the video store in Gunma District?"

It can't be said that the mother's soul is helping me become a superhero and guiding me to come here... That's too weird.

"The sales should be very good." Chen Ziang said with a smile, "After all, you are the goddess of the nation."

"That's just a selection." Xia Zili was a little embarrassed, and in order to change the subject as soon as possible, she also turned her gaze to the TV screen, "Is that a variety show?"

"No, the debate conference."

"What is a debate meeting?"

"It's just that the mid-term elections are coming soon, and the Congress will be re-elected, so that the congressmen who are running for elections will show their faces on stage." Chen Ziang said cheerfully.

"It feels a bit like the variety shows I've been on." Xia Zili commented.

"No, no, no." Chen Ziang corrected her, "This is much funnier than a variety show."

He turned up the volume of the TV, and saw that the two sides had finished their explanations on the first topic of debate, "how to revitalize the national economy", and entered the stage of mutual debate.

DPP member Hatai Shimabukuro, nicknamed "Cannon", took the lead in the shelling session:

"I would like to ask the opposite congressman: The political proposition you just mentioned is to use industrial transformation to avoid the negative impact of mineral depletion. As far as I know, Shi Bern has been doing this when he was in office, but so far, high-tech manufacturing The export of the industry has not improved at all."

"Does this mean that your political proposition has been proven useless by reality?"

"Ahem." The MP from the British Party on the opposite side explained, "I have already emphasized that industrial transformation is a long process that requires our unremitting efforts..."

"If you were in a company," Shimabukuro Hatahei interrupted, "you have worked so far without any results and still asked the company for more time, I'm afraid the boss would have told you to get out."

"It's inappropriate to use a business analogy." The member of the British Party on the opposite side frowned and said, "The transformation of high-tech manufacturing is a policy left by Mr. Shi Jintang. Are you going to question Mr. Shi Jintang's decision-making?"

"So you can only pick up people's ideas, don't you have any ideas of your own?" Shimabukuro Bantai said contemptuously, "If the second governor is not Mr. Shi Jintang, but your Excellency who doesn't know how to adapt, I'm afraid we are still living in Shi Zhiqing's military control period. Woolen cloth."

In front of the TV, Xia Zili stared blankly, and asked puzzledly:

"Isn't it a political debate? Why do they always mention 'Mr. Shi Jintang'?"

"That's right." Chen Ziang explained patiently, "Because Shi Jintang led the democratic reform and the Star Trade Agreement, he has a high prestige among the common people."

"So on TV shows, the British Party usually actively moves out of Shi Jintang to gain the favor of voters."

"In contrast, Shi Zhiqing's military management and mining plans are not so popular, so the Democratic First Party must work hard to blame Shi Zhiqing, so that voters' perception of the British Party will be worse."

"So every time there is a debate between the two parties, the British Party basically talks about 'Shi Jintang', and the Democratic Pioneer Party talks about 'Shi Zhiqing'. Netizens call this 'son vs. father'."

"That's it." Xia Zili couldn't help being amused when she heard the back, "But it's weird, isn't it?"

"I mean, I originally thought that the criteria for whether the people voted for a congressman was based on his political views and political commitments, didn't he? But from what you said, it seems that voters vote for whichever side they like more ?”

Chen Ziang fell silent, and after a while he shrugged and said:

"Yes, this is democracy."

139. Chapter 138 Crossing the line!

After Xia Zili finished her meal, she consciously went to the kitchen to clean the dishes, then went back to the living room and sat on the sofa, and the two of them watched TV together.

Her posture was so natural that Chen Ziang almost had an illusion, as if the other party was not a new friend who had only met two or three times, but an acquaintance whom she had known for a long time.

"By the way." Chen Ziang pretended to be casual and asked, "Aren't you working tonight?"
