Fire Captain

Chapter 50 Ode to Joy 06

After Bai Ziyang was discharged from the hospital, he discussed with Fan Shengmei and submitted an application to the leader, requesting a temporary transfer from the special forces. After comprehensive consideration, the leader seconded Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei to the armed police force of the Shanghai Military Region for a temporary period of one year, responsible for the training of the armed police, and the work was neither light nor heavy. Fan Shengmei took office first, and Bai Ziyang could recover from his injury first and take office later.

The two moved to Shanghai to settle down temporarily. Bai Ziyang has a house in Shanghai, which he bought. It is not big, about 90 square meters. As for the money, it was also luck. At the beginning, Bai Ziyang's good buddy studied financial management in college and worked hard in Shanghai after graduation. In order to help his buddy, Bai Ziyang gave all his savings to his buddy. Maybe this buddy is really a financial genius. With accurate investment and unique vision, he gradually established himself in Shanghai, and Bai Ziyang's money increased tenfold, tenfold, and a hundredfold. Later, Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei spent less on various allowances and bonuses, and gave all to him except for a part of them. Later, Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei didn't know how much money they had. When this buddy told them, they were dumbfounded.

After listening to his advice, I took out part of the money to buy a house as an investment, and the rest continued to compound interest. The house is located in 2202 of the Song of Joy community. I heard from this buddy that 2203 is shared by two young girls. 2201 and 2204 have been sold but no one lives there either. It was originally quite quiet, but when Bai Ziyang's 2202 was being renovated, 2201 and 2204 also started to be renovated. It seems that they are about to move in. The noise from the three renovations almost drove the residents of 2203 in the middle crazy.

"Shengmei, let me take it." Bai Ziyang chased Fan Shengmei out of the elevator.

Fan Shengmei walked out of the elevator without looking back and said, "Oh, no, it's not that heavy anyway." Well, more than 100 pounds is not that heavy...

They were approved a month's leave by their superiors. The handover and farewell within the team, plus Bai Ziyang's recovery took half a month, so there was only half a month left. So the two of them moved to Ode to Joy as soon as they had free time. Although they had seen it when it was renovated, they still needed to buy some things for their future life.

Fan Shengmei thought that although Bai Ziyang seemed to be able to walk and jump now, he must still be weak as he had suffered such serious injuries at the time. She didn't let him carry anything during the move and just carried two large boxes by herself. Her image as a tomboy was obvious. Bai Ziyang was lucky that there was no one around him, otherwise he would be walking behind with empty hands while a woman walked in front carrying two large boxes, telling him not to get tired as they walked... Oh my God, let him die.

"Open the door!" Fan Shengmei stopped and gestured to Bai Ziyang, as both her hands were occupied.

When Bai Ziyang was looking for the key, the security door of 2203 next to him suddenly opened, and two little girls walked out.

Fan Shengmei happened to be standing in front of the two people's door. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "Hello!"

The two little girls seemed a little reserved when meeting strangers, and they smiled and said, "Hello."

Seeing Bai Ziyang still looking for the key, Fan Shengmei put down her gift and said, "We are new neighbors. My name is Fan Shengmei and you can call me Sister Fan. This is my husband, Bai Ziyang, you can call him Brother Bai... Of course, you can call him brother-in-law, too."

The two little girls said together: "Hello Sister Fan, uh...brother-in-law?"

Bai Ziyang looked up and smiled at the two of them despite his busy schedule.

The little girl was so lively that she couldn't hold back her words. She said, "Sister Fan, my name is Qiu Yingying, and her name is Guan Juer. We rent room 2203 together."

Fan Shengmei has been in the army for more than ten years, and all she has seen are rough men and female warriors. This is the first time she has seen two cute and well-behaved little girls. Her old aunt’s girlish heart is gone... She immediately waved her big hand and embraced the two little girls and said, "It's not easy for you two little sisters to go out. If you have any problems, tell me. If you need to change a light bulb or fix a sewer, ask your brother-in-law. We will be neighbors in the future. It's fate. Don't be polite to me."

Bai Ziyang clutched the key he had finally found, thinking to himself: Well, I am your heart and your liver, and you were afraid that I would get tired just now, but now you can throw me out to clear the sewer?

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer didn't know why they naturally felt very close to Fan Shengmei, and they happily said after hearing her words: "Sister Fan, you are so nice."

Fan Shengmei recalled and asked, "Were you going out just now?"

Guan Juer said: "Well, we were going out to eat."

Qiu Yingying said, "Yes, Sister Fan, do you want to go with us?"

Fan Shengmei said, "I won't go. You guys go quickly. We still need to clean up the house when we go in."

After saying goodbye to the two children, Bai Ziyang opened the door and looked at Fan Shengmei and said, "I thought you forgot that there is a living person here."

Fan Shengmei deliberately said: "Oh, don't mention it, I really forgot about it."

The house was quite clean and didn't require much cleaning. The main thing was to unfold and put away the couple's luggage. Fortunately, they were both quick and nimble and quickly put everything in order. They ordered some takeout, and after dinner, Fan Shengmei told Bai Ziyang to go and rest.

Bai Ziyang was lying on the bed, and he pulled Fan Shengmei, who was standing beside the bed, onto the bed and shouted, "Wife~~~"

Fan Shengmei said helplessly: "Hey, what are you doing!"

Bai Ziyang said: "Go to sleep! Didn't you want me to have a good rest..."

Fan Shengmei said: "Bai Ziyang, I'm warning you, don't give me that in broad daylight..."

Bai Ziyang pressed on Fan Shengmei and said in a rude manner: "What's wrong in broad daylight? Wife, I am working here with a license!"

Fan Shengmei got up twice but was held down by Bai Ziyang. She couldn't help but said angrily, "Get out of the way. I have to go to the kitchen. When we were eating just now, I found that there were no chopsticks or bowls. I have to make a list and go to the supermarket tomorrow..."

Seeing that Fan Shengmei had no "alertness" at all and was still chattering on her own, Bai Ziyang pushed her down and blocked her mouth. She was so familiar with him that she didn't even take him seriously...

The two of them fooled around for the whole afternoon and ordered takeout for dinner. Little did they know that the two girls next door were talking about them.

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer were eating the chocolates that Qu Xiaoxiao, the neighbor from Room 2204, had just brought to them and suddenly started talking. "Guan Guan, you said that we have already seen two of the three neighbors. I wonder who is living in Room 2201?"

Guan Juer shook her head and said, "Well... I don't know, but you see there is a camera at the door of 2201, but I don't know who they are guarding against?"

Qiu Yingying said: "Although Qu Xiaoxiao's box of chocolates won me over, I don't know why I still like Sister Fan next door. Sister Fan is so handsome!"

Guan Juer nodded and said, "Well, Sister Fan has a special temperament!"

Qiu Yingying was busy eating chocolate. She looked up and said, "Temperament? What temperament?"

Guan Juer said: "I can't really explain it, but Sister Fan and her husband are definitely not ordinary people. The feeling I get from them... the feeling... I can't really describe it."

Qiu Yingying stuffed her mouth with chocolate and said, "If you can't explain it, don't say it. Just eat it quickly... It's really a master-level chocolate. It's delicious..."

"Hmm!" Guan Juer also ate the chocolate with her eyes squinted happily.

In fact, Guan Juer's feeling was correct. Her parents worked in the government and the banking sector. Although they were far away from military personnel like Fan Shengmei, she had occasionally seen similar people. Although Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang had also learned how to be ordinary people, their eyes, posture, and even walking were strictly trained. Moreover, after so many years of gunfire and blood, Guan Juer's ordinary eyesight naturally could not see it, but such a simple-minded, careful and sensitive person could feel it.

At night, Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei, who were sleeping soundly, were suddenly awakened by a loud noise. Both of them were light sleepers and would wake up at the slightest noise.

Fan Shengmei frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Bai Ziyang listened carefully and said, "It seems like 2204 is having a party."

Fan Shengmei fell back on the bed and wailed, "Oh my God..."

Bai Ziyang said: "How about I go and talk to them?"

Fan Shengmei stood up and said, "Forget it. I can't fall asleep anyway after sleeping too much in the afternoon. It's a good time to clean up the house."

Fan Shengmei was cleaning the house while listening to music. After a while, she heard the music stop and there was a bang on the door. She opened the door and looked... nothing. She looked down and this time she saw a child standing at the door with a sour face.

Fan Shengmei found it funny and asked, "Who are you...?" She looked around and saw a group of young people she didn't know. Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer from next door were standing at the door of 2203.

The "kid" rolled his eyes and said, "I'm Qu Xiaoxiao from Room 2204. Did you call the police?"

Bai Ziyang poked his head out from behind Fan Shengmei, put his chin on her shoulder and said, "Do you need to call the police for such a small matter? I'm going to turn off the power in your house later."

Seeing Qu Xiaoxiao glaring with anger, Fan Shengmei quickly said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he was joking. We were not the ones who called the police, so what's wrong?"

Qu Xiaoxiao said suspiciously: "You didn't call the police? Then who else could it be?"

"I called the police!"

The door of room 2201 next to Fan Shengmei suddenly opened, and a beautiful woman with a strong aura walked out. She walked directly to Qu Xiaoxiao and said, "I called the police."

Qu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who are you?"

The visitor said, "You don't need to know who I am. You only need to know that I am the owner of 2201. I have checked the noise nuisance standards in Shanghai, China. From : p.m. to a.m. the next day, anything over decibels is considered a nuisance. If it exceeds decibels late at night, it constitutes a nuisance. It's already a.m. now. I used the decibel software that comes with my iPhone to test the music in your room and it's over decibels. It's reasonable for me to call the police. Of course, if you have any objections, you can also contact my lawyer to sue me at any time! I need to sleep and don't want to repeat it again! If it happens again next time, I won't wait minutes before calling the police like I did today. I will call the police immediately and claim compensation from you." After saying that, he turned and left.

Everyone else was stunned by her words, and there was no sound for a long time. Finally, Bai Ziyang sighed, "Cool... I wave my sleeves and I won't take away a cloud." Everyone subconsciously looked at Bai Ziyang, and Fan Shengmei elbowed him backwards. Bai Ziyang groaned, turned around and left with a bitter face.

Fan Shengmei smiled and said, "Okay, now that we've figured it out, let's all go." Then she closed the door.
