The gravel road section finally ended, and the car drove onto the flat concrete road.

He Rongsheng was also shocked by Lou Yue's unusually gentle tone just now, and suddenly heard Captain Lou say: "I forgot to ask for advice, Police Officer He, corpses are mostly used for resurrection, and patient A's condition may be based on some other superstitions." It’s more appropriate to say it, but unfortunately I don’t quite understand it.”

The tone returned to the original indifference, as if the softness just now was all in vain.He Rongsheng was still thinking about this little eccentricity, when Ran Yu asked: "Then that Yuan Qiong you mentioned, would he be willing to tell me these things?"

"He'll say it if he thinks you're a good match." Lou Yue said, "When you two pass by, Xiang Fu and I won't go. He's bothering me."

It started again.This time He Rongsheng accurately captured the strangeness.He found that when Lou Yue talked to other people, although he was still polite, he was mostly cold and even a little arrogant, but when he talked to Ran Yu, there were always some subtle differences.It seems that the sense of distance is less, with some imperceptible desire to get closer.

But how is this possible?They didn't know each other before - and neither of them seemed to notice it.

After the car stopped on the side of the road, when He Rongsheng and Ran Yu got out of the car together, they were still thinking hard.

He tugged at Ran Yu's sleeve and asked, "Have you seen that Captain Lou before?"

"I've seen it before," Ran Yu said frankly, "I told you that one night after the exam, I was sleepwalking and he sent me back."

"Ah... aren't you kidding me?" He Rongcheng asked in surprise.

After Ran Yu and He Rongsheng got out of the car, Lou Yue leaned on the back of the seat and watched them pass the intersection through the car window.

Xiang An Xiang, the background board driver who had been silent all this time, couldn't help asking cautiously: "Captain Lou, is there anything special about that rookie? Why did you pick him at first glance?"

"Oh, I think he's kind of like a friend."

But you have no friends.Xiang An Xiang thought so, but he never dared to say it, and just accepted this explanation silently.

While talking, Ran Yu and the two had already passed the intersection of Baihua Road and Ginkgo Road.Turn left at the intersection for a few steps and you will see several narrow alleys, one of which is surrounded by three or four people arguing with each other.

One of the people standing spoke fiercely, pointing to the sky and the earth, and made a gesture that all the major events in the world are in the palm of his hand.Because he was emotional and speaking too fast, Ran Yu couldn't hear what he was saying. He could only roughly guess that this person was questioning the homeless man sitting on the ground. The main city has been absolutely safe for more than 50 years, and human development is progressing. Fully recovered, has long been away from the shadow of the end of the world.Why does a little tramp assert that the doomsday crisis will reappear, and why disturb people's hearts.

The homeless man sitting on the ground has disheveled hair and looks about 40 to [-] years old. He is wearing a tattered sack and is half leaning against the wall.The place where he sits is very convenient. There is half a foot of eaves on his head to shield his body from the sun. Under his buttocks are two discarded tires welded to the ground. Next to it is a window sill, which he can reach with just raising his hand. The enamel cup on the stage avoids the embarrassment of accidentally kicking the cup down on the ground.

Surrounded and accused like this, the homeless man didn't panic at all, he just stretched his body, reached for the glass on the window sill, and drank the last sip of rice wine.

He turned the cup upside down and shook it, licked his chapped lips, and did not answer the man's question directly, but said: "Our main city of Aibo was built hundreds of kilometers near the ruins of the Guge Dynasty. It was a dynasty that disappeared overnight, and people would never be warned before the danger came. As for whether this young main city will disappear overnight like fate, I also want to know."

He smelled the scent of rice wine remaining in the cup with regret, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Maybe we will all be a new batch of people who have witnessed the demise of another glorious history of mankind. Interesting, hahaha, interesting."

The person standing still wanted to speak, but the homeless man raised his finger and tapped the enamel cup and said, "The wine is gone, so I won't accompany you. Can you refill the glass?"

"...I'm really crazy to waste time and money with you here!" After saying that, the few people pushed and shoved away, still muttering all the way, firmly convinced that they were right.

Ran Yu and He Rongcheng took a few steps forward. Before they could speak, the homeless man raised the enamel cup to them and said, "Ask a question? Rules."

The two were taken aback for a moment, but fortunately He Rongsheng reacted quickly, and quickly bent over and asked, "Is the rule here is to ask questions when you buy wine?"

The homeless man raised his chin and raised his legs arrogantly: "It depends on my mood."

"Then how are you feeling now?"

The homeless man looked up at the sky that was turning from sunny to cloudy. The sun had long since disappeared, and large thick clouds piled up into mountains, pressing heavily on a position not far above his head.

"not bad."

"Then I'm going to buy wine. Let's talk first. Where can I buy this wine?" He Rongsheng enthusiastically took the enamel cup.

The homeless man lazily raised his finger and pointed to the left: "You can see the rice wine from Tangji Restaurant after crossing the two alleys and turning a corner."

He Rongsheng went to drink with his glass.Ran Yu asked, "Excuse me, are you Teacher Yuan Qiong?"

Ran Yu didn't know how to address people to appear more respectful, so he uniformly used the title he thought was the most respectful.

"No wine, no answer," said the tramp.

Ran Yu had to wait for He Rongsheng to come back.After waiting for a while, he felt bored, and seeing that the waste tire looked soft, he asked the homeless man if he could sit down.

The homeless man glanced up at him and said, "Tell me something interesting, I think it's interesting, and you sit down."

So Ran Yu thought about it seriously.Before he entered the city, his life was basically earning a living and studying, but after entering the city, it was even more lackluster. Naturally, he couldn't talk about the case at hand, because he still didn't know whether this person was Yuan Qiong.

After thinking about it, he really came up with something special.

"I want to talk about a dream I often have. I don't know if you will be interested." Ran Yu said, he seldom described his experience in long words outside of working hours, so he tried his best to choose the language, "In the dream I am an unknown fish. After being eaten by other fish or eating other fish, I become many fish at the same time. In the end, I will become a sea. Although I have never seen the sea. But in the dream, I breathe with the sea, my chest moves at the same rate as the waves, as if we are sharing our breath."

After hearing this, the tramp raised an eyebrow.

Ran Yu looked at him expectantly.

The tramp snorted, moved a little to the side, and said, "Sit down."

Ran Yu finally sat down comfortably, thinking that the tires are really soft, and he can make a handmade tire sofa by himself when he goes back.The homeless man was contemplating. After thinking for a while, he turned to look at the young man, only to find that he was staring at the clouds above his head, looking very sad.

"Why do you have such an expression?"

Ran Yu came to his senses, he didn't know what his expression was, but he answered truthfully: "Every time I see such thick clouds on cloudy days, I feel that these low snow-capped clouds will collapse one day. The whole city was buried."

Ran Yu thought that this weird tramp would feel this kind of sadness, or simply ignore him because he was bored, but he didn't expect that the other party suddenly started laughing.

The homeless man laughed so hard that he coughed badly at the end of the laugh: "Zhuangzi Mengdie, you dream of the sea, you worry about the sky, you worry about the clouds. You are such an interesting person, I like you so much...cough cough cough."

Just at this time He Rongsheng came back and hurriedly handed him the full enamel cup.

The tramp drank a few sips of rice wine, gradually stopped laughing, and then turned to Ran Yu and said, "Young man, you really should be a poet, not a lackey of the Security Bureau or the Inspectorate."

He also said: "Don't rush to deny it, I don't like liars. The Yuan Qiong you are looking for is not here today, come tomorrow. This worried young man will come to this alley at six o'clock tomorrow morning to look for Yuan Qiong. I don't like people who are late."
