Special Administration

Chapter 46 Lantern Silver Tree

During the day, in the office, when the door was closed, there were only three people left in the room.

Uncle Bai said that You Nian was "unteachable", and Chen Chen did not dare to comment more, but the mana in You Nian's meridians was born and restrained with his natal talent, suppressed too much.

"This is also a kind of fate." Chen Chen said, "Everyone wants the natural talent, but if you can't get it, you are still frustrated."

You Nian was so disappointed that he couldn't even use a spell, and couldn't pinch out the simplest Huo Jue.I thought I could go to heaven and earth and be omnipotent, but it turned out that I was just an ordinary person.

Chen Chen positioned himself as a mentor, and taught him a lesson: "It's not about using mana to handle cases, but relying on technology and brains! Besides, not all paper talismans need to be guided by mana."

"You have me." Qi Lin also said, "I can use it."

Chen Chen, who was slapped mercilessly on the face of dog food, was calm on the surface, but he vomited blood internally: "But you can practice according to the method given to you by Uncle Bai. Maybe one day the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, and your mana will be even stronger."

"You lied to ghosts!" You Nian roared, "Those things that complement each other have higher mana and higher talent! I should never think about it in my life."

"You can't say that. I want you to continue practicing. I hope you can control it properly and retract it freely." Chen Chen pushed his glasses.

You Nian looked hopeless.

The days were leisurely and leisurely, during the day, everyone chatted and chatted together, and at night they still slept in the same bed with Qi Lin.

On Friday, the two went to buy coffee as usual and brought them to Chen Chen's office.

On the side of the road, workers wearing hard hats climbed to trees to tie colored lights.You Nian just remembered that it will soon be the first month of the Chinese New Year, which is the busiest few days of the year when gongs and drums blare.That long colored lantern seems to bind all the people in the world together, and each other depends on each other through life and death.

Under the tree, You Nian bluntly looked up for a while, and then slowly said: "Will you go back during the Chinese New Year?"

Qi Lin shook his head: "I won't go back."

You Nian looked sideways: "How do you think you celebrate the New Year?"

Qi Lin thought for a while and said, "I don't remember."

No matter what festival, for him, it is no different from ordinary days.

"Let's go home together to celebrate the New Year." You Nian naturally couldn't bear to leave Qi Lin behind, "But you can't tell my dad, he doesn't know about the two of us, and I haven't mentioned my own to him .”

Qi Lin couldn't understand why human beings are like rules and regulations, they must be restricted in everything, and he couldn't understand why such a good-looking young man couldn't marry.They can eat anything, and no matter how they get married, it is stipulated that men must match women.But what You Nian said was what he said, and he listened to it.

With him, everything has meaning, and only by living can we get on the right track.Qi Lin thought, seeing is colorful.

You Nian is going to train Qi Lin to be obedient, at least he can call "Uncle" when he sees people, and stop beating and killing people.

Today is the deadline, Chen Chen and the others are already preparing to leave, all the documents in the office should be shredded.

Chen Chen and Zhong Jiushi took the train back to Beijing, and Hua Yichen booked a flight ticket to Wisconsin, USA tomorrow.There is still a week before the annual leave, and You Nian has to go back to work for another week. He is trying to get a ticket for Qi Lin to go home, and it has to be the same shift, otherwise Qi Lin will definitely lose himself.

According to an unwritten rule in the bureau, one case would not be handled in succession with another case. This case was concluded in a timely manner, and the annual leave was added for a week, so it could be taken for half a month consecutively, which made Zhong Jiushi, Hua Yichen and the others very happy. up.

For dinner, You Nian invited everyone to eat at a Nanjing food stall. He had promised Zhong Jiushi a long time ago that he would treat him to a meal, and by the way, invited them along with him.After ordering, everyone sat around the table, each in their own way.

You Nian asked Hua Yichen: "Did you spend Chinese New Year in America?"

He heard that many wealthy families set their homes abroad.

Hua Yichen was chatting with someone on WeChat: "No, my family is very traditional. I'm from Shanghai. My whole family went to Shanghai together. I flew back on the 29th. I stayed there for a few days."

You Nian became curious again, and waited for the answer with his ears pricked up: "There are similar organizations in foreign countries. China can't just have monsters. Doesn't the United States still have demons? Archangels or something."

"Yes." Chen Chen replied, pouring hot tea and ironing the tableware for everyone, "They are mainly Christians who do this, unlike in China, where there are too many religious beliefs in Buddhism, Taoism, and Christianity, it is impossible to do it. In the past, the Special Administration Bureau was not established, but there were monks and Taoists who did these things. However, no matter then or now, most of them are liars. Now there are many under the banner of Longhushan Quanzhen. There are not a few, and there are good and bad disciples who are taught by the same master. But now most of them are in the executive department, and it is convenient to do things."

You Nian said: "Those who look at Feng Shui are all fake."

To this day, You Nian still can't tell what is real and what is fake.

Zhong Jiushi hit You Nian on the head with chopsticks.

Only then did You Nian remember Zhong Jiushi's WeChat name, and he was dumbfounded: "Really? I thought you were a magic stick."

Unexpectedly, Zhong Jiushi also agreed with You Nian's words: "Maybe it's true. It may be that one of my ancestors changed his surname and identified himself as a descendant of Zhong Kui. Fengshui is very mysterious."

"You can?"

Zhong Jiushi shook her head, looking satisfied: "No, my brother will. Do you want to see the cemetery? Find me and I'll give you a [-]% discount. This discount is very low, Huahua can only get a [-]% discount."

You Nian Fu forehead: "No, I will be cremated after death, and the ashes will be scattered in the Yangtze River. The cemetery is too expensive, and I can't afford it. By the way, you are not afraid of mudslides, landslides, tourism development, etc., won't Feng Shui change?"

"It's because Feng Shui will change, that's why we can continue to live and make more money!" Zhong Jiushi slapped the table, feeling that You Nian had finally hit the road, "This is the way to make money."

At night, when I returned to Xuanwu Street, I was immersed in the night, and the colored lights looked like poisonous snakes lurking in the branches.

You Nian is not afraid of animals. Before, he was not afraid of tigers and lions. After taming a big dog, he became even more daring. He traveled all over the world without fear.Before the New Year, the lanterns will not be turned on in advance. Hanging on the tree, the small light bulbs are like fish eggs, a bit gloomy, ghostly, seemingly unreal, everything is like a dream.If this dream will wake up, You Nian hopes to wake up with Qi Lin.

It was only after eight o'clock when he came back, Hua Yichen took You Nian to the Sisyphe Bookstore on the street to buy the books he read on the plane.

All walks of life are preparing to turn off the lights and make samples, take stock of the day's turnover, and a few scattered guests are still lingering.Together with the lights of thousands of families, each window is as graceful as a butterfly.

You Nian couldn't see that Hua Yichen could calm down and read a book. Within an hour, Hua Yichen would not let go of his phone for five or ten minutes.But Hua Yichen has to take You Nian with him in everything he does, in the name of bringing a local to facilitate him.You Nian didn't think so, he decided that Hua Yichen was treating himself as a toy: "It's fine if you play with your phone on the plane."

Qi Lin is someone who can fall asleep just by the cover of a book, leaning against the window and dozing off.

After nightfall, the cold wind was loud, and there were very few people, but no one was watching him.

Hua Yichen said seriously: "No, I want to pretend to be B, come here, find a book that allows me to pretend to be B and let me fly."

There were only two customers left in the bookstore. You Nian looked at the dazzling array of books, wondering which book could meet Hua Yichen's "special" requirements, "Then you can find a book about literature and art."

Going to the innermost part of the bookstore, it is a small closed cafe, which has long been closed.

A few days ago, You Nian also visited here when he was bored, it seems that this cafe has never opened for business.Lying on the glass window and looking in, the interior is neatly furnished and well-equipped, and the coffee machine and coffee cups are brand new and shiny.I don't know whether it will close the business as soon as it opens, or it will have to open for business in the future.

"What are you looking at?" Hua Yichen also lay down on his stomach to read, he was obviously more interested in You Nian than in the book.

The lights of the bookstore are thrown in, and the indoor shadows are blurry. The three-dimensional projection and rich imagination make every shadow look like a ghost with claws and claws. not come out.

You Nian shook his head and asked, "What book are you holding, it's so big!"

Hua Yichen was holding a large book with a dark green cover in his hand

You Nian took it. It was heavier than a brick and could be used as a murder weapon. The paper in the book was also thick and slippery. It was a book introducing characteristic wooden houses in various countries around the world. He asked doubtfully, "Do you want to buy this book?"

Hua Yichen put on an expression that you think I'm stupid: "All my luggage combined is not as heavy as this book, and I'm not your beast, with infinite strength."

In You Nian's heart, Hua Yichen was already very strong, but when compared with Qi Lin, he was instantly reduced to scum.

In a closed cafe, sitting on a booth at the corner, was a young man, dressed in a thick indigo Hanfu, with a crew-shaven head.

If Hua Yichen opened his yin and yang eyes at this time, he would be able to see an acquaintance of his, maybe not an acquaintance, but after a face-to-face meeting, he couldn't even say a word.

The indigo color is covered by shadows, and multiple colors overlap, and under the heavy ink, it becomes black in a trance.The boy curled up in the corner as much as possible, as if he was afraid of being discovered.During his duty, he was sneaky and as timid as others, which is quite rare.

In front of the closed door of the cafe, there are books by Yukio Mishima and Osamu Dazai.The young man raised his head slightly from the shadows, and instead of looking away from the two of them, he looked aside, a weak bird lying on the bar blatantly.

The bird ignored the boy and stared intently at the two people outside the glass wall.

The young man was guilty of being a villain, and always felt that he would be caught in the next second, so he made a "hey hey" sound and called the bird on the bar.

Bird finally gave him face and turned his head reluctantly.

The boy mouthed, "It's time to go."

Bird shook his face, then turned his head back, and Ren Juvenile ignored him no matter how he "huh heh heh".

You Nian picked out a book by Yukio Mishima for Hua Yichen. It was a light book, almost weightless, and it was convenient for hypnotism on the plane. "How about this book? It's only 20 yuan."

Hua Yichen took the book, and immediately praised: "You are so diligent and thrifty in managing your family. If you dare to ask if you have a real sister or sister, I must kiss you."

You Nian was used to his appearance, and said calmly: "There are a few cousins."

Hua Yichen shook his head quickly, and went down the steps by himself: "Forget it, the blood is not pure, so don't think about it." Holding two books, gently embracing You Nian's shoulders, the two walked towards the cashier at the door go.

The bird was watching all the time, turning its neck ninety degrees and another ninety degrees.The lights were dim, the figure was blurred, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

"Hi—" The boy developed a fifth sound, and An couldn't bear it for a while, and blurted out, "Akai!"

The bird stretched its neck suddenly, and glared at him hard. The bright yellow pupils were full of anger. It was clearly a small vulture.

The young man was frightened by the stares, and retreated into the chair, timidly as if trying to justify himself: "It's time to go back."

Hua Yichen bought two books, one was chosen by You Nian for him, and the other was the Brick, which he chose for You Nian.

As soon as the customers leave, the cashiers also get off work, and the lights go out when they leave, leaving only one person and one bird looking at each other in blank dismay.Akai just reluctantly spread his wings and threw himself on the young man's face.The young man dared not speak out, and stood up with tears streaming down his face, ready to withdraw.
