In zhongzhouguo, as a city second only to Youzhou, the capital of the emperor, Huating is 24 hours a day, and its corners are almost full of busy scenes.
This is especially true at stations.
With the steady improvement of zhongzhouguo's status in the world, the development of Huating seems to have reached a climax. More and more people begin to come to this bustling big city to look for opportunities. People come and go in the station in a hurry. Dense crowds can be seen everywhere in every corner of the station.
There are so many people.
This is Li Tianlan's first impression of Huating.
Dressed in coarse cloth and holding a paper bag in his hand, he followed the crowd out of the station, feeling uncomfortable from the inside out.
Too many people, too fast, that's his only feeling.
This city seems to be emitting an invisible pressure all the time. Everyone around us is walking in a hurry. This super fast rhythm is like a terrible infectious disease. It can easily infect everyone, so everyone's speed is getting faster and faster. It's just a posture of tiring yourself to death.
Li Tianlan's heart is still in water. When he first arrived, even if he was assimilated by the rhythm of the city, he didn't go so fast. He went out of the station and bought a bottle of mineral water for one yuan. After a drink, Li Tianlan stood still and waited.
When he was on the road an hour ago, he took out the card in the paper bag and dialed the number above.
He is a bumpkin who just came out of the primeval forest. He borrowed his cell phone from a nice looking aunt. The one who answered the phone was a woman who seemed very young to listen to her voice. Her voice was chilly. She called herself "Huo Huo", a very strange name which was opposite to the cold tone. The two sides agreed to meet at the exit one hour later to calculate the time, It should be almost there by now.
Li Tianlan suddenly laughed.
Fire.
For him, the name really means something.
A young girl who happened to pass by Li Tianlan heard Li Tianlan's laughter and subconsciously walked away from him for a few steps. She looked at him with a slight frown and an undisguised disgust in her eyes.
Li Tianlan is not ugly, but he has nothing to do with his handsome appearance. At this time, he is dressed in coarse cloth, holding a bottle of mineral water in his hand, and holding a paper bag with no money. He is a bumpkin who has never seen the world. If such a person has no reason to smile at anyone, he will not be in a good mood.
The ordinary looking young girl stares at Li Tianlan and turns to leave.
Li Tianlan drank water and laughed it off.
As far as this city is concerned, Li Tianlan, who has spent most of his life in the virgin forest, is really a bumpkin, but he doesn't think it is worth inferiority. There is a grandfather who has made his 19 years of life bumpy and full. From the bottom of his heart, Li Tianlan never feels inferior to his peers, Now he has a perfect starting point. He firmly believes that as long as he is given time, others can have it. Sooner or later, he will have it.
And it won't take long.
A brand new black Audi slowly drove into the station, finally came to the exit and stopped in front of Li Tianlan.
When the driver's door opened, a beautiful but cold looking woman got out of the car and went straight to Li Tianlan. She said with no expression: "Mr. Li? I'm burning a fire. "
"I'm Li Tianlan."
Li Tianlan smiles and looks at the woman in front of her.
About 30 years old, less than 1.7 meters tall, looks pretty, even can be said to be beautiful, plain face, the whole person gives people a crisp feeling, the only pity is that her expression is too cold, let people see the heart straight chill, if her expression can ease some words, walking in the Street, absolutely not difficult to attract the attention of the opposite sex.
Passers-by nearby also began to look here intentionally or unintentionally. Although the temperament of the fire seeped a little, it was still beautiful. Now the beautiful car suddenly appeared in front of a silly looking bumpkin. The picture was very disobedient, and the passers-by were happy to pay more attention to it.
The fire turned a blind eye to the strange sight around. After confirming the identity of Li Tianlan, he nodded and said, "the boss has come to pick you up in person. Get on the bus."
As soon as her voice fell, there was a soft noise behind her.
In Li Tianlan's sight, the door of Audi's rear seat slowly opened, and a slender calf stepped on a pair of black stilettos and gently knocked on the ground.
A tall young figure gets off the back of Audi and looks at Li Tianlan.
At this moment, Li Tianlan only saw a pair of bright eyes.
The fire turned around and looked at the boss who suddenly appeared from the car, with a surprised look on his face.
Take the initiative to get off the woman gently forward two steps, high heel stepped on the ground, clear voice seems to knock on all men's hearts.
Li Tianlan's face was dull.
Women have complicated eyes.
"I'm a little white."
After a short silence, she took the initiative to stretch out her hand and said: "Qin Weibai."
Burning fire's eyes are more and more surprised. In the whole Huating, people who know her mysterious boss also know that the boss never shakes hands with any opposite sex. Why is this local bumpkin treated so favorably? Is the sun coming out in the west?
"Ah? Oh, I'm Li Tianlan. "
Li Tianlan suddenly returned to his senses and grasped Qin Weibai's small hand. It was tender and moist, just like a rare warm jade in the world.
Li Tianlan is in a state of confusion. For a moment, he is a little red in the face.
In his 19 years of life, what he is most proud of is his state of mind. Even if his grandfather Li Honghe's harsh requirements are used to evaluate him, he deserves the eight word comment that his heart is as perfect as waterstop. But at this moment, his state of mind like waterstop is exploding and surging.
Li Tianlan took a deep breath, and his eyes finally fell on Qin Weibai's face again.
The woman in front of him is the most perfect woman he has ever seen.
Her slender and tall, barefoot at least more than 1.75 meters tall, put on high-heeled shoes, enough to make the vast majority of men feel ashamed, a can be said to be a face, sharp and delicate lines, especially a pair of bright eyes, calm and deep, is able to let all men are willing to sink into.
She stood quietly in front of Li Tianlan, and let Li Tianlan hold her little hand.
It's like snow in the sky.
Like the moon in the clouds.
Misty and uncertain, just like the fairy who will go by the wind in the next second.
It's a woman who is independent from the rest of the world.
Li Tianlan's subordinates are more conscious.
Attention to the details of the fire, eyes suddenly cold, the whole person emerged a trace of murder.
How keen is Li Tianlan's perception? Without waiting for the fire to speak, he had realized his gaffe and quickly let go: "sorry, Mr. Qin."
"It doesn't matter. If you like, you can call me Weibai in the future."
Qin Weibai quietly took back his hand and said softly.
"Mr. Qin's name is not good. Where is micro white? It's just red in white and incomparable in style."
Li Tianlan forced himself to regain his composure and began to smile.
He turned his head to one side and tried to resist the urge to scold. However, he was extremely dissatisfied with the bumpkin who dared to tease his boss.
Qin Weibai's eyes were in a trance. At this moment, even Li Tianlan could clearly feel the perfect woman's mind in front of her. It seemed that she didn't know where she was, but she soon recovered and said with a light smile, "let's get on the bus."
Li Tianlan nodded and followed Qin Weibai into the back row of Audi in the envious eyes of the pedestrians around.
The fire with colder face started the car. The car quickly got out of the station and entered the wide and tidy street of Huating.
In the back of the car, Qin Weibai picked up a very heavy notebook from his side as soon as he got into the car. The blue cover looked old. She gently opened it and turned it over. There was already some yellow paper in it, which was full of handwriting. Qin Weibai closed the notebook and held it in his hand, with a light judo tone: "go to eat something?"
"Good."
Li Tianlan nodded directly. When he came out of Li village, he only took a few hundred yuan of money. After buying the ticket, he still had three yuan and fifty cents left in his pocket. A box lunch in the car would cost his mother 50 yuan. Li Tianlan is really hungry now.
"We'll go to Yu's for private food, and then we'll prepare some daily necessities for you. Tomorrow I'll take you to sky college to arrange your entrance. Tianlan, in Huating, you can come to me for anything. I will try my best to solve it. My mobile phone will turn on 24 hours. You can call me at any time. "
Qin Weibai stroked the notebook in his hand and looked at Li Tianlan beside him. His tone was very serious.
Smelling the faint fragrance of the beauty beside him and looking at the dreamlike face in his sight, Li Tianlan's heart beat faster again. He forced himself to divert his sight and nodded: "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Qin."
Qin Weibai frowned, obviously not very satisfied with the title of general manager Qin, but he didn't say much.
Li Tianlan is also silent, and he looks at the Huating Pavilion outside the window.
Row upon row of high-rise buildings, whistling cars, well-dressed pedestrians walking in the street, the old man holding the hand of the children, laughing.
There is also the warm sunshine rarely felt at the border.
Scene after scene of prosperous times keeps regressing in the progress of vehicles.
Li Tianlan's eyes were in a trance, and his pale face was complex and sad.
He thought again of the father he had never met.
Twenty years ago, his father was one of the top special operations personnel in Zhongzhou, but at the peak of his career, he died in the most humiliating way on the border between Zhongzhou and Annan.
The charge is treason.
irrefutable evidence.
If the most influential case of treason in recent years had not happened, his life from childhood to adulthood would have been quite different.
Just like these people out of the window, even better.
He didn't think that the tall buildings and cars outside the window were so attractive. But for the first time, the bumpkin who lived in the lush forest all the year round felt that the place where people lived was the place where there was sunshine and laughter.
The prosperous times before him were beautiful scenes that he could never dream of.
Li Tianlan suddenly thought of the border camp, thought of his father's treason, those veterans who followed his grandfather to exile themselves in the border for many years, thought of Ye Dongsheng's words.
Ye Dongsheng said that he could try his best to overturn the case for his father and return his innocence.
If my father was really innocent at that time, who was responsible for the treason?
Who killed his father?
"Who are they? What on earth do they want to do? Why is all this? "
Li Tianlan doesn't know who they are, but he can be sure that if they really exist, the other side will definitely have the strength to stand in this city, or even in the peak of the whole continent.
The scene outside the window became more and more prosperous.
Li Tianlan tightly pursed her lips, with pressure in her heart, but more of it was endless fighting spirit.
"What are you thinking about?"
Qin Weibai, who is always looking at Li Tianlan, suddenly asks.
"They shouldn't be living in that place, they really shouldn't be."
Li Tianlan stares at everything outside the window and mumbles to himself.
Qin Weibai's cold and delicate face showed a trace of smile. She seemed to understand Li Tianlan's meaning, but she didn't: "some people say that Huating is a lonely city with a thousand years of glory. It's a miracle city with zero rise. Tianlan, if you put this comment on you, what do you think?"
A thousand years of desolation, a glorious era
Li Tianlan's eyes still looked out of the window, plain as water, and said with a smile: "how can I have this ability?"
On his side, Qin Weibai sighed and subconsciously opened the heavy notebook that had been in his hands for some years.
On the yellow paper, hundreds of words suddenly appear on the paper, like a diary of someone.
To be fair, the handwriting on the paper is not beautiful, but it has a sharp edge. Every stroke can penetrate the back of the paper. The words are like swords and swords!
Qin Weibai's eyes stay on the last sentence of the diary, dazed.
"All that is under the sun is vanity. I come from the dark with eternal majesty
