Time flew by quickly, and many things that passed by while leaving behind traces would appear in his mind in a short time. Compared to the scene in the next few years, there would always be a feeling of the vicissitudes of time passing in front of his eyes, a feeling that was both wonderful and interesting. It was not something other people could experience.

He was used to the extravagance of a first-tier city, but it was very difficult for him to assimilate into it. Right now, he saw the county sand in his eyes, in its old age, a sense of familiarity, even though it was already in 2001, but the city was still the same as it was in the eighties and nineties. There was a slow feeling of familiarity in the city, as slow as the river, which made people feel that it was not a foreign city in an instant.

In short, life was thick.

The citizens who had nothing to do, the bustling midnight snack stand, the seemingly dirty ground, the bright red tent, which was lit up like a lantern, the customers who were waiting to serve their food, the stall owners who were sweating profusely, the long table filled with fiery red lobsters, the golden crab, and the large chili peppers that were tempting to the appetite.

Passing by the midnight snack market, Zhao An bought a batch of crayfish and sped up his pace a little. After all, it was already quite late.

After leaving the midnight snack market, they gradually left the crowded area of the city center. The street lamps and the street lamps gradually dimmed, and from time to time, groups of delinquents could be seen strolling around aimlessly. With Ceng Wen dead, it meant that these delinquents had lost their leader. After all, there was no way to casually collect protection fees these days.

If you didn't fight for it, people would think that you have no guts. If you don't fight for it, someone will come and take you in. Most importantly, the expansion of territory and influence, even if it did not bring any benefits in the newly obtained territory, was still a form of prestige, meaning that it meant that there would be a more resounding reputation for it.

In Zhao An's eyes, being taught a lesson or even being beaten to death after looking at others once was nothing out of the ordinary. He was not afraid of these hooligans, and it was even more impossible for him to be beaten to death by three or five hooligans. However, with lobster in his possession, it was more important than those hooligans.

Walking through an alley, Zhao An remembered that every day from six to eight in the afternoon, there would be a person selling stinky tofu. Zhao An remembered that every day, there would be a person selling stinky tofu from six to eight in the afternoon, and the business would be extremely booming. Apple is an expert in the marketing of hunger and thirst, but it is not a big deal. There are plenty of people with ideas in the market.

Zhao An didn't like eating stinky tofu to such an extent that he had to wait in line. Zhao An looked at the small plastic bowl and the messy bamboo sticks on the ground, frowned, and paused for a moment before continuing forward. He then felt a sharp weapon at his waist, causing him to stop in his tracks.

Zhao An wasn't an invincible superhuman, and he wasn't even an King Kong Gourd. If someone suddenly stabbed him, he would die … He knew that his opponent's dagger was relatively sharp, but he was also wearing his school uniform. If his opponent wanted to directly stab into his waist, it would not be easy for him to do so, he could completely escape from his opponent. If his opponent moved his dagger to stab back at him, then the moment the dagger left his body, Zhao An would have the confidence to turn around and subdue his opponent.

In 2001, there were quite a few robberies in the county, even if it was a severe one. The desperate would not avoid a severe beating. A severe beating could only reduce normal public security disputes and crimes.

However, Zhao An felt that this wasn't a robbery, he was just an ordinary student that was holding a bowl of lobster … Crime carries a huge cost risk, so the perpetrator of the robbery of course seeks higher returns at high risk. Robbing a student is clearly a foolish act of risk and profit that does not match at all.

Kidnapping? This was more like it. After all, his family had a lot of money now, and if he were to extort even a few million out, his parents would probably make the robbers do as they pleased.

The talented expert was bold. Zhao An took a deep breath. He did not move, but his own breathing became hurried and tense, revealing a little bit of fear.

"Come in." That person lowered the volume of his business. His dagger was still pressed against Zhao An's lower back. He then pulled Zhao An's arm back.

Zhao Tinghua!

He absolutely did not expect that it would be Zhao Tinghua. He originally thought that Zhao Tinghua, who was wanted by the police, would have left the county by now, but he did not expect him to be so bold as to stay here. There were many people who knew him around here, and even more who knew that he had killed someone … In such a small area, the speed at which news spread through the city was astonishing.

Zhao An didn't care whether Zhao Tinghua would fall into the trap or run away. He just felt that Zhao Tinghua shouldn't dare to return to the prefectural city of Sha, which meant that it had nothing to do with him. Zhao An didn't care too much about where Zhao Tinghua had escaped to … After all, the human heart was extremely complicated and hard to fathom. He could slowly arrange for Zhao Tinghua to kill Ceng Wen, but he would not be able to control the whereabouts of Zhao Tinghua.

"Brother Hua, why are you still here?" Zhao An no longer showed any signs of fear. He had spent quite a lot of time with Zhao Tinghua, so Zhao Tinghua was very clear that Zhao An wasn't a little kid who would piss his pants while being threatened with a knife.

"Hehe, of course I'm here. I'm waiting to deal with you." He had originally come to look for Zhao An, waiting from the afternoon till the evening. If he did not have to wait for Zhao Tinghua, he would not dare to stay here for too long.

"You want to settle accounts with me?" Zhao An asked in puzzlement, "Brother Hua, what do you mean by that?" I didn't do anything to wrong you. "

He gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, his voice filled with resentment, "The more I think about it, the more wrong I feel. At that time, it was as if I was under your control that you made a move on Zeng Wen. You'd better tell me honestly what you did to me!"

Although there were quite a few police officers in pursuit of Zhao Tinghua, they were mainly focused on Zhao Tinghua, the vicinity of Ou Xiang's home, as well as some hooligans who were usually very close to Zhao Tinghua, even keeping an eye out for him at E World Internet Cafe. However, there weren't any special patrols or checks in the city center or the area around the scene of the crime. Zhao Tinghua had been hiding behind a chicken coop on the roof of a nearby residential building the entire time.

During this period of time, besides being on guard against anyone who paid special attention to him, he was also reflecting on the various events that had happened during the time when he was killing someone. He always felt that although he was furious and could have killed someone, the situation at that time where he found it extremely difficult to control himself was extremely strange, as if Zhao An was constantly urging him to kill someone.
