Global Reincarnation: I am the only one who understands the plot
Chapter 38 New Year's Eve
The rusty axle creaked.
Just like the wheel of history, it rolled forward with the tide of the times.
Xiafei Road is located in the golden area of the French Concession and is a prosperous economic center.
Of course, the housing prices here are much higher than other places.
It cost Lin Luo 7,000 US dollars to buy a two-story villa from a foreigner.
If he was not afraid of being investigated in the future, it would cause trouble.
He even wanted to suck the man to death and occupy the house.
Don't think 7,000 US dollars is not much.
In this era, this money can buy 140 taels of gold, and there may be some left.
In the plot, Guo Qiyun rented a photo studio for only 120 yuan a month, and it was in dollars.
The money Lin Luo used to buy a house was enough to rent the studio for 11 years!
It can be seen how badly he was ripped off.
Fortunately, all the furniture in the villa is complete.
You can move in with your luggage, no other preparations are required.
Standing on the second-floor balcony, Lin Luo put his hands behind his back and observed Xiafei Road below.
There is another more important reason to buy this house.
The photo studio in the plot is across the road, no more than 30 meters away in a straight line.
If you want to connect with several protagonists, it is necessary to be close.
Other reincarnations have chosen their camps in advance when entering the dungeon.
They can automatically integrate into the plot without any operation.
But Lin Luo is different.
As a third-party camp, he needs to act on his own to enter the plot.
And when contacting many protagonists, he must not arouse their suspicion.
This gave Lin Luo a headache.
On the way to the car just now, he talked with the rickshaw driver for a long time.
Minglou officially took office as deputy director of the Special Commission; the Sakura special train was also blown up two days ago.
The timeline of the dungeon can be basically determined.
Today is New Year's Eve.
According to the development of the original plot, Mingtai formulated the first mission on New Year's Eve.
Assassinate the deputy director of the pseudo-government's Finance Department: Wang Fuqiu!
This was a gift from Mingtai to Wang Manchun and No. 76 as a demonstration.
But he didn't expect it.
Because of this incident, Wang Manchun finally found out his code name of Poison Scorpion.
This led to a series of events later.
Of course, Lin Luo also felt that Wang Fuqiu deserved to die.
It was just that Mingtai was too confident and made many innocent people suffer with him, which was what Lin Luo sneered at.
The sun was setting in the west and the sky was getting dark.
Lin Luo, who came to his senses, looked at the time. It was already past seven o'clock in the evening.
Between the buildings in the distance, a few scattered fireworks exploded.
Adding a little warmth to this cold-blooded city.
Bang, bang, bang!
The crisp sound of firecrackers was mixed with sporadic gunshots.
Ordinary people might not hear it, but Lin Luo quickly distinguished it.
He turned his head and looked at the Peace Hotel in the distance.
His face moved.
"It's started."
...
Half an hour later.
In front of the Peace Hotel, dozens of cars surrounded all the exits.
Minglou was wearing a woolen coat and walked hurriedly.
Customers crowded in the corner of the hotel.
Noise and shouting continued.
In contrast to the panic in the hotel.
On a stone bridge not far from Xiafei Road, two figures stood quietly.
Beside them, several gorgeous small fireworks gradually went out.
Yu Manli looked lonely, took back the matches she handed out, and forced a smile on her face.
The two stood on the bridge, looking at the fireworks exploding in the distant sky.
"Mingtai..."
"I think!"
The two who spoke at the same time were stunned and looked at each other.
Yu Manli lowered her head and smiled: "You speak first."
Mingtai retracted his gaze and looked into the distance again: "I miss my sister and brother."
His words made Manli's smile suddenly stiff.
He quickly turned his head to look beside him to hide his strangeness.
However, Mingtai did not notice her emotions and continued to talk to himself.
"Every New Year's Eve, our family will set off fireworks together. I'm in Shanghai now, but I can't go home..."
"They must miss me too."
"I know what I'm doing now, I have to hide it from them; but one day I will have to face them..."
Yu Manli didn't speak, and listened quietly to Mingtai's statement.
She still kept a smile on her face.
But those pure and desireless eyes seemed to be overflowing with tears.
"You go home." Yu Manli sighed softly.
Mingtai turned his head in surprise, "Ah?"
"Today, you should go home." She repeated.
"What about you?" Mingtai asked.
Yu Manli shook her head slightly with an imperceptible amplitude.
But she didn't answer him.
"Let's go."
"If you go home now, you may still be able to catch the New Year's Eve dinner."
"Remember to go back to the studio first, change clothes, and then take your luggage."
Inside the Ming family, Mingtai's current identity is still a college student studying in Hong Kong.
If he doesn't change clothes and take luggage in advance, his identity will be exposed.
Yu Manli reminded him carefully and straightened his collar for him.
The two of them walked towards the studio half a body away from each other.
...
Want to insert the plot midway.
It would be best to start with a few protagonists!
Mingtai, Yu Manli, Cheng Jinyun, etc.
However, Lin Luo's own selfishness played a role, and he quickly excluded Mingtai.
After working for an hour or so, Master Lin hurried back to Xiafei Road.
At the intersection, several little girls were selling flowers.
The big bunches of bright red roses instantly attracted Lin Luo's attention, and he couldn't help but stop.
After a moment, he made a plan in his mind.
At this time in Xiafei Road.
Although there were colorful lights and lanterns hanging in front of each store.
But there were very few pedestrians on the road.
Many people living here are foreigners, and they don't have the habit of celebrating the Spring Festival and New Year's Eve.
Those shops that are still open are also deserted.
The road is covered with fallen leaves and mottled shadows of trees.
Somewhere covered by shadows.
Yu Manli sat on her knees, with her hands on her knees and her head buried in them.
If you don't look carefully, you really can't tell that there is a person sitting here.
Rustle!
The sound of leather shoes stepping on fallen leaves sounded.
Lin Luo opened his mouth, moved the muscles on his face, and then put on a dazed expression.
His eyes were dull, and he walked forward mechanically.
When he approached Manli.
Hearing the sound, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Luo vigilantly.
At this time, Lin Luo seemed to have just discovered someone in front of him. He was panicked and subconsciously shouted.
"Who?!"
His shout made Yu Manli tense up.
She quickly stood up from the ground.
After seeing Lin Luo's face clearly, her nervous mood was slightly relieved.
In particular, the bouquet of roses in the other party's hand made Yu Manli stare at it for a long time.
Lin Luo, who calculated the time, held back his smile.
Noticed Manli's absent-minded gaze and her alert right hand.
Lin Luo sighed: "Miss, you will scare people to death if you hide like this."
He seemed to be talking to himself: "I was just rejected by others and almost scared to death. I am really unlucky today."
Rejected by others?
Yu Manli recalled the conversation with Mingtai and looked up at Lin Luo.
"You speak Chinese very well."
"I'm Chinese!" Lin Luo shouted without hesitation.
Under the dim yellow light, looking at his deep blue pupils, Yu Manli felt a little suspicious.
"Today is New Year's Eve, why don't you go home and reunite with your family?" Lin Luo asked.
Family...
Yu Manli did not answer, but looked at the bouquet of roses in his hand.
"You didn't go home either."
"Why, was your confession rejected by someone?"
