In the following time, Luo Binhan began to travel frequently through the stars. He went to the fire station again and observed the movements inside from a distance. He estimated that there were about thirty people permanently stationed inside. Basically they are all men, except for a woman who is obviously pregnant and walks into the fire station at noon every day and chats affectionately with the guard.
Luo Binhan saw her three times and quickly understood that the woman and the doorman were a couple, and their family lived in the town he had visited before. The woman has a big belly and doesn't move very neatly, but she frequently visits her husband at the fire station. The two looked like they were inseparable.
Since the fire station does not allow strangers to enter, Luo Binhan planned to start asking about the pregnant woman. When he saw her walking out of the fire station that day, he immediately hid the aircraft in the woods and pretended to be a tourist walking across her.
At this time, Luo Binhan's translator had already added the language information of this world, which was enough to guide him to complete some simple conversations with the locals. And his hair color was obviously different from the light brown that was the most popular color in the area, so he simply pretended to be an exotic tourist who came for a walk in the woods, and greeted the other person in the local dialect that was not very sharp.
His clothes were thin and his hands were empty, so the woman was not very suspicious of him. The two quickly exchanged names and had a good conversation. Luo Binhan learned that both she and her husband had the last name "Mudu" (this was just the transliteration provided by the translator, and he didn't know whether its pronunciation had other hidden meanings). She lived in the nearby town of Yuanshitai. She used to be a waitress in a bar. After she became pregnant, she quit her job and stayed home temporarily. She only visited her husband during walks.
Luo Binhan casually made up a nationality and origin outside the ocean for himself, and then calmly inquired about the recent movements in the fire station. As a result, Mrs. Mudu's reaction was very ordinary, and she did not mention a word about giants or monsters. She didn't come to visit every day, so she might have missed Momolo's appearance, but her husband had been on duty at the fire station for more than a month, and there was no way he would have missed that shocking scene.
He observed Mrs. Mudu's words and deeds and felt that she did not seem to be lying, and the doorman had no reason to hide this strange incident from his wife unless he was under heavy pressure from the top.
But that seems counterintuitive. According to Luo Binhan's experience, news in such semi-rural areas always spreads quickly among communities and social circles, while the government is always a little slower. It has not been a week since Momolo's appearance. How can the country's official agencies completely confirm the authenticity of this matter and keep the local residents unaware of it?
The technological level here may be higher than that in his hometown, but he still doesn't think the government can achieve such amazing control. In order to verify this, Luo Binhan planned to inquire among the residents of the small town.
He sent Mrs. Mudu back to town, secretly noted her address, and wandered along the streets. There are probably few new faces here, so passers-by often stare at him, but they seem more reserved when speaking. The attitude of these people made Luo Binhan feel a little guilty. He always felt that his original prank on the clerk had been exposed.
This mentality prompted him to avoid the straight road leading to the mobile phone store and turn into a relatively secluded alley. He decided to randomly ambush a lone town resident here, force him to ask him if he knew the news about the appearance of the giant, and then use a memory stick to erase the traces of his crime.
This plan went bankrupt the moment he stepped into the alley. Someone has already arrived deep in the alley. A group of young men and women were talking animatedly about something. When Luo Binhan came over, they immediately stopped talking furtively and stared at him unkindly.
There were five men and three women, a total of eight people. This number did not pose much of a threat to Luo Binhan, but it was not sure that anyone would be able to escape. He also smelled a pungent smell of burnt plants in the air, a similar smell that he had smelled several times before, on his sister's ex-boyfriend.
Luo Binhan didn't want to cause this trouble. He turned around and was about to leave, but the young men from behind were calling him cheerfully, deliberately using dirty words to test whether he understood. These people were all younger than Luo Binhan, probably at university age, and all the provocations they could name were innocuous to Luo Binhan. But one of the girls had a different voice than the others.
"Wait a minute." The shrill voice said, "This man looks familiar to me... He punched me in my dream!"
Luo Binhan had no impression of this voice. He turned around in surprise and saw a girl with a high ponytail. The ends of her braids were curled and highlighted, with a pinch of burgundy mixed in. The makeup on her face was thick and colorful, and she was also wearing a pair of ripped tights. Luo Binhan almost didn't recognize her because of her earth-shaking little girl attire. It wasn't until he caught a glimpse of the burgundy phone she was holding in her hand that he suddenly realized that this person was one of the prisoners he rescued from the savages not long ago. .
He glanced at the others, trying to find a few other prisoners at the time, but he didn't find any that looked particularly familiar. That may also be because these people's clothing is too fashionable, and they are completely different species from the captives wearing mountaineering jackets.
The young people in the alley started laughing, probably because of what they just heard.
"Have you seen him in your dream?" one of the guys said glibly, "He even punched you, didn't he do anything else to you?"
"I'm not interested in her model." Luo Binhan said. This was not an angry comment, because his sister also liked to dress up like a killer in junior high school, which made him tired of hearing the quarrels between mother and daughter.
The young people made a fuss. Some shook their fists and booed him, while others simply gloated. The other two girls put their arms around the shoulders of the burgundy ponytails, covering their mouths and laughing non-stop as if they thought they were cute.
The burgundy ponytail gestured to him with her eyebrows. The look in her eyes indicated that this was an insulting move, but Luo Binhan didn't know what it meant. He asked the other party nonchalantly: "When did you dream?"
"In the mountains." The burgundy ponytail said, "I fell asleep while walking in the mountains. When I woke up, the back of my head hurt as if I had been hit. It was you."
"Why should I hit you? Is it because you are ugly?"
The young people burst into laughter again, and some of them obviously wanted to punish him. Luo Binhan observed the burgundy ponytail and concluded that she had no additional intelligence value, so he immediately turned around and left, hoping to find some older and smarter people to inquire about.
He walked halfway down the street and heard light footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw the burgundy ponytail following him. The little girl didn't hide her intentions. After being seen, she simply strode to Luo Binhan's side.
Luo Binhan stopped: "What do you want to do?"
The burgundy ponytail raised her head and stared at him arrogantly: "You must have punched me."
"Do you have evidence? If so, go to court and sue me."
The wine-red ponytail snorted sullenly. Luo Binhan had seen her without makeup and knew she was good-looking, but when he saw her big painted face, he felt bad. He felt like he was talking to a mental junior high school student.
He kept walking forward with his head down, but the wine-red ponytail still followed him reluctantly. This behavior has seriously interfered with Luo Binhan's reconnaissance plan, making his already depressed mood even worse. He wanted to find a deserted alley and punch her in the back of the head, but he ended up on a straight and flat road. Now Luo Binhan had no way to escape, so he could only say to the burgundy ponytail: "I will call the police if you harass me again."
"My father is the police chief here." The wine-red ponytail said, proudly puffing out her barren chest.
Luo Binhan glanced at her: "Does your father control you strictly?"
"It's none of your business."
"It's none of my business if you go away now." Luo Binhan said, "Otherwise I will tell him that you are sucking leaves and let him throw you into the correctional center."
The burgundy ponytail looked at him in shock. Luo Binhan was simply amused: "Do you think you concealed it well?"
"But you shouldn't know about the correctional facility." said the burgundy ponytail, "Aren't you a savage who lives in the mountains?"
