The next day, Gu Yuan personally drove the car and sent the little fat ball back.
The second uncle and second aunt also asked for half a day off and wanted to go there together to have a look.
Before departure, the second uncle and second aunt went to the supermarket and bought a lot of things in large and small bags. In the end, they couldn't carry any more, so they called Fang Yu directly and asked him to drive another car over.
Snacks and daily necessities didn't take up much space, but there were also firewood, rice, oil and salt. Just three bags of rice made Gu Yuan's trunk a little stretched.
Gu Yuan wanted to dissuade him, but his second aunt was very convincing.
"Didn't you say that the place where Little Fatty Ball lives has inconvenient transportation? Even if they grow their own vegetables, they still need rice! Oh, by the way, does Little Fatty Ball's house have a refrigerator?"
"No."
"Then you have to buy a refrigerator, otherwise the meat can't be stored." The second uncle said from the side.
"???????????????Leave this to me!" Fang Yu took out his mobile phone from his pocket, "Hello? Find me a small truck, what about four in the front and eight in the back... Do you want it to be so big? Yes, a small truck will do, it can hold a refrigerator, color TV, etc..."
…
After struggling all morning, Gu Yuan was able to set off.
The car stopped in front of Little Fatty Ball's house. Fang Yu directed the workers to carry the refrigerator and TV inside. Little Fatty's grandfather, the haggard old man, looked surprised. He originally thought he was here to cause trouble, but when he saw After seeing Gu Yuan, his hanging heart was immediately relieved.
But when he saw the little fat ball, his eyes flashed with tears. He turned away and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand.
"Thank you..." The old man's withered hand held Gu Yuan's hand tightly, "Thank you, and thank you to your family..."
When speaking, the old man's voice was choked with sobs.
He knows the current situation of Little Fatty Ball better than anyone else. At the same time, he is also grateful to Gu Yuan and the others for allowing Little Fatty Ball to feel the company and warmth of his family in the last stage of his life.
For the grandfather and grandson, it is indeed hard-won to be able to feel warmth in this world.
At this moment, Gu Yuan wanted to say some words of comfort.
But when the words reached his throat, he swallowed them back.
The old man has lived for so many years, why can’t he figure it out?
But people's emotions are like this. Just because you can see clearly and think things through doesn't mean you won't feel sad. Just like people understand birth, old age, illness and death, but they have never learned to deal with it calmly.
The little fat ball's emotions were well controlled. There were tears in his eyes, but not a single drop fell. On the contrary, the second aunt held the little fat ball in her arms and kept mumbling in her mouth.
"You have to eat on time, do you understand? The mobile phone is in your pocket, you must remember to call me, three times a day... Oh, that's too much, once a day, do you understand?
If you miss us, just call and say, I'll ask Guoguo to drive to pick you up. If you're not feeling well, you have to call and say, you know? "
The little fat ball just kept nodding his head, raising the corners of his mouth, and smiled at the second aunt.
The little fat ball has always been very sensible and knows how to hide his thoughts, but no matter how sensible he is, he is still a child. Seeing his second aunt bursting into tears, his emotions gradually lost control, and finally he turned around and ran into the house.
When Gu Yuan drove away, he didn't come out to watch, fearing that he wouldn't be able to hold it back and would want to follow them back.
Watching the car getting further and further away, the little fat ball finally raised his hand and wiped his tears with the back of his hand.
The old man's withered hand gently placed on the top of his head.
"It's okay if you don't come back!"
The little fat ball raised his head and looked at the old man.
"But??????????????? It's me... I will miss you so much!"
The old man's hand caressing the little fat ball's head paused for a moment, and then he gently pinched the chubby face.
"They like you very much and love you very much, I can feel it."
The little fat ball grinned and laughed.
"Yeah...I can feel it every day. Grandpa..."
"Huh? I'm here."
"I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of making you sad."
"..." The old man was silent for a long time and nodded slightly, "Yes, I understand..."
…
The second uncle sitting in the back row kept comforting the second aunt, but the second aunt couldn't stop crying.
They all know about Little Fatty Ball.
It is precisely because of this that such a parting is particularly sad.
They always worry that this meeting will be their last.
They are even more worried that every future meeting will be treated as the last time.
The second aunt has a strong personality, but she has a stern tone when it comes to monsters and things like that.
Especially after Gu Yuan became extraordinary, he entered the Martial Arts Academy and joined the Demon Suppression Department. He had to deal with monsters every day. The second aunt often had nightmares that would wake her up in the middle of the night, and then she would call Gu Yuan in a hurry, only to hear that Only with Gu Yuan's voice could he feel completely at ease.
But after having a little fat ball in her life, the second aunt suddenly felt that the monster was not as scary as she thought.
It wasn't until she got home that the second aunt's mood improved, but she still said nothing and diverted her attention by doing housework.
The second uncle sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, but he kept looking out the window, as if he was forcing himself to return to a peaceful life in this way, but the more he did this, the more depressing the atmosphere became.
Just when Gu Yuan didn't know what to do or say, Luo Yin called and asked him to come over.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuan glanced at his second uncle with some worry. The second uncle coughed lightly, unscrewed the thermos cup and took a sip of tea.
"You go about your business. Your second aunt and I are fine. Come back early for dinner in the evening."
"Okay." Gu Yuan nodded, took the car keys and left the house.
…
Arriving at the cafe, Luo Yin pointed directly upstairs.
"They are all waiting for you in the conference room."
"Did something happen?" Gu Yuan asked with a frown.
"Yeah." Luo Yin nodded.
Gu Yuan's expression immediately became solemn, he climbed the stairs and came to the conference room.
It's said to be a conference room, but it's actually a tea room. After all, the Red Romantic Cafe rarely holds meetings, and next door to the conference room is Li Siming's office.
Seeing Gu Yuan, Zhou Zhen smiled.
"You're here? Tell me about you. You left early yesterday and asked for leave today. Do you work like this?"
Gu Yuan quickly found a seat and sat down, smiling sheepishly.
Zhou Zhen knew what Gu Yuan was doing today, so he didn't ask too many questions and went straight to the topic.
"I just received a call from the Yamen, asking for our assistance. There was a murder in the Star City Art Museum. It is most likely caused by unnatural forces."
This unnatural power is very rigorous, because in the absence of insufficient information, the other party may be a demon, a demon, a monster, or even an ordinary person who has obtained the artifact.
Judging from Zhou Zhen's words, the information currently available is indeed very little.
"Stop talking nonsense, Gu Yuan, Kong Baihe, and Wei Xuanyi, you three have just officially joined the Demon Suppression Division. This is the first case you need to solve. Don't let me down." Zhou Zhen took out the agent The captain said seriously with an imposing manner.
Normally, it's okay to laugh and joke, but now that Zhou Zhen has become the acting captain, he should be more serious when working. At least, he must make these three "newcomers" feel a sense of urgency.
"Yes!" Gu Yuan, Kong Baihe and Wei Xuanyi stood up at the same time, without any playfulness, with extremely serious expressions, "Promise to complete the mission!"
"Go, the people from the Yamen are waiting for you there."
