Chapter 1: The Return of the Strong
Taxis travel on the highway to Los Angeles.
Ye Ren sat in the co-pilot's seat, looking at the scenery outside through the window.
Ten years on, this once familiar city in the Central Plains has now become unrecognizable, the dense low-rise houses in memory have been replaced by high-rise buildings, and the former suburban farmland has now been turned into an industrial park......
The city has changed, are all the relatives in this city okay?
A pleasant ringing of his cell phone interrupted his thoughts.
He looked at the name displayed on the screen, smiled and connected the phone: "Xiaoding, what, isn't the method I taught you last time good?"
There was a hearty laugh on the other end of the phone: "Boss, haven't you joined the mercenary alliance to watch the news recently? I used the tricks you taught me to make dumplings for the guys with the highest eyes in the Blackwater Company, and I have successfully obtained a five-year security contract for the UAE royal family." How's that, boss, you've always wanted, why don't you go back and do it with you?"
Security contracts?
Ye Ren's heart fluttered.
For many years, he has always wanted to bring his brothers out of the mercenary adventures of fighting and killing, so that everyone can change their identities and live a more stable and normal life.
Even, before that incident, he had already consciously contacted several Middle Eastern royal families and made a lot of preparations, but he didn't expect that after a few months of his departure, it finally became a reality......
After thinking about it, he still shook his head, sighed and said: "Forget it, I've been abroad long enough, and I can finally come back, and now I just want to spend more time with my family, and I don't want anything else for the time being." ”
The other end of the phone was silent for a while, and said: "Boss, don't I know you yet?" You are simply born for the battlefield, the ordinary life in the city is not suitable for you at all, as long as you are willing to come back and lead everyone, I believe that in a few years, we can become the largest mercenary team in the world." However, I can also hear it, you are in a bad mood now, I guess you don't have this mind, or this, I happen to know a security company in Los Angeles, and the other party has always wanted me to introduce a few people who can support the scene, or boss, you can take them to play for a few days to change your mood?"
seemed to know that he would refuse, and the other end of the phone hurriedly added: "By the way, although this security company is small, it is very special, I believe that the boss will definitely not regret it." ”
"How special can a security company be?" Ye Ren smiled, this kid was tempting himself.
However, thinking that after returning to Los Angeles, if I have nothing to do for a long time, my parents may be worried, and I really need a light job to pass the time, so after hesitating, I agreed: "I'll try, but you must not get to the bottom of me, just say that I am an ordinary veteran, I don't want to take on any more responsibilities, too tired." ”
There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Interesting, so interesting, the number one master in the mercenary world actually went to a small security company to pretend to be a newcomer, haha, if it weren't for the hundreds of brothers here to take care of, I would like to go and have fun with you, boss, haha, it's so interesting......"
Say whatever you want!
After Ye Ren wrote down the address of the security company, he silently hung up the phone, looked at Los Angeles in front of him, which was getting closer and closer, and let out a long sigh.
After ten years, can I really adapt to this new life?
Hometown timidity.
In the past, Ye Ren always thought that this was the disease-free ** of boring literati, but now, when he got rid of the prosperity of the new city and walked through the dense alleys of the old city, getting closer and closer to home, he really understood Song Zhiwen's mood at that time.
At this moment, it is the evening of early autumn, the office workers who flock down from the bus, the housewives who pick up their children, and the familiar local sounds linger in their ears, which is so kind.
On the few old trees in the alley, as well as on the mottled walls, the graffiti of childhood is still faintly defensible, although it has gone through the dust of the years.
Turning a corner, Ye Ren's pace became faster and faster.
Finally, after passing through a large locust tree the size of a bucket, he came to the gatehouse with blue bricks and red tiles.
For ten years, he has dreamed of this gatehouse almost every night, the courtyard behind this gatehouse, the sky in the courtyard, and the relatives in the courtyard.
On the blue-gray wall, there was a big word 'demolition' circled.
His heart trembled, and he stepped onto the five-story bluestone steps, reaching out and gently knocking on the dark red door.
The courtyard, where the noise could still be heard, suddenly became quiet.
I waited for a long time, but no one came to answer the door.
He was stunned for a moment, the force in his hand increased slightly, and he knocked on the door again.
Finally, a string of small footsteps came to the door, and a timid female voice asked, "Who?"
The voice was very crisp and unfamiliar, and Ye Ren had never heard it in his memory.
He cleared his throat and replied, "I'm Ye Ren, does Mr. Ye Cunde still live here?"
"Bell ......"
Suddenly, there was the sound of an iron basin falling to the ground in the courtyard.
Immediately afterward, the woman behind the door let out an exclamation.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Ye Ren's eyebrows trembled, the palm of his hand pressed on the door shook slightly, and the bolt with the thickness of his arm was broken by him, and he pushed the door and walked in.
In front of her, a gray-haired middle-aged woman was sitting on the ground in the middle of the courtyard, and next to her, a girl with clear eyebrows was supporting her, and the two women stared at Ye Ren who walked in with shocked and incredible eyes.
"Mom!"
The suitcase that Ye Ren was carrying fell to the ground, he took a few steps forward, suddenly pounced, fell to his knees, walked to the middle-aged woman, and hugged her: "Mom, I'm back!"
This strong man who has been struggling on the battlefield for ten years, this man who talks and laughs in the rain of bullets, has hovered on the edge of life and death countless times, but has not shown the slightest weakness.
But at this moment, in front of his mother, who had been reunited after a long absence, he could no longer suppress his feelings, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"San'er, are you really San'er?"
Ma Lianying stretched out her hand and stroked Ye Ren's face, cautiously, for fear that this would be another hallucination that would make her cry every time.
"Mom, it's me, I'm your third son, I'm back, I'll never leave again!" Ye Ren wiped away his tears and nodded heavily.
"San'er, why did you come back? What have you been doing all these years?"
Ma Lianying came back to her senses, and began to cry as she spoke: "Your father and I have searched so many places, but why can't we find you? Some people say that you are dead and your body has been thrown into the Yellow River, and some people say that you have committed a crime and fled abroad and dare not come back." But my mother didn't believe it, and my mother's three sons would definitely come back. We've been forced to demolish here, but my mother really doesn't want to leave, because I'm worried that you won't be able to find our home when you come back......"
Ye Ren lowered his head, knelt in front of his mother, and let his mother count him down over and over again.
It's been ten years, and I've been away from home for too long, and I owe too much to my parents.
"Yo, I haven't come to the door yet, why are you crying?"
Just when Ye Ren finally saw his mother, he found that his mother was already gray-haired.
It was when he felt so guilty that he hadn't been able to contact his family for ten years.
A shrill voice came from behind.
He could clearly feel that his mother's thin body trembled violently with fear after hearing the voice.
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he turned his head to look—
