Chapter 3 The oil bottle that does not want to go home
The oil bottle obviously didn't want to go home yet, and only said that he would go back until the Chinese New Year was approaching. I had no choice but to go home with the oil bottle. Before entering the door, I repeatedly told him not to leak the door when he pressed the door.
Of course, my family was very happy to see me come back, and said that I came back early this time. As for the oil bottle, I said that he was a companion who ran the business together, and the oil bottle showed his almost superb ability again at this moment, and my parents quickly had a very good impression of the oil bottle.
"Are you going to go out when you come back this time?" Mom asked.
I shook my head, "I'm not leaving." I want to rest well at home and be a lazy person. ”
"It's good not to go out. Honestly stay at home. I said, why do you look like you're down every time you come back? Is this hard work for you? Mom asked.
I glanced at the oil bottle, and the oil bottle said, "It's quite bitter." It's windy and sunny, but it's good to make some money. ”
"Don't do it if it's too hard." Dad's voice came, "Look at you like this, I thought you just crawled out of the rubble of that building in the United States." ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Mom glared at Dad when she heard it.
I looked at the oil bottle again, "What... What America? "Actually, when I heard them talk about America, the first thing I thought of was John. It can't be John.
"You don't know? The United States was bombed. Said it was hit by a plane. The buildings collapsed, and many people died. Mom said.
Dad came out with two bowls of noodles, "There are still many firefighters and policemen, and none of them came out to save people." ”
"Really... Really? I took the noodles from the oil bottle, "It's not like you guys watching the movie, take the movie seriously." ”
"Really. Can it be a movie in the news? At first, I didn't believe it, but now it's all about TV and newspapers. You really don't know? Dad said.
"Yes, yes. At first I thought it was a fake... How do you know it's true. The oil bottle quickly took over.
"It's noon, and that's what the noon news should say, just look at it. I said, what kind of business are you running? Are they all in the mountains? Dad said as he turned on the TV.
It's really being said in the news. A video of the scene was also shown. The oil bottle beside me said, "That's the World Trade Center... I've been. It's true? ”
"Who did this? It's amazing. "I was completely blown away. Who can make a Yankee like this? This seems to be a copy of Pearl Harbor...
"And that Pentagon of the Americans was also hit." Dad added, "Americans bully people, and now retribution is coming." ”
"What retribution?" My mother said dissatisfiedly, "What kind of ability is it to bomb ordinary people?" Take revenge on whoever you have a grudge with. What kind of ability is it to blow up these defenseless ordinary people? ”
"Good, good. I mean bombing the Pentagon. I didn't say anything about the people in those two buildings. Dad quickly explained.
"Do you think John will come to you?" The oil bottle whispered.
"Eat your noodles. Less nonsense," I glared at him.
I had planned to get a good night's sleep after eating. But the oil bottle is not a safe person, so I have to take him out for a walk. In desperation, I had to take a shower, change my clothes and go out.
"I said you really don't want to go home?" I asked.
&
nbsp; The oil bottle looked at me, "Oops... I've only been here for a long time, and you're going to drive me away? ”
"Don't talk nonsense. I'm afraid you'll get me into trouble. I can stress to you again that no one in this city knows about the things we do, not to mention my family. You're fine, you like to talk nonsense, I'm afraid it's all a story. I said.
"Then others have to believe it. Don't say it, others will definitely listen to the story, who will believe it? After dragging the oil bottle, he looked at the road, "Where is your supermarket, take me to see it." ”
"What? Are you going to go shopping? I asked.
"I'm going to see if your shop is hiring. I'm going to be a tally clerk or something. ”
"Okay. . . Even if it's a tally clerk. The porter is very good, and there is no salary, only food and housing. I said.
"You know you're violating labor laws?"
Just as I was walking to the supermarket with you and you, a person called out to me from behind.
"Xiao Linzi. Are you back? ”
When I heard this, my hairs stood on end. I really want to come to whatever I want. I turned to look behind me, "Hehe. Uncle Jiang, what a coincidence. ”
"What's the coincidence? I walk this road three or four times a day, if not eight times a day. Can this also be called a coincidence? Are you going to the store? Uncle Jiang looked at the oil bottle next to me and said to me.
I quickly nodded, "Yes." I pointed to the oil bottle next to me, "This is the younger brother of a friend of mine, who came to visit us." I just happened to bring it back when I got home. After I finished speaking, I looked at the oil bottle and said, "Call uncle." ”
"Hello uncle. My name is Liu Xiao and I am a college student. This time I'm here for a tour. Said the oil bottle.
"Oh. Hello hello hello. University student? Shouldn't school start school now for tourism? Uncle Jiang asked.
"Forehead 。。。。。" I glanced at the oil bottle, you said you were okay to talk about college students? Are you a college student?
The oil bottle smiled calmly, "I studied ancient architecture." You have to come out and walk more and see more. ”
"Oh. . . I see. Ancient buildings? Yes, there is a future... Now that I'm learning everything, I'm going to learn everything, and I think I'll soon not even know my last name. Uncle Jiang looked at me after making a fuss and said, "It just so happens that I'm going to play chess, and I'm going in the same direction as you." Let's go together. ”
Soon I found out that the chess stand was just across the road from my supermarket. There were three or four chessboards in a row, and a group of uncles and uncles were fighting fiercely there, and there were even more onlookers.
"Huh? It's fun. The oil bottle said as he quickened his pace and walked there.
"Why are you going? Didn't you go to the supermarket? "I called.
"Wait. I'll take a look at chess first. The oil bottle replied.
"It's fine. Such a big person, you are still afraid that he will lose it. Besides, I'll watch. You're busy. After Uncle Jiang finished speaking, he quickly followed the footwork of dragging the oil bottle and walked across the street.
I went around the supermarket. When my father saw me coming, he said it was okay and told me to go back and rest more. After a few small talks, I went to the chess stand opposite. At this moment, the oil bottle was already sitting on a small stool and began to fight. And his opponent is Uncle Jiang.
It's really not a fuel-efficient lamp... My teeth itch when I see his dedication. I was hiding from the one sitting opposite, but you were good enough to sit across from someone and play chess with someone. Ay.... I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At this moment, I heard several uncles next to me discussing the World Trade Center crash. It occurred to me that John had really contacted me like a drag bottle. So I glanced at the oil bottle, turned around and went to a nearby Internet café, and quickly logged into my mailbox.
After the page opened completely, I found that John had not contacted me. There is nothing of value other than some inexplicable spam. I unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, if according to normal logic, it is impossible for the Yankees not to retaliate after suffering such a big loss, which may be a gluttonous feast for the entire industry that takes money and sells his life. And someone like John, who has a government background, is even less likely to stay out of the situation. Maybe he's retired. It's fine not to contact me, or I'll have to turn him down.
I turned off my email and went through the latest news, and about half an hour later I was back in the supermarket. At this time, the oil bottle was already busy in the supermarket. It should be something new, and he's helping to move it.
"Finished playing?" I asked.
"It's over. You don't play chess very well here. He said as he carried things, and his tone was quite proud.
"Uncle Jiang didn't say anything to you?" I asked.
The oil bottle looked at me and said, "No." What can be said? Just play chess. After speaking, he stopped what he was doing and whispered, "Are you afraid of him?" ”
I glared at him, "The one who fought ... To say who is most likely to see me here. And you, only he can see that we are different. Let me tell you, usually put on your clothes well, don't be shirtless, don't show those scars on your body, you can deceive ordinary people, those who have fought are not easy to fool. ”
"Don't worry... I'm not a child. I've been on the rivers and lakes. Understood. ”
I nodded, "That's good." Don't be careless anyway. Again, it's okay to go home early. ”
"Okay. I know. ”
