Chapter 25 Deception and being deceived (1)
People on the roadside couldn't help but gasped when they saw this thrilling scene.
Even Zhou Yan himself was trembling with fear at this moment.
After finally regaining his breath, I just scolded myself.
"Are you stupid? You have to save people in such danger. Are you addicted to rebirth?!"
While he was cursing, there was a sound of footsteps running over in a hurry.
Zhou Yan raised his head and saw the girl who just shouted 'be careful'.
He looks to be about the same age as himself. He is wearing a simple dress and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. His face is a little red, probably because he is too nervous.
"Thank you...thank you, thank you!"
Maybe it was because the girl was still in a state of confusion, and she didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just kept bowing and thanking her.
"Ah, okay, okay, be careful next time." Zhou Yan waved his hand, indicating that the other party could stop.
Then, he helped the old lady stand up.
During this process, Zhou Yan discovered that the old lady still looked like she was wandering, her eyes looking in an unfocused direction... In fact, if you look carefully, you can still see the area around the other person's eyes.
There are some tear stains.
It's like...it was a big blow.
Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows, but did not become overly curious.
When Lu encounters this kind of thing, being able to help is enough to be called a 'brave act of justice'. He really doesn't want to ask more...
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yan looked at the girl across from him with a pointed look, but found that the girl was still in shock and did not even respond to whether he should be rewarded or something.
"Okay, let's count it as the merit gained after rebirth." Zhou Yan curled his lips and handed the old man a hand.
After that, he took advantage of the situation and put on a cool and unrestrained attitude of "drawing his sword to help", turned around and walked into the crowd.
Don't tell me...even though I didn't get any reward, I was still more excited than ever after resolving a tragedy.
Zhou Yan even felt that based on what happened just now, he would definitely be able to pick up the money within three days!
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a noodle shop on the roadside.
Yes, it’s up to you whether you pick up the money or not. Let’s eat first!
With that said, Zhou Yan put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the noodle shop.
"Wait! Where's my money???"
...
...
Five minutes later, on the curb, Zhou Yan was swaying in the howling wind.
His whole body was in bad shape.
The only thing left in my pocket was the fifty-dollar bill, and it was lost!
Now that I think about it, it must have been because I made too big a move when I dragged the old lady and she flew out.
"Damn it, I can't carry it to this extent, can I?!"
Zhou Yan muttered miserably.
After complaining for a while, he didn't know what to do, so he subconsciously took out the book in his pocket and opened it.
In the past few days, Zhou Yan seemed to have developed a very strange habit, that is, when he was confused, he would first flip through a book... He couldn't explain why, but he just wanted to flip through it.
And this time...
[C, Hanying: Fast forward to being blackmailed]
Zhou Yan's face turned dark as he thought to himself, is this guy still here expecting me to be blackmailed for money?
But the result was similar. Anyway, he was penniless now. Thinking about it, he almost shed tears.
[Contractor Li Shunsheng: Yes, a box of instant noodles online costs 24 packs for only 32 yuan. I often live like this]
Zhou Yan became even more depressed: "What, are you complaining about the fact that I only have 50 yuan left in my pocket?
Also, this man seems to be a pauper. But... shouldn't the people in this book be all famous detectives who can write in the air?
Or are these people actually just a bunch of poor losers with clairvoyance?
So...who wrote the words in the book??"
Zhou Yan shook his head, feeling that such random thinking would definitely be fruitless, and it was most important to solve the problem of eating first.

[The idea of Utopia: First]
"Why is there always the one who says first? Are they competing?"
Zhou Yan just looked at it angrily...
Sudden!
[Husky in Liangshan: Blindly guess whether the woman will give this guy money or a job]
Zhou Yan looked at this sentence and scratched his head.
"Give me money? Unfortunately, she didn't give it...As for a job...Hey, where can I find someone now?"
When he thought of this, Zhou Yan wished he could give himself a slap in the face.
Seeing the look on the old lady's face, it was obvious that something big had happened! Why didn't you ask more questions at that time, just in case you could make some extra money?
Just as he was sighing...
Suddenly, Zhou Yan was stunned.
Because with his eyes wide open, he saw that on the street not far away, the girl just now was supporting the old man and slowly walked into a restaurant.
"This...this..." Zhou Yan looked at the two people and then at the book in his hand.
"This is God's will!"
He stood up after a while and ran over.
...
10 minutes later, in the restaurant.
There are three people sitting at a table.
The girl with black-rimmed glasses, the old man who was still haunted, and... Zhou Yan who was devouring his food and filling the table with food.
After the unification of the world, food from all over the world seems to have been integrated.
Zhou Yan ate steak, drank miso soup, had a mouthful of salad leaves, and finally ordered a dumpling in sour soup.
He was really hungry, and the girl opposite him was stunned when he saw the wind and clouds.
Finally, after a cup of hot soy milk, Zhou Yan leaned back in his chair with a satisfied look on his face, holding a toothpick in his mouth.
The girl saw that Zhou Yan had finished eating, and then she dared to say a word.
"Just now... thank you very much. May I ask, what should I call you?"
Zhou Yan raised his eyes and took a serious look at the girl in front of him.
She is not tall, but her skin is very good. Perhaps because of her personality, this woman is unwilling to show off her beauty.
Her hair was tied back casually, a pair of glasses frames almost covered most of her face at the back, and her clothes were extremely ordinary.
emmm...an introverted girl.
"Just call me Zhou Yan." He said leaning on the chair.
After all, he saved the old lady's life and was regarded as a benefactor, so Zhou Yan ate this meal without hesitation.
Of course, even after eating, Zhou Yan did not forget the reminder in the book.
He was going to ask what happened to this old man. This was really not gossip, but he wanted to see if he could get some money... What if this old lady really had something to help?
It's okay if I don't ask, but when I ask... Zhou Yan was shocked!
Not only is this old lady in trouble, but she is also in trouble!
She has saved a lifetime of money and a pension, totaling more than 200,000!
