“It’s New Year, and our son is one year older.”
“However, there is something different about him this year.
I don’t know when did I actually learn to make cakes? "
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou sat on the sofa, looking at the red and green cake in front of them, and they both fell silent at the same time.
This cake... doesn't seem like something you should eat on New Year's Day.
The two elders looked at Zhou Bai who came out of the kitchen, and the two of them stopped talking.
“Dad, Mom, it’s time to eat.”
Zhou’s mother stood up, but Zhou’s father stayed on the sofa and refused to get up.
“Otherwise, I’d better eat the cake.
This cake looks delicious. "
Zhou’s mother was so angry when she saw that Zhou’s father was unwilling to share the joys and sorrows, she picked him up and dragged him to the dining table.
On the dining table, there is a large pot of stew and three sets of bowls and chopsticks.
Dad Zhou looked at the food on the table and wailed:
“Son, how about I cook the food from now on?”
Zhou Bai scratched his head in confusion.
“Doesn’t this look delicious?
I remember gray…
I remember that my friend loved to eat..."
Zhou's mother saw Zhou Bai's expression was a little sad, so she quickly pulled Zhou's father to sit down.
“It’s okay, mom likes to eat.”
After she finished speaking, she took a chopstick and put it in her mouth, and the smile on her face instantly froze.
"Delicious."
“Otherwise, I’d better go get that cake.”
Dad Zhou had already stood up and left the table without waiting for the others to agree.
After a while, he came over holding the cake.
“Well, it’s delicious. This is really delicious.”
Zhou’s mother secretly kicked Zhou’s father under the table and whispered:
“You mean, what I just said was delicious was a lie?”
Zhou Bai was sitting across the table. When he saw Zhou's father's face instantly wrinkled, he looked at him in confusion.
Dad Zhou quickly stuffed another large mouthful of cake into his mouth.
“Yummy, so delicious.
By the way, who taught you how to make cakes? "
Zhou Bai lowered his eyes: "A friend."
When Zhou’s mother heard this, she kicked Zhou’s father again under the table.
Dad Zhou covered his mouth in pain and pretended that nothing happened.
“Haha, it seems a little too quiet.
Otherwise, I'll turn on the TV.
Today is New Year’s Day, and the TV station should start broadcasting the party at this hour. "
He stuffed another large mouthful of cake into his mouth, stood up and walked to the living room, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
On the TV screen, the lights were on, thousands of neon lights intertwined, overlooking the bustling night scene of Daxia Kingdom.
The camera crossed the majestic rivers and mountains, and slowly advanced between high-rise buildings, letting people's smiling faces shine in the picture. Finally, the camera entered the studio hall and stayed on the host.
“The journey last year has been completed, and all the suffering and pain along the way have turned into the most beautiful memories.
Let us say goodbye to our past selves and say thank you for your hard work.
In the new year, we will welcome a new future.
I believe we will all encounter new beauty. "
The host finished reading the words, and a cheerful song sounded behind him.
A dance team jumped to the stage, and the scene turned into a sea of joy filled with flowers.
Dad Zhou followed the rhythm of the music and shook his head from side to side.
Zhou's mother shook her head helplessly when she saw his appearance.
Zhou Bai put a bite of cake into his mouth. The sweet taste spread in his mouth, making him lower his head and smile.
From time to time, there are fireworks blooming outside the window, as well as the figures of passers-by who have just returned from the carnival. Zhou Bai returned to the room, stood by the window for a while, looked at the crowd, and whispered: "Everything looks good."
It’s just that he still occasionally thinks of some people and things from the past.
Zhou Bai lay on the bed and closed his eyes amidst the sound of firecrackers setting off.
【have you slept? 】
A mechanical sound sounded in his head again.
Zhou Bai sighed, opened his eyes, and asked him:
"what happened again?"
【I assure you, I will definitely not cause any trouble this time. 】
“Why do I feel that my credibility is so low?”
【Really, I didn't lie to you. 】
【I have prepared a surprise for you this time. 】
【How about you come with me and take a look? 】
Zhou Bai knew that the system would not create any disturbance, and he could not sleep either, so he agreed to his request.
“Let me make it clear first that the holiday ends tomorrow. You can take me wherever you want, but it won’t affect my work.”
【Small problem, small problem, guaranteed not to affect. 】
As soon as it finished speaking, Zhou Bai's eyes blurred, and then he saw a whole wall of TVs appearing in front of him.
“This is...the monitoring room?”
Zhou Bai saw another red rope appear on his hand.
Beside him, there was an illusory figure with a red rope tied to his feet, floating in the air.
【Hehe, it's the control room. 】
“Is this the surprise you were talking about?”
【Not really. 】
【However, I guess you'd like to see some old friends. 】
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed lightly at the TV screen.
Then a row of TVs lit up, and familiar faces appeared in front of Zhou Bai.
“This…this is…”
He saw his parents sitting in front of the TV in the living room of a family of five, watching the New Year's party.
Yu Lili and Hao Kangcheng walked out of the kitchen, each carrying a bowl of sweet soup and delivered it to them.
He also saw the butchers in the slaughterhouse who had lost their hands and feet, gathering together to drink.
The portrait of Director Liu is hanging on the wall next to them.
When they drink, they always toast to the portrait and then drink it.
Lele became friends with a big python in the boarding school organized by Whitebeard.
It's just that he hid the boa constrictor under the quilt, and was discovered by an owl raised by the teacher. At this time, he was holding the boa constrictor and they were standing outside the dormitory.
A New Year's party was held in the Horror Tavern.
The bartender rang the bell, and people trooped onto the dance floor.
Zhou Bai looked at the TV screens one by one.
Haoyou effective pharmaceutical factory, stray animal shelter, Wu family, lunatic asylum, duty team, all appeared in front of them.
He looked at these familiar places and familiar faces in surprise, and was speechless for a long time.
【I guessed you would miss them. 】
【How about it? 】
【Isn't it a surprise? 】
Zhou Bai ignored it and continued to watch the row of TVs in front of him.
He counted the number of TVs that were on, but no matter how many times he counted, he felt that the number was wrong.
"its not right.
not enough.
Four copies missing. "
The illusory figure floating in the air turned away its head.
After being awkward for a long time, he shouted to the ceiling:
【Hey, I'm looking for you. 】
【Come out and explain yourself. 】(End of this chapter)
