In the early morning of Kowloon Park in Hong Kong, Du Liwei walked to the stone bench in the warm light cut into pieces by the leaves. He looked at the wine-red-haired girl sitting on the stone bench, squatted down, and saw her crying face hidden in her hair.

"Xiaohui?" Du Liwei greeted her, but the girl turned her face away and didn't look at him.

"Why don't we...get a room?"

Xiao Hui pouted, wiped the tears from her face, and laughed at him: "Why are you like this? You want to take me to a hotel as soon as we meet?"

"Hey, since you definitely don't want to go home anyway, and there are people at home, we can only get a room. We can't sleep on the streets."

Seeing Xiaohui finally react, Du Liwei shrugged and sat next to her, leaning against her: "You, you're really not afraid. Although the security here is okay, you're a girl late at night. What should I do if something happens?"

"Nothing will happen." Xiao Hui argued, "There's a security booth over there at the entrance."

"This won't happen again." Du Liwei's expression was very serious: "If you really want to go out for a walk alone, you must call me, you must!"

Noticing that Du Liwei's expression didn't seem like he was joking, Xiao Hui pouted: "It's all because of my dad..."

"Uncle Huang is doing this for your own good."

"What's good about that?" Xiao Hui curled her lips: "I don't want to be a baker, but he insisted on forcing me to be an apprentice..."

"He even told me to get along well with that young baker. Humph, he still looks down on you! He even scolded me when I didn't want him to!"

Du Liwei smiled and said, "I'm a mechanic. My parents died early, and I started working after graduating from junior high school. It's normal for them to look down on me. Parents always think about their children..."

"What are you talking about!" Xiao Hui was so angry that she slapped Du Liwei's head: "Why, you want me to seduce guys too!"

"How is that possible!" Du Liwei immediately hugged Xiaohui, kissed her forehead, and said, "I just want to say that you should not make things too awkward with Uncle Huang. You know that Uncle Huang has a bad heart."

"And Uncle Huang said that you should get along well with him, and he might really mean it. Otherwise, when you ran away from home and turned off your phone, he would have thought of me first and asked me to come find you. Uncle Huang also acknowledged you and me."

Although he may also hope that his daughter can meet someone better...but this is something that Du Liwei should just keep to himself and there is no need to say it out loud.

Xiao Hui hesitated and buried her head in Du Liwei's arms. Du Liwei touched her hair and asked, "What do you plan to do in the future? You can refuse the arrangement, but if you don't have a goal, Uncle Huang will definitely bother you again."

Xiaohui in his arms was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "...I want to continue learning to paint."

"Painting..." Du Liwei repeated subconsciously, and the two fell into silence. The street lamps fell on them, as if they were covered with warm armor.

After a long time, Xiaohui raised her head, and the tears on her face were gone.

“Actually, being a baker is pretty good.”

Xiao Hui stood up and stretched, then turned around and bent over to look at Du Liwei: "Let's walk around. I haven't been to a park at night yet. I'll go home after we're done."

Du Liwei nodded, and Xiaohui took his arm and walked along the road.

"The feeling at night is really different." Xiao Hui leaned her head on Du Liwei's shoulder: "Luckily you are here, otherwise I would definitely be scared. I heard that many people died when the Kowloon Walled City was demolished, and there are many corpses buried here..."

"Stop talking. I'm actually scared too. If anything happens, I'll definitely be the first one to run away."

Xiao Hui twisted Du Liwei's waist and said, "What about me?"

"Of course I'll run with you in my arms." Du Liwei said with a chuckle.

Walking into the park, Du Liwei suddenly said, "You should continue to learn painting."

Xiao Hui was slightly startled: "My dad..."

"I'll support you."

Xiao Hui chuckled: "Just take care of yourself, why do you still support me? I can support you, right? A cake maker makes more money than a car mechanic, right?"

"Actually, I'm going to change to a government job." Du Liwei said, "That job has high benefits, good treatment, and housing subsidies. When the time comes, I can dye my hair back and support you through school."

"Why do you want to dye it back? Golden color looks so good." Xiao Hui complained, "Are you serious? Are you kidding me?"

"real!"

"What kind of work is that? Tell me about it."

"You will know when the time comes. Just figure out where to study painting."

"Is it a dangerous job?" Xiao Hui suddenly became alert: "I have known you for such a long time, and you don't have any special skills except repairing cars. Or is there a rich woman supporting you?"

"How can a rich woman have such bad taste as yours?" Du Liwei chuckled and hugged Xiaohui to tease her.

"Ah, we're outside here, why are you still teasing me?"

Xiaohui struggled with a red face and forgot to ask Du Liwei. The two of them were playing and didn't pay attention to how they walked. Unknowingly, they walked off the main road and slipped into a deserted path.

"Hey, is there a ghost stall there?"

Xiaohui saw a food stall parked on the side of the road. Steam was rising from the incandescent light above the stall, and the faint aroma of food stirred the rhythm of her abdomen. A man in a jacket seemed to have just finished eating and left something behind.

"Come to think of it, I haven't had dinner yet..." Xiaohui muttered.

Du Liwei touched his stomach and said, "I went to two parks to find you. I have already digested the dish of shredded chicken and rice I had last night. Shall we go have a midnight snack?"

"I don't have any money."

"I've already said I'll support you, so it starts from now on." Du Liwei proudly took out his shriveled wallet and said, "Well... there's only a hundred yuan left... but is that enough for two plates of barbecued pork rice?"

When they walked over, they saw the pretty girl in an apron in the hawker stall.

"Oh, the boss lady is quite pretty."

"Du Liwei, what did you say?" Xiaohui twisted Du Liwei's waist hard again.

Du Liwei's smile was distorted due to the pain: "I love you the most, Xiaohui, don't be jealous, come and have a midnight snack."

At this time, Du Liwei saw the white cup on the second table and flicked it curiously: "Where did you buy it?"

"What do you want to eat?" The proprietress ignored him and asked directly.

"Let me see... Boss, you didn't even write the price."

Du Liwei found that there were no prices on the menu, and there were not many types of food on the menu. At the bottom there was a sentence:

"Whatever you want to eat, we have it. Order whatever you want."

"Liwei, look at that. You can get a free meal just by telling a story." Xiaohui was amazed when she saw a sign with eight languages ​​written on it pasted on the side of the stall.

"Oh, that's true! But I don't have a story to tell." Du Liwei thought it was a gimmick and took out his wallet directly: "One hundred yuan, two servings of barbecued pork rice, is that enough?"

The proprietress nodded, and Du Liwei continued to tease Xiaohui, trying to make her forget the unpleasantness as soon as possible.

When he turned his head, Du Liwei saw an old man wearing a cotton coat and leaning on a cane coming up the path. He was obviously walking in the direction of the ghost stall.

This old man, why is he coming to have supper so late at night?

————————

At the same time, in Tianlian College in Lianjiang City, not far from Bengang City, a man wearing Ren Suo's clothes and looking very much like Ren Suo came to Ren Suo's house with a bunch of takeouts, entered the house, turned on the lights, and said to Ren Suo, "I'm back."

"Well, let's go wash clothes." Ren Suo, who was playing games, said, "Did anything happen?"

"No."

The clone went to do the housework, while Ren Suo was watching the TV screen and recording on his phone and computer.

He's still playing Late Night.

Because he discovered a serious problem - even if he knew the exact address of the stall, he might not be able to find it.

In Shenhai and Tokyo, it was obvious that a large-scale search team had appeared, but Ren Suo had never encountered them in the game, which showed how powerful the barrier of "allowing the game to proceed smoothly" was.

So, how could Ren Suo be sure that he would encounter a lucky escape?

Therefore, he chose to replay certain days, because during these days of ghost hunting, Ren Suo met normal people who benefited from the ghost hunting files.

He asked the female store owner to chat with them to find out the common points among these ordinary people and to confirm what triggered the "encounter" with the ghost gang.

If only people who "don't know about the ghost trap" can encounter the ghost trap, then Ren Suo is doomed. However, he feels that this possibility is not high, because Dai Yuxing and Chi Hongjia clearly know about the ghost trap and can find it.

Then, Ren Suo discovered that these lucky few who encountered the ghost incident all had one thing in common: they all had the habit of eating late at night. Even if they were not night owls, they would sometimes suddenly get up in the middle of the night to cook themselves a midnight snack.

"If this is the key to escaping the ghost situation, then I will definitely be fine." Ren Suo thought.

He attached great importance to this opportunity, because if the female god of food he summoned in the future really couldn't make rice with *seasoning, then these ten days of wandering would be the only chance, and if he missed it, he would not be able to enjoy the delicious meal of the female god of food.

It was a foregone conclusion that he would look for the swindler on the tenth day, and what he was considering now was how to share the benefits.

"We need to develop the habit of eating midnight snacks... I guess they don't have this habit..."

Ren Suo thought about it and called Dong Chengling.

No response at all.

Because it was 3 a.m., it was normal for the phone to not ring in sleep mode. Dong Chengling always had a regular schedule and would not let phone messages disturb his rest.

Ren Suo then tried to call Gu Yueyan. After all, he was given the powerful skill Ear Bound. Ren Suo was always generous to those who did him a favor.

The call is connected.

"What's up so late?"

"Would you like to come over for a midnight snack? I bought some."

The other side fell into silence.

Ren Suo was not surprised. If someone suddenly came to invite you for a midnight snack at 3 a.m., not hanging up the phone would be a consideration for the relationship between the two parties.

"Just you and me?"

Ren Suo was slightly startled when he heard this response. If Gu Yueyan refused immediately, it would be within Ren Suo's expectation. Her question made Ren Suo think.

"Yeah, just you and me."

Ren Suo looked at the midnight snack and felt that it was not enough for three people. He asked his clone to buy more next time.

After hanging up the phone, Ren Suo asked loudly: "Have you washed the clothes?"

"Washed!" the clone replied, "I'm cleaning the dirt in the gap next to the washing machine!"

"How long will it take?"

“It’s done!”

"Then put your things away and put your clothes on top of the washing machine."

After a while, the clone said, "It has been done as you ordered."

"See you next time, thank you for your hard work tonight!"
