Chapter 1222 The Curtain Falls (Two Updates!)
In this way, until late at night, the curtain parted.
Yi Xia has never liked things that are too complicated.
Therefore, we won’t bother too much in this regard.
The most important task of this banquet has been completed, and Yi Xia will no longer be immersed in many compliments.
Naturally, not all practitioners are good at dancing.
But those who were sent to participate in this banquet were obviously not like this.
In fact, the banquet continued until tomorrow, which was nothing to Yi Xia.
However, after realizing that the sky in Liucheng on Earth had gradually become darker, Yi Xia did not continue.
After many guests left, Yi Xia returned to Earth with Yi Jiao.
As for Cang Zhong and Yuan Xian?
Except for Xie Xia, who treated her a little longer, the others had already left.
It's not that they don't want to stay longer, but the actual situation cannot allow it.
The cooking that uses the flesh and blood of powerful wild creatures as raw materials has been softened by Yi Xia's treatment.
But obviously, this is not too much that they can bear.
As for why Yi Jiao was able to stay until the end, it was because Yi Xia specially prepared a batch of food for this purpose.
After officially joining the family, she will naturally not miss these ordinary expenses.
In this way, Yi Xia, who returned to Earth, stretched her waist, then looked at the sky outside, turned to look at Yi Jiao beside her and said:
"It's getting late, you should go home, so as not to worry your parents."
Yi Jiao nodded obediently.
Yi Xia, who returned to Earth, seemed to be just as she remembered.
And the image of Xia Wu who had just been at the banquet, attracting people from all walks of life and space to celebrate, gradually overlapped, which made Yi Jiao feel an inexplicable and subtle sense of déjà vu.
But now that Yi Xia said this.
Full of doubts, she had no choice but to go home honestly.
At this time, the clouds were opening and the fog was clearing, and the bright moonlight was falling from the thick clouds.
It seemed that the heavy rain mentioned in the weather forecast finally fell.
It's just a little later than the time mentioned in the weather forecast.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, the originally dark mountain road suddenly became clear.
It was as if the bright moon that day was lighting up her way home...
If before this, Yi Jiao would not have thought too much and just felt that she was lucky.
But now, Yi Jiao could not control herself from thinking deeply.
So, she stopped on the road, bowed to the bright moon in the sky, and then continued walking towards home.
It was already late at night, and the night markets in the suburbs were naturally not as developed as those in the city center.
At this point, the stall has almost been closed.
Of course, in a while, the owners of various breakfast shops will get up and prepare materials to add the popularity that this quiet suburb deserves.
But in this gap, the suburbs of Liucheng are in a state of relative silence.
Yi Jiao, who came down from the mountain, walked alone on such a quiet street, but she didn't feel afraid at all.
Maybe there is none, just people...
And just when Yi Jiao was about to walk through a dark alley and take a shortcut home.
Suddenly she heard the sound of a car.
Then, she turned her head and watched a vehicle drive around the corner with a light that was reassuring to law-abiding people.
After that, he stopped next to her.
The window rolled down, and a middle-aged policeman looked at Yi Jiao and waved:
"Girl, why are you running out so late at night?"
Yi Jiao recognized her. She was Uncle Zong, the policeman in this area.
Although I was transferred here for less than half a year.
But because he often went to her flower shop to buy flowers for his wife, he became quite familiar with Yi's father.
Sometimes, I would come over to have dinner at Yi Jiao’s house.
"Uncle Zong."
Yi Jiao shouted politely first, then organized her words in her mind, and then said:
"I just went to play with a brother and forgot about the time."
Uncle Zong smiled after hearing this:
"Yes, I remember that you have finished the college entrance examination and it's time to have some fun."
"We're just going to your house, let's get in the car."
As he spoke, he got out of the passenger seat and crowded with several young policemen behind him.
Seeing this, Yi Jiao couldn't refuse, so she followed him into the car.
From the corner of her eye, Yi Jiao caught a glimpse of one of the young police officers who seemed to be quite curious. She wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a slap on the thigh by her uncle.
Listening to the dull sound of the other party's thighs, it gives people a subtle sense of déjà vu that seems to have a bit of personal grudge...
At this time, Uncle Zong spoke first:
"Xiao Li, I read the preliminary review report you wrote yesterday. There has been progress, but there are still many problems..."
As soon as Uncle Zong opened his mouth, the other police officers in the car immediately fell silent.
Yi Jiao even felt that the driver could not help but straighten his posture a lot...
After Uncle Zong explained some relatively ordinary contents such as main body format and basic logic, the car quickly drove to Yi Jiao's flower shop.
"Thank you, Uncle Zong, sorry for bothering everyone."
After Yi Jiao got out of the car, she thanked Uncle Zong and several other police officers.
At this time, she found that the lights were still on at home, and it seemed that her parents had not gone to bed waiting for her to come home.
Yi Jiao couldn't help but feel some instinctive guilt.
She had never come home so late before.
But soon, this guilty conscience was forgotten by Yi Jiao.
She was thinking about how to share her confusion and emotions with her parents...
At this moment, Yi's father, who heard the noise, opened the door in his pajamas. He was stunned when he saw the police car outside.
Then he reacted, walked down and thanked the uncle in the car.
It was too late at this time. The uncle said that he also had official business to attend to. He didn't talk to Yi's father for long and drove away.
Then, Yi Jiao followed Yi's father back home.
Yi's mother, who was a light sleeper, got up from the bed and looked at Yi Jiao who had returned home.
She probably wanted to say something, then paused and pointed to the bathroom:
"The clothes are over there for you. Take a shower and go to bed early."
At this time, Yi Jiao really wanted to tell her parents about her experience today, which was a bit pale to describe as strange.
But seeing the tiredness on her mother and father's faces, she nodded.
On the other side, in the police car that had already driven away, Uncle Zong suddenly stopped explaining the report and looked at Xiao Li next to him with a serious expression:
"Forgot the discipline?"
Xiao Li was stunned by Uncle Zong's sudden change of topic, and then he suddenly reacted, sweat dripping from his forehead at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Captain, I..."
For most beings, his actions just now were not a fault at all.
Or it should be said that it was a very common action, and no one would think there was anything wrong with it.
But for the relevant special departments with sufficiently strict requirements.
Because the factors currently faced are too large and complex, a corresponding solid and tight order is needed as a protection.
Any negligence may lead to irreparable heavy consequences.
But after that, they will no longer be responsible for this.
Uncle Zong looked at the familiar street scene outside with a deep gaze.
He knew that the other party's level had been raised to a level that he could not even check now...
