Chapter 223, The Old Woman and the Beast
"What? Grandpa and grandma are coming to play at home again?"
In the early morning, in the hotel suite in Raleigh, the capital of North Carolina, Alice shouted at the telephone: "Oh, I'm here to see Caesar again. Where is Oscar and Hannah? One plays games and the other chats with grandma? Oh, OK, I can get home before the evening, eat fire* and hung up the phone. She said to the girl lying on the sofa: "Here, someone is here in my house again."
On the sofa, Ashley was still lying around with a cowboy: "I'm so envious. My parents can't be idle for many days. How long does your family have? How many times has this year my grandparents visited?"
Alice pointed: "That's... the fourth time, they actually like to be quiet. They usually stay in the Mississippi River and don't come out. The frequency is already high."
Ashley stood up, and her long legs accounted for more and more of her body: "It's all because of visiting Caesar? The little guys are more charming than you three, look at them fascinating!"
Alice was about to speak when Sissi walked out of the bedroom, holding a tightly sealed plastic package in her hand: "Your buds are packed."
"Thank you, my dear, kiss~"
Alice took the bag, not only was it quite large, but it was also very heavy, and it contained the magical flower that everyone found in the swamp.
Xixi hugged her arms and said, "Although you brought it back, do you have enough equipment to unravel its secrets? If you want to prepare, we should prepare all kinds of messy experimental equipment like high school chemistry teachers, right?"
The last one of Wuya walked out of the bedroom and chuckled, "The girl who studies liberal arts has difficulty understanding science, right?"
Xixi snorted and straightened her head: "Of course, my English literature class is A. Since my talent is used in that aspect, isn't it normal to not understand chemical experiments?"
Alice, carrying a bag, said with a relaxed look: "If you want to set up a laboratory, I have a place. A few days ago, I built a small wooden house in the mountains north of our Los Angeles, more than a mile away from the Aerodynamic Laboratory. You guys say, isn't that a great place?"
"What? Cabin? When did you do it?"
Xixi was really shocked now and walked to Alice three times in a row: "You didn't even tell me about such a big thing?"
"Hey... it's not too late to tell now, right?"
"It's too late! I'll punish you...I'll punish you...What should I punish you!?"
Looking at the cute look of Sissi glaring at her eyes, Alice laughed: "Please punish me to invite all of you to go to that wooden house for a walk! Wuya, what do you think?"
As she said that, she deliberately looked at Maiya.
"If you have bought enough furniture, of course it's OK."
Wuya smiled slightly and put her arm on Ashley's shoulder: "But if there are any ulterior secrets inside, such as the Texas Chainsaw Madman's tool for committing crimes, I'm not polite."
Ashley stuck out her tongue.
Alice smiled foolishly, and Sissi kept giggling.
Everyone arrived at the airport quickly and boarded the Boeing 737 flying to Los Angeles. No one was a fool who would be wronged, so the tickets they booked were all the default first class. So since that's the case, Alice had enough time to study her baby.
After the plane had taken off smoothly, she took out the flower from her suitcase.
In the sturdy plastic bag, the white buds are harmless, and at most the developed root system is so scary. Alice is also confused about this magical little thing.
Of course, no one can prove that this guy is the creator of the super disappearance fifteen years ago. Everything is just Alice's own speculation. If you want to say something strange about this flower, except for its developed root system, the only thing that Alice has experienced the deepest is that it is not afraid of its own mental power scanning.
Sound familiar?
God knows if this flower has anything to do with Caesar. For example, not only does this flower grow in the swamps of North Carolina, but there is also the same species in the forest at the bottom of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa, and Caesar ate one?
"You said, what kind of flower is this?"
Alice's question attracted the little head of Sissi next to her: "Lily."
"Why?"
"No, that's how I named it."
Wuya said without raising her head, "Istanbul Flower."
"Hey, what's that?"
"Well, I'm reading a novel from Istanbul right now."
It’s useless to think about these things now. At least you have to wait until you return to Los Angeles, build the cabin into a chemistry laboratory, and then slice it before you talk about it.
Alas? What was the hut originally going to do?
Well, it is certainly dispensable to deliver goods to the drug dealers in Albuquerque. In fact, Alice has long forgotten about paying half of the goods before and delivering the second batch of goods later.
Although the group of drug dealers may still be waiting for their homes to come, they may still be trying to find out their whereabouts...
Well, so this is called the emperor's anger and bleeding thousands of miles away. Alice can do something big with just a little idea, and then she can casually abandon her previous plan because of a casual idea. She has bought a wooden house, and even if it is not used for drug manufacturing, isn't it good to transform it into an ordinary chemical laboratory?
A few hours later, when the airline lunch was slurry in everyone's belly, the Boeing 737 slowly landed at Los Angeles International, and everyone returned to their hometown safely.
"Then, comrades~!"
As the crowded crowd walked towards the exit, Alice waved her hand and said proudly: "It's too late today, let's meet in the cabin tomorrow! Wuya, you know the location, so I'll ask you to drive one by one to pick up people."
Wuya walked quickly with her small suitcase: "No problem, but..."
"But what?"
However, Xixi's hand holding her arm was already clenched tightly, and this is what Wuya pointed to.
"Yes, Alice."
She stared at someone with a bad look: "I didn't tell me such a big secret, but took Wuya to visit first. What do you mean? Well? The little secret between you and Wuya? Your little love nest? Are you having sex inside if you have nothing to do?"
Good guy, these words made Alice blush. She quickly slapped Sissi in her mind: "What are you talking nonsense!"
Then, her eyes rolled: "It's obviously my little love nest with you!"
"Damn it! Disgusting! Stay away from me!"
“Wow hahahahaha~!
However, even though she laughed, Alice was teasing Sissi, she also discovered a slightly strange scene.
Wuya and Ashley, who were following behind them, actually looked at each other with an unusual look.
What are they thinking?
But Alice didn't have time to think about that, because the pager on her waist suddenly rang.
"What's up?"
She picked up the pager casually and looked over.
Then, his face suddenly became somber.
"Alice, have you arrived at the airport? Go home quickly, grandma almost got into a car accident!"
“holy…”
Seeing Alice suddenly stop and her face changed drastically, the others asked in unison: "What's wrong!"
"……call."
Alice put away the pager: "Luckily my mother is a lawyer. She said it was almost done, so it must be fine."
Xixi blinked: "It's okay?"
Alice thought about the language organization order: "It's almost, it's almost, my grandma almost got into a car accident, and Sophie was urging me to go back."
This is a huge thing!
Without saying anything, Maiya immediately started her Hummer parked at the airport, and the other girls had no intention of going home first. The high-fuel-consuming off-road vehicle was like a beast that ran away from its reins, speeding towards the direction of Winton Street, Culver City!
In the quiet residential community, in the quiet evening, all the atmosphere was destroyed by a beast that suddenly broke into. When the yellow military chariot stopped in front of Room 15, Alice did not need to jump out of the car first, and the door was already opened.
Sophie was standing at the door: "Oh, baby, don't be too..."
"Where is grandma?"
"Inside the house."
Without saying a word, Alice broke into the entrance hall, and the friends behind her walked into the house one after another. Fortunately, they were not as frivolous as someone and still remember to take off their shoes.
In the living room, when I saw my granddaughter walking in recklessly, the old man sitting against the sofa raised his head: "Oh, Vivi, come and give me a hug."
Alice immediately came over and said, "Grandma, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay."
The answer was grandpa. Although he had been a coolie in his early years, he was full of energy over the years: "Your grandma was shocked when she was not hit by a car."
Coincidentally, the old couple had both surnames Wang, grandpa Wang Zhifu and grandma Wang Aihua, both of whom were very old-Chinese names, after all, they were all people from that era. Moreover, although they had settled in the United States since the 1930s, they had never given themselves any English names for fifty years.
"What was going on at that time?"
The friends had already gathered together. Sophie walked into the living room. James, Oscar and Hannah, who were originally on the second floor, also walked down the stairs. What a good guy, when something happened to the old man, the whole family would be shocked. This is such a heartwarming scene.
"It's actually very simple. There's a car that doesn't brake enough and almost hits grandma."
Although he said this, James' expression clearly told everyone that every time this matter is over,
So Alice raised her eyebrows and said authentic Chinese: "So?"
The four elders at home looked moved.
