Chapter 2453 Redemption

"Thanks."

Zhang Long leaned against the bed with a cigarette in his mouth, without saying a word.

At the moment he is free.

The room was extremely quiet. To Ning Che, it seemed like two worlds.

Zhang Long sitting on the ground was like a long movie, which he couldn't understand, neither could Tao Cheng.

Maybe only Lin Yi can understand, maybe only when he comes can Zhang Long be so calm.

If it were someone else, it might be counterproductive.

But at this moment, he was sitting there quietly smoking a cigarette.

The soul is redeemed at this moment.

"I want to tell you something, will you believe me?"

"Will do."

"Song Guofu was not killed by me."

"Didn't you kill it?"

This kind of rhetoric surprised Lin Yi, which he had never thought of.

"I knew about your meeting, but at that time, I just wanted to scare Song Guofu and remind other villagers not to talk nonsense. I also knew that that night, he drank too much in the middle of eating and fell into a ditch on the side of the road. The man died, and then I followed the plan, broke his neck, and pretended to be a homicide, so as to silence the people in Jindou Village."

"So that's what happened."

"It's a coincidence that even I can't believe it, so I can't guarantee that you will believe it, but these are not important anymore."

"Indeed, by this time, a lot of things really don't matter."

"One more thing, I want to ask you for help."

"Are your adoptive parents? I will take good care of them." Lin Yi said:

"I still need your old house. I will often send someone to clean it."

Zhang Long was stunned for a moment, "Thank you."

"I heard that your adoptive parents are not too young. If conditions permit, I will apply to the higher authorities and try to let you send them a ride, and then implement it, but I can't guarantee that it can be done."

After a long silence, Lin Yi finally responded with two words of thanks.

Before he knew it, it was already dawn outside, and Lin Yi got up and stretched himself.

"There is no permanent banquet in the world, it is dawn."

"Well, I see." Zhang Long said lightly, "Can you let me finish this cigarette?"

"Okay, we'll go out and wait for you."

Lin Yi gave the two of them a look, and walked out of the room together.

"The matter here should be dealt with. Do you want to go back to Yanjing?" Ning Che said:

"The recent international situation is a bit abnormal."

"Why is it abnormal?"

"People from the old America and island countries frequently appear in Africa. This is not a good signal."

"It's a messy place, isn't it?"

"Chaos is chaos, but in such an extraordinary period, we must pay attention to any troubles."

Lin Yi nodded, "Zhong Hai has a lot of things waiting for me to deal with, so I won't go to Yanjing for the time being. If you have something to do, please call me as soon as possible."

"good."

"We borrowed a car from the military, do you want to keep it for you?"

"No, just drive away. A taxi is also very convenient. We can just take a taxi."

Ning Che looked towards the door, "What are you going to do with him? Is it okay to be alone?"

"Don't worry about me, don't worry."

"Then let's go first." Ning Che said:

"If you need our help, please call me as soon as possible."

"good."

After the two chatted for a while, Ning Che and Tao Cheng left.

Lin Yi stood outside the room, waiting silently.

About ten minutes later, Zhang Long came out from inside.

With a calm demeanor and a smile on his face, it was like seeing an old friend.

"Let's go."

The two went out and took a taxi.

But while driving, Zhang Long noticed something was wrong.

"Isn't this the direction to Jinling?"

"It's all at the door of the house, so I have to go back and have a look." Lin Yi said with a smile:

"We're not Dayu controlling the floods, so there's no need to go through the house three times without entering."

Zhang Long was silent, he didn't know what to say, so he could only answer in silence.

Ten minutes later, the taxi arrived at the entrance of the village, and the two walked for five or six minutes to Zhang Long's home.

The house is a newly built red brick house. It doesn't look very grand, and it is enough for the old couple to live in.

The two walked to the yard together. In the small vegetable garden, a middle-aged couple was bent over and busy.

Judging by age, they are almost seventy years old.

"Get emotional and don't make them worry."

Zhang Long exhaled and a smile appeared on his face.

"Dad, Mom."

Hearing someone talking, the busy old couple turned their heads one after another.

Seeing Zhang Long's face immediately beamed with joy.

"son!"

Because Lin Yi was by his side, the emotions of the old couple were somewhat restrained.

"Who is this…"

"he is…"

Zhang Long hesitated to speak, he didn't know what to say.

"Uncle and aunt, I am his comrade in arms."

While speaking, Lin Yi took out his military ID to prove his identity.

"The comrades-in-arms are coming!"

There were smiles on the faces of the old couple again, and they warmly greeted Lin Yi to enter the house.

"I haven't eaten yet, let's go prepare meals."

"No need, I ate it on the way here."

"That's on the way. When I got home, I have to eat more."

Without giving Lin Yi a chance to refuse, the old couple went to the kitchen to get busy.

Not long after, four dishes were served.

"There is nothing delicious in the country, you just have a bite, and my son will take you to eat something good later."

"That's all it takes."

Since the meal was served, Lin Yi didn't refuse, and even drank some wine with Zhang Long's adoptive father, as a guest and host.

"Uncle and aunt, I came here today because I have something to tell you."

"What did you say?"

"Our leader said that he wants the captain to go back and continue serving. The country still needs him, so we come..."

The old couple were taken aback for a moment, they didn't expect this kind of thing to happen.

Zhang Long was also taken aback.

He held the wine glass tightly, his eyes moist.

"This is a good thing. My son is useful to the country, and we are both happy."

Lin Yi's lie was full of loopholes, but the old couple didn't notice it.

They are all simple farmers and don't know this slightly complicated thing.

"Our leader is very embarrassed~lightnovelpub.net~ so I can't go home often."

"It's okay, it's okay, we both have hard bones, so we don't need him to take care of us." Zhang Long's adoptive father said:

"Besides, he has been working outside all these years, and he doesn't come home very often, so he might as well contribute to the country."

"Uncles and aunts can think so, so I feel relieved. The leader above returned home for three days. He can be at home and accompany you well."

"It should be. If the country needs it, we must not hold back." Zhang Long's adoptive father patted him on the shoulder, "Son, after returning home, you must train well and don't embarrass me."

"Understood, Dad."

"Uncle and aunt, eat first, I have other things to do, so let's go first."

"Go?" This surprised Zhang Long.
