Chapter 309 Linyin Town, Sunshine Valley

Thanks to the hard work and pioneering efforts of our colonial ancestors (killing people and skinning them) when the country was founded hundreds of years ago, today’s federal territory is vast, with vast latitudes between the north and south, and very different climates.

In late December, the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia were already covered in falling jade, but the coastal plains of Texas had not yet seen a single snowflake.

The early morning sun only peeked out from the horizon, and the pitifully thin raven-white frost marks on the ground disappeared without a trace.

As one of the most important holidays in the Commonwealth, people start shopping for family needs in the week leading up to Christmas.

For metropolitan residents who have abundant supplies, this work may only take an afternoon in a supermarket, but if they want to complete the same task, people in rural towns will have to spend ten times the effort to barely complete it. .

"Oh!"

The alloy rolling shutter door had just been opened halfway when several eager figures squeezed in, not even bothering to bump their heads against the door.

"Hey, little guys, what's the rush?" The gruff-faced supermarket owner frowned and complained in a thick Mexican accent.

"The latest CDs, cake mix, gift boxes, game cards, Christmas wreaths... Let's all split up, hurry up and buy them before leaving. I'm tired of the cold looks from the rich guys in Sunshine Valley, and I can't even spend money to buy things. To be laughed at as a country bumpkin.”

Several young men and women joked with each other and happily stuffed their bags into the trunk of an old Toyota car.

……

……

The young man with fresh short hair got out of the brand new Ford Raptor, put his strong arms around the slim waist of his female companion, and said with a hint of provocation in his eyes, "Oh, I'm really sorry, I forgot, for people in your town, that means It is indeed a valuable item.”

"How dare you treat such shabby second-hand goods as treasures..." A frivolous voice interrupted.

"Hey, girl from Linyin Town, you have to pay attention to the occasion when you say bad things. I'm from Sunshine Valley too!" The supermarket owner scratched his brown-red neck with a half-smiling expression.

"Simon, you take Kate and sit in the back, and let me take everyone off!" the mixed-race girl said eagerly.

The young dark-skinned hottie was obviously not in the mood for idle chatter. She waved her hand to summon several classmates to disperse into the store, looking for their favorite items.

However, his teasing only earned the other party a curl of the corner of his mouth. Instead of showing any embarrassment, there was a hint of sympathy on his face.

"Uncle's skin doesn't seem to be much fairer than mine. It's been several years since I opened a shop here, but I still haven't seen it clearly? Do you really think that as long as you live here, you can become one of their own?"

The words contained malicious intent, but unexpectedly there was no retort. The hot mixed-race girl stared at the sweet-looking brown-haired girl in his arms, her lips moved with a complicated expression, and she managed to squeeze out a sentence:

"Come on! Stop bragging like a newbie who just got your driver's license. This car is my dad's treasure. If you dare to scratch a little bit of the patent leather, he will beat me to death." The man wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt The boy shook his head repeatedly, tightly covering the car door handle and refusing to let go, showing his firm doubts about his companion's skills with his actions.

The truth is always the most hurtful. A critical blow knocked the shopkeeper Lao Mo down on his chair, craning his neck and rolling his eyes. The young and pretty mixed-race girl giggled, picked up the shopping cart, and stepped on the side of the road. Gang jumped between the shelves like a scooter.

"Sammy, is this your choice?" Faced with the question from her former partner, the girl just lowered her head, her slender eyelashes trembling slightly.

"Tina...I still consider you a friend."

"...Friend? Well, I wish you happiness!" After understanding the implication, Tina smiled sadly, nodded with difficulty, and was about to turn around and leave. "Pop!" Accompanied by a crisp slapping sound, the two round petals trembled like waves, showing the elasticity of the youthful body.
Sammy exclaimed and covered his butt shyly.

The black girl who was about to get in the car paused and looked stiffly, her eyes almost bursting with fire.

"You bastard, how dare you face me..." She clenched her fists, as if she was about to pounce on him in the next second.

"How dare you?" The tall young man showed no fear and deliberately bent his arms, showing off his knotted biceps.

"Wake up, poor girl in Linyin Town, there are some things you can never give her, not only because of money, but the most important thing is that I am a real 'man'!" He stretched out his neck arrogantly and leaned against Tina. Word by word in the ear.

"You are on the football cheerleading team of the poor middle school, right? I happen to be the forward of the Sunny Valley Middle School team. In the match between the two teams tonight, I, Pete Allen, will beat you low-class people to the ground. , and then have a great night with Sammy to celebrate the victory..."

"Fake Squid!"

The last sentence seemed to light a fuse, and the nerves in Tina's brain suddenly collapsed. Just when she decided that she would rather be punished than get a hard punch on this annoying face, A blue and white police car buzzed to a stop, saving some of the girl's sanity.

"What's the matter? Children!" A middle-aged police officer with a strong look, holding a wide-brimmed cowboy hat, walked forward surrounded by two subordinates.

"Oh, dear Sheriff Nick, there is no problem. These are my girlfriend's former classmates in Boulevard Town. We are talking about the game tonight." Pete quickly put on a gentle smile and said humbly. Say hello.

He did not dare to be disrespectful to the most prominent member of the Goode family in the county.

Under the unique administrative system of the federation, these rural wealthy families who have held key public offices for generations may not be able to compare with the upper-class dignitaries in big cities in terms of wealth and influence, but they are truly uncrowned kings in the local area.

"It's best if there's no problem." The man put his hands on his hips and turned his dark eyes on several young people. "It's almost Christmas. Neither I nor Will want to see any cases happen. Do you understand? ”

He thought for a moment, then emphasized his tone to Tina and the others, and said additionally:

"Especially you, my children, I know that a life of poverty will be like a devil, eroding the soul at any time, making people want to vent desperately at a certain moment. There are too many such unfortunate things in the history of Linyin Town..." Sighing, the sergeant patted their shoulders gently in turn and comforted them in a warm voice:

"You have to learn to carry your weight and move forward. Life will always get better and better. My brother Will is about to start his second term as county commissioner. He promised to provide more public subsidies to Linyin Town..."

After drinking a bowl of chicken soup full of positive energy, no matter how much resentment Tina had, she could not express it. She could only cast a hateful look and was dragged away by her friends.

"You are so patient with those slackers who don't want to make progress."

Pete complimented him from the bottom of his heart and said that if he were replaced as the Sheriff, he would not look him in the eyes.

"Don't discriminate against others casually." The man lectured with a straight face and slowly returned to the car.

"Everyone exists in the world and has his own role..." He added half a sentence silently, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The gaze under the brim of the hat is as deep as the sea.
