Rebirth 2009: Synthetic God

Chapter 8 The thief and the inevitable destiny

After eating the breakfast prepared by his mother, Zhou Rui put on his bag and walked towards Li Wenqian's community.

The slightly moist breath penetrated his nostrils in the early morning, and Zhou Rui felt that although he had slept for only a few hours, he was very energetic.

This is the benefit of being young.

Unlike in the future, when I was in my thirties, I didn't sleep well one night, and the next day was like suffering from a terminal illness. Staying up late would be even more uncomfortable for several days.

However, due to the pressure of life and for their own livelihood, lack of sleep is a common thing for social animals. They stay up late every now and then, and they smoke and drink to relieve anxiety.

He is risking his life, working for the landlord and the boss.

With yesterday's experience of hypoglycemia, Zhou Rui was going to buy some snacks at the canteen to prevent him from getting too hungry midway and losing his condition, which would affect his experience gain.

By the way, I was going to buy two pieces of fruit peels and give them back to Li Wenqian. He didn’t have much pocket money, but he didn’t owe me something as low as a fruit peel.

When he walked downstairs, a piece of paper on the mottled wall caught Zhou Rui's attention.

"The property in this building is for sale urgently. Please do not disturb the agent. The contact number is 13."

There was no specific door number written on the paper, only a floor plan, and underneath was a cut, comb-shaped piece of paper with a phone number written on it.

There is no missing one, and no one seems to be interested. After all, who would buy a house with such an old house?

Zhou Rui thought for a moment, pulled out a piece of paper with a phone number on it, and put it in his pocket.

This is equivalent to an opportunity being delivered to your door.

Although he didn't know why the other party sold the house, it was none of his business anyway. After all, without Zhou Rui, the reborn person, the house seller would still miss the demolition. There was no reason to refuse this opportunity.

There were not many people on the street early in the morning. It was the time when high school students went to school and the office workers hadn't even gone out yet. New 𝗑.𝖼𝗈𝗆

Zhou Rui walked two intersections and came to a canteen.

"Boss? Do you have Snickers bars? There are also fruit peels."

When he was young, he loved eating Snickers bars, but after he started working, he felt they were too sweet, fat, and prone to toothaches, so he never ate them again.

However, in the current situation, it is a good choice to quickly replenish sugar and energy.

While waiting for the boss to get the goods, a gust of fragrant wind passed behind Zhou Rui. The fresh fragrance was not something that could be smelled in a small county town.

Zhou Rui subconsciously turned his head and glanced, only to see a tall figure with long hair and shawl. He seemed to be about the same age as him, but he was not wearing a school uniform.

This must be about 1.7 meters, Zhou Rui thought to himself.

The legs are so long

In this era, 99% of people of the same age have stupid hairstyles. Both men and women wear school uniforms that look like plastic covers. They even have non-mainstream, which is a big killer.

After returning from rebirth, Zhou Rui suddenly saw a back that matched his aesthetics. Zhou Rui stared at it for a while.

Similarly, being in line with Zhou Rui's aesthetics means that this person's dress is ahead of the times, that is, it is very "fashionable".

It's really "fashion", not non-mainstream fashion.

Don’t go to school at such a young age without wearing school uniforms? Is this taking a shortcut in life?

But it has nothing to do with Zhou Rui. He has neither money nor time now.

Although this girl looks to be of higher quality than the one on the yacht in his dream

The canteen owner handed over a Snickers bar and a fruit peel, and then he and Zhou Rui looked at the back, showing an expression that all men would understand.

But when he saw another figure behind the girl, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, revealing a troubled expression. New 𝗰𝗼𝗺

Behind the girl, I saw a thin man following not far away, wearing a peaked cap and a denim jacket that had been washed to white, with his back hunched and silent.

Zhou Rui asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? Not enough money?"

The owner of the canteen hesitated and said: "That's a habitual thief here. He's been in there several times and still smokes."

In the blink of an eye, he thought that this was just a high school student in school uniform. The canteen owner swallowed the rest of his words, waved his hand and returned to the store.

He is a humble citizen, and he has a shop here, so he doesn't dare to cause trouble. That person has a bad record. If he ruins the good things of the other party, he will have no place to run if he comes to his shop to find trouble.

Zhou Rui was thoughtful and was about to ask again when he saw the girl turn into an alley, and the thin man followed her in.

Many people think that thieves only operate at night. In fact, early morning is also when thieves are busy. Firstly, many people are not very awake and drowsy early in the morning. Secondly, many people who come out early in the morning are old people, making it easier to attack.

There are not that many cameras, let alone a small county like Qinghe County, where thieves are actually quite rampant.

Han Ziyin stepped on her canvas shoes and marveled at the unique scenery of the county. Having lived in a big city for a long time, she rarely came to places like Qinghe County except when traveling.

Especially walking into the streets and alleys in the county that are full of life will add a sense of charm.

However, she ignored the issue of safety.

Just as she turned into the alley and was looking curiously at the pigeon cage on the roof, Han Ziyin suddenly felt her pocket move.

She had never encountered anything like this before, so she subconsciously looked back and saw a strange man reaching into her pocket.

Her mind was stuck for two seconds before she realized that this was a thief!

Han Ziyin felt a chill go down his spine and subconsciously grabbed the other person's hand. Unexpectedly, when the thief saw that he was caught, he took out a knife with his other hand and slashed directly towards Han Ziyin.

"ah!"

Only then did Han Ziyin realize that for a girl who is alone

What's more terrifying than having something stolen is catching the thief on the spot!

After the thief forced Han Ziyin back, he originally wanted to turn around and run away.

But seeing Han Ziyin's bright face and tall figure, they were far better than the fashionable clothes in the small county town.

He has extremely weak self-control due to his long-term use of D.

I was so lustful that I changed my mind!

His primitive instinct made him change his past habit of taking wealth without taking advantage of sex, and decided to open up a new business today.

He grabbed Han Ziyin's delicate wrist and tried to subdue her. He moved his thin hand to cover Han Ziyin's mouth.

Despite his small stature, he was not even as tall as Han Ziyin, but he was an adult man after all, and he possessed a crazy ferocity. He restrained Han Ziyin in one glance and dragged him deeper into the alley.

Han Ziyin realized what the other party wanted to do, and a wave of despair emerged. She tried her best to struggle, but her body seemed to be intimidated by the fierce arrogance and the knife, and she couldn't use any strength at all.

His legs kept pushing on the ground, but he couldn't use any strength, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

Han Ziyin felt that the surroundings were getting darker and darker, and the dead-end alley with little sunlight seemed to foreshadow her tragic future.

"Bang!"

The thin man rolled his eyes and fainted.

Han Ziyin looked up with red eyes and saw a clean-looking boy in school uniform holding a brick.

Zhou Rui breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also a little nervous.

Originally, he didn't intend to meddle in other people's business. After all, the canteen owner was just a family member.

Besides, he is not a fighting expert, so the consequences of defeating the thief may not be better than letting the thief steal something and leave.

Fortunately, these two people were taking the same route to Li Wenqian's community, so he couldn't even pretend not to see them.

He is not a big hero who goes around putting out fires, but after what happened when he got hit in the face, it would be too cowardly to hide behind him and not come out.

There is no need for a reborn person to make his thoughts unclear.

Watching the girl being dragged into the alley from a distance, Zhou Rui did not jump out in a hurry, but took out a brick from the corner. He did not want to fight the thief with a knife, so a sneak attack was the safest option.

So far, the results look pretty good and there are no glitches.

But he didn't know how much this unexpected encounter and this brick that wasn't in the original trajectory would change things.

In the original time trajectory, high school student Zhou Rui arrived at this alley fifteen minutes later than usual because he got up late.

When high school student Zhou Rui passed by the corner of the alley, he didn't notice the tragedy hidden in the darkness.

At that time, Han Ziyin had already encountered misfortune. She was in a mess and stabbed several times, but she still had the last consciousness.

It's a pity that Zhou Rui was in a hurry to pick up Li Wenqian, so he didn't see the dying Han Ziyin in the corner.

Zhou Rui's mistake also caused this girl's life to stop at the age of 18.

Even this incident never appeared in his memory, so the reborn Zhou Rui didn't know that his meeting this girl was not accidental, but inevitable.

Every action of the reborn person may cause ripples of fate

At this moment, someone's fate has completely changed because of Zhou Rui.

The life that was supposed to come to an end has changed.
