Chapter 262: Caught Taking Photos

The next morning, Luo Cheng came out of the guest house again.

This time, in addition to carrying a cloth bag, there was one more thing. A camera, a camera of his era.

I have to say that the express delivery speed in the future era is really fast. The order placed on the first day actually arrived the next day.

In addition to the camera, there is also a box of film. One box contains forty-eight rolls of film, half black and white and half color. One roll of film can take thirty-six photos.

Luo Cheng spent a day playing with cameras in the future era, wasting a little film, and finally understood the general functions and uses of cameras. So that night he took his camera and some rolls of film with him to his own time.

With this camera hanging on his body, Luo Cheng felt more cool than riding a bicycle, because most of the eyes of people who saw him would stay on him for a while as long as they saw the camera.

Luo Cheng planned to go west today, mainly because he went to the street office near the guest house yesterday afternoon. They said they wanted to set up an office, but they didn't agree, saying that the level of the machinery factory was not high enough, and the area around the station was actually in the center of the city.

The street office was a business-oriented one, so I suggested that Luo Cheng go to a more remote street office to inquire. Many offices of small units are located in relatively remote locations, and you may still have the opportunity to rent a house.

Luo Cheng felt that he was destined to the West. According to the future, he would be able to live until the day he goes to the West. Luo Cheng planned to walk slowly to the street office over there, and take a photo if he saw a distinctive place.

He was holding pancakes in his hand, and they were brought from the canteen of the future era. The meat pancakes were very fragrant. Maybe it was because I deliberately walked towards a crowded place, when I passed by a supply and marketing cooperative. Luo Cheng stopped. He had seen a lot of this supply and marketing cooperative, but it was also a place worth remembering in the future.

Totally worth taking a photo and hanging on a cafeteria wall in the future. So Luo Cheng ate the pancake in his hand in a few mouthfuls, found a handkerchief from the cloth bag, wiped his hands clean, and prepared to take some photos with the camera.

"This is for taking photos."

"What this guy has is a camera."

"Hello, comrade~~."

Luo Cheng just wanted to take a few photos, but in his day and age it was too easy to cause alarm. And what Luo Cheng didn't know was that taking photos in his era was not only easy to attract others' attention. Another point is that it is easy to be questioned. Unidentified people taking random photos in this era can easily be taken away.

If someone like Luo Cheng dared to walk around openly with a camera, people would not suspect anything. Some people with good family lives do have photography enthusiasts, but they don’t come to take pictures of supply and marketing cooperatives.

A very simple question, what is good about the supply and marketing cooperative? Did Luo Cheng tell people that the supply and marketing cooperative has a sense of age? This is just like in the future era, who would be interested in taking pictures in supermarkets.

So before the photo was taken, it first attracted the attention of passers-by, and then the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative came to ask Luo Cheng's identity politely.

And it would be okay if Luo Cheng was a local. If he has a job, it would be easy to verify it. But Luo Cheng spoke Mandarin when he spoke, and his work permit was from another province, and he was from a machinery factory.

So ten minutes later, a police station.

"Name."

"Luo Cheng."

"age."

"twenty."

"employer."

~~~

Even though he had a work permit, Luo Cheng was still questioned one by one. However, the police were quite polite to Luo Cheng. Even if he was from another province, as long as he had a workplace, he could just call and inquire.

The only troublesome thing is that these days, calls from the police station cannot be made outside the province. They have to be forwarded outside the city, which is even more difficult outside the province. There is another popular profession in this era, that of telephone operator, who specializes in answering calls and helping to transfer calls from other places.

So even if Luo Cheng had a letter of introduction, he would have to wait at the police station just because he was playing with a camera and aroused others' suspicion. You can leave after your identity is verified.

Another point is that it is particularly difficult to connect to calls from other provinces and the lines are easily busy. Unless it's a call from some special department, it's easier to get through. But now this situation occurs, the line is busy and cannot be connected.

"Comrade Luo Cheng, the phone can't be reached right now. Do you have any friends in Jiangcheng? You came here alone. If you have a friend to vouch for it, I can let you leave."

In addition to looking at Luo Cheng's ID, the police station also confirmed some of his information. Because Luo Cheng kept the train ticket, it meant that he had only been here for two days, and he could check Luo Cheng's whereabouts even if he stayed at the guest house over the station. There is a high probability that Luo Cheng is indeed here on a business trip.

But for the sake of safety, his workplace has not implemented it after all, but if someone he knows in Jiangcheng can vouch for it. You can also release them immediately.

Asking Luo Cheng if he knew anyone here, this made him hesitate. He didn't know why he wanted to go to Zheng Ke, who he met on the train. It's just a chance encounter that someone left him a contact address, maybe it was just to be polite. And if someone comes to the police station to protect him, what if they don't want to.

After thinking for a while, Luo Cheng still hoped that he would continue to contact his work unit. If he still couldn't get in touch, he would let us know.

I stayed like this until almost ten o'clock, but the phone still couldn't be connected. The feedback came back that there might have been a communication failure in Ganzhou. Because not only the calls provided by Luo Cheng could not be transferred, but there seemed to be some areas over there that could not be connected during this time period.

"Well, I know a friend at the Youth Magazine~~."

"Okay, I'll write it down."

There's no way, the phone call can't be connected. Although this side also recognizes Luo Cheng's identity, the main suspicion is that aspect. For suspicions in that aspect, the current policy is to rather kill the wrong person than let him go.

If the phone call can't be connected for a day, they will really lock him up for a day. So Luo Cheng finally tried to see if the kind-hearted girl who helped him on the train could help him again.

Jiangcheng Youth Magazine.

"Zheng Ke, you've moved to this dormitory, I'll welcome you, the roast duck opposite our magazine is really good. I'll invite you to try it."

"Brother Li, really don't bother, it's too expensive. And I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative at noon."

"Go to the supply and marketing cooperative, what do you want to buy, I'll accompany you, I can help you get things."

Zheng Ke was a little embarrassed, she already knew what Li Chen was up to. Even this morning, the president came to talk to her alone and hinted at her.

Li Chen's family conditions are very good, his father is actually a university teacher. His mother also worked in a local unit. If you count Li Chen's grandfather, although he has passed away, they can be regarded as a family of scholars. Moreover, Li Chen is also talented, with good income and good looks.

The most important thing is that when the president first talked to Zheng Ke, he did not mention Li Chen. He mainly asked about her situation, and only talked about Li Chen when he confirmed that she had no partner. In this way, if Zheng Ke wanted to reject Li Chen, at least she could not use the excuse of having a partner.

But Zheng Ke also asked curiously, why Li Chen, with such good conditions, was still not married at the age of 28. This question embarrassed the president a little. Li Chen was actually a widow, who died of dystocia, one body and two lives.

But even so, it's not that he can't find a wife, but he has high standards. You are a widow, and not everyone can match you.

Before Zheng Ke came to report here, the people at the magazine had already roughly known her information. She was a college student from Wanzhou. She had a very good reputation at school, and she had a good literary talent. She was considered a talented woman. At that time, Li Chen joked that if she was good-looking, then the good things would not flow to outsiders.

Li Chen is a widower, not unmarried. This is the same for men and women. People who have had that kind of thing are really hard to hold back. If he is not picky, he will find another one. With such conditions, even a virgin can find one.

When Zheng Ke came to report on the first day, Li Chen's eyes were straight, and he secretly found the president to ask for help that day. So there was a matter of arranging Li Chen to lead the newcomer Zheng Ke on the first day.

Zheng Ke really couldn't accept Li Chen. His age was 28 according to the actual age. She was just 20. When she was in elementary school, she was only 6 years old in lunar age, and elementary school was a five-year system. So most of the people who graduated from college in this era were around 20 years old.

Of course, there are many special reasons for delaying schooling, and even college students in their 30s may have them.

Zheng Ke really didn't want to say it so directly, but he had to say that thick-skinned men are indeed easy to chase girls. This is the case in any era. Sometimes you don't feel embarrassed to refuse at the beginning, and then you are chased by them, and you are slowly moved and broken.

Just when Zheng Ke didn't know how to refuse Li Chen again, the receptionist of the magazine came to call her. Someone from the police station wanted to see her and asked her to go to the reception room.

"The police station is looking for you, Zheng Ke, do you want me to go with you? If you need anything, I still have some connections in Jiangcheng."

"No, thank you, Brother Li. I don't know what the situation is, I'll go and take a look first."

Zheng Ke rejected Li Chen's kindness again, but she was also very puzzled in her heart. Why would the police station come to see her? Following the receptionist of the magazine, she walked out of the editorial office of the magazine.

Then, not long after, Zheng Ke returned to the editorial office, but just took some things and left with the police from the police station. Looking at this situation, it is obvious that Zheng Ke did not commit any crime, otherwise even if she was a girl, she would not be treated so politely.

Luo Cheng was waiting in the police station, a little depressed. He didn't know that if he wanted to take some commemorative things, he would be checked for his ID, and because he was from another place, he was taken to the police station.

The future era is right, pretending to be cool will be struck by lightning, Luo Cheng admitted that he took photos to record some things of this era. But it also meant showing off. How could he not be depressed if he was sent to the police station for pretending to be cool?
