When she woke up in the morning, Di Li found that Gray was no longer by her side. She raised her head and looked at the big wall clock facing the bed, it was eight fifty.Dilly shrugged - obviously, she got up too late, and Gray had already gone to work. She got dressed, finished washing, and walked down from the bedroom on the second floor.Today is a fine day, and the rays of the autumn sun are projected through the windows onto the living room floor. Dilly walked to the dining room, thinking about making something for herself. Pushing open the glass sliding door of the dining room, Di Li was stunned for a moment—on the dining table, there was a cup of hot milk, a plate of fried bacon, and a bowl of egg custard.

Dilly smiled.How thoughtful of Gray - to cook himself such a good breakfast before going to work. She sat down and began to taste Gray's handiwork. When the first piece of fried bacon was put into her mouth, Di Li raised her eyebrows in surprise—the taste was so delicious! She couldn't help but feel a little strange, it's not that Gray didn't cook before, but Dilly always laughed at him for "the food he made could kill a horse"—why did the breakfast he made so delicious today? Dilly tasted another spoonful of custard, and she was amazed again—this bowl of custard tasted even better than fried bacon!

Could it be that Gray secretly practiced cooking in order to let himself have a delicious breakfast?Thinking of this, a warm current passed through Di Li's body. She put another slice of bacon in her mouth.Chewing and chewing, Di Li began to pay attention to a question - what kind of animal meat is this bacon that is so delicious? She began to tilt her head to savor.pork?Unlike, the taste of pork is not so delicate; beef?It doesn't seem to be the case, I am very familiar with the taste of beef.Then it is... Thinking about it, Di Li suddenly realized—why didn't she see the Scottish dog Katz after getting up for so long?

She stood up with some doubts, opened the window of the dining room and looked at the garden at the door, but did not find Katz. Di Li frowned. She left the dining room and walked to the bathroom on the second floor, her steps speeding up unconsciously. Opening the bathroom door, Dilly breathed a sigh of relief—Kaz was lying motionless in her kennel, sleeping on her stomach.The sound of Dilly opening the door awakened Katz from his sleep. He raised his head and looked at Dilly. Dilly quickly closed the door. Turning around, Di Li tapped herself on the head—it's so early in the morning, what are you thinking about!

She returned to the dining room, finished the rest of the breakfast, and packed the tableware, then went to the living room on the first floor and sat on the sofa. After thinking about it for five minutes, Di Li was going to put aside the matter of job hunting first.This morning, I should go to the supermarket to buy some fresh food and household items. So, she quickly put on her going out shoes and left the house.Before going out, she checked her purse—the house key was in it. Walking on the open road in this villa area, Di Li observed the beautiful surroundings.This area is quite green, with all the public facilities, and away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is very clean - it is really the most ideal place to live.

But for some reason, Di Li's mood was always a little gloomy—this place looked perfect, but she always felt that something was missing.She didn't know where this feeling came from. After walking for about ten minutes, Di Li slowly stopped, and she somewhat understood what the problem was. From the time she walked out of the door until now, she was the only one on this road, and she never saw any other passers-by!Moreover, the houses in this row of villas are all closed doors, and it seems that no one lives at all.Dilly finally understood what was missing in this place—anger. Di Li looked around suspiciously, and only then did she realize that the place was eerily quiet.After she stopped, all she could hear was the sound of her own breathing.

Dilly frowned and began to think back.It seemed to be the same when she came to this community yesterday afternoon. She had never seen other passers-by or neighbors at all.It was only because Gray was talking to herself all the way that she didn't feel the intense desertion today! Thinking about it, Di Li actually felt a little scared.She opened her legs and began to trot on the road. How she wanted to meet one or two passers-by, or a postman on a bicycle, even an old lady picking up garbage! After running for six or seven minutes, it wasn't until Di Li left the villa area and turned a corner to another street that she finally saw some pedestrians and ordinary street scenes in daily life.

Di Li calmed down a little, and she said to herself repeatedly in her heart: Maybe it's just a coincidence that everyone in that residential area went to work early in the morning, so it was so deserted.Thinking of this, she felt much better. When Di Li came to the largest supermarket nearby, she merged with hundreds of people, and her mood finally brightened.Dilly was choosing meat, vegetables, milk, eggs in the supermarket market... After shopping, Di Li walked out of the supermarket carrying several large plastic bags. She hailed a taxi and told the driver the destination. Sitting in the car, Di Li looked at her watch, it was almost twelve noon.
