Apocalypse: Starting with a Tricycle, Operating a Mobile Supermarket

After Jiang He had been a scapegoat in the new world for half a year, her super powerful management system finally arrived late. After binding, she started by pedaling a small tricycle, operating a...

Chapter 384 The Third Tenant

Jiang He looked up and saw the little boy with delicate features and fair skin. He stood there quietly without saying a word, but his eyes did not reveal any fear.

Retracting her gaze, she slowly spoke, "There's only one single room left in the supermarket, but this child is a minor, and it might be troublesome for him to live here alone."

Even if an eight-year-old child does not need others to worry about him in life, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems in other aspects.

Moreover, this person was specially arranged by the Beijing North Base. In case of an accident, who knows whether it will be blamed on Shuguang Supermarket?

Xiong Meng glanced at the little boy, leaned forward, and explained in a low voice:

"Boss Jiang, this kid's entire family was assassinated by terrorists, and he is the only one who survived.

Because he witnessed the tragic deaths of his father, mother and brother, he was severely traumatized and unable to speak.

After examining his condition, the doctor suggested that he change his living environment. Staying in Beijing North would only worsen his mental damage, and he would either go crazy or commit suicide.

Therefore, the base wants to find a safe place for him to stay."

There is no place in this world safer than Shuguang Supermarket.

The Beijing North Base has always treated the families of martyrs well. If Lin Muzhe can live in the supermarket, the base will bear all the expenses.

Jiang He understood what he meant, but his previous concerns were still not dispelled.

At this time, Shen Mo stepped forward and asked tentatively: "If I say that I am willing to take care of this little boy, is that okay?"

Xiong Meng saw that Jiang He wanted to refuse and thought there was no hope. When he heard this, his eyes widened instantly.

"Hello, I'm the captain of the eighth team at Jingbei Base. My name is Xiong Meng."

The two shook hands, and Xiong Meng began to introduce the little boy to her.

"Mu Ze has a very good personality and doesn't require much care. He will definitely not cause you too much trouble.

It would be really great if you could act as a guarantor.”

Although they were strangers meeting for the first time, the reason why Xiong Meng trusted her so much was entirely because of Jiang He.

He believed that anyone who could rent a house near Shuguang Supermarket would definitely not have any bad intentions.

Shen Mo bit her lip and changed the subject, “However, due to my personal reasons, I can probably only take care of him for four or five months.

After that, I will quit the lease and leave.”

Xiong Meng paused for a moment, then said, "It's okay, maybe by that time, Mu Ze's illness will have recovered, and the base will send someone to pick him up.

If it doesn't get better, I will ask my supervisor to arrange for someone suitable to move into your vacant room and continue to take care of Mu Ze."

Hearing this, the corners of Shen Mo's mouth, which had been suppressed, slowly rose. She turned her head to look at Jiang He, her eyes surprisingly bright.

"Boss Jiang, I'm Mu Ze's guardian. Could you consider letting him live with us?"

Jiang He no longer hesitated and nodded gently: "Okay, but you have to sign a waiver agreement beforehand."

Xiong Meng and Shen Mo had no objections and said with a smile, "Okay!"

Afterwards, Jiang He helped Lin Muzhe to apply for a points card.

Xiong Meng loaded all the gold and silver jewelry he brought into the card. After deducting three months' rent, the points in the card were enough to cover his expenses for the next ten years.

After signing the contract, Jiang He asked Xiao Xiong to take over at the cashier while she took people to see the house.

When Xiong Mengtou came here for the first time, the bright and clean environment made him hallucinate, as if he had suddenly returned to the time before the end of the world.

After seeing the single room on the second floor, Xiong Meng was extremely envious. If he did not have the responsibility of defending his country, he might also choose to live in Shuguang Supermarket and spend the rest of his life in peace.

He pulled the little boy to the corridor with a gentle smile on his face:

"Mu Ze, you will live here from now on. Do you like it?"

The little boy pursed his lips and nodded imperceptibly.

Xiong Meng patted his head and said, "If you encounter difficulties and you really can't solve them yourself, go to Sister Shen Mo next door for help, okay?"

Mu Ze was able to move in smoothly, mostly thanks to Chen Mo. Xiong Meng originally planned to give her a bag of gold and silver jewelry, but Chen Mo confiscated it.

The little boy clutched the corner of his clothes tightly and nodded again.

Seeing how well-behaved and sensible he was, Xiong Meng couldn't help but give him a few more instructions.

"Mu Ze, don't dwell on the past anymore. Sleep well, eat well, and don't ruin your health.

Boss Jiang and the two sisters who live on the second floor are very good friends, so you don’t have to worry about any danger…”

After saying that, Xiong Meng prepared to leave. He was not a tenant here and could not stay for too long.

When he turned around, his collar felt tighter. He turned around and saw that the little boy was still holding his clothes.

"Mu Ze, I'm leaving now. You can stay here peacefully. I'll find a chance to come and see you again in the future."

Xiong Meng hardened his heart and pulled the corner of the clothes out of his hand.

"Take good care of yourself."

Back at the cashier, Xiong Meng thought about it for a while, and then he walked up to Jiang He with a thick face and said with difficulty:

"Boss Jiang, can you agree to a small request of mine?"

Jiang He looked up at him, "What's your request?"

"If Makize's health condition is not good and his life is in danger, can you use the communicator to contact me?"

It's just a phone call, not a difficult task. Jiang He hesitated for half a minute and replied, "I only agreed to contact you, and I am not responsible for any outcome of the matter."

Xiong Meng nodded excitedly: "Of course, as long as I can get the news, that's enough!"

Xiang Heng didn't wait for him and took the other brothers to eat hot pot first.

When I was carrying the supplies downstairs, my stomach was so full that I could hardly walk.

"Team Bear, it's your loss that you didn't get to eat the hot pot. It's so fragrant and spicy, and the taste is simply amazing!

I almost licked the pot clean!"

Their rest time was limited, and Xiong Meng was busy dealing with the housing issues of his comrades' children, so he had no time to queue up again if he missed it.

"It's okay. Shuguang Supermarket won't go bankrupt. I'll come again next time."

Although he felt a little regretful that he didn't have the hotpot, he was still very happy that he had solved the top priority in his heart.

In the room on the second floor, Lin Muzhe leaned against the window, staring eagerly at Xiong Meng and his group as they walked into the center of the base.

Only when he could no longer see anyone did he turn around and walk back to the bed, continuing to fold clothes with swift hands and feet.

After putting all the clothes for all seasons into the closet, Lin Muzhe looked at what was missing at home.

There's no daily necessities like shower gel, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, etc. There aren't enough hangers, and I need to buy a set of brooms and dustpans...

He wrote them all down and planned to go to the supermarket to buy them tomorrow.

At six o'clock in the evening, all 200 bowls of douzhi were sold out, and Jiang He had 30 minutes to restock.

After a while, two new tasks appeared in the taskbar.

"Go to Jingyuan Base to sign in and shout out the corresponding slogan~

Reward: 50 minutes of restocking time, unlock two items~"

"Go to Ruichang Base to sign in and shout out the corresponding slogan~
