Chapter 20

—Someone robbed a canteen in broad daylight!

Because the location was not far away, just two streets away in the next neighborhood, nearby residents were furious.

It is said that the store was run by two elderly men. When the robbery took place, the eldest man had a direct conflict with the criminals and was hit on the head with a stick. He was only breathing his last when he was sent to the hospital.

The old lady was also injured and had heart disease. After accompanying the caregiver to the hospital, she couldn't hold back her tears and fainted on the spot. They were both pushed into the emergency room.

The incident attracted great attention. The police quickly launched an investigation and eventually arrested three suspects.

Ridiculously, according to the suspects, they had no money to stock up on food and were very nervous about the current situation, so they had the evil idea of ​​imitating others and buying things for free.

Because he knew the old couple and knew that their children worked away from home all year round and had no other support, he listed them as robbery targets without thinking.

When the above news came out, Tang Qi, who had two elderly parents at home, was frightened and called his parents more than ten times that night.

.

Wen Xin called Wen Jinfeng's secretary because the main caller's line was busy.

The secretary's phone number has been given out for so many years, but Wen Xin has never asked for help. This is the first time she has spoken to the legendary young master of the Wen family.

Upon learning that the other party called just to inquire about Wen Jinfeng's safety, the secretary was a little surprised and politely said "wait a moment".

Wen Xin waited quietly.

When he made the call, he was still a little worried and anxious, but when he heard the secretary's tone was normal, he immediately calmed down.

After all, if something really happened to Wen Jinfeng, his secretary would not be as calm as he is now.

Not long after, the secretary came back after consulting his boss and told him on the phone that President Wen was fine and told him not to worry.

Wen Xin hummed after hearing this.

After waiting for more than twenty seconds, there was still no response from the secretary.

He moved his fingers and whispered politely, "Since you are alright, I will hang up first."

Before he finished speaking, a man interrupted with a cold and deep voice: "Give me the phone."

When the call was picked up, Wen Jinfeng only said the word "you" and stopped talking.

The atmosphere quickly cooled down.

In the unspeakable silence, Wen Xin heard Wen Jinfeng's breathing.

Up and down, continuously coming from the other end of the phone, condensed into a silent oppression.

Wen Xin pinched his fingers unconsciously and was about to hang up the phone.

He waited for two minutes and was about to end the conversation hastily when there was a loud bang and something heavy fell to the ground.

Wen Xin was shocked and turned back subconsciously.

There was a lot of noise outside the bedroom door, obviously there was a commotion. He didn't care that he was still on the phone with Wen Jinfeng, and hurried to see what was going on.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw a purple-haired squirrel holding a broom and roared in frustration: "Squeak!"

Have you fought enough?

The hall at this moment can only be described as a mess.

The opened snacks spilled onto the sofa, the plush cover was covered with biscuit crumbs, and the decorations on the coffee table were knocked all over the place.

The Green Group and the Little Fox, the instigators, are still struggling to grab the remote control. One wants to watch an urban romance drama, and the other wants to watch a cartoon.

The green group bared its fangs: "That's enough, little fox, I've put up with you for a long time, if you don't want to die, let go of my hand!"

The little fox was so scared that he retracted his hand, but he was unwilling to let go of his claws: "Wen Xin said that everyone can watch it, and you have already watched it for an hour!"

"I only watched it for forty minutes!"

They were arguing so hard that neither of them had time to look back.

The green group pressed the little fox onto the tea table, and the latter's big tail directly swept open the toothpick box.

In the purple-haired squirrel's shrunken pupils, the toothpick box fell to the floor with a thud, spilling all over the floor.

A good mood for the day begins to collapse when the fruits of one's labor are destroyed.

The purple-haired squirrel was so angry that he swore, "Squeak!"

Damn!

It threw the broom heavily to the ground, muscles bulged on its slender arms, its hair grew wildly and thicker, and a fierce red light flashed in its eyes.

But before it could go berserk, the black ball opened its eyes immediately after hearing Wen Xin walking out of the room.

An irresistible pressure surged out, and the green ball and the little fox on the sofa fell to the ground together.

Even the purple squirrel's violent state was forcibly suppressed.

The three little ones were all confused until they saw Wen Xin coming.

In an instant, Green Ball released its tail from around the little fox, and the little fox released its teeth from around Green Ball.

The purple squirrel picked up the broom, still feeling very irritable, and kept stamping his feet on the floor.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

Zituan is the new member of Wen Xin's family. Before this, there was a blue cat who came to the door and was also adopted by Wen Xin, named Lanlan and Azi.

The two new dumplings have different personalities from the other dumplings. The blue dumpling is rather docile and lazy. Most of the time, it lies in the big basin of water that Wen Xin bought. Occasionally, it goes to the balcony to bask in the sun. It is a person who does not like to compete with the world.

Zituan, on the other hand, can't sit still. She likes cleaning, knitting and hoarding things, but the only thing she can't stand is dirt.

This inevitably leads to a conflict with the green group who likes to throw things around after eating.

Later, a little fox who was curious about the TV was added, which was a direct harbinger of disaster.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that the little fox is usually timid and shrinking. If he really comes across something he likes, he will not let it go easily.

Every day after that, Wen Xin's family basically spent their time in quarrels and fights. Only when he was watching them could they get a moment of peace.

Hearing Zituan's angry squeaking, Wen Xin roughly understood what had happened.

He picked up the choking Tuanzi, patted him and comforted him, then glanced at the other two Tuanzi with a stern look: "Let's clean them up together."

The two guilty guys didn't dare to refute and immediately started to clean up.

Wen Xin was also helping.

Zituan was originally still holding the broom, angrily not wanting to do anything about it.

Later, it couldn't stand the green balls' clumsiness anymore, so it pushed both balls away and did it itself.

"squeak!"

Get out of here!

Seeing that Zituan was once again obsessed with doing housework, Wen Xin couldn't care less about being angry and rubbed its head.

He turned his head, lowered his eyes, and looked disapprovingly at Green Ball and the little fox, making them turn their heads away in disapproval.

Heituan jumped down from the cabinet, meowed, and signaled Wen Xin to look towards the bedroom.

Wen Xin heard the hoarse shouting coming from the phone, and then he realized that Wen Jinfeng had not hung up the phone yet.

He hurried over: "Sorry, I just had something to do."

The person on the other end of the phone was shouting just a second ago: "What happened, Wenxin! Wenxin! What happened? Answer me!"

The next second he immediately turned indifferent: "...Are you a fool?"

Wen Xin also felt that it was not a good idea to abandon the other person in the middle of a phone call, so she did not get angry with him.

But when he heard Wen Jinfeng yelling so loudly, his expression changed and hesitantly asked, "You were so anxious just now, did you think something happened to me?"

The engine went out in a second: "..."

Wen Xin guessed logically: "So, are you worried about me, brother?"

Thanks to Wen Xin's habit of being friendly and affectionate with the dumplings, otherwise he would never have said such a thing in the past.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be this polite and courteous title of "brother".

Wen Jinfeng: “…………”

This strange silence seemed to be a tacit agreement.

Wen Xin was a little surprised. After all, he had always thought that Wen Jinfeng ignored and disliked him more than he cared about him.

Wen Jinfeng was silent for a moment and sneered: "You think too much."

He avoided talking about his previous gaffe and finished his sentence quickly.

"You're relatively safe there. I'll send someone to look for you and their information will be sent to your phone later."

"After I finish dealing with things here, about a month later, you can follow them to City A."

Wen Xin frowned: "Why?"

"I know you're confused, but I can't guarantee that our conversation is absolutely safe. Let's talk about it after we meet in person."

After saying this, a short breath was heard from the other side.

It sounds like he's calling, "Brother."

Wen Xin almost thought he had heard it wrongly.

In the next sentence, Wen Jinfeng's tone was still cold and distant, even a little sarcastic.

"Be smart, don't leave the house, don't be stupid and follow others."

After finishing speaking, Wen Jinfeng hung up the phone without giving anyone a chance to ask questions.

When Wen Xin called back, he got the same busy tone as before.

He held the phone in his hand, unable to calm down.

Compared with before, the tone Wen Jinfeng used this time could almost be called gentle.

But it was because of this that Wen Xin sensed something unusual.

It seems that Wen Jinfeng is doing something very dangerous, so dangerous that he has to be vigilant about whether his secretary's phone is being monitored.

The little dumplings heard the noise at some point and gathered around the bedroom door, craning their necks to look at Wen Xin, whose brows were tightly knitted together.

The black group entered first, stuck to Wen Xin's trouser legs, and rubbed him back and forth with its head.

Wen Xin felt its comfort, smiled, picked up Tuanzi and kissed it: "I'm fine."

Suddenly, he thought of something and looked through the community owner group.

The group has exploded, with people either discussing the elderly couple being robbed or expressing their anxiety about the mutated rabies virus.

"What should I do? My parents are at home, but I can't go back now."

"What kind of virus is this? How can living people be turned into monsters? It's so scary."

"Are those two old people okay? Does anyone know what happened next?"

"I was so tired from work last night that I slept until now. When I woke up, I saw that the supermarket was completely emptied. Shit."

"I went to the market but couldn't buy any vegetables. Will the city and roads really be closed down in the future? What will we eat then?"

Confusion, panic, anger, discomfort...

Countless negative emotions emanated from between the lines of each person's words, making Wen Xin's heart sink a little bit.

Then, he saw a new message and his eyes froze.

Owner of Unit 3, Building 5: I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Doesn't anyone think that those mutant rabies patients look like zombies?
