Chapter 24 is actually a spatial ability!
I secretly wondered what the man who was dragged in was like, and whether the person behind this store was good or evil.
Liu Cheng's white bracelet issued a continuous "beep" warning for three seconds, and a large bold text instantly appeared in front of his eyes.
【Countdown to restaurant stay: 5 minutes.】
The countdown made people feel panicky. Liu Cheng really wanted to ask the people in the restaurant what the countdown was about, but those people all had worried looks on their faces, shrouded in a thick low pressure.
It seems inconvenient to disturb.
Liu Cheng: "Dad, I received a message saying that I stayed in the restaurant for less than five minutes."
When Liu Zhixing heard this, he squinted his eyes and moved closer to the yellow bracelet to take a closer look. The number displayed was 35 minutes, which was half an hour more than Liu Cheng's.
For privacy reasons, the bracelet on the customer's hand is only visible to the manager or the customer himself. Other close people can only see a small colored circle.
There was a full half-hour difference in the time they stayed. Liu Cheng's eyes darkened and his originally relaxed hands gradually clenched. He didn't know whether he should be happy or sad about the difference in the time they stayed.
Thinking about his father's current mobility issues, the restaurant was the safest place for him. After careful consideration, he said, "Dad, I'll wait for you at the door. You rest well here and make the most of your time."
Then he walked over to Yu Min and spoke in a much more respectful tone:
"I only have four minutes left in the restaurant. How long will it take before I can come in again? Also, how can I stay an extra half hour like my father? You know, he's old and his feet are not in good condition. I'm a little worried."
Yu Min was completely confused. "Are you sure there's a half-hour difference? That shouldn't be the case. People like us can only increase our time by contributing to the restaurant."
"Is it true? The same goes for those two gray-haired old men and women?" Yu Min's explanation once again refreshed Liu Cheng's previous self-justification for the restaurant. According to his assumption, older people should be able to stay for half an hour longer.
The two were silent for a few seconds, and Yu Min suddenly realized something and put on an expression that said, "Brother, I understand you." He had also thought about this and that like Liu Cheng before, making random guesses, but in the end he was slapped in the face.
Although he didn't understand where Liu Cheng got the half an hour from, he was very familiar with the emotional changes on his face.
There were too many mysteries that could not be answered reasonably. Liu Cheng wanted to find out clearly. Risking offending the restaurant manager, he quietly interrupted the small meeting of Lin Luyan and others.
"Hello, I'd like to ask why my dad stayed half an hour longer than me, and are his points a gift from you as a favor?"
Lin Luyan was upset and was worried about how to collect the remaining 77 crystal cores as quickly as possible. She would even rather go to the Dawn Base to sell restaurant food and expose the restaurant's existence to danger, but she must gather so many crystal cores as soon as possible at all costs.
An unfamiliar voice broke the messy thoughts in her mind.
Turning his head, he saw an adult man in a dirty white T-shirt and light-colored shorts approaching them tentatively. He seemed to hesitate for a long time before he couldn't help but interrupt.
After Qin Simu got into trouble, a few lines of text flashed across the management panel intermittently. At that time, Lin Luyan had no interest in reading them and basically ignored them.
Now that Liu Cheng came to find her, she remembered to check the information she had received today.
[Liu Cheng: First-level speed user, 0 points, remaining time in the restaurant: 2 minutes and 7 seconds.]
[Liu Zhixing: First-level spatial ability user, 121 points, remaining time at the restaurant: 32 minutes.]
When she opened the customer information on the panel, the numbers in front of her surprised and delighted Lin Luyan.
121 points are enough to solve all her current difficulties.
She manually extended the 2 minutes to 30 minutes, and moved to Liu Zhixing's side in an instant like a gust of wind.
A sentence was left in the air: "Liu Cheng, I have extended your time. Come with me safely. I have something important to discuss with you two."
Xu Xiaojing, who was sitting side by side with Zhang Juan, closed her eyes and rested, just to better absorb the food in the restaurant, use its efficacy to replenish the lost energy and physical strength in her body as soon as possible, and then go out to kill zombies.
Hearing the noise from the boss lady, she opened her eyes and followed the direction, curious about why Lin Luyan suddenly became so excited.
The old man with the injured leg smiled respectfully and said "OK" repeatedly. He didn't expect that the manager here would ask something of him.
But Lin Luyan's next few words made his expression change again and again.
Shock, guilt, anger, and finally mixed feelings.
Liu Zhixing always thought that the crystal core disappeared for no reason because his son was valued by the team, and some villains couldn't stand him enjoying the good life with him, so they deliberately framed him.
Not only did he lose his job of managing supplies for multiple superpower teams, but he also caused Liu Cheng to be deserted by his friends and relatives in the Dawn Base. Even his reputation as a rare speed-type superpower was of no use.
It turns out that he is also a person with super powers!
No wonder the crystal core disappeared for no reason and without any warning.
He was always worried that he would not be able to take good care of the supplies due to his poor health, and wanted to protect them well.
This thought indirectly triggered Liu Zhixing's use of spatial ability. Without knowing it, he could not control the depth of the ability. Every time he "used" the ability, he would feel dizzy for a long time.
As a result, he never noticed that the supplies disappeared, which was actually his own fault.
The dirty and merciless abuse he had received from everyone in the base flashed through his mind. Every look and every movement had trampled upon the dignity of his scholarly character.
It's sad, lamentable and infuriating.
Liu Zhixing's dark face was full of the vicissitudes of life. His eyes were blurred with tears, and he held his son Liu Cheng's hands tightly, almost using up all his strength.
Fortunately, he did not give up on himself, and his son always tolerated his bad temper and stayed by his side.
Otherwise, we might be separated forever in this life.
Yu Min had previously eagerly invited them to the Wahada restaurant, but Liu Cheng was extremely reluctant.
He was worried that this place would be like the Dawn Base, where they would be given some small benefits at first, but then their true profit-seeking nature would be exposed, and they would be ruthlessly deprived of what they had worked hard for in the apocalypse, and cruelly kicked out.
At that time, although Liu Zhixing subconsciously felt that the Wahada Restaurant might be different from the Shuguang Base, he did not hold much hope.
While trying to persuade Liu Cheng with words, she was actually planning to discuss with the owner of the Wahada restaurant whether she could be sent away quietly while his son wasn't paying attention, leaving him to fend for himself in a corner where no one cared about him.
He didn't want to drag Liu Cheng down any further.
