201 The Tenth Store
◎Not clingy at all.◎
Xia Huaisong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing Lu Yao with Lu Mingxiao, he whispered, "Is the instructor really the store owner's boyfriend?"
The night before, when they parted on the main road in front of the Wan Yi Hospital, the store owner's tone was especially like his girlfriend who was still on a mission.
Xue Qian would be very angry if she found out that he had run away when she returned to the base, and she might even want to catch him back.
Li Mi said without thinking: "With the instructor's skills and temper, if he doesn't want to, who can force him? I think he just follows people because he likes it."
Xia Huaisong: "Maybe. I heard from the people in Team 10 that the instructor may have known Lu Yao before."
Li Mi also heard about the first meeting between the two in the hospital, but now is obviously not the time to gossip, although they have been chatting for a long time, and it seems that seeing the errand boy appear, the mood has stabilized unconsciously.
Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao parked the car in the distance, wandered on the side of the road for a while, and then slowly walked towards the intersection.
Lu Yao looked at the two cars stuck in the middle: "The client won't be in the car, right?"
Lu Mingxiao: "Clean up the zombies first?"
Lu Yao: "No hurry, deliver the goods first."
Lu Yao walked closer to observe, lowered his head and took out a thin telescopic rod from the cloth bag, with a small clip hanging on the end of the rod.
Lu Yao opened the telescopic rod, passed the zombies and handed it to the window of the van's driver's seat.
Xia Huaisong was stunned for a few seconds before he understood Lu Yao's intention, and took out a big gold chain as thick as his little finger from his pocket and clipped it on the clip.
Lu Yao retracted the telescopic pole, took out the gold-eating Pi Xiu from the cloth bag, collected the payment, and used the telescopic pole to hand the remaining gold chain and business card back to the car.
Zhao Bowen and Zhang Haizhu in the next car were stunned by this operation.
When Lu Yao was delivering the goods and collecting the payment, a zombie discovered them and slowly turned around, making a rough and unpleasant sound with its big mouth.
Before it could slowly approach, Lu Mingxiao raised his hand and cut off its head.
There was no weapon in his hand, and there was no rotten meat mucus on his fingers.
In the blink of an eye, four or five headless rotten corpses had fallen around the two runners.
The zombies made no sound when their heads fell to the ground and their bodies collapsed. Most of the zombies were still paying attention to the two cars.
Zhao Bowen urged Zhang Haizhu: "Hurry up! Take out the gold, we'll buy it too!"
These two people are too damn scary to cut zombies with their bare hands!!!
Zhang Haizhu was just rummaging in her bag. When she packed her luggage, she actually didn't plan to take the gold. At that time, she suddenly remembered the errand runner that Mei Xin's mother mentioned, so she took a few things and put them in her bag.
Fortunately, I thought of this last night, otherwise I would really have no one to ask for help today.
Xia Huaisong and Li Mi bought twenty business cards
in one go. Zhao Bowen only wrote one when he placed the order. After seeing the deliveryman's operation, he also added twenty, and bought a total of twenty-one business cards.
The customers in the two cars took the business cards, turned to the back and filled out the orders according to the instructions.
In less than two minutes, Lu Yao received two dispatch messages.
The signal receiver was installed in the Changsheng Road area not long ago, and the network has just been covered. The store clerks have not come to sweep the area yet, nor have they arranged special errand runners.
The two orders from Li Mi and Zhao Bowen were purely accidental. Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao happened to be here and solved them easily.
Lu Yao pulled the knife sheath on her leg, and the red line automatically wrapped around her wrist. She walked to the left: "I'll clean this side, and that side is yours." Lu Yao
walked to the perimeter of the van, and seven palm-length knives flew out of the sheath. She grabbed one and tapped the metal fence on the side of the road with the back of the knife. The harsh sound attracted the zombies surrounding the car.
The group of zombies began to slowly turn their heads and chase Lu Yao, but they moved slowly and in small steps.
Lu Yao slowly retreated, leading the zombies to disperse.
There was finally some space around the two cars that were surrounded.
Lu Yao led most of the zombies to the roadside, pretending to reach into her cloth bag, but actually took something out of her portable storage, pulled out a piece of fresh raw meat, and threw it out in a high-profile manner. After
briefly attracting the attention of some zombies, she stepped back and walked around them, returning to the roadside to clean up the zombies that were still reluctant to leave.
The knife with a red string tied to the end rotated according to the force of her wrist, and passed under a potato head like a propeller.
The potato heads rolled down in rows, like ripe tomatoes falling to the ground, with a snap, and the mucus and rotten meat splashed everywhere, smashing them into pieces.
Lu Yao used some skills, but Lu Mingxiao was very rough and cleared all the zombies around the car in just a few minutes.
Li Mi and Xia Huaisong were dumbfounded in the car, and they were once again sure that the instructor was slacking off every day at the base and had never been serious.
The most annoying thing was that even if this person didn't use his full strength, he was still the most respected and powerful instructor at the Hope Base.
The owner was not as violent as the instructor, but he was also very comfortable with it.
Zhao Bowen and his family got out of the zombie group. Zhao Bowen turned around and talked to Zhang Haizhu, and it seemed that they had some arguments.
After a few minutes, Zhao Bowen rolled down the car window, said hello to Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao standing on the roadside to express his gratitude, waved to Xia Huaisong and Li Mi through the car door as a farewell, and then drove straight to the border.
They still decided to go to the Hope Base.
Li Mi and Xia Huaisong did not reveal the situation of the base, nor did they persuade them not to go.
They met all kinds of people in the base, and people had different needs. They never wanted to join any base again, but some people yearned for the stability and safety of the base.
When the black car disappeared from sight, Li Mi and Xia Huaisong got out of the car, excitedly greeted Lu Mingxiao, and thanked Lu Yao.
Lu Yao: "If you place an order, you are a customer. You don't have to be so polite."
Li Mi couldn't help asking: "The flyer says that we only accept orders within ten kilometers of the store. This errand shop should be more than ten kilometers away, right?" Lu Yao
nodded: "You are lucky. The signal network has just been laid here today. If it were earlier, we might not receive any orders."
Xia Huaisong was amazed: "It's actually a signal network!!! Is there really a technology that can capture what is written on a piece of paper?"
Lu Yao: "It's a commercial secret. I can't tell you. So why are you in Gaosheng City again?"
Li Mi's face was unnatural for a second. She didn't mention Li Guanghai. She slowly clasped her hands hanging by her side and said casually: "We have left the Hope Base and plan to develop in Gaosheng City in the future." Lu Yao
was a little surprised.
Later, she heard from Zhao Ye and his little brothers that the treatment of the search team in the base was not bad, better than ordinary people, at least they didn't have to worry about food and money.
Lu Mingxiao didn't say much, but he also confirmed what Zhao Ye said.
People with a little ability can still live better in the base after training and joining the search team.
These two people seemed to have some difficulties, and Lu Yao didn't continue to ask.
She was worried about the signal receiver that had not been set up yet. After delivering the goods, she took two more errands, which delayed her for a while. She couldn't continue to slack off.
Li Mi called Lu Yao: "Shopkeeper, we want to find a safe place to stay. Can we place an order for an errand runner to pick us up?"
Lu Yao turned his head to look at Lu Mingxiao and answered slowly: "I have something to do at the moment, so I'm afraid I can't take the order. What about you?"
Li Mi and Xia Huaisong followed the direction of Lu Yao's sight and looked at Lu Mingxiao expectantly.
Lu Mingxiao's face was calm: "I'm a newcomer and I'm not familiar with this city. I want to learn more from the shopkeeper. It's better to ask experienced seniors."
Lu Yao: "..."
Li Mi couldn't help but secretly pull Xia Huaisong's clothes.
Xia Huaisong looked at them in confusion: "???"
Li Mi shook her head.
Xia Huaisong was a very straight man and didn't understand what the instructor meant.
Li Mi immediately asked: "Will other runners come?"
Lu Yao contacted Zhang Shu and found a free runner.
After hanging up the call, Lu Yao said to the two of them: "Strictly speaking, the errand business in the Changsheng Road area has not been officially opened. However, runners who are free at the moment will be charged twice the fee. If you are willing, you can place an order."
The van was anchored. There was no gas station nearby. Li Mi and Xia Huaisong were nervous all night and were exhausted. They just wanted to find a place to stay as soon as possible. They didn't care about the double errand fee at all. They placed the order without thinking.
Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao had to continue working, with the goal of completing the fifty-kilometer network coverage today.
After the two left, Li Mi and Xia Huaisong returned to the van and waited for the new errand boy to pick them up.
------
The area of fifty kilometers is not small, and the marginal area is close to the suburbs, so the workload is still quite heavy.
However, with Lu Mingxiao's company, it seemed that they were not so scared at night. Lu Yao worked an extra night shift and insisted on installing all the signal receivers before returning. It
was already past ten o'clock in the evening when the two returned to the store. The modified small electric car made almost no noise, and would no longer disturb nearby residents and zombies wandering on the street.
However, after nightfall, only the door of the errand shop near Guanyin Road was lit. Lu Yao and Lu Mingxiao had just returned, but they were still noticed by the residents near the shop. Lu
Yao parked his electric car in front of the errand shop.
Dream Fulfillment System: "There are more people on this street."
Before Lu Yao could ask, the college students who lived next to the errand shop came out, and two young children walked out of the shop next door to Tang Anqi's house.
On the other side of the errand shop, two new people, Li Mi and Xia Huaisong, moved in next door to Jiang Yifei and Zhou Mingyang's residence.
Lu Yao was surprised to see so many people gathered at the door of the errand shop: "You all moved to Guanyin Road?"
Zheng Han and Zheng Xinxin were brought by Harold. The brother and sister were young, and it was not easy for them to survive living somewhere else, so Harold brought them to the vicinity of the errand shop.
The brother and sister met Tang Anqi's team, and after chatting with them for a while, Zheng Han decided to move in with his sister.
Because the house next to Tang Anqi's house was booked by Ding Qing, the brother and sister lived next to Ding Qing.
Tang Anqi's team learned about the situation of Zheng Han and his sister, and went to the building materials market in the afternoon to help find materials, and asked the errand runner to deliver them back.
Before dark, they helped the brother and sister replace the outermost roller shutter door so that they could rest at night.
Li Mi and Xia Huaisong were brought here by Qiuyu.
They said they wanted to stay in a slightly safer place, so Qiuyu thought of the safe community construction plan that the owner mentioned at the meeting last night, and took them to Guanyin Road without thinking.
Li Mi's team also met the enthusiastic Tang Anqi team. After the two sides communicated, Li Mi and Xia Huaisong also decided to stay near the errand shop and chose the next door to Jiang Yifei's house.
Lu Yao was surrounded by enthusiastic new neighbors at the door of the errand shop.
Harold heard the noise outside and knew that Lu Yao was back. After waiting for a while, he didn't see her come in, so he got up and walked out impatiently.
Zhang Shu and several errand runners had already gone off work, leaving only Ding Qing and Harold to guard the store.
Shortly after nightfall, Budu came from the hot spring hotel to find Lu Yao. Hearing that she had not returned yet, he wanted to go out to look for her, but was persuaded by Harold to stay in the store and did not leave.
Budu followed Harold out and stood at the door: "Mother."
The lively atmosphere on the roadside suddenly stagnated because of the word "mother".
The neighbors slowly turned their heads and saw the little boy standing at the door.
The little boy was a little younger than Zheng Xinxin. His soft silver short hair was thin and shiny, and it softly stuck to the sides of the boy's tender cheeks.
The boy also had a pair of bright and dazzling red eyes. At first glance, he looked like the new silver-haired errand boy in the store. But if you look closely, you will feel that he looks more like the owner.
Lu Yao didn't expect Bu Du to come over. Seeing him standing at the door without moving, he waved at him: "Can you come out?"
Bu Du pursed his lips slightly, raised his eyes and glanced at the man standing behind Lu Yao, then stepped out of the Star Gate.
Tang Anqi looked back and forth at Lu Yao and Bu Du in surprise, full of curiosity. Could that "mother" really be calling the owner?
Bu Du walked steadily to Lu Yao: "Mother."
Lu Yao squatted down and touched his soft hair: "It seems that this world is okay. The weather is getting cooler, and you seem to be able to go out freely."
Bu Du nodded obediently, and couldn't help blurting out: "Mother, I also want to be an errand boy."
[Author's words]
Irresponsible Little Theater:
Not Du: "Mom, I also want to be an errand runner."
Lu Yao smiled: "Be good, I'll go to kindergarten tomorrow."
