awakening
Speaking of money, Li Pingan put on a professional fake smile again, "Guest,"
As soon as she said that, she was interrupted by Annie again, "Just call me Annie."
"Okay," Li Pingan continued, "Mr. Annie, you can just call me Pingan. Could you please confirm receipt on your phone?"
If the customer does not click to confirm, Li Ping'an will have to wait 24 hours to receive the money, which is really a headache.
"Oh, okay." Annie then remembered that she hadn't paid yet, so she quickly took out her cell phone and clicked a few times.
Li Ping'an picked up his cell phone and took a look. Not only had 500 yuan been deposited into his account, but he also received an extra 1,000 yuan tip. Suddenly, the smile on his face became more genuine.
"Open the payment code on your mobile phone and I will pay you a deposit first." After paying the deposit, Annie felt more at ease. Otherwise, she was always worried that the master would dislike her and abandon her one day.
These words touched Li Ping'an's heart, and she suddenly felt that her financial sponsor was radiating brilliant light in this dim room.
Looking at the money received on her mobile phone, Li Ping'an counted it in disbelief. The string of zeros dazzled her. She was full of fighting spirit. Don't worry, my dear sponsor, I will definitely send it to your mother in its entirety.
Seeing the master laugh, Annie also laughed. The two of them were facing each other in the dim room, grinning with their teeth bared, which felt a bit weird.
Apparently they realized it themselves. After giggling for a while, Li Pingan was about to take Annie away. Annie quickly stuffed two bottles of water into her bag.
Li Ping'an originally thought that it would be difficult to leave the community, and expected all kinds of lackeys to hinder Annie's travel. Unexpectedly, the journey was smooth, but Annie's alert look did not seem to be acting.
It was not until they walked out of the community that the two had a disagreement. Annie said she wanted to drive her off-road vehicle north, but Li Pingan felt that people would be able to locate her by the license plate number, so he suggested riding his motorcycle north.
Annie looked at the master's motorcycle, which was well maintained but still very old, and was a little hesitant. She felt that it was too dangerous. If they encountered a group of zombies, they would become rotating sushi, and anyone could reach out and grab them, with no protection. It was too dangerous.
In the end, Annie compromised. After all, it was she who begged the master to take her north.
A motorcycle roared past on the street. When a zombie nearby smelled a human and was about to pounce on it, all that was left in front of it was the exhaust gas.
Annie on the motorcycle grabbed Li Ping'an's clothes, fearing that she would be blown down. Glancing at the scattered zombies with flesh falling from their faces, Annie felt like she was going to vomit out the water she had just drunk out of nausea.
Li Ping'an didn't see any zombies on the road. He just felt that there were too few people in this place. He hadn't met a single passerby since he left home. It was like an empty city.
"Why is there no one on this road?" Li Ping'an asked, his voice drifting away with the wind.
"What did you say?" Annie vaguely heard a voice coming, but couldn't hear what Li Pingan said, so she shouted behind her.
"I say, why is there no one on my road?" Li Pingan raised his voice and asked again.
Annie still didn't hear clearly. Li Pingan opened his mouth and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later."
Li Pingan saw that there was no one on the road and drove very fast. The buildings on the roadside flashed by. Just when Annie thought that Li Pingan would rush out of the city with her, Li Pingan's speed gradually slowed down and stopped in front of a gas station on the side of the road. "The gas is almost out, please fill it up."
Li Ping'an stopped the motorcycle and waited for the staff to come and refuel, but no one came after waiting for a long time.
Annie, who was standing by, slapped her forehead and sighed that she was ignorant. How could she just stand there and wait for the master to take action? This was an opportunity given by the master to show her ability.
Li Pingan was about to go inside and call the staff when he saw Annie pick up the gas pump. His eyes widened immediately, thinking she was anxious, and immediately stepped forward to take the pump down. "Don't worry, I'll go call the staff, don't worry."
After saying that, he put the gas pump back and walked in. Annie was afraid that if he was a little slow, she would do it herself again. Annie watched the master walk in and quickly looked around. Fortunately, there were only a few zombies wandering in the distance, but this also made her a little scared, so she quickly followed him in.
After entering, they found Li Pingan standing at the door of the small house, looking inside. The door was wide open, and there was no one inside. Li Pingan was wondering, when Annie behind him whispered, "What's wrong? Are there zombies in here?"
Li Ping'an was thinking carefully, and when he heard Annie's question, he habitually said "hmm". After he said "hmm", he realized something was wrong. Hey, what did she say?
"Zombies?" His tone was full of disbelief.
"Yes, are there zombies inside?" Annie wanted to look inside, but was afraid to face the ugly appearance of the zombies, so she had to hide behind Li Pingan.
At first, Li Ping'an thought that there was something wrong with Annie's brain and she might be a mental patient, but then she thought that she didn't meet anyone on the way here. This was not normal. Although Nanlin City is not a super first-tier city, it is at least a second-tier city. How could there be no one on the road?
But if there really was a zombie outbreak, why didn’t I see any zombies along the way?
Just as Li Ping'an was thinking, Annie suddenly screamed softly. She saw a person staggering out from behind the small house. The way he walked didn't look like a normal person at all.
"Master, hurry up, there are zombies over there."
Li Ping'an looked in the direction Annie pointed, but there was nothing there.
But when he looked down at Anne's frightened expression and trembling body, it didn't seem fake.
Li Ping'an picked up a mop standing in front of the door and took a defensive stance.
"Ahhh" Annie screamed in a low voice, "Hurry up and fight, there is a zombie in front of you." Seeing that Li Pingan did not take the next step and the zombie was getting closer and closer, Annie was a little scared.
"Where? Where?" Li Ping'an was a little overwhelmed by what she said. Why couldn't she see any zombies? There was clearly nothing in front of her.
"He's about to pounce on you, hurry up and hit him with a stick." Annie said quickly when she saw the zombie with a purple face about to kiss Li Pingan.
"I X" Li Ping'an followed Annie's instructions and swung the stick in his hand, vaguely seeming to hit something.
The world became quiet. Li Ping'an held the mop and felt both awesome and stupid. After all, no one knew whether what Annie said was true.
"You are so awesome." After the moment of fear passed, Annie looked at Li Ping'an with stars in her eyes. He could blow a zombie's head off with just a mop.
Li Pingan endured it again and again, but couldn't help asking, "Are you really not lying to me? Are there really zombies?"
Annie felt extremely safe at this moment. She clung tightly to Li Pingan and nodded heavily.
If she hadn't lied to him, Li Ping'an looked up at the sky with a blank expression. Was this what it meant to only see the employer in the physical sense? Wasn't he just blind now?
After sticking to it for a while, Annie realized something was wrong and asked, "Ping An, can't you see the zombies?"
Li Pingan didn't want to hide this matter. She nodded when she heard it, then slid down to the ground against the wall, holding her head in her hands, and digesting this matter. She thought she was saving the canary heroine in the melodramatic novel, but she didn't expect that she would have to escort the young gold master through the sea of corpses alone. The problem was that she couldn't see zombies yet. What's the difference between that and being blind? Also, is this still her original world?
Li Ping'an's hair was tied up like a chicken coop by herself. At this moment, the mobile phone in her pocket vibrated.
Li Pingan habitually took out his mobile phone and took a look at it. "Download completed." What the hell was downloaded? A black little bee APP with the words "Running errands across time and space" written below it.
Li Pingan clicked on it without thinking and took a look. The signal seemed to be a little poor. He waited for a long time before logging in. "Congratulations, Li Pingan, for completing your registration and becoming the 1147th inter-time and space runner."
Isn't this a case of acting first and asking for permission later? Did she say she wanted to be some kind of inter-dimensional errand runner?
Annie watched from the side for a long time. Li Ping'an just sat on the ground, tapping on her mobile phone. She carefully thought about everything that had just happened and thought that she didn't want to do it anymore and was planning to give up.
This won't do. Annie simply sat aside and said, "Ping An, when are we going to set off?"
Hearing this, Li Ping'an moved her eyes away from the phone and looked at Annie with a serious face. Annie thought she was going to talk about something serious, so she sat up straight, intending to pester Li Ping'an if he quit.
Unexpectedly, Li Ping'an just looked at her for a few seconds, then put his finger in front of his mouth and said, "Shh, don't say that depressing word." What's the point of saying "on the road or not"? It sounds so unpleasant.
Annie said "Oh" obediently, and she was secretly happy when she thought that Li Ping'an did not say he would quit.
"Just keep an eye on it. If you see any zombies, call me."
Although she didn't know what Li Ping'an was doing, Annie still agreed obediently, her head working like a radar.
Li Ping'an sorted out the matter in her mind. After completing Annie's order, she was automatically selected to become a cross-time and space errand runner. This APP is quite humane. As long as she doesn't lose her phone, the APP can protect her from harm. After completing the order, she can click "End" above to return to the real world.
Thinking of this, Li Ping'an glanced at Annie beside him. Logically, her order should have been completed. The moment Annie confirmed receipt of the goods, she could return to the real world.
She privately agreed to send Annie to her mother, but it was just a verbal agreement between the two of them and was not explicitly stated on the APP. In other words, she can leave now if she wants to.
Li Pingan's eyes were complicated. To be honest, she didn't want to stay in this world. After all, her own safety depended on this phone. If the phone was lost...
"Ping'an, it's so strange, why are there so few zombies nearby." Annie saw that Li Ping'an was not looking at her phone and quickly told her about her discovery. When she came, she could still see some zombies wandering back and forth in the distance, but now there is not a single one.
Li Ping'an looked at Annie's big round eyes, sighed, rubbed her head, stood up and thought, "Forget it, she had already received the deposit. It won't be too late to send her to her mother before leaving."
"Ping An, are we leaving?"
"Fill up the gas first and then go." Li Ping'an felt a little regretful now. She should have agreed to Annie's suggestion of driving an off-road vehicle. She didn't know if her motorcycle could last until Beiji City.
"Then Ping'an, can I go to the convenience store to get some food later?" Annie looked back at the convenience store in the gas station every few steps, her eyes full of longing. After all, she was out of water and then food in the house, and now there was only the bottle of mineral water in her stomach that she had drunk before.
"How long has the zombie outbreak been going on?" Li Ping'an wanted to get more information, so he asked as he took her to the convenience store.
