Chapter 59 Sweet Soup
"Are you his boss?" Song Yuqing looked at Zhang Lei. Another boss, could he be of the same nature as Lin Han?
"Yes, they all call me that." Zhang Lei smiled faintly.
"What kind of boss?" Liu Xiaona and Song Yuqing thought the same thing. Having been to Base No. 27, he was a little sensitive to the title of "boss".
"I am the founder of Base No. 16."
“Do you have a supermarket there?”
"No, otherwise, this person wouldn't have come here from Base 16."
"Boss..." The black man lowered his head.
The supplies at Base 16 were in short supply, and competition among zombie hunters was fierce. Black people were low-level psychics, so their position at Base 16 was very low, and they often didn't get food. So, he risked his life to sneak out of Base 16, hoping to find another base.
For three days and three nights, the black man walked, dodging here and there, fearfully guarding against zombies. Near Chen Town, he encountered a primary zombie, which he managed to slay with immense effort. After the zombie collapsed, he dug up its core and discovered a piece of paper taped to its back. It read: "Zombies for Supplies, God's Supermarket." Curious, he tore it off and saw a crude map on the back, with the location of the God's Supermarket marked with an asterisk.
"I won't do anything to you, but now that you're out, don't even think about going back." Zhang Lei said in a flat tone with contempt in his eyes.
Song Yuqing interrupted Zhang Lei: "When did you turn black?"
"Just now! When I found this alley!" the black man sniffed, looking pitiful. He had circled Chen Town and finally found the alley on the map. Before he could even rejoice, he realized he couldn't see his hands or exposed ankles. He thought it was the darkness that prevented him from seeing his skin, so he pulled out a flashlight. His entire body was pitch black. He lifted his clothes, and his white belly was instantly stained inky black. He was terrified, thinking he was going to die.
"What's different about you after you turned black?"
"I, I don't know yet." The black man was stunned.
The black man calmed himself down, and a small stream of black water oozed out from the palm of his hand.
"Ahhh!!" The black man fell off the chair.
We are brothers in distress. Liu Xiaona helped the black man up, held his hand and sighed.
"You also have water-related abilities?" Song Yuqing raised his eyebrows. Is it such a coincidence?
"Could it be that all water-based psychics have turned black?"
“Water pollution?”
"We need more samples." Zhang Lei touched his chin and thought.
"Yes, you, go to base No. 27 and see what the situation is with the water-based mutants there." Song Yuqing was not polite and sent Zhang Lei to find out some information.
"Of course I will go." Zhang Lei came out of the base this time just to meet up with Wan Youzhi and Lin Han.
"I'll go with you." Ruan Fanfan called Conghui back to her shoulder.
Song Yuqing's mind was piecing together the clues. The relationship between Zhang Lei, Lin Han, and Ruan Fanfan seemed to be on the verge of being revealed. Song Yuqing's previous words had been merely probing, and Zhang Lei hadn't objected. This suggested that Zhang Lei's original destination must have been Base 27. Indeed, Base 27 was the closest to Chen Town.
"No rush. Since Liu Xiaona and this brother are not in danger of life for the time being, you two can have your meal first before leaving." Song Yuqing pulled Liu Xiaona up and winked at her secretly.
Liu Xiaona received Song Yuqing's signal and turned around and went into the kitchen.
The red fruit and the black hands, the contrast is too obvious.
Liu Xiaona pursed her lips, picked up the red fruit, placed it on the chopping board, chopped it one by one, soaked it in water, added rock sugar and wolfberry, and cooked it over low heat.
In the store, Song Yuqing was inquiring about Zhang Lei's Base No. 16.
"What's your base like? Do you need supplies?"
"My base is under military management, and there are space-capable people in charge of the supply of materials."
Song Yuqing chuckled: "Don't you see how abundant my supplies are? I really don't need them."
"I'll contact you if I need you." Zhang Lei still maintained a cold tone.
"Multiple suppliers is not bad, right?" Ruan Fanfan blinked, but Zhang Lei didn't look at her.
Song Yuqing stood up and stretched.
Zhang Lei glanced at Gaha and said, "If Gaha can come with me, I will agree to cooperate with you."
"Gaha!" Bad guy, bad guy, bad guy! Bad guy who wants to use me as a guinea pig!
Gaha wanted to attack, but he held back, snorted, turned around and went back to his room.
"Don't say such nonsense again, or you won't be able to come to God's Supermarket for coffee." Song Yuqing paused, "Heh, we don't lack a partner like you."
"Really?" Zhang Lei chuckled, which made Song Yuqing feel itchy and want to hit someone.
The little meat bun bared his teeth at Zhang Lei. This guy is too arrogant!
Liu Xiaona finally came out of the kitchen with the food, and Song Yuqing went forward to help Liu Xiaona serve the food.
The first dish was satay beef, the second dish was scrambled eggs, and the third dish was a big bowl of sweet soup.
"Apple soup strengthens the spleen and stomach, and beautifies the skin." Liu Xiaona was afraid that Ruan Fanfan and Zhang Lei would notice something, so she added this.
"This sweet soup goes with rice?" Ruan Fanfan said with some disgust.
"You don't want to drink?" Liu Xiaona's heart was alarmed. She snatched Ruan Fanfan and Zhang Lei's soup bowls and scooped a full bowl of sweet soup. "Drink it. If you don't drink it, it means you look down on my cooking skills. You can't eat this meal!"
"Then don't eat it. I'm a picky eater." Zhang Lei didn't reach out to take the soup handed to him by Liu Xiaona, but put down his chopsticks instead.
"I'm just kidding. It's up to you whether you drink it or not." Liu Xiaona obediently put the bowl of soup on the table.
"Wow, it's delicious! I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time!" The black man's mouth was full of food and his eyes were filled with tears.
"Then drink more." Ruan Fanfan handed Zhang Lei's bowl of sweet soup to the black man.
Liu Xiaona and Song Yuqing looked at each other and said, "Oh no! The plan failed miserably."
No, it's not completely lost yet.
The black man drank the sweet soup and became more and more excited. He didn't eat the meat and ate the rice. After finishing a bowl of sweet soup, he scooped another spoonful.
"Is it so delicious?"
"Hmm! The most delicious food in the world!" the black man exclaimed in surprise.
So delicious? Seeing this, Liu Xiaona scooped a spoonful for herself and tasted it. It was indeed delicious. It was sweet at first, and after swallowing, a variety of flavors swirled on the tip of her tongue.
"It's delicious! I'm like a real chef!"
"It's just apple soup, how can it be so delicious?" Ruan Fanfan was a little skeptical.
"You'll know after trying it." Zhang Lei responded, reaching out to scoop up the soup. He didn't want to miss out on this delicious delicacy.
Seeing Zhang Lei and Ruan Fanfan each eating a bowl of sweet soup, Song Yuqing and Liu Xiaona smiled at each other.
"How do you make this soup?"
"Hehe, this soup is simple and unpretentious, but the ingredients used are good, they are..." Liu Xiaona also drank the sweet soup, the truth fruit was affecting him.
