Chapter 48 Your biological mother lost her job
[I can prove that the anchor really didn't get living expenses in the third year of junior high school. Do you still remember me, little girl? I was the one who gave you 200 yuan that year. ]
When Shen Linglan saw this barrage, her heart skipped a beat.
Is that him? The young older brother?
She had a relaxed look on her face, but suddenly her expression became tense, leaving the people in the barrage confused. She hadn't reacted to the barrage of insults just now, so why was she suddenly upset now?
Some sharp-eyed netizens noticed that Shen Linglan was poking at her phone, as if she was looking for a bullet screen.
But there were already 120,000 viewers in the live broadcast room at this time, and the barrage of comments was refreshing very quickly. I didn't know which one caught her attention.
Shen Linglan scrolled up for a long time before finally finding the user with the ID Carl. She quickly added him as a friend.
"I remember you..."
She lowered her eyes, as if the helplessness and sadness of those years had reappeared before her.
But just as she made a sound, the system in her brain suddenly started to ring.
"Ding, congratulations to the host's best friend for successfully starting the task of clearing the green giant. The current progress is 1/5, and the space expansion function has been enabled!"
Shen Linglan couldn't sit still any longer. Why would Duobaoer start the mission of exterminating that monster? !
She was about to say something, but was interrupted by the prompt sound. Shen Linglan immediately didn't bother to post a video to clarify all the mess. She turned off the live video without hesitation and wanted to call Zhao Yunduo, but she was afraid that calling her would distract her.
Shen Linglan quickly sent several messages to Zhao Yunduo and waited for a minute. As expected, there was no response and all the messages fell into oblivion.
"God bless my baby and keep him safe and sound, I hope nothing happens to him."
"Host, rest assured. We have detected that Zhao Yunduo's vital signs are normal, with no external or internal injuries."
The cold system prompt sounded, and this time it actually answered Shen Linglan's words.
Shen Linglan didn't want to miss this opportunity. She had to know more about what her best friend had experienced, so she asked, "Where did she go and what happened?"
"Zhao Yunduo and Cui Zhende jointly destroyed one of the roots of the green giant and achieved initial victory."
One of the rhizomes, combined with the system prompt of "one fifth", it means that four-fifths of the green giant are still intact.
Shen Linglan was really worried, but there was nothing she could do since she couldn't contact Zhao Yunduo. She could only think of other ideas to see how much she could help her best friend.
First of all, the space can be further expanded. The original space was only 100 square meters, but now it can be expanded to 200 square meters. The price is twice as expensive as before. Now every 10 square meters costs 200 million yuan. Shen Linglan spent 2 billion yuan without hesitation.
The extra space can hold a lot of things.
Shen Linglan grabbed the bag in her hand and ran downstairs quickly without even having time to wash up.
First of all, we need to put all the remaining gasoline in the warehouse into the space, and then we should find Song Zhangcheng to buy more weapons. It would be best if we could buy those super powerful bombs and explosives. It would be even better if there is a bomb that can destroy a city in an instant when dropped!
But unexpectedly, just after Shen Linglan transferred all the gasoline from the warehouse to Zhao Yunduo's space, she received a reply from Song Zhangcheng.
Shen Linglan: [I want to buy guns and bombs, the more the better.]
Song Zhangcheng: [? Have you used up the last one? What kind of terrorist are you?]
Shen Linglan: [No, I need it urgently.]
Song Zhangcheng: [I can think of a way to get guns, but I don’t have the means to get bombs and explosives.]
Shen Linglan silently complained in her heart: "Song Zhangcheng must not be doing well in the circle. He can't even get a bomb."
Song Zhangcheng, who received the message, actually went to ask his eldest brother. When his eldest brother heard that he wanted to get some explosives to sell, he rolled his eyes at him and bluntly called him sick.
Explosives are indeed difficult to deal with, but other large items can also be arranged, such as generators and water purifiers. The last time I heard Zhao Yunduo say that the water in the apocalypse is not drinkable, it is all black or red blood water, extremely dirty.
Bottled water is also very important. Water purifiers cannot be used everywhere. It is better to prepare water so that Zhao Yunduo can use it whenever she wants. Large bottled water can also be used for bathing.
Soon, the space was filled up. Three generators, two water purifiers, and the remaining fifteen barrels of gasoline were divided into small barrels and placed in the space. The rest was filled with bottled water.
The original half had a lot of space left because the gasoline that had been piled up had been used up.
Shen Linglan put all the food in. No matter what time, food is definitely the most urgent need, and she needed to ensure that Zhao Yunduo had at least one month's worth of food.
Even if Zhao Yunduo suddenly felt like inviting hundreds of people to a banquet, it would be more than enough.
Shen Linglan now has enough money to try more high-end restaurants. Every time she tries something she thinks is good, she packs up several portions for Zhao Yunduo, such as salmon, sea urchin sashimi, sea urchin fried rice, and the Wellington steak that they had been craving for a long time and said they would definitely try it once they had money.
Every time Zhao Yunduo finished eating, she would send a message to Shen Linglan to discuss which one tasted better. Unexpectedly, they both agreed that they preferred the Wellington steak.
After replenishing her supplies, Shen Linglan opened the short video APP on her way back. She then discovered that her account already had nearly a thousand messages. The suspended memory of the afternoon suddenly came back to her mind. Shen Linglan casually flipped through a few private messages and suddenly thought of something. She opened the chat interface with the person named Carl. On it was a greeting message from him:
Carl: [Girl, long time no see. I almost didn't recognize you. From the video I can see that you are doing well now. Congratulations.]
If there is anyone in this world who truly hopes Shen Linglan lives a good life, one is Zhao Yunduo, and the other is this young big brother whom she has only met once - no, it has been several years, and Carl should no longer be the young big brother.
Shen Linglan replied: [Thank you for that year. May I ask if your name is Carl? I have been wanting to repay your kindness for so many years.]
Carl: [Haha, no need, little girl. It was just a piece of cake back then. I am not telling you about this now to ask you to pay me back, nor to take credit for it. I am just watching you "debate with the crowd". Although it is fun, it makes you feel a little isolated and helpless.]
Isolated and helpless, these four short words made Shen Linglan's eyes red.
Then, Carl sent another message.
Carl: [I sent you a message this afternoon, but I haven’t received a reply from you. So I took the initiative to tell others about this matter. Your biological mother has indeed failed to fulfill her responsibilities as a mother.]
After sending this message, Carl never replied to Shen Linglan again.
Shen Linglan opened his homepage and saw that there was only one video under his account. In the video was a young man in his thirties who looked serious and solemn.
He was wearing a clean white T-shirt, with a white wall in the background. Carl had a face that looked very much like an "intellectual", which was quite different from the impression Shen Linglan had of him.
"Hello everyone, my name is Carl, my Chinese name is Lu Shaohua. Seven years ago, I lived in a residential area with Sun Xiuli, Shen Linglan's biological mother. One morning when I got up early to go to work, I met a girl at the bottom of the stairs. The girl was Shen Linglan.
"She sat there in the cold night because she couldn't get tuition and living expenses from her mother. That morning, I gave Shen Linglan 200 yuan to pay her tuition. This is why Shen Linglan's financial transaction records were cut off in the third year of junior high school.
"I am willing to vouch for it with my career that every word Shen Linglan said is true."
