Chapter 373: Xie Chunyan and the little boy
The woman's voice sounded somewhat familiar, as if I had heard it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember where it was at the moment.
Xiang Yu stepped on the pedal and drove a little closer to the two of them. After getting closer, she looked them up and down.
The child had been hiding behind the woman. When he saw Xiang Yu approaching, he was even more afraid to come out from behind the woman.
The woman's eyes were always dodging, not daring to look directly at Yu. Her gaze was always fixed on the ground, and the basket in her hands was also covered with a black cloth.
A familiar fragrance lingered around, and almost instantly, Xiang Yu reached out and covered his mouth and nose with the oxygen mask.
He lowered his head and frowned as he looked at the basket in the woman's hand. The woman seemed to realize that Xiang Yu knew what was in her basket.
She quickly reached out and opened a corner of the basket, directly displaying the contents in front of Xiang Yu. They were some white flowers that had been pulled out by the roots.
"Sister, I won't lie to you. This thing can cause hallucinations. Many big shots in the shelter are vying for it..."
As the woman introduced herself, she looked up at Xiang Yu in front of her. After she saw Xiang Yu's face clearly, the words she was about to say were stuck in her throat.
Isn’t this fate?
"You are Xiang Yu, right..." The woman's tone was very certain, she seemed to be sure that the person in front of her was the Xiang Yu she knew.
Why do I keep meeting people who know me these past two days? Xiang Yu's brows were filled with thought, and she looked at the woman's face.
But the woman's face was wrapped too tightly, leaving only a pair of dark eyes exposed. The voice sounded somewhat familiar.
The woman seemed to see the confusion in Xiang Yu's eyes. She chuckled twice, then reached out and pulled off the headscarf from her face.
"It's me, I'm Xie Chunyan. Three years ago in F City, we moved a corpse together."
Xie Chunyan's tone was full of excitement. After she left with the little boy, she fled all the way here on foot.
The two of them were hiding from place to place along the way, and after the little boy was exposed in the beginning, they were indeed hunted down.
But fortunately, they escaped safely. Recently, when thick fog began to fall, she wandered here again with the little boy.
After entering R City, because she was just an ordinary person, the moment she came into contact with the fragrance of white flowers, she fell into an illusion.
But those unknown plants didn't seem to pose any threat to the little boy. When she fell into the illusion, it was the little boy who saved her.
In the past few years, the two have been dependent on each other.
Maybe it was because of the genetic changes in the little boy, those white flowers were just ordinary things to him.
From then on, the two stayed in R City. The little boy would pick some white flowers every day, and then they would take them to the R City staff to exchange for supplies.
The two of them spent a long time like this, and last night they heard that someone was collecting something here.
They came here early in the morning carrying their things, but the power of the white flower was quite strong, so they did not dare to get too close to the crowd.
"Three years ago, in F City," after the woman reminded him, Xiang Yu instantly remembered who the woman in front of him was.
Xie Chunyan, the butcher, after remembering her identity, Xiang Yu looked at the little boy behind her.
The little boy had actually seen Xiang Yu a long time ago. The thick fog did not have much effect on his eyes. Ordinary people could only see within a distance of one or two meters.
But he could see further.
When he was hiding under that house, it was Xiang Yu and Mother Xie who saved him. Although he has been following Mother Xie all these years, he still has some impression of Xiang Yu.
In fact, she has always been very curious about this little boy. Looking at the white flowers in Xie Chunyan's hand, she became even more curious about these two people.
After her last test, this white flower seemed to be quite lethal to ordinary people.
But looking at Xie Chunyan's appearance, why does she act like nothing happened?
"Why are you here?" Xiang Yu asked, but there were too many survivors coming and going nearby.
Xie Chunyan immediately covered her face with the headscarf again. In fact, over the past few years, people in City A and City B have been looking for them.
"It's a long story," Xie Chunyan's face was full of bitterness, but fortunately she had managed to survive all these years.
"Well, you two get in the car first," Xiang Yu always kept her eyes on the little boy. She was always very observant.
If I'm not mistaken, this little boy's eyes seem to be able to see clearly in the thick fog.
Xie Chunyan's basket contained only a small portion of white flowers, while the little boy's basket was full.
It can be seen that the hallucinogenic effect of the white flower has no effect on this little boy. In fact, in the past few years, she has been secretly doing some small research.
Xie Chunyan looked at the expression on Xiang Yu's face and finally pulled the little boy into the car. Xiang Yu was able to keep the secret for her and let her and the little boy leave.
It can be seen that this woman is not a bad person.
