Chapter 417 The Unscrupulous Merchant in the Apocalypse 32



Instead of heading towards Cangling, the two drove to the next city before running out of gas.

After the routine check, the two filled up their tank, but then became frustrated when they went to buy spare fuel.

Because they need your ID card.

Linghu Lan's ID card is invalid; Lu Li is an unregistered resident...

This is awkward!

...

The doorbell rang.

A man cautiously locked the door and opened it a crack. In this post-apocalyptic world, although order was still relatively intact, having witnessed the filth of human nature, he remained wary of the world.

Who are you?

“I used to be Lin Ke’s colleague, and now I work for the Children’s Rescue Association. I heard that she had died, so I wanted to come and see her and bring some food for the children.”

The man breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that she was indeed carrying a plastic bag; they really didn't have enough food at home.

He opened the door and let the man and woman in.

A little girl walked out of the room and looked indifferently at the two people in front of her.

Linghu Lan smiled awkwardly. Acting is definitely not my forte.

"Here's the thing, I can apply for some relief supplies for the child, but I need her mother's ID card first, because this benefit is for children from single-parent families, and we need to prove that she has passed away. Do you think it's convenient for you to find her ID card?"

Upon hearing this, the man's eyes immediately reddened. "Okay, wait for me, I'll go look for it."

He quickly found an ID card in the room.

The ID card showed a very beautiful woman, and the little girl looked like her mother. Linghu Lan tried to put on a kind smile.

There's really so little we can do in the face of the deceased.

She carefully put away her documents, then turned and handed them to Lu Li: "Go outside and bring the food up."

Lu Li nodded and quickly came in from outside, carrying a bunch of various kinds of food upstairs.

Both father and daughter were stunned.

It contains all kinds of fresh fruits, vegetables, and snacks.

This is something that would be extremely simple in ordinary times, but in the post-apocalyptic world, it would be an absolute luxury.

After Linghu Lan and Lu Li left.

The two of them were still so surprised by what they saw that they couldn't close their mouths.

The little girl opened a bag of chocolates and ate them with relish. It wasn't the brand she usually ate, but the taste was surprisingly good.

Since it tastes so good, let's not expose those two for lying!

Her gaze fell upon the television, where the presenter was broadcasting the latest zombie statistics.

A red light flashed in the little girl's eyes and quickly disappeared. She pouted and muttered angrily, "Lying again? Do you think we're stupid?!"

Yes!

She was the only one in the family to awaken superpowers. Her mother did not survive and died in the quarantine zone. Her father did not successfully evolve and was just an ordinary person with a slightly stronger physique.

Her awakened superpower has no combat ability whatsoever; it can only see through a person's truths and lies through their gaze.

This superpower would be an incredible tool for reading minds in ordinary times.

In a post-apocalyptic world, however, it would be extremely useless.

However, it can't be considered completely useless.

At least those she has seen with her powers are as if they are locked into her brain; no matter how far away they are, she can sense their location.

If there's no food next time, I'll definitely have to go back to them.

In the kitchen, her father excitedly called out, "Yoona, today Daddy will make you sweet and sour pork ribs."

There was actually a plate of ready-made sweet and sour pork ribs in that package, which was really amazing.

The man couldn't help but shed tears, tears of joy mixed with bitterness.

When will this end times end?
