Chapter 395: Request for Bail
Yao Tao left the prison, and in the end Wen Xiaoquan did not ask her to ask Wen Jiming for help.
Yao Tao didn't want to go find Wen Jiming either. Anyway, she had already informed Yang Lianhai, and Yang Lianhai would not really send Wen Xiaoquan to the low-level machinery factory.
Just lock her up first.
On the other hand, Yang Lianhai sent people to find Wen Xiaoquan's mother Lin Shuixiang every day to urge her to pay the bail.
Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng rented two beds on the bottom floor of the Ark, and they and Lu Jiajia had to squeeze into the two beds.
Lu Jiajia doesn't like this environment and keeps asking to sleep alone.
In the end, Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng had to squeeze into one bed, leaving the other bed empty for Lu Jiajia.
Even so, Lu Jiajia was still not satisfied.
He keeps asking to eat this and that every day.
Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng didn't have any supplies on them, and Lin Shuixiang's arm was injured, so he couldn't work at all.
Lu Jiancheng went out to look for work for a few days, but he only worked for half a day before running back.
Either the work is too tiring or the income is too low.
That day, the people sent by Yang Lianhai went to Lin Shuixiang to urge him to pay the bail. Lu Jiancheng happened to be there and he got angry.
"Your security team simply wants to drain the blood of us survivors! Who can afford such a high bail?" Lu Jiancheng shouted at the top of his voice, attracting the attention of many people around him.
The person Yang Lianhai sent said coldly, "Of course the bail has to be high. Otherwise, the cost of crime is too low and everyone wants to steal."
As soon as the topic of stealing was mentioned, the looks of the people around them when they looked at Lu Jiancheng and his family suddenly changed.
The environment here where you rent a bed is already messy, and losing things is a common occurrence.
Usually the person who lost something never catches the thief.
Now they looked at Lu Jiancheng and his family as if they were thieves.
Lu Jiancheng didn't realize this. He was still furious at the people sent by Yang Lianhai. "I repeat, we won't pay bail. Do whatever you want with us. Don't even think about trying to cheat us out of a single Doomsday Coin!"
The person Yang Lianhai sent had a blank expression on his face. "If you don't pay the bail, your daughter will be sent to work in the machinery factory on the bottom floor of the Ark. She may never come back."
"Who's going to take care of her?" Lu Jiancheng said irritably. "We can't even take care of ourselves, so who's going to take care of her?"
"That's right, who cares about her?" Lu Jiajia repeated his father's words, "My sister is a big fool. It would be better if she didn't come back. I could still eat her share of the meal."
As he spoke, he threw himself on Lin Shuixiang and acted coquettishly, "Mom, you don't want my sister to come back, do you?"
Lin Shuixiang responded vaguely.
"I understand." Yang Lianhai's men took out a document and handed it to Lin Shuixiang. "As long as you sign this, the security team will not come to you to ask for bail again."
Lin Shuixiang took it, but before she could get the pen, Lu Jiancheng snatched it away and signed his name on her behalf.
"Both parties must sign, otherwise it won't count." Yang Lianhai's people reminded.
So Lin Shuixiang also signed his name.
Lu Jiancheng was still worried and kept asking, "So you won't come to us for money again, right?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen again." Yang Lianhai's men went back.
Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng both breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, just don't push them for money.
The three of them only had half a bowl of instant noodles and a piece of dried meat weighing three or two taels left for dinner.
Lin Shuixiang boiled half a block of instant noodles in water, cut the dried meat into small pieces and put them in the soup.
It looks like a big pot of food, but in fact the pot is full of soup.
Not long after dinner, Lu Jiajia felt hungry and kept clamoring for food.
No matter how Lin Shuixiang coaxed him, it was useless.
The survivors who were renting beds around them were unhappy and scolded, "What are you making such a fuss about? It's already late, can't you let us sleep?"
Lin Shuixiang hated to see others scolding her son the most, and she retorted on the spot, "Children are ignorant, but are you adults also ignorant? The child is hungry and can't sleep, and you don't let him make a fuss?"
The survivors around them had long disliked their family and began to criticize them, saying, "You adults are incompetent. You're lazy and don't work at home every day. If you don't starve, who will you starve? It won't be much if you starve to death!"
Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng couldn't argue with so many people, so they could only shut up angrily.
Lu Jiajia made a fuss for another hour and then fell asleep crying.
Lin Shuixiang and Lu Jiancheng discussed, "Why don't you find a team to join tomorrow? You can get some meat when you go hunting."
Lu Jiancheng had no choice but to agree.
The next day he went to the team mission hall. When he looked up, he saw Wen Jiming's name written in fifth place on the team credibility list on the big screen.
Lu Jiancheng's eyes rolled and he immediately had an idea.
