Facing his invitation, Jiang Ning decisively refused, "No, we are just an unarmed crowd."

Ling Ju looked past her and fell on Huo Yishen, "What about you? If I guessed correctly, you should be from the military and police. Now the country is in trouble and it is the time when you are needed. Would you consider joining?"

Doudou was surprised and hugged his arm subconsciously, "Brother."

Huo Yishen comforted his sister and raised his head and said, "I retired due to injury. Both my parents died at home, and I have a young sister to take care of."

"Sorry." Ling Ju felt a little sorry, "If you change your mind, you can come to the police station to find me at any time."

Get in the car and leave.

It's still early, and everyone goes to the department store.

Along the way, Huo Yi was solemn and silent. Although he was usually taciturn, Jiang Ning could sense that he seemed a little depressed.

Could it be that Ling Ju's words touched him?

Yes, the military and police have a spirit of sacrifice and dedication, and there is absolutely no problem with his skills. Retiring due to injury is just a cover.

He must have a deeper secret and was forced to make the decision to retire, but the responsibility and mission as a military and police officer were tormenting him.

People always have to make choices. How can they not let down Tathagata and you?

Doudou held her brother's hand, and a smile appeared in her eyes unconsciously.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but lower her head, and Coke happened to raise her head, and her pupils reflected her complete shadow.

Zhang Chao and Lu Yu were playing tricks in the front, and Zheng Weili followed behind to give the two of them some time to relax.

The department store was crowded, so for safety reasons, Jiang Ning put the dog in her backpack and walked into the bustling trade market. This was her first time here, and Zhang Chao and others had been here several times, so they were familiar with the place

and strolled around. Although it was extremely cold, it was obviously much busier than when she was in Hongyan. There were people coming and going everywhere, but there were more people watching than transactions. The goods on display were varied, but the stall owners' needs were very consistent: food, charcoal, or medicine. They came every day, but left empty-handed every day. Jiang Ning couldn't say what she wanted, so she could only walk and look, and then stop at a stall. The stall owner is a veterinarian who opened a pet clinic before the natural disaster. The stall is full of pet supplies or toys, deworming medicine, hair softener, dog hair cleaner, nail clippers, etc. If it was before the natural disaster, it would definitely be a huge profit, but now no one is interested. Jiang Ning didn't find a dog before, so naturally she didn't prepare these things. Now she can't help but be tempted when she sees them. She picked out dog chew sticks, chew balls, dog leashes, dog hair cleaners, and deworming medicine, making sure they were not expired and unopened before buying them. Jiang Ning didn't feel bad about buying things for the dog. She took out everything she might need. "How much do you want?" There were a lot of things. There were several bottles of insecticide alone. It would have cost thousands of dollars before the end of the world. But now, not to mention pets, even people can't survive. The boss hasn't made any sales in more than a month since the opening of the store. He was a little excited and held up three fingers. Just give three kilograms of rice. Three kilograms of rice may be a lot for others, but it is not a problem for Jiang Ning. She didn't rush to agree, but pretended to be embarrassed. The boss was afraid that she would not agree, so he lowered the price. "Two kilograms, it can't be any less. We have children to raise at home." The man was skinny, with deep sunken eyes, and looked shabby. Seeing Zheng Weili and others walking forward, Jiang Ning spoke up, "Two catties of refined rice or three catties of broken rice, which one do you want?" The man was stunned for a moment, then excitedly said, "Three catties of broken rice." Jiang Ning took out three catties of broken rice from the space and put it in a black plastic bag while taking out his bag. The man moved quickly, took it and quickly stuffed it into his thick clothes, fearing that he would be seen and in danger. He gave the things to Jiang Ning, while telling her how to use the insecticide, he packed up the stall and planned to go home. When she got up to leave, Jiang Ning found Huo Yishen not far away. Doudou was holding the hair rope, and he was holding Doudou's hand, looking in her direction from time to time. "Sister." Doudou had a hard time choosing, "Which one looks good?" The color her brother chose for her was ugly and didn't look good on her. Children like brightly colored ones, red, pink, orange, and blue. Look at what Huo Yishen has chosen, black, white, and gray... er, no wonder Doudou doesn't like it. Jiang Ning lowered her head to help Doudou choose. Who knew that the vendor was flexible? Seeing the man standing behind the woman in a protective manner, he suddenly had an idea and sneaked up to ask, "Girl, do you want a small umbrella?" Small umbrella? Jiang Ning was a little confused and didn't react for a while. The vendor took one out of his pocket mysteriously and shook it in front of Jiang Ning, "Genuine, quality is absolutely guaranteed." Damn... It turned out to be this, how did he know she needed it! "The world is not good now. It's hard enough for you two to raise a child. If you get pregnant again, it will be fatal. Not to mention whether the child can be born, even your life may be in danger." The vendor pushed hard, "Girl, buy some to keep at home. You can use it repeatedly. I guarantee it's worth the money." Jiang Ning dug her toes on the ground in embarrassment, but she thought that there was space to store 3,000 of them. She didn't need them anyway, and she was wrapped from head to toe with only her eyes exposed, so there was no shame, so she asked curiously, "How much?" Her attention was diverted, and she seemed to have forgotten that Huo Yishen was standing behind her. The vendor stretched out a finger, "Five catties of refined rice or refined flour." Five catties of rice or flour in exchange for a small umbrella? Ah... she was going to get rich! Of course, she didn't plan to sell it now. Everyone who came here was trying to survive. It was not easy to sell it. When the stock was used up in the future, she would trade it with rich people, exchanging it for gold, jade, antiques, or something she didn't have. Seeing her frown, the vendor thought she thought it was too expensive, so he used his eloquence, "Sister, I see you don't need to eat, so you can't delay your entertainment. This is brand new and unopened. I need four and a half kilograms of food to buy it. I can't sell it at a loss, right? If you think it's expensive, I have second-hand ones here. It only takes two kilograms of food. The quality is durable, and there is no problem. If you don't believe it, you can check it on the spot. By the way, what size do you want?"

Second-hand? Jiang Ning was shocked and his stomach was churning. The vendor

was embarrassed and unaware of it. He glanced at Huo Yishen, "Brother, what are you talking about?"

Ah... Jiang Ning, who was a bit rude, realized it later and turned his head to look at him subconsciously. I don't

know if Huo Yishen had a high level of cultivation or simply didn't understand. His deep eyes were calm and calm, "No need, thank you."

Jiang Ning, who was socially dead, "..."

Without saying a word, he turned around and ran away.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't go. The price can be negotiated. Don't you want the hair tie?"

Doudou was confused, "Brother, my hair tie."

"There are more beautiful ones behind."

"What's wrong with sister?" Doudou looked up and asked his brother, "Is she mad at me?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Huo Yi thought deeply, "She must be shy."

It's good that she is not mad at her. Doudou quickly chased after her, "Sister, wait for me."
