1167: First Customer
When Hong Lei walked downstairs with Da Hu, his wife Jiang Qun, and Hong Lei's daughter, he was somewhat surprised to find that Xu Si Xu, the woman who had been told to wait outside the School in the RV, had driven the RV over.
In the pouring rain, this saved Da Hu from the awkwardness of getting drenched.
After all, the truck only had the driver's seat and passenger seat.
Since Hong Lei was bringing his wife and Hong Lei's daughter, he naturally couldn't let Da Hu squeeze in.
After getting into the RV with his wife and Hong Lei's daughter, Hong Lei had Da Hu drive the truck following behind the RV.
The truck carried a Big Mouth Flower worth ten energy points!
This guy naturally had to be transported back to the villa as well.
Otherwise, why would Hong Lei go through so much trouble to find a truck to plant the Big Mouth Flower?
Although the Big Mouth Flower was still raising its head, continuously chewing the monster in its mouth like a toothless Old man, and hadn't swallowed this wave of food even after five or six minutes, its power was undeniable!
"Where is your home?" In the RV, Hong Lei drove towards the area outside the School, with Da Hu following behind.
During this process, he didn't forget to ask Xu Si Xu in the back.
"Hong Ge, I want to follow you!" Xu Si Xu seemed to have made up her mind, and proactively spoke when facing Hong Lei's question.
This sentence made Hong Lei's expression turn strange.
His wife Jiang Qun in the passenger seat immediately turned her head to look, her dangerous gaze making Hong Lei feel like he was sitting on pins and needles!
"Damn it, I'm kindly taking you home, do you think I don't have a home?" Hong Lei's voice carried a hint of anger.
"Hong Ge, I'm serious!"
"I know, the World has become very dangerous now, whether it's Zombies or the monsters we saw before, the arrival of these things has completely thrown stable society into chaos!"
"If I don't attach myself to a strong person, my end will definitely be miserable!"
"Attach yourself to a strong person?" Hong Lei snorted coldly, a smile that didn't reach his eyes: "Then what makes you think I need your attachment?"
"What ability do you have?"
"Yeah, what ability do you have? Even if you call me Dad, I wouldn't be willing to take you as a subordinate."
Hong Yunyan came out of the RV's bathroom after showering, wearing cartoon pajamas, and had clearly heard the conversation between Xu Si Xu and Hong Lei.
"I..." Xu Si Xu was silent for a moment, her gaze falling on Hong Yunyan.
Then, thinking of something, she immediately turned to look at Hong Lei: "I can teach! Hong Ge, your Hong Lei's daughter should still be in her third year of high school, right? Before I came to County Number One Middle School, I taught at a university, and I can tutor your Hong Lei's daughter's schoolwork individually!"
This sentence made Hong Yunyan's expression stiffen in the car, the corners of her mouth twitching uncontrollably on her fair and delicate face.
She was uttering unspeakable greetings.
What made Hong Yunyan unable to calm down was her own mother's words from the passenger seat.
"Old Hong, I think Yunyan really needs a Teacher. If the World gets chaotic from now on, and this Child doesn't have a Teacher to educate her, I'm afraid she'll become more and more like you."
When Hong Lei first heard his wife Jiang Qun's words, they sounded a little off.
Upon closer listening, they still sounded a little off.
But he also understood his wife's meaning.
"Then you're not going home?" Hong Lei asked Xu Si Xu.
"My parents have already turned into Zombies. Before, I chose to go home because there was still money there, and I wanted to get the money to buy some supplies to get through this period, hoping the future would be better."
"But after experiencing what just happened at the School, I realized that I don't see the trend of the future getting better, and the savings at home are meaningless whether I get them or not."
"It's better to just follow Hong Ge, at least it'll be more stable."
Xu Si Xu didn't see the moment the Big Mouth Flower displayed its divine power, but when she drove the RV over, she saw the monster losing its life in its mouth!
From this, the power of the Big Mouth Flower was evident!
Then, connecting it to Hong Lei, she became even more certain that this was a reliable strong person!
"Then Yunyan's schoolwork will be left for you to arrange. If this Child is disobedient, just tell me."
Hong Lei finally made the decision.
"Dad!" Hong Yunyan held her head, her face full of pain.
She had truly tasted the suffering brought by the arrival of the apocalypse!
... ...
When Hong Lei and Da Hu drove away in the two vehicles, the area around County Number One Middle School soon welcomed several batches of Army units carrying heavy weapons!
The lights of the entire School also turned on in an instant.
In the bright environment, large numbers of Soldiers poured into the School.
The survivors were arranged to leave one by one, while the dozen or so surviving Soldiers reported the situation.
"A monster more terrifying than Zombies? Not spread by viruses?!"
"A monster that can swallow other monsters?"
The Second Battalion Commander, with two dark circles under his eyes, learned this information from the surviving Soldiers, his brows constantly furrowed and not relaxing.
He originally thought that eliminating the Zombies would basically quell these anomalies, but unexpectedly, it was wave after wave, and things were still evolving towards a worse situation!
Even though they had tried their best!
Organizing this information, the Second Battalion Commander rubbed his sore eyes, not daring to rest or delay, and quickly transmitted this information to the upper levels.
... ...
In a placement area.
A dozen or so Soldiers who survived at County Number One Middle School were receiving systematic and professional treatment here.
"Squad Leader, have we still not obtained the technique that person used to deal with the monster?"
On the hospital bed, a Soldier asked the Seventh Squad Leader on the adjacent bed, who had lost an arm.
His question carried a sense of melancholy.
On the bed on the other side, another Soldier also had a look of helplessness.
"How could someone share such a powerful technique so easily... Maybe they have their own difficulties."
Beneath the disappointed words of the two Soldiers, the Seventh Squad Leader looked at the ceiling above without saying a word.
"That person at least gave us a flower, a Sunflower. It should be to encourage us to look forward."
"Relax, without plants, we can at least still pick up a gun."
The Squad Leader said comfortingly, turning slightly, and in his quiet field of vision, a flower appeared.
It was that Sunflower.
"Squad Leader, this Sunflower, why is something missing from it?" The Soldier next to him suddenly asked.
His question also made the Squad Leader on the bed notice something, his gaze suddenly focusing on an area next to the Sunflower.
He saw that in the area that was originally empty, a remarkably conspicuous small black Sun had fallen!
With a sense of realization, A Man reached out to touch it.
"Ding ~ Congratulations, you have obtained 0.2 energy points. Continue to accumulate energy and exchange for powerful plants!"
