Chapter 38: Father and Son
After waking up, Lu Letian and the others felt very strange, Qin Qin was still sunny last night, why did she pout early this morning, looking aggrieved like an angry little daughter-in-law. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhao Qi thought about asking Qin Qin if she wanted to learn sanda with her before getting up, but when she looked at this gloomy atmosphere, she immediately dispelled her thoughts. Obediently, look at her state, she is absolutely fist and fist crit, and she doesn't want to practice fighting with a powder pot.
Although Qin Qin was depressed by the AI, she didn't drop the chain, and put the water early for her companions to use. After a rather silent breakfast, Zhou Beichen announced today's mission, going to a nearby small restaurant to collect gas canisters, and checking where there was bedding on the way, they needed a few quilts to survive the coming winter.
The original owner of this apartment probably did not plan to live in the near future and did not have children, so there was only a standard 1.8 meter large bed in both rooms, and no bedding was prepared. The three girls are slender and don't mind sleeping together, Qin Qin, who is afraid of the cold, lies in the middle, and the two quilts on the left and right sides are overlapped and covered with absolutely warmth. Although the three big men were awkward to squeeze into one bed, they could sleep completely, but each of them could only cover a velvet blanket.
It's already cold, and there is no heating or air conditioning in the house. In order not to wake up from the cold, they had to sleep every night in tights, cover them with coats over the blankets, and bend over their legs to twist themselves into a comma to prevent their calves and feet from being exposed. If you accidentally drop your coat on the ground when you turn over, you can only shrink up in the middle of the night and freeze into a cold bird.
After eating breakfast, Qin Qin's mood eased a lot, and she didn't look like a melancholy poet anymore. She led the team out of the door, and the way downstairs was majestic and high-spirited, probably the depression was over. Walking to the first floor, Qin Qin had just opened the door of the apartment building, and a little boy who didn't look more than ten years old ran up to her and said pitifully, "Sister, can you give me something to eat?" I've been hungry all day. ”
Qin Qin was taken aback, what is the situation, why is it blocked the door to eat. She looked at the little boy carefully, the clothes he was wearing were quite delicate, but they looked dirty, and it was estimated that he hadn't changed them for a few days. The boy's little face and hands were also dusty, and half of his nose hung on his mouth, looking a little sloppy. "What about your parents?" Qin Qin asked softly, secretly thinking in her heart that this child was not taking care of her, and she was so cold that her nose was runny.
The little boy sniffled and said angrily, "I came here by myself." Sister, just give me something to eat, I'm so hungry. After that, the little boy who called himself Stone also patted his stomach with his little hand, indicating that his stomach was really hungry.
Zhou Beichen walked out of Qin Qin with the rest of the team, closed the door of the apartment building casually, and looked at the boy with a frown. To tell the truth, he had seen a lot of this scene before, all kinds of pretending to be pitiful and sympathetic, and his mouth was much sweeter than this boy's, and he didn't run up to just know what he wanted to eat. Seeing Qin Qin's somewhat unbearable expression, Zhou Beichen patiently asked the boy: "There are so many zombies outside, you can't run by yourself." Where are your parents, don't you say we're leaving? ”
The little boy panicked, and hesitantly turned his head to look to the left. Qin Qin looked over with his gaze, and a man walked out from behind the flowers on the side of the building with an embarrassed face, scratched his head and ran forward, sneering and said, "I'm sorry, the child is not sensible, and he is hungry and running around, hehe." ”
The man who ran out is not bad looking, but he is slightly frivolous and has a greasy temperament. Although the clothes he was wearing were a little dirty, they were neatly tied, and he was probably between 35 and 40 years old. Qin Qin's first impression of this man was very bad, and when she had time to clean herself up, she didn't know how to wipe her child's nose? So she deliberately pretended to be confused, and said, "Since you are here, then bring the child back." Look at it in the future, don't let him run around, how dangerous it is now. ”
The man probably didn't expect Qin Qin to send him away so simply, he was a little stunned for a while, and after a while, he didn't react until Qin Qin turned around to leave, and hurriedly shouted: "Hey, that, don't go." You see that the children are hungry like this, can't you give them something to eat? ”
Qin Qin turned around and naturally asked, "Did you make a mistake?" You're his father, and of course you're in charge of his food and drink. Can't you go out and find something for him to eat when he's hungry? ”
The man was so frightened that he shook his head and said, "I don't go out, there are man-eating monsters everywhere outside, and if you touch it casually, you will die." ”
Qin Qin was curious: "Then how did you come here?" ”
The man replied angrily: "I live in a nearby community, and yesterday a soldier came to us and shouted that there is a base set up by the army. I saw that they had killed all the zombies, which was quite powerful, so I brought the children with them. I didn't expect to come over and find out that if I didn't hand over the supplies, I could only squeeze the basement with people, and I didn't care about food! ”
Qin Qin rolled her eyes. Although her team was asked for a lot of supplies by the base, she didn't think that the base should support the rescued people in vain, and no one owed anyone, and it was enough for the army to establish a base to give her people a stable rear. She asked, "What about the child's mother?" ”
The man showed an expression that could not bear to recall, sighed and said, "Alas, she is really miserable." We don't usually eat at home, so we don't have any food at home, and the only snacks we have are eaten on the first day. When he got up early yesterday, Shi kept shouting that he was hungry, and his mother couldn't bear it, so she said that she would go out and find him something to eat. I didn't stop her, seeing that she was pounced on by zombies before she could get out of the community. ”
Qin Qin looked at this man who was still pretending to be pitiful and acting in a bitter love scene, and couldn't wait to rush up and give him two mouths. "His mother can go out and fight hard for him, and you actually watch the child being knocked down by zombies and be indifferent? Don't you even know how to go out and save her? Are you still a man? Qin Qin asked the man angrily.
The man blushed when he was said, and retorted with a stiff neck: "I, what's the use of me going out?" At that time, she was bitten by zombies several times, don't think I don't know, if you are bitten by zombies, you will become a zombie. If I rush out and die, who will take care of the stones in the future? ”
Qin Qin was full of anger and had no place to vent, gritted his teeth and said, "You haven't taken care of the stone yet, have you?" ”
The man didn't defend himself, so he simply broke the jar and broke it, hugged his son and said, "What are you talking about so many useless things?" You see that the children are hungry like this, so you can't give them something to eat? Why is your heart so ruthless at a young age? I saw it yesterday, you guys are taking big bags and small bags home, what's wrong with giving us so much to eat? ”
When Qin Qin heard this, he didn't know how to reason with this bastard father who was a robber logic. Zhou Beichen saw that Qin Qin was so angry that he hurriedly patted her on the shoulder, signaled her to rest and stop talking, and then walked up to the man and asked, "You have hands and feet, why can't you go out and find food?" No matter how many things we get back, it's all our own desperate gains, what does it have to do with you? ”
When the man saw Qin Qin and the others changed to a tougher boy who came out to talk to him, he immediately changed his attitude, and he didn't spill it off, and continued to say pitifully: "Little classmate, it's not like I don't want to go out." But the neighborhood has been looted, I have to go to a farther place and there is no car, where can I walk, how dangerous is the road? ”
Zhou Beichen pretended to be good-natured and smiled gently, and said, "Then you can go with us, we don't mind taking you." When you come back, you will also be given a share of the supplies you harvested today. ”
The man was dumbfounded, and stammered in defense: "Well, it's going to take a day out, and the stones will definitely starve." Yes, the child can't stand being hungry, he's been hungry all day, and he can't wait today. You can give me something to eat, and you don't have to bother to bring mine. ”
Zhou Beichen was not in a hurry, and continued to tease him slowly: "Then let's leave the food for the stones, can you go out with us to find supplies?" How can you support yourself and your children if you don't go out? ”
The man was speechless, he made all kinds of excuses that he didn't want to go out and face the zombies, who wanted to follow the rotten and kind man opposite. He rolled his eyes and continued to shirk: "That's not good, the stone takes the food by himself, what if he is robbed, I have to stay to protect him." ”
Qin Qin looked at all this coldly, and couldn't help but speak: "You want to stay and grab the stones to eat." ”
The man sneered, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, the stone is my son, how can I rob him of food." ”
Zhou Beichen asked: "Then you mean that you just want to order something for the stone to eat?" ”
The man nodded hurriedly: "Mmmmmmmm, I just don't want to watch the stone starving." ”
"Okay." Zhou Beichen answered, took out a bag of biscuits from his backpack, squatted down and unpacked it, and took out a piece and stretched it out to the side of the stone's mouth. "Let's eat."
The stone is a bit silly. At the man's motion, Stone stretched out his small hand to snatch the packet of biscuits. Zhou Beichen immediately stood up and said to the stone very seriously: "If you want to eat, eat it right away here." If you're not hungry, go back with your father. ”
The man was so angry by Zhou Beichen's method that he couldn't say anything, looking at the hungry stone, he could only wave his hand to let him eat quickly. The stone cheered, obediently took the biscuits, and devoured them. The man looked at the stone and ate the biscuits, and his Adam's apple kept moving up and down, but unfortunately he was stared at by the six people on the other side, and he really didn't dare to grab something and leave.
Qin Qin snickered in her heart, Beichen is really bad. He knew that this man was also hungry enough, and he didn't take the bag of biscuits away with the stone, but had to feed them one by one. But that's fine, you can't get used to dealing with this kind of man who doesn't seek improvement and only relies on other people's alms. Even his own frail girls dare to go out to fight zombies, why should he be afraid. The child's mother walked out bravely, and although she died in the end, she was a hundred times stronger than this cowardly man. Poor and obedient stone follows such a father, and he doesn't know what he will learn in the future.
