At six o'clock in the evening, the sun sets in the west.

There is no cold wind and drizzle in the south of the city, only the lazy afterglow of the sunset.

Knowing that Su Xia had brought back more than a dozen orphans, the two brothers, Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu, stopped what they were doing and walked out of the pharmacy one after another.

On the old street outside the shop, the children got out of the car one by one, looking at everything with curiosity and nervousness.

Two children, who were too tired, fell asleep in the warm compartment and were woken up by their companions around them and also got out of the car.

"Are these kids?" Su Jianshe already knew about the tragedy that happened in the east of the city.

"It's them." Susha replied.

"This accident has a lot to do with me."

Su Jianshe blamed himself very much, that Wang Hong was his subordinate, but he didn't know anything about what happened.

If Su Xia hadn't found out, he would still be kept in the dark.

"How did Wang Hong sit in that position?" Su Xia asked him.

"I owe a favor before, and then in order to repay the favor, I got this person up......"

There is nothing to hide, Su Jianshe replied truthfully, Wang Hong is indeed in a relationship, and he has very little real talent.

This city is composed of a huge network of relationships, even people like Su Jianshe are inevitably vulgar, just a small node on the network.

Even he himself had relied on relationships before and owed a lot of favors to him before he slowly sat in today's position.

"I pay for the growth of these children." Su Jianshe decided to take due responsibility, "I will let them complete the construction progress of the school as soon as possible." ”

"Okay."

"Another ......"

Su Jianshe paused, as if thinking of something, glanced at the direction of the school in the distance, and said, "I may be able to take down the two pieces of land around the school." ”

"Is that true?" Susha looked at him.

"Well, the owners of those two pieces of land have something to do with me, and they can be acquired at a low price."

"Then there's Mr. Lausu."

"It should."

If you can take the surrounding two plots of land, the scale of the school can be further expanded, which will have many benefits for future development.

Because of today's incident, Su Jianshe has raised the priority of the construction of the school to the highest, and the construction resources of the entire city are prioritized to be supplied here.

After the expansion, the classrooms, staff dormitories, student dormitories, canteens, playgrounds, gymnasiums and other functional buildings inside the school can all be satisfied.

In the past, there was not enough land, so it was planned to build classrooms and dormitories.

In the future, when classes officially start, Su Xia will most likely have the title of "principal".

Subsequently, he found Boss Zhao of the restaurant and talked about the problem of contracting the canteen in the future.

Boss Zhao's eyes were full of light, his face was ruddy, and he said with a smile: "No problem, the cafeteria will be handed over to me, no matter how many students there are, it will be no problem!" ”

"Well, funding is not a problem, many children are malnourished, I hope Boss Zhao can reasonably plan his daily diet."

"Don't worry!"

Boss Zhao patted his chest and promised: "Master Su has a hundred hearts, I will go to a special children's nutritionist tomorrow for advice, and ensure that these children will eat for nothing!" ”

"Okay."

Over the years, the food in the pharmacy has been provided by Boss Zhao, and the quality and taste of the food are good, so Su Xia has given priority to him.

It's better to find an acquaintance than a stranger.

"Boss Zhao, is there enough room upstairs in the restaurant?" Susha asked.

"This ......"

Boss Zhao looked at the more than ten skinny children and was a little worried.

The room upstairs of the restaurant, excluding himself and the staff, and excluding the three Su Xia brothers, there are only two rooms left.

When he told the truth, Su Xia thought for a while and said, "It's okay, just transform it into a temporary dormitory, these children only need a shelter from the wind and rain now, and they don't need to be too good." ”

Subsequently, Su Xia found Su Jianshe again and asked him for six staff beds with bunk beds.

There were many such beds in the warehouse at the construction site of Su Jianjian, so he immediately agreed and asked his men to drive to the warehouse to transport the beds.

At around seven o'clock in the evening, all the things that Su Xia needed temporarily arrived.

The group worked together to clean up two rooms, each with three bunk beds for six children to live in temporarily.

The beds are warm and comfortable, and the rooms are elegantly decorated with 24-hour heating, a treatment that the children have never enjoyed before.

Said it was a temporary room, but it was much better than their tin house in the slums.

On the other side of the slum there are many low-slung tin huts, dirty and rusty on the outside, and the windows are plain plastic sheeting.

In winter, the cold wind pours in, and in summer, it is directly exposed to the sun, and the temperature in the room can exceed forty or fifty degrees, and it is difficult to imagine how ordinary people can live in it.

"Woo ......"

There was a little girl wiping her tears, but the tears still couldn't stop falling, splashing white water on the clean ground.

Lan Bafu touched her head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Mommy, Mommy...... I think they ...... Can they live in such a good house in heaven? ”

"Yes, sure."

Lan Bafu nodded seriously.

He can be considered a materialist, but at times like these, he is willing to say things against his will.

After packing up, everyone went back to the first floor and began the day's dinner.

This dinner, Boss Zhao did it very carefully.

If you don't have enough food for a long time, and suddenly eat too much and too well, it will lead to gastrointestinal problems.

Boss Zhao has made a lot of improvements to the meals for these children, trying to reduce oil and salt as much as possible, which is delicate enough and can make them full.

During the meal, Su Jianshe mentioned the matter of Four Seasons Rice: "That Wang Yongqiang seems to be very aimed at Master Su. ”

"Well, he's always been hostile to me."

"Master Su wants me to delay his project?"

"It doesn't have to be that way." Su Xia shook his head, "The money that should be earned still has to be earned, Wang Yongqiang is willing to send the money to the door, and Mr. Su will accept it." ”

"Master Su has courage!"

Su Jianshe took a sip of tea and praised it sincerely.

Now everyone knows that Wang Yongqiang built the school in order to compete with Su Xia on the same stage.

And Su Xia was not afraid at all, even if the other party had a fifth-order pharmacist, he did not show any intention of retreating, and he would not even make a stumbling block in secret, everything was clear.

Su Jianshe asked himself, if it were him, he might try his best to delay Wang Yongqiang's project.

Su Xia's spirit and self-confidence are not comparable to ordinary people.

At the same time, Su Jianshe also had the same doubts in his heart as Chai An - after being in contact with Su Xia for a long time, he always felt that people like Su Xia were unlikely to betray their teachers.

There should be a hidden secret in this, and it is not as simple as advertised.

Su Jianshe didn't look for boredom and didn't take the initiative to ask.

After dinner, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening.

The street lights on both sides of the street have long been lit, and the employees of the engineering team have gone home, without the deafening sound of construction, only scaffolding, wooden gangplanks and other building materials remain, and this old street is a lot quieter.

"Let's go wash up and get some rest."

Today, all day long, exhaustion and pain have been haunting these children, like lingering demons.

Let them get a good night's sleep, maybe it will relieve a lot.

Su Xia returned to the pharmacy and sorted out the draft textbooks she had written during this time.

During this period, he sent nanobots to the Zero Tavern, and got good news - Fan Lu and the others had not left yet.

At the Zero Tavern, Yi told Susha's nanobot everything: "Fan Lu's private actions led to the battle between him and Mercer, which almost caused the relationship between the tavern and the automaton to get out of control, and now is the critical moment of negotiation, and the headquarters is very dissatisfied with him and asks him to stop all personal actions." ”

[With Fan Lu's character, will he listen to the words of the headquarters? 】

Su Xia manipulated the nanobots to form such a line of words.

Fan Lu was an arrogant and arrogant person, and he was also one of the rare fifth-level creatures on this planet, and the contract he signed with the tavern was definitely different from the contract of ordinary members.

Even a tavern can't restrain him too much.

"He really won't listen, just superficially cooperate." Yi explained, "He has collected all day's data today, compiled the information you appeared in the southern city, and is applying to the headquarters for action. ”

[News of my haunting in the south? It's just chasing after the wind and shadows, it's all fake]

Ever since Daddy's team left Coral City, news of masked monsters has been appearing in several cities to the south.

Some people claimed to have seen the metal mask, others took blurry photos, and the surveillance cameras in front of a hotel even captured a video.

But the person in the video was too fast, dressed in a black robe and wearing a metal mask, and it was impossible to determine if it was the masked monster himself.

Su Xia knew that it was his father who was covering for him so that he could do things in Coral City.

In fact, in addition to the Daddy team, there are others who are posing as masked monsters.

After all, the bounty on the name of the masked monster has broken through the sky, and you can get a large bounty for providing useful information.

"Last night, and this morning, the city defense forces of Seahorse City in the south caught two teams pretending to be you, both to cheat money." Yi Yi shared the latest news he received.

Some people pretend, some people shoot, and almost a complete industrial chain has been formed.

During this time, millions of bounties were actually taken away by the people who provided the information.

Coupled with the chaos of the daddy team, there is more and more news about the mask monster in the south, and it is not clear whether it is true or false.

[Will Fan Lu's application for action be approved? 】

"I guess it will, it should be soon."

[Notify me when the time comes]

"Mask, are you really sure to intercept it?"

[Ninety percent sure]

"Then I'll be relieved." Yi Yi exhaled, "After getting rid of him, remember to come back and wake up Ah Mo and Shen Yu's little girl." ”

He knows a little about Su Xia, and what Su Xia said is "ninety percent sure", which is almost equivalent to absolute certainty.

As long as Fan Lu left the city limits, he would definitely die.

Yi Yi returned to the back of the bar, picked up the cocktail, and was about to pour himself a glass, when he suddenly felt that the weight was wrong: "Strange, why is there less wine in it?" ”

During this time, it seems that someone has been stealing his wine.

He had already checked the surveillance, but the surveillance footage was normal, as if the wine inside had disappeared silently.

It's not just weird.

Recently, there are traces of many materials in the underground database, but there is no borrowing record in the system.

Even if Fan Lu and others want to check the information, they must follow the tavern process, and it is impossible not to make even a little record.

"Mask, is it hidden somewhere in the tavern?" Yi Yi suddenly thought of this, so he asked.

[It's not me, it's another guest]

"What?"

[You should see it later, it's not the time yet]

"So mysterious?"

[Hmm]

Su Xia knew very well in his heart that the strange problems in the tavern should have been caused by the Zerg Queen.

Yi still didn't know that there was such an uninvited guest in his tavern.

After getting Su Xia's prompt, Yi Yi felt a lot more relieved.

Judging by the meaning of Su Xia's words, the mysterious guest should be a friend and not an enemy, at least not yet.

After a while, Yuan Hua took the elevator up from the ground, walked to the bar and said, "Boss Yi, have a glass of strong wine." ”

"Good!"

Yi Yi turned around, took out a bottle of high wine from the wine cabinet behind him, and began to concoct it.

Yuan Hua looked around, then lowered his voice and asked, "Boss Yi, you tell me the truth, do you have a connection with the face?" ”

"Nope." Yi Muran shook his head.

"Really?"

"When did I, Yiyi, deceive someone?"

"Alas...... Oh well......"

Yuan Hua lowered his head and sighed, and continued: "I heard that the mask appeared in the southern city, and now there are people hunting him everywhere, and I don't know if he can hold it. ”

"Who did you listen to?" Yi asked.

"Fan Lu."

"Oh, he just said it on purpose to break through your inner defenses, don't care about what he says."

Yiyi poured a glass of wine, put it on the bar, and pushed it to Yuan Hua.

The two were chatting when a cold snort suddenly came from the passage behind them.

Fan Lu, with a few team members, happened to take another elevator to the basement floor, and as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he heard Yiyi's words.

"Yiyi, you've only learned how to bartend after studying in the Coral City branch for so many years?" Fan Lu looked at Yi Yi indifferently.

"Minister Fan, you have studied at the headquarters for so many years, and you have only learned to be beaten?"

Yi Yi was not afraid at all, and calmly replied.

His words were quite sharp, and he directly mentioned the fiasco of Fan Lu's battle against Mercer.

At that time, everyone was watching, and everyone was watching...... Before Mercer could exert any force, the furnace fell.

Inside the tavern, no one dared to mention this matter to Fan Lu in person, for fear of touching the mold, and Yi Yi was the first to mention it.

Sure enough, Fan Lu's face sank, and he said coldly: "Stay in the tavern, don't let me see you walk out of the tavern door!" ”

As long as Yi Yi dared to leave the tavern, he dared to do it, which was an undisguised threat.

Inside the tavern, Fan Lu didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

Last time, he had already made an exception for Sanyu underground, but he had a special identity and could suppress this matter for the time being.

Hearing this threat, Yi Yi's face did not change, shook the cocktail, and said indifferently: "I know, it's not bad to stay in the tavern all the time, after all, there is food and drink here...... Minister Fan, is this going out? ”

"Humph!"

Fan Lu didn't answer, turned around and led people away.

Behind him, the rest of the people were carrying a black equipment box, apparently heading out for a long time.

Apparently, the headquarters approved their application for action.

There was no need for Yi Yi to remind him, Su Xia had already seen all this through the nanobots.

"Ding—"

Fan Lu and his party took the elevator to the first floor above ground.

Their car had parked in front of the tavern, intending to drive to Seahorse City in the south.

After walking out of the gate, one of them looked up at the night sky, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Tonight is a starry night, it's a good day to travel, and we may have a lot to gain from this trip." ”
