Chapter 63: The Price of Ignorance (part 2 of 2)

"The sheriff didn't eat a bite." Jin Meiqing cleaned up the coffee table and found that a spoonful of white porridge had not been touched, "Is it a bad taste?" ”

She scooped a spoonful of porridge, pursed her lips and tasted it, it was quite salty.

Then.

Stepmother Miqing heard a burst of footsteps in the house, and looked sideways to see that it was Lee Eun-hye, who had just finished washing, walking out.

She wiped her wet hair, wearing a light cotton nightgown dress with two small berries protruding.

Seeing that there was only one stepmother in the living room, a trace of imperceptible loneliness flashed in his eyes.

was just about to turn around, but heard his stepmother Meiqing remind.

"Sheriff, he just left."

"Before leaving, I tell you to pay attention to and take a good rest."

Lee Eun-hye shuddered.

Get a good rest....... The meaning of these words is obviously that he didn't intend to really let her go.

When I thought of the photos with the price clearly marked and the waiters under the school square, I couldn't help but blush slightly.

She gritted her silver teeth and muttered:

"Is there anything else he has to say......?"

Hearing her daughter Li Enhui's question, her stepmother, who has always been bad at lying, became a little erratic in her eyes, revealing a weak look.

Her fingers were unconsciously hooked together, and she was divided.

I can't just say that I asked her sheriff boyfriend to go out to find her husband for herself.

Although it was also Lee Eun-hye's father, she was somewhat selfish and took advantage of the relationship between Lee Eun-hye and her boyfriend.

There are many dangers outside, and it is extremely difficult to even protect oneself and survive, let alone go to more dangerous places to find people.

Lee Eun-hye, who has always been sensitive, saw the clue.

The stepmother's uncharacteristically silent caught her attention.

"What did you say to him?!" Lee Eun-hye asked sharply.

The stepmother was also stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect her daughter to suddenly attack.

Worried that Lee Eun-hye would misunderstand something, he hesitated for a moment and had to explain.

"I really didn't say anything to your sheriff boyfriend......"

"It's just that I asked him for one thing before he left."

Lee Eun-hye was dumbfounded, and a strong sense of bad premonition came to her heart.

"What did you ask him for?!"

"Favor...... Don't ask. Stepmother Meiqing perfunctory past, more and more empty.

Girls of this age are easy to fall in love, if Lee Eun-hye attaches great importance to her sheriff's boyfriend, even more than her father.

Once he found out what happened, he would definitely hate her to death.

After all, her husband is unlucky and uncertain outside.

And Li Enhui's boyfriend is still alive and well, so there is no need to take this risk.

In case her boyfriend never comes back, no matter what the truth is, Lee Eun Hui will definitely blame it on this matter.

The stepmother didn't dare to continue.

Li Enhui didn't give up, and asked directly: "Did you ask him to find my father?!" ”

"Ah......h Stepmother Meiqing was stunned, she never expected Li Enhui to guess it at a glance.

She almost burst into tears and quickly explained.

"I'm just going to stop by and look for it."

"I really didn't mean to hurt your sheriff's boyfriend."

"Don't take it to heart...... And your father is out there and really needs rescue. ”

"And now he's... He might still be alive..."

Lee Eun-hye felt her scalp tingle and her head buzzed.

She deeply understands what kind of person Zheng Xun is.

If you ask for him, you will have to pay the price.

And the ignorant stepmother, without knowing it, asked Zheng Xun to find her father.

That kind of equivalent exchange is almost inevitable.

When I think of those filthy things, my heart is simply numb.

And now she may have something even dirtier to face.

Even if Zheng Xun really finds his father, how should they face it.

"Did he grant your request?" Lee Eun-hye's tone softened, clinging to the last shred of hope.

Stepmother Meiqing was obviously stunned for a moment, and explained intermittently.

The sheriff agreed...... But he said. ”

"The next time he asks, I hope I won't refuse."

As soon as this remark came out.

Lee Eun-hye's pupils shrank suddenly, and she couldn't stop trembling.

It was like five thunderbolts, and the whole person froze in place, at a loss.

Stepmother Meiqing was afraid that Lee Eun-hye would be worried, so she hurriedly added and explained.

"It's okay, sheriff, he'll be fine."

"I just asked him to help by the way, and I didn't force him to find it."

Lee Eun-hye kept shaking her head.

She knew that her stepmother was completely in the dark, and she didn't realize how terrible Zheng Xun was.

Zheng Xun agreed to his stepmother Jin Meiqing's request, which means that the deal has begun.

"He's going to be fine...... It's that you may not be able to do what he asks. ”

"Request? As long as we can find your father, we can grant any request. Jin Meiqing explained urgently.

"We can give him the food stored in the villa, the car, and the basement."

"If he doesn't have enough, the Oaks Square in his name can also be given to him."

"No, he doesn't lack these things at all." Lee Eun-hye is now completely in a dilemma, and there is no way to explain the cause and effect of the whole thing to Kim Mi-ching.

She couldn't explain the price she had paid to get home.

Not to mention the secret about Zheng Xun in the transaction process.

The more you talk, the deeper the stepmom gets involved.

If you are not careful, you may even be killed by Zheng Xun.

She had seen Zheng Xun's terrible methods with her own eyes, and she was definitely not the kind of soft-hearted person.

If Zheng Xun didn't find any trace of her father, the deal would naturally not be established, but she would have lost her father forever.

In this extremely apocalyptic environment, even Zheng Xun can't be found, and the possibility of others helping to find it is very small.

Not to mention that she went out to look for it herself.

If Zheng Xun succeeds in finding her father, the deal is closed.

Then she still has her stepmother Jin Meiqing, and she must pay the corresponding price.

And that price, obviously, there is only one possibility.

Completely dedicated to the two of them.

Thinking of this, Lee Eun-hye shuddered.

.......

"I'm back."

When Zheng Xun first stepped into the apartment, it was completely dark.

He carried a bag of snacks, instant noodles, peanuts and happy fat house water in the store on the way back, and specially chose a bottle of low-alcohol cocktail drink.

Smack.

Turn on the lights in the house and kick off the leather shoes on your feet.

Suddenly, I found that Shen Jiunai, who was sitting on the bench, looked straight over.

Stared at himself.

What's the situation?!

The blankness in his eyes seemed to have suddenly disappeared.

Zheng Xun stopped and waited for a few seconds.

Shen Jiu Nai didn't move.

His hands were cuffed to his chair, as he had been when he had left in the morning, and he was as quiet as he had been when he had left.

Coming back to his senses, Zheng Xun exhaled.

He walked up to Shin Jiu Nai and rolled out the dough viciously.

I thought the zombies could lock on to themselves just now, and I was almost scared to pee.

"It turns out that Shen Jiu Nai has been with him for a long time and has become more like a living person."

However, the dough was still cold, and no matter how hard he tried, Shen Jiuna did not react.

I played with it, but I didn't love it.

"Lend me a chair."

Zheng Xun untied the handcuffs and let Shen Jiuna go, leaving her to wander around the room in a daze.

He unfastened his gear and hung his coat on a hanger.

Then he walked to the balcony with a stool and chair, took out snacks and cocktails, and ate and drank alone.

The evening breeze came slowly, and I felt a hint of coolness.

As far as the eye can see, night envelops the city in chaos.

At a cursory glance, it's pretty much the same as usual, but it's getting darker.

The lights that used to illuminate the houses that dotted the entire city are now less than half of them, and one area after another is in a power outage.

The most lively is still the streets, where zombies roam the streets, tirelessly walking around.

These days, I found some survivors who were stranded, and basically begged him again and again to give him food or help.

In the future, if he meets one and reaches out to help, then he Zheng Xun is no different from those bodyguards and food porters outside.

"So supply and demand determine the market position."

"There are so many requests from me, and it is quite reasonable to raise the price or something."

"It's a pity that there are no peers to set off, otherwise they would have known that I was good."

While pouring the food and drink into his mouth, he repeatedly thought about boring things.

Suddenly, the sound of brakes tearing through the silence came from far away from the street.

Zheng Xun looked at it curiously.

A small silver car was spotted and crashed into a fence on the side of the road.

Zombies gather in the dark.

And the family of three in the car was still slowly unbuckling their seat belts.

Like a middle-aged man and a woman like a couple, they opened the door and escaped with a girl about the size of Lena in their arms.

But they soon collapsed among the corpses, screaming and howling of despair.

After a few moments, the original tranquility was restored.

Zheng Xun was silent, took out a piece of jerky, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
