Chapter 21: Old Man Chen's Background
The old man urged Shen Ruoran to take it quickly, he was going to divide the next person, everyone was still hungry, and they all needed to eat early.
Seeing that Shen Ruoran didn't react for a long time, the old man simply threw the cake on her lap, his tone was very heavy, and he was indignant: "The bitten cake will not be given to you every day, it is very fair here, it is in turn." ”
Turn your head and hand the rest to someone else.
The others took the cake and immediately stuffed it into their mouths.
If you have strong self-control, you will save a little and eat it in the afternoon. Those with weak self-control will eat all at once in the morning and then starve for tomorrow.
Taking advantage of other people's gluttony, Shen Ruoran endured her disgust, picked up the cake through the sleeves of her clothes, found a wall, blocked the view of others, and secretly put the cake into the space, and when the time came, she found an opportunity to give Huang Xiaoya as a reward for her obedience.
She won't touch anything that someone else has bitten.
A few minutes later, Shen Ruoran took advantage of the situation to find an open place to sit and observe everyone's movements.
In order to conserve physical strength and reduce hunger, the people on this floor sit in place or lie down on the spot.
Except for Cai Juanhua, the aunt doesn't seem to be able to stand the quiet atmosphere, and keeps looking for topics to talk to herself.
Soon, her attention came to Shen Ruoran.
"New, what did you do upstairs before?" Cai Juanhua pulled her voice loudly, walked to sit next to Shen Ruoran, stretched out her black hand, and wanted to touch Shen Ruoran's fair skin.
Shen Ruoran moved two steps back uncomfortably and dodged.
She hasn't forgotten how Cai Juanhua humiliated her yesterday.
frowned and said, "Didn't you say that you work for the gangsters, isn't it a good thing?" So why am I telling you. ”
Cai Juanhua laughed a few times, didn't feel embarrassed at all, and gave herself a round:
"Oh, you came to the 14th floor to live with us, you have to know the roots, don't you? We're going to get along well in the future, you're a girl, it's a little more atmospheric, and we're going to share the things we should share. ”
Hearing these words, Shen Ruoran's head buzzed again, don't look at Cai Juanhua's age, she still understands yin and yang people very well.
Although she said it while laughing, she was actually accusing Shen Ruoran of being stingy, if she didn't say it today, it would mean that she didn't want to get along with the people on the 14th floor.
The sin is great.
Shen Ruoran snorted, walked to sit behind one of the load-bearing walls, and didn't want to see Cai Juanhua's small citizen's face.
She rested her hands on her knees, pondering whether her next move would be to continue to hide undercover or simply sail away.
More than 700 pieces of men's clothing were collected from the 13th and 14th floors, enough for future male employees of the building.
As for women's clothing, what needs to be stocked up in the space at present is elderly clothes and children's clothing, and adult women, regardless of fat or thin, have them.
"Almighty farmer" Lai Yecheng......
Shen Ruoran silently recited this name in her heart, she had already missed Lu Chuan, who was worth 500 points of wealth, and in the past few days, the avatars of some industry leaders on the map have darkened one after another, and the values above her head have disappeared, it should have happened to an accident and completely left this world.
Lai Yecheng is still alive in this building, and if she leaves now, she may not have a chance to see him next time.
Buildings are known to be upgradeable, and special talents have high-value chips, which will speed up the upgrade process.
Shen Ruoran decided to stay for another three days, she would definitely find Lai Yecheng within three days, take him away, and see if she could use his 150 wealth points to achieve the first upgrade of the 31-story building.
"The flood seems to have reached the sixth floor...... Tu Zhouzhou's face was pressed against the floor-to-ceiling window, muttering in distraction.
Old man Chen walked over, looked down along the line of sight, and sighed heavily:
"Is my old bone really going to drown?"
More and more people walked to the window, looking pessimistically at the dark sky and the torrential rain that never stopped.
Cai Juanhua knelt on the ground, slapped her thigh hard, scolded and cried at the same time, as if she was remembering some old person.
She spoke the dialect of her hometown and muttered the names of the same people.
Shen Ruoran, who was resting alone on the other side, her closed eyelashes trembled, and she didn't get up to look at the floor-to-ceiling window opposite.
After another three hours, the screams from downstairs nearly burst the eardrums.
Tu Zhouzhou immediately thought of that bad possibility, and rushed to the floor-to-ceiling window, his eyes glazed over, "7...... 7 floors up. ”
Both men and women collapsed to the ground.
At first, it took an average of 1.5 days to walk one floor, but now in just half a day, all 6 floors have fallen.
According to this calculation, the day after tomorrow at the latest, the 14th floor will cease to exist.
Huang Xiaoya hugged Liu Yun with both hands, and was scared to cry by everyone's atmosphere.
On their right, Zhu Kai hugged his head and cried, a man in his 40s who cried louder than anyone else.
After crying tired, he moved to the side of Old Man Chen and hugged the old man's calf pleadingly, "Old Chen, please save us, you must have a way, right?" ”
Old man Chen sighed helplessly, didn't dare to look directly at Zhu Kai, slowly bent over, broke his tightly clutched fingers, bent his waist, walked to the wall step by step, faced the blank wall, and didn't say a word.
And the other people on this floor, like Zhu Kai, were staring at Old Man Chen.
The eyes are sad and hopeless.
Put your only hope on the elderly.
Shen Ruoran had long seen that Old Man Chen's identity was unusual, including Huang Xiaoya's words yesterday, which was enough to prove that the old man had a label that could not be offended in the hearts of the gangsters.
Shen Ruoran felt that the story of this building might be more interesting than what she had experienced quickly, and she could dig deeper, she also liked to listen to gossip.
She saw the timing and gaged, "Why do you embarrass an old man? This building is the law of the jungle, and strength is the criterion for survival. ”
Someone immediately retorted to Shen Ruoran, "You are a newcomer, what do you know?" Chen Lao's son, who works at the Capital Research Institute, if it weren't for the equipment he sent, where would the upstairs send white cakes every day, otherwise it would have been moldy. ”
There's one more thing to stockpile.
Shen Ruoran put it in the list of materials, pretended to be curious, and continued to ask: "Then why is Old Chen crowded on the 14th floor with us?" What does that device do? The upstairs must have eaten even better than we did. Since it's an old thing, why can't you let the 14th floor be used for a while? ”
Shen Ruoran threw out too many questions at once, and the people who originally refuted were hesitant, afraid of saying the wrong thing and offending people.
Old man Chen saw that he had become the center of the topic for no reason, and he happened to take this opportunity to show his attitude, and his voice was slow with the vicissitudes of life:
"My son is a researcher in the capital, but I'm not."
"The thugs' jealousy of me is limited, if the rainstorm doesn't end, and if something happens to my son in the capital, then I will be a waste in their eyes, so there is no need to expect me to negotiate any conditions, the old man does not have that ability."
