There was a dead silence inside and outside the house. After a long while, a woman's light laughter was heard:

"Open the door, I know there are people inside, the outside has been cleaned up, don't worry, we have no ill intentions."

Although Zheng Yecheng didn't hear what Zuo Ling said, he somehow thought of the three siblings at the gate of the base and slowly relaxed his mind.

He lowered his voice and said to his daughter:

"Daddy and Tongtong are playing hide-and-seek. Remember, Tongtong cannot make any sound until daddy comes to find her."

When Tongtong was very young, Zheng Yecheng consciously gave his daughter similar training. Tongtong's big bright eyes sparkled and she nodded playfully.

He made a shushing gesture to his daughter, closed the closet, tiptoed outside, and said in a low voice:

"Who...are you? Is there something wrong?"

Another chuckle, "We're fine, it's you who's in trouble."

After being in the society for many years, Zheng Yecheng had already mastered the ability to read people's expressions. He did not hear any hostility in Zuo Ling's voice.

After a moment's hesitation, he opened the door a crack. The starlight outside was dim, but he could still make out the three brothers and sisters he had met during the day.

In addition, there were several people lying on the ground.

Zheng Yecheng was familiar with those people. He had seen them when he went to the food factory to look for someone.

His inquiring eyes swept over Zuo Ling and his sister several times. The man had a blank expression and no emotion could be seen, the younger one looked childish, and the woman was smiling and no malice could be seen in her.

The door opened wide, "Come in."

Zheng Yecheng led the way in front, and Zuo Ling waved his hand, and several people on the ground disappeared instantly.

For the convenience of tenants and himself, Zheng Yecheng's single-family house was renovated.

He and his daughter lived in a house on the east side of the first floor. The original window was changed to a door.

There is a small hall at the entrance, and on each side there is a small and exquisite bedroom.

There is a pressure well in the yard, and the kitchen and bathroom have been moved to a side room on the side of the yard.

All the other vacant rooms were rented out. At the peak, there were more than 20 tenants living in his house.

But now, it is empty, without a single tenant.

The three siblings looked around and found that all the houses they had passed by and seen lived in cramped conditions. There were very few places like Zheng Yecheng's living environment.

The room was dark, and Zheng Yecheng lit a lantern. The lantern was usually used for emergencies. He and his daughter went to bed after dark and rarely lit the lantern.

There was not much lamp oil left. Zheng Yecheng sighed subconsciously. After sighing, he realized that there were guests at home and turned around:

"Hey guys, you're visiting me late at night, what's up?"

Zuo Ling smiled:

"We have caused trouble for you, and we are here to return the favor."

The three siblings saw clearly what happened during the day, and the words that the black man gave to his men could not escape their eyes and ears.

If you don’t know, then forget it. But now that you know, how can you just ignore it? Good people should be rewarded.

Zheng Yecheng smiled bitterly:

"Even without you, I would have been targeted by them, but I didn't expect them to be so cruel and want to burn me to death."

Before the end of the world, Zheng Yecheng was a very successful businessman with a group of brothers under him.

Relying on his extraordinary intelligence and accumulated connections, he was much calmer than most people when the doomsday came, and he lived a pretty good life.

Later, resources became increasingly scarce, life became increasingly difficult, and his subordinates dispersed or left. Only two brothers who lived nearby were left to make a living with him.

Half a year ago, the base food factory recruited people, providing food and accommodation with excellent conditions.

Food factories also recruited people in the past, and after eating their own food, they would have some left over to supplement their family income.

Therefore, many people are trying their best to get into food factories, and those who can't get in will look for ways to get in everywhere.

The recruitment conditions for this time are broad, and there is no restriction on gender, age or status, and more people are recruited than usual.

After hearing the news, the two brothers happily went to sign up.

If his daughter wasn't too young, Zheng Yecheng would have gone too.

The strange thing is that since the two of them left, they have never come back once.

Zheng Yecheng went to the food factory to look for someone, but the factory had strict access control. Not only did they not let him in, they also kicked him out.

Zheng Yecheng became suspicious.

Not to mention his two brothers, the one who lives alone, the other one has an old mother with limited mobility at home. That brother is very filial to his mother, it is impossible for him to go such a long time without going home once.

Zheng Yecheng paid close attention and made inquiries from various sources. He was surprised to find that in the past six months, the food factory had been recruiting workers almost every two weeks.

He is a local and knows a lot of people. After careful inquiries, he found that none of the people who were recruited into the factory in the past six months had returned. This was very unusual.

After finding several people whose family members worked in the food factory, Zheng Yecheng expressed his suspicions, and many people became suspicious.

A few days ago, they gathered a group of people to go to the food factory to ask for people.

The food factory’s reply was that the people they recruited had gone to a distant place to build a factory and would not be back in the short term.

The family members who went to demand the release of the person were threatened that they would be fired if they continued to make trouble. Many family members were frightened and immediately gave up the idea of ​​demanding the release of the person.

Only Zheng Yecheng and a few others felt that the matter was doubtful and insisted on firing the people and demanding that the food factory hand over the people.

The commotion lasted for a long time, and more and more people gathered around, everyone wanting to see what the outcome would be.

Finally, the top leader of the food factory came and promised to give them a month to transfer the people back.

Since people had said so, Zheng Yecheng and his family had no choice but to stop arguing.

But the man didn't come back, but the arsonist came.

But it also shows that his suspicion was correct and something really happened to his two brothers.

After listening to Zheng Yecheng's story, Zuo Ling said, "If it doesn't work this time, there's always next time. What are your plans?"

Where else can I go if I leave here? Zheng Yecheng was at a loss.

Since the cause and effect had been involved, Zuo Ling had to do her best to be a good person. She gave Zheng Yecheng 5 jin of corn grits:

"Leave at night and find a place to hide first. Maybe there will be a surprise."

Zheng Yecheng was surprised to see the golden corn grits.

It was not until this moment that he realized that Zuo Ling and the other two were definitely not disaster victims, and it was impossible for disaster victims to have corn grits of such good quality.

5 pounds of corn grits are enough to support his family for a year.

He stretched out his hand halfway and retracted it: "This... How can I be so embarrassed?"

He was just giving Zuo Ling and his sister a reminder. They hadn't accepted it yet, so how could he take such a precious thing from them?

"Take it and go quickly."

After saying that, the three of them turned and left.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"Food factory."

Zheng Yecheng was stunned. Food factory? They were going to the food factory! Aren’t they afraid...

I chased them out the door, but they were nowhere to be found, even the arsonist was gone.

Zheng Yecheng was shocked and no longer cared about Zuo Ling and his sister. He packed up his things at night and hid away with his daughter.

At the same time, the big black man...Dai Jianzhong, was half asleep and half awake waiting for his brothers to come back.

The guy called Zheng Yecheng was a troublemaker. He was the one who led people to demand that the food factory hand over the people.

Dai Jianzhong is a member of the Ding family from another family, and he has no idea why the higher-ups want so many people.

Batches of people were sent over, but there wasn't even a response. This was extremely abnormal.

He was not stupid, and he once tentatively asked Ding Tiancheng, a member of the Ding family who was in contact with him.

Ding Tiancheng looked impatient, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

Realizing that his tone was bad, Ding Tiancheng softened his tone:

"Do your job well. The higher-ups said that if you do your job well, the elders will select some of the outstanding students to help you awaken your superpowers. They've given you 20 spots."

As a member of the Ding family from another family, Dai Jianzhong naturally knew about people with special abilities.

As long as they awaken their special powers, no matter how poor their powers are, the resources and treatment they receive will be far beyond what ordinary people like them can achieve.

"Then...then, do you think it's possible for me to be chosen?"

He stuffed two boxes of cigarettes that he had saved for a long time but had been reluctant to smoke to Ding Tiancheng.

Ding Tiancheng sniffed. The cigarette had a musty smell, but it didn’t matter. It was good enough to have some.

"You have contributed a lot to the Ding family over the years. I will speak well of you to the higher-ups. I will give you a share."

In order to awaken his special powers, Dai Jianzhong gave the two gold bars he had saved to Ding Tiancheng as a gift.

Thinking that he might become a superpower in the future, Dai Jianzhong perked up. He rummaged through the drawers and found half a bottle of white wine. He took a big gulp. The spicy taste rushed straight down his throat and stimulated his brain to become a little clearer.

I looked up at the sky. I’ve been out for so long, why haven’t you come back yet?

He is not a bloodthirsty person, but for the sake of his own path to becoming a superpower, he would be willing to kill 10 or 8 more families, let alone Zheng Yecheng.

It’s just that Zheng Yecheng is too shrewd and likes to meddle in other people’s business. People who like to meddle in other people’s business don’t live long.

When it was dawn and the brothers had not returned yet, Dai Jianzhong knew something had happened.

People were sent to Zheng Yecheng's house, but there was no sign of burning. However, Zheng Yecheng and his daughter were missing.

The missing younger brother is not in Zheng Yecheng's house. He is neither alive nor dead.

Dai Jianzhong was sweating and felt a little uneasy, as if a dark cloud was looming over his head and something terrible was going to happen.
