Return to the apocalypse and hug your small thighs tightly
Chapter 92 News
The three of them went downstairs after eating. The proprietress downstairs was not there, and the person at the front desk was a little girl, probably in her teens.
Wang Yu was her age, so he walked up to her and asked, "Hello, I would like to ask. We want to know something. Where is the best place in the base to inquire about information?"
The little girl was reading a comic book. She seemed surprised to see Wang Yu, as if she hadn't seen anyone of the same age for a long time. "What news do you want to inquire about? If it is some normal and serious news, you must go to the human resources department." So, if it’s some improper news, you can only try your luck in the slums.”
"Slum areas, are there slum areas inside the walls?" Wang Yu asked in surprise.
The little girl put down the comic book and said, "This is normal. The base now implements a very strict monthly basic payment policy. If you fail to pay enough supplies or money on time at the end of the month, you will be kicked out."
"Many people just want to stay in the base and don't spend money if they can. They slowly gather together and become a ghetto."
Li Gengrong stood behind Wang Yu and listened, feeling like he was the epitome of him everywhere. From this, it seemed that Base B was not very good either. In his previous life, Base S was not as good as it was, but there was no compulsory requirement.
"Where are the slums? Can we get news when we get to the slums?" Wang Yu didn't believe it and didn't understand.
The little girl didn't understand either. "I also heard from customers that there are people selling information in the slums and it's very cheap."
"But you also know that we, the third-rate and ninth-rate people, are not serious people, so naturally what we are asking for is not serious information."
"The slums will be there soon as you walk to the left along the city wall. They are stuck together with the black market." The little girl pointed in the direction, "You can walk there."
"You're a little girl, so you better pay attention to yourself. There are a lot of rotten people here."
The little girl, perhaps out of sympathy for her peers, said a few words.
Wang Yu accepted her thoughts and nodded, "Okay, thank you, let's go first."
After bidding farewell to the little girl, the three of them walked in the direction she pointed.
The urban village of Black Market is even more chaotic than before the apocalypse. There are so many people and stalls that it is almost impossible to walk normally, not to mention being careful about pickpockets.
"There are too many people here." Pei Zhuangzhou complained while holding his backpack, "Why are they all crowded here?"
Li Gengrong sighed. Most of the time, he was looking for work or simply waiting for customers to come to his door. Anyway, he had been touched several times along the way.
"The front is empty." Wang Yu squeezed in between the two people, but even so, she was touched twice on the buttocks. So many people still didn't know who it was, which made her very angry.
After leaving that section of the road, Li Gengrong turned back inadvertently and saw that many people in the crowd seemed to be looking at them, as if they had lost some fat, which was a pity.
"..." Li Gengrong withdrew his gaze and said in his heart that he would never take this road again next time.
Wang Yu cursed unluckily from the front, "That rotten thing."
This was quite lethal, and as a man, Li Gengrong did not dare to talk to her for a while.
Following the direction given by the little girl, the three of them turned when they saw the road, but they were more cautious than before and would check the situation before going in.
Fifteen minutes later, they turned into a strangely quiet place. The self-built buildings here were not as crowded as before. Every household had clothes hanging on them, and there were not many small advertisements posted on the walls.
After walking for a while, a group of people stood in front of them. The two groups in the quiet and narrow alley looked at each other strangely.
When their faces met, Li Gengrong recognized him immediately. This was the person whose pants he had taken off last night!
Liao Xin saw them frozen on the spot, and then suddenly shouted, "Brother Song!! These are the people who robbed me last night!!"
The middle-aged man who was smoking among the group turned his head. He had a Chinese-character face and was short in stature. He had a straight face. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked like an ordinary uncle, he said, "Arrest him."
"Let's go!" Pei Zhuangzhou immediately ran to the other side.
Li Gengrong didn't even need to shout, he was already rushing to the front with Bao Sa Yazi in his arms.
There were four or five young men who caught up with them. Li Gengrong relied on his experience of living in a village in the city in his previous life and managed to lead them away by twisting and turning.
After running for nearly ten minutes, the three of them accidentally arrived at the slums.
It was an open space, and the base had thrown a lot of waste soil and construction waste here. To live in it, these people only needed to set up a tent, or even spread out mats.
As soon as they saw this scene, the three of them knew they were in the right place.
"Now...what should I do?" Wang Yu looked at the tents at a loss.
Most people in the slums have gone out to work, leaving mostly children, women and people without work.
Pei Zhuangzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no one was catching up behind him, "Just walk forward and wander around blindly."
The discarded construction materials that can be sold and used have been picked up by people in the slums, and the rest is some unused plastic mixed in the soil, which is ugly.
Those tents are also very simple. Some of them have become very thin after being baptized by wind, rain and sun, and they seem to be broken if they are touched.
The slum area is as big as the black market. There are many children squatting on the ground and digging at the mud. When they see them walking past, they open their dark eyes and look at them.
Occasionally, you can see a few people with disabilities digging through garbage everywhere. Li Gengrong looked at those people as if he were seeing his past self.
Humble, dirty, poor, and a bit disgusting in the eyes of normal people. The tattered clothes, limping posture, and face that had not been washed for eight hundred years made people disgusted and pitiful.
Before I knew it, my previous life was already very far away.
Li Gengrong was walking in silence, when a group of dirty little kids gathered around him.
"What are you doing here?" asked an older child.
Pei Zhuangzhou and Wang Yu looked at each other. Wang Yu walked up and asked, "Who among you sells information?"
"Me!" the child said immediately.
Wang Yu frowned and felt unreliable, "Is there anything else?"
"We know a lot!" The child said quickly when he saw that he didn't believe it. "Every morning we run out to pick up garbage. We run everywhere. We know a lot of roads and have heard a lot of gossip and conversations. Just ask if you don't We don’t need any money if you are satisfied.”
Wang Yu sighed and looked back at the two of them.
"Just ask. Anyway, he said he doesn't want the money if he's not satisfied." Li Gengrong said, "I can't find anyone else now, so I'm going to treat a dead horse as a living doctor."
Wang Yu had no choice but to turn around and ask seriously, "Didn't the base previously advertise that it had space powers? What's the situation like now?"
"I know this!" A smaller child squeezed out from the crowd of children. His voice was still so immature that he couldn't tell the difference between a boy and a girl.
"The space power has found the right person. A good person without eyes passed the power to that person in the church. Later she was taken to the hospital."
"When I went to pick up trash near the hospital last week, I heard someone say that space superpowers have joined the superpower group under the research institute."
Wang Yu's eyes widened, and he knelt down and asked, "Then, is there any news about the space superpower?"
The child was stunned and tried to think back, then shook his head, "No more."
"..." Wang Yu was a little disappointed, but at least there was some news.
Pei Zhuangzhou also came up and asked, "Is there any big event about the institute?"
The oldest child stood up and said, "Yes, there was a fire in the research institute two weeks ago. There were many guards there, but no one was arrested."
"Arson?" Pei Zhuangzhou asked, raising his eyebrows.
The oldest child nodded, "It's man-made. The guards even sent people to look for anyone but couldn't find him."
"Do you know who you are looking for?" Pei Zhuangzhou asked quickly.
The oldest child shook his head, "I don't know, there is no wanted person. If there was, I would have been looking everywhere."
"..." Pei Zhuangzhou nodded and said, "Yes."
"Have there been any other major events in the base recently?" Li Gengrong asked.
The eldest child thought for a while and said, "Two days ago, when I was begging on Center Street, I heard someone said that people from the Wolf Wind Superpower Group and the research institute had a fight in the conference room, and the windows were blown up. Doesn't this count? Is it a big deal?"
"Forget it, is there anything left?" Li Gengrong asked again.
The oldest child looked at his little friends for a moment, and they all shook their heads, "No... not anymore."
At this time Wang Yu asked, "Is the Wolf Wind Superpower Group very powerful?"
A child immediately answered, "It's very powerful. It's the most powerful team with powers in the base. The team leader is a fifth-level wood power user. They farm a lot of fields and bring back a lot of supplies from every mission!"
"And more!" Other children interrupted, "That space superpower was from their team!"
Wang Yu took a deep breath and asked, "What happened to the space superpower from before?"
Children, look at me and I look at you, "Just die, otherwise good people without eyes won't be able to get superpowers."
"...Is the power of the Eyeless Good Man a transformation power?" Wang Yu asked with a frown.
The child shook his head, "I don't know either, I just heard that she can take out the superpowers from dead superpowers."
"Why are the good people without eyes called good people without eyes?" Li Gengrong asked curiously.
The oldest child said, "Because she is blind but likes to give out porridge and water in the slums, so we call her the Eyeless Good Person."
"Is it a boy or a girl?" Wang Yu asked.
The oldest child said, "It's a girl."
Pei Zhuangzhou couldn't wait and came over, "Then do you know who was arrested at the base recently?"
The children looked confused and shook their heads collectively, "I don't know."
There seems to be nothing left to ask here, and these little ones don’t know much more.
Li Gengrong and Pei Zhuangzhou looked at each other, and Pei Zhuangzhou stepped forward, "What price do you know about?"
The children couldn't quite understand it, but they knew that they were asking about money. The little ones discussed it and said, "We want five yuan."
Exactly five kids.
Pei Zhuangzhou felt like he had earned something. He took the five yuan handed over by Li Gengrong and gave it to them with a smile, "I will come to see you next time."
The children took it, said something random and ran away, as if they were afraid that Pei Zhuangzhou would regret it.
Wang Yu frowned and had not relaxed since he learned the news about Luo Qingqing, with a sad look on his face.
"It's okay, let's talk about it when we get back." Pei Zhuangzhou patted her shoulder.
