Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

It was too dark last night so I couldn't see Lan Qin's face clearly. Today, after taking a closer look, I found that this little girl has pretty eyebrows and eyes, but her body is too thin, and her skin color is a little yellow due to long-term lack of nutrition. Her twelve-year-old body looks like she is almost ten years old. Fortunately, her eyes are still clear, and it can be seen that she still has great hope for life.

While Gu Tongwan was sizing up the other person, Lan Qin was also observing her carefully.

She was very smart. From the conversation between Xiaoli and Gu Tongwan, as well as the fact that Gu Tongwan walked out of the guest room upstairs, she immediately guessed that she was a tenant here.

In fact, one thing Lan Qin didn't mention last night was that as a person with perception or sensory abilities, she was actually very sensitive to a person's breath. For example, in a patch of clover, she could find the one she had touched before at a glance.

It's not that Lan Qin deliberately didn't tell them. On the contrary, this knowledge point had already been popularized to ordinary citizens through radio, television and official online forums at the base as early as when the psychics appeared.

Seeing Gu Tongwan smiling at her, Lan Qin immediately clutched the hem of her clothes with her hands hanging at both sides, feeling a little helpless, and smiled back a little awkwardly.

However, after seeing Gu Tongwan's face, she was stunned again. She had never seen such a beautiful person in the apocalypse. Even in the previous human trafficking organizations, she had seen many abducted young girls. She also saw noble ladies wearing mink fur and spraying perfume when performing street acrobatics.

I've seen beautiful women before, but even without any makeup on, her bright features couldn't be suppressed, and her pair of eyes that seemed to have hooks at the ends made her look even more charming.

But there is always a hint of coldness between Gu Tongwan's brows, and she conceals this charm very harmoniously, not making people feel inaccessible.

Perhaps because she stared at him for too long, even Xiaoli, who was standing next to him, noticed Lan Qin's daze and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "Girl, I know that everyone likes to look at beautiful women. No wonder you are also obsessed with them."

After Lan Qin realized that she had lost her composure, two red clouds quickly rose on her face. She lowered her head shyly and continued to fiddle with the corner of her clothes.

Gu Tongwan just smiled when he saw this. He didn't mind being looked at like that. After all, he had experienced both kind and malicious gazes since he was a child.

He sat in the dining room with his chin on his support, waiting for lunch to be ready in the kitchen. After he had almost finished eating, he drove to deliver lunch to Liu Jinde and his workers.

Lunch was delivered by Lan Qin, probably wanting her to familiarize herself with the restaurant's service procedures and daily work habits in advance.

On the tray were potato pancakes, a simple bean paste, a can of luncheon meat (cheap meat), and a glass of red unknown juice.

After putting down everything, Lan Qin whispered "thank you" again as she left.

Gu Tongwan, who had already picked up the juice, looked a little surprised at that moment, but when he saw the thin figure running away, he couldn't help but smile.

At this time, the proprietress came out of the kitchen to watch TV, holding a handful of "mutated melon seed shells" that were said to be newly launched by the Agricultural Science Institute. They were similar to the watermelon seeds before the end of the world, but the taste was a little astringent. Gu Tongwan had tasted a few of them on the black market last night, but unfortunately they did not suit his taste so he did not buy them.

"How's that girl?" The proprietress asked casually while staring at the content on TV.

Gu Tongwan bit the potato pancake in his hand nonchalantly, glanced at the figure who was trying to wipe the table, nodded and said, "Looks quite smart and well-behaved, where did you meet him?"

When the proprietress mentioned this, she immediately showed a smug smile as if she had found a treasure.

"This morning, I was at the supply and marketing cooperative with Lao Li, and someone almost had my pockets touched. I still had my cell phone in my pocket at the time, but it was this little girl who reminded me that it didn't get stolen."

The proprietress suddenly frowned when she said this, "It makes me angry. I'm not a person who loves people too much. The world has changed. We have to be careful with children. But this child didn't ask me for anything and left on her own. Later, Lao Li and I secretly followed her, and we found that a child of this age was actually looking for things in the trash cans in the market. I can't bear to see this..." When she said this, tears welled up in the proprietress's eyes. It seemed that she had heard Xiaoli say before that the proprietress actually had a daughter in her early years, but unfortunately she was abducted by human traffickers when she was three years old. If she were still alive and healthy, she would probably be about the same age as Lan Qin.

"Let's just wait and see. If this child is smart and not a bad person, I'll let her work for two months and then get her a new ID card. If she's a child with bad intentions, then I'll just kick her out."

Gu Tongwan asked with a smile: "It seems that if you want to reissue the ID card, you have to pay a fine. I heard that it is three times the price, and it has to be calculated based on the price at that time. It seems that the boss lady will have to bleed a lot this time."

The proprietress just smiled and said nothing, but in fact she had already admitted that she would definitely not make a mistake.

After having lunch, Gu Tongwan drove to the villa area at around twelve o'clock.

****

Villa area

Ye Ziqiu was preparing lunch. After the big fight last night, several people returned to the research institute overnight. They brought back not only the pink crystal core but also the corpse of the demon. Several bigwigs in the research institute held a meeting overnight, and the people in their hunter team were also arrested and held a meeting all night. They were not released until after eight in the morning.

In order to save time, Ye Ziqiu made sandwiches with the leftover toast from yesterday morning and a few slices of luncheon meat in the morning. He also took out the mutant turkey from the refrigerator and heated it up. That was all he would eat for lunch.

When it was almost one o'clock, other people started to get up one after another. Liu Hun yawned and took a look at the monotonous food. It was hard to feel hungry.

Except for Fang Tang who was eating particularly enthusiastically, everyone else at the table looked listless and listless.

No wonder, they would rather have a hearty battle with the mutant beasts than to hold a meeting. Who would want to listen to those old men in their sixties chanting?

Just when everyone had lost their appetite, they suddenly smelled a meaty aroma that was different from the usual one, and it was accompanied by a strong smell of seasoning. This smell had not been smelled for many years. It was similar to a certain "Zhou X Duck" or "Jue X Duck Neck" that could often be seen in the vegetable market or snack street before the end of the world.

We are not the kind of people who are greedy for food, but at this moment this taste can easily evoke the temptation of delicious food that people are about to forget.

Liu Hun frowned and looked at Ye Ziqiu, who was sitting opposite him and eating a sandwich with relish. Next to her tableware was a dark brown glass bottle, as if the tempting smell was coming from there.

"Zi Qiu, what are you eating?"

Liu Hun's words successfully focused everyone's attention on Ye Ziqiu, causing Ye Ziqiu, who was originally in a good mood because of the delicious food, to instantly forget the pleasure of "eating alone".
