If it weren’t for this freight worker accidentally causing the current situation, she might not have discovered the secret within the bracelet until her death.
Seeing that Lin Qianhuan didn’t intend to pursue the matter, the boss quickly grabbed a broom and diligently helped her sweep up the shards carefully.
He did sweep earnestly, cleaning up the area within two meters of the fragments, but with the jade mixed with dirt, it was difficult to pick out the pieces.
Lin Qianhuan didn’t mind, however, and told the boss to sweep up the jade fragments and the fine dirt into a plastic bag.
Anyway, the system required burying the complete jade bracelet in the soil of the space, and it didn’t say that other impurities couldn’t be mixed in, as long as all the jade fragments were collected.
After casually rinsing the wound on her palm with clean water, Lin Qianhuan took out her bank card to pay the deposit, but the boss stopped her.
He said apologetically, “I’m very sorry, Miss Lin, this is our fault, I would really feel uneasy if I didn’t compensate you.
How about this, you don’t need to give me the deposit, and I’ll give you some more discounts on the payment, okay?”
Lin Qianhuan nodded, withdrew her bank card, and then went to a fresh meat shop.
The matter of burying the jade bracelet could wait until she finished buying things and went home. Storing up supplies was the most important thing, after all, the more zombies there were later, the greater the danger.
The fresh meat shop owner was skillfully working with a boning knife, sweating profusely despite it being winter.
“What do you want? I have chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and pigs here, take your pick.”
Lin Qianhuan pondered for a moment, “100 pigs, 100 cows, 100 sheep, and 2000 chickens and ducks each, please process them all for me and send them to this address.”
She handed over her contact information and address. Although the fresh meat shop owner was puzzled, he didn’t ask too much.
“I’ll tell you in advance, you’ll definitely have to wait a while for so much. It also takes us a lot of time to slaughter cattle and sheep, so there’s no way to deliver it to you on the same day.”
Lin Qianhuan nodded to show her understanding, “I understand, I only have one requirement, and that is that it must be fresh.
After you slaughter them, keep them fresh and send them directly to this warehouse. Slaughter and send on the same day, until everything is delivered.”
The boss nodded in agreement, and Lin Qianhuan got up and left the market.
After busying herself all day, the sun had already set, and the market became quiet, with only the sounds of shopkeepers greeting each other and closing their shops remaining.
Sitting in the taxi, she leaned against the window and closed her eyes to rest.
The taxi driver was on the phone with his daughter. Although he had told Lin Qianhuan in advance, he still lowered his voice.
The little girl was not old, her voice was soft and sweet, melting people’s hearts.
“Dad, Mom said it’s almost the New Year, can Dad buy me a Barbie doll for the New Year?”
“Dad, I miss you, can you come home soon?”
…
The little girl acted sweetly and coquettishly, the taxi driver coaxed her softly, the atmosphere in the car was harmonious, and even the corners of Lin Qianhuan’s lips curved into a smile.
If the apocalypse had never come, and the zombies hadn’t broken out, how wonderful would that be.
That way, so many people wouldn’t have lost their loved ones, become displaced, and there wouldn’t be so much pain and sorrow in the world.
After a while, the taxi driver slowly stopped the car and gently woke Lin Qianhuan.
“Hello, we’re here.”
Lin Qianhuan paid the fare, pursed her lips before getting out of the car, and said, “It’s almost the New Year, buy some New Year’s goods and go home early to be with the children.”
This was the only thing she could do.
The driver waved at her cheerfully, grinning with a mouthful of white teeth, “Okay, I wish you a happy New Year in advance.”
Lin Qianhuan turned and left, returning home to find her second brother directing two workers to help her install the collapsed apartment door.
Seeing her second brother, Lin Qianhuan ran forward abruptly, stepped over the threshold, and threw herself into his arms.
In her previous life, her second brother used his own flesh and blood to attract the attention of the zombies, helping her win the opportunity to escape. Seeing him standing in front of her completely unharmed again, Lin Qianhuan couldn’t control her emotions at all.
“Second Brother.”
Her voice was thick with sobs, causing Lin Wansheng to frown in distress and gently pat her thin back.
“It’s Second Brother’s fault, I didn’t think that animal could find your address, I’m sorry Qianhuan.
Let’s get the door installed first, you can’t live in this place anymore, Second Brother will find you another house, let’s move.”
Lin Qianhuan calmed down her emotions, wiped away her tears, and shook her head, “I’ve already chosen a new house, and the contract has been signed.”
Lin Wansheng was a little surprised, but also very supportive, “That’s good, that way your older brother and I can feel more at ease, but you need to be careful living alone.”
Lin Qianhuan looked at the workers installing the door and didn’t speak until they finished the installation and left before taking Lin Wansheng into the house and locking the door from the inside.
“Second Brother, did Older Brother tell you when he would be home?”
Lin Wansheng warmed her a glass of milk and gently placed it in front of her, “He’s flying back, arriving at the airport at 1 a.m., I’ll go pick him up.”
Thinking of the zombies that could appear outside at any time, Lin Qianhuan couldn’t help but worry.
“Second Brother, let me go with you, that way it will be safer.”
“What danger is there for two grown men? It’s too cold to go out at dawn, and besides, aren’t you going to get your beauty sleep?”
Lin Qianhuan pursed her lips and told Lin Wansheng what she had seen and heard today.
After hearing this, the other party couldn’t help but feel a little afraid, “People eating people? Why did you even go up to watch? Were you hurt?”
He looked Lin Qianhuan up and down worriedly and immediately noticed the wound on her palm, “What’s going on here, did that person bite you?”
