Ye Fan was a rough guy and couldn't understand Shen Lu's emotion, so he crudely attributed it to a woman's sensibility.
This is what he heard. There are always a few scumbags in the mercenary group who like to play with women. They talk freely and express their understanding in casual chats.
Ye Fan inevitably heard a few words, but he didn't remember much else, except that women are emotional creatures.
The next morning, the first thing Shen Lu did when he got up was to check the weather.
Phew, fortunately, the rain became lighter and turned into a gentle drizzle.
The physical exertion was too severe yesterday, and today the body is still a little sore. Shen Lu didn't want to cook, so Cai Su made clear soup noodles for breakfast.
As soon as the water boiled away, Wang Daguo and the Fang family’s mother and son came over.
Cai Su came to the second floor and called Shen Lu. As soon as they met, Fang’s mother held her hand and asked eagerly about her husband.
"Originally, the rain was about to come yesterday. My mother had a fever and was lying in bed unable to move. She came here today after feeling a little better." Fang Ming explained why he didn't come yesterday, his tone Very respectfully and carefully, "Boss, my dad didn't cause you any trouble, did he?"
Shen Lu didn't know how to answer, so he remained silent for a while and let them go up to the third floor.
Fang's mother had a high fever and couldn't walk, so her son carried her to the store. Now Fang Ming had no strength left, so Big Wang picked her up and they climbed up to the third floor together.
Ye Fan squatted on the ground and studied the pastries placed by Shen Lu.
The pastry is the size of mahjong, green and smells faintly sweet.
It should be delicious, but it's a pity that he can't try it.
But there are several in this stack, so he shouldn’t be caught eating one secretly, right?
The more Ye Fan thought about it, the more he became greedy. He stretched out his sinful hand and just picked up a piece when there was a sound of footsteps at the top of the stairs.
No, someone is coming up.
Ye Fan almost lost control of his strength and crushed the small cake into pieces. When Shen Lu came up, he saw Ye Fan playing with the mung bean cake.
"I see it's a little crooked, please straighten it out." Ye Fan explained his behavior seriously, and said hello to Shen Lu with a sullen face, "Good morning, boss."
"Good morning .”
Shen Lu nodded, pointed to the black body bag on the ground, and said seriously: "I'm sorry, your husband unfortunately died due to the strange beast."
Fang's mother seemed to be struck by thunder, Her face was as pale as paper, and if her son hadn't been holding her up, she would have fallen to the ground.
"No...impossible..." The woman's voice was like a gnat, and her tears were like rain, "How could he die? There must be something wrong..."
Fang Mingyi It was difficult to accept this fact. After two nights and one day, my father, who still had the strength to break free of the steel rope, turned into a cold corpse.
He gritted his teeth and handed his mother to Wang Daguo to support him. He stepped forward and unzipped the body bag. He wanted to confirm with his own eyes whether the person lying inside was his father.
Fang Peng died tragically, a strange beast emerged from between his eyebrows, and his entire face was almost torn apart. Ye Fan was not a very careful person, so he just casually put the two pieces of his face together and it was over.
So what Fang Ming saw was his father's corpse with two faces staggered on the left and right. Even though the face was torn, the expression of horror was not compromised at all.
My father must have suffered a lot before he died and suffered unimaginable torture!
“Dad!” Fang Ming could no longer control his emotions and cried loudly while holding his father’s body.
The son confirmed the news of her husband's death, and Fang's mother couldn't bear the blow and fainted.
Shen Lu felt a little heavy in his heart, and winked at Mr. Wang, asking him to send the fainted Fang Mu down to be resettled.
I stood aside silently, waiting for Fang Ming to stop crying before walking to the boy's side.
"The dead are gone, but the living are like this, which may not be a relief for your father."
Fang Ming wiped his tears hard, "...I know. "
Fang Ming knew that the consequences would be serious since his father became abnormal. During this period, too many people died in Xiacheng District. He had heard of several bizarre ways of death.
The initial symptoms of these people were very similar to those of his father. Fang Ming was very scared and frightened, but he did not dare to tell his mother for fear that she would collapse. At the same time, Fang Ming was also lucky, what if his father could get better?
Although life is difficult, when a family is together, they have nothing to fear.
Shen Lu patted Fang Ming on the shoulder and said nothing more.
The next question is how to dispose of Fang Peng's body. The Fang family's mother and son were unwilling to hand over Fang Peng's body to the body collectors, so they decided to take it for burial outside the city.
It's allowed, it's just that few people do it.
Without the protection of the Imperial Capital Survival Base, dangers are everywhere. Fang Ming and his mother go out of the city to bury Fang Peng. It is very likely that all three members of the family will die outside the city.
Shen Lu advised the two of them to think twice, but the mother and son insisted on doing so, and she had no choice but to say more.
After all, this is someone else’s business, she is just an outsider.
Big Wang gave them a ride and went to the city gate to watch the two of them dragging the body bag out, then sighed and walked back.
Shen Lu felt pregnant for a while, then gathered his emotions and started working.
The rain has become lighter today, and it is estimated that there will be guests from nearby for dinner, so she still has to prepare some dishes.
While cooking, Shen Lu discussed with the system.
Shen Lu: "Tongzi, there must be few people coming to eat today. Why don't you reduce the workload a little?"
[Accepted the host's proposal and analyzed the actual situation. , we will make appropriate adjustments. 】
Shen Lu: "Yeah, yeah."
[Ding dong~ Release task: please sell 60 braised pork set meals, 60 Kung Pao chicken set meals, customer satisfaction is three stars or above, completion time for eight hours. 】
Shen Lu: (ω)
Shen Lu: "Tongzi, you are so good. I declare that you are the best Tongzi in the world!"
A total of 500 packages are missing. She will never say that the system is inhumane again.
【However, due to the reduction in the number of tasks, the rewards have also been cancelled. 】
Shen Lu:?
Shen Lu: "Then what is the significance of issuing this task?"
[Supervise the host not to take the opportunity to be lazy. If the host cannot even complete such a task, he will be punished. Oh]
Listen, listen quickly.
Is this something that humans can do?
Shen Lu rubbed the roots of his itchy teeth: "It's really yours."
Because he was angry, Shen Lu pushed the pot extra hard today, and the iron pot banged on the stove. On the stage, Cai Su was frightened when she heard this, fearing that Shen Lu would dismantle the stove.
After finishing the dishes, Shen Lu washed his hands and went to stand at the front desk.
Glancing at her personal panel accidentally, she was surprised to find that the progress of the hidden task had actually increased to 36%!
She remembered that the progress last time was 6%, why did it suddenly become 36%?
Is it because you went to the research institute?
So, pharmaceutical companies are not the right direction for investigation, but research institutes are?
Shen Lu frowned slightly, suddenly thinking of something, his eyebrows relaxed.
If he just went somewhere, the progress would definitely not jump so fast. Shen Lu felt that it should have something to do with Li Qin.
