Become a legend in the interstellar

Chapter 325 The Number One Fan
The lord of Haima City is named Ding Yixiu, a middle-aged man with good means, and firmly holds the power of the entire city. He looks like a dictatorial king in this city.

His son's name is Ding Can, and he seems to be the number one fan of Masked Man.

It is rumored that this young man has studied every battle of the Masked Man, learned his style of action, and implemented his chivalrous spirit. He often calls himself "The Masked Man-Seahorse City Branch".

For this reason, Zero Point Tavern had vaguely reminded the city lord Ding Yixiu, hoping that he could take care of his children.

Dante Yixiu also suffered from endless headaches, and often sighed like "this account is useless".

Su Xia stood in front of the taxi, looked at the dilapidated trucks, and asked, "Where did he get these supplies for the poor? Is it his own property?"

"No, the city lord's children are too young to take over the property managed by the city lord."

The driver replied honestly: "These materials should be collected from many businessmen and dignitaries in the city."

"plunder?"

These two words flashed in Su Xia's mind, and the literal meaning didn't seem right.

He asked: "How to search specifically?"

The driver replied: "The son of the city lord, often visits the homes of businessmen, dignitaries, and rich people, and chats casually. When he goes out again, he has a lot of material lists in his hand. Those people gave it to him."

"Oh, such a search..."

Thinking about it, the status of the son of the city lord gave the young man a lot of convenience.

Those businessmen in this city dare not refuse to give him what he wants.

And he asked for it very measuredly, not asking for too much at a time, and didn't hurt those people, but at most made them feel sad.

"How is the life of the people here, can they have enough food?"

"I'm sure you'll be able to eat enough." The driver nodded immediately, "After all, everyone escaped from a disaster, and no one is more noble than the other. Many people are rich now, but they have never forgotten the hardships of fleeing in the past. Donate money, and... the refugee resettlement houses here are also the first to be built in the entire southwest region, and even the machine race has praised it."

"Well, the machine clan needs stability now."

"Yes."

"Thank you for letting me know."

"No thanks, no thanks, it should be."

The driver forced a smile, and he didn't dare not tell a ruthless person like Su Xia.

"It's getting late..."

Su Xia glanced at the time, then said goodbye to the driver, approached this huge refugee living area without haste, and observed as she walked.

There is no rubbish everywhere in the slums of Coral City, the roads are clean, and there are even artificial lawns on both sides.

The appearance of refugee resettlement houses is very common, row after row of dusty concrete buildings.

It looks a bit like the He Lxiao F building of the former S Union. Later, my country also built a large number of similar houses in the early stage of industrial development. It was called "Tongzi Building" by many people. Countless people spent their childhood in those buildings. .

"There is no cutting corners, and there are plenty of materials."

Su Xia silently felt that there were many steel bars in the buildings of these resettlement houses, and the safety of the houses was enough to guarantee.

Today is a rare sunny day in winter. Clothes and quilts are drying outside the windows of every household. New Year's window grilles are pasted on the windows of every household. The smell of lunch is wafting in the wind, and children's noises can also be heard.

This peaceful and harmonious scene is similar to those of some old cities on Earth.

Following the guidance of the task objective, Su Xia turned left and right in this area. After walking for more than ten minutes, she didn't know how many forks she turned, and finally found the first target family.

The buildings here are too similar and too dense, and most people who come here for the first time will get lost.

【Arrived at the target location】

After approaching, a prompt popped up for the already gray mission [Burial Bone], it seems that this mission has not completely failed, and there is a turning point, and the next stage of mission rewards may still be available.

Su Xia walked up the dusty concrete stairs to the second floor, searched along the corridor, and finally rang a house on the right side of the corridor.

"Dong dong dong... dong dong dong..."

Knuckles tapped the wooden door lightly, and the dull sound echoed in the long corridor. The voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on one by one, and the lights were a bit dim.

Su Xia put on the life perception glasses and knew that there was a mother and daughter in the room.

In the special investigation team organized by Old Beifeng, there was a psychic creature named "Zhu Hu". His psychic talent was related to eyesight. .

When he died, his daughter was not yet born and became a posthumous child.

Su Xia is now visiting his wife and daughter.

Standing at the door, he could clearly hear the baby girl crying from inside the door.

"Who?"

A woman's voice sounded tired from inside the door.

Su Xia replied, "Mr. Zhu's friend."

"Wait a mininute."

There was a sound of pots and bowls colliding in the room. The woman was cooking just now, she seemed a little flustered, and hurriedly wiped the oil stains on her hands on her clothes.

After a while, she walked quickly to the door and unlocked it.

"Crack!
The wooden door opened a gap, revealing a sallow and thin face.

Li Qian, Zhu Hu's wife, got married two years ago.

She is only in her 20s, but her face is full of fatigue, the corners of her eyes are full of wrinkles, and a few strands of withered yellow and dull hair hang down on her forehead. She seems to have no time to comb, and her body is full of oily smoke.

"Ms. Li Qian?" Su Xia asked.

"It's me... Excuse me, are you?"

"My surname is Su, Su Defu. I used to run away with Mr. Zhu. I heard that something happened to him, so I came to have a look. Is there any news about him now?"

"He...he's been missing for months."

Li Qian's expression darkened, and she shook her head slightly.

In the Old North Wind Organization, in order to avoid hurting their families, some members faked their own deaths, some disappeared directly, and some have been using double identities.

For example, Zhu Hu, on the surface, is just a freight driver, transporting goods between the south and north of the mainland all the year round, sometimes it takes more than half a month to go.

Li Qian still does not know that Zhu Hu is dead, and only thinks that he is missing.

Of course, in this cruel age, there is no difference between disappearance and death.

Sometimes it's better to just die.

Those who disappeared and were imprisoned, some could not even ask for death.

"Mr. Zhu is a good man. I believe that he is an auspicious person." Su Xia didn't tell the truth, so it's good to let this woman think about it, otherwise she may collapse directly due to her physical condition.

"Thank you, thank you... Please come in, come in and sit down, the house is a bit messy..."

Li Qian showed a tired smile, opened the door, and invited Su Xia to sit in.

The room was indeed a bit messy, many daily necessities were piled up in the corner of the room, and the crib was next to it, and the child who was several months old was crying.

The interior of this kind of resettlement room is not decorated, even the basic painting has not been done, it is also dusty, and the cement wall is very rough to the touch.

An old-fashioned chandelier hangs in the center of the room, its shade gathering dust.

The kitchen was remodeled from a balcony, and it was very small. The windows were covered with mist, and the cement stove was full of scattered pots and bowls. There was also only one chandelier, and the lamp wire was covered with black oil stains.

Pork porridge was cooking in the pot, and it was bubbling. It seemed to be a little mushy, and there was a mushy smell in the air.

"Does the child have a name?" Su Xia asked.

"Yes, he took it when he left. It's called Zhu Hong." Li Qian gently shook the crib, her tired eyes were full of kindness.

Zhu Hong, the name is simple and easy to remember.

Su Xia looked around, and saw the wedding photo of Zhu Hu and Li Qian on the pile of debris in the corner of the room.

Zhu Hu in the photo was similar to what the commander remembered, he looked like a very simple and honest young man.

After a while, the child's crying gradually subsided, Li Qian immediately ran to the kitchen again, stirred the porridge in the pot, and said to Su Xia apologetically, "I'm really sorry..."

"It's okay, there are children in the family like this." Su Xia smiled.

"Does Mr. Su have any children?"

"No."

Su Xia is only in her early twenties, and she has not even reached the legal age for marriage, so naturally she has no children.

It's just that the world has been in war for years, and many people get married early, and some even have children in their teens, just to leave a descendant as soon as possible.

"It's like this..." Su Xia talked about the business, "I borrowed some money from Mr. Zhu before to start a business, and now the business is barely started. This time, I plan to pay off the principal and interest together."

"He borrowed money to go out?" Li Qian was a little surprised.

"Yes." Su Xia nodded.

"How much is it?"

"Principal plus interest, a total of 11."

Su Xia took out a check from her arms and filled in the number. It was from the Continental General Bank, and it was very convenient to withdraw money in any city.

Hearing this number, Li Qian was taken aback. She almost lost the spoon in her hand, and stared blankly at the check in Su Xia's hand.

"This... so much money?" She couldn't believe it.

"Yes."

Su Xia smiled slightly, and at the same time handed out a card with Yiyi's contact information written on it.

That was Yiyi's personal card number that he applied for not long ago, and it has not been entered into the system of Zero Bar, so it will not be monitored.

"Please keep this business card."

Su Xia made it clear that if you encounter a problem that cannot be solved, you can call the phone number on the card, and the person on the other end of the phone will find a way to help solve it.

Hearing this, Li Qian was silent for a moment.

She is not stupid, so she can naturally guess that Su Xia's identity may not be as simple as he said.

Even the money was not lent out by her husband, it was just that Su Xia wanted to find an excuse for her.

but……

In this way, her husband was probably dead.

Li Qian couldn't help but feel sour, her eyes were red, she turned around, lowered her head to the window to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath, silently swallowed the sorrow welling up, and finally turned around and said, "Thank you, thank you..."

"It's okay, I should do it."

Su Xia thought for a while, and took out a few more oral medicines, all of which were for nourishing the body.

Taking care of a child alone is much more difficult than imagined, and it is easy to exhaust the body.

He put the potions on the table and said: "These potions are made by a master. Take one at the beginning of every month. It will be of great help to the recovery of the body after giving birth."

After speaking, Su Xia always felt that it was not enough.

So he took out a few more medicines suitable for children, and told Li Qian to use them while the children were growing up.

Finally, Su Xia took out a small semi-automatic pistol.

"Can you use a gun?" Su Xia asked.

"I... used it once when I was fleeing."

"That's good."

Su Xia took out another six boxes of ammunition and a special silencer, and said: "This gun has very little recoil and is suitable for women... This city is a large transit station. There are a lot of businessmen and tourists, and some hands and feet are always dirty. Yes, remember to take it with you when you go out."

After finishing speaking, he took out another gun instruction manual and placed it next to the six boxes of ammunition.

With these things in place, it should be able to guarantee the future life of the mother and daughter.

As long as Su Xia doesn't die, he can come back to see at any time to ensure that the families of these old North Wind organization members live smoothly.

After doing all this, Su Xia bid farewell and left.

"I still have something to do, time is very tight." Su Xia glanced at the time and said, "If I get any information about Mr. Zhu, I will contact you as soon as possible."

"Thank you, thank you...Mr. Su has a safe journey."

Li Qian hugged the child, sent Su Xia outside the door, and watched Su Xia go away.

The life of the mother and daughter is better than Su Xia imagined.

In fact, even if Su Xia doesn't help, they can barely live, but it will be more difficult.

There is very little furniture in the room, cardboard boxes, foam templates and other debris are piled up together, and there are no conventional electrical appliances, not even a TV, like people in the 70s and [-]s.

People who live here can get a little subsidy every month, and the government will give priority to recruiting people from here for various construction projects.

However, it is really inconvenient for a thin single mother with a newborn child to go to work.

"Next target……"

Su Xia looked at the mission map and went to another location according to the guidance.

This area is really too big, even a psionic creature like him can barely tell the direction.

More than ten minutes later, after walking through rows of dusty reinforced concrete buildings, Su Xia finally arrived at the second target location.

"It's here."

Su Xia noticed that the icon of the task [Burial Bone] was a little brighter, not as dark as before.

Just as he was about to go upstairs, an old gray truck suddenly drove up in the distance, which was one of the few trucks he had seen outside.

The speed of the car was very slow, wobbly, and finally stopped in front of the building.

"Crack!"

The back door of the truck was opened, and two people in gray employee uniforms jumped out.

Afterwards, the rest of the employees in the compartment began to move goods out, including quilts, oil and grain, warm clothes and other items, which were exactly what people in this area needed.

The front door opened, and a very energetic young man jumped out of the passenger seat, looking about eighteen or nineteen years old.

[Ding Can: Male, son of the lord of Seahorse City, one of the admirers of the masked man...]

Su Xia's heart skipped a beat, she didn't expect to meet this person here.

He kept silent and walked upstairs slowly.

Ding Can and a few employees over there didn't seem to notice him, or maybe they regarded him as a person here and didn't care.

Ding Can directed everyone to unload the goods, with a list of goods in his hand, and carefully corresponded to each item.

Not long after, the driver in the car also jumped down. He was also a young man, walked to the back of the car, and whispered to Ding Can, "Boss, this is not enough. There are so many people in this slum, the goods in our warehouse It's almost over... This New Year, some people may go hungry and suffer from cold."

"Not enough? Then grab it again." Ding Can said bluntly.

The voices of the two were not loud.

Standing in Su Xia's position, an ordinary person would definitely not be able to hear what they were saying.

But Su Xia heard it clearly, and the driver went on to say, "Going to rob those businessmen again?"

"Nonsense, if you don't rob them, who will you rob?" Ding Can didn't care. "Those fat-bodied things, like fat pigs, eat up the entire city. It's good to kill two for the New Year!"

"But many merchants in many cities are complaining to your father."

The driver hesitated and said, "If this continues, I'm afraid your father will take action."

"Right……"

Ding Can folded his hands, thought about it carefully, and seemed to think that these words made sense.

He nodded: "Okay, don't rob those merchants, just go and rob my father!"

　Happy New Year, fellow readers!
