Chapter 3169: News About the Monster’s Appearance at the Hospital Had Been Suppressed
Ning Shu grabbed her medical kit and started carrying it around again. If they encountered a woman carrying a monster, they could hold down that woman and extract the monster as soon as possible.
News about the monster’s appearance at the hospital had been suppressed. After all, the news had just adamantly declared that there were no more monsters in the city.
If news about the monster’s appearance spread, they would be slapping their own face.
People slowly returned to the city, which revived the city somewhat.
Ning Shu and Wen Xing, meanwhile, continued looking for a needle in a haystack. They looked everywhere for any possible appearance of monsters.
Wen Xing went to the police station to explain the situation. He suggested that they needed to screen people returning to the city and have everyone undergo a physical examination, especially women.
They couldn’t manage this with just the two of them. A city with tens of millions of people was a massive undertaking.
Assigning different people to examine different regions would significantly improve efficiency.
While wandering, if they came across a real estate office, Ning Shu would go in and inquire about house prices.
If she could buy one, she would.The prices had dropped slightly, but she wasn’t sure if they would drop further in the future.
The process of getting a place that she could call her own was seriously not easy.
Ning Shu checked the money on her card—other than her salary, she had no other income.
She needed to find a side job, but since the monster issue hadn’t been resolved and she might still fail her task, she decided to put off this matter for the time being.
Since that day when they had encountered the monster inside the woman’s womb at the hospital, neither Wen Xing nor Ning Shu had encountered any more monsters.
Wen Xing’s copper coins floated in front of him without moving, indicating that there were no monsters nearby.
Wen Xing grabbed the coins and sat down, saying, “This task exhausts me.”
Ning Shu put down the medical kit and said, “This task disgusts me.”
Ning Shu and Wen Xing sat on the side of the road like a pair of beggars.
They had been in sewers and garbage piles and searched everywhere short of the sky. They looked extremely dirty and unkempt.
Some people even threw coins at them.
Ning Shu quickly picked up the coins and put them in her pocket. Then, she took out a plastic mineral water bottle, cut it with a knife, and then put it on the ground.
Ning Shu knelt on the ground and began wailing. “Please, kind-hearted people, my father is sick, wuwuwu…”
Wen Xing: …
He wasn’t that old; rather than her father, he should be her younger brother, right?
“How could your father be so young?” a passerby, who clearly suspected that they were running a scam for money, questioned Ning Shu.
Ning Shu pulled Wen Xing, “He is my older brother.”
“Kneel and beg for help for our father. Pride doesn’t matter—what’s important right now is saving him,” Ning Shu pleaded earnestly.
Wen Xing: …
Some people tossed a bit of money into the plastic bottle in front of Ning Shu—not much, just fifty cents, one yuan, or sometimes five or ten yuan.
“Thank you, your good deeds will definitely be rewarded,” Ning Shu said as she pocketed the money.
Wen Xing, with an expressionless face, wanted to say this was disgraceful, but seeing Ning Shu whistling and counting the money, he decided to let it go.
“Not bad, we made a few dozen yuan,” Ning Shu said with a satisfied smile. “This will cover our meal expenses for today.”
Wandering around the city every day was unpaid work.
Wen Xing: …
He was speechless. How broke could she be?
“Aren’t we eating fasting pills?” Wen Xing asked.
“But we still need water, don’t we?”
Wen Xing: Fine, whatever you say!
Such shamelessness!
As someone from ancient times, Wen Xing had no intention of debating with a woman over such things.
When you encounter enough task-takers, you learn to not get hung up over small things.
“Let’s head to the outskirts of the city,” Wen Xing suggested.
There were many who had fled from the city during the disaster and were now scattered around the surrounding areas. There might still be people carrying monsters there.
