Chapter 60: Mutation - C18
Anjiu nodded, and remembered that he still needed a screwdriver, so he asked the boss to get him the cheapest one.
Unexpectedly, the boss simply said, "It's not much money, I'll give it to you."
Anjiu was stunned and thanked him.
The screwdriver was placed high up and the boss couldn't reach it even if he stood on tiptoe, so he moved a stool and stood on it to look for it.
During this time, the two chatted for a while, and the boss basically talked about trivial matters in the store, and Anjiu responded casually.
She scanned the items one by one, trying to see if she had missed anything, but as she looked, she found a bag of familiar color at the bottom.
It looks very similar to this bag of milk powder.
Anjiu leaned forward and took a closer look. It was indeed a milk powder bag with an open mouth, like an empty bag that had been thrown away after drinking.
When to throw away the garbage is other people’s living habits. Anjiu withdrew his gaze.
"found it."
The boss got down from his chair and handed over the screwdriver.
Anjiu thanked her again and put the wine in her pocket. She was about to leave when she was stopped by the boss again.
"I'm so sorry. I have to trouble you again." He put on a sincere and apologetic expression again and took the bottle in his hand. "Can you help me add some hot water? I can't see the scale on the bottle clearly. If I add too much or too little, my daughter-in-law will find out and nag me again."
Seeing An Jiu was silent, he immediately added: "Very soon, girl, just help me! Just consider it as a favor I gave you, and a gift, and do a good deed every day, good people will be rewarded!"
With a bitter face, he pushed the bottle of milk powder in front of Anjiu, clasped his hands together, and looked begging.
"..."
Anjiu turned his head and looked towards the deepest part of the store.
The goods piled high on both sides blocked most of the light. In the most inconspicuous place in the darkness, the frame of a narrow door could be vaguely seen. It covered a gap, revealing a piece of yellowed old bed sheet.
Her heart tightened and she realized something was wrong.
How could a baby who is still drinking milk not cry at all after being hungry for such a long time?
Is the child’s mother really comfortable leaving a baby at home to be taken care of by an elderly person who is blind and deaf?
Even if she really went out, how could she not know the baby's feeding time and not even prepare milk powder and warm water?
A lot of questions suddenly flooded Anjiu's mind.
But she didn't show any emotion on her face. She picked up the milk powder and bottle naturally, walked towards the door while looking at the scale line in a circle, and said, "Since you asked, of course I have to help. Let me see how much water to add to 3 spoons of milk powder..."
"Okay, then ma-where are you going!!"
wow-
The stool fell to the ground, and the boss ran out from behind the counter with heavy steps, trying to catch the man in a rage.
Anjiu rushed out of the door and ran as fast as he could. Fortunately, the car was parked relatively close. He opened the door, jumped in, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
On the passenger seat were the milk powder and bottles she had brought out from the store.
The boss ran with two stiff legs and a strange posture. He chased the car all the way to the intersection, pointed at the taillights and cursed loudly:
"Thief! Milk! Thief!"
"I! I've memorized your license plate number!"
……
Passing by a garbage collection truck, Anjiu rolled down the window and threw the two things in, then parked the car in front of the execution team's door.
As soon as I stepped on the brakes, I saw from the rearview mirror that the glass door was pushed open with a clang, and several figures appeared at the gate.
Anjiu bent down to avoid their gaze, pushed open the door, used the cover of the bushes to get away quickly.
On the avenue next to us, two commercial vehicles loaded with people sped past and stopped at the door.
Those standing on the steps stepped forward and began to move the people who had gotten off the car.
An Jiu looked carefully and found that most of the people brought back were ragged and skinny, and they were obviously fellow villagers.
Their faces were bruised from the resistance, there was blood around their mouths, their clothes were torn to tatters, their hands were tied behind their backs with thick ropes, and they were pushed into the building.
Maybe he was caught for committing a crime.
Anjiu was about to leave, but stopped when he saw the people getting off the second car - men, women, young and old, from all walks of life, it was a real hodgepodge.
Some people didn't understand what was happening, so they didn't dare to make trouble and didn't make any noise.
He looks too honest, and it's impossible for him to be the kind of person who would start trouble.
It wasn't until the last four people came down that the situation started to get weird.
Anjiu gently pulled aside the bushes to allow a clearer view - one of the execution team stepped forward and pulled off the first person's mask.
This action seemed to irritate them, and they immediately struggled to break free, and the four of them fled in different directions.
The execution team was shocked, and they all took off their weapons from their waists and aimed at——
"boom!"
The huge noise was like a starting gun, and after a second of silence, everyone was in chaos.
The group of people who had just been brought in ran out like crazy, and took with them the other people who had been captured earlier.
The staff in the room were pushed around in the chaos. When they used sticks to defend themselves and try to maintain order, someone jumped on their backs and hit their eyes with nails. They kept screaming...
Loud noises were emitted in the air one after another, and each time someone fell limply to the ground.
Seeing that the fleeing person was about to bring danger to him, Anjiu immediately leaned down and left.
She crossed the road and walked into the shadow of the building opposite. Looking back, she saw that the group of people seemed to be running around, but they were subconsciously running in direct sunlight.
Even the execution team that rushed out saw Anjiu on the opposite side and just glanced at him before chasing after other people.
Anjiu quickened her pace and left. She was not really safe. The other party just didn't want to, but that didn't mean he couldn't. When he looked at her, it was as if he was judging her value, and she was obviously not more attractive than others.
This look was the same as the look in the man's eyes before. Anjiu didn't understand what criteria they used for evaluation, but he quickly guessed that a high recognized value would mean a deeper degree of mutation.
Considering the unknown substances before, Anjiu boldly guessed that it was related to the amount of absorption.
When she first came to this world, she experienced a "rainfall". The cleaners and security guards she met all thought the smell was so bad that they even needed air fresheners to suppress it.
She spent the night on the rooftop covered with a raincoat. When she woke up in the morning, the inside of the raincoat became sticky and there were two handprints on the sofa beside her.
The next day she found a place to stay and spent most of the day in the mall, so the time she spent outside getting wet became shorter, so on the third day, which was this morning, only her palms had sticky residue.
But the security guard changed drastically. On the first day, he vomited continuously and felt the stench, but on the second day, he showed an obsession with the smell. Not only him, but other customers as well.
They rushed out like crazy, and even fought until blood was seen.
And today, on the third day, even the execution team cannot avoid...
Anjiu looked up at the clear blue sky. The sun was very big and the light was bright, but she felt cold all over.
