Trading town.

A snowmobile that has experienced vicissitudes slowly drove into the town.A mother and daughter, get out of the car.

"Mom, will Daddy be here?" Marianne was wearing a thick padded jacket, and two blushes appeared on her fair cheeks from the cold.

Her facial features are very standard, but her clothes lower her appearance. If she dresses up well, she will definitely not lose to a beauty like Alice.

"Yes, Dad will definitely be here." Edith, who was wearing a thick coat, also got out of the car. Because of the long driving time, she faced the cold wind directly, resulting in frostbite on her cheeks.

The two of them came to this trading town from home.

Not long after Lin Bei and Zangwill left, a ferocious beast appeared in the area near their home.

Fortunately, Edith noticed it in time and took Marianne away without hesitation, otherwise, they would have been trampled into meatloaf by that demon.

They went straight to the trading town all the way home, and when they were [-] kilometers away from the trading town, the people who came back from the trading town said that the trading town was hit by a cold current, and the whole town was covered by ice and snow.

As a last resort, they had to spend two nights with the people they met on the way, and they just arrived today.

In fact, Edith also thought of going to the scientific research institute to take refuge, but because the journey was too far, they went out in a hurry and did not bring enough supplies to allow them to reach the research institute smoothly.In desperation, they had no choice but to follow Zangwill's footsteps and came here.

"Yes, he will be here."

"Yes, definitely will..."

Marian just asked, but Edith replied over and over, not to Marian, but to herself.

Having lived in Xinglan Continent for so many years, she knows how terrifying the cold current in this continent is.

In case Zangwill and Lin Bei fail to find shelter in time when the cold snap arrives, the two of them may very well...

Thinking of this, Edith didn't dare to think about it anymore.

In such a troubled world, as a woman, she could not raise a child by herself.

If Zangwill died, she didn't know how she was going to live, she couldn't feed Marianne.Unless, it is betraying his innocence.

She is a very womanly woman, and it is difficult for her to accept such a thing.

But if it was a last resort, for Marianne, she had to.

"Let's go, let's go find Dad." Shaking her head, throwing away all the wild thoughts in her mind, Edith Marian forced a smile.

But Marian, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, didn't know what her mother was worried about. She thought that her father was really in this trading town, as her mother said.

"Every time Dad makes a deal, he goes to Miss Alice's house, we go there to find him, he should be there."

I also mentioned to Edith that Zangwill came to trade in the small town. Edith also has a certain understanding of this, and probably knows where to find him.

The two got back on the snowmobile and groped their way to Alice's house.

On the way, they also saw the house that was trampled to pieces by the snow ape two days ago, and also saw the ruins left by the cold current erosion.

"Mom, you...look there..." Suddenly, Marianne called out tremblingly.

Edith, who was driving, looked in the direction of her finger, and two ice sculptures appeared in her field of vision without warning and defenseless!

Inside this ice sculpture, there are two dead people frozen!

Although the cold current receded, the ice and snow did not melt. These people who were frozen were still trapped in the ice!

Edith was so frightened that her driving hands trembled, and she almost slammed the snowmobile into the wall.

"Marian, close your eyes and don't look at these things."

After telling Marianne, Edith tightened the accelerator and drove straight to Alice's house.

In front of Alice's house, there was a man sitting carelessly, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, his face looked like a dead mother, and there were scars from being whipped at the corner of his mouth.

This person was Powell, who had had an affair with Lin Bei before.

He was originally Alice's personal servant, serving Alice exclusively, but because of Lin Bei and Zangwill's affairs, Alice lost trust in this man.

Erica also dislikes such a murderous person. If it weren't for Alice's kindness and old love, Powell would have been expelled from the house by Alice's family.

Although the current Powell has not been driven away, his status in the family has dropped several levels in a row, falling from the clouds to the bottom.

In the past, his daily job was to show off behind Alice, and his life was very comfortable; but now, he has become a gatekeeper, and even has strict time limits for entering and leaving Alice's house.

"Don't bring the car in, our trading shop has been cancelled, hurry up and go away!"

Seeing that Edith and her daughter were about to drive in, Powell thought they were here to make a deal, and immediately urged.

"I'm sorry, we're not here to make a deal, we're here to find someone." Not at all dissatisfied with Powell's inhumanity, Edith hurried forward to deliver a special parallel import.

In today's Xinglan Continent, currency has long been out of use.

If you want to trade something, you must bring something of equal value.

Especially food and things to keep out the cold, these two are the most valuable, more valuable than gold.

Powell's eyes lit up when he saw the aquatic products sent by Edith.After the cold current invaded Xinglan Continent, all the lakes and oceans on the continent were frozen. These water specialties are very rare and very precious.

There are so many traders who have long-term cooperation with their Alice family, only the Zangwill family trades aquatic products.It is precisely because their family trades things that other families do not have, so the two can maintain a long-term cooperative relationship.

"Why do you have aquatic products? How much do you have at home? If there are more, I can give you a channel to trade with the Alice family in the future." Powell said carelessly while eating the dried fish sent by Edith. .

Although his status in Alice's family has plummeted, Powell is still arrogant, thinking that one day he will be able to regain his original status, and even uttered wild words to arrange channels and paths for others.

When he said this, he didn't think about what kind of character he was.

"Sir, thank you very much." Edith thought she had met a good man, and thanked Powell: "Actually, our family and your family have already established a cooperative relationship, and my man will come to you every year to make deals in exchange for Supplies to keep out the cold. Thank you for taking care of him all these years."

Powell didn't hear those words of thanks later.

His attention was all on the first half of Edith's sentence.

This woman who owns parallel imports already has a cooperative relationship with her family, but why didn't she know it?
Wait a minute, he said that his men come here every year, could it be...

Thinking of this, Powell couldn't help asking, "Who is your man?"

"His name is Zangwill. He just came to you to trade things the day before yesterday. I came here to look for him. By the way, this time he came not only alone, but also brought a very handsome young man with him. Excuse me, is he still here?" Are you here?"

Edith confessed honestly that she didn't notice Powell's gloomy expression at all.
