I run a food city in the last days

Thinking that with his powerful strength and mysterious spiritual powers, he might be able to detect something that he couldn't detect, Jiang Yiyin suddenly became nervous: "Is there something wrong in my house?"

The child looked around, finally shook his head, frowned in confusion, gestured at her, and then looked around again.

However, she followed for a long time and couldn't understand the meaning of the other person's gestures, nor did she see anything special, so she had to say in frustration: "I don't understand. Alas, I have never heard you make a sound. Is it a problem with your throat?" ?How about I ask someone who knows sign language when I have time, and I will learn it first and then teach you, and then we can communicate in sign language."

But she saw the child staring at her blankly for a long time, and suddenly opened her mouth slightly.

But after a while, he still didn't make any sound.

It seemed that the child was unable to make sounds, and she didn't know whether it was due to birth or an injury to her throat. She decided to put learning sign language on her agenda.

"what……"

She looked startled and quickly looked at the child.

His mouth moved, and he slowly said "Ah" again.

The voice was very small, like a newborn kitten or a malnourished premature baby, light and weak.

This child is obviously very healthy now, but the reason why he sounds so weak is that he "dare not".

She didn't know the reason, but she could tell that making a sound made him very nervous. Every time he said "ah", he looked around with a frightened look, as if he was afraid that someone would suddenly jump out because of the sound. It's like punishing him.

She suddenly made a guess, and slowly moved closer, hugging the child who was so nervous that his body was stiff, and asked softly: "Did anyone ask you not to speak before? If you make a sound, they will punish you, right?"

The child was held by her and was still as stiff as a stone at first. After she stroked his back for a long time, he slowly relaxed and rested his little head on her shoulder.

After a while, she felt the head on her shoulder nodding, answering the question she just asked.

She thought that the child had been missing for a while and had many scars on his body when he reappeared.

Some of the injuries she couldn't identify, but others were clearly man-made.

He was called an "escaped experimental subject" in the mission in Eden. It's conceivable that he didn't live a good life before.

The words "in vivo experiment" made her shudder.

Although she didn't understand why those people didn't let him speak out, she didn't care about the reason. Anyway, it proved how miserable the child was.

He cannot be taken away by the people of Eden.

She suddenly felt determined.

When Li Xuan came in with two cups, the child was already asleep.

It seems that he has not gotten rid of the influence of winter sleepiness, but he was awake for a while for unknown reasons today, and he can't hold it anymore.

"Ah, what a pity," Li Xuan held a cup of milk tea, "I thought children would prefer sweet things, so I added an extra spoonful of vanilla syrup."

"It's okay," she smiled. "When winter passes, he will still have the opportunity to drink milk tea. He can enjoy all the food in the food city."

Both of them heard the meaning of her words. Li Xuan was very happy, but Ren Ming looked worried.

She knew what he was worried about and said calmly: "Don't worry, as long as we are in the food city here, no one can force anything that I don't agree with."

Ren Ming was still worried: "But boss you...you are openly opposing Eden like this. I'm afraid it will be detrimental to you if word spreads."

Facing his sincere gaze, Jiang Yiyin smiled and nodded: "I understand, so before I become strong enough, I will hide his whereabouts. Don't worry, he himself is also very strong. Even if he is not here, he is not that Easily caught.”

Ren Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "Boss, you just need to know what's going on."

Li Xuan teased him: "Are you worried about your boss, or are you worried about losing your job?"

"Both," he said frankly, "I feel very happy living in the food city. I hope this life can last forever."

While speaking, he suddenly looked at Li Xuan, who suddenly said, "The machine in the milk tea shop doesn't seem to be turned off," and ran away suddenly.

She blinked. Li Xuan's expression just now seemed...

Jiang Yiyin looked at Ren Ming and saw him looking at Li Xuan's back with some sadness, and suddenly he came to his senses.

Hey, office romance!

Stimulate! Should she stipulate that in the future, she should give her boss a moderate amount of dog food?

Perhaps the teasing in her eyes was too obvious, and Ren Ming, who was originally very calm, couldn't bear it anymore and scratched his head: "I, let me take this child back to the next door."

"Let's get it together. You probably can't get him by yourself."

After the two of them struggled to put the child back on their bed, she suddenly said: "Go pick up Li Xuan. After all, the milk tea shop is more than 300 steps away from the dormitory."

Ren Ming had looked across the shop several times involuntarily. When she suddenly said this, he was immediately embarrassed and speechless, but he still walked towards the milk tea shop honestly.

She smiled and said "tsk tsk tsk" a few times, and then thought of Li Xuan's past experience, and suddenly became worried again.

I don't know if Ren knew it or not. If he didn't know clearly but found it bothered in the end, the two of them might not be able to work as colleagues.

She only worried about it for a while and put it down. After all, the person involved was not her, it still had to be decided by what they thought. As the boss, it was not easy for her to help anyone.

……

When Jiang Yiyin woke up the next day, he found that it was snowing heavily outside again. This time, the snowflakes were not white, but a very dull gray.

Gray snowflakes, each larger than a palm, swirled and fell to the ground, quickly accumulating a shallow layer.

Northeast of the food city, Zheng Huijuan led people over to continue cleaning up the debris in the woods.

Although all construction activities will become easier with the participation of superpowers, the clean-up work is still time-consuming and laborious. During this period, the girls at Mulan Base come early, come to the food court at noon, and eat something in the evening. Rush back again.

But before nine o'clock today, Zheng Huijuan and others suddenly rushed into the food city.

Their expressions were ugly, and her first reaction was that they were attacked by mutated creatures.

However, upon closer inspection, they didn't look like they had been through a battle, and they were looking out with fear. But when she looked out, it was quiet outside, and there was no movement except the sound of falling snow.

Seeing that she seemed to be walking out of the food city gate, Zheng Huijuan pulled her back: "Be careful, this snow is weird!"
