The owner of the small courtyard is the old farmer. He lives near the foot of the mountain. Because it often snows in J City in winter, they built a fire pit, so even if he and his wife were alone at home, nothing would happen.
Seeing that they were bringing a dead man, I was so frightened that I almost flew out of my mind. After they explained, they showed a look of pity on their faces and agreed to send them to the city.
"But I only have a tricycle, do you kids mind?"
"I don't mind, I don't mind!"
As long as it can be delivered to the urban area, they no longer have to choose.
The three-wheeled motorcycle roared, and everyone got on it. The old farmer said something to his wife and drove onto the road.
The snow was very heavy. Even after the road was cleared, the snow was still very deep. The three-wheeled motorcycles left deep marks along the way. The cold wind stung my face like a steel knife. It lasted more than an hour. Arrived in the city only hours later.
They did not return to the hotel and went directly to the police station.
Zhou Yan ignored the looks of Yang Shuo and others and told the truth about what happened in the mountain. Suddenly the people in the police station looked at Yang Shuo and others and felt something was wrong.
Yang Shuo couldn't help but said: "The snow is too heavy and it's so cold outside. There's nothing we can do."
The police officer said with a stern face: "You are the leader of the team. The situation is not good. You should stabilize the team members' emotions, but you just watched her go. Listen to what you just said, 'Teach her a lesson.' Is it time to teach people a lesson in the ice and snow? You are already suspected of harming people, you know!"
It's really cool that a group of college students dared to travel to such a far place and left people behind several times.
"Bring them in for interrogation, and you guys should also take notes."
Yang Shuo and others suddenly panicked: "We didn't do it on purpose, we didn't break the law, we..." They were all taken away together with Ji Qing.
Another police officer nodded to Xihe and others: "You guys come in and take notes."
Xihe and others had nothing to say, so they went back after taking notes. As for Xia Li's body, they waited for people from the police station to take it to the crematorium. After cremation, they took it away and sent it back to Xia Li's parents' house.
Along the way, Xihe looked outside at the people who were cleaning the road in full swing, and he couldn't feel happy at all.
In another week, the snow will continue to fall again, and it will continue to fall.
Within three months at the latest, all telephone poles and other equipment will be frozen, the snow will become deeper and deeper, there will be no electricity, and there will be no place to grow crops. The whole world will enter the Ice Age, and hunger and freezing to death will become the norm.
She must find a place to spend the winter and prepare food before that comes.
Back at the hotel, Xihe first charged his mobile phone, then turned on the heater and went into the bathroom to take a hot bath.
After coming out of the shower, she wiped her hair and turned on her phone. There were five or six missed calls from the original owner's parents. She said she was in the hotel and wanted to read a book because she was worried about them, so she turned off the phone in the next few days. .
They haven't called each other since, probably because they haven't been able to get in touch, so they started to worry.
She dialed the phone: "Mom——"
Dong Dong Dong, there was a knock on the door.
She walked over to open the door and talked to Tan's mother with a smile: "Well, I've been studying. It's okay. I'm fine." She signaled Zhou Yan to come in, then turned and returned to the room, "I'm going back in two days..."
Zhou Yan was at a loss with the food box, closed the door after a while, and walked in lightly.
Xihe sat on the bed and told Tan's mother that it would snow again and asked them to use half of the money to buy food and heating supplies.
Tan's mother refused: "The snow has stopped. If it snows again, it will come from the north. It won't snow again from the south. Just go to school and don't worry about it." Half the money to buy food? They don’t plan to open a rice store! The crossbow is still too small and careless.
Xihe could only settle for the next best thing: "Mom, I want to buy some skin care products and clothes recently. Please transfer some money to me."
Tan's mother immediately said, "Okay, I'll transfer 20,000 to you later."
The tone was gentle, and there was a sense of compensation. After all, the daughter wanted to buy food for their own good.
Xihe negotiated the price: "50,000."
Tan's mother: "Fifty thousand? What do you want to buy for fifty thousand? Nunuu, we can't imitate others in buying luxury goods. Those things just look good but are of no use." Balabala said.
Xihe: "Mom, please."
Tan's mother: "...Okay." Then she hung up the phone.
The Tan family runs a small supermarket and can earn 20,000 to 300,000 yuan a year. The family's financial situation is a bit small, but it is tens of thousands or even tens of thousands before they can wave. Giving 50,000 yuan to their daughter is already the limit.
Holding the phone, Xihe pondered, what can 50,000 yuan buy? Food needs to be bought, heating equipment needs to be bought, and a generator.
"Nu Nu, are you short of money?"
Xihe looked over, and Zhou Yan opened the lunch box and said with red ears: "If you don't have enough money, I still have some..." Suddenly worried, what if Nunuu doesn't want to spend his money.
Unexpectedly, Xihe's eyes lit up: "How many do you have?"
Zhou Yan quickly took out his mobile phone, opened a certain treasure, then opened a certain v, and handed it to her: "It's about one hundred thousand, can you see if it's enough?"
Xihe raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan still had savings. Then he looked at him and said, "Why don't you ask your parents for more?"
One hundred and fifty thousand may seem like a lot, but we don’t know when the apocalypse will end. Moreover, clothes, shoes, food and drink, all of which have been collected, are simply not enough for two families.
Zhou Yan blinked: "Okay, I'll ask now."
Xihe nodded and went to the bathroom to dry his hair.
Zhou Yan dialed the number, and Zhou's father quickly picked up the phone. When he heard him asking for money, he immediately asked: "Two hundred thousand, what do you want so much for?"
Zhou Yan hesitated immediately. He had never lied to his parents. At this moment, Xihe called him in the bathroom to get some hair care oil. Zhou Yan said "ok" without thinking, and froze after answering.
Father Zhou's eyes widened: "You have a girl over there?"
Zhou Yan suddenly felt guilty: "Dad, please listen to my explanation..."
Father Zhou was so angry that his head was smoking, and he said angrily: "Zhou Yan, honestly, why do you want money? Have you bullied other girls? You..." Thinking of that possibility, his breathing suddenly became unsteady, stinky boy, stinky boy Boy!
Mother Zhou next to her turned pale when she saw his angry face. She was so anxious: "Old Zhou, what happened?"
Father Zhou gritted his teeth: "Zhou Yan, you stinky boy, how did I teach you when you were a child, huh?! You actually dare to do such a thing to me, you are so mad at me! Just wait for me, you boy!" hang up the phone.
Zhou Yan looked at the phone with a confused look on his face.
However, within two minutes, one million was transferred to his mobile phone.
Accompanied by a message: Please compensate me well! If this girl doesn't take good care of herself and hurts her body, let's see how I deal with you!
A question mark slowly appeared on Zhou Yan's head, what did his father do?
"Did your dad agree?"
Xihe took the essential oil, squeezed out a pump, rubbed it with both hands, and grabbed it into his hair.
I haven't taken care of it for a week, and my hair looked a lot frizzy. Now I used essential oil to comb it, and it suddenly glowed softly under the light, making it very smooth.
Zhou Yan nodded, showed her the balance, and asked, "Is it enough?"
