Chapter 229 The Night Walk

"Leaving is the only thing I can do and my only resistance." Jing Xiran's eyes were already filled with tears when he spoke.

After hearing this, Makino nodded. This is someone else's family business, and it is also someone else's choice.

Being a listener is his best choice now.

"So uncle, if you have the ability to leave this city, I hope you will take me with you. I will pay you the same money as the transportation company." Jing Xiran looked sincere.

"Am I your third choice?" Makino asked suspiciously, "Is that what the transport company does to send people to other cities?"

"One ticket is 15." Jing Xiran said in a deep voice, his tone full of displeasure.

15?
When Makino heard the price, surprise appeared on his face.

15 tickets, even if ordinary people in Nanjiang City do not eat or drink, it will take three years to save such a ticket.

Not to mention daily consumption expenses, 15 federal currency is at least five or six years for an ordinary person to save money.

"Then have you saved enough money now?" Makino asked an untimely question.

Jing Xiran pursed her lower lip deeply, the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "I saved enough last year."

"Then why do you still ask me for help?" Muye frowned, logically speaking, Jing Xiran could leave now if she had saved enough money, and it would be superfluous to ask him to take her with him.

"First of all, the tickets of the transportation companies are quite expensive, which is out of the normal price level, and secondly, I don't trust these companies very much."

Jing Xiran gritted her teeth and put on a ferocious expression.

"Alone outside the city, whether I will be able to reach other cities safely is still unknown."

Looking at the rich expressions on Jing Xiran's immature face, Makino couldn't help laughing at the face under the bandage.

"As for asking uncle for your help, it was the result of my thinking all night last night."

"I confirmed one thing in the morning."

When he said this, Jing Xiran leaned out and looked at Mu Ye with a half-smile: "Uncle, you said that you escaped from Nanjiang City with the fleeing team."

"However, I went to inquire, and there are no people who have escaped from other cities in the past few days."

"In other words, uncle, you traveled hundreds of kilometers alone and came from Nanjiang City."

Jing Xiran's face was full of excitement that he had discovered some big secret.

When Makino heard the words, he realized that he had indeed slipped his tongue.

On the way from Nanjiang City, he really didn't even see a single person, let alone a large number of refugees.

"Then you are not afraid that I will harm you on the road?" Makino's voice was serious, trying to scare Jing Xiran.

"I'm not afraid." Jing Xiran shook his head with a determined expression.

"It was already ready when I brought you back last night, uncle."

"If you really want to harm me, there is a line at the top of the stairs as the first line of defense." Jing Xiran pointed to the platform at the corner of the stairs.

Then he stretched out his five fingers, counted and said, "I put thumbtacks all over the floor in front of my door."

"And equipped with pepper water, anti-wolf spray, stun gun."

"I have also prepared the most important contraceptive pill."

"Wait." Makino interrupted Jing Xiran and asked helplessly: "I can understand everything else, what's with the contraceptive pill?"

"If I can't resist, I can only accept it silently." Jing Xiran nodded embarrassedly.

"But now it seems that you are a good uncle, uncle"

"Except for the first time, uncle, you have never looked at me directly, probably because you are not very interested in young girls like me."

"I'm really not interested." Makino shook his hands and looked at Jing Xiran.

"In the near future, I may continue to live with you temporarily, and I will pay the rent every day. After I finish my work, I may consider taking you to another city."

Makino frowned and pondered for a moment before speaking again: "If things go well, I can ask someone to send you away."

"Really?" Jing Xiran suddenly stood up.

"This is the reward." Makino's voice was flat.

"Then Lagou?" Jing Xiran stretched out his little finger of his left hand to make an agreement with Muye Lagou, regardless of the reward.

Looking at Jing Xiran's outstretched left hand, Makino shrugged his right shoulder in embarrassment.

Seeing this, Jing Xiran realized what was wrong, and changed hands embarrassingly.

After the matter was settled, Jing Xiran's spirits perked up and he went into the kitchen excitedly to cook a big meal for Muye.

Dinner in the evening is very simple, fried fish steak, stewed fish soup, sweet and sour fish steak.

All fish, no green vegetables at all.

The southeast of Dongxing City is adjacent to the sea, and a large number of fish catches are sent to the city every day, which also leads to the ridiculously low prices of some common seafood in the city.

It is four or five times cheaper than fresh vegetables.

Of course, this is also a geographical reason that has caused the prices of fresh vegetables in Dongxing City to remain high.

After a simple dinner, Makino went back to the room early and lay down on the bed to rest. Although he was in the room, Makino's mental power swept the whole house including the street outside the house from time to time.

Until the early hours of the morning, Makino confirmed Jing Xi who was sleeping soundly in the upstairs room, and then he got up cautiously and opened the door.

When passing by the living room, Makino subconsciously looked at the quiet and dark stairway, and then turned out along the window.

In the early hours of the morning, Dongxing City seemed to be still asleep, and the neon lights complemented each other, dyeing the night sky that should have been dark with a color that did not belong to it.

Following the route recorded in memory, Makino moved quickly while dodging passers-by.

After arriving at the Wutong Avenue that he passed by in the morning, Makino looked in the right direction and accelerated his speed again.

While Jing Xiran said that the affluent area was deep, Makino couldn't help but be amazed at the clean and tidy streets of this affluent area filled with all kinds of strange vehicles.

Compared with the streets in the civilian area, the streets in the rich area are extremely wide. It seems that the luxury cars of the rich can drive on this kind of road. The asphalt road under the feet even seems to be polished. smooth.

From time to time, Makino could see some manor-like gardens, and he didn't use his mental power to scan casually.

Who knows if there will be awakened people who can perceive their own spiritual power here.

After wandering around in the rich area for a while, Makino finally arrived at the place he wanted to come this time.

Looking at the huge building with dozens of floors in front of him, although it is already past twelve o'clock in the morning, Makino can see traces of light through the glass wall of the building, it seems that there are still people working in the building at this time .

Taking a quick glance at the large red characters "Dongliang Group" inlaid in front of the glass wall on the top floor of the building, Makino quickly hid himself in a corner.

The left hand hidden under his wide hooded robe was lightly squeezed, and Makino's left arm was entangled in a continuous gray thread in horror, and at the same time his back began to twist.

The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped several degrees.
