Chapter 18 Doomsday Convenience Store (18)

"jingle--"

At the first knock of the door at night, a familiar face, a man in red, entered the store.

The man in red leads a little girl, who is pink and cute, and holds a doll in her arms.

Xiong Qingqing noticed that the man in red was wearing gloves, probably because he was afraid that his daughter would be infected by him.

"You are here, is this your daughter?"

In front of him, Xiong Qingqing was not afraid of revealing anything.

"Well, her name is Yoyo, Yoyo, sister." The man in red's voice became hoarse, and he couldn't speak clearly.

Youyou hid behind the man in red, "Mom, why is this sister different from us? It's weird...I'm afraid..."

Mother?

Xiong Qingqing was stunned, and the man in red explained: "She keeps calling me mom."

"No wonder he was dressed as a woman." Xu Lingze said.

Youyou blinked her big watery eyes, and shook the arm of the man in red, "Mom, why are we here? Don't you tell me not to go out?"

"Yuyou, my mother has something to tell my sister, can we go back later?"

After the man in red finished speaking, he looked at Xiong Qingqing, "Little girl, do me a favor."

"What are you busy with?"

"I hope you can help me take Yoyo to Building No. [-]. His uncle works there. He can help take care of Yoyo in the future. I'm like this... I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of her for too long..."

"Mom, don't leave me behind!"

After hearing this, Yoyo hugged his leg and started crying.

Xiong Qingqing waved his hand, "No, I can't stay here long, I'm leaving tomorrow."

"Then you go today, right now." The man in red looked serious.

"Really not, I..."

The man in red suddenly took out a Type 92 and pointed it at Xiong Qingqing's head.

"Little girl, I'm sorry, I'll help you look around the store tonight."

Xiong Qingqing was taken aback, and then became very angry, "Why are you like this!"

Seeing this scene, Xu Lingze was also taken aback, and almost pressed the decision button.

"I just apologized. Building No. [-] is not far from here, it only takes an hour's journey." The man in red said so, but there was no guilt on his face.

"Why don't you go yourself?"

"I can't get into Hall [-] now."

"But, I..."

Xiong Qingqing still wanted to continue to evade, but the man in red pointed at her head, "If all goes well, you will be back in less than three hours. Rather than talking nonsense with me here, you might as well start now."

"I……"

Xiong Qingqing regretted it a little. If she had known earlier, she would not have refused directly, but would have postponed it until tomorrow night.

The man in red took out a piece of paper from his pocket and put it on the counter, "This is the map of Hall No. [-]."

Xiong Qingqing glanced at the piece of paper, feeling very resistant in his heart, shook his head, and just about to say something nice, the man in red suddenly shot the ceiling.

After a bang, some dust fell from the ceiling.

Xiong Qingqing was still in shock, while Xu Lingze was holding the decision button tightly, his hands were already breaking out in cold sweat.

After a mental struggle, Xiong Qingqing nodded, "If I can't do well, in case your daughter..."

"I believe you."

After the man in red finished speaking, he touched Yoyo's head with his rubber gloved hand, "Youyo, go to stay with your uncle for two days first, and mother will pick you up in a few days."

"Trust me...but I don't believe in myself. Since I came here, I haven't left the convenience store."

"jingle--"

The doorbell rang again, and an uncle entered the door, and immediately backed out after seeing this scene.

"I'll wait for you here until dawn tomorrow. When I come back, I'll see the response written by Uncle Yoyo himself. If you want to take something, pack it now."

After the man in red finished speaking, Xu Lingze said: "He won't kill you, otherwise Yoyo will never be able to go to uncle's side, make a deal with him and hold him back first."

The man in red smiled wryly, his eyes were red, "Little girl, I'm really sorry, there's nothing I can do..."

"Ok."

Xiong Qingqing took a look at Yoyo, then began to pack up, taking some tools.

Xu Lingze sighed, it seemed that Xiong Qingqing decided to help.

"You can't go in this dress," said the man in red.

Xiong Qingqing looked down, because this employee uniform could probably block the virus, so she didn't take it off, but switched places with her coat.

"There is a rule in our store that clerks must wear employee uniforms to serve customers. You..."

The man in red pointed to the ceiling, "It's okay, isn't there another one on top?"

Yoyo cried hard, the man in red smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry Yoyo, Dad... Mom will definitely pick you up, be obedient, okay?"

He sent Xiong Qingqing to the door, and pushed Yoyo to her side.

Yoyo took his hand and waved to him, "Dad, you must come and pick me up."

The man in red didn't hold back, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

It was the first time in a long time that he had heard her call her "Daddy," as she had called him Mommy since his mother died.

The man in red asked for a key from Xiong Qingqing, and handed her the 92-style in his hand, "You take this, maybe it can help you."

Xiong Qingqing looked at the heavy thing in his hand, "Aren't you afraid that I'll regret it now?"

The man in red took out another handful, "Do you think I'll be afraid? Anyway, I'm already like this, so what else can't be done?"

Xiong Qingqing took a deep breath, looked at the dark night, and opened the map.

The map drawing is extremely simple. If it weren't for the words on it, she would even think it was a child's graffiti, but that's fine, it's simple and clear.

"Little girl, don't look back no matter what on the road. Except for Yoyo, don't respond to anyone talking to you. Hold her hand, she is familiar with the outside world." The man in red instructed.

"Thank you ha..."

Xiong Qingqing took Yoyo's hand, and Yoyo waved again to the man in red, "I will listen to my uncle."

The man in red smiled, "Father knows that Yoyo is the most obedient child."
-
A young girl and two girls stepped into the night like this.

Xiong Qingqing took the flashlight and illuminated the road ahead.

Occasionally, cats meowed on the road, shrill and abrupt, which would always scare her into panic.

"Sister, why are you so timid?"

"Who said I'm timid? I'm just afraid that something will come out and hurt you."

Xiong Qingqing was a little embarrassed, since he came to this place, his nerves have been very sensitive.

"Sister, in fact, there was no bullet in the gun that my father took out later."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Dad was here just now, so I didn't say anything, sister, you can send me back, I don't want to part with dad..." Yoyo's voice was a little choked up.
