Chapter 24 Homeless ③

After leaving Dopamine's store, Hua Xiaoqin asked quietly: "What does this mean? Someone is causing trouble for me? That eighth wife of the Gao family?"

"Is there anyone else besides her?"

Hua Xiaoqin nodded and came up with a plan: "You can only be a thief the day before yesterday, but there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. How about we put on a play today, and you can send the things back first, and I will take a walk again. In the evening Go home again and lure the snake out of its hole?"

Hua Xiaomao frowned: "No, it's too dangerous."

"That's because you don't know what I'm capable of now. I can run away even if there are three evolutionaries. I don't take these trashy fish and shrimps seriously at all."

Hua Xiaomao curled his lips and said nothing, but he did not relax at all.

Hua Xiaoqin turned around and looked around, pointing to her brother an old man with white hair walking beside the stall.

"This man is a master of makeup. He is actually thirty-two years old and has great finger skills..."

"He is in the same group as the customer who is looking at the goods in the shop opposite. The customer is left-handed and just got a bag of salt..."

"They found out that I was observing and were ready to run away to see me catch them all..."

Hua Xiaomao was listening in ecstasy, but when he realized something was wrong, he wanted to stop him: "Wait a minute..."

I saw something whirring and sliding around in the air, and the gangs of thieves that Hua Xiaoqin just pointed out all fell down, screaming ouch ouch.

Hua Xiaoqin raised her hand and caught the boomerangs one by one.

Hua Xiaomao was stunned: This guy shot too fast, he didn't see clearly...

This was the first time that the three-knife style appeared in a shelter, and it became Hua Xiaoqin's personal signature for a long time.

Miraculously, the boomerang slid around in the air, avoiding innocent people, and only hit the thieves.

The boomerang was highly poisonous, and several of the injured instantly slumped to the ground. This was the result of Hua Xiaoqin not daring to use the poison doctor skill for fear of injuring others.

The market immediately turned into a mess, with some shaking people, some shouting in pain, some shouting that they were coming to catch the Hua family siblings, some taking the opportunity to steal, and some yelling to catch the thief when they found themselves being robbed.

We don't control this place... Hua Xiaomao didn't have a chance to say the last part of his sentence. He heard his sister yelling out: "Come here! You've been holding it in for so long, let me have a good time today!"

Hua Xiaomao's heart stirred, and some indistinct thoughts flashed through his mind. His instinct had already made him grab Hua Xiaoqin's hand one step ahead of his brain: "Okay, okay, don't cause trouble again! Let's run away..."

"Why are you running? It's not like we can't defeat them? I have to let you have a clearer understanding of my sister's abilities..."

Hua Xiaomao smiled bitterly: "This is the territory of the three major gangs. You have offended everyone. Where should we trade in the future?"

"Then do you believe me now? It's really okay for me to go alone!"

"Okay, okay, I believe in you, okay? My ancestor..."

When Hua Xiaomao left the West District, his security team pager had been blown up. Needless to say, they must have been recognized by someone and asked the security captain to question them.

Hua Xiaomao ignored him.

He drove his pickup truck home at lightning speed.

Hua Xiaoqin was not in the car and said she would walk back slowly by herself, pretending to quarrel with him and take the opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole. Ask him to deliver the goods home if he is worried and then come out to find her.

This guy is getting more and more annoying!

When did she learn to use a boomerang? He also said that he had been holding it in for a long time... so Hua Xiaoqin had been hiding it all the time, and even his brother didn't know?
  Plus surviving birds of prey, returning during a major drop in temperature, and discovering prey under the frozen soil...

There are more and more mysteries surrounding her sister, and each one points to the fact that makes Hua Xiaomao's heart beat faster: She is most likely to have become an evolver...

Hua Xiaoqin deliberately slowed down and walked on the road.

The straight-line distance between the west side of the free market and the east side where she lives is about seven or eight kilometers, and you have to go up and down stairs. It would take an ordinary person several hours to walk.

But since she is pretending to be a single girl who was scolded by her brother, she shouldn't take the ordinary path.

Hua Xiaoqin deliberately looked for a sparsely populated alley, seemingly wandering aimlessly to relax. In fact, he is fully vigilant and constantly uses identification skills to explore the surrounding environment.

Then she didn't know that because of some troubles in the free market, her combat power and latest changes had been spread back to the ears of Miss Gao Mangao.

The person who followed the Hua brothers and sisters refused to continue doing it, saying that the risk was too high, which made Goldman very angry.

The eldest lady thought about it and decided that it would be safer to let the big gang take action. Although Hua Xiaoqin's brother is the security captain, there is no direct affiliation between the security captain and the gangs, and it is impossible to control all gangs. She just needs to ask the big gang that is hostile to Hua Xiaomao.

Hua Xiaoqin doesn't understand all this.

All she knew was that she had been wandering aimlessly for an hour, with not a single ghost behind her.

What a waste of effort!

But since there was nothing wrong, Hua Xiaoqin did not go home immediately after walking back to the East District. Instead, she called her brother and said that she didn't encounter anything on the way, so she went to the medical station to work first.

When the temperature drops in winter, the medical stations are filled with old people and children who come to see people with colds. Even Teacher Ji, who was on duty in the laboratory, came out to help diagnose and prescribe medicine.

Hua Xiaoqin didn't know anything about medical care, so she didn't take up space at the reception desk. She consciously retreated to the laboratory.

There was no one in the laboratory, so Hua Xiaoqin quickly seized the opportunity and took out the materials she had just obtained. The materials were all bought at the free market in the morning, and they were processed into intermediate poisonous potions before they were warmed up.

This is the second time Hua Xiaoqin has prepared and purified intermediate pharmaceuticals in the laboratory. She has gained much more experience and is much more efficient. Before get off work, all the potions have been purified.

Just as she was about to start cultivating grass seeds for detoxification, the hunting team's pager blared.

She lowered her head and saw, oh my god, the pager turned on the red light again!

Hua Xiaoqin didn't take it to heart. She put the seeds into the petri dish leisurely, sprinkled the nutrient solution on it, wrote the date and time of cultivation on the label, and then took out her pager to check.

I saw several emergency calls scrolling in the pager's message box.

This time it seems that something is really going on!

What this first message says is that the garrison that is welcoming the caravan has been attacked by a wandering tribe, and all of them need to be mobilized to enter a state of combat readiness...

The second message came immediately after the first one, saying that all hunting team members were on standby to support the garrison at any time.

The third message was sent less than half a minute after the second message. It said that the first to fifth teams of the hunting team would set off immediately and go with the main force of the legion for support, while the rest of the hunting team stayed at the shelter.

A tribe of homeless people? Welcome the caravan?
  Isn't that the garrison regiment that Gao Qing led two days ago that was killed?
  Isn't Gao Qing a master tactician? How could he be defeated for no reason? Didn't Team 10 give a warning at that time?

What a bunch of trash...

No, could this be a trap? Attract her to the meeting point, and then take the opportunity to ambush her on the road...

Since it was so urgent, there was no reason why Hua Xiaomao didn't get the news. He should have called her cell phone!

When I pulled out my phone, I saw it was out of power and turned off.

Lost the chain at the critical moment...

Mobile phones in the wasteland era are really unreliable.

Hua Xiaoqin's heart couldn't help but lift.

Although she couldn't stand what the Gao family did from top to bottom, the shelter was her first home after coming to the wasteland.

All the people in the shelter are his fellow villagers.

Anyone who dares to bully someone in the shelter is quarreling with her and slapping her in the face.

Hua Xiaoqin thought for a while, but was not ready to return to guard the shelter as the pager instructed. Instead, he took inventory of the weapons in his hands, took all the protective equipment, and headed for the exit of the shelter.

 Nomad = savage, the official term is vagrant, the people derogatorily call each other a savage. The reverse is also true. The homeless tribe calls the people in the shelter "goblins."
