Chapter 8 Lin Fan lost three dollars

Lin Fan just left, and the captain of the patrol team came to the tall soldier with two panda eyes last night: "How is the situation? How many people encountered a mutant mouse attack last night?"

The captain's tone was filled with resentment and he was very impatient to speak.

Last night, he reported the important news that the "rat tide may erupt" overnight and proposed that "in the morning, you can determine the possibility of a rat tide explosion by asking residents who buy water in the outer city."

He thought he would be rewarded by his leader, but he didn't know that the leader, who was disturbed by his dream, asked him to work hard in the morning and work overtime to get the matter perfectly done before resting.

When his colleague who came to take over in the morning found out, he laughed at him a few words, saying that he was making a big deal and asking for trouble.

I'm just sad. Isn't it good to sleep in a quilt and hold my wife in my arms? I will never do such a thankless stupid thing again. The rat tide love breaks out and it will be like death!

The tall soldier saw that the captain was in a wrong mood and quickly replied: "Until now, four reliable messages have been collected, all of which are incidents of mutant mice actively attacking residents in the outer city."

The captain continued to ask: "Who provided it? How did they describe it?"

The tall soldier was stunned for a moment.

It was the first time he had done such a survey. He had no experience and thought that just by doing it like before, he could do it, but who knew that the captain would ask the details.

And the captain was obviously angry...

"Uh, uh..., the four people who provided the news were all mud legs from the outer city. If you describe it in detail..."

The tall soldier tried his best to recall his memories, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, "There are two common characteristics worth noting. The mice that took the initiative to attack people all had red eyes and were all very big."

At this moment, he was very grateful to Lin Fan.

It was Lin Fan who told him that the mouse’s eyes were red and that it was very big.

The captain nodded: "How old is it."

"Yes..." The tall soldier subconsciously stretched out his hand to gesture to the captain. He saw the captain glaring at him, and the tall soldier blurted out, "It's as big as my head."

"knew."

The captain turned around and left, leaving the tall soldier alone stunned.

The captain left the water sales office, walked a few steps into the inner city gate, and saluted respectfully at a tall and thin old man in the secluded place behind the door:

"Mr. Yao, I have found out clearly. I have summarized the information from various water sales offices in the inner city. Yesterday, 143 mutant mice attacked people on their own initiative, causing 5 deaths and 18 injuries. The common feature of these mice is that their eyes are red and their size is generally large."

"How old is it?" Before the tall and thin old man could speak, a girl standing next to him suddenly spoke.

The captain subconsciously stretched out his hand to gesture, but he felt it was inappropriate, so he could only point to his head: "It's as big as my head."

The girl was so excited: "Oh, that's really not small."

Mr. Yao nodded: "It seems that the rat tide is about to explode. Captain Hao, you have made a great contribution, and I will give you your contribution to the city lord."

Captain Hao was immediately overjoyed and suddenly stopped sleeping, and was excited to die for his confidant.

Mr. Yao did not look at Captain Hao anymore, and looked at the girl beside him and said, "Yanran, do you have any ideas about this rat tide?"

The girl named Wang Yanran nodded like pounding garlic, and her ponytails shook her left and right on her back: "Teacher, do you still remember the rat killing poison I made last time?"

Mr. Yao's hand shook and almost tore off his beard: "It was the rat that ate it. Not only did it not die, but he saw who bites whom he would not let go of, even his kind?

To be honest, if I hadn't asked you before going out today, I would have suspected that the mutant rat bites people last night was caused by your rat poison."

Wang Yanran waved her hand: "Don't care about those details. Although my rat poison cannot kill rats, since the rat tide is imminent, I think I can take the initiative to feed the rats, and maybe it can trigger the rat tide in advance."

Mr. Yao's eyes lit up and he felt that Wang Yanran's proposal was worth a try.

If the rat tide can explode at a specific point in time according to their wishes, there are many benefits.

Not only do you have to wait nervously for the rat tide to explode, but you will not let the rat tide explode at night, resulting in unfavorable weather.

"Yanran is so smart. I'll go back and discuss this with your father. By the way, does your rat poison make fast?"

"It's easy to make. And I still have a lot of stock."

Mr. Yao laughed with relief: "Okay, I'll go back to see the city lord now. Yanran, go with me, your father will be very happy to see you."

Wang Yanran nodded, but before leaving, she suddenly reached out and pointed outside the city gate and asked Captain Hao: "What's wrong with the woman kneeling on the roadside?"

Captain Hao was stunned, looked out, and withdrew his gaze and grinned: "I don't have money, I just want to drink water, it's common in the outer city."

After explaining, she did not forget to shoot a rainbow fart, "Miss Wang, you are so kind. You can notice such things. Why don't I give her two dollars? Then tell her that you gave it to her and she will be grateful."

"No need." Wang Yanran suddenly waved her hand in disgust, "You misunderstood. I think she was kneeling there and crying, which was very annoying."

Captain Hao stayed on the spot and waited for several seconds before asking tentatively: "Why should I find someone to take her away?"

Mr. Yao frowned slightly: "Yanran, don't be too troublesome. It's more important to go to see your father with me and discuss the matter of rat poison."

Wang Yanran smiled and indeed stopped talking about women.

However, she did not follow Mr. Yao immediately, but shouted to a young man sitting on a bench not far away: "Hey? Do you want to go back together? It's a bit cloudy this day, maybe it will rain in a while."

The young man turned around and said, "What are you doing? My name is Wang Teng. It's your cousin. Remember to shout in the future."

"Hmph, it's almost the same for you to call me cousin." Wang Yanran snorted disdainfully, "Aren't you born half a month older than me? I have been practicing martial arts for so long and I was an intermediate martial artist last month. You can't beat me with one hand. What qualifications do you have to be my cousin?"

The violent woman... The young Wang Teng curled his lips, waved his hand and turned his head: "You can go back with Mr. Yao to find my uncle first, and I'll sit there for a while."

Of course, Wang Yanran didn't leave. She walked to Wang Teng with a curious look on her face, leaned down and whispered: "Auntie said you have come to the city gate every morning to sit here. Are you hiding something from me?"

Wang Teng didn't want to answer: "Tsk, little girl movies, you don't have to worry about my business."

Wang Yanran's eyes rolled: "Will you fall in love with a girl in the outer city?" I'll help you get kidnapped."

Wang Teng rolled his eyes.

Seeing that Wang Teng ignored her, Wang Yanran stomped her feet and followed Mr. Yao angrily.

...

On the other hand, Lin Fan walked to the shop selling bread with two dollars, "a piece of black bread."

"Okay, get it, one dollar."

Lin Fan took the black bread and looked at the row of white bread that was much smaller on the shelves.

"Come on one?" The clerk is very good at observing his expression and taking advantage of the situation to promote sales.

Lin Fan gritted his teeth and nodded slightly: "Come on one."

He originally wanted to buy white bread, but he used to be a poor boy and could not even eat black bread with his stomach, let alone buy white bread.

So in order not to arouse suspicion, he had to use a piece of black bread to cover up when buying white bread.

The clerk handed Lin Fan a white bread, which was only one-quarter of the black bread, and was wrapped in a plastic bag, which was very delicate.

"It costs three dollars in total."

When I bought the water just now, the water salesperson happened to get three dollars back. Lin Fan put the money in his pocket and reached out to pay the money.

But he took a break.

The attributes of [Murphy's Necklace] flashed through Lin Fan's mind.

"I'm fucking..."

Lin Fan wanted to cry without tears. Is this side effect so unreasonable?!

"What's going on? Are you not rich?" Seeing that Lin Fan's trouser pocket was so deep, the clerk immediately stretched his face and raised his voice, which caused the soldiers on duty to turn their heads and look over.

Lin Fan quickly brought a smile and handed over three pieces of paper money: "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now. Give it three pieces."

The clerk changed his face and immediately smiled after taking the money: "Come often in the future."

Lin Fan carried the water with his bread in his arms, turned around and looked at the stone road that had come from the water sales office. He saw the crowded people in dust, and where could he find his own three dollars...

"Oh~" Lin Fan sighed with heartache and walked away.

"Huh? Three dollars." The man with a short head, strong body, and a dense, curly hair, bent down and picked up the money from the ground, and said happily to the clerk in front of him, "A black bread, a white bread."
