* get used to something and it inevitably becomes second nature
If you say you are royalty from the island country, then that makes you one? If you say you are the future emperor, then that makes you one? If you ask for someone’s help, do you expect people to just help you?
Do you think everyone under the sky is your mother?
Shao Qing resisted the urge to roll her eyes and tried to make herself look more friendly: “Are you finished? You can go out after you’re finished.”
Shiramizu Mochizuki felt aggrieved when he heard that. He didn’t quite understand. Didn’t he say everything clearly? Yet, why is Shao Qing driving him away? He quickly said: “I know that master is a very good person and I know that the master is actually very reluctant to see so many ordinary people suffer. I am also the same. If master is willing to help me take back the things that were rightfully mine, I want to change the whole country. I have suffered bitterly and I don’t want ordinary people to be treated as items or livestock to be slaughtered anymore. But with my current status, I won’t be able to change anything.”
He looked at Shao Qing with his expectant eyes and then said:” Master, don’t you want this country to change for the better? As long as the current Showa Emperor and the Prime Minister are in office, nothing will change. Instead, it will become even worse.”
Shao Qing looked lazily with her tender jade in her arms: “Why does it concern me? I’m not a native person. Once I’ve finished what I’ve come here to do, I will leave. This country has always been pressuring me, so I won’t mind if the island country becomes submerged.”
The dumbfounded Shiramizu Mochizuki: …
He thought that after these days of observation, he had already figured out Shao Qing’s temper… Why didn’t everything follow the script!
He stayed silent for a long time before saying: “If the master is willing to help me, I am willing to ask the master to be my national teacher after success. Of course, master will always be my master.” He said that in an ambiguous manner, his eyes hinting at some passion as he looked at Shao Qing.
Shao Qing laid down, does she really look like a hungry ghost?
She raised her finger and shook it: “One, I’m just an ordinary person, at most a capable superhuman. I can’t help you with such a major event. Second, I don’t want to be the nation’s teacher and I am reluctant to be your master. You can just leave the basin and go out quickly. If you don’t go out, I can ‘send’ you out. ”
“Please master, think more about it.” Shiramizu Mochizuki didn’t pester her anymore. He left the basin and went out. Yan Qiyue embraced Shao Qing and asked curiously: “Why?”
He is quite familiar with Shao Qing. If she is really not interested at all, Shao Qing will refuse at once. She would not ask for more explanation.
“I actually really want someone to stand up and change this country. But as I said, what can one person’s strength do? Speaking of it, I’m nothing more than a strong superhuman, I can’t help him at all. Of course, the more important thing is that I care more about you than these people. The key for us now is to go to Mount Fuji and find medicine for Er Dai. People must know their limits. They should not worry about things they can’t manage.” Shao Qing stretched her back and leaned on the pillow, whispering: “If Er Dai is cured, if I can help him with something, I won’t be stingy.”
Yan Qiyue, out of his epiphany, immediately said: “So it’s like that.”
“Aren’t we going to be passing by Fukiage soon? Maybe, we can go over and take a look. We can treat it like a leisurely trip. We have to go through it anyway.” Shao Qing said with a laugh: “Actually, there is another very important reason. I don’t believe his words. Saying he wants to change the country for ordinary people, who would believe that? He is clearly a selfish person.”
Yan Qiyue agreed. After all, Shiramizu Mochizuki had many similarities with him, such as their selfishness. Of course, he was most concerned about Shao Qing now.
It was also because of this that Yan Qiyue is quite sure that Shao Qing will not have any feelings towards Shiramizu Mochizuki. Saying it in a nastier way, it’s like two pieces of clothing of the same style. The one you wear, regardless of material , the details, or all aspects, are better than those sold on the shelf. Will you take off this one and wear something that’s worse?
Normal people wouldn’t, right?
So with this jewel in front, Shiramizu Mochizuki shouldn’t even dream of hooking up with Shao Qing in this life! There is no opening at all!
Early in the morning the next day, Shiramizu Mochizuki still behaved relatively calmly, but he often pestered Shao Qing. Sometimes he would intentionally come over, sometimes with no intentions.
Pestering and pestering, they soon arrived at Fukiage.
Before going into Fukiage, Shiramizu Mochizuki thought about a lot of ways to cover up his appearance. After all, some people would recognize him in Fukiage.
As the island’s largest survivor base, Fukiage’s survivor base was obviously more formal than other survivor bases.
For example, the procedures for entering the city were a lot more troublesome.
As per usual, ordinary people had to enter the observation room to be observed for one night. So, Shao Qing and their family of three entered the city normally.
Fukiage’s survivor base was very large, it was only smaller than Jing Du by a little. It was bigger than the survivor base of S city.
Inside looked a lot more stringent as well. At least it was not like those smaller survivor bases that had abusers and violent scenes everywhere.
But it wasn’t much better.
How tall can a tall person be out of a group of short people?
The first thing they needed to do after entering the base was to find a place to stay. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Shao Qing was too lazy to cook. She said: “Let’s find a restaurant to have a meal before we go to find a place to live. Let’s try out some local cuisines on the island.”
“Okay. ” Yan Qiyue and Er Dai expressed. Whatever Shao Qing says goes.
Then they went to find a place to eat. After walking around for a while, Shao Qing found a restaurant that looked bigger than the rest and walked in.
There were a lot of people sitting inside. Shao Qing found a table and then sat down, immediately a waiter came over: “What do these three distinguished guests want to eat?”
Shao Qing asked, “What famous dishes do you have here?”
The waiter hurriedly answered: “Whatever you want, we have. This is the menu, you can check it out.”
After Shao Qing took the menu, the temperature around her whole body dropped. The dish listed at the top was still quite normal, with various kinds of sashimi.
But there was a list on the right side with dishes listed with a very high price tag. Just looking at it would infuriate a person. The dish name on the first line was green pepper and shredded pork. It looked normal, but there was a row of small characters below which says it was taken from the leg meat of a girl under the age of 18, pure and natural without spices.
Continuing down, there was still some sort of feast which was to put all parts of a person on the table with various cooking methods.
Feeling her nausea, she suddenly felt that even if Shiramizu Mochizuki was selfish, at least he did have that kind of thought and wanted to change this country.
When people and livestock appeared on the same menu, Shao Qing’s first feeling was not anger or shock, but deep despair.
She didn’t know of other countries, but after the end of the world, leaving China and coming to the island country, this was the real end of the world, the end of humans, the end of humanity.
If Shiramizu Mochizuki can really do as he said, Shao Qing was willing to help him. Not for anything, just for her conscience that has not been completely wiped out.
Shao Qing, fighting back the urge to lift the table, left. She walked while self-deprecating: “This country is too dark and horrible. If we stay any longer, I’m afraid I’ll become crazy.”
Yan Qiyue had to comfort her: “We will soon be able to leave the island country and go back to China. If you feel repressed, I … cough, and Er Dai can accompany you to vent.”
Don’t think crookedly. When he said vent, he just wanted to kill all those people Shao Qing didn’t like, then leave.
Shao Qing didn’t state her decision immediately. She had to observe Shiramizu Mochizuki again. Once she has assessed the goods, then she would consider whether to help him or not.
At least at this time, Shao Qing really wanted to help Shiramizu Mochizuki. With Shiramizu Mochizuki beside her, he was qualified for that scheme. At least, he was just passable for all aspects, suitable for being the island country’s “saviour”.
She had already figured it out. The worst case, after their trip to Mt. Fuji to solve Er Dai’s problem and before she left, she could just find some way to kill the Showa emperor and Prime Minister.
Then Shiramizu Mochizuki could clean up the remaining mess.
Shao Qing quickly rented a place to stay. It was a kind of small two-story building with a window on the second floor facing a small garden. The scenery wasn’t bad.
Of course, the rent of such a house must be very high. In fact, the landlord said that there must be a rental for at least a month or else they wouldn’t take her business.
So, Shao Qing rented it for a month first. She wasn’t lacking in crystals anyways.
After settling down, Shao Qing cooked meals for Er Dai and Yan Qiyue. She had no appetite. When she wanted to eat, she felt sick.
For this reason, Yan Qiyue specially chatted with her to try to make her a little happier.
Finally, Shao Qing, hugging one on the left and one on the right said: “We will stay in Fukiage for two more days to observe the situation before leaving. During this time, we could also hunt zombies and replenish crystals.”
After all, a lot of crystal nuclei have been spent along the way. In addition, with their group leading the way, they rarely encounter zombies.
It stands to reason that the island country with people densely packed, the number of zombies should be quite large. However, their luck just seemed to explode. Since the whole time, they have rarely encountered zombies, not even the occasional encounter with a few scattered ones.
Shao Qing sorted out the bed, then fell asleep with the two in her arms. Life also needs to be compared. Compared to those poor people, hugging a person to her left and right and having no worries about eating and drinking, she was just living the life.
In the early morning of the next day, Shao Qing picked all three of them up. She arranged the rooms for them and then said: “These two days you will live here. Do not try to go out because me and my family will be going out to hunt zombies. If you are walking around, no one will be able to guarantee your safety, you got it?”
All three nodded honestly.
When the people dispersed, Shao Qing specially brought Shiramizu Mochizuki out: “I know you are a smart man, but under absolute strength your brain is just for show. I know you will definitely go out. Just remember that when you go out, you have to remember that you are just an ordinary person no matter how clever you are. Don’t make trouble.”
Shiramizu Mochizuki had a very enchanting look: ” Master, are you worried about me? ”
” Go to bed. ” Shao Qing completely ignored him and got ready to pack up to go out with Yan Qiyue and Er Dai.
It’s better to go out earlier. After all, they don’t know where there are many zombies. They will have to go out and try to find some information. Then after they go kill the zombies, she could fill up her small vault.
The ignored Shiramizu Mochizuki: ……
After being beaten for a long time, Shiramizu Mochizuki became accustomed to it. He was taking pleasure in having to tease Shao Qing and was already used to it.
Every day if he did not provoke her and get a few hits a day, it would not be considered complete. Sometimes Shao Qing would think if he was a M.
Verbally abused masochism?
No wonder Yan Qiyue always said that Shiramizu Mochizuki is very similar to him, he really is very similar…
Shao Qing was also used to combating Shiramizu Mochizuki. After bullying Shiramizu Mochizuki, she felt a lot better.
Shao Qing packed up the things and then told the three people in the family to have the meals she had already prepared in the kitchen. They can eat them when they are warmed. She made two meals for the three. This way even if she doesn’t return in the afternoon, they will not be hungry.
After everything was ready, she took Yan Qiyue and Er Dai out.
