Chapter 818: Seemingly a rookie but mastering the strange world 15

Su Yan started taking orders on her electric bike. When she went to pick up the food, she happened to meet the kind-hearted tasker who reminded her on the first day that she would probably die if she failed to complete the task. He was also picking up food at this store.

"You're still here." The other person looked at Su Yan with some surprise and greeted him.

Su Yan sneered: "You are still here too."

While waiting, the two made a brief self-introduction.

His name is Wu Sheng. He has been to the dungeon three times and this is the fourth time.

He was well aware of the importance of exchanging information among taskers, and he did not keep anything to himself. He told Su Yan everything he had encountered while delivering food over the past two days.

"I've seen all kinds of life in the many families I've delivered to. There was one family where both husband and wife couldn't cook, and the husband especially liked to beat his wife. Every time I went to deliver food, he beat his wife. At first I would help the woman to stop him, but she turned around and blamed me for meddling in other people's business, and also blamed me for beating her husband and asked me to pay compensation. Because of this, I got a bad review, which was really fucked up."

This kind of thing is not uncommon in real life, and it is really difficult to judge what happens between couples.

Sometimes being too compassionate can get you into trouble. When two people are willing to fight and be beaten, it's best to pretend not to see it.

This kind of person doesn't deserve any sympathy at all, he is totally a masochist.

"Did anything bad happen to you when you got the bad reviews?" Su Yan asked curiously.

Wu Sheng said with lingering fear: "Of course not. I had a nightmare that night. I was being chased and pursued by strange creatures. I was exhausted. When I woke up the next day, I felt more tired than after a day's work."

"and after?"

"Later, I minded my own business and tried not to have any friction with the NPC, and I finally got through it without any danger. But I'm working the night shift today, and I'm a little worried that the orders at night are not safe."

Su Yan nodded. It was indeed ten times more dangerous at night than during the day. If Su Yan did not have absolute fighting power, he could not guarantee that he would escape unscathed.

Su Yan specifically asked him if he had delivered to any customers with children at home, or if he had seen any suspicious people?

Wu Sheng thought about it and remembered one: "Every time I deliver food, I will encounter a clown delivering balloons in Xingfu Community. The quality of those balloons is pretty good. They are not the kind that are easy to break and they glow inside."

"I saw him delivering balloons to families with children several times, but today, I found that a child was missing. The family called the police and searched everywhere for the child. They even came to ask me if I had seen their child. There are really few children in this community."

Wu Sheng noticed that Su Yan's expression was not right, and he keenly discovered the problem and exclaimed: "Is there something wrong with that clown? Have all the children in this community been in trouble?"

Su Yan nodded and told him about his discoveries over the past two days.

Wu Sheng also had an impression of the girl on the seventh floor. He quickly added, "That girl is also very pitiful. I heard that her mother ran away with someone, so her father became addicted to alcohol and gambling, and would beat and scold the child when he was in a bad mood."

"Did her mother really run away with someone? Why did she run away? Was it because of love or because of money?"

"I don't know about that. I just heard that someone saw her mother carrying her luggage and running away with someone. But some people also said that the man hit and killed a child with a taxi and paid a lot of money for compensation. The woman couldn't stand the hard life and ran away."

Didn’t that scumbag say that he didn’t kill the child, he was just driving the same car as the driver who caused the accident?

It doesn't make sense that he would dare to admit that he had killed someone, so there is no reason for him to lie about another car accident.

"I think he didn't kill the child. The real driver should be someone else."

Su Yan also briefly recounted how he had interrogated the scumbag.

Wu Sheng was stunned when he heard this. How could this be possible? Wasn't it a foul to treat NPCs so violently?

But if you think about it, it's okay. During off-get off work hours, you are not bound by company rules and regulations.

I wanted to continue analyzing it, but both of them had their meals ready, so I could only deliver the takeout.

The two added each other as friends and could chat and exchange information through the bracelets.

On the way to deliver the takeaway, Su Yan kept thinking that it seemed that the misfortune of this community started with the little boy being hit and killed.

Then a curse began to spread and children started disappearing one after another.

Su Yan's destination was Xingfu Community again. While riding her electric bike on the familiar road, she suddenly saw a woman rummaging through a trash can. She looked so crazy, as if there was some treasure in the trash can.

Su Yan slowed down and drove to the trash can.

"What are you looking for? Do you need my help?"

The other person raised a pale face with sunken cheeks, a sick look, and disheveled hair, looking like a female ghost.

"My child, have you seen my child?"

As soon as he heard her voice, Su Yan knew who she was: the poor mother on the 12th floor who gave birth to a daughter but whose daughter died of pneumonia.

That is the daughter-in-law of the vicious old woman who abandoned the dead baby.

Su Yan opened his mouth to speak, but didn't know how to say it.

Tell her that the child is dead and can't be found?

A person who pretends to be asleep cannot be woken up. For a person who is willing to believe that the child is still alive, perhaps finding a trash can is the only way for her to comfort herself.

As long as she didn't see it with her own eyes, she believed the child was still alive.

Su Yan watched her search this trash can and then go to the trash can next door to look for it, determined to search all the trash cans in the entire community.

Su Yan was in a hurry to deliver the takeaway and couldn't waste time, so he had to go deliver the takeaway first.

This time, the family lives in Room 4, 10th Floor, Building 101.

Su Yan rang the doorbell, only to hear a man blaming himself and a woman sighing in relief.

"Junhao, don't be like this. The child is gone. We have to accept the reality and move on."

"It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Dabao. I'm not worthy of being a father. I'm not worthy of being a human being."

The woman was also crying. She was in equal pain, but there had to be someone to support the family.

The child's father has become mentally ill because of his carelessness and failure to take good care of his son. If she doesn't become stronger, this family will be over.

"Junhao, let's have another child. If Xiaoxi misses us, he will definitely come back. I believe he will come back."

"Will the child still be willing to return to this home? Will he still recognize me as his father?"

"Yes, we will welcome him back. As long as he doesn't go far, he will be reborn in my belly again."

Listening to their conversation, Su Yan really didn't want to interrupt the atmosphere of the couple comforting and redeeming each other, but her order was about to expire, so she had to press the doorbell again.

The woman wiped away her tears and pretended to be strong to open the door.

Seeing what Su Yan was holding, he politely took the food and said thank you.

"You're welcome."

The woman didn't say anything extra. Just as she was about to close the door, Su Yan suddenly blocked her way.

The other party looked at her in surprise, wondering what was wrong with her.

Su Yan said apologetically: "Although it's a bit presumptuous to ask this, I still want to ask, did your child receive a balloon before the accident?"

The woman shuddered all over. The man in the room became increasingly angry when he heard someone mention the child, and he was about to come out and beat Su Yan.

The woman was relatively calm. She stared at Su Yan unkindly and asked, "Little girl, this doesn't seem to be within your job scope. What is your purpose?"

Su Yan said sincerely: "First of all, I apologize for my presumptuousness. Although I am a food delivery man on the surface, I am actually an agent. Many children in this community have gone missing, and they all say that it is because of the curse of your child's sudden death. I don't believe it is not the case. I even suspect that your child was killed by human traffickers, so I asked this question."

The couple was shocked. They never thought that their child’s death might not just be the result of a car accident, but could be due to a deeper conspiracy.
