Who is so ignorant that he knocks on other people’s doors in the middle of the night?
What’s even more disgusting is that this is someone else’s bridal night The two of them stiffened and separated reluctantly, at least Rose was very reluctant.
As for Xiao Ming, his heart couldn't help but twitch, God showed up.
"Miss, Xiao Ming, get up quickly, the old lady is dying."
It was the voice of the fat boss, and the news that came in was no less than a bolt from the blue.
"Ah" Xiao Ming and Mei Mei looked at each other and looked at each other, hurriedly looking for clothes to wear.
Grandma was obviously fine at the wedding banquet at noon, but why didn't she do well at night?
On the tenth floor, in the large cubicle, the lights were bright, Mrs.
Shuitou was lying motionless on the big bed, and the stationmaster and two nurses were nervously carrying out rescue operations.
Xiao Ming and Mei Mei ran in hand in hand, stood beside the bed, and cried together: "Grandma, Grandma" The old lady wore an oxygen mask on her face.
When she heard the two voices, her gray eyes lit up.
She raised her finger with difficulty, first pointed at the rose, and then at Xiao Ming, as if she wanted to say something, but nothing came.
Can't tell.
Xiao Ming guessed what Shuitou meant, knelt down beside the bed, and put his mouth close to her ear: "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Rose."
After hearing this, the old lady smiled, exhaled a long breath, closed her eyes, and her electrocardiogram became a straight line, just to wait until Xiao Ming and Rose arrived before she could close her eyes.
The stationmaster rolled Shuitou's eyelids, shook his head, and signaled the nurse to stop resuscitation.
"Grandma" Rose shouted heartbreakingly and threw herself on Shuitou.
Xiao Ming was still kneeling in front of the bed, his eyes wide open, trying his best not to let tears flow down.
God went too far and gave him such a gift on such a happy day.
Although he was mentally prepared, Shuitou's death still gave Xiao Ming a big blow.
Why did God throw misfortunes to him one after another and ask him to endure pain that ordinary people can't bear in such a short period of time?
The stationmaster and the nurse silently exited the room, leaving Xiao Ming with Rose.
"Xiao Ming, I only have you as my only relative."
Rose, like a helpless little girl, threw herself into Xiao Ming's arms, crying like tears.
"Rose, I will definitely take good care of you."
Xiao Ming hugged Rose tightly and looked at Shuitou who left peacefully.
He didn't know how to fulfill his promise.
Perhaps, by minimizing the harm to Rose as much as possible, he would do the best to the old man.
My wife’s greatest condolences.
The happy event turned into a funeral, and it was a troubled time.
First, the Eastern District fell, and a sense of precarious crisis permeated among the survivors.
Shuitou suddenly passed away again.
If the news spread, I am afraid it would make people's hearts flutter even more.
After all, the stability of the water plant is related to the black market.
A matter of livelihood.
After a short period of weakness, Rose showed a strong side and endured her grief.
After discussing with Xiao Ming and the webmaster, she decided not to disclose the matter to the public and mourn her grandma secretly.
According to custom, Mei Mei had to stay filial piety for her grandma for at least a month, and moved from the new house to Shuitou's room to temporarily take care of the water plant.
The death of the old lady helped Xiao Ming invisibly.
He didn't have to worry about sleeping with Rose, but he was not happy at all.
His life and his plan seemed to be continued through the death of each of his close relatives.
This feeling made his soul tortured, leaving him speechless.
On the third day after Shuitou's death, the annual negotiation between the black market and the smuggling ship officially began, and the location was the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the natural residence.
Xiao Ming accompanied Rose to attend.
For fear of affecting his preparation for the finals, she did not tell him much about negotiations.

His main role was to help her suppress the situation.
Before the captain arrived, Yaotou and Hu Wei were sitting on the sofa in the restaurant.
One was smoking a cigar and the other was drinking tea.
They chatted for a while.
When they saw Rose and Xiao Ming coming in, they stood up together to express their condolences.
The old lady's Naturally, his death could not be hidden from these two people.
Rose had obviously matured a lot.
Although she looked sad, she still sat down with the two of them and discussed the negotiations.
Xiao Ming was not interested in their topic, so he walked to a viewing position and looked out the window with a high-power telescope standing there.
This was the first time he looked down on the city from such a height and perspective, and he understood why the negotiation location was set here, because standing in such a position gave him a feeling of controlling all living beings.
Indeed, the fate of this city lies in the hands of a few people here.
Xiao Ming turned the telescope and scanned slowly, and saw that under the gray sky, various buildings stood at random.
The prosperity of the past could be vaguely seen, but there was no life, and it looked like a dead city.
He suddenly stopped because he saw a black spot appearing in the sky, flying from the east.
Xiao Ming quickly adjusted the focus and zoomed in on the target.
This was a helicopter, but it was not the white one at the rescue station, but a black one.
A long machine gun barrel stretched out from under the nose, and two rows of missiles were hung.
It's an armed helicopter.
The helicopter hovered over the East District for a while and then flew towards Natural Residence.
Xiao Ming aimed the camera at the cockpit and saw clearly that the person sitting in the co-pilot's seat was the captain.
The captain swung his gray windbreaker with a stern expression and strode in.
Two fully armed guards stood at the door holding wide-box submachine guns that could only be seen in movies.
Xiao Ming, Mei Gui, Yaotou, and Hu Wei sat around the round table, waiting for their seats.
A waiter stood far away, serving tea and water.
The first thing the captain did after he sat down was to ask: "Everyone, I see that the situation in the East District is very serious.
A large number of nuclear zombies have appeared.
Can you control the situation?"
Yaotou and Hu Wei looked at each other and said confidently: "No problem."
Xiao Ming thought of a question and asked Rose in a low voice: "Does the security team have unified command and how to deploy it?"
Rose quietly replied: "There is no unified command.
The defense of each district is the responsibility of each battalion captain.
If a big situation occurs, like last time in the East District, the three giants will need to sign in to mobilize reinforcements from each battalion."
Xiao Ming understood.
In fact, they were fighting on their own, and it was easy to miss the opportunity.
"Don't be so confident."
The captain's eyes were sharp.
He looked at the rose first and said "Condolences."
He obviously also knew the news of the old lady's death.
Then he turned to Yaotou and Hu Wei, "Once the nuclear corpse group gathers to a certain size, it will Quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, and their destructive power will increase exponentially.
I have personally seen several cities destroyed in this way. " Xiao Ming's heart trembled.
He had seen with his own eyes the astonishing destructive power of the nuclear corpse swarm.
If the captain's prediction was correct, the black market would be in danger.
Rose, Yaotou, and Hu Wei looked at each other in confusion.
Although they felt that the captain's words were a bit alarmist, they did not dare to take them lightly.
As the only remaining one of the three giants who founded the black market, Yaotou is the oldest and has the most say.

He asked doubtfully: "We have been here safely for so many years.
Although the nuclear corpse swarm has occupied the East District, there has been nothing recently.
There was a lot of noise, and there were occasional harassments, but they were beaten back by the security team.”
Hu Wei also said: "Yes, we know that the fire dragon is very powerful, so in this negotiation, you have to give us more gasoline."
"Put the negotiations aside for now.
I don't want this city to have become a world of nuclear zombies when I come here again next year."
The captain blocked Hu Wei with one sentence, and then said to the medicine head, "Old demon, you can see Calmness is only a superficial phenomenon.
The accumulation of nuclear corpses is like water in a reservoir.
Once it reaches a critical point, it will burst and pour down.
By then, it will be too late."
Rose participated in the negotiation for the first time.
She prepared carefully for a long time, but she didn't expect that the negotiation would not be the first thing to talk about.
She didn't know what to say.
Xiao Ming couldn't help but said: "Captain, since you see the danger, why can't you exchange some sophisticated weapons for us to deal with the nuclear zombies, and we will be more confident?"
The captain then glanced at Xiao Ming: "I'll tell you about the world I've seen.
In a country where guns are rampant, the survivors are completely out of control, killing each other, and will perish themselves before the nuclear zombies attack.
The old lady suggested it during her lifetime.
"The strategy is correct.
Even if the gunpowder gun gets into the hands of survivors, it will not be very lethal and will not threaten the order of the entire black market."
It turned out that the old lady’s suggestion was that the firepower configuration of the security team was lagging behind.
Xiao Ming stopped speaking, and thought that the captain knew the outside world best, and he wanted to have a good chat with her if he had the opportunity.
"However," the captain changed his tone, "the old lady's strategy is only suitable for peacetime, and now is an emergency period, so extraordinary strategies should be adopted.
Everyone, do you have any good ideas?"
Xiao Ming heard it and knew that the captain already knew that she was deliberately trying to test the wisdom of the new leadership of the black market.
I saw Yaotou hiding his face under his hat and smoking cigars one after another.
Hu Wei frowned and kept drinking tea.
Rose also heard it, and relying on her good relationship with the captain, she urged: "Sophie, please stop being so secretive and tell me quickly."
It turns out that the captain's name is Sophie, a very exotic name.
Xiao Ming spoke again and asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Captain, I want to ask you whether our ore is very valuable."
Sophie was a little surprised, but she didn't hide it: "It's valuable, it's very important to the outside world."
Xiao Ming did not ask why the ore was so important to the outside world.
It was enough to know the importance of the black market in the captain's heart, and then said: "Then I'll start the discussion.
I think that in order to maintain the stability of the black market, we must first strengthen the strength of the security team. , not only upgrade weapons and equipment, but also expand military strength and establish a general commander who can mobilize all battalions."
As soon as Xiao Ming said this, both Yaotou and Hu Wei were shocked.
It was not that they had not thought of this proposal, but that they had thought about it before.
However, they did not implement it based on overall consideration at the time, so they did not think about it at all just now. .
Rose also stayed at her original thinking and objected bluntly: "Xiao Ming, you don't know.
It's already hard enough for the black market to support the existing security team.
How can we expand the army?"
"I think the captain will help us solve this problem.
Since the black market is so important," Xiao Ming smiled slyly.
Since we can't tap the potential internally, we can only rely on external forces.
He is an outsider and is not restricted by inherent limitations.
Instead, he can see the essence of the problem better and put forward the right suggestions at the right time.
This was not something he just thought of.

His one-month experience in the security team, as well as the lessons from the bloody battle in the East District, made him well aware of the shortcomings and weaknesses of this armed force, and he also knew how to play its due role.
Only then did Sophie understand the purpose of Xiao Ming's question.
She looked at him differently and avoided the transferred question without comment: "Xiao Ming, who do you think is the right person to be the commander-in-chief?"
