Chen Quan scolded Tris:

"Shut up and follow me if you don't want to die!"

Triss then stopped crying and stood up and quickly followed.

How much would she care about her son since she would send him to hell for two years and ignore him?

Originally she was pretending to be fainted, and she only pretended to be like this to win Lin Shi's sympathy.

In her opinion, she and Lin Shi were strangers, and Lin Shi was willing to come over to help her find her son, so he naturally felt pity for her.

As long as she makes good use of this advantage, she will surely live a better life than before!

...

Lin Shi returned to Area B and came outside the small foreign-style building where he lived.

Triss has been living on the ground floor for three years. She almost forgot how long it had been since she saw such a clean and beautiful house.

From the moment she entered Area B and saw the clean and exquisite small western-style buildings, her eyes were filled with ambition.

Lin Shi pretended not to see it, opened the door and led people into the house.

Naturally, Chen Quan did not follow up.

Back in the mansion, Lin Shi used his mental power to see that Lin Siyuan was still not awake.

Huahua felt Lin Shi's breath and raised her head in Lin Siyuan's room.

But he didn't come down.

Because it felt the unfamiliar aura on Triss's body.

Lin Shi pointed to a guest room on the first floor and said to Triss who had been looking around:

"You are staying in that room these days. You can use the things on the first floor as you like. You are not allowed to go to the second floor. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Lin Shi didn't mention Lin Siyuan's presence here, and he didn't want this woman to know that Lin Siyuan was on the second floor for the time being.

There are also a lot of daily necessities sent from Chen's base on the first floor. Even if Lin Shi didn't say anything, Triss would ask.

They were all from Chen's base, and Lin Shi would not argue with a woman over these things.

This woman wouldn't be able to stay for a few days anyway.

After Lin Shi finished speaking, he went upstairs.

He didn't want to eat lunch with the unappetizing woman downstairs, so he took out the cooked food he had made before and ate it.

The time-stopping ability of space allows Lin Shi to eat hot meals even if he is not cooking.

As for Triss, there are some ingredients sent from the base on the first floor.

After experiencing the initial apprehension and nervousness, Triss fell into great ecstasy.

I was picking through the daily necessities on the first floor and rummaging around. When I saw the meat, I was excited to take a few bites of it raw, then turned around and took it to the kitchen to fry it.

He also cooked a portion for Lin Shi, and at the top of the stairs, he pinched his throat and asked Lin Shi to come down and eat together.

Lin Shi stopped paying attention to her after she refused.

In the afternoon, Lin Shi gave some instructions to Huahua, who was looking after Lin Siyuan, and warned Tris before going out alone.

As expected, I met Chen Quan at the door.

This time Lin Shi walked straight to the outer city.

The outer city covers a much larger area than the inner city, and they are all third-order evolvers from outside.

Lin Shi also saw several second-order evolvers among them.

Chen Quan on the side explained to Lin Shi:

"Those are registered refugees who come to the trading market in the outer city to trade supplies."

It turns out that even people who are not from the base can still enter the outer city through temporary registration.

But not everyone can enter.

It must be strictly registered and have a certain value of collateral to be mortgaged to the base.

You are not allowed to stay overnight in other cities, you must enter and leave on the same day.

If caught staying overnight, not only will the collateral be detained, but in serious cases, they may even be killed.

The reason why these refugees go through such trouble to come in for a day is because there is a trading market in the outer city.

The trading market is protected by the base and barter transactions can be carried out inside.

They are all transactions between the evolvers in the base or transactions with the refugees.

Many refugees will come to the trading market to exchange for the coarse grains they need after hunting source beasts or obtaining other good things.

Most of these coarse grains are eaten by the evolvers in the outer city or given to the people in Area D.

These coarse grains are also a high-quality and low-priced choice for refugees.

By exchanging source animal meat for coarse grains, you can get more than ten times or even dozens of times the coarse grains according to different levels of animal meat.

It lasts longer than eating raw animal meat.

However, there are risks when refugees come here to trade. As long as they leave the base, the base will not care about them.

Whether you can bring the trading items back alive requires a certain amount of strength and luck.

Therefore, this trading market is also called the black market.

There was nothing to see in the residential area, so Lin Shi scanned around and went straight to the black market.

It is similar to the exchanges I saw in Shashi before.

Some people spread plastic sheets on the ground, with some miscellaneous items placed on the plastic sheets.

Wet pieces of wood, electronic parts, cell phones that no longer work, rags... useful, useless, everything.

Lin Shi didn't wander around for long, and he could get an overview with just one sweep of his mental energy.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head and looked at an area in the black market.

He actually saw an acquaintance here.

...

About a dozen people were gathered around a stall at this time.

Onlookers watched the stall owner haggling fiercely with a homeless man.

The stall owner is a tall, muscular white man with broad shoulders and narrow waist.

There were some sundries and a basket of dark things on his stall.

This kind of thing is an edible food cultivated at the base. Experts from Chen's base gave it the scientific name Suyu.

It looks a bit like konjac, but its taste is completely different from konjac.

It doesn't taste soft and glutinous, not only is it rough, but it also has a strange smell in your mouth, like rotten pork.

Therefore, the survivors also call this plain taro stinky taro.

"A flashlight is exchanged for a basket of yams. No more. This flashlight is almost out of power. I will need to replace the batteries later. Do you know how expensive batteries are?"

"I know batteries are expensive, and maybe a flashlight for normal use is even more expensive. Brother, please see clearly, this is a strong flashlight, much stronger than an ordinary flashlight..."

The white stall owner saw more and more people around him, and his impatience flashed visibly on his face:

"If you want to change, just change. If not, get out!"

"Okay, then give me back the flashlight and I'll find someone else to replace it!"

Jack was also a little angry. He finally saw a stall owner selling plain taro. He didn't expect it to be so difficult to negotiate the price.

"I told you, get out of here! What a flashlight, this is my flashlight!"

The white stall owner raised a sinister smile and put Jack's flashlight directly into his arms.

Jack stared at the stall owner in disbelief:

"That's my flashlight!!"

"You say it's yours, how can you prove it? You're a homeless man in rags, where did you get the flashlight? This flashlight is obviously mine!

Boy, my brother is the captain of the outer city patrol team. My brother gave me this flashlight. Is there any problem? "

The stall owner not only robbed, but also moved out his patrons.

This is a naked threat.

Jack's chest heaved violently with anger.

Jack did not dare to come to the black market to exchange for food because of his low level, so he ate it himself.

Unexpectedly, he was actually allowed to activate the third-level gene lock.

After the third level, Jack, who felt that he was powerful, couldn't wait to call a few companions and wanted to bring something to the black market to exchange for some coarse grains to eat back.

At the same time, I also want to see the doorway to join the outer city and come here to get some information.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to the black market to find what he needed, he met someone who wanted to hack his flashlight!
