Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory
Chapter 168 Applying Pressure
The rooftop planting system is quite well-organized, with all sorts of fruits and vegetables available.
Lin Shuangshuang took a basket and picked a few large tomatoes, which were actually the old variety, mealy and sandy. She also picked a handful of small yellow tomatoes, plus half a basket of lettuce. Lettuce is the easiest to grow and grows quickly.
The bean sprouts and eggplants next door are almost ready to be picked, as are the green peppers.
The fruit trees are all short, some are naturally short, and some have been specially modified to be smaller, but they still bear a lot of fruit, with an amazing amount of fruit.
Lin Shuangshuang looked around and felt that with so many fruits and vegetables, her team would have no trouble eating, and they didn't need to worry about vitamins either.
After she finished picking the crops, she was about to go downstairs when she ran into her two little dogs, Xiao San and Xiao Si, who were coming up to check on the crops. They were pleasantly surprised to see her.
【Oh! It's Xiao Shuang'er! Are you upstairs tending the vegetable garden today too?】
"Thank you for your help. Please hand over the basket to us, and we'll take it down for you later!"
The little robot was very lively, chattering away and circling around Lin Shuangshuang.
Lin Shuangshuang nodded in agreement, "That would be perfect, I'll go see Huo Ling then."
The mistresses immediately started gossiping: "Go and comfort Xiao Huo?! Of course, of course! Xiao Huo is a very sensitive child!" "Exactly!"
Lin Shuangshuang smiled, handed the basket to the two of them, and patted their round heads. She saw smiley faces appear on their electronic screens. "Then I'll have to trouble you two."
The mistresses felt respected and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The fourth floor is just below the top floor. Lin Shuangshuang noticed that Huo Ling was in the room, so she went over and peeked into the doorway to see what he was doing.
Once Huo Ling activated his psychic abilities, he had a clear view of his surroundings, as if he had eyes in the back of his head. "Come in, what are you sneaking around for?"
Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but smile, her eyes crinkling. "I'm watching what you're doing, whether you're secretly shedding tears."
Huo Ling chuckled, amused by her, and said with a snort, "Is it really necessary? Shedding tears for those people."
He sat alone on the sofa, looking quite lonely.
Lin Shuangshuang didn't answer that. She just walked to his side, stared at his thigh, and nudged his arm, "Move aside, I want to sit."
Huo Ling had just finished administering the heteronuclear diluent to himself when he heard this and glanced at her.
Silently open your hands.
Lin Shuangshuang sat down sideways and casually put her arm around his neck. She smelled a very faint scent of blood coming from the needle marks on his neck.
Even though the superhuman had a super healing ability and the pinprick-sized wound had already healed, she still felt quite reluctant to let it go, so she kissed it.
Huo Ling turned to look at her, "It's just a pinprick, Lin Shuangshuang, don't make a big deal out of it."
It's because she spoils herself too much that everyone in the little castle says she's becoming more and more spoiled, and that Lin Shuangshuang has to coax her every day to make her feel better.
……
Life is tough, Huo Ling sighed.
Lin Shuangshuang said frankly, "I just can't bear to do it, and injections hurt too."
Huo Ling said, "It doesn't hurt."
Lin Shuangshuang leaned on his shoulder and said, "It hurts." She added, "I just wanted to comfort you."
Huo Ling paused, then hugged her and said, "Okay."
Some people think you're immature, some think you should be mature and cold-blooded, while others feel sorry for your little sty, worry that you're sad, and try their best to comfort you.
The little monster's acting was clumsy, but he captured Huo Ling's emotions quite well.
Huo Ling patted her on the back, "I'm really fine."
Lin Shuangshuang slowly said, "Oh," but still wouldn't let go.
Huo Ling let her cling to him, occasionally pinching her cheek or touching her belly. He liked the person he liked no matter what.
The Huo family suddenly made a big fuss about it in the news, which sparked discussion, and online comments kept pointing to the missing eldest son.
It's definitely not simple.
Huo Ling and Lin Shuangshuang were both very perceptive and immediately sensed that something was amiss.
Their thoughts raced, each lost in quiet contemplation.
That is indeed the case.
The Huo family issued a reward notice the next day, saying that whoever could help find the young master would be given 1 billion points. In this day and age, being able to offer such a large number of points was truly extravagant, successfully shocking a large group of onlookers.
-How many?????
- A billion?! My God!!!
- These days, a billion points are incredibly valuable. What's wrong with the Huo family?
-Wasn't it said that the eldest son was out of favor? Why are they suddenly spending so much money to find him?
- I guess they're out of options, right? I heard they were searching secretly before, but they couldn't find them. Now they might be pulling out all the stops. If we wait a bit longer, the bounty might even go up. Speaking of which, the Huo family is so low-key, there aren't even any photos of them online. How are they supposed to find them? These days, who goes out without a mask and helmet? They're all bundled up, so it's really hard to find them.
- He must be dead, right? Otherwise, why would he abandon such a huge family business and not inherit it?
- It's hard to say. My friend's friend's cousin used to be classmates with the eldest son of the Huo family. According to their circle, the eldest son of the Huo family has a very bad relationship with his family. He may be deliberately not going home. They are now forcing him to show his face.
-I've got some juicy gossip! Ladies upstairs, tell me more!!!
Speaking of photos, the Huo family actually posted Huo Ling's photos online, and not just one, but photos of him before he was twenty-one. After Lin Shuangshuang left, Huo Ling completely disappeared from the Huo family's control.
Those photos were taken at a banquet. The young man was dressed in a well-fitting suit and was incredibly handsome. He happened to look into the camera, and the photo was taken, which was praised by people in the circle several times.
He was once praised by gossip reporters: his eyebrows and eyes were as sharp as a knife, his eyes were as calm as a cold pool, and he exuded an innate composure and aloofness. His appearance and demeanor were even better than his ancestors and fathers. He was the future star of the Huo family. They wanted to give him all the good words.
As a result, this rising star disappeared without a trace and never appeared in the public eye again.
Lin Shuangshuang was furious. She knew how important a person's appearance was, especially in a chaotic world like the apocalypse. How could she so easily expose her face? It would make her an easy target. What was the Huo family planning?
The three of them, including Lorna, were also furious, cursing and swearing incessantly, almost driven mad with anger.
"Doesn't the Huo family, with their kind of business, have their own connections?! Why do they have to announce it to the whole world? What exactly are they trying to do?"
"Exactly, where were they before? When this old man was showing off his love with his three kids and stepmother on the news, why didn't he mention he had a son?!"
"Not a single one of them is any good!"
Luo Na and the other two aren't idiots. Even a fool would know that they want to use a propaganda war to force Huo Ling to go home. Because if, as Luo Na said, they entrust the authorities to find him, the people the authorities send might not be able to bring Huo Ling back.
After all, he's an adult. If he doesn't want to go home, no one can force him. The current propaganda war is just an attempt to put pressure on him through the public.
Force him to go home.
