The night market in the base was very lively. There were all kinds of exchanges here, but what was most lacking was food, water, and crystal core.

Here, no one dared to take out such things as food.

These people rob like crazy and could trample several people to death.

“Girl, what do you want to buy?”

A girl with a cold face stood in front of a booth, staring at the five books, her mood was a little complicated.

This is the end of the world!

The end of the world!!

Doomsday!!

“Girl, this book is out of print and can be collected. When the end of the world passes, the value will double.” Seeing that Chu Zheng was staring at the books, the other party immediately recommended her.

“…” You’re pretty good at business. “Do you think the end will pass?”

“Hey, that’s something to look forward to.” The man was very optimistic: “Girl? Let’s exchange with a bag of instant noodles.”

Chu Zheng shook her head and glanced at a watch that looked very valuable. At the end of the world, this thing was not as valuable as a piece of bread. She threw a crystal core in front of the seller.

The man didn’t see what she threw at first. When he found that it was a crystal core, he suddenly covered the crystal core and looked around.

Seeing that the people around didn’t pay attention to this side, he quickly put the crystal nucleus away.

The heart is pounding like meeting a beloved girl.

Crystal core!

Can change for a lot of food!

So exciting!

As if afraid that Chu Zheng would regret her action, the man packed up his things and ran away, leaving Chu Zheng at a loss.

Why run?

I don’t rob him.

Chu Zheng planned to catch the good man card next time and gave him this watch.

Although I don’t know why, I think it’s very suitable on him.

Since I think so, let’s hoard it first.

Um!

[…] Listen to the young lady’s words, catch! She said catch! She didn’t have to find a word anymore. She started to catch it directly.

Is the lady a devil?!

What evil did the good man card do?

Wangzhe lit a candle for the good man card.

After a minute of silence, he happily released a task for Chu Zheng.

[Main task: Please spend 200 crystal cores in two hours.]

Chu Zheng was not happy. She wanted to kill the bastard named Wangzhe.

Can’t you give her a break?

Can’t you understand the weak and helpless little me?

[Miss, we are a prodigal system. We should be a prodigal non-stop! This is in line with our life value!]

“Can’t you change your life value?”

[… Miss, I’m afraid… I can’t.] Can life value be changed casually? No! We should an unshakable prodigal.

“Son of a bitch.”

[…] Even if I can’t do it, you shouldn’t scold me! Annoying!

“Crystal nuclei in the circulation is not large. With such a large number, it’s easy to disrupt the system. Do you not think about this problem?”

If it’s money, whether a million or tens of millions, is like throwing a stone into the sea. You can’t even hear a sound*. (TN: It’s very common to spend huge amount of money, people won’t become suspicious.)

But it’s different now.

This is the end.

The number of nuclei in circulation is limited.

Even if all people in the country become zombies and everyone has a crystal nucleus in their head, it’s only a little more than a billion.

[Xiao Jiejie, in order to balance the impact of excessive crystal nuclei, the consumption of nuclei will increase to achieve a balance.] I know how to adapt to local conditions! I am a cultured system!

“Speak human words.”

[People use a lot of crystal nuclei to upgrade. Of course, there is no need for Miss to worry, you don’t spend too many crystal nuclei now, so that situation won’t happen for the time being.]

Chu Zheng: “…”

Chu Zheng held the crystal core thoughtfully. Wangzhe thought carefully about what he had just said. It seemed that there was no problem.

What is she thinking?

“You son of a bitch.”

[…] Can’t you not scold me? As a system, it also has dignity!

Can’t be bothered!

Let’s run away!

[Miss, you have fifty minutes left.]

After Wangzhe was finished, it quickly disappeared.

Chu Zheng: “…”

Chu Zheng walked around the night market. People squatting on both sides looked at her with unfriendly eyes from time to time.

However, because of Chu Zheng’s big boss aura, no one dared to move forward.

Chu Zheng came and found a store.

When Chu Zheng entered the store, a well-dressed waiter immediately greeted her: “How many people?”

“One.”

“This way, please.”

Chu Zheng found that if the guests were male, they would be greeted by a waitresses, and if it’s a female guest, they would be greeted by a waiter.

“What would you like to eat?”

Chu Zheng looked at the menu. The most expensive dish required 80 crystal cores.

So cheap…

Chu Zheng pointed at the dish with an expressionless face. The waiter smiled and reminded: “It needs 80 crystal cores.”

“Yeah.” The waiter smiled more sincerely and even leaned against Chu Zheng.

Chu Zheng glanced at him, her tone became colder: “Stand far away.”

The waiter’s smile froze, and after hesitating, he glanced at Chu Zheng’s indifferent face and stood a little further away obediently.

Chu Zheng ordered two of the most expensive dishes.

The waiter handed her the bill and reminded her that she had to pay before serving.

The dish that was served was made of fresh meat, not much. It should be wild animals. The other dish was made from fresh vegetables.

Now the plants were dying. The weather was hot and the water was not enough for people to drink. They couldn’t grow vegetables at all.

You can find fresh vegetables here, it’s normal to be expensive.

Chu Zheng was sitting on the second floor and could see the lobby below.

A group of people came in from the outside. As soon as they came in, the atmosphere in the lobby seemed to change.

Chu Zheng was lying on the railing and looked down expressionlessly.

Isn’t this… Uh… The people looking for the original owner?

Ning You hasn’t been with these people yet?

So slow?

No!

As soon as Chu Zheng thought of Ning You, she saw her came out from the other side and hurried out.

“Hey…”

The waiter and Ning You bumped into each other. Ning You apologized and left in a hurry as if there was something urgent.

“Ah, miss, you lost your things!”

The waiter picked up something on the ground. Now, this thing was not as good as a piece of bread. There’s nothing to be worried about.

The person must have some skills to eat here*, and the waiter didn’t want to get into trouble. (TN: The place is expensive → Crystal nuclei → Need some abilities to get.)

[Little sister! Hurry up! Don’t let Ning You succeed!]

Chu Zheng remained unmoved.

She watched a person from the group took the jade pendant from the waiter and said something to the waiter. The waiter nodded and left.

Then the group didn’t enter the store and left with their things.

It looked like they’re going to chase Ning You.

If she was smart, she would disappear quickly after going out, and let these people found her to get rid of the suspicion quickly.

Obviously, Ning You was rather smart. When Chu Zheng went out, there were still people standing outside, and they seemed to be waiting for something.

Chu Zheng didn’t want to recognize her relatives and left the place directly.

If she tell those people that she was the owner of the jade pendant, it would make the group feel that they was looking for the wrong person.
