Apocalypse: I watch a survival game in a safe house

The midnight wind blew on my face and the back of my hands, and it felt like someone was cutting my skin with a knife, it hurt so much!

The sky and the earth were dark, so Zhang Yi landed on the ground naturally. He walked towards the area where the inner city and the outer city met.

It just so happens that there is a very wide river here.

When you walk onto the bridge, you can see people talking to each other.

Suddenly, a clear voice sounded in front of Zhang Yi.

"Would you like to buy some flowers, sir?"

Zhang Yi lowered his head and saw a figure wrapped in a worn cotton coat.

It was freezing cold, but she was wearing thin clothes, and her face was red and cracked from the cold.

This is the face of a mixed-race child, who looks only thirteen or fourteen years old.

"flower?"

Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment.

In such cold weather, there are still people selling flowers?

The girl continued, "You can buy red flowers here for just 5 kilograms of rice. If you don't like red flowers, there are sisters selling blue and yellow flowers."

Zhang Yi vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but looking at the girl in front of him who was only about ten years old and not even as tall as his chest, he didn't dare to think about it that way.

Xuan Haixiu's voice sounded in Zhang Yi's ears.

"Sir, this is the flower girl. You'd better leave here as soon as possible! I've only heard of her before, but I didn't expect to see her for the first time, and it's all because of you."

Zhang Yi asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"

Genkai Hide explained, “Even in the outer city of Pulisang, many people were unable to get enough food. During this time, many women with limited labor capacity were forced to sell their bodies to make ends meet.”

"Selling flowers is a code word. Red flowers refer to those between the ages of teens and 20. Unmarried women in their 20s are called blue flowers, and married women are called yellow flowers. As for widows, they are called purple flowers."

"I've always heard that there are many women like this around Pulisang. They rely on this to support themselves and even their families. At night, when the power goes out in the outer city, they appear on the edge of the outer city."

Zhang Yi listened silently, feeling a little emotional, but he didn't express it much.

He has seen too much misery in this world, and he has important things to do right now, so he can't be delayed by this.

The girl in front of me looks too young. If she really couldn't make a living, why would she become a flower girl?

Seeing that Zhang Yi didn't say anything, the girl's excited voice trembled in the cold wind.

"Sir, I'm very cheap. If you really can't help me, I can give you a discount. I haven't eaten for two days and I'm almost starving. Please, please, be kind!"

Her voice was filled with tears.

Zhang Yi raised his head and looked around. The river bank was filled with shadowy figures and women selling flowers.

Not far from the river bank are rows of houses.

Some have parents, husbands and even children at home.

They bring their guests and need to return home, where they are separated from their families by a wall and have to sell their bodies in exchange for food.

This is just a corner of the city of Pulisang.

And this place is also the capital of the Kajie Kingdom.

"no need!"

Zhang Yi used his smart device to simulate the fluent Kaja language, answered the flower girl coldly, and then walked past her indifferently.

The flower girl's eyes were full of despair.

She hadn't eaten for two days. Originally, she didn't have to do this kind of thing. Her brother could still go to work on the farm, and she also helped sew clothes on the farm, which was enough for the two of them to survive.

But a few days ago, her brother fell ill.

Residents of the outer city have no savings. No matter how hard they work, they can only have enough food to eat and wear warm clothes.

So a disease can directly destroy a family.

In the end, she had to put aside all her shame and go out to sell flowers, just to ensure that she and her brother could survive.

But she wasn't pretty. Even the most beautiful girl would become ugly under the harsh cold wind day after day; even the most beautiful girl would become skinny if she didn't have enough food to eat and couldn't supplement her protein.
