Chapter 28 The Good and the Bad



Chapter 28 The Good and the Bad

That afternoon, Lu Nian went to the supermarket along the way and bought some steaks and pork chops.

In America, rich people eat vegetables and poor people eat meat.

Poor people like Lu Nian can only eat meat every now and then.

Lu Nian spent $100 to buy four steaks and pork chops.

"Tonight I have a delicious meal again! Mrs. Henry's fried steak is never tired of eating!"

Lu Nian excitedly took the steak and pork chops and walked home.

When Lu Nian passed the narrow passage, he deliberately searched for the corpse left by the octopus horse last night.

But what surprised Lu Nian was that the wreckage left by the octopus horse disappeared!

"Strange! That guy has been burnt to ashes, why would anyone care about it? Could it be that he was eaten by a passing cat or dog?"

Lu Nian couldn't understand it.

When Lu Nian returned home, Mrs. Henry hadn't come back yet.

Mrs. Henry has no official job, but during the day, Mrs. Henry will go to the orphanage or nursing home to help.

Mrs. Henry did not do this to make money, but simply to contribute to society.

From this point of view, most of the elderly Americans are still very kind.

Lu Nian returned home, put the steak and pork chops in the refrigerator, then sat on the sofa, opened today's newspaper, and read.

"Dong Dong Dong!!!"

While Lu Nian was reading the newspaper, the door rang.

"Is it Mrs. Henry? Why are you still knocking on the door? Do you need my help with something?"

While shouting, Lu Nian walked to the door and opened it.

"you are?"

It was not Mrs. Henry who appeared in front of Lu Nian, but a man with a kind face.

"Hi, my name is Calvin Zarbo, and I'm a doctor."

"Hello, what's the matter with you?"

"Is this Mrs. Henry's home?"

"Yes, but she hasn't come back yet."

"Oh! She left this in our orphanage when she came to help today."

Calvin Zarbo pulled out a file.

"Thank you, Dr. Calvin."

"You're welcome. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Next time I have a chance, I will visit Mrs. Henry again."

"Okay! Goodbye, Dr. Calvin!"

Calvin Zabo quickly disappeared from Lu Nian's sight.

Lu Nian was curious as he held the document in his hand.

"What's going to be in here?"

But Lu Nian didn't open the file to take a look.Because it is immoral to override other people's privacy without permission.

Lu Nian casually put the documents on the dining table and continued to read the newspaper.

Mrs. Henry did not return home until six o'clock in the evening.

"Xiao Nian! I'm so sorry! I came back late! I lost an important document during the day today, and I searched for it for a long time! But I still couldn't find it!"

As soon as Mrs. Henry entered, she apologized to Lu Nian.

"Mrs. Henry, your documents are in the orphanage. Dr. Calvin from the orphanage came here specially to deliver the documents."

"Oh? Where?"

"I put it on the table."

After hearing the words, Mrs. Henry quickly ran to the dining table, picked up the documents, and checked them again. A big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

"Thank goodness! I finally got it back!"

"Mrs. Henry, what is that?"

Mrs. Henry immediately replied, "Nothing! Nothing!"

Seeing Mrs. Henry's attitude, Lu Nian felt a little doubt in his heart.

"Xiao Nian, didn't you secretly open it and read it just now?"

"No!"

"That's good...that's good!!!"

Mrs. Henry treated this document like a treasure, and hid it well, not even letting Lu Nian know.

This further deepened Lu Nian's doubts.But Lu Nian didn't take the initiative to ask.

"Mrs. Henry, after I got off work today, I stopped by and bought steaks and pork chops, and put them in the refrigerator."

"Oh? If you want to eat, just tell me directly, there is no need to buy it yourself."

"It doesn't matter, it's on the way anyway. Besides, it doesn't have much money."

"Only this time, don't do it again next time! Xiao Nian, it's not easy for you to earn some money, save it well and don't spend it recklessly."

"I see, Mrs. Henry! I will!"

That night, Lu Nian once again learned about the fried steak Mrs. Henry made by herself.

"It's delicious! No matter how many times you eat it, you can't get enough!"

"Xiao Nian, if you like to eat, eat more!"

"Hi!!! Mrs. Henry, I'm full!"

Lu Nian hiccupped and put down the knife and fork in his hand.

"Xiao Nian, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Someone recently encountered a monster with octopus claws on its arms and horse legs on its legs."

When Lu Nian heard it, isn't this an octopus horse?

Lu Nian forced a smile and replied, "Mrs. Henry, I've heard of it."

"Xiao Nian, you'd better be careful when you go out recently. I heard that this monster likes to kill people! We have to be careful!"

"Okay! I will! Mrs. Henry, be careful when you go out!"

"I'm already very careful! In my bag, I carry a bag of lime powder at all times. It will always save my life at critical moments."

Hearing this, Lu Nian gave Mrs. Henry a thumbs up.

"Mrs. Henry, you are the best!"

This night, the octopus horse became the topic of conversation between Lu Nian and Mrs. Henry after dinner.

At the same time, in the old house on the outskirts of Brooklyn, Dr. Zola had already brainwashed the crab man with radio waves.

Dr. Gordon's second work, Crabman, is officially here!
At this moment, the crab man was lying quietly on the bed, and he hadn't opened his eyes yet.

Dr. Gordon said to the crab man, "It's time to get up, crab man! Go! Wake me up, crab man!"

An assistant of Dr. Gordon immediately walked to the crab man and injected a wake-up drug for the crab man.

In the blink of an eye, the crab man opened his eyes.

"Crab man, can you hear me?"

"Yes, Dr. Gordon!"

"Crab man! From today on, you will obey my orders, and work hard for me in the future!"

"Yes, Dr. Gordon."

"Crab man, go down and get used to your body first! After you get used to it, I have a task for you to complete!"

"Yes! Dr. Gordon!"

Two assistants of Dr. Gordon left with the crab man.

That night, Lu Nian lay on the sofa, thinking.

Lu Nian personally experienced another robbery today.

Although this time, the major incident was reduced to a minor one, but this matter still left a small shadow in Lu Nian's heart.

"Why are there good people and bad people in this world? John and Sam, strictly speaking, are not bad people, their nature is not bad, and their intentions are good, but they did do bad things. Then, they Are you two bad guys? I helped a bad guy, so am I also a bad guy? "

The 16-year-old Lu Nian was swayed by the concept of "good or bad" all night.
