Chapter 13 Father
Chapter 13 Father
"Dad, I can't breathe." Maurice whispered, grabbing the hem of the man who was holding him tightly.
"My Maurice...it's great to see you again..." The man didn't cry, but his eyes were already red, and his arms were holding the treasure in his life unabated.
It took a long time before Bosen let go of his son who had been in a daze after being hugged for too long, and began to look him up and down.
There are no missing arms or legs, and he looks good, and looks a little fatter than before.
"It seems that you take good care of yourself... Are you hungry? Dad has something to eat here." Bosen knew that his son was either very hungry or a little hungry every day, so he had already made preparations.
Maurice hesitated, and finally shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry, Dad, you can eat by yourself."
Bosen shed tears in an instant, hugged his slender son again even though he was a little fatter, and said with a sob: "Baby won't eat anymore... You are sensible, but Dad doesn't want you like this, I can afford you !"
Maurice was greatly moved. Although he thought it was a bit funny, his father's love still warmed his heart.
So when Bosen told him that he was not only a space power user but also the manager of the material mobilization of the entire base, Morris said cheerfully: "Dad, I want to eat cream biscuits~"
With a happy face, Bosen took out a package from the space and opened it to feed, and then reported his food reserves in passing.
Maurice felt that his father must have exchanged all other benefits for food, and it was terrible to hoard so much food when he was not sure whether he would survive!
The father and son met and spent more than an hour together before Bosen hurried to work again and let Morris rest in his residence.
Not only did Morris not sleep, but it was also difficult to feel tired, so instead of staying in the room obediently, he went out and walked around the base.
Of course, he didn't mean to wander around, but as soon as he went out, he prayed that he would find the place where the work tasks were issued in the base immediately, get a job that was not too troublesome, and then go back to the house and sit in a daze.
Morris doesn't like work, especially work that has nothing to do with his only hobby. Although he wants to find a job now, it is probably a whim caused by the extreme chaos of life in recent days. Even he himself feels that he can't hold on for too long.
So he just wandered around the base for a while, didn't find a place, so he went back to "rest" with peace of mind, while waiting for food - he was already hungry at this time.
Just as Maurice was lying in bed pretending to be asleep, he heard someone knocking on the door.
Although he was awake as always, he still went to open the door with a bit of getting up.
Standing outside the door was a blond young man wearing a plaid shirt and a blue tie. When he saw Morris, he showed a formulaic smile and introduced himself: "Good afternoon, I'm Wilson from the search department. Are you Maurice Chuck?"
Morris blinked and nodded.
Wilson said: "It's like this. Due to the sudden rise and fall in temperature yesterday, many people who were frightened or injured and hadn't recovered showed symptoms of cold and fever, and some people had severe diarrhea. In the base There's not enough medicine, and you're free to move in and out of the city, so we're hoping you'll bring some medicine to the base."
After finishing speaking, Wilson took out a list from his breast pocket and handed it to Morris, saying: "These are more needed by the base, please collect as many as possible."
Morris took the list and asked, "What about the reward?"
"Twice the food supply and the same share of fresh water as your father."
Morris had no idea about these, and was too lazy to fight for something, so he accepted the commission and asked, "Then when shall I go?"
Wilson pushed his blue-rimmed glasses and said with a smile, "Now, the sooner the better."
