ultimate cannon fodder

“The new store has opened, with 20% off everything, don’t miss it if you pass by...”

Chen Lei was wearing an inflatable doll, shouting at passers-by and shoving leaflets into their hands at the right time. Although the weather was cold, she was so hot that she was wrapped in an inflatable doll. She was sweating like she was in a sauna. After almost an hour, she had to take off her hood to rest, take a few breaths, and then continue working. She needed to work at such a high load for more than twelve hours a day just to have enough food and clothing. She still has a place to live, but she still cherishes this opportunity very much. If the owner of this store hadn't come up with some retro-style promotion on a whim, she might still be living on the streets with a full meal and no idea where to go tomorrow. .

Although this day came unexpectedly, she had actually been mentally prepared for it. She was just a parasite relying on Ma Jianyao for survival in the Federation, and was worthless. Once the big tree of Ma Jianyao collapsed, she would immediately lose her support. Therefore, when she was kicked out of her small but warm home by a vicious person, she didn't care to feel sad, let alone blame others, but she was strong and tried every means to survive.

But although the Federation is large, there is no place for her to settle down. With the highly developed science and technology, the demand and dependence on manpower in all walks of life has been reduced to a minimum. In addition, she not only does not have the educational background of this era, she does not even have a formal identity. None, so she ran into obstacles everywhere. In the past six months, she had worked many jobs to make a living, and even thought about selling her body to make money. But compared to modern people who have been genetically beautified, no matter her appearance or body shape There is no advantage at all. All she can do is hard and dirty work that no one else is willing to do. Even so, sometimes she doesn't get a penny in pay after a hard day's work. If she hadn't been in the experiment She may not be able to persevere despite the difficult experience of surviving on the field.

In fact, in addition to Ma Jianyao, she also knows several people in the Federation, such as the superior Councilor Tang, Du Xinyue from the Realm Gate, and even Liu Yan who helped get her out of the experimental site, but she knows very well , the reason why these people pay attention to her is nothing more than Ma Jianyao. Without Ma Jianyao, she is just an irrelevant person, and no one will care about her life or death.

But no matter how difficult it is, compared with the experimental field, this place is still a paradise. At least you won't worry about when you will die.

Feeling that someone was walking in front of her, Chen Lei tried her best to get rid of all the messy thoughts in her mind, then she cheered up and said with a sweet smile: "The new store is open, 20% off..." Before she could finish her words, she heard The visitor asked aloud: "Are you Chen Lei?"

Chen Lei was stunned for a moment, raised her head and looked at the other person, only to find that it was an extremely unfamiliar face, about thirty years old, wearing a black fitted suit, her hair was neatly combed, and she was holding a black His briefcase looks like that of a common white-collar worker in an office building. Due to genetic optimization, he has big eyes, a tall nose, and a very delicate appearance. He also has a gentle and warm smile at the corner of his mouth, which makes it easy for him to impress others. impression.

"I am, who are you," Chen Lei responded stammering. She didn't know why, but when facing these genetically optimized Federation people, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of herself. I even feel that I am out of tune with this society.

"Haha, it's great to find you," the other party smiled with relief, and then said: "My name is Zhang Jiaming, and I am a lawyer. Entrusted by my client, part of the property will be transferred to your name. Could you please come back to the law firm with me to go through the formalities?"

"What, wealth, property?" Chen Lei was stunned immediately and couldn't recover for a while. Apart from Ma Jianyao, she had no relatives in the federation. Who would transfer the property to her own name? What on earth is going on? , could it be that this lawyer has found the wrong person?

"You bastard want to be lazy again, don't you? If I hadn't given you food, you would have starved to death on the street. If you don't work hard, I won't take care of you..." At this time, A woman in her forties who looked average but had a waist as tall as a bucket came out of the store with a dark face and a curse. It was obvious that she was the proprietress of this store.

Chen Lei couldn't help but trembled, with a look of horror on her face, but she didn't dare to dodge. For her, being beaten and scolded has become a common occurrence, but if she leaves here, she doesn't know where else she can go. To live, she could only swallow her anger.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Jiaming's originally kind and friendly face suddenly turned pale, as if his face had changed. He stepped forward to block Chen Lei, and scolded the landlady fiercely: "I am Ms. Chen Lei's personal Lawyer, your words and deeds just now have caused serious reputational infringement and mental harm to my client. If you don’t apologize to my client and obtain her understanding, I will definitely sue you and your family will be destroyed.”

"Private lawyer," the landlady opened her mouth in surprise, and subconsciously wanted to sarcastically say something, but when she saw Zhang Jiaming's outfit, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and asked cautiously: "Mr. Lawyer, did I hear you right? Said you were her personal lawyer,"

In the federation, lawyers are a very special profession. Even government officials are not willing to provoke lawyers, because lawyers have powers that ordinary people do not have in many aspects. If you really want to go to court with lawyers, there will be absolutely no good results. Of course, lawyers The fees are often very high, and most people simply cannot afford to hire a lawyer, let alone a private lawyer. Therefore, she really finds it a bit incredible.

"You heard it right, this is my lawyer's card." When facing Chen Lei, Zhang Jiaming was as warm as a spring breeze, but when facing the landlady, he was arrogant and disdainful. He took out a thin card from his pocket. The card was handed to her and waved in front of her eyes. When the landlady saw it, her eyes immediately straightened.

Although the card is thin, it represents the highest technology of the Federation. The data stored in it is very rich, and because the data is stored on the brain, no one can tamper with it. The boss lady can see clearly that there are not only federal political and legal agencies and lawyers on it. The certification of the association also clearly indicates that the lawyer named Zhang Jiaming is a senior lawyer of Evergrande Law Firm, and Evergrande Law Firm is well-known throughout the federation, even if she does not care about national affairs. The common people have also heard that the lawyers in this law firm only serve the powerful and wealthy, and as long as they take action, there is no case that cannot be won.

"Lawyer Zhang, I'm really sorry. Look, I'm really ignorant. I offend you so much. I offend you so much." After confirming the identity of the other party's lawyer, the boss lady's attitude was so servile that she almost smiled. Damn, he said with a nod and bow, but he glanced at the frightened Chen Lei, and he didn't think she was a rich person, and he carefully apologized and said with a smile: "She is just a gangster who doesn't even have a formal identity, how could she be?" Your client,"

Zhang Jiaming sneered: "You are just looking down on others. Ms. Chen Lei's identity certificate has been obtained. At the same time, as long as she signs, she can immediately own property worth more than 30 million, including real estate and securities. "

"Three, more than thirty million..." The landlady was so shocked that her voice changed, and the eyes she looked at Chen Lei couldn't hide the jealousy and jealousy. Even though she was the landlady, she was actually far less glamorous. In order to open this store, she borrowed a lot of money from the bank. The heavy debt and rent made her breathless. After working hard for so many years, except for the current store, she had almost nothing. She can't even afford a house, and she still lives in a low-rent house like a pigeon cage. However, Chen Lei, who she drank and waved away, can immediately own a property worth more than 30 million yuan. This makes her feel embarrassed. But Chen Lei She is not pretty, and can be said to be useless except for being hardworking. Who would give her such a large fortune? Could it be that she is the illegitimate daughter of a rich man? But the genes of modern people have been optimized, so how is it possible? To give birth to such an ugly monster.

Not to mention the boss lady, even Chen Lei was so surprised that she was speechless. She never imagined that the identity problem that had been bothering her would not only be solved, but she would also suddenly gain more than 30 million yuan in property. It can be said that overnight Suddenly rich, but who could it be? Don't really find the wrong person. Let yourself be happy for a while. Countless thoughts went through her mind for a while, and her face was uncertain. Even the boss's wife apologized to herself. They were completely unaware of it, which made the landlady feel uneasy. She was worried that Chen Lei would hold a grudge and ask her lawyer to take her to court.

"Ms. Chen Lei, please come with me. The car is already waiting. This place is not suitable for a person of your status. After signing, I will take you to see your house. Your house is in the garage." The environment in the Blue Zone is very good, you will definitely like it..." Zhang Jiaming said diligently, with a smile on his face, as if he was facing a noble princess.

Only then did Chen Lei come back to her senses, grabbed his arm and asked eagerly: "Who entrusted you to come here? Is it Ma Jianyao? Has he come back? Where is he?" When speaking, her eyes were full of She burst into tears and wanted to cry but couldn't. Apart from Ma Jianyao, she couldn't think of anyone else who would care about such a dispensable person like herself. And this figure she once thought she had forgotten seemed to disappear in an instant. It filled her heart.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Chen Lei, the client wants us to keep it secret, so I can't tell you his identity," Zhang Jiaming said with a polite and patient smile, "but my client left a letter. I want you to sign it after you sign it." I can't give it to you until I write it. After you read it, won't you know what's going on?"

It wasn't until the luxury car carrying Chen Lei disappeared into the night that the proprietress sighed inexplicably: "Why don't I share in such a good thing? I can't compare to that stinky girl."
