Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 182 - 174: Smart Person
The boss of the Salvation Army, somewhat desperate.
Reluctantly, he threw his belongings onto the boat, and hurriedly boarded it.
The scholarly-looking man beside him tossed his backpack onto the small boat, at the moment the backpack was thrown.
Thud!
The small boat suddenly sank a bit, and the scholarly man pushed it forward a bit more.
The small boat was already in water about half a meter deep, and the scholarly man hastily climbed aboard.
But as he climbed aboard, the small boat seemed unable to bear the weight of the heavy backpack and two adults, showing some signs of tilting.
Upon seeing this, the boss of the Salvation Army glanced at the backpack behind him, then at the scholarly man who had just boarded the boat.
Without any hesitation, he kicked forward.
The scholarly man was caught off guard, a kick landed on his back, and with his unstable seating, he was kicked down by the boss of the Salvation Army.
Splash!
The scholarly man looked at the boss incredulously, thinking, why did he kick him down?
He tried to get back on the boat, but the boss of the Salvation Army pointed a gun at him, his other hand furiously rowing with the paddle.
He should have bought an electric one, damn it!
The scholarly man stopped moving forward, looking at the muzzle of the gun.
His eyes wide, as if saying: Boss, don't leave me behind.
Meanwhile, behind them, Li Gang was nearly at the riverside, he saw two people by the river, preparing to escape by boat.
He lifted his submachine gun, and fired directly.
The scholarly man was hit by bullets directly! With widened eyes filled with pleading and confusion: Previously, the boss clearly said he would take me with him!
Until death he could not understand, until death he could not rest.
The position of the boss of the Salvation Army was blocked by the scholarly man, seeing the scholarly man collapse a few meters away, and seeing Li Gang now less than 20 meters away.
His anxiety grew, pulling out a handgun and firing two shots towards Li Gang.
"Dodge!" Li Gang saw the boss of the Salvation Army pull out a handgun and shouted loudly.
Song Min and others quickly lay down.
The bullets hit a tree about 10 meters away from them, at that moment, their lying down seemed somewhat superfluous.
Those two shots hit nothing, the boss of the Salvation Army seldom used guns, his marksmanship was simply poor. Moreover, he was on the boat, which was shaking, making it even easier for the shots to go astray.
The boss of the Salvation Army didn't intend to hit them, he just hoped to slow down their approach.
After two shots, he continued furiously to row, the small boat drifted forward along the river.
Seeing the boss of the Salvation Army fire two stray shots, Li Gang was about to shoot when he heard the bang of a gunshot.
It was Song Min!
After lying down, she found a suitable position and aimed at the boss of the Salvation Army, firing her gun.
Ah!
The bullet hit the boss of the Salvation Army directly in the shoulder blade, causing him to fall directly into the river.
This river, nearly 100 meters wide, had somewhat turbulent waters.
Seeing this, Li Gang became anxious and ran forward.
By the riverside, there was a series of suspended wooden walkways, where many people walked and played before the apocalypse.
Li Gang aimed his gun at the spot where the boss of the Salvation Army had just fallen, and fired several more shots.
On the river surface, there were no traces for a moment.
10 seconds.
Li Gang followed the direction the river flowed downward, running.
The river was turbulent, and it was very possible that the boss of the Salvation Army had been carried downstream after falling from the boat.
Li Gang ran, keeping his eyes on the river. Song Min and the others followed behind him.
20 seconds, Li Gang had already run more than a hundred meters along the river.
There was still no one on the river surface.
30 seconds, Li Gang continued running forward along the river.
A normal person can hold their breath for about 60 seconds, but in this turbulent river, it would definitely be less.
Suddenly, Song Min, following behind Li Gang, instantaneously turned her head back, shifting her attention to look at the spot they were previously.
She ran in the opposite direction of the river's flow.
"Um, Sister Song?" the optimistic Xiao Han called out beside her.
Song Min ignored her and directly ran towards the place where Li Gang and the others had been.
Li Gang, hearing the noise, turned around to glance at Song Min, somewhat puzzled, but he didn't stop his steps and continued running downstream.
40 seconds, there was still no sign of that person. Suddenly, he realized why Song Min had run in the opposite direction.
According to normal logic, after jumping into the river, one would definitely swim downstream, which saves energy and is faster.
Swimming against the current, in this turbulent river, would be exhausting.
Moreover, considering the leader of the Salvation Army had just rowed a boat downstream, under the inertia of thinking, Li Gang and his team would definitely assume the leader of the Salvation Army would swim downstream.
Therefore, the leader of the Salvation Army, knowing this, would very likely do the opposite!
Swimming upstream against the current.
Even if he couldn't swim far upstream, just swimming against the river to stay in place, even slowing down the force of the river carrying him downstream.

While Li Gang and his team ran downstream, focusing their attention in the downstream direction, it was very possible for the leader of the Salvation Army to directly land ashore. And escape!
Realizing all this, Li Gang said to Xiao Han and the others, "You continue chasing downstream. If you see anyone emerging from the water, shoot to kill!"
He had just thought of the high possibility of the leader of the Salvation Army swimming upstream.
However, there is another possibility that the leader of the Salvation Army, being an exceptional swimmer, was still heading downstream.
Hearing Li Gang's words, Xiao Han and the others nodded and continued running downstream with their handguns.
Li Gang ran upstream.
60 seconds had passed.
For Song Min, she had already been running towards upstream for 30 seconds.
At this moment, she was close to reaching the spot where they had stayed earlier. Song Min ran ten meters upstream, then suddenly stopped, intensely focusing on the river surface ahead.
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 4 seconds, as Song Min was unsure whether to check further upstream.
About 5 meters from the riverbank, a dark spot appeared.
Song Min took a few more steps towards it, standing by the bank with her submachine gun ready.
Staring intensely at the river surface.
Two more seconds passed. 3 meters away from the bank, with a splash, a head emerged.
The leader of the Salvation Army had just surfaced and immediately looked towards the downstream left, then moved to the right, checking the spot where they had left the scholarly man.
No one there! Probably they're still searching downstream for me.
Huff! Puff! Huff! Puff!
Gasping loudly, a slight smile appeared on his face, which was also somewhat pale.
Good thing I was clever!
Slowly, he started to stand up, as he was not far from the shore and the water wasn't deep, less than a meter.
Half of his body slowly emerged above the water surface. One of his arms trembled, blood trickling down from his shoulder.
His gaze continued moving to the right!
Less than 8 meters away, a woman was holding a submachine gun aimed at him.
The smile on his face instantly froze, his pupils slightly constricted, eyes filled with intense shock!
The expressions on his face were incredibly vivid!
