MTL - I’m the City Lord of the Last Days-Chapter 5
He Qianshan has already discovered that many surviving humans have a hurdle in attacking zombies. Some are out of fear, and some are out of hope that they will get better.
But this time He Qianshan was too worried. Song Xingcheng, who had read the novel in his dream, had long accepted the reality, and knew that the end of the world had come, and the process of zombification was irreversible.
So Song Xingcheng didn't hesitate, lowered the car window, set up the rifle, held his breath, aimed at the head of the zombie in the distance, and pulled the trigger.
The gun equipped with a noise suppressor made a "pounce" sound. Song Xingcheng hurriedly checked the result of the attack, ignoring his sore shoulder from the recoil.
The shaking of the hand at the moment of shooting caused the bullet that was originally aimed at the zombie's head to deviate, but it happened to land on the neck of the zombie, and the head of the zombie was separated from the body with one shot.
Song Xingcheng: Is that okay? !
Han Qinmin and Zheng Nianhao in the front row cast admiring glances, thinking that Song Xingcheng was a sharpshooter like their boss, and this would explain why the boss bothered to win him over.
Song Xingcheng knew about his own family affairs, he was just playing it wrong, and he could only pat his head in embarrassment when he saw this.
"good."
He Qianshan praised affirmatively, he praised Song Xingcheng for shooting decisively, which shows that he has a clear understanding of reality.
Han Qinmin drove the car to the side of the fallen zombie. In a short time, most of the zombie's body had dissipated.
Song Xingcheng got out of the car, and after the zombie's rotting body completely dissipated, imitating He Qianshan's action, using a wet towel to pick up the energy beads on the ground, and putting them into the transparent water cup prepared in advance.
The energy beads fell into the cup, making a crisp "ding" sound.
Song Xingcheng tightened the lid of the cup, sat back in the car, raised the water cup to observe the pearl-sized transparent energy beads, and their eyes met.
The energy beads are pure, transparent, smooth and round, completely unable to connect with the dirty and rancid zombies, it is really miraculous.
"Keep your cup safe by yourself, take it with you and don't lose it." He Qianshan who was next to him suddenly said.
He Qianshan knows that energy beads are not only harmless to human beings, but are beneficial, and carrying them with him can slowly improve human physical fitness, but he can't directly come to a conclusion.
Song Xingcheng also learned this information from the novel, and didn't think too much about it, and nodded in agreement without even asking why.
As a result, He Qianshan was surprised. He didn't expect Song Xingcheng's reaction to be so straightforward. After all, even the assistant who used to trust him saw him for the first time.
When collecting energy beads, they expressed fierce doubts and opposition.
He Qianshan was fully prepared that the little guy would open his big round eyes and ask him why, but Song Xingcheng stuffed the water glass into the side pocket of his backpack after listening, obviously ready to do what he said, with a little hesitation nothing.
Feeling Song Xingcheng's complete trust, He Qianshan's eyes couldn't help but become more gentle.
In fact, Song Xingcheng was eager to check the operation panel of the city management system that popped up automatically after getting the energy beads. The number of energy points displayed in the upper right corner of the panel had changed from 0 to 1.
The relaxed and simple battle process dissipated a lot of tension and panic in Song Xingcheng's heart, and the newly acquired energy points also made him more courageous to go out and fight.
At this time, the off-road vehicle drove to Xinghu Lake, and drove along the tree-lined road beside Xinghu Lake to the gate of the villa area. Song Xingcheng stared at the simple wooden house of level 1 built on the grass outside the car window, his eyes sparkling.
In the novel, "Song Xingcheng" and Wu Jingran Su Xin'er, who was taken in, hid at home for more than a week. After spending most of their food, they had to go out to collect supplies and work together to kill the zombies blocking the door. The management system is passively opened for the first time.
It's a pity that "Song Xingcheng" was restricted by the so-called "friends", and the city's development was extremely slow. When it was taken away from Mian'an City, the city developed to level 2.
But the reality and the novel are different from the beginning. On the first day of the end of the world, the first system residence has landed, and there are no hostile residents in the house. Song Xingcheng also walked out of the house, successfully borrowed weapons, and even took the initiative to attack. Kill zombies to collect energy beads...
Song Xingcheng is looking forward to it, adding up a little bit of changes, will the final ending be completely different?
The off-road vehicle drove to the gate of the Yamu villa area, and the railing was lifted automatically. Song Xingcheng noticed that the security room next to him was in chaos. There was no security guard or zombie in sight.
After driving out of the private road in the community and turning onto the public road, Song Xingcheng saw the real apocalyptic scene.
There are almost no surviving humans on the road, and they should all be hiding. Only the zombies are wandering around swaggeringly. Occasionally, vehicles rushing to escape from the city roar past, which will trigger eager pursuit of the roadside zombies, but most of them only chase for a few meters. Lost the target again and continued to wander.
The road conditions were not good, and many vehicles in serial collisions blocked the road, but no one dealt with them, so more and more vehicles were involved in the accident, and the road was more and more blocked.
Some road sections even have to use green belts or even sidewalks to pass. Even if the chassis of the off-road vehicle is high, Han Qin
Min drove the car out of the car, and it usually only took about ten minutes to travel, but it took half an hour to finally arrive at the Duode supermarket.
During the entire journey, only He Qianshan shot and attacked twice, both of which were to rescue passers-by who were accidentally seen being chased by zombies. The rest of the time, he focused on driving, and no zombies could catch up to their car.
After finally arriving at the destination, Song Xingcheng noticed that the glass door of the supermarket had been violently smashed, and he could vaguely see the chaos in the supermarket.
I just don't know if the chaos was caused by the customers who got up early to visit the supermarket when the mutation happened, or if there were quick-response survivors who came to search the supermarket, or both.
Han Qinmin drove past the gate of the supermarket but did not stop. Instead, he went around to the unloading area behind the supermarket and stopped in front of a small gate marked "Employee Passage".
Song Xingcheng got out of the car, but saw that He Qianshan was not in a hurry to go into the supermarket to find supplies, but was picking and choosing from a row of trucks parked in the unloading area.
Song Xingcheng was stunned for a moment and then realized, oh, yes, on the return journey, driving a truck can indeed carry more supplies than an off-road vehicle.
After choosing the truck, Zheng Nianhao entered the password to open the closed staff access door, and a group of four people entered the building.
He Qianshan was the first to walk in the front. Seeing a zombie was just one shot, and he never needed a second shot to deal with it. Zheng Nianhao followed behind to help pick up the energy beads. The four of them usually went all the way without hindrance, and soon found the person in the supermarket warehouse. door.
The warehouse door was also locked with a code, but the door didn't open after Zheng Nianhao entered the code. Confused, Zheng Nianhao pushed the door vigorously, and heard uncontrollable screams of horror from inside the door.
"...we are human beings."
After a brief pause, Zheng Nianhao yelled at the crack of the warehouse door, and soon matched up with the manager of the supermarket hiding in the warehouse.
Knowing that his immediate boss was waiting outside the door, no matter how reluctant he was, the manager of the supermarket who was hiding in the warehouse had to order people to remove the obstacles against the warehouse door and open the heavy warehouse door.
The survivors hiding in the warehouse hid behind the cargo boxes in fear. The round supermarket manager with the Mediterranean Sea above his head could not hide, so he was highlighted and was wiping the cold sweat off his head with a tissue.
The manager of the supermarket immediately recognized He Qianshan, the immediate boss of his immediate boss, and saw the gun in He Qianshan's hand at the second glance, and immediately burst out with a strong desire to survive, and rushed to He Qianshan's side in three steps at a time. He bowed his head and said flatteringly:
"Mr. He! You see, I am wronged by this matter now...Mr. He, it's really not that I am not good at management..."
He Qianshan
A gesture to stop Manager Yuanrun's sincere review did not imply accountability. After all, the end of the world is a natural disaster rather than a man-made disaster. It is an accident of force majeure, and no one wants to see it.
He Qianshan glanced at the more than 30 employees and more than 20 customers hiding in the warehouse, and calmly announced:
"Now I need people to help carry the goods. I will give you weapons or **** them home as a reward. Those who are willing can stand up."
The survivors who were hiding stared at He Qianshan from the gap, unable to react at all after hearing his words.
Fortunately, someone always responded quickly, and soon a middle-aged employee took the initiative to stand up.
Ever since a major accident happened in the morning and he hid in the warehouse of the supermarket, Zhao Zhenhai wanted to go home and visit his family every second, but he couldn't get through to his family even when the mobile phone still had signal, so he was very anxious and didn't dare to act rashly.
The horrifying news on the Internet and the horrified screams from outside the warehouse made the survivors who hid in the warehouse afraid to come out like frightened birds. Occasionally someone proposed to open the door and leave, which would lead to unanimous siege by others.
The arrival of He Qianshan and others made Zhao Zhenhai realize that this might be the best chance to leave, so he was the first to stand up and sign up to express his willingness to obey the arrangement and help carry the goods.
Someone started, and more than a dozen other employees stood up one after another, and even three customers stood up. The manager of the supermarket even said that he would definitely handle the errands assigned by Mr. He.
Most of the employees who stood up were old employees of Duode Supermarket, and they had a natural foundation of trust in their old owner, He's Group. Some timid new employees and some customers didn't make any moves, so it didn't matter to He Qianshan, as there were enough people.
He Qianshan left Zheng Nianhao in charge of dispatching the manpower to carry the supplies, and asked the supermarket manager to fully cooperate with Zheng Nianhao's command, and left the storage area with Song Xingcheng and Han Qinmin.
***
As soon as the big boss left, the manager of the supermarket immediately approached Zheng Nianhao mellowly, and smiled flatteringly and said, "Tezhu Zheng, if you have anything to do, just tell me, and I promise to handle it properly for you, hehe."
"Then I won't be polite, Manager Ma."
Zheng Nianhao wore gold-rimmed glasses, smiled gracefully, took out a few long lists from his backpack, and immediately began to arrange tasks for everyone.
Following Zheng Nianhao's command, large boxes of food, drinking water, frozen meat, and various daily necessities in the supermarket warehouse are generally moved to trucks, including a refrigerated truck dedicated to storing frozen products.
When Manager Ma himself received the moving task, he was stunned for a moment.
Because I just need to stand by the side and direct, but as soon as my suspicious eyes met Zheng Tezhu, I didn't dare to worry about it, and I honestly went to help carry the supplies to the cart, and then pushed the cart to the cart. Beside the truck.
However, every time he passed Zheng Nianhao back and forth, Manager Ma always raced against the clock to find out what Zheng Nianhao said:
"Special Assistant Zheng, how will Mr. He plan to arrange us?"
"Special Assistant Zheng, is the guy in your hand real? Mr. He said that giving us weapons is giving us guns?"
"Zheng Special Assistant, can you send me home first, and then I will take my family and go to Mr. He?"
…
Zheng Nianhao was busy commanding and dispatching, and occasionally responded briefly. As a result, Manager Ma asked more and more questions, and the other people around who helped carry them all listened, and the pace of work slowed down.
Zheng Nianhao finally became impatient with the question, and he glanced at Manager Ma who was next to him again with a half-smile, until he immediately shut up.
