Capítulo 1188: Chapter 1188: Dark Descent (Part 8)
The dusk gradually deepened, and the scenery on both sides of the road inexplicably exuded a sense of desolation.
The baby inside the car was already asleep, and the compartnt fell into silence.
Chuzheng squinted for half an hour, and when the woman saw her awake, she cautiously handed over so food: “Thank you.”
Chuzheng didn’t refuse, taking it.
Fair exchange, there’s no such thing as free contribution in this world.
Seeing this, the woman actually breathed a sigh of relief and boldly asked, “Do you have any milk left? Can I trade with you?”
In the whole convoy, there were people with children, but no infants, so no one had things like formula.
The woman had asked around before.
She was already feeling desperate, not expecting that the two little girls arranged by the rescue team would actually have milk.
The man and woman seed to be a couple, but they didn’t talk much, and now the man sullenly chid in: “If you’re willing to trade, we can give you more.”
Chuzheng reached into the backpack, Jiang Rushuang only felt the backpack had beco heavier.
Chuzheng turned her head and gazed indifferently at the scenery outside the window.
Jiang Rushuang: “…”
After Jiang Rushuang finished trading food with the woman, she handed so over: “Xiao Chu, have a bite?”
“You eat it yourself.”
“Aren’t you hungry?”
“Not hungry.”
“Oh.”
It’s been so long, and the Bastard still hasn’t issued any missions, which is quite abnormal.
[Miss Sis, do you want to squander like this? Miss Sis, I didn’t expect you to have such awareness. Do you believe now that money really allows you to do whatever you want…]
No!
Not !
I didn’t!
Shut up!
[…]
–
The convoy traveled on one side, leaving the other side open so they could turn around in case of ergency.
Thus, Chuzheng watched as the off-road vehicle drove fast and slow on the other lane.
Soone occupying a lane, so bold and arrogant.
Everyone found it strange, but no one dared to drive around like him.
A car ahead slowly backed up, forcing the off-road vehicle to stop.
Then Chuzheng saw the car fell to the back, eventually disappearing.
–
The next day they encountered another wave of survivors, and since there weren’t enough vehicles, soone got shoved into Chuzheng’s car.
A woman about forty, with dark skin and a bit fat, instantly squeezed Jiang Rushuang into a ball.
The person was naturally unaware, using her body mass to squeeze left and right, trying to occupy more space.
Jiang Rushuang: “…”
The woman holding the baby in front turned around: “Don’t take so much space, you’re squishing her.”
The woman glaring: “What do you an? Calling fat?” Her loud voice left her ears buzzing after yelling.
“No, I’m just asking you not to take so much space.”
The unreasonable woman retorted, “Aren’t you calling fat then? What’s wrong, discriminating against Fatty!”
“How could you be like this!” The woman frowned.
Seeing the argunt brewing, Jiang Rushuang quickly said: “It’s alright, it’s alright, I’m small and don’t take space.”
The woman imdiately felt justified, snorting coldly with pride.
Chuzheng stayed silent, just making so room for Jiang Rushuang.
This wasn’t her vehicle; she wasn’t in a position to do anything nor needed to.
The woman didn’t make a fuss afterward, slept soundly, woke up looking at the speeding scenery outside the window, and then started inspecting inside the car.
She spotted the food placed up front.
“Oh, you still have food, give so.”
The woman directly reached out to grab it.
The woman obviously didn’t expect such a move, montarily not reacting.
By the ti she reacted, the woman had already started eating.
The woman was so mad her face turned red: “How could you do this, that’s our food!”
She tried to grab the food back, but the woman refused, and the two started shoving, while the man driving could only use one hand to help his wife.
Jiang Rushuang gulped.
“Xiao Chu, this woman is… so shaless?”
Chuzheng felt her head aching from their arguing, the baby crying, and the car swerving.
She didn’t want to die.
So she pulled Jiang Rushuang aside, reached out, and snatched the bag of food.
The woman only defended against the couple in front, not expecting Chuzheng to suddenly act, unguarded.
“What are you doing, you brat…”
“Say one more word.”
The woman clung to the car door in terror, her body trembling, reflected in the dark muzzle in her eyes.
Chuzheng tossed the food back to the couple in front.
The woman gulped: “You… you dare to shoot?”
“Why wouldn’t I? In these tis, if I kill you and toss you out unnoticed, who knows you’re dead.” Chuzheng spoke blandly.
“…”
The woman seemingly imagined that scenario, shivering, unable to speak.
Chuzheng continued: “Get off the car when we rest. Try getting on again, and I can’t ensure that the bullets wouldn’t hit you.”
“Got it?”
Cold sweat dripped from the woman’s forehead, she nodded her understanding vigorously.
Chuzheng put the weapon away.
The woman didn’t dare cause trouble, clinging to the car door, quiet as a chicken.
See!
It takes forceful suppression!
People like her bully the weak and fear the strong.
You have to be fiercer.
–
Up ahead they called for rest, the woman imdiately pushed open the door to get off, shouting, “Murder, murder! Soldier, murder! Help !”
The woman and man clearly panicked.
Chuzheng remained indifferent, even slightly wanting to blow the woman’s head off.
But she was a good person, couldn’t be so crude.
Stay calm.
Be a good person.
Try!
You can do it!
The woman quickly returned with the rescue team, pointing at the car: “It’s them, they’re trying to kill .”
“You’re slandering, you clearly grabbed the food first.” Jiang Rushuang couldn’t help but argue.
The woman imdiately began shouting again: “I didn’t, she’s lying, they’re together trying to kill . Soldier, they have weapons.”
The rescue team: “…”
What’s strange about having weapons.
Order had already collapsed.
They didn’t really want to intervene, but the woman’s loud voice could be heard by zombies.
“What’s the commotion about?”
The captain arrived upon hearing.
The people brought by the woman gave way to him, and she imdiately redirected her complaint, repeating the entire story without even bothering to change words.
The captain glanced at Chuzheng: “I gave her the weapon.”
The woman: “…”
After understanding the situation, the captain handed the woman over to his subordinates.
The captain exchanged two polite words with Chuzheng.
Soone ca to report.
“Captain, we’ve selected the people, ready to depart anyti.”
“Okay, you head out first.” The captain nodded, then instructed those beside him: “Everyone rest in place. If we’re not back before dawn tomorrow, head back to the base.”
Chuzheng proactively asked: “Where are you going?”
The captain explained: “We’ll go check a county up ahead, see if there are any survivors, and collect so supplies.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“…”
The surprise was so sudden, the captain was a bit taken aback.
He knew Chuzheng was quite capable; having her join was certainly welcod by the captain.
