Coming out of the shelter, Lu Buping looked around.

That's when he discovered that Vault 118 had been built under an abandoned public parking lot. There are a large number of collapsed houses and dilapidated and rusty vehicles in the surrounding area, and you can vaguely see the traces of modern industry in the glory days.

Now these are 200-year-old antiques, and they are not as valuable as a piece of fine iron.

The sun in the sky was shining dimly, and it was approaching evening. The sound of wild beasts chirping from time to time in the distance made the atmosphere even more depressing.

Several members of the convoy patrolled the gates, and last week's fighting left them with a blanket of soldiers for fear of a homeless intrusion.

Lu Buping asked for directions, and the camp of the displaced people was directly south of the shelter, about two kilometers away from here.

At this time, Lu Buping's physical fitness was close to the peak of human beings, and it took about three minutes to gallop all the way south, and then he heard the sound of a bustling crowd in front of him.

Hide in an abandoned building and look outside. The so-called camp camp is made up of twenty or thirty tents, which can roughly accommodate more than 100 people. Inside, there were men, women, and children, and on a firewood made of firewood lay old iron pots, boiling unknown paste-like food.

The perimeter of the camp was barbed with barbed wire, and some strong men armed with guns guarded the camp, and the whole camp appeared to be relatively orderly.

What caught Lu Buping's attention was that these homeless people were severely malnourished due to long-term lack of food, and they all looked yellow and thin. But the guns in their hands looked brand new, presumably the equipment that Diana had given them.

After looking around the perimeter, there was no trace of Levy. Where did this kid go? Lu Buping felt that the situation was developing in an unexpected direction.

In their current form, these homeless people have not undergone orthodox training, and their physique is not as thin as ordinary people. With Lu Buping's skills at this time, as long as he dodges flexibly, he can retreat with his whole body even if he fights the entire camp head-on.

If you want to find out the news inside, you have to go deep into the gathering place, Lu Buping does not plan to use the identity of the shelter this time, but prepares to disguise himself as a homeless person to infiltrate the camp.

Lu Buping wiped a handful on the ground with his hand and smeared the gray-black dirt on his face. Then he found some random rags around and wrapped himself from head to toe. He himself has thin cheeks, and when he dresses up like this, he looks even more homeless than a homeless.

After all, Lu Buping also graduated from the waste scavenging department, so he didn't have any pressure on this kind of disguise, so he swaggered towards the camp.

"Stop, whoever!" The man with the gun found Lu Buping walking in the distance, and subconsciously raised the weapon, if you look closely, his hand holding the gun is still trembling slightly.

Lu Buping stood still, raised his hands high to show that he had no weapons, and shouted at the other party: "I arrived here when I heard the radio, are you receiving displaced people?" ”

The man heard Lu Buping's voice and looked at his face again, and after confirming that it was a human, the man with the gun was obviously relieved.

"Not us, but you can wait here for a while, and I'll report to the chief." The man said and ran away towards the camp.

Lu Buping shook his head, the vigilance of these people was too poor. In addition to abundant firepower, he has no combat experience at all, and no matter how well-equipped, he is just an ordinary person.

Just as Lu Buping was standing outside waiting, several camp children ran over and looked at Lu Buping curiously. They watched as they came together and whispered something, and then a child took out a cake from his arms and handed it to Lu Buping.

"Here's for you." The kid said.

The children looked emaciated, with sunken cheeks and bony bones. The bread handed to them was rough, but it was a precious food to fill their stomachs. The child's eyes were a little reluctant, but he still firmly handed it to Lu Buping. In their eyes, Lu Buping is a wanderer from afar, and he needs food even more.

Lu Buping thanked him and took the cake, he didn't want to refuse the kindness of these children. The children were happy, as if they had completed an important mission, and then ran away to play.

Lu Buping looked at the rough food in his hand and was silent for a long time.

In this radiant land, these displaced people still maintain the basic moral bottom line as "people", and only in this way can they teach compassionate children.

Although Lu Buping has always believed that the homeless people have no combat effectiveness, who stipulates that they must become warriors.

They are just ordinary people who are desperately trying to stay alive and keep warm.

If it weren't for the troublemaker of a third party, Diana's proposed trading center model could greatly improve the quality of life of these displaced people. At the same time, more and more people are gathered to form a self-sufficient gathering place.

According to Diana, there was no resistance among the early displaced people. It wasn't until the so-called rumors came out that it led to a confrontation between the two sides. As long as the misunderstanding is resolved, it will be a win-win situation.

Whether it's for the territory of Vault 118, or the future of these human outcasts, or simply for the sake of those young children just now.

The third-party force that instigated in the middle, Lu Buping will uproot it.

Lu Buping carefully took the cake in his hand into his arms and muttered to himself: "It looks like I really have to be a saint." ”

At this time, the man with the gun just now also trotted all the way back, and said breathlessly: "Okay, the leader has agreed to your joining, come with me." ”

As he spoke, he opened the wire fence and let Lu Buping enter.

The two walked side by side, and Lu Buping began to talk: "Have you lived here for a long time, are there any fixed scavenging points around here?" ”

The man was unsuspecting and said what he knew: "Ahem, we've only been here for more than half a month. There's a shelter not far from here, and we've only been able to find it by radio. But be careful, that vault is full of treacherous ghouls. He lied to us that he wanted to live together peacefully, but in fact he wanted to sell us into slavery. ”

"Oh? Who found out about this situation. Lu Buping asked.

"I don't know, everybody says that. They attacked us one night before, and we repelled them. The man said truthfully.

Lu Bu said calmly that these homeless people are afraid that they have been fooled and lame, and if the shelter really wants to attack you, how can they provide guns, it is simply too much. However, judging by the attitude of this man, they genuinely felt that they were the persecuted party, and did not have any concerns about the ghoul race itself.

Who would have expected that what the man said next surprised Lu Buping: "These ghoul bastards, the people who have been attacking us since that night, have already gone missing. When you move in, you have to be careful. ”

According to Diana, the night raid on the homeless people that night was not a refuge. They came to the aid and were then put on a pitch. After that, due to Diana's injury, the entire convoy began to stand guard inside and outside the shelter, and no one carried out a second attack, but instead sent Levy to pacify him.

So what happened to the subsequent disappearances of the displaced people, could it be the revenge of the members of the escort team themselves?

Diana had no reason to lie to herself, and the man in front of her had no reason, but the information on both sides was skewed.

"Here you are, you're staying here today." The two walked to a tent, and the man with the gun pointed inside.

"Thank you, may I ask where the leader lives, I want to visit."

The man pointed to a large modular tent in the middle of the camp and said, "The leader is receiving guests, so I don't have time to see you for the time being." It's getting dark, so get some rest. ”

With that, the man waved his hand and left, returning to the fence and starting to stand on guard.

Guest?

This word aroused Lu Buping's vigilance.

How long have these homeless people been here, they have been at odds with the shelter, and there are no other gathering places around, who will the so-called guests be.

Lu Buping's shadow appeared in Levy's mind, and then he shook his head.

Lévy was disgusted with fanatical ghouls, most of whom were banished by Diana with Garble's disappearance. The remaining moderates, Levy doesn't hate them. On the contrary, Levy had fought alongside them in the first place, and he was treated the same as ordinary residents, so he had no reason to betray the Vault.

The more Lu Buping thought about it, the more his head hurt, and it seemed that he still had to confirm it with his own eyes.

At this moment, the sky is getting dark, and everyone in the camp is busy, preparing to collect firewood and build a campfire.

Lu Buping took advantage of this point in time to get out of his tent, pretending to be an ordinary member of the homeless people, and moved with the busy crowd.

In fact, he gradually approached the leader's tent in the center, until he was two or three hundred meters away from the big tent, and Lu Buping saw the periphery of the big tent clearly.

There were three or four male guards guarding the door of the tent, and they were much more athletic than the rest of the homeless people, presumably because they rarely starved with the chief. With the uniform equipment provided by the shelter, they are more like combatants than the rest of the homeless.

The other man was dressed in a noticeably different outfit than the others, wearing improvised armor made of nails and iron sheets, and holding a rifle that had been modified by himself instead of the equipment provided by the Vault.

Lu Buping's eyes must be clear, this strangely dressed person must be a so-called third-party force, so the identity of the guests in the big tent is also clear at a glance.

The first thing to do to get close to the camp is to lure the guards away, and now is not the time for a head-on confrontation.

Lu Buping looked around, saw the fire being built not far away, and had an idea.

"I'm sorry." Lu Buping muttered softly to himself.

With a shake of his arm, a Hidden Blade ejected and flew towards the fire, and after stabbing the charcoal, the Hidden Blade did not slow down and flew directly to a small tent.

Suddenly, the tent was set on fire, and everyone in the camp found out that there was a fire and went into chaos. Some people quickly dodged to avoid burning themselves, and some people leaned in to salvage the contents of the tent.

The guards in front of the chief's tent were also attracted by the fire, which was too close to the tent, and several guards hurried away to find water to extinguish the fire.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Buping avoided the guards' sight and quickly rushed to the door of the big tent.
