Chapter 115: The Future of the Weak
"Poof! Poof! Mao Liang made a short and strange sound with his mouth at the corner of the small building, signaling Zhang Zhao and them to come over. The security door is so sturdy that it is never a wise choice to find a way to break in. So a few people were around the small building, carefully looking for doors and windows that could enter.
Around the small building, there is wide glass, most of the windows are locked from the inside, after looking for a long time, Mao Liang finally saw a window, the lock is a little loose. I don't know what this guy did before the end, but he just used a thin piece of paper and tinkered with it for about a minute before he broke the lock inside.
The window is not big, only less than a meter high, Wang Wu is huge, and if he wants to get in, he has to spend a lot of effort. Among the few people, Jianhai's body is relatively small, and he will go in first, and after understanding the situation inside, he will open the door and let the others in.
Zhang Zhao was not at ease, for fear that Jianhai would go in alone, and if something happened, he would not take care of it, which would be too risky. After Jianhai completely climbed in, he also used his strength to eat milk and climbed in half-drilled and half-squeezed.
The building is luxuriously decorated, with soft carpets on the floor and soft feet on it. The surrounding ornaments, decorative paintings, and the huge chandelier look like they're worth a lot of money. Due to work reasons, Zhang Zhao often went to high-end places before the end, but none of the places were comparable to the luxury and sophistication here. If it was before, he would inevitably sigh a few words in his heart. But now the atmosphere here is a little depressing, and the curtains in most places have been tightly drawn, and you can only observe the situation inside by relying on the light that penetrates through the gaps.
Their place of stay, just a corner of the hall, has a leather sofa against the wall for guests to rest. On the right side, that is, on the left side of the entrance entrance, is a pool more than ten meters long, but now there is no flowing water landscape, and the water in the pool has also dried up, discarding some food packaging.
The gate is just a dozen meters away, and there is a marble staircase of three or five steps. The floor was carpeted, and he was not afraid to make a sound when he walked. Jianhai didn't wait for Zhang Zhao, so he walked to the gate by himself, wanting to open the door. But as soon as he walked up the stairs, he was stopped by a shout: "Who are you!" β
Jianhai was stunned for a moment, he had sneaked in, but he didn't expect to be caught on the spot, and he was at a loss for a while. Then two more men came out of it, all fierce and vicious, pointing at Jianhai. After Zhang Zhao was in Jianhai, he was not discovered by them, and the current situation, either he continued to hide and act at the opportunity, but in this case, he directly put Jianhai in a dangerous position. Either he will come out too, so that no matter what the other party wants, at least there will be some fears. Zhang Zhao did not choose these two methods, but quickly ran towards the door, and opened the door before the other party could react.
Watching Wang Wu and the three of them come in through the gate, the expression on the other party's face became ugly after they were stunned. When it comes to force, three against five, there is no chance of victory. What's more, the other party is holding a long knife in his hand, which is not at all the iron rod in his own hand, which can be compared to the fire axe.
"Who are you and why did you break into here?" A man in his forties, stocky, balding, and wearing a shabby shirt scolded. Two men beside him, one wearing a vest and the other shirtless, looked at Zhang Zhao and his party vigilantly.
"What now?" Wang Wu was also stunned, just now the three of them were waiting outside the door, but they didn't expect the door to be opened so quickly, and when they entered the door, they saw three people standing in front of them, with hostile faces.
"How?" Wang Ying also asked in a low voice, this situation was also unexpected.
Zhang Zhao smiled bitterly in his heart, unable to think of a proper reason to explain the intrusion of his group. In desperation, he could only bite the bullet and pretend to say: "Hehe, I didn't expect there to be people here, our Boss Li still wants to take this place." β
The short and fat balding man, seeing that the other party did not come up directly, fought hard, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Since it was a misunderstanding, then you can leave, we have been living here for a few months, and there is nothing here." β
The tone of the short and fat bald man was not as expected, it was not that Zhang Zhao judged people by his appearance, but a man with such an image, generally in the situation where the enemy is strong and I am weak, he will show a cowardly and afraid of death. The other party's toughness and arrogance made Zhang Zhao more curious about the catty in it, and he wanted to raise Li Zijing's name, what to call the boss or something, and the other party would have some associations. I didn't expect the other party to directly issue an eviction order, could it be that there is something greasy about it?
"What do you call it?" Zhang Zhao also changed his face.
"Huh?" The short and fat bald man thought that he had heard it wrong, but he didn't expect the other party to leave, so he asked him politely.
"The contemptible surname is Zhou, Zhou Tu." The short and bald man said that the name was quite in line with his image.
"Boss Zhou, I don't know what industry I was engaged in before the end." Zhang Zhao asked again.
Zhou Tu frowned, his heart was not happy, but he still said: "Before the end of the day, I was doing logistics in Xiangcheng, I don't know what to learn?" β
"I don't dare to be a teacher, but our boss Li is in charge of three or four hundred people, and he often says that if you can eat one bite, if you can take the same, you can't go home empty-handed, otherwise, we people will starve to death." Zhang Zhao deliberately stabbed the scabbard of the Tang knife to the ground.
"Three or four hundred...... You, what do you want? Under Zhang Zhao's key reminder, Zhou Tu showed a trace of panic.
This is the result that Zhang Zhao wants to see, in the apocalyptic world, whoever has a big fist will be justified. Zhou Tu's attitude towards them, the kind of contempt he showed, was not how much strength he had at present, but the habit he had developed before the end. A person who has not fully awakened in the apocalyptic world, a survivor who is likely to have been hiding here, cannot be compared to Zhang Zhao and them at all.
What kind of person to pretend, successful people, hooligans, these Zhang Zhao have experience in previous jobs. The matter of slapping a swollen face and filling a fat man is not less, and it is still possible to bluff people.
"Boss Zhou, time is limited, don't say anything else, let's take a look, if it's useful to get something, share it with us, we won't take it all." Zhang Zhaodao.
Zhou Tu looked at the two men beside him, and pointed at Zhang Zhao angrily: "You are robbing!" β
"That's right, it's robbery, if you obey, we'll take a look, and we won't harass you. If you don't accept it, hum ......" Wang Ying also said helpfully.
"Absolutely not!" Zhou Tu almost jumped.
"Don't be wordy, you three look at them." No matter how Zhou Tu resisted, Zhang Zhao and Wang Ying had already jumped over them and walked inside. Wang Wu, Jianhai, and Mao Liang blocked the three Zhou Tu who tried to stop them. Wang Wu's machete, which was stained with the black blood of zombies, went sideways, and the three people who were originally glaring angrily immediately shrugged up.
The passage to the front of the entrance is to the elevator, which can only be taken up the stairs since there is no power supply. The road was quite smooth, and the two walked very carefully, but no one came out to stop them, which shows that only these three people are controlling in this small building. On the first and second floors, there are private rooms, and there are no lights, so you can't see the inside clearly. The two didn't stay and went directly to the third floor.
Zhang Zhao compared the windows that reflected the mirror light before, calculated a few rooms, and tried to open them, but there was no one. After opening the third room, he was greeted by a sight in front of him. This was supposed to be an office, as can be seen from the dΓ©cor and layout. The room is not large, only about thirty square meters, with many couches on rest, and bed sheets and quilts scattered on the floor.
The sudden intrusion startled the people inside, and in the corner of the room, a white quilt shivered. There were half-lit candles on the tables around the room, about seven or eight of them. The smell of cured meat is a little uncomfortable, if it weren't for Zhang Zhao's nose, he wouldn't have smelled that smell.
"Was that the mirror you looked at?" Zhang Zhao asked directly at the quilt.
The sobbing of the person wrapped in the quilt slowly quieted down, and after a while he carefully showed his head. It was a woman about forty years old, not very pretty, very ordinary, with messy hair stuck together. What Zhang Zhao didn't expect was that in the quilt, another head stretched out, it was a teenage girl with a melon seed face, very thin.
The woman nodded, she was always scared, her body was shaking, like a kitten in the rain. Seeing this, Zhang Zhao also softened his heart a little, along the way, all kinds of people have seen that in death and fear, people will do things that they can't understand.
"Do you want to get out of here?" Wang Ying knew what Zhang Zhao meant, so he asked the two women. Women, no matter in any dynasty or environment, are a vulnerable group. The three men downstairs are obviously not relatives of these two people, so it is not difficult to imagine what happened to them.
The woman nodded wildly without hesitation, and was a little excited to cry again. Zhang Zhao frowned and said, "We can only take you away, and you have to rely on yourself to survive." Don't cry, as soon as you cry, things won't be easy, you will be zombies when you go out of the building, you will not only kill yourself, but also drag us down. β
The woman was stunned for a moment, and whispered back that she knew. Zhang Zhao and Wang Ying exited the door very well and waited for them to put on their clothes.
The two sat on the rest chair outside the door, lit a cigarette, the ash fell on the carpet, and they didn't care, this kind of place full of sin, it is better to burn it clean. "If we are like this, will we be too kind, and the consequences of being the Virgin Mary will be very serious." After thinking about it, Zhang Zhao still raised this issue to Wang Ying.
Wang Ying took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, "I know the direction you are considering, but if we want to survive with strength, the only thing we need is people, we need people to find materials, people to guard the camp, laundry and cooking, and farming." As you said, Tokai Camp is not necessarily a good place, although there is security, it is always someone's place, we will have a lot of control, and any decision is someone's decision. Wang Ying propped his head and continued, "I've been thinking about it recently, if we can find a suitable place, we don't have to go to the East China Sea camp, and we can survive ourselves." β
Zhang Zhao threw the cigarette butt on the ground with a heavy heart, and stepped on his feet habitually. He originally thought that Wang Ying's idea was not like this, but when he asked this today, he found that there was still a big gap between the Wang Ying he imagined and the reality. Everything Wang Ying has done along the way has his own plans. Including today's unnecessary rescue, he is just trying to win people's hearts, he wants to develop on his own, and wants to establish an ideal country in the apocalyptic world.
This ambition is so big that Zhang Zhao didn't even think that far. All he wanted was to find his parents, and maybe everyone would flee to a more desolate place, or a no-man's land in the southwest, away from the zombie world. You don't need so many people, as long as the people close to you are close to you, even if you just live the rest of your life, it's enough. Wang Ying thinks differently, although the direction is similar, but what he thinks about may be the future of mankind.
A big dream, if you want to succeed, you have to give up a lot, this kind of glory built on pain, is not something that ordinary people can bear. Wang Ying's inner thoughts made Zhang Zhao scared when he heard it, he probably thought that Zhang Zhao thought the same way.
A homeland and a world are two different things, although the ultimate foundation is people. Zhang Zhao didn't know what to say, because it was not right to say anything now.
The door creaked open, and the woman was wearing a pair of black suit pants, and the upper body was wrapped in a sheet or a simple pair of things. Another young girl wore a very ill-fitting men's outfit.
"Our clothes are gone, so we can only ...... like this" The woman didn't dare to look directly at Zhang Zhao and them, and said in a low voice.
Wang Ying stood up, took off his coat and put it on her, and said, "It's okay, I can find you a few decent clothes after leaving here, let's get out of here quickly." β
Zhang Zhao stopped his body, and as soon as he wanted to get up, Wang Ying had already done everything. Looking at his back, Zhang Zhao's mood became complicated.
