Chapter 060: Capture the Clubhouse
γBroadcastγPay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
Manhattan is a business district where relatively few people live and more people work. But today, with a large number of people stranded here, they have no idea how to face the predicament in front of them.
The bustling streets are full of panicked men and women who don't know how to be good. Most of these people are the elite of American society, but this association is fragile and helpless.
Many churches in Manhattan have opened their doors to provide essential food and lodging for those who are unable to leave. The number of people who can stay here is in the millions, and no charity can meet the needs of these people. Panic is brewing rapidly, and the ugliness of human nature is about to be revealed on a large scale.
From Columbia University's medical center back to the Sacred Heart Church's clubhouse, a short journey of less than ten kilometers, Zhou Qingfeng and Lina. Fox's convoy ran for a total of two hours. The chaos along the way makes the passengers in the car feel that they are in the end of the world.
Back outside the club building, the mess caused by the confrontation between Zhou Qingfeng and the police during the day has not been cleared, and even several police cars are still there. It's just that the gate that was originally knocked open by the police armored car has been blocked by a barricade made of a pile of furniture, and there are several nervous clubhouse attendants behind the barricade.
"I'm Lena. Fox, I want to see Mr. Patrick. Miss Fox shouted into the clubhouse with a police bullhorn.
Soon the silver-haired old man appeared behind the barricades, and Patrick was the administrator of the Sacred Heart Church at the clubhouse. But the usually kind old man did not receive the guests warmly this time, and he stood behind the barricade and shouted: "I'm sorry, Miss Fawkes, but in view of the special circumstances of the present time, the clubhouse is temporarily closed, and we are unable to serve you now. β
Just as the old man was talking, a dark shadow crept along the wall of the clubhouse building, and suddenly jumped over the barricade and ran into the clubhouse. The calm was shattered.
"Hell, there's a dog!"
"Don't shoot, it's knocked out Mr. Patrick."
"Damn the dingo, it almost bit me."
Bang......, in the midst of a noisy sound, suddenly a gunshot rang out!
The waiters who were wandering around immediately fell silent, and only then did the people in the clubhouse see that the fierce god who had fought with the police during the day had crossed the barricade and appeared in front of them with a grim face.
"Listen, I'm not passing through here, I'm not here to talk to you about pleading, I'm here to save you. I know better than you how to survive the chaos, so it's good for you to follow my commands. β
Zhou Qingfeng slowly walked past the attendants, staring into the eyes of each of them with a cold gaze, until these people couldn't stand his cold and ruthless gaze and had to lower their heads.
The tough Zhou Qingfeng finally walked in front of Patrick, the silver-haired old man had just been thrown to the ground by 'dog meat', and only then did he struggle to get up, his face was full of anger and arrogance that he was unwilling to give into, "This is a secret club, protected by American law, and no one is allowed to enter without invitation." β
Zhou Qingfeng just smiled disdainfully at this, and Lina, who played a flexible role. Fawkes stepped forward at the right time and said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Patrick, I can understand your mood at the moment, but you are not professional enough.
I think you should already know that the officials, the police, the military, the corporations have disappeared, and the streets are becoming more and more chaotic. Do you need a strong man to tell you how to survive next? β
The silver-haired old man was still resentful, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhou Qingfeng's strong invasion. He glared at Zhou Qingfeng angrily a few times, and then looked at Lina. Fox softened and said, "I'm not a cold-hearted person, but I have to protect the interests of the clubhouse." Now the situation is ....... β
The current situation is terrible, not everyone has experienced several trials of life and death like Zhou Qingfeng. Not everyone is as mentally prepared for the coming of the cataclysm as Zhou Qingfeng. In the face of a desperate situation, the people of the club also need a backbone.
"Okay, I'll agree to let the two of you into the clubhouse." The panicked atmosphere in the clubhouse forced Old Man Patrick to compromise, but he still wanted to stick to certain limits, "But you must abide by the rules of the clubhouse." β
Zhou Qingfeng shook his head and said, "Put away your rules, they are used in peacetime." But now, ......, war is coming. You have to play by my rules. β
"No, it won't work! The Sacred Heart Church is a meeting place for the upper class of the American class, we have been established for more than 100 years, and I have worked here for more than 40 years. I can't give this to you. β
Old man Patrick shook his head this time, he knew that Zhou Qingfeng was going to seize his absolute control of the club, so he was unwilling to agree. This made Zhou Qingfeng a little impatient and pressed his hand on the holster.
"Don't! Victor, don't do that. "Lena. Fox stretched out her hand to stop Zhou Qingfeng, and she said to the old man again, "Mr. Patrick." We've known each other for a long time. When I was a little girl, I was served by you. I know you have a lot of management experience, but now I want you to see the reality.
We're not taking your power away, we just want more people to live. You can indeed ensure safety for a while, but what will happen in a few days? Have you ever wondered how long your men can hold out if the police never come back? β
How long? Look at the crowds of people in distress on the streets, and you know that trouble can overwhelm the clubhouse's defenses at any moment.
Lena. Fox's words made Patrick stunned for a long time, and the seventy-year-old man sighed several times, and finally cried and said, "This must be God's punishment, this is our original sin!" β
Seeing that Patrick's attitude has completely softened, Zhou Qingfeng is no longer persecuting, he still needs this old man to calm people's hearts. So he asked, "Tell me, who else are in the clubhouse?" β
The old man collapsed on a sofa in the hall of the clubhouse with a weak body, and said while shedding tears: "Our clubhouse building has more than 100 rooms, four restaurants, two bars, and hundreds of services, and we strive to make every guest who enters the clubhouse enjoy the best experience. Therefore, we have more than 300 high-quality employees.
This afternoon, there are still many police officers in the clubhouse who are investigating and collecting evidence. But their sudden disappearance frightened everyone in the clubhouse.
We quickly got word from various media outlets that the police had disappeared all over the United States and even in the world. And those officials, soldiers and plutocrats.
Yes, and the plutocrats. Originally, there were more than 30 distinguished guests in the clubhouse, but all of them disappeared. Faced with such an unimaginable situation, we don't know who to turn to?
The club's more than 300 service staff also had to start worrying about their families. In just a few hours, there were less than thirty people left under my command. β
"Let them all come out, I need to register their identities." Zhou Qingfeng needed to know how many manpower he had at his disposal.
Twenty-eight remaining staff members of the club appeared in front of Zhou Qingfeng. They were all single young people with no worries, and there were eighteen women and ten men. Among these people were five cooks, a security guard, three handymen, and nineteen room and bar service staff.
By the way, the women who can work in this top club are quite beautiful, young and beautiful, and they can be regarded as having their own style! But when the cataclysm comes, a woman who is too beautiful will only get into trouble!
