Without the slightest hesitation, he again activated the Primary Reflective Badge.

Then, in less than 0.1 seconds, he could see the person who was coming.

The male, with a beard and no specific age, was carrying a backpack behind him, wearing a blue-green plaid shirt on his upper body, black sweatpants, sneakers, and his whole body was covered in blood, which he hadn't washed for a long time.

He was holding a dagger in his hand, preoccupied with stabbing it into his chest.

Fortunately, with the effect of the badge, in the remaining 0.9 seconds, Qiming turned sideways to give way to the man's blow, grabbed the man's collar, and put the dagger on the latter's neck.

"No, don't kill me!!"

The man knelt directly on the ground with a "poof", and he was still engrossed in wanting to kill Qiming in the last second, at this time, his face was full of fear, tears and snot flowed together, he raised his hands and looked at Qiming pleadingly.

Qiming snatched the dagger from the man's hand, threw it far away, and then continued to put the dagger on the man's neck, and said in a cold voice:

"Don't move! I'll ask you a question, and if you lie......"

As he spoke, Qiming put the blade of the dagger on the man's neck.

"Don't lie, I definitely don't lie."

The man said in a frightened voice.

"You stole the things in the kitchen?"

The man immediately replied:

"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, you're too much like them, that's why I'll use means against you, I'm sorry, please don't kill me!"

After that, he lowered his body, as if he wanted to kowtow to Qiming, but Qiming firmly grabbed the collar and failed to do it.

"Who do you think I'm like?"

Qiming asked with a frown.

"Marauders, Marauders ......"

"Marauders?"

Qiming wondered,

"What's that?"

"Those guys are crazy people, they are very good at killing zombies, alone or in groups of two or three people, but they not only kill zombies, they also kill people, they snatch everything they can, I have seen your skills, you are so much like them, that's why I ...... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. ”

The man knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.

Lowering his head and looking at the man kneeling in front of him, scared by the dagger around his neck, Qiming asked:

"And who are you?"

"Me? I'm nobody, I'm just a nobody, and this time it's my turn to come out to raise supplies for the camp. ”

"Camp? Do you still have camps? ”

Qiming said in disbelief.

"Yes, yes,"

The man was so frightened that he stammered:

"Our camp is on the outskirts of the city, it was formed by survivors like us, those marauders often come to harass us, and our camp has already killed several people because of them, I thought you were one of them, so I will attack you. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry......"

"And how do you know now that I'm not them?"

Qiming asked again.

The man replied:

"Those madmen are not human beings at all, and no one who falls into their hands will come back alive, and you didn't kill me at once. Believe me, I didn't mean to hurt you! ”

"Hmm."

Qiming nodded and withdrew the dagger from the man's neck.

The man's face was beaming, and he just wanted to say something of thanks.

saw Qiming's wrist flip and stab the dagger in his hand into the man's thigh, and bright red blood flowed out at once.

"Ahh

The man screamed,

"You're lying."

Qiming said coldly.

"No—"

The man wailed bitterly,

"I'm telling the truth!"

Qiming sneered and said:

"It's only been two days since the disaster happened, and it is impossible for those survivor camps you mentioned to be formed so quickly, and what kind of marauders you are talking about, it is impossible for such an organization to be formed in two days!"

Hearing Qiming's words, doubts appeared on the man's face, which was distorted by severe pain,

"Two days? What two days, it's been more than a month since the cataclysm happened!! ”

"What did you say?!"

Qiming's eyes widened, grabbed the man's collar and lifted the man, who had softened into a puddle of mud, from the ground,

"You make it clear! What has been more than a month ago? ”

"Ahh

The man screamed miserably, and Qiming's rough movements touched the knife wound on the man's thigh, leaving him in agony.

"Speak quickly!"

As he spoke, he gently stirred the dagger that had not yet been pulled out of the man's thigh.

The man immediately gasped in pain and said incoherently:

"I, I've already said it, it's been more than a month since the virus broke out!"

Qiming didn't ask any more, let go of the man's collar, stood up from the ground, and looked at the man slumping to the ground again, in pain, Qiming frowned deeply.

It's been more than a month, how is that possible.

Did the other party lie?

Possibly, though, there is now a way to verify it.

Qiming raised his left hand, looked at the electronic watch on his wrist, and pressed the button on the outside of the dial, and the display content on the black ** crystal screen changed from time to date.

"September 3rd."

Qiming muttered.

It has indeed been more than a month since the date he got up "yesterday" morning, 51 days to be exact, almost two months.

How can it be?!

Glancing at the strange man again, he was still there, moaning unconsciously.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he jumped to the trash can in the kitchen, which was almost filled, picked up the trash can and poured out all the garbage inside.

Immediately, he dug out the packaging bag of meat floss bread and milk he had eaten this morning from a pile of garbage, and glanced at the retention period, which was more than a month old.

Milk and bread, especially ham with meat floss, have a very short shelf life, only three or two days, and the longest is not more than a week.

Normal people will never store expired food in their refrigerator for more than a month.

Maybe it was because the refrigerator kept fresh so well, maybe it was because the food had spoiled, but he didn't pay attention at all, the two bags of meat floss bread and milk he ate this morning had indeed expired for more than a month.

"When?"

Qiming frowned and thought, he would definitely not be mistaken, he had looked at his watch when he got up yesterday morning, and it was indeed still in July, and now the time jumped directly to September.
