Chapter 426: Business (3)
"Bastard! My ex-boyfriend is a flowery bastard! And you are a ruthless bastard! I was a big bastard who caught me here! You are all bastards!!" The woman did not look at Zhang Ruoge but looked at the ground, muttering incessantly.
"It's the last thing I can handle. Zhang Ruoge sighed and slowly walked to the woman's side, "Don't cry, I promise you, next time if I can find rich food, I will come to see you again." β
Who knew that the woman suddenly exerted her strength at this time, so that Zhang Ruoge, who had just squatted, was caught off guard. The woman who was still kneeling on the ground and crying in the last second has now fallen into her arms, Zhang Ruoge's left hand moved, and she was about to hit the woman's head subconsciously, but at this time, the woman did not make further movements, but just bit Zhang Ruoge's shoulder fiercely, her voice whimpered, and Zhang Ruoge had to put down her hand.
After less than a minute or two, the woman fell asleep in Zhang Ruoge's arms, long-term mental depression and lack of sleep made her fall into a coma directly after releasing her emotions, and Zhang Ruoge also gently picked up the woman and put her on the bed after confirming that the woman was asleep, covered the quilt and walked out.
"Forgive me for not being able to deepen the relationship between us with you, because I can't save you, and getting better with you will only make you and me more miserable," Zhang Ruoge finally glanced at the woman and said softly, "Hope is the seed of despair, if you don't sow seeds, the yield of despair will always be smaller." β
βHope to see you againγ Walking out of the room, Zhang Ruoge, who was no longer so vigilant, really heard the voice of Yingying Yanyan, and just when he wanted to speed up his pace, he happened to see the man who should be the leader open the door to another Caucasia, and at this time he saw himself coming out, and the white man was greeting him.
βokγ Zhang Ruoge saw that the man had no intention of stopping him at all, and he was also relieved, these people really did this, not using this as an excuse to trick people into coming in to grab goods and kill people.
"Hurry up and collect food, it's been a long time since this trip. Zhang Ruoge looked at the dark sky, although he didn't know the specific time now, but this trip must have taken much longer than planned, and he had to spend a lot of time looking for a place to collect food or water again, and the harvest today might be very bad back and forth.
"What should I do?" More than five hours have passed, and Zhang Ruoge still hasn't come back, which makes Jiang Yang and Zhao Luyu, who were keeping vigil, panic, Zhang Ruoge has never been out for so long, and now the two are very worried about what danger Zhang Ruoge may have encountered.
"We have pistols, I think Ruoge must have gone to the rich area, let's bring a pistol and look for it. Jiang Yang picked up the pistol and said with a serious face.
"But... Zhao Luyu wanted to say something, but he couldn't find a rebuttal, and just as he was about to agree, the door to the basement was opened.
"I'm back. Zhang Ruoge happened to return to the basement at this time, looking at Jiang Yang's eager look, and roughly guessed what he was going to do, "Didn't I warn you not to go out easily? And going out with a gun is a risky option, you may make people who are not too hostile to you fight with you because of the pressure you create." β
βγγγγ Jiang Yang, who was worried about Zhang Ruoge, was shot by Zhang Ruoge when he came up, and he was suddenly speechless, so he could only look at Zhang Ruoge with resentment.
"Ruoge. Zhao Luyu also walked to Zhang Ruoge's side gently, tugged at Zhang Ruoge's clothes, and signaled him not to be too strict with Jiang Yang.
"Let's not talk about that. Zhang Ruoge also changed the topic at the right time and took out something from his backpack, "Hand crank rechargeable simple lamp, we can reduce the use of candles, after all, the light of candles is too dim." β
"Damn!" Jiang Yang took the simple lamp, and after checking it, he began to move around the handle, and the faint light also radiated, "Good thing." β
"Although I don't know if it will break faster if it is left open 24 hours a day, but use it first, there is no need to save. Zhang Ruoge also nodded, he is not a survival enthusiast or a camping enthusiast, he only knows the approximate purpose of this kind of thing, and he can't even say the professional name of this thing.
"There should still be enough time for me to go out again, and I won't ink anymore. Zhang Ruoge was not ambiguous, directly picked up another empty backpack and stood up, "Don't rush out to find me because you're worried, I'll go to other streets I haven't walked this time to take a look." β
"Where is the rich area?" Jiang Yang asked curiously.
"It's controlled, and although they're mainly in business, and spend most of their time watching the scene, and there's no hostility towards me, it's still risky to grab food from them, and besides, there's not a lot of water over there. After Zhang Ruoge briefly explained the situation, he got up and walked out.
"Do business?" Jiang Yang looked at Zhao Luyu curiously and asked, "What kind of business is there in this situation now? And it sounds like there are quite a few people? Selling tobacco and alcohol? Can't sell guns and ammunition, right?"
"Don't ask me. After Xiao Jiang asked, Zhao Luyu already had a little guess in her heart, but she definitely wouldn't say it, but instead looked at the passage where Zhang Ruoge left, and felt a little bad in her heart, if her guess was correct, then did Zhang Ruoge, who understood the situation, have already been there?
"I seem to be talking too much. Zhang Ruoge secretly regretted that he had said too much information after going out, Zhao Luiyu guessed that it was not a big deal, after all, Zhao Luyuyu didn't like him, even if he really went to that kind of place, at most he would complain about wasting food? Maybe even the smart Zhao Luyuyu wouldn't say this kind of thing. The person he was most worried about was Jiang Yang, who had held him back for so long, if he knew where to vent himself, he would probably be impatient.
"It's said there's a big mall nearby?" Zhang Ruogezai carefully recalled the information he had checked on the Internet before, because he was not interested in shopping, so he had a vague impression of this aspect, and now he regretted it very much, because he couldn't find the location of the big supermarket in this dark night, although the road recognition skill point was quite high, but he only had an impression of the road he had walked, and he could remember the appearance of the whole city just by looking at it, which was the performance of a person with a very high IQ in a science fiction detective movie, and he would never be able to do it.
"However, there are a lot of people around here. Zhang Ruoge hid in the corner and watched another wave of people walk over, he was walking towards the center of the town, he naturally knew, but he didn't expect that there were obviously more people in this neighborhood than in the southeast corner where he was, this time he had already met three waves of people, but they were all hidden by Zhang Ruoge, so there was no substantive communication with them.
"Mall... Is this it?" Zhang Ruoge went around and around, and finally saw an obvious shopping street type building, looked up, and was very speechless, at this time this mall-like building only has a dilapidated appearance, it is difficult to imagine how many shells this building was hit, if it is not for the vague impression of this geographical location, Zhang Ruoge is unable to distinguish this is actually a mall.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's the city's largest shopping mall for light industry and food sales. Zhang Ruoge looked at the desolate building in front of him, and rubbed his somewhat frozen face with his hand so that he could make an expression, "It is said that 1/3 of the food raw materials in the entire city are sold in this place, and the second floor is a very famous specialty restaurant street. With this kind of bombardment, I am afraid that even a tenth of the food will not be saved, and with the bombing of other places and the waste of scramble, five days have passed now, and the food in this city may have been consumed seven or eight times out of ten. β
Zhang Ruoge, who probably came to this conclusion, is also in a heavy mood, if his guess is really correct, then from tomorrow or maybe from today, refugees with no food left may have to do whatever it takes to survive.
"I'm back. Zhang Ruoge opened the door again, the night watchmen had been replaced by Liu Ran and Zhao Luyu, and Jiang Yang had already gone to sleep.
"Welcome back. Liu Ran went out to greet him, and took the backpack in Zhang Ruo's singer, "It's so heavy, have you found water again?"
"Well, I happened to grab some. Zhang Ruoge said casually.
"Rob?" Hearing this unfamiliar word, Zhao Luyu and Liu Ran's eyes were focused on Zhang Ruoge's body, because the hand-cranked lamp that Zhang Ruoge accidentally found, now the basement is not so dim, so it is not as clear as before.
"Ruoge, your hand!" Zhao Luyu was the first to find out, screaming and pulling Zhang Ruoge to sit on the chair, at this time Zhang Ruoge's left hand had a wound, and it was still bleeding slightly, and the entire left sleeve had been dyed red.
"Blame me for being greedy. Zhang Ruoge's expression was still trying to remain calm, although he felt that he had become a little weak due to bleeding, but he had already confirmed that although the wound was large, it did not have any impact on the movement of the arm and wrist, which can be said to be quite lucky, "If I didn't want to bring back a whole box of mineral water, I wouldn't have been intercepted." β
"Don't move. Looking at Zhang Ruoge, who wanted to scratch his head, Zhao Longyu gave him a fierce look, and Liu Ran quickly put down his backpack, found the unopened spirits and the medical gauze brought back by Zhang Ruoge from the storage room, and returned to the two of them.
"Brother Ran help me get some scissors. Zhao Luyu lowered his head and said to Liu Ran.
