Chapter 123: It's Not a Punishment, It's a Gift

The Vault Tactical Meeting Room.

"Are there any others who have volunteered for the rescue operation?" Lu Yunrui glanced at the time, and there were only 5 minutes left before the scheduled departure time.

For every minute they delayed, the four girls who were kidnapped were in greater danger.

The sooner the rescue operation, the better.

Zeng Minzhu shook her head helplessly, sweating profusely, and explained: "I have asked about every dormitory in the girls' area, and I asked someone from the security team in the boys' area to ask, but there is no result." ”

Lu Yunrui glanced at the number of people present, there were only thirteen people in total, and there was not a single male.

And most of her acquaintances, Zhiyan, Xiaolan, Minzhu, etc., all volunteered to participate in the rescue operation out of trust and affection for her.

Just now she explained to the council and asked for a rescue operation.

Most of the members of the council agreed to the rescue, but they believed that the shelter rescue team was not equipped enough and that it should be mainly rescue professionals.

Councillor Lu proposed to set up a separate rescue team without bothering the rescue team.

The council objected, arguing that the situation at the shelter was unstable.

Everyone took turns to go out to collect supplies, and they were already under enough pressure to rush and force additional rescue missions to be arranged, which I am afraid would cause an emotional backlash.

Councillor Lu had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and proposed the formation of a volunteer rescue team, all of which should be done on a voluntary basis.

The council finally agreed to the plan and approved MP Lu to form a volunteer rescue team on his own.

But after the notice of the boys' area and the girls' area, there were very few people who volunteered.

In fact, she can also understand everyone's choice.

After all, those four girls are not related to everyone, and it is normal for them to go out to collect supplies and encounter danger in the last days.

Being kidnapped by survivors in the wilderness sounds at least a little better than being bitten to death by a zombie.

The vast majority of people are not willing to risk their lives and joke with their lives.

Zhiyan held a bow and arrow, and said with a serious face: "Councilor Lu, you don't need to rely on them, with me, I promise to give those gangsters a thorough blow and rescue those four sisters smoothly." ”

"Well, Zhiyan, I'm really bothering you this time." Lu Yunrui was a little apologetic, each of these girls in front of her was her good sister and friend.

Seeing this, the blonde commander stepped forward and persuaded loudly.

"Councillor Lu, based on my personal analysis and judgment, I propose to cancel this rescue plan."

"Your team is too small, and it's all girls."

"The enemy's specific situation is unknown, the situation is dangerous, and the probability of a successful operation is only one in ten percent if you go out rashly like this."

“.” Parliamentarian Lu was silent after hearing this.

This operation is different from the previous simple collection of supplies, and will face the danger of a head-to-head confrontation with survivors in the wild.

According to Lee's account, the group of wild survivors was strong, and most of the members were men.

A group of girls went out to rescue, and if they were not careful, they might come to the door to deliver food.

Therefore, she is still struggling with whether to organize this voluntary rescue.

Organizing the rescue is her responsibility and responsibility as a councillor, and it is the last hope for the four desperate girls.

But she didn't even dare to think about the consequences of the failed rescue.

For the sake of four girls whose whereabouts are unknown, if she catches a dozen more, she will not be able to apologize for her death.

At this moment, she only thought of one person.

Sergeant Zheng.

If he had been there, maybe it would have been a different story.

Since he was able to save himself that day, maybe there was a way to save the four girls.

But it's also unfair to him.

Sheriff Zheng never owes anyone here, and has no responsibility or obligation to rescue, on the contrary, everyone here owes him.

Lu Yunrui suddenly understood.

Why would Sheriff Cheng say he was a doomsday trader, because he never wanted to owe anyone and didn't want anyone to owe him.

As long as you can pay the equivalent terms, you can complete the transaction with him.

In contrast, she is the one who is selfish.

For the sake of the overall situation of the refuge, you want others to give unconditionally, what is the difference between this and moral kidnapping.

From the beginning, it wasn't Sheriff Zheng who relied on the Vault, it was the Vault that needed to rely on him.

"Commander, don't underestimate us so much." Zhiyan pouted dissatisfiedly, "We all have many experiences of going out, and we are definitely no worse than those wild villains. ”

"I'm quite relieved of you, but not everyone has that ability." The blonde commander crossed his hands on his hips and said helplessly: "It's okay for you to go out to collect supplies, but snatching people from those villains, the combat strength is obviously too weak." ”

Just as several people were at a stalemate, there was a sound of high-heeled shoes outside the door.

"Count me in."

Councillor Lu looked for prestige and found that it was Qian Suli who pushed the door in.

She knew that Qian Suli had always been Speaker Lin's secretary, and at the same time, she also had another layer of bodyguard status, and her skills were extraordinary.

With her joining the team, the combat strength can obviously be made up a lot.

"Thank you." MP Lo thanked him softly.

Qian Suli still had that arrogant look in her eyes, her eyes were slightly narrow, and she said, "No, this is what Speaker Lin meant." ”

In fact, she only said half of it, it should be that she took the initiative to apply, and finally Speaker Lin agreed to her to participate in the rescue and issued a request.

Kill the group of survivors.

Not a single one is left.

"You've been attacked here?" Zheng Xun stopped the motorcycle and asked the squad leader sitting behind him.

This is a crossroads of old alleys, and there are rows of small shops along the street, most of which are completely destroyed.

The three- and four-storey old houses and several dilapidated small hotels belong to the typical urban village landform.

There may not be many people living here, and the signs of zombie activity are not obvious.

The squad leader tightly wrapped his arms around his waist and nodded and said.

"Well, we were around here gathering supplies."

"More than a dozen survivors suddenly appeared, rushed out and directly hacked two male team members to death, and kidnapped four other female team members."

"When I saw that the situation was not good, I ran away and shouted and made a noise."

"They chased me for a while, and they chose to retreat for fear of attracting zombies."

"The group moved quickly and retreated decisively, as if they had been waiting in ambush for a long time."

"What weapons did they use?" Zheng Xun asked.

"It's basically crowbars, machetes, and the like." Lee Eun-hye replied.

Zheng Xun roughly made a judgment in his heart.

The group of survivors had a clear goal, women.

They were crouching near a safe spot, most likely secretly watching.

Guess in the worse direction, there will be a man who will leave the shelter in that group of villains.

Only survivors who have been in the shelter will know about these safe routes and locations, and that there will be girls in the collection team.

"In which direction did they flee?"

Lee Eun-hye pointed to the alley on the left: "Ran over there." ”

Zheng Xun glanced sideways, the direction of escape did not coincide with the safe route, and there was a high probability that there was another destination.

Although there are not many zombies on the street during the day, it is impossible to completely ignore their presence.

Now that it's getting dark, the group shouldn't be able to run far.

In order to avoid the zombies, they should choose to hike with less movement.

All that needs to be done now is to find out where they are hiding, and then ask the corpse brothers to open the can.

"Get out of the car." Zheng Xun Zheng Xun parked the motorcycle and got out of the car, took out the longbow from his bag, put the quiver on his back, and set off.

The two of them walked along the side of the building, observing their surroundings as they went.

From time to time, in the alleys, some corpses can be seen, either lying on the side of the road or lying on the hood.

Some of the corpses were mutated zombies with their heads smashed with blunt objects.

The two of them walked deeper and deeper until the front of the alley gradually widened, along with a wide road.

There are many zombies wandering on the main road, haunting in the evening.

"They probably haven't left the alley yet, probably stationed at a nearby safety spot." Zheng Xun stopped and looked around.

Lee Eun-hye also noticed that the zombies on the street were in a dazed and sluggish state, indicating that they had not encountered any living people passing by, and they might be waiting for the opportunity to escape tomorrow.

The floors in the alley are not high, and they are basically gathered in this area, and as long as you find a high point, you can observe the general situation.

They were carrying four living women, and it was impossible for them not to move at all.

The purpose of kidnapping a woman is too clear, except to satisfy that little beast thought, there is absolutely no second possibility.

Zheng Xun found the tallest building next to it, which was five stories high, went directly to the rooftop, took out his monoculars and began to observe the windows of the nearby buildings one by one.

Most of the old windows were empty, some of them had broken glass, and some of them had zombies standing in them.

After searching for a while, he suddenly found that in the building diagonally opposite, in the third-floor window, there were figures moving.

Although the curtains were drawn, there was a bright light inside, and several black figures appeared on the curtain cloth.

"Come here, take a look." He called Lee Eun-hye and handed her the monoculars.

Lee Eun-hye took the monoculars and didn't expect to find the target so quickly.

Through the binoculars, I could see the movement in the window.

I saw several figures staggering back and forth, pressing on another curved figure, constantly making rough movements.

Or raise your hand and slap hard, or clench your fist and smash your face, while venting the desires of beasts, while using violence to force the other party to submit.

Suddenly, one of the curves ran to the window and tore open the curtains.

A familiar and unfamiliar woman's face appeared in front of the window.

Familiar because the woman, who was her companion, had set out from the shelter to gather supplies.

It is strange because of the face, the nose is blue and the face is swollen, and the fear is distorted to the point that it is impossible to see the human form.

Being trapped in a cramped room by a dozen jackals, even just imagining it, makes her shudder.

The woman banged on the window in despair, trying to break it to get attention, even from the zombies.

But a thick palm grabbed her scalp, pulled it back fiercely, and closed the curtain again.

Lee Eun-hye was completely shocked, covering her mouth and unable to say a word.

This is the first time she has seen the true cruelty of the apocalypse, the darkness that is more terrible than zombies.

Even those who had experienced in the school before, the school executives only cared about their own lives and abandoned the students, they were far less than what these beasts did.

If it falls into the hands of these beasts, it is the real can't survive and die.

"Squad leader, now you should understand, the end of running around." Zheng Xun slowly leaned closer to her ear and said.

"This apocalyptic city is far more dangerous than just zombies."

"Come to think of it, you can stand here now instead of being locked up in that room."

"Is it really because you're luckier than those girls?"

Lee Eun-hye was silent.

Seeing the figures of more than a dozen beasts in that room, I was so stunned that I couldn't say a word.

She was never the lucky one, it was Zheng Xun who made her that lucky one.

If it weren't for Zheng Xun's efforts, she might have died on the way to the shelter.

It's horrible.

If Zheng Xun hadn't come to the shelter to look for her, he hadn't given her three days of immunization in the warehouse.

What happened to her now will only be the same as those four girls, like falling into hell, and she will never recover.

To a certain extent, the punishment brought by Zheng Xun is actually a gift.

Zheng Xun slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and continued to ask, "Now you know what you did wrong, right?" ”

He took Li Enhui out on this trip, in addition to killing those damn villains, and more importantly, giving the squad leader a good lesson.

This woman has always admitted beating and not punishing, and is used to thinking about the situation rationally and weighing the pros and cons.

The so-called compromise is only to complete his own little ninety-nine, not real surrender.

As his girlfriend, he must not be half-hearted.

Tears slipped from the corners of Lee Eun-hye's eyes and she nodded stunned.

She realized that she had been making a big mistake.

That mistake is to think that you can rely on yourself to fight for the opportunity, but ignore that this opportunity was given by Zheng Xun.

Now it seems that her cleverness is completely wrong.

"Alright, give those girls a relief." Zheng Xun let go of the squad leader, took out a pistol from his arms, turned around and went downstairs, "Go back and be punished well." ”

A modified minibus slowly stopped at the intersection of alleys.

Zhiyan, who was wearing a high ponytail, stepped out of the car with a longbow in hand, and after confirming that there were no zombies around, he motioned for a few people behind him to follow.

"This is where Lee Eun-hye and the others were attacked."

Lu Yunrui got out of the car, looked around, and confirmed that this was the place where Lee Eun-hye's team and her team were collecting supplies.

There was no one around, and there was no clue at all, and I didn't know where Sheriff Zheng had gone with Lee Eun-hye.

"Why don't we divide into three teams and look around the three alleys?" Zhiyan suggested.

"No, you can't disperse and walk away, and once you are in distress, you can't respond to the rescue in time." Lu Yunrui denied what she said.

But there are three alleys in front of me, and one by one I will definitely not be able to find them before dark.

Just when they were at a loss, they suddenly saw several figures slowly walking in the alley on the left.

"You see, it seems to be a favor?!" Zeng Minzhu pointed to the figure and said.

Lee Eun-hye walked heavily and slowly, and two girls beside him were holding each other, gritting their teeth and walking towards the minibus.

Although the girls were seriously injured,

"It's really a favor, they're back!"

Lu Yunrui and his entourage were shocked.

At the most critical moment, Lee Eun-hye brought the girls back.

Everyone hurriedly greeted them, supported them, and carefully escorted them to the minibus.

"Favor? How are you! Lu Yunrui helped Li Enhui brush her hair.

"I'm fine." Lee Eun-hye endured the sourness and exhaustion and said, "Look at how they are? ”

Lan Lin carefully examined the injuries of the girls, and the scars all over her body could only be described as miserable, and blood was oozing everywhere, which was distressing.

But the girls gritted their teeth, never said a word of pain, and relied on the faith to survive, all the way here.

"It was Sheriff Zheng who saved us." One of the girls, trembling, said.

Hearing this answer, the women were immediately shocked.

None of them expected that the person who saved the girls back would be Sheriff Zheng!

For a moment, all sides looked at each other.

Lu Yunrui was even more shocked and couldn't say a word.

Sure enough, as Sheriff Zheng said, when the council agreed, the daylilies were cold.

She finally pulled up a rescue team before setting off to reach her destination, only to find that Sheriff Zheng had finished the operation.

If he hadn't taken action, according to their rhythm of saving people, it is estimated that the girls who were kidnapped would have been murdered a long time ago.

She realizes that the council is not omnipotent, at least not enough for the bold Sheriff Zheng.

Seeing the girls return safely, Lu Yunrui's heart was hot.

Unconsciously, I have a new understanding of Sheriff Zheng, maybe he is a bit perverted, but in essence he is still an upright sheriff.

"Are all the damned villains dead?" Qian Suli asked in a cold voice.

When she saw the girl being tortured, her eyes were so swollen that she couldn't open them, she knew what was happening at the scene.

The feelings of being a fellow girl made her angry.

Now that the girls are back safely, all that's left is to kill the beasts.

"They're all dead." One of the girls said, her tone was very relieved, "Sheriff Zheng didn't let any of them go. ”

"Heh, he's a man." Qian Suli sneered.

She was surprised to see that the girl could come back alive.

After all, this area is not small, and it is not easy to find that group of villains.

Now that the villains have been solved, she is really impressed.

Compared to the other shrunken guys in the shelter, Sheriff Zheng is indeed more like a man.

"That pervert. No, then Sheriff Zheng saved you, what about the others?! Zhiyan suddenly pursed his mouth, quickly corrected his tone, and asked Li Enhui.

She was worried that Sheriff Zheng would not be able to handle it alone, so she thought of hurrying over to help her.

can hear that the villains have been all solved, and the hanging in my heart is half steady.

After all, in her opinion, Sheriff Zheng's archery skills are really not very good, and she has been worried about damaging his enthusiasm for archery practice, so she deliberately praised two sentences.

"He's dealing with the latter things, and he'll come back when he's done." Lee Eun-hye explained.

"I'll stay here and wait for him."

Suddenly, all the women said this in unison.

With that, they looked at each other in surprise, then looked away.

The atmosphere in the carriage was suddenly a little strange.

Lee Eun-hye took the initiative to break the silence.

"I'll stay."

"Originally, I also made an appointment with Sheriff Zheng to wait for him here."

"You're here just in time, you can send them to the shelter first."

Hearing this, Lu Yunrui also knew that she couldn't stay here for long, so she earnestly instructed: "Enhui, then you pay attention to safety, be more careful, and come back early after meeting with Sheriff Zheng." ”

Lee Eun-hye nodded, then stepped off the minibus, and then watched the vehicle slowly drive away.

She walked to the motorcycle and waited quietly for Zheng Xun to return.

Not long after, a tall figure approached.

Li Enhui hurriedly greeted him and asked with concern, "How is it?" ”

"It's all settled." Zheng Xun hugged the squad leader's slender waist, "Just these few little bandits, naturally there is no difficulty." ”

A group of survivors with sticks, no different from walking cans in his eyes.

"I'm asking if you're hurt." Lee Eun-hye's tone was glutinous.

"You should worry about yourself." Zheng Xun led her to a nearby shop.

Lee Eun Hye looked up at the store, the orange adult product store, instantly understood something, and secretly lowered his head and followed in.

The inside of the shop is very clean, except for the curtain that blocked the door was torn off, and the facilities were basically intact.

In the glass case, there are all kinds of silicone, electric, hip-shaped footglasses, as well as several full-scale simulation dolls, wearing hot lace to make a provocative pose.

When the zombie crisis breaks out, there is basically no one who runs into this kind of store.

It's all about solving physiological needs, there is no way to eat and drink, and there is a lack of necessary survival resources.

Therefore, compared with strategic resource points such as supermarkets and convenience stores, adult product stores are often spared.

He passed by the silicone supplies sales area, the simulated body area, the otaku footcup area, and came to the fun torture equipment area.

There are ping-pong balls in the mouth, small leather whips that beat the headlights, red candles dripping on the body, and multiple sets of black leather belts worn on the body.

Zheng Xun took out his baton, smashed the glass of the counter, picked out a bundled game set from it, and handed it to the squad leader.

"Do you want to be here?" Lee Eun-hye blushed, unable to look directly at this suit, it was simply swaying to the bone.

But today Zheng Xun wanted to punish her, but he had to agree.

"Why, haven't you realized your mistake yet?" Zheng Xun asked leisurely.

Click!

"Is this also wrong?"

"Uh-huh. Wrong, wrong. ”

Zheng Xun whipped one whip after another and whipped it on the squad leader's body.

Until she couldn't hold on at all, sweated profusely, and collapsed on the ground.

"Running out of energy so soon?" Sheriff Zheng still didn't let her go, "I still want to accept the punishment." ”

The squad leader nodded tearfully.

"Sheriff, please keep lashing me."

Zheng Xun nodded in satisfaction and helped her up to a cross.

"Just now it was just the first punishment for you."

"Since you are so willing to accept punishment and so well-behaved, I will reward you well."

"Remember, there will be no permission from me in the future."

"You are not allowed to run around anywhere, and you are not allowed to talk nonsense."

"Otherwise, what awaits you will not be this stick, but this one."

Zheng Xun slowly raised the electric baton, put it in front of the squad leader, turned on the voltage switch, and there was a sizzling sound.

Not tonight.
