After a ten-minute drive, Li Xin'er could see the beach below from the road.

Many small buildings have gradually appeared on both sides of the road, with various colorful and eye-catching patterns painted on their exterior walls.

If you walk any further, you'll reach a market street that stretches as far as the eye can see. There aren't many zombies wandering around the streets, just a few here and there.

Perhaps because it wasn't peak tourist season, there weren't many people around.

Li Xin'er slowed down the car and spread her soul power to search the surrounding houses, discovering that there were still survivors in several houses.

The shops here are mostly selling swimwear, swim rings, and swimming equipment, as well as small convenience stores, shops, and guesthouses...

Li Xin'er didn't like any of these things, so she gave up the idea of ​​getting out of the car to collect the supplies. She stepped on the gas and sped away, heading straight to the seaside villa area.

The gate to the villa area was locked, and the security booth was empty.

Li Xin'er parked her car at the entrance and used her soul power to scan the area, discovering that there were very few people in the area and most of the villas were empty.

The villas are built against the mountain and face the sea. They are arranged in two rows, with ten villas in each row. From the outside, the villas are all the same in style and size.

Li Xin'er's scan only found five living people: four in Villa No. 1, which is closest to the gate, and one in Villa No. 18, which is further back.

The sound of the car also caught the attention of the three people drinking on the first floor of Villa No. 1.

Because there are too many large trees and other obstructions outside the first floor, they can hear the sounds at the main entrance, but they can't see it; they have to go up to the second floor to see it.

Zhou Yong hadn't even put down the bottle of liquor he was holding when he staggered to his feet and jogged up to the second floor.

Hidden behind the curtains, I cautiously peered towards the front door, and then was quite shocked.

"Holy crap, this car is awesome!"

Chen Jianjun, who followed closely behind, is a car enthusiast. He recognized the car model at a glance.

"I've seen pictures of it online. It's called something like 'Predator.' This car isn't sold in China; you can only buy it overseas. Even the base model costs over ten million."

Tang Zheng, his face flushed with drunkenness, had eyes that were already somewhat bulging, but now they were wide open, looking as if his eyeballs were about to pop out.

He leaned forward, found a spot, and glanced inside. He then quickly drew the curtains, pacing back and forth anxiously, clutching his hands.

"Oh no, oh no, they're so rich, they must be one of the homeowners, right? What if they find out about us..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Yong interrupted him with a shout.

"Tang Zheng, shut up!"

Zhou Yong was around thirty years old, with piercing eyes that showed a lot of white in his eyes, giving him a sinister and fierce look.

"You need to know what you should say and what you shouldn't say."

Tang Zheng was clearly afraid of him, shrinking back timidly and raising three fingers to swear an oath.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore."

Chen Jianjun then spoke up to ease the tension, patting Tang Zheng on the shoulder.

"You're just too nervous. So what if he's the head of the household? It's the end of the world, what's there to be afraid of?"

As he spoke, he leaned leisurely against the window, lifted the curtain with one finger, looked at the car in front of the door, and sighed.

"If we had this car, we'd be unbeatable on the road!"

The dimly lit room concealed the burning desire and determination in his eyes.

Suddenly, from the room across the hall, came the sound of a woman making "mmm" noises, along with the sound of kicking and stomping on the door.

Zhou Yong's face darkened, he changed the way he held the wine bottle, and went to the other side by the neck of the bottle.

As they walked to the other side, they didn't forget to whisper instructions.

"Jianjun, you keep an eye on things. I'm going to check on that troublemaker."

Chen Jianjun pressed his face against the window, staring outside without even turning his head.

"Leave this to me, keep it down."

Tang Zheng was a little nervous and sat directly at the foot of the large bed in the room, not daring to make any big movements.

Chen Jianjun glanced back at him and sneered:

"Look at you, so nervous."

"I···"

Just as Tang Zheng was about to speak, the sound of breaking glass came from the opposite room, accompanied by Zhou Yong's fierce curses and the sound of slaps.

Chen Jianjun frowned in displeasure.

"Tell him to keep his voice down. Is he really afraid the people at the door won't hear him? Tang Zheng, go and remind him again. Business is important."

Tang Zheng hesitated for a few seconds, then stood up and went to the other side.

Pushing open the door, I saw Zhou Yong grabbing the woman's hair, slapping her repeatedly across the face, and threatening her viciously:

"If you fucking misbehave again, I'll chop you up!"

The woman appeared to be in her early twenties. She was completely naked and bound tightly with thick ropes, and her mouth was stuffed with cloth.

His body was covered in bruises, and his face was swollen and red from being beaten. It was clear that he had suffered a lot before.

Tang Zheng couldn't bear it any longer and looked away, then went inside and whispered a reminder.

"Brother Yong, Brother Jun, please keep your voice down. This is important."

Zhou Yong turned around and glared at him impatiently, then tossed the woman aside like a rag doll.

"You stay here and keep an eye on her."

After making the arrangements, he walked past Tang Zheng and returned to the other side.

The woman lay motionless on the ground for a while. Tang Zheng was at a loss, so he walked over and touched the woman's calf with his foot.

"Hello."

No response.

Tang Zheng panicked. Was he going to be beaten to death?

He quickly squatted down to check on her, brushed aside the woman's loose hair, and made eye contact with her.

The woman's eyes blazed with hatred, as if she wanted to skin the person in front of her alive and eat their flesh.

Tang Zheng was so startled that he leaned back and instinctively kicked out, which landed squarely on the woman's stomach.

The woman groaned and curled up even more tightly.
