After the two men left, Song Zhi was still waiting for Guo Xiong to bring people to the supermarket to shop again.

These days, Guo Xiong brings people here every day without fail.

But this time, Song Zhi waited until dark, but no one came.

“Haha…”

Looking at the sky outside which had completely fallen into darkness, Song Zhi stretched himself and said lazily, "It looks like there won't be any more guests today..."

-

At the same time, Beiyuan Base.

Guo Xiong is facing the most difficult moment in his life.

This afternoon, he originally wanted to gather those people together and announce that he would no longer take them to the supermarket, and those who knew the way could take this position.

But before he could gather those people together.

Two guards found him and said that their superiors wanted to see him.

Something happened upstairs and he had to go.

Even before he went there, he already had a vague feeling that this would be related to the supermarket.

He was taken to the building in the middle of the base and led by the guards to the top floor on the left.

If he remembered correctly, that was the office of the captain of the collection team and the son of the leader of the Beiyuan base.

Once before, when he was out collecting supplies, he accidentally picked up a crystal core and handed it in. For this, he was rewarded with a week's worth of food.

The reward was received in this office.

But this time, he is not here to receive a reward, on the contrary, he will be punished.

"Captain Chir told you to go in and find him directly. We have work to do. Please go in on your own."

Two guards stood on either side of Guo Xiong, one on the left and one on the right, as if escorting a prisoner. When they arrived at the place, they sent Guo Xiong to the door.

"Two big brothers, do you know why the captain wants to see me?"

Guo Xiong swallowed nervously and looked at the two people next to him with a praying look.

But the two guards next to him seemed not to hear it. They pushed Guo Xiong forward and turned away.

The office door was ajar and opened with a slight touch.

Guo Xiong staggered and took several steps inside before he managed to steady himself.

When I looked up, I met a familiar gaze.

"Qi...Captain Qi'er, is there something you want to talk to me about?" Guo Xiong spoke haltingly.

As he spoke, his legs began to tremble unconsciously.

Help, he couldn't control it, he just wanted to tremble!

Qi'er smiled, his hands on the table, and answered Guo Xiong's question calmly.

"I heard that you haven't been out gathering supplies much lately? Is it because there's no one to team up with?"

Almost all the people who had gone out with Guo Xiong to collect supplies had died. Everyone in the base knew about it at the time, and Qi'er was the same.

Guo Xiong was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, Captain. I haven't found anyone to go with yet."

"Oh? Do you have enough supplies for your life?" Qi'er pretended to be surprised.

Guo Xiong felt uneasy at his expression, but he still nodded and said, "Enough...enough."

The food in the supermarket is cheap and delicious, and of course enough for their family of three!

"Heh." Qi'er snorted coldly, and then his expression suddenly changed.

"Really? I see you didn't find anyone to team up with, but you found some supplies outside and hid them secretly instead of turning them in to the base!"

All materials collected by the collection team must be handed over to the base unconditionally. This is a rule that was established when the base was first established.

But at this time, Guo Xiong violated this rule.

Even if he bought those supplies from the supermarket with his own money, it would not work.

When Qi'er said this, even a fool like Guo Xiong understood that Qi'er knew about the supermarket.

But he still wanted to make an argument.

"Captain, I didn't mean to withhold the supplies. I bought all the food from the supermarket, so it should be counted as my own."

"Oh, alone?" Qi'er laughed. "The base is keeping you safe, and you're still trying to make excuses by taking the supplies for yourself?"

"But……"

Before Guo Xiong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qi'er.

"No buts. Your behavior is terrible. According to the base rules, you should be expelled from the base. However, the base will let you go because it's your first offense. As long as you take us to that supermarket and get the supplies, the base can let you go. You..."

"no!"

When Guo Xiong heard that Qi'er had ideas about the supplies in that supermarket, he flatly refused.

It was the first time he dared to speak so loudly to the base leadership.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned and began to feel scared.

After all, he had been obedient for a long time, and it would take some time for him to change his mind.

"No? Do you know what you're saying? You're not taking the base seriously!"

Qi'er didn't expect that someone in the base would dare to refute his words.

Normally, we have to listen to whatever he says.

"I didn't neglect the base. The supermarket owner was very kind and generously sold us food..."

As Guo Xiong was speaking, a sudden flash of inspiration came to his mind.

"Captain, that supermarket has a wide variety of supplies at reasonable prices. We can actually trade directly with the supermarket owner. He's a very nice guy and should agree to sell supplies to our base."

Guo Xiong suddenly thought that the base had money and the supermarket on Song Zhi's side had supplies.

If they can cooperate, it will be a win-win situation, and everyone will get what they want.

But Guo Xiong's proposal was destined not to be what Qi'er wanted.

In his eyes, all supplies in the north should be unconditionally donated to their base.
