Chapter 21: One Code at a Time

The girl was very beautiful, with long, slightly curly hair falling on her shoulders, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and bright lips. She was truly a beauty.

However, behind the girl, there was a handsome man.

This is not the end, one after another people walked out from the shadows.

Xue Rong: “?”

He counted carefully, one, two, three... four... five.

Five people? ?

This guy Lu Yuanze actually brought five people back this time!

The romantic emotions in Xue Rong's heart disappeared instantly, and he stood up suddenly.

"Lu Yuanze, what are you doing!"

Lu Yuanze ignored him and walked straight past him to an empty place inside.

"Just rest here and wait, I'll get you a new blanket."

As he spoke, Lu Yuanze walked past Xue Rong again.

Xue Rong suddenly became even more furious, and yelled at Lu Yuanze's back: "Lu Yuanze, are you mentally ill? What's going on outside now? Why are you still bringing people in here every day?!"

Hu Zi couldn't bear to listen any longer and couldn't help but say, "Xue Rong, it's not right for you to say that. It was Brother Lu who saved you in the supermarket."

"One thing is one thing. He saved me, and I thank him, but it's wrong for him to keep bringing people here."

Xue Rong's attitude was very firm, and he showed no intention of giving in. "I've said it before, the food in the supermarket is not unlimited. If he keeps doing what he wants, how long will the food here last us? What will we do then?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the other survivors in the supermarket turned a little ugly.

Although Xue Rong's words were not directed at them at the moment, they were still extremely harsh to the ears.

"According to you, shouldn't Brother Lu bring us back?"

"The more dangerous it is outside, the more we should help each other, right?"

"That's right, people can't be so selfish."

Xue Rong was scolded and said through gritted teeth: "You were all rescued by Lu Yuanze, so you should speak for him now. Later when there is not enough food, you will know that what I said is right..."

He was interrupted before he could finish his words. Hu Zi forced a biscuit into his mouth, choking him and making him speechless.

Hu Zi patted the biscuit crumbs on his hands and sighed: "Alright, stop talking now."

As he spoke, Hu Zi looked at the five people on Yan Chu's side.

"It's okay, don't worry about it. Since Brother Lu brought you back, we are all friends now."

Compared to the aggressive Xue Rong, Hu Zi's attitude is obviously much better.

Chen Qianxing was originally very nervous, fearing that he would have a conflict with the people here, but except for Xue Rong, everyone else was very gentle towards them.

He relaxed a lot and soon started chatting with Hu Zi familiarly.

Hu Zi was a little surprised to hear that they were not rescued by Lu Yuanze on their own initiative, but were discovered by Lu Yuanze after they escaped into the supermarket.

"That's not right. I remember I locked all the rolling shutters. Which door of the mall did you enter from?"

Yan Chu subconsciously touched the gun hidden at her waist and remained silent.

Chen Qianxing and Luo Yu looked at each other and tacitly remained silent.

Although they didn't know where Yan Chu got the gun, since Yan Chu didn't mention it, they pretended not to know about it.

Gu Qinyuan casually played with the folding knife in his hand, and said nonchalantly: "You must have remembered it wrongly. When we came in, the shutter door was not locked."

Hu Zi scratched his head in confusion: "No lock?"

When the power went out the day before yesterday, he went to check it out, and everything was clearly locked properly.

Maybe Brother Lu forgot to lock it when he came back.

Brother Lu is so careless.

When Lu Yuanze came back with two thick quilts, he saw Xue Rong sitting alone in the corner with a gloomy look on his face.

The others sat around Yan Chu and chatted with them, and they seemed to be getting along pretty well.

As if noticing his gaze, Yan Chu raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yuanze.

Lu Yuanze smiled, walked over and put the quilt in his hand on the open space, and patiently helped her spread it out: "It might be a little cold in the supermarket at night, so I brought two thick quilts. If you're still cold, tell me."

Yan Chu nodded: "Thank you."

Lu Yuanze was stunned, lowered his head and said nothing.

Chen Qianxing stared blankly at the two thick quilts, one was obviously used as a cushion and the other was obviously used as a cover.

No matter how you look at it, it seems to be for Yan Chu alone.

He couldn't help but ask, "What about us?"

Lu Yuanze glanced at him coldly: "Don't you have hands? Can't you get it?"

Chen Qianxing: “…”

He was the one who spoke too much. He should have thought of it earlier.

There were originally seven people in this supermarket. Except for Hu Zi and Xue Rong, the other four were rescued by Lu Yuanze.

After these four people saved their lives, they never dared to leave the supermarket again.

Therefore, they now know nothing about the situation outside.

Someone asked curiously: "What's the situation outside now? Is there any rescue? Is there any army?"

Chen Qianxing's eyes dimmed a little and he shook his head.

The man was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's right, if there were, you wouldn't be here."

Chen Qianxing sighed slightly: "In fact, I almost couldn't get here."

As he spoke, he told them in detail about the conflict he had with Yang Lei and the others in the hotel.

"If I had entered the elevator at that time, I would probably have become a zombie by now." Chen Qianxing said in a low voice.

Hu Zi, who was standing by, was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this: "They are getting what they deserve!"

Luo Yu felt a little complicated when listening to Hu Zi's words.

Is it true that evil will be punished?

However, the women who lived with her in the master bedroom were obviously very kind to her. They all spontaneously shared the saved food with Luo Yiyi and also took good care of their only child.

They were definitely not bad people, but they died tragically in the elevator.

In the face of natural disasters and man-made disasters, there is no distinction between good and evil. Perhaps it is just a matter of one thought that leads to one wrong step and then another.

Just like escaping into this supermarket now, at first glance they seem safe, but who knows what will happen next?

Hu Zi suddenly remembered something at this time: "By the way, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

Yan Chu and the others had eaten their fill before setting out, so they were naturally not hungry at this moment. Several of them shook their heads in unison.

Lu Yuanze thought they were embarrassed to say they were hungry because Xue Rong had said that.

He thought about it and decided to go with Hu Zi to get some bagged bread and distribute it to everyone.

"These breads have a short shelf life. They'll be wasted if they expire. Let's eat them together."

Yan Chu took the blueberry jam sandwich bread that Hu Zi handed to her and pinched it out of habit, but inexplicably felt that the originally bulging bread bag seemed to have deflated a little.

"Um?"

Yan Chu pinched it again in confusion, and sure enough, it deflated again.
