Shen Jing did not go far.

She was sitting on the second floor of the hotel eating watermelon ice.

The porcelain bowl containing watermelon ice was still bubbling with water droplets, and the shaved ice on top was melting very quickly.

She enjoyed the juicy texture of the watermelon, but the room temperature was still quite high, so she had to speed up the process of eating the ice.

But there's nothing more blissful than eating ice in the hottest weather!

Not to mention she also placed a fan next to her.

Shen Jing held the last mouthful of watermelon shaved ice, her eyebrows curving into a smile.

When Gu Yan arrived, he witnessed this scene and thought, "I thought you were in danger."

He hadn't forgotten that she hated soft-bodied leeches the most.

But when he rushed over anxiously, he found that she was completely absorbed in her pleasure and had no desire to leave.

The floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor are very large, and from a distance, all that can be seen is endless darkness, a far cry from the prosperity and glory before the apocalypse.

The city was littered with rubble and debris, turning it into a paradise for zombies and mutants.

The pillar was pitch black, and it was unclear what liquid it was stained with.

Seeing Gu Yan frown in disgust, Shen Jing chuckled and patted the seat beside her: "Come sit here, it's a new chair I took out from my space, it's absolutely clean and hygienic and virus-free."

I told him long ago that he didn't need to come out; his obsession with cleanliness has never improved, whether before or after he lost his memory.

It was alright before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse, this kind of unsanitary environment would absolutely drive someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder crazy.

Could this also be a scheme devised by the God of God to torment Gu Yan?

It has to be said, this move is really ruthless.

Gu Yan did not remove the white gloves he always wore, and his entire body was covered in skin.

He sat in the chair just as before, slumped down as if boneless, like an old man without desires.

"Grandpa? Sir? Would you like some watermelon shaved ice?"

Remembering that he had graciously eaten there that afternoon, she took out another bowl of shaved ice from her spatial storage and handed it to him.

Gu Yan didn't care about the title; he simply lazily accepted the porcelain bowl.

He actually ate calmly right in front of Shen Jing. Seeing Gu Yan's expression, which showed no real enjoyment even towards the ice cream, Shen Jing thought that the big boss had really gotten used to being abstinent and detached from worldly desires over the years.

I only saw his excited expression once.

Shen Jing shook her head.

Pshaw, what are you thinking about?

While you might be easily attracted to the good looks of powerful figures, you should also consider the current environment...

Given the current situation, those people downstairs probably won't be able to stand it for much longer.

The lobby on the first floor wasn't very big, but it was crammed with about a few dozen people. The place was filled with sweat and the stench of cleaning up zombies. They were even eating dry rations in the lobby.

In addition, we need to be wary of that leech monster.

So many people are on edge, ready to explode at the slightest provocation!

Li Chu shared the same idea as Shen Jing.

Her serene expression now seemed strained. Ever since Zhang Run lay "weakly" to the side, the others had become less cooperative. They were unwilling to participate in the discussions about protection and night watch, and even tried to forcibly "borrow" the crystal core from Li Chu.

Currently, Huang Simiao is the highest-ranking member of their team.

However, she is usually easygoing and doesn't seem particularly strong to others.

Even if someone witnessed her strangling zombies, they wouldn't equate Huang Simiao with a powerful figure.

He Qing was injured, and Zhang Run appeared to have overexerted his mental energy. Li Chu, who possessed healing abilities, was also non-aggressive. It was Zhou Lihao, however, who gave those people some pause.

But being physically strong but mentally weak is basically his defining characteristic, so let's skip that.

In conclusion, these people are planning to get a free dinner!

For service-oriented superhumans like Li Chu and Zhang Run, it would actually be better to keep them.

But now the base commander is so badly injured...

Although Huang Zuo and his gang were tied up, the convoy was not only composed of those with ulterior motives.

A buzzing sound filled the lobby as they discussed and glanced in Li Chu's direction.

Li Chu stood next to Zhang Run, the pale light of the flashlight shining on her face, making her look somewhat ominous.

"The Huang family also turned many people in the convoy against their cause."

She handed the phone to Zhang Run, letting him, who was pretending to be sick, see the contents clearly.

Zhang Run had already crushed several crystal cores to replenish his energy and was now basically recovered. After seeing the message in his phone's memo, his expression didn't change at all, at least not outwardly.

"It's just profitable." He calmly typed a few words on his phone.

This city has not only superhumans who don't want to go to the base.

Some went to the base intending to instigate internal strife.

I wonder what benefit they gain from fighting amongst themselves...

Resources? Power?

Zhang Run shook his head, his mind preoccupied with Shen Jing's words and the neutral mutant.

Sometimes, mutated plants and animals might be more valuable than human survivors.

Those people had clearly reached an agreement in private. They'd finally managed to corner He Qing and his group here, and there couldn't be a better opportunity. They didn't care who was in power at the base, as long as they could benefit from it!

He Qing... he was too indecisive with those ordinary survivors!

The supplies were originally painstakingly retrieved by the convoy, but now ordinary survivors have to exchange them for points!

Why should I?!

They felt that the people in the convoy were genuinely following them.

Actually, who doesn't want them to die!

However, there are some idiots who still think about the old ways from before the apocalypse. Ha, those are the ones who die the fastest!

He got arrogant after being called a hero a couple of times.

Don't heroes need to eat and sleep with women? How naive!
