Chapter 148 Temporary Camp

“She’s been like that since the first day she arrived here. At first, I thought she just disliked me. Then I realized she dislikes everyone equally…” The child shrugged as she spoke.

"But so far, apart from occasionally causing trouble, she hasn't been very dangerous. She seems to be unable to lift a finger or do anything... so everyone just ignores her. The most dangerous person is actually that Li Wenhao!"

Mu Qingyu was also observing Li Wenhao, whom the child had mentioned.

With Li Wenhao at the center, a group of about six or seven people, who all looked like students, surrounded him.

“Ever since we picked up Li Wenhao, Brother Xiao has been looking for a safe place to stay. This place isn’t actually that far from Li Wenhao’s original address,” the child continued to explain.

“Because this place is close to the university town, many students live nearby. That day, after we rescued Li Wenhao and his three classmates, Li Wenhao said that his girlfriend also lived nearby and asked Brother Xiao to go and rescue his girlfriend as well.”

At this point, Tong Yin sounded indignant: "Brother Xiao is usually a very rational person. Although he's a bit soft-hearted, he's generally reasonable. But I don't know what their relationship is, but when it comes to Li Wenhao, Brother Xiao seems to have lost his mind!"

"You know what?" the child exclaimed, gesturing wildly as he described, "Brother Xiao is like he's under Li Wenhao's spell, he listens to him completely! He says he's going to save his girlfriend, but why don't you save your own girlfriend? Why are you making us go?"

"But Brother Xiao insisted on agreeing, even when Brother Huang tried to stop him, he wouldn't listen. He even said it was fine if we didn't go, he could go and see for himself by himself..."

"Brother Huang Jie was definitely worried about him going alone, so he had to risk his life to accompany him... That time, I didn't get out of the car and stayed with Li Wenhao and the others. It was during that time that Brother Huang Jie almost got bitten by a zombie!"

"As it turned out, Li Wenhao's girlfriend couldn't be saved. When they went to the address Li Wenhao gave them, there were only three zombies in the house. His girlfriend and her roommates died that night in the extreme cold and turned into zombies."

"But there were two girls living next door, and Brother Xiao rescued them."

"From then on, Li Wenhao gave Brother Xiao a hard time every day, as if Brother Xiao had killed his girlfriend! Damn it, you love your girlfriend so much, and you two live only two neighborhoods apart, why didn't you rush to save her right away?" Tong Yin complained angrily.

Perhaps because so much time had passed, Tong Yin had accumulated a bellyful of resentment with nowhere to vent it. Today, she finally encountered Mu Qingyu, a person with very low malice towards others and stable emotions, and she couldn't control her urge to complain.

The rest of the story is quite simple.

Although Xiao Shiyang failed to save Li Wenhao's daughter, he picked up two more people on the way, and the SUV was instantly packed with them.

What used to be a two-hour journey took them six days, so returning to Huang Jie's home wouldn't be suitable. Besides, Huang Jie's home didn't have any extra supplies, nor could it accommodate so many people.

Huang Jie is from out of town. After graduating from university, he stayed here to work hard. He rented a house and carried his valuables with him. Although he wanted to go back to his hometown to see his parents, given the current situation, it was unrealistic for him to return to his hometown, which was thousands of miles away.

Therefore, Huang Jie supported Xiao Shiyang's decision to find a place to live nearby.

Xiao Shiyang chose the theater because it had a large water tank, where there was pre-apocalyptic water that could be drunk.

At the beginning, there were only nine of them in the theater, but later, every time Xiao Shiyang went out to find supplies, he would bring back one or two people, who were rescued by them on the way to find supplies.

Most of them were residents from the neighborhood. Some had to flee because their doors were torn open by zombies, while others were surrounded by zombies while searching for supplies.

Now, almost two months into the apocalypse, the theater has grown from nine people to thirty or forty.

“Actually, there were more people originally!” the child said.

"But some things happened in between. Some of the people who were rescued had ulterior motives. There are all kinds of people in the world!"

"Some people coveted everyone's supplies, trying to steal everyone's supplies in the middle of the night and run home, but they were eventually discovered. There were also those who harassed female college students in the middle of the night!" The child's voice was particularly indignant when talking about this!

"Not only did he intend to take advantage of the girls, but he even tried to brainwash and instigate Brother Xiao and the others to do the same thing, so that Brother Xiao would imprison all of us girls! He really has a dream!"

"Later, I got a severe beating from Brother Xiao and Brother Huang Jie and was thrown out!"

"There are also all sorts of strange people. It was around that time that I discovered that the numbers I was seeing were people's malice values. So later, we used the malice values ​​I could see to determine who could stay."

"In my opinion, anyone with a malice level exceeding 20 can be driven away! Because I've found that people who easily have a malice level exceeding 20 are all quite strange."

"But Brother Xiao disagrees. Because by my standards, at least two-thirds of the people should have been driven away at that time! That includes Li Wenhao!"

Tong Yin grits her teeth every time Li Wenhao is mentioned.

"After some discussion, Brother Xiao set the remaining malice value at 50... Anyway, I didn't have much say. To be honest, apart from being able to see other people's malice value, I'm pretty useless..."

At this point, Tong Yin's mood soured: "I'm not strong enough to kill zombies. If I go out with Brother Xiao and the others to find supplies, I'll only be a burden to them... So, my opinion isn't important, is it..."

Tongyin seems to have a pretty clear understanding of her own position.

"So later, some people were driven away, and among those who were rescued, those with a malice value exceeding 50 were not kept. Gradually, only the current group remained."

"There have been fewer newcomers in the past month. Those who lack ability and need help are likely dead before they even met Brother Xiao and the others. Many of those who are capable can now support themselves, so there's no need for them to come to the theater. Actually, the conditions here aren't that great..."

"Before Brother Xiao and the others returned this time, we hadn't distributed supplies for two days. The last time Brother Xiao and the others went out, they came back empty-handed..."

"Oh, right!" Tong Yin suddenly clapped her hands. "I forgot to tell you, Brother Xiao is a fire-type ability user. He can breathe fire and burn off a zombie's head in an instant. Brother Huang Jie is incredibly fast; when he's fighting a zombie, you can only see a shadow..."
