Jia Wenkai became somewhat interested in these people, so he instructed his subordinates: "Go and invite them up! Literally, invite them in politely, I have some questions for them."

At the same time, Jia Wenkai herded all the naked women in the hall into the house and stopped his dissolute subordinates.

So Xiao Shiyang and his three companions were politely invited by Jia Wenkai to the tenth floor.

Xiao Shiyang originally wanted to make contact with the people here, and since they were invited so politely, they naturally went.

Upon meeting them, Jia Wenkai smiled warmly: "Hello, my surname is Jia, but they all call me Brother Kai. The people here were originally employees of the building, working-class people, overtime dogs. After the apocalypse, we couldn't go back, so we simply stayed and survived here."

"This is the first time we've had outsiders in our building, so we apologize for the intrusion and asked you to come up. May we ask how you ended up here?"

Jia Wenkai was in his early thirties. Before the apocalypse, he was the owner of a security company and always dressed impeccably, appearing as a refined and elegant elite.

Although it's the end of the world, he possesses the best resources in the entire building, so it remains as it was before the apocalypse.

Xiao Shiyang and Huang Jie secretly observed Jia Wenkai and the people here, and found that these people seemed to be living well, and none of them looked pale and sickly.

"Is this building really that well-stocked?" This question arose in both Xiao Shiyang's and Huang Jie's minds at the same time.

“We live near Wenxin Jiayuan. We came out today specifically to look for supplies, but we didn’t expect there to be people already in the building,” Xiao Shiyang replied.

Wenxin Jiayuan is a residential community near the drama theater. He was careful not to mention the drama theater directly.

“Warm Home? I know where that is.” Jia Wenkai was a little surprised: “Did you come on foot? It’s not exactly close, but it’s not far either.” But on foot, in the post-apocalyptic world, it would take most of the day or even a whole day.

"We drove here, but our car got damaged halfway there. We were robbed, what bad luck!" Wu Peng blurted out his experience without any guile.

Xiao Shiyang and Huang Jie frowned slightly at the same time. They glanced at Wu Peng imperceptibly, then exchanged a secret look.

When Jia Wenkai heard the word "robbery," he raised an eyebrow. Zhao Daqiang had just left with his men this morning. Could it be Zhao Daqiang and his gang?

Jia Wenkai immediately denied it—if it really was Zhao Daqiang, these people wouldn't be here talking unharmed.

Zhao Daqiang personally led the team out, and those he robbed were either killed on the spot or beaten half to death and then tied up and brought back... These four looked completely unharmed.

"You four are really amazing! You managed to escape unscathed even after being robbed." Jia Wenkai praised them, then changed the subject, "But I'm a little curious, why didn't you go to the commercial street to look for supplies? If I remember correctly, there's a student street near Wenxin Garden, right?"

He is a local and very familiar with the surrounding terrain.

“A lot of people go there.” Huang Jie interrupted, afraid that Wu Peng would interrupt again and say something irrelevant: “Many places have been searched multiple times. Students from nearby schools also go there; they are all young kids, so let’s leave the student street to them.”

What he said was true.

But when Jia Wenkai heard "young students," his eyes suddenly lit up—how ​​could he not have thought of that!

Why bother arresting people in residential areas?! The people there are all sorts of people, and it's such a hassle to bring families along!

Why not just go to the university town to arrest them?!

They're all young students; too much reading makes them less combative. Young chicks are easily brainwashed, and female students are in the prime of their youth...aren't they much better than those haggard housewives in the residential area?

In the blink of an eye, Jia Wenkai had thought of many things, and a plan to arrest people was slowly forming in his mind.

Sure enough, calling these people up to talk was useful. See, their thinking immediately clicked!

Huang Jie vaguely sensed that Jia Wenkai's expression was not quite right, and he also noticed something else—so far, all they had seen here were burly men; they hadn't seen a single woman.

This is an office building; it's impossible that the survivors were all men, and all of them were physically strong men.

"How many of you survived? Where did the others go?" Huang Jie asked tentatively.

Jia Wenkai's face was full of smiles. He had already imagined the scene of catching many, many female college students, and he couldn't suppress his smile.

"Ah, the others? Some of them went out early this morning to collect supplies. We take turns going out, and today it just so happens that I'm the one staying behind." Jia Wenkai made up a lie with his eyes wide open.

"And you? Quite a few people survived at Warm Home, right? Is there any rescue organized? Did you go out today to collect things on your own, or to do a group task?" Jia Wenkai then inquired about other things.

The people living in Warm Home seem to be quite wealthy. This is a good opportunity to test their true colors. After dealing with the college students, perhaps Warm Home could be the next target.

The two sides went back and forth probing and asking questions for several rounds.

After talking for a while, Xiao Shiyang and Huang Jie exchanged glances—they both felt that this group of people was very abnormal.

The group consisted entirely of burly men, while the others glared at them menacingly as they spoke to Jia Wenkai.

This wouldn't normally be considered wrong; it's the apocalypse, after all, and everyone is wary of strangers. But their eyes were very strange. It wasn't the usual wariness towards strangers, but more like the gaze of wild beasts stalking their prey, ready to strike.
