Chapter 85 Escaping the Underground Air Raid Shelter

“You can make multiple trips,” Jin Qinjiu said, shrugging. “Or do you have any other better ideas?”

"Then let's go up to the rooftop first." There really wasn't a better way. Mu Qingyu also didn't agree with going to the botanical garden next door; in the apocalypse, the most dangerous thing was mutated plants.

Sometimes, unseen dangers are more terrifying than visible ones.

The people blocking the entrance continued to rush forward, and some of them even fought with the zombies.

But eventually, some people realized they couldn't break through like this. Those whose minds were beginning to clear had slowly retreated.

When they returned and saw that Jin Qinjiu and his group were still standing there without moving, they retreated even more firmly.

Jin Qinjiu instructed his men to pack their belongings, and to take as much supplies as they could.

"There's still so much stuff that we simply can't move," one of Jin Qinjiu's men said regretfully.

They did have a lot of supplies. They were collected by everyone in the hospital together. Li Ke didn't take much when he left. Later, Cheng Xijun and his group took Li Ke's supplies, and Jin Qinjiu took some from Cheng Xijun.

"Let's just abandon what we have to give up! Let's leave here first." Jin Qinjiu felt both heartache and helplessness, but if they couldn't take it with them, they couldn't take it with them, and there was nothing they could do.

Mu Xiaoxiao, who had been hiding in Jin Qinjiu's arms without daring to utter a sound, could no longer hold back at this moment.

Whether in her past life or this one, space and resources have become her greatest obsessions.

"Mu Qingyu, don't you... have spatial abilities?" Mu Xiaoxiao didn't dare to look Mu Qingyu in the eye. Of course, she didn't dare to mention the Blood Jade Bracelet's spatial ability. She felt that if she dared to say it now, Mu Qingyu would really kill her.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes fell on Mu Qingyu's wrist, and she was stunned—there was no bracelet! How could that be?

Mu Qingyu lost the bracelet? Mu Qingyu didn't discover the Blood Jade Bracelet's spatial dimension? A jumble of chaotic thoughts drifted through Mu Xiaoxiao's mind, leaving her completely confused.

Because of Mu Xiaoxiao's words, everyone's attention was focused on Mu Qingyu.

Han Yu and Mu Qingrong couldn't help but be on guard. In the current situation, having superpowers and resources was like holding a gold mine. Who knew how Jin Qinjiu and the others would react?

Mu Qingyu glanced coldly at Mu Xiaoxiao, ignored her, and said directly to Jin Qinjiu, "I can help you get the supplies, but—"

“I understand.” Jin Qinjiu was very cooperative: “Half of the supplies are yours!” It wasn’t that he was being generous, but since he couldn’t take the supplies with him anyway, suddenly getting half of them seemed like a good deal, right?

Moreover, Mu Qingyu was truly astonishing to him. He possessed the physical strength to kill three superhumans at the same time, had a strange fire and electricity superhuman ability, and even had a spatial superhuman ability!

Even if you can't win someone over, you can't afford to offend them! Sincere cooperation is a good start.

Mu Qingyu nodded. Jin Qinjiu was just an average person, but he was smart and knew how to seize opportunities. No wonder he was young and rich before the apocalypse.

Under Jin Qinjiu's guidance, Mu Qingyu successfully collected the supplies they had stockpiled.

Only Mu Xiaoxiao remained completely baffled—where was the bracelet? Where was the bracelet on Mu Qingyu's wrist?

After suffering heavy casualties and failing to break through the defenses, the frenzied and surging crowd finally realized that their rush to break out was a very foolish act.

So they began to retreat.

But not everyone can come back.

The mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood had almost blocked the exit of the air-raid shelter. Those who rushed outside found that they could not break through the blockade of zombies and could not return.

Those still inside were in a better position; after killing all the zombies that had entered the air-raid shelter, no new zombies entered, giving them some breathing room.

It was only then that they realized they actually had a leader. They had simply been living comfortably in the air-raid shelter for a while, and were terrified by the sudden influx of zombies, which is why they fled for their lives in a panic.

"Mr. Jin, what should we do now?" someone asked Jin Qinjiu with some guilt. Jin Qinjiu had tried to stop him when he rushed forward, but at that time, no one was willing to listen.

Some, unable to vent their emotions after surviving the ordeal, angrily accused Jin Qinjiu: "Aren't you our leader? Why did zombies break in? Why did you still send us in knowing we'd die if we charged the door? Were you deliberately making us cannon fodder?"

He finished speaking and then burst into tears. His only sister had also died in the process of rushing through the door; she was now his only remaining relative.

Jin Lin immediately started arguing with this person: "Didn't we stop you? You were acting like madmen and we couldn't stop you. Now you have the nerve to criticize my brother? You..."

Jin Lin launched into a tirade, which only angered some people. What started as just one person suspecting Jin Qinjiu was using them as cannon fodder has now escalated to several accusations and doubts.

Mu Qingyu was getting a headache from their noise, and she couldn't be bothered with Jin Qinjiu's mess. She simply said to him, "You handle your own affairs. See you on the rooftop."

Anyway, their cooperation agreement didn't guarantee they'd help Jin Qinjiu get to the rooftop. If Jin Qinjiu isn't there, at worst the helicopter won't be able to fly; they'll figure something out then.

Mu Qingyu whispered a few words to her people, then pulled Jing Chen aside to talk, and Jing Chen nodded. Then, the group quietly left the bustling crowd and headed back towards the air-raid shelter exit.

There were still a few scattered people guarding the place, but Mu Qingyu ignored them.

The entrance was mostly blocked by corpses, so they had to clear them away first.

After clearing a space about two people wide, zombies quickly rushed in through the gap. Mu Qingyu calmly killed a few before nimbly slipping out.

Next came Han Yu, Jing Chen, Ji Qingqing, and two of Han Yu's subordinates.

The main fighting force went out to clear the way first.

Their goal wasn't to clear out all the zombies outside, but simply to clear a path leading to the stairs.

It wasn't until Mu Qingyu gave the signal from outside that Mu Qingrong helped Mo Huaiyu slip out, followed by the rest of Jing Chen's men.

They were methodical, organized, and had a clear goal, and they didn't make too much noise, which allowed them to carve out a bloody path.

The main fighting force at the front was responsible for clearing out the enemy, while the people at the back were responsible for finishing them off. The group moved smoothly toward the stairwell of the inpatient department.

The few people who were originally guarding the entrance of the air-raid shelter exchanged glances with Mu Qingyu and her group after seeing how orderly they were, and then silently followed them.

The group reached the stairwell smoothly and went up to the second floor, where there were not many zombies left.

The commotion at the entrance to the basement on the first floor was so loud, and there was so much fresh flesh and blood; almost all the zombies were concentrated on the first floor.
