Lin Qingqing tasted the dishes lightly, shamelessly gave herself a full score for her cooking skills, and then arranged each dish.
I thought to myself that my cousin would be very happy to have a ready-made meal when she got home.
Then she hummed a song, cleaned up the mess in the kitchen, left a note for her cousin, and went out with the kitchen waste.
She really didn't dare to stay in such a comfortable environment, for fear that she would sink into it.
The rain outside gradually subsided, but the sky became increasingly gloomy.
Walking on the almost deserted streets, the desolate feeling of the end of the world becomes apparent at this moment.
The buildings on both sides of the road were demolished into pieces, and only occasionally one or two buildings could be seen standing alone in the ruins.
The dismantled building materials were all used to build the high walls. The high walls and barbed wire outside Liancheng required a huge amount of materials. There was no place to put them together in a short time, so they had to tear them down!
Even if the houses of local residents were demolished, the government still provided them with housing.
The survivors who came later, except for the lucky ones who had relatives and friends to rely on, could only exchange supplies for points, and then use the points to rent a house.
There are also free temporary accommodations, which are valid for 10 days. More than a dozen people are squeezed into a small room. Not only do they have to worry about their belongings being stolen, but they also have to worry about lice on their heads and fleas on their bodies.
The most terrifying thing is that it is impossible to prevent the zombies from turning into corpses.
There are always people who turn into zombies without any warning. Due to the unstable situation, the military and the government are unable to conduct a comprehensive investigation.
Lin Qingqing knew why, but she hadn't come up with a good excuse to remind him.
She slept too much during the day and was not sleepy at night. After leaving the community, she planned to find a place to throw away the garbage.
Suddenly a beam of light shot over, and Lin Qingqing subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands, and then she heard the roar of a locomotive engine.
Squeak, squeak, squeak——
The motorcycle came to her at lightning speed. Lin Qingqing was afraid that she would be hit, so she stepped back onto the roadbed.
Then, the black garbage bag in her hand was suddenly pulled.
"Let go!" A fierce voice sounded beside him.
Lin Qingqing let go instantly.
"Shhhhhh!"
The bag was snatched away by a man on the back seat of a motorcycle. The motorcyclist, wearing a helmet, turned around and whistled at her triumphantly.
The car quickly left the crime scene.
Lin Qingqing: I am confused!
At this time, several survivors appeared nearby like ghosts.
"Bah! Garbage!" Someone spat in the direction the motorcycle was leaving.
"It's just garbage!" Lin Qingqing couldn't help but tell the truth.
"This kind of rubbish must die!"
"I'll be killed sooner or later!"
"Kill them... Hey, they're turning back again, run!"
As the man spoke, he ran towards the ruins like a monkey.
The people around also dispersed.
Lin Qingqing thought it was fun and ran away with them.
Even a motorcycle cannot drive into the ruins of such a house.
These survivors couldn't afford to rent a house, so they found some basements under the ruins to live in without having to pay rent. If they were lucky, they could even find some warehouses.
Lin Qingqing followed them, and these people did not chase her away. She dodged left and right and got into a building that looked like a garbage room.
After entering, I found that there was an iron gate here.
It seems that they deliberately pushed the garbage room here to cover it.
At this time, the door was open.
"Hurry, hurry, don't let them find us." The person inside the door shouted anxiously.
"Boss, Lao Wu hasn't come back yet, we can't close the door."
The person who brought Lin Qingqing here said this to the people inside, and then shouted at Lin Qingqing: "You go down first, I'll go outside to lead them away."
Quite loyal!
Lin Qingqing was stunned when she saw the person who opened the door, and unconsciously took out a knife.
Not the boss!
It was the second brother, the one who was tied up by her and Qiao Ruoran and thrown into the bamboo forest!
The second brother froze instantly when he saw Lin Qingqing, with pleading and anxious expressions in his eyes.
"I'll go! I can run fast."
Lin Qingqing stared at him, then suddenly turned around and walked out of the garbage room.
The situation in the basement is unclear, so don't bother her if you don't want to!
She returned along the same route, and when she came out, the two motorcyclists were gone. Maybe they went looking for her?
Lin Qingqing had no intention of looking for them. As for the second brother, it seemed that it had nothing to do with her?
Anyway, I didn’t suffer any loss!
After a lot of trouble, it was almost 11 o'clock when we got back to the hotel.
Lin Qingqing took off her clothes and went to bed.
The next morning, she had planned to show up at Qian Xiaomin's house.
When I was halfway there, I remembered that it would be unreasonable to go straight to the door.
She shouldn't know where Qian Xiaomin's home is at this moment!
So, earn points first!
She now has more than a thousand points, and she has to pay back a thousand to her cousin, leaving only a few hundred. She suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
Collecting supplies is the fastest way to gain points, so Lin Qingqing plans to go to the city to take a look.
On the way, I bought some steamed buns and steamed bread at a snack bar and ate them while walking towards the exit of the base.
It is very simple to leave the base, just swipe your card.
Survivors gathered at the entrance to the gate, and every day there were teams going out to look for supplies.
There are also people recruiting teammates.
"We're only two short of two to head west! No women!"
"Going to Ren Town, we need men, drivers, thugs, doctors..."
"Xiyue Community, is there anyone going to Xiyue Community? Take one with me and I'll give you 20 points." A woman called.
The shouts of team members at the door were endless.
Lin Qingqing is self-aware that today's society belongs to men!
Not only women like men, men also like men.
So she never thought about joining their team and asking for trouble.
But she still wanted to get a ride, but the base cordon was in place, making the roads to other areas of the city extremely dangerous.
The zombies that were blocked outside the cordon formed a zombie swarm.
After spending ten points, Lin Qingqing got on a pickup truck heading to the west of the city.
There were at least twenty people in the truck bed, all of them looked pale and thin.
Most of the jobs in the base are full, and more than half of the survivors have to go out to find supplies, or find low-priced temporary jobs in the base to barely avoid starvation.
The Liancheng Base is located in the southern part of the original big city, facing the city center across the river.
A force of only 10,000 people was not enough to clear the city center with a population of hundreds of thousands.
After several attempts to clear the streets, the base commander decisively gave up. The urban area was too densely populated, and the slightest mistake would result in the group being wiped out.
After driving for half an hour, the car drove onto the bridge across the river. As soon as it got off the bridge, the driver stopped the car.
Two men got out of the front seat, slapping the side of the car with machetes in their hands: "We're here, everyone get out!"
"Aren't we going to the west of the city? This is just the beginning of crossing the river!" someone said dissatisfiedly.
"This is the west of the city. Hurry up and get off the bus." The tall man said indifferently, and with a bang, he pulled out the latch of the fender at the rear of the car and lowered the fender.
"We've only just crossed the bridge... You guys are so shady! I won't take your bus next time." People complained, but they still got off the bus one after another. They didn't dare to quarrel with such powerful people.
The man sneered indifferently: "Wait until you come back alive and we'll talk about it!"
