Later, Feng Xuanlang learned from the boy who invented the anesthetic needle that Commander Li's drastic change was due to an incident that occurred a couple of days prior.
Fortunately, due to the sudden outbreak of zombies, no one in Building 2 turned into a zombie.
However, screams were frequently heard from other buildings, which were obviously caused by zombies.
New zombies kept pouring into the neighborhood, which made Commander Li very anxious.
Extreme weather has already made life difficult for everyone, and now zombies have appeared. These things are inhuman; they bite, eat, and spread disease.
Commander Li wanted to protect these survivors, so he organized everyone to fight back against the zombies.
At first, no one knew that zombies were so difficult to deal with; they could be slashed several times without even getting a scratch. However, they clashed with the zombies because they wanted to close the gates of the residential area.
The final result was one death and one injury. Knowing that the injury would be contagious, Jiang Yi chose to lock the gate of the community alone, but he died tragically without the gate being closed.
Jiang Yi's family watched helplessly as he walked alone, injured, towards the gate, unable to call him back for treatment; his grandmother went insane.
This result made Commander Li feel very guilty; he couldn't forgive himself for ruining two families with just one decision.
But no one blamed him from the beginning; everyone participated voluntarily.
However, Commander Li still couldn't let it go, so everyone stopped all operations and sealed off the building's main entrance, preventing anyone from leaving.
Upon hearing this, Yue Wu and Feng Xuanlang both understood Commander Li.
In such a difficult environment, it was really not easy for everyone to survive. What saddened Commander Li was that some people died because of their own actions. He felt that he had let everyone down.
This reflects the older generation's sense of responsibility and reverence for life.
Afterwards, everyone moved all the supplies onto the truck, stacking them high until the truck was completely full. This showed that the people in Building 2 had never stopped collecting supplies, which is a true example of survival in the apocalypse.
Everyone drove away from Hongxing Community in any available car, a scene that stunned the other residents, who were very envious.
Actually, when Yuewu and his group first entered the residential area, they were noticed by some survivors upstairs.
Their slaughter of zombies, in particular, made these people fear that it was some kind of violent gang, so no one dared to come down.
But when they left with so many supplies, and there were seven or eight more vehicles following behind, all the survivors realized that these people were moving away.
With their skills and teamwork, they would definitely find a better path if they left with them.
So the survivors went downstairs to try and catch up with Yuewu and the others, but when they came down, Zhang Dahui was already closing the gate and tying it with wire.
This can be considered a gift to the community. As long as they are willing to fight back, they can enjoy a period of peace after dealing with the zombies in the community.
Indeed, the survivors who came down to earth were mostly carrying weapons for self-defense.
When they realized they couldn't catch up after getting down, and then the zombies surrounded them, they thought of the scene where Yuewu and the others were killing everyone. The zombies weren't so scary after all.
So these people also picked up weapons and began to resist. After the first time, everyone was no longer afraid, and Red Star Community became the first community in City A to completely eliminate all the zombies.
Upon returning to the villa complex, Commander Li and his men were deeply shocked. The defenses of the complex and the morale of the people there were beyond their wildest imaginations, especially considering that this place had once been abandoned.
And now, this place is a pure land!
Afterwards, accommodations were assigned to everyone. Originally, they were supposed to manage their own supplies, but Commander Li made a decision that was unanimously agreed upon by the team: all supplies would be handed over to the villa complex for unified management.
It's essentially a surrender. Feng Xuanlang and Yue Wu had no objections, which is actually better, as it will make it less likely for problems to arise when distributing things later.
This also shows that the old leader is indeed an old leader, and he thinks things through more thoroughly.
The rest was left to Sister Zhang and Sister Du. Feng Xuanlang and Le Wu went to Commander Li and told him about their other idea.
Feng Xuanlang hoped that Commander Li could serve as the overall leader of the entire villa complex and be responsible for managing all matters related to the villa complex.
With more people involved, some friction is inevitable, so an experienced leader is needed to organize things.
Everything can even be managed like a military operation, since the current environment requires everyone to have the ability to protect themselves.
Looking at the two men in front of him, Commander Li knew that they not only trusted him, but also wanted him to get back on his feet.
This world cannot afford endless sorrow; only by moving forward can we allow more people to see the beauty of tomorrow.
The idea behind the music and dance performance is that one day in the future, the villa complex might encounter official forces, with Commander Li in charge, which would make many things much simpler.
Commander Li ate two large pancakes with gusto, and in the end, he successfully persuaded them.
Feng Xuanlang can finally relax and let the old leader rekindle his youth.
On the way back, Yue Wu asked Feng Xuanlang, "Why don't you want to be the manager of the villa complex?"
Feng Xuanlang looked directly into Yue Wu's eyes, "Because I have things I want to do."
Yue Wu felt that great minds think alike; if they stayed in the villa complex, they wouldn't be able to get away to look for others, so she was now doing her best to make the villa complex safer.
Without asking any further questions, Yue Wu and Feng Xuanlang parted ways and headed toward the tunnel.
Feng Xuanlang stood quietly watching Yue Wu leave until she was out of sight before turning around and going home.
