Jiang Wenxi turned around and saw an old lady whose clothes had become discolored and stiff from being washed so many times.
"I'm the store manager. Are you sure you want me to queue here?"
When the aunt heard that it was the store manager, she grabbed the man and refused to let go.
"Hey guys, the manager is here."
The aunt's shout not only alarmed the people around her, but also the people in the store came out.
Xu Han glanced outside and accurately located Jiang Wenxi. She was too eye-catching, with fair skin and the cleanest clothes.
An absolute standout in the crowd.
Jiang Wenxi didn't even wait for Xu Ran to make a move, and put the gun in her hand against the old lady's forehead.
"Keep your dirty hands off me."
The encirclement that had just been formed was instantly dispersed, and Jiang Wenxi said coldly: "If you want to buy something, line up. If anyone wants to cause trouble, ask the gun in my hand."
The old lady was trembling with fear. She never dreamed that such a young girl would have a gun.
Without any obstacles, Jiang Wenxi quickly entered the store. There were not many people in the store, and the number of people entering was limited each time.
"What's going on?"
"The warehouse was robbed, two brothers died, and there's a food shortage. The store has implemented a purchase limit of one kilogram per person."
Jiang Wenxi's eyes instantly turned cold: "Who did it?"
They had just returned for a short time when this happened.
"Su Qinlong has already gone after him."
Jiang Wenxi felt that she could stay at the base for a while longer. She had come here to take a look, so what should she do now?
Zombies attacked the city last night, and the patrol team definitely didn't have time to deal with it, so someone took advantage of the opportunity and broke in.
It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision; it had probably been planned for a long time.
Jiang Wenxi frowned and glanced around the store. Most of the people who came to buy things were eyeing the food.
"Where's Chen Yu?"
"I went to report to the base early this morning, but he hasn't returned yet."
"I'll investigate this matter, you keep watch over the store."
She couldn't just sit back and watch, especially at this delicate moment. It was hard to tell whether the base did it on purpose before getting the results.
"You have to be careful. It feels like the other person is not an ordinary person." Xu Han reminded.
He was able to take down two skilled men silently and transport the goods away. The other side had at least 5 people.
Jiang Wenxi nodded and said, "I will. I'll go find Su Qinlong first."
Jiang Wenxi quickly left the store, and this time no one dared to stop her.
They first came to the warehouse and Jiang Wenxi took a quick look. Not only their house, but two other houses had been robbed.
Without exception, all that was looted was food.
There were quite a few people at the warehouse, all standing in the yard. Some warehouses had not been robbed, but they were still worried and came over to take a look.
The base sent seven or eight people to investigate, some were asking questions, and some were searching for clues nearby.
When Jiang Wenxi came over, she paid special attention to the tire tracks on the ground, and all of them were destroyed.
I first entered the warehouse and took a look around. There happened to be investigators inside and our eyes met.
The other party obviously didn't know Jiang Wenxi: "Are you the owner of this place?"
"Yes, the clerk told me it was stolen. I came to take a look. Any clues?"
A man in his thirties, a former criminal police officer: "I can only say it was a gang crime."
Today is different from before the apocalypse, and the motives for committing crimes are also different. Stealing things is normal, and as long as you are not caught, you will be fine.
There is no such thing as condemnation of conscience or morality. The people in the base are becoming more and more violent.
Jiang Wenxi didn't make things difficult for him. It was obvious that he had just come back from the battlefield and hadn't even had time to change his clothes.
Jiang Minxi went to the corner and took out two packets of instant noodles, sausages and the like, which were usually left for the guards to eat.
He packed a small bag and said, "Take these back."
The man looked at Jiang Wenxi for a while, then hesitated and took it: "Thank you."
They shouldn't have asked for it, but now that they don't have enough to eat, they can't care less.
"There's a stove next to it, you can use it."
Jiang Wenxi has already planned to abandon this warehouse and move to another location in the future.
"What are the backgrounds of the families next door?"
Jiang Wenxi simply started to inquire about it. She took the food back from the person and became much more enthusiastic when she spoke to the investigator, asking only simple questions.
There is nothing confidential, and it is explained in quite some detail.
Jiang Wenxi got the news she wanted and turned to leave.
"System, where is Su Qinlong now?"
"Host, this location."
Jiang Wenxi looked at the red mark, crossed the street and found Su Qinlong.
Lu Hui was the first to spot Jiang Wenxi. He was on guard and was stunned for a moment when he saw her. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Junior Sister, you're here."
Jiang Minxi······
Last time I had a meal at the villa, even the way they addressed me was changed.
Jiang Wenxi didn't bother to correct him: "Did you find anything?"
Lu Hui shook his head, his face full of fatigue. "The other party is very cunning and didn't leave many clues, but I found some traces that point to this gang."
I'm not completely sure at the moment. What if it's a frame-up or a trap?
Su Qinlong is investigating ahead and hasn't returned yet, so no conclusion can be drawn.
A cold light flashed in Jiang Wenxi's eyes: "What gang?"
"The Golden Snake Gang, their boss is a local tyrant, with about three to four hundred people under him."
Jiang Wenxi asked, "System, is there any stolen food here?"
"Host, we only detected the warehouse location. Is it hard to say if there is food inside?"
"Based on the food that was lost from the warehouse, there is not enough food here."
There are only two possibilities. The first is that they are participants, along with other people. The second is that they did not participate at all, and someone deliberately lured them here.
Soon someone came back and was stunned when he saw Jiang Wenxi. He said, "Ahua found the stolen food at the Flame Society."
"It's not ours, it's from the Zhang family next door."
His words reminded Jiang Wenxi that their food was marked. Not every bag had one, but there would be two or three in each batch.
"System, look for the mark."
"Host, appeared in two places."
Jiang Wenxi saw the location the system had located and glanced at Lu Hui: "Find someone to go with me."
Jiang Wenxi is not as familiar with the gangs in the base as Su Qinlong and the others.
The person walking with Jiang Wenxi was Ahua, who had found the food. Ahua followed Jiang Wenxi without saying a word.
After turning a few alleys, Jiang Wenxi pointed ahead and asked, "What gang is that over there?"
"Brotherhood of the Iron Fist."
"Do you know who they are closely connected to at the base?"
Ah Hua thought for a moment and said, "They used to be best friends with the Golden Snake Gang, but later, because of a woman, the two gangs fell out. These two brothers have a wide range of friends, from the official personnel of the base to the errand boys, they can speak to everyone."
Jiang Wenxi understood that this kind of person was the most difficult to deal with. He was very good at dealing with people and his actions were the most vicious.
The fact that the Flame Society has food means they must have participated. As for the Iron Fist Brotherhood, she wants to go and meet them in person.
It's still early, not a good time to take action.
"Let's go back first."
Jiang Wenxi returned to where Lu Hui was, and Su Qinlong also came back from investigation.
Jiang Wenxi asked, "What did you find over there?"
