"Brother Lei, dinner's ready."
Xu Jiao's call broke their silence.
"Come on, come on, come on, it's time to eat, we're starving."
This trip really exhausted Ye Lei; most of the day had passed just like that.
I also ran into Principal Ma and Zhou Binhui's affair. I only ate a bite of bread on the bus, and it was long gone!
Ye Lei glanced at the toppings and saw that there were quite a few kinds: fried sauce, sour soup, spicy, tomato and egg, and so on.
That huge bowl of hand-pulled noodles was brought out by Ye Lei. It must be really hard to cook for so many people!
"Xu Jiao, you've worked hard!"
Ye Lei looked at the table full of food and said.
"Thanks, Brother Lei. It's just this one hobby. Hurry up and cook the noodles, they won't taste good if they soak for too long!"
"Okay, everyone hurry up and eat your noodles. Is there anyone who doesn't like noodles?"
Ye Lei was worried that people who had gotten used to living on the coast would no longer like to eat noodles.
"It's great! Eating hand-pulled noodles, I can taste the flavor of mom's cooking!"
"So you're saying I'm your mom, haha..."
Seeing everyone enjoying the meal, Xu Jiao joked.
"Xu Jiao, I meant the taste. Do you really want to be my mother?"
"No way, it sounds so old."
"That settles it then, hehe..."
Ye Lei scooped up a spoonful of noodles with soybean paste one last time, and wow, there was so much minced meat in it!
He recalled the noodles with soybean paste he used to eat in the school cafeteria. It was all sauce, with hardly any minced meat or even a few pieces of tofu. Now he was really lucky to have such a delicious meal!
Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, a news broadcast on TV caught Ye Lei's attention.
He took his bowl, plopped down on the sofa, and ate while watching.
"Hello everyone."
According to the latest news from the disaster emergency command center, a giant rat has appeared in our city, and experts speculate that it may be a mutated zombie.
Currently, firefighters, police, hospital personnel, and other relevant personnel have arrived at the scene and launched a rat-catching operation.
However, due to the rats' enormous size and ability to burrow into concrete and then suddenly leap out from other places, they could not be successfully captured despite multiple attempts to hunt them down.
To date, it has not attacked or caused any harm to humans.
Military personnel are en route to the scene.
We are now appealing to survivors from all walks of life for help. A reward will be given to anyone who can successfully capture him.
Let's fight the zombies together and protect the peace of our city. We look forward to your arrival.
"Everyone come and see! It's a huge rat!"
Xia Yuhe arrived at some point and pointed at the TV screen, shouting loudly.
"Where? There are rats there."
Xu Jiao was startled; she thought a mouse had run into the kitchen.
"The TV didn't mention the kitchen."
"I'll come and take a look too!"
Everyone gathered around.
Ye Lei glanced at the live stream and predicted that the rat, excluding its tail, was about a meter long. Judging from the crystal core on its forehead, it was similar to that of a bloodthirsty bat.
Since it's already a level three zombie, it's not so easy to catch. Back then, he went through a lot of trouble to catch the Bloodthirsty Bat.
However, the fact that this giant rat had not attacked humans piqued his interest. Why was that?
"I want to go see this big rat, anyone want to come with me?"
These level-three zombies are currently the most powerful, and he doesn't want to let this opportunity slip by.
"I"
"I'll go!"
"Brother Lei, take me there!"
…………
Many women signed up.
"Bena, do you know how to use a sniper rifle?"
Ordinary methods probably won't work to deal with such a cunning rat.
"Sniper rifle?"
Beanna probably hasn't heard this word in a long time.
"Yes, do you know how to use it?"
“I learned about it when I was in police academy, but I didn’t have the chance to use it later. After all, we are ordinary police officers, not special police officers.”
"As long as you know how to use it, that's enough!"
Ye Lei took out the sniper rifle he had collected from the exhibition hall of the 6015 Research Institute from his spatial storage and handed it to Beanna.
"Wow, this is the latest M-85 heavy sniper rifle! Where did you get it?"
Bena held the sniper rifle and stroked it lovingly; the model number was clearly printed on it.
"Of course it's from our 6015 Research Institute! This heavy sniper rifle is extremely stable and highly accurate. It hasn't been officially issued to the military yet; it's on display in the exhibition hall, and then Brother Lei took it!"
The speaker was Tang Xiaoting, who knew the most about weapons.
"Xiaoting, we're out of bullets. Is it too late for you to manufacture some?"
"Of course not, I've already prepared it for you in advance. I knew you would definitely need it."
After speaking, Tang Xiaoting took out 30 bullets specifically designed for the M-85 heavy sniper rifle.
"Miss Tang, thank you. I used to love playing with sniper rifles when I was in school, but I never had the chance to. Now, Brother Lei, could you give it to me?"
Beanna looked at Ye Lei with an expectant gaze.
"Haven't I already given it to you?"
Ye Lei laughed and said that he would never use such a bulky thing anyway.
"Thank you, Brother Lei."
After finishing speaking, Beanna slung her sniper rifle over her shoulder and put away the bullets that Tang Xiaoting had handed her.
"Alright then, Xia Yuhe, you come with me too. We can try out your newly awakened ability, Mind Listening."
"Okay, okay, I want to go out and try it too!"
