Chapter 75: Looking for trouble
Today, there are not many survivors in the apartments and tube buildings. Including Liu Yu and his group, there are only about thirty people left.
The rest either left with the fake rescue team, or found a car to escape on their own, or were so desperate that they committed suicide to end their miserable lives.
Only those who still had some food in hand were surviving.
At this time, the two groups were confronting each other in the center of the small square. More than 20 people with yellow faces and obvious malnutrition blocked the front of the car and prevented it from leaving.
The middle-aged man with an unshaven beard who was in the lead stretched out his hands to block the car, and directed the rest of the people to deploy their trump cards and surround the vehicle.
"You've hurt us so badly, don't even think you can get away so easily!"
A group of men, women, young and old, filled with righteous indignation, surrounded Liu Yu and the others in the crowd and interrupted their attempts to get on the bus.
Liu Yu glanced at the group of people in front of him. There were a few familiar faces, and several of them were elderly people who were eliminated by the fake rescue team.
The rest are young people who want to wait for the second batch of rescue or are afraid to take risks with the "first batch of rescue", but although I have seen them, I have never dealt with them.
What's going on?
However, Li Guangzong, who was standing next to him, had talked with these people because of collecting zombie heads these days, and was hurt by them.
Didn’t expect that they would have the nerve to cause trouble today?
He stepped forward aggressively, chest puffed out, and glared at the middle-aged man: "Get out of the way! Don't think I'll be polite just because you old people are here. You're looking for trouble again!"
Who knew that after the man obeyed, he still refused to give in, but became even more arrogant.
"Don't even think about leaving if you don't leave some compensation today! It's you guys who kill zombies every day, causing all the zombies in this area to flock here. If any of us get eaten by zombies one day, it's all your fault! You have evil intentions!"
"ha??"
Because the car was the second one, Xu Shuyao was standing at the back and didn't have the chance to confront these people directly. But after hearing this, she couldn't help herself, shook off Xu Wei's hand, and rushed forward.
"We attracted the zombies? If I hadn't arrived early, I would have been fooled by you. The first day I came here, this small square was already swarming with zombies. It was clearly the strong human scent that attracted them. How dare you say we attracted them?"
"We're helping you clear the zombies for free, allowing you to expand your area of activity. It's already good enough that we're not charging you any money, yet you're asking us for compensation? Where's your dignity?"
As Xu Shuyao said this, her face darkened as she approached the middle-aged man and his group step by step, her eyes sharp and suspicious.
"I said, human scent is the easiest to attract zombies. You guys are much more numerous than us, and the smell you emit is even stronger. You should compensate us!"
The man was speechless and looked grim. He didn't know how to refute her and hesitated for a long time.
The aunt behind him, who was still plump despite being hungry for a few days, thought he was useless, so she pushed him away and went up alone, starting to speak in a sarcastic and harsh manner.
"Why are you saying that nonsense! I see you have enough food and clothing, and a little food between your teeth is enough for us to survive, how can you be so selfish! Hey! You young man behind you, you are a superpower, so you have the obligation to help and protect us old and weak!"
As she spoke, she pushed Xu Shuyao away and tried to pull Zhuang Moxing, but Zhuang Moxing nimbly dodged her grab by turning his body to the side.
He is not really cold-hearted, but he lacks the magnanimity to help the people of the world. He gave them opportunities, but they did not seize them.
Liu Yu leaned against the car with his arms, rushing to collect the watermelons in the space, and let these people make a fuss for the time being.
This is her last batch of fruits recently. Time is tight for the journey, so the planting plan needs to be put on hold.
Not to mention, the tense situation just happened to make it easier for her to harvest.
For some reason, this batch of watermelons was delayed in ripening. The watermelons that should have been harvested last night are only ready today. However, the extra large size of the watermelons made up for this little accident, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.
In fact, it was fortunate that this group of people ran into Liu Yu who was rushing to harvest the fruit. Otherwise, there would be no such a scene if they had confronted her directly. She was the best at expressing the word "cold and ruthless".
At the same time, Xu Yang grabbed Li Guangzong, whose veins on the back of his hand were bulging and he wanted to beat him up.
"Ma'am, if I remember correctly, I asked you a week ago if you wanted to join us in killing zombies for food, but you refused because you thought it was too dangerous."
"Exchanging food for no work, is this, blackmail?"
He didn't know when he picked up the machete and swung it over his shoulder. The blade was sharp and shiny, which was very intimidating.
When the group of people around him saw him draw his knife, they backed away in fear: "What are you doing? Are you going to kill someone?"
"You, don't do it! Killing is against the law!"
The young man in a blue sweatshirt with sunken eye sockets shouted and took a few steps back, pointing at Zhuang Moxing in the crowd.
"If you're a superpower, you should protect the civilians! Take care of the weak like us. You're a superpower who only cares about yourself. You're nothing but a shitty superpower."
"With great power comes great responsibility! Be a man!"
"That's right, that's right! So selfish!"
At that moment, more than twenty people started shouting at Zhuang Moxing and his companions at the same time. The restrained emotion in Zhuang Moxing's eyes deepened, and his right hand moved slightly.
At this time, Liu Yu finished harvesting the last big watermelon that required both hands to hold, and stood up and left the car body.
A hand wearing a leather glove rested on Zhuang Moxing's shoulder, and the spiritual energy that was about to be mobilized in Zhuang Moxing's body quietly returned to calm.
She was wrapped tightly from head to toe, with only her exposed eyebrows glancing at the young girl who was speaking, and she raised her eyebrows smartly.
“With great responsibility comes great power?”
"Who said that? Who are you going to talk to? I remember it was that guy."
Li Guangzong's face, which had been suppressed for a while, suddenly brightened up: "Spider-Man!"
