"How can you speak so rudely at such a young age! What kind of upbringing did you receive?"
Han Rui put her hands on her hips and angrily berated the children.
Unexpectedly, instead of feeling ashamed, the children spat at Han Rui.
Then they brazenly rushed up and openly robbed us!
"Give it to me!"
Han Rui and Sun Tiantian were too embarrassed to lay a hand on the child, so they could only passively pull and tug at him.
"roll."
Just as the children were about to snatch Lu Sheng and the others' backpacks, a loud slap startled everyone.
Lu Sheng raised his hand expressionlessly and slapped the little boy who was leading the group twice.
Since the radiation spread, these children have been running rampant in the base because they have no aftereffects. This is the first time they have encountered such a fierce person.
He's just a kid; he was stunned by the slap.
The little boy who was leading the group glared fiercely at Lu Sheng, then suddenly pulled out a rusty knife from his waist and lunged at him menacingly.
The next second.
Lu Sheng lifted his long leg and kicked him several meters away.
"So poisonous at such a young age, keeping you around would only bring trouble."
She drew her knife and stepped forward, ready to finish off the little beast, but Sun Tiantian stopped her.
"Forget it, he's still just a child."
Sun Tiantian shook her head slightly, "We can't exactly use a knife on an eight or nine-year-old child, can we?"
Despite having struggled in the apocalypse for so long, the education she received over the past decade still prevented her from crossing moral boundaries.
Even teenagers are fine, but these kids in front of us are only eight or nine years old at the oldest and look only six or seven.
“Sweetie, human nature is inherently evil.” Lu Sheng rubbed his temples helplessly. “Even if you let him go today, he won’t be grateful to you.”
"Anyway, we'll be leaving soon and won't have any contact with him anymore, so let's just forget about it."
"Apologize right now!"
Han Rui crossed her arms and glared fiercely at the children.
"Sister, I'm sorry..."
The little boy was quite adaptable; seeing that he couldn't beat Lu Sheng, he immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake, and even ran over to give Sun Tiantian a gentle hug.
"See, she's still just a child." Sun Tiantian smiled sweetly at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng stared coldly at the children, "Get out of here."
Having survived two apocalypses, she no longer felt any pity for the vulnerable.
The elderly, children, and women—in the apocalypse, these groups often gain trust by appearing vulnerable. But once given the opportunity to gain absolute power, these people are more ruthless than anyone else.
These children are the best example.
After the children slunk away, Lu Sheng and the others followed the main road deeper into the Tengfei Base.
"Go to the office area of Tengfei Base first and find Lin Weicheng."
Lin Weicheng's unusual act of driving Lin Xiaoduo away might be related to the nuclear leak.
At the Tengfei Base headquarters, the entire office building was empty, resembling an abandoned, unfinished building.
Lu Sheng and her group searched from the first floor to the fifth floor, but didn't see a single person.
"Where is everyone?" Zhang Xiaojuan knocked on the wall a few times, puzzled. "Is anyone home?"
Only an empty echo answered him.
"There's no one here, how are we supposed to find the source of the radiation?" Sun Tiantian touched the table, her fingertips covered in a thick layer of dust.
"It feels like no one has used the table for at least a few days."
Xu Yi took out the detector. "Let's check the radiation level first and see if we can find the source of the radiation."
As soon as the machine was turned on, a beeping sound started going off incessantly.
Xu Yi held the testing device and walked around the lobby on the first floor before finally stopping next to Sun Tiantian.
"Holy crap, why does the number get bigger when it's next to Tian Tian?" Zhang Xiaojuan looked up in surprise.
"Huh?" Sun Tiantian subconsciously touched her forehead. "I don't feel uncomfortable?"
Lu Sheng's eyes turned cold, and he immediately pulled Sun Tiantian to his side, carefully examining her from head to toe.
"Is this yours?"
She held the metal keychain she had taken out of Sun Tiantian's pocket and asked seriously.
Xiao Yu glanced at it and shook her head, "How could that be? Little things like Tian Tian are all flashy and colorful, how could she be so plain?"
Lu Sheng attached the metal keychain to the detector, and sure enough, the numbers on the display immediately soared!
"Where did you get this?" Lu Sheng asked, frowning.
"I...I don't know...I've never seen this before." Sun Tiantian was completely confused, and rummaged through her pockets a couple more times. "We've been together the whole way, and I haven't met anyone else."
"No! Those kids from earlier!"
Lu Sheng and the others exchanged glances, all recalling their unpleasant experience from earlier.
