After Secretary Li left, Qin Su stood at the window, staring blankly at the entrance of the resort.
People are indeed fickle, aren't they!
They made a good promise at the time, but in the end, their greed was fostered, and they even turned around and threatened me.
In this world, you really can't trust people's hearts!
Huo Sijin entered the room and saw the coldness in her eyes, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Su Su, everyone is different, and not everyone will become greedy and evil."
"Really? But I've seen many people who will do anything to survive. And many others, in order to live better in the apocalypse, exploit the value of others to gain self-satisfaction."
In the apocalypse, kindness is like a knife to your throat, capable of killing you at any moment, right?
At this moment, Qin Su's eyes were bloodshot, and the moment she was pushed off the city wall appeared before her eyes again.
So many people had received her help, yet they watched her being murdered and torn apart by zombies, and not a single one came to her rescue. Not even a single one spoke up to stop her!
Having been given a second chance at life, the resort brought her warmth, so much so that she still harbored illusions and held onto hope for kindness.
Haha, in the end, she made a stupid mistake!
"Susu, no, that's not how it is. No matter what, there are good and bad people. Although there is no rule of law in the apocalypse and many people have revealed their true nature, most people can still maintain their original intentions when they can survive."
Everyone here is educated; it's impossible for everyone to become selfish and cruel.
While I can't guarantee what the future holds, at least for now, everyone at our resort is kind.
Huo Sijin felt sorry for Qin Su. He didn't know why Qin Su had such pessimistic thoughts, but he knew that his Su Su must have gone through a lot of bad things to be like this.
Qin Su raised her eyes, her dark pupils fixed on Huo Sijin.
"And what about you? Can you guarantee you'll never betray me?"
She clutched a poison tightly in her hand. If Huo Sijin hesitated even for a moment, she would kill him instantly.
Absolutely not!
Huo Sijin smiled, took the pill from her hand, and put it in her mouth.
Qin Su's pupils widened as she watched him quickly swallow the poison.
The poison took effect very quickly; he collapsed to the ground as soon as he swallowed it.
He smiled and looked at Qin Su: "Will this proof convince Su Su?"
Qin Su hurriedly took out the antidote for him, but he refused to take it.
"Susu, do you believe me now?"
Qin Su's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"I believe you, please take the antidote!"
This man is truly fearless, using such a method to prove himself—is he insane?
She frantically shoved the antidote into his mouth, but it wasn't for this particular poison. She had made the poison herself, and hadn't yet prepared an antidote.
Fortunately, Huo Sijin's complexion improved after taking the antidote.
"Are you crazy? Knowing it's poison, you still swallowed it without hesitation. Aren't you afraid of really dying?"
Huo Sijin smiled: "If dying can prove my sincerity, then it's worth it."
Qin Su bit her lip, her eyes involuntarily welling up with tears.
"madman!"
She cursed under her breath, but still sped up her work to prepare the antidote.
"I don't care about anything as long as it makes Su Su feel better."
Huo Sijin looked at the raging little woman with a smile, feeling slightly relieved.
Thump thump thump...
Li Tang knocked on the door: "Miss, the people from the municipal government are kneeling outside apologizing!"
They originally didn't want to tell the young lady, but they thought she was a bunch of ungrateful bastards who would rather kneel than kneel.
But they knelt for several hours, making it difficult for them to even leave the house.
Qin Su looked outside and saw that the area outside the resort was densely packed with people.
"They said we shouldn't have doubted Miss, we shouldn't have failed to stop or report those people when they started causing trouble, and we shouldn't have forgotten how good Miss had been to them..."
Li Tang scoffed. These people only now remembered how good the young lady was to them. It was too late.
It's just that the young lady has a good temper; if it were him, he would have kicked them all out long ago.
"Tell Secretary Li to proceed according to Wancheng's city regulations!"
Qin Su spoke calmly. Although her pessimistic mood had lessened considerably, she no longer wanted to waste any more energy on those people.
Next, those who can abide by the city rules will stay, and those who cannot will be expelled!
"Okay, I'll go tell them right away."
Li Tang quickly conveyed Qin Su's words, and Secretary Li made the biggest decision since the mayor's death without further hesitation.
This time, Wancheng's population was reduced by half.
Those who were expelled finally appreciated the good things about Wancheng; at least there they had food to eat and clothes to wear. But once they left Wancheng, they realized that the outside world was a living hell.
There was no food, no water, and even their bodies were coveted delicacies by others.
They wanted to return to Wancheng, but it was too late. They had been expelled from Wancheng and could never go back.
Qin Su ignored the survivors. As long as everything was in accordance with the city rules, she didn't mind taking care of them, considering it as leaving seeds of life for Blue Star. But if they caused trouble, she would kill or drive them away.
Currently, the most important thing is to solve the problem of the mutated beetle.
In the field, after being sprayed by the musket, there were no more insect eggs. No insect eggs were found elsewhere either, as if all the problems had been solved.
But in Qin Su's heart, she always felt that it wasn't over yet.
On this day, Fifth Uncle, who was still digging in the underground city, hurriedly came looking for him.
"Susu, I encountered this in the dungeon. It looks like a living organism, but I've never seen one before. Does it resemble the mutated insect you mentioned?"
Fifth Uncle showed Qin Su the photos he had taken. In the photos, the eggs were piled up as high as a human body, taking up an entire passage.
And looking at these eggs, they are clearly about to hatch.
If so many eggs hatch, the entire Wancheng area will probably be covered by insects.
"Fifth Uncle, take me to see this quickly."
"Huo Sijin, take more brothers with you, and have them bring muskets! No, bring explosives!"
...
In the underground city, the brothers who had been digging for many days turned pale with fright at the constantly throbbing eggs in front of them.
Some of the bolder ones cautiously stepped forward, wanting to get a better look.
Suddenly, a poisonous stinger shot out from the egg.
Ahhh...
He covered his eyes and rolled on the ground, but stopped moving after only a few seconds.
When Qin Su arrived, the man had already stopped breathing. His body was stiff, and his skin had turned bluish-gray.
After the examination, Qin Su's expression became increasingly solemn.
"The toxins in his body are constantly expanding, and they will explode when they reach their limit. In order to prevent more people from being infected, he must be cremated immediately!"
