Chapter 38: Partner Knocks on the Door (2)
When he knocked on the door empty-handed to tell Lu Weiyi that he lived next door, Lu Weiyi was completely stunned. He wanted to refute that the house next door was indeed empty, especially since he used a reason that could not be refused, so that he could deal with it as soon as possible after the change.
It seems I have to be more careful next time.
Lu Weiyi thought about it and at the same time felt anxious as to why Zhuang Mingxu hadn't arrived yet. If he was here, he wouldn't have to think so much. Zhuang Mingxu could handle whatever happened.
There was no rope at home, so Li Zhuang tied Antonio's hands with a bed sheet, wrapped him in two more layers to make him look like a silkworm cocoon, and placed him in a room on the first floor.
It took Lu Weiyi and Dean two trips to bring all the things in the car back. On the way, they briefly explained the situation to him.
As soon as he entered the house, Lu Weiyi piled his things randomly in the living room and collapsed on the sofa.
Dean looked at Antonio and said disappointedly, "He's been sleeping all day."
"It should be fine." Lu Weiyi didn't know how to comfort others. After this dry sentence, he didn't know what to say. Seeing that it was time to eat, Lu Weiyi prepared to get something to eat, but before he could take out the food prepared in the space, he froze for a moment.
Lu Weiyi would not compromise on food if he could. He usually ate the food stored in the space in advance together with bread and instant noodles. But taking out a hot meal at this time would definitely arouse suspicion.
He got up and went upstairs to get a set of gas tanks. Half of the pot has been used, but the good thing is that it can be directly connected to a gas stove and used directly, avoiding him from having to study how to connect it and use it. Once the two pots are placed, it becomes a set of kitchen utensils. Lu Weiyi gave himself a thumbs up for his clever behavior of taking whatever he saw.
He held the gas tank in one hand and the stove in the other, and called for Dean downstairs for help.
"What is this?" Dean took the gas stove he handed over, carefully adjusted the connected pipes, and went downstairs.
“Gas, you can cook.”
Dean's eyes lit up and said, "A gas of this size can last for a long time. The gas tank used for BBQ is very small and will run out after a few uses."
"It should... be ok." Just replace it with a new can when it's used up. There are nearly thirty cans in Lu Weiyi's space. However, they are consumables after all, so it would be more practical to find a few generators.
The generator burns oil.
Still need to find oil.
Oh, what a hassle.
Where on earth is Zhuang Mingxu?
Lu Weiyi's mind was wandering. He put in a few packets of instant noodles and threw in some ham and braised eggs.
"We have to wait a while." Seeing Dean's eager eyes, Lu Weiyi handed him a bottle of water and said, "Drink something first."
When Dean heard that there was still food for him, he pursed his lips, thought for a moment before taking it and said solemnly: "When David wakes up, we will return it to you together." After saying that, he seemed to feel that it was not sincere enough, so he quickly added, "Even if David can't wake up, I will return it to you later."
"Yeah," Lu Weiyi nodded, "You can use anything at home. If you run out of stuff, you can look for it again."
Dean had only eaten a pack of biscuits and hadn't drunk a sip of water in the past two days. He didn't care about his face at this time. He gulped down most of the bottle of water, then trotted inside and fed the rest to Antonio.
After a while, the instant noodles gave off an enticing aroma. Lu Weiyi waited for him to eat a large bowl before asking about their situation.
According to Dean, after they separated that day, the two went straight back to the hotel. Antonio felt that the world would not be peaceful in the future, so after careful consideration, he decided to store more supplies. However, it would not be safe to store supplies in the hotel without anyone. The two decided that Dean would stay in the hotel with a gun to guard the supplies, while Antonio would go out to collect supplies nearby, and they would go there together when the government established a safe zone.
After a few days, the number of zombies gradually increased. Someone, in a panic, lured the zombies from a hospital near the hotel here. Antonio, who had just returned, happened to see them and was accidentally injured.
"They wanted to kill David because he was injured. I disagreed, so they drove us out and seized our supplies." Dean said this with a face full of resentment, and burst into tears again after a while. "Then David became unconscious, and he asked me to come find you..."
Antonio thought that he could find someone in a small city who could speak English and communicate with Dean. As he had only met him twice, he probably couldn't bear the idea of entrusting his child to the care of him.
