Chapter 169
After exchanging a glance with Liang Yingsheng, Xiao Yan nodded: "Would it be convenient for you to take us there?"
The woman hesitated. "I, I came out to find food. If I go back empty-handed..."
Xiao Yan understood and gave Du Lingfeng a wink.
Du Lingfeng fished in his backpack and pulled out a bag of sliced bread. "Ma'am, we're from the Jiangcheng Strategic Base. Go back and tell your companions we're here to rescue you."
The woman must have been bullied. She looked timid and there was undisguised fear in her eyes when she mentioned her companions.
She took the bread, swallowed her saliva, and cast a pitiful look at Xiao Yan again, "Commander, can you, can you go back with me? I just heard you guys making noises and I have been hiding and not daring to come out, which has wasted a lot of time. If I go back, I might get beaten."
She spoke with tears in her eyes and her voice was trembling.
Frowning slightly, Xiao Yan put away his pistol, nodded, and turned to look at Liang Yingsheng, "Together?"
"I'll just go with this beautiful lady first. Captain Xiao, why don't you stay here and wait for news?"
Hearing this, the woman immediately refused: "No! Those people will have evil intentions when they see you."
After she finished speaking, as if realizing something, she tugged at her collar, looking embarrassed. "I, I had to compromise to survive. The other three girls were just like me. There was even a little girl who had just turned eighteen. She couldn't bear the humiliation and jumped off the building to commit suicide a few days ago."
There is no order in the world anymore. Now, materials and fists represent everything.
Those heartless men can humiliate any woman who is unable to protect herself at will.
Liang Yingsheng guessed it the first time he saw this woman.
"There are so many of us, so what if we have bad intentions?"
Liang Yingsheng pointed at the guns in the hands of Du Lingfeng and others.
The woman still hesitated, "Sir, I..."
"Well, let her go with you."
Xiao Yan still has great confidence in Liang Yingsheng's skills.
The woman bit her lip and said, "Okay."
She and her companions lived on the 54th floor. The 54th and 55th floors were both the territories of Pulin Pharmaceutical. Large companies have good benefits, with plenty of bottled water and snacks, and even a small kitchen.
This group of people relies on these resources to make a living.
The woman's name is Zhao Ya. She was an employee of Pulin Pharmaceutical before the apocalypse. When the zombie virus broke out, the elevators and emergency passages were blocked by the crowd. In addition, zombies also appeared in the building, so Zhao Ya and several of her colleagues hid in the company.
Later, the remaining survivors of the building also gathered here. In order to survive, they divided into teams to find supplies. Some of them were attacked by zombies. There were originally nearly a hundred survivors, but later only forty or fifty were left.
There will always be unrest in group life, especially in such an environment. Several young and strong men formed a small group and began to try to dominate. Some of them resisted and were killed.
In the end, those people became more and more brutal. According to Zhao Ya's description, they did many heinous things.
Zhao Ya finished speaking and pointed to the glass door in front of her that was covered with paper. "This is it, Miss Liang. Otherwise, let the superiors come. These people..."
"I'll go meet him."
As he spoke, he knocked on the door, and soon, the glass door was pushed open from the inside.
"Zhao Ya, why did it take you so long to find supplies? Don't you want to rest tonight?"
The first thing that caught my eye was a tall and thin man who looked like a thin dog.
He had a toothpick in his mouth and was wearing a down jacket. When he saw Zhao Ya, his face was full of impatience.
Soon, his attention was drawn to Liang Yingsheng who was standing next to Zhao Ya.
"Oh, that's great, you actually brought back a little beauty?"
The man smiled frivolously: "How did you find it?"
Liang Yingsheng smiled sweetly: "Guess?"
"Interesting! Since you brought me new sisters, I'll let you off this time. If you find any supplies, bring them out quickly!"
Zhao Yase shrank back and took out the bag of bread.
Seeing this, the man instantly became angry. "Damn, you've been there for so long and only found a bag of bread. What about the lower floors? Didn't you go there?"
"Brother Jian, I, I really don't dare to go down. I'm afraid of encountering zombies."
"You..."
Just as he was about to use force, Liang Yingsheng grabbed his outstretched hand.
He bent his waist slightly with his arms, and with a beautiful shoulder throw, the man fell to the ground.
Zhao Ya was stunned. She stared at the man lying on the ground and subconsciously took two steps back.
At this time, she had already regarded Liang Yingsheng as a member of the strategic base.
There was quite a commotion here, and soon the remaining survivors came out, led by a bald man wearing a big gold chain.
He was short and fat, wearing an ankle-length down jacket with a floral sweater underneath.
"What's going on? Where did this beautiful girl come from?"
The beaten man wailed and climbed to his feet, "Boss, this woman who beat me must have hired help from that bitch Zhao Ya!"
The bald man spat out the cigarette butt from his mouth and looked at Zhao Ya fiercely: "I raised you for so long and told you to go out and find something to eat. What's wrong? You think you can save yourself by finding a woman?"
When the bald man appeared, Zhao Ya's face turned pale with fear. She shook her head frantically, "No, it's the rescue team."
As soon as the word "rescue team" came out, more than a dozen people's faces changed instantly.
The bald man spat. "Damn it, these hooligans must have set their sights on my territory and the rescue team. Zhao Ya, do you think we haven't served you well enough and want to change masters?"
"Really, it really is a rescue team."
Xiao Yan and others appeared at the right time, and Liang Yingsheng saw with his sharp eyes that the bald man put his hand into his coat pocket.
He strode forward, and the moment the man took something out of his pocket, a pistol was pressed against his forehead.
It’s Xiao Yan.
Liang Yingsheng was surprised. Is Xiao Yan so fast?
"Leave this to us. Miss Liang, please go check on the remaining survivors."
Xiao Yan's voice was as cold as usual, but there was a hint of warmth in his eyes as he looked at Liang Yingsheng.
"Oh, okay."
Liang Yingsheng nodded. This floor was a loft structure, and the group of people came down from upstairs.
There were many leftover instant noodle boxes placed by the stairs, some of which still had soup in them, but had long since frozen into ice cubes.
When I went up to the second floor, what caught my eye was the dirty quilts and clothes on the floor, and the cabinets in the corner were full of supplies looted by this group of people.
Liang Yingsheng vaguely heard low sobbing.
It came from the small compartment next to it.
When he walked over and took a look, Liang Yingsheng was instantly shocked.
Judging from the decoration and layout of this small compartment, it should be used as a lounge. There are two black leather sofas in it, which are placed side by side.
Two slightly blackened quilts were spread on the empty ground, and three disheveled women were curled up there, with ropes tied around their hands and numb expressions on their faces.
