226 The Tenth Store
◎ "Who do you think you are?"◎
Gaosheng City, Jinbo Road Main Road.
Three white vans were blocked in the middle of the road by the tide of zombies, unable to move forward or backward.
The lane was filled with zombies, like a swarm of ants before the rain, tightly surrounding the van in the middle.
In the car, Xue Qian threw away the business card for placing orders in her hand: "I can't write anything, I can't write anything at all."
Deputy Captain Liu Min held his head in despair: "Blacklisted! We are really blacklisted!!!"
Cui Fengshi grabbed his hair hard and yelled at Xue Qian: "Take care of your team members!"
In the early morning, Cui Fengshi and his team were able to escape with the help of the Gaoqi Army team.
At that time, they didn't think about anything. They ran back to the car on the side of the road and started to escape. On the way, they met Liu Min and his team who were left behind to guard the supplies last night.
The people in the Hope Base were divided into three teams last night. Two teams pried open the door from the front and back, and Liu Min led the third team to guard the three cars of supplies.
The team that went to Anxi Street left first, and even Xue Qian didn't notice it.
Cui Fengshi took away two captains, a deputy captain, and most of the team members, leaving Liu Min's team to look after the supplies in the car.
But late last night, Liu Min's team encountered a zombie night attack, and most of the people were killed and a car of supplies was lost.
The team that was responsible for prying open the back door of the errand shop last night has not returned to the team yet, and it is estimated that it is more dangerous than safe.
The two cars of Liu Min's team and the modified van met at the intersection, and both teams were in a mess.
Cui Fengshi, two captains and a deputy captain quickly changed cars and got into Liu Min's car. After only a few minutes of discussion, they decided to leave Gaosheng City as soon as possible and return to the base in Jinyao City.
Their exploration this time was a complete loss of face and a big defeat.
There was no better way at the moment. With just their few people, they really couldn't shake the errand shop.
Not only did the group of people have extremely high martial arts values, but the owner, although she looked young, acted decisively and didn't give them any clues to their plan.
But they didn't expect their luck to be so bad, and they drove into Jinbo Road in a panic.
The density of zombies in this area is extremely high. Even in the daytime, there are many wandering soul puppets on the streets.
They were careful along the way and tried to avoid the sections with many zombies, but the car was still blocked by the zombies.
Cui Fengshi began to command the driver to rush directly over. The zombies around them were like ants, densely surrounding them and crashing into a layer. There were countless walls of rotten bones behind them.
They were wrapped tighter and tighter, and later the car had difficulty moving. After
being trapped for about fifteen minutes, cracks appeared on the window of the rear door of Cui Fengshi's van, and the zombies outside the window were still banging on the door.
Xue Qian was so scared that she took out the business card of the errand shop and tried to place an order tremblingly.
At first, she couldn't write. She thought it was a problem with the pen, so she asked Liu Min to change it, but she still couldn't write.
After changing three pens in a row, she still couldn't write. Xue Qian was so angry that she scribbled on the cushion, but the pen ran out of ink. Only then did she remember what the owner said yesterday afternoon.
She said they were blocked and the business card was useless.
At that time, Xue Qian didn't really believe that Lu Yao had blocked them all. It was only then that she realized it. Fear and despair were like lichens growing in the damp and dark corners of the wall, crawling up the skin bit by bit and seeping into the bone marrow.
An Xia and Xie Yu sat in the back row, hugging themselves tightly with their arms, their rationality on the verge of collapse.
Xie Yu whispered, "Actually, the first time we came to Gaosheng City, if we hadn't met Lu Yao and Tina in Wanxin City, we would have definitely become food for the spider zombies. These days, we kept calling errand runners in order to inspect the strength of the errand shop and to take advantage of the event benefits. They are really too strong. The zombies are like paper tigers in front of them and are vulnerable. I thought we were as strong as them. As long as we have business cards, we can drive those monster-like errand runners at any time. It turns out that the right to use business cards can be reclaimed. Hahahaha, we were blocked."
Liu Min couldn't help crying, feeling scared and aggrieved: "Knowing how powerful they are, why do you still want to control them?"
She did nothing but followed the team on the mission. Because of the leader's wrong decision and arrogance, they are all going to die now.
The car window was broken, and several skinny hands stretched in.
The flesh on their hands was like steamed and rotten, and the scratches from the glass exposed the skin and flesh, and the stench of decay filled their faces.
Cui Fengshi thought back to his brief glory in his life, and had to admit that his most serious mistake was to underestimate the young female shop owner the day before.
How could a woman, so young, lead so many highly skilled and extremely loyal errand runners?
The woman was also short-sighted. She had such a powerful army, but she opened a ridiculous errand shop in such a deserted residential area.
If he could lead those talented people, let alone a mere Hope Base, even if he could completely drive out the zombies, rebuilding the human safety zone would be just around the corner.
Cui Fengshi thought a lot. Before the zombie virus broke out, he was just a bank lobby manager.
He spent all day trying to please customers and improve his performance. He was so overwhelmed by life that he had no backbone or leisure.
Ironically, his opportunity came from the chaotic world. When the zombie virus broke out, he first entered the Hope Base and then entered the management level.
The previous base commander died less than a month after taking office. He thought this was his chance to realize his ambitions.
But he has been in office for less than two months and is now going to die.
Like the previous base commander, he was buried in the mouths of those dirty and ugly zombies.
The car body could not withstand the violent impact of the zombie tide, and even the car door was about to fall apart.
The zombies rushed forward and tore the living people in the car.
The screams were heard from far away.
In the alley across the street from Jinbo Road, Li Zui and five team members watched from a distance.
Chu Li, the only girl in the team, frowned tightly. She felt like
she could see the screen just by hearing the screams: "It's too tragic. It's a pity that they didn't know to ask for help from the errand shop, maybe there would be a turnaround." Li Zui looked down at her and shook his head slowly: "Those cars look familiar. They were parked near Guanyin Road two days ago. Yesterday afternoon I saw them calling for errands, and they even used business cards to go to the store to exchange supplies several times. Something is wrong. Maybe they don't want to call for errands, but they can't."
Li Zui's team came from the Dawn Base in Green Ant City. They learned about the existence of the errand shop more than a week ago and returned to the base once during the trip.
This is the second time they have come to Gaosheng City to explore. They have been in the urban area for several days now and have a certain understanding of Gaosheng City and the errand shop.
Team member: "Why didn't you call? Is there something wrong with the errand runner?"
Chu Li raised his eyebrows: "No way? Those errand runners are as strong as Superman, what can go wrong?"
Li Zui couldn't figure it out.
They had planned to go back to Green Ant City today to report the situation in Gaosheng City, but it seems that they can't leave again, so they have to go back to the errand shop to investigate.

Guanyin Road, errand shop.
Shi Yan and several of his friends had breakfast at the Furry Shop and wandered around the underwater amusement park, having a lot of fun.
Xie Xiuliang was still thinking about the video of the zombie tide he saw in the morning. He couldn't wait to go to other stores and first dragged everyone to the errand shop.
The decoration design of the errand shop was actually ordinary among the many stores in the shopping street. The most valuable thing in the store was the wish network system covering the sky above Gaosheng City and the errand runners in the store.
When Shi Yan's friends walked in, they saw a long line from inside the store to outside the store, and they were all surprised.
They could see how desolate the main street of the shopping street was more clearly during the day. Except for the store clerks and deliverymen, there was no one around the street.
But as soon as they stepped into the store, the store was almost full of customers, which was completely different from the desolation of the main street.
Xie Jiaran leaned on the door and looked out. Even though he had gradually accepted the strangeness of the shopping street, he still felt strange: "Brother, brother! The main street has changed!"
Xie Xiuliang also leaned on the door, staring at Guanyin Road with curious eyes.
This street is also dilapidated, but it is different from the desolation of the shopping street.
The road is wide, the buildings are tall, and traces of a modern prosperous city can be seen everywhere, but the storefronts across the street are wide open, the glass in the display area is smashed, and the shelves are empty. There is not a trace of normal business atmosphere.
He has not seen any zombies around the street yet, but there are fragments of rotten bones on the roadside, attracting green-headed flies and scavenging birds to linger.
Xie Xiuliang felt as if he had a sudden inspiration, and countless images flashed through his mind. The feeling that had been bothering him in recent months seemed to have dissipated a lot.
When several people entered the store, Lu Yao handed the task of exchanging supplies to Ding Qing, and walked out from behind the counter to receive them.
The residents of Gaosheng City did not know the true details of the errand shop, and Lu Yao did not want to expose it to people other than store employees for the time being, and did not want to expose the secrets from the delay, so she needed to pay attention at all times, and she also wanted to implement the joining of several new members.
Zheng Zhuo asked: "Isn't it a small errand shop? Why are there so many people in the shop?" Lu
Yao: "It's a Mid-Autumn Festival event, to reward regular customers. These customers are here to redeem the event benefits."
Xie Xiuliang became curious when he heard it: "This world..."
He lowered his voice and approached Lu Yao: "... there is also Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Lu Yao: "Yes."
Lu Yanlin: "Every world has it?"
Lu Yao: "That's not necessarily the case. The probability is about 50-50."
Xie Jiaran: "The people in this world look similar to us. The impact is not as great as the furry shop on the seabed. I'm going to go to the furry shop later."
Xie Xiuliang shook his head: "Didn't you see the intranet? Street dynamics, right? This is probably a safe zone in the movies, with no zombies to be seen. Imagine if our downtown commercial plaza suddenly became like this street, wouldn't it be scary?"
Xie Jiaran frowned: "Brother, don't say that."
Xie Xiuliang: "It's just an analogy. I really think this is a good place now. Lu Yao, if I become a member, can I stay in the hot spring hotel for a long time?"
Lu Yao thought that they were finally talking about the topic, but his face was calm: "How long do you want to stay?"
Xie Xiuliang: "I don't know, at least half a month."
Lu Yao smiled gently: "Of course no problem."
Xie Xiuliang: "Then thank you for your help."

Hua'an Road, Water Company.
Zhao Ye stood in the shadow of the street corner with his head bowed, whispering to Mo Bao: "The zombies near this water plant are not right, they can't be killed all."
Mo Bao held the skateboard and looked disdainful: "You little demon have low cultivation, the spiritual energy in this world is thin, and you can't even kill a small puppet. It's better to go back to deliver goods and stop running errands."
Zhao Ye bowed his head and pointed at his finger: "Master Demon is different, majestic and awe-inspiring. We will stay here and wait for your good news."
Gao Qijun team, Da Liu and Zhao Xiaopeng, residents of Guanyin community, and Tang Anqi team stood aside, listening to the conversation between the boy and the little boy, feeling that they were inexperienced and couldn't find the right time and topic to insert into their conversation.
It was really too second-year.
Just listening to them makes me tired of digging my toes.
The errand task of "taking back the water company" was ordered to the errand shop after the Gao Qijun team, the Guanyin Community team and the Tang Anqi team discussed it together.
The task requires to clean up the zombies around and inside the water company.
Lu Yao recently re-divided the business of the errand shop. The delivery of packages, escort missions of less than two people, and rescue missions of less than four people are considered ordinary errands, and the charges are still based on the original standards.
Escort missions of three or more people, rescue missions of more than four people, and the cleaning of zombies are all high-level missions. The charging standards are based on the difficulty of the mission, and the errand fees are multiplied.
This mission is different from the ordinary errands. It is a high-level mission, and the number of zombies that need to be cleaned up is very large. The charging standard is ten times that of ordinary errands.
However, there are too many orders for errands today, and the Gaoqi Army team procrastinated, delaying a lot of time. After the order was placed, it was Zhao Ye who took the order.
The errand runners in the errand shop are all above average in strength. Even for the more difficult zombie cleaning tasks, Zhao Ye can actually complete them easily.
Zhao Ye took the order and went to Hua'an Road. He cleaned up the same area three times, but the number of zombies did not decrease.
He felt that the atmosphere near the water company was not right. It seemed that ordinary zombies were more durable than zombies elsewhere, and there were more of them and they moved faster.
Zhao Ye was worried about problems, so he asked for help directly through the system. As a result, he found Mobao, who was the one he was most incompatible with, among his many colleagues.
As soon as Mobao arrived, he beat Zhaoye mercilessly, then stepped on the skateboard, pulled out a black whip from his waist, and prepared to clean up the zombies.
The others were well aware of the strength of the errand runners, only the Gaoqi Army team was a little worried.
Wu Xian stood behind the crowd, still with an angry attitude: "This kid is also a runner? What can he do? I said that woman has a vicious mind-ah!!!"
"Snap-"
Wu Xian suddenly raised his hands to cover his face, screamed and stepped back a few steps, looking at the kid who was not as tall as his thigh in disbelief.
The kid just whipped him in the face with a whip, and his face was burning with pain, and there must be blood marks.
Mobao flicked the whip in his hand, frowned and glared at Wu Xian: "Who do you think you are? How dare you comment on my mother casually!"
Wu Xian stamped his feet in anger, turned his head to look at his teammates, and shouted: "Am I crazy or is he crazy?"
Tang Anqi is most annoyed by this kind of people.
They have no ability, but they like to make a lot of noise and can't see the situation clearly.
Tang Anqi couldn't help but interrupt: "Stop, stop yelling. You'll attract zombies and cause trouble for the errand boy."
Wu Xian turned around and pointed at Tang Anqi's head: "You——"
Li Xinrong stared blankly ahead, and suddenly pulled Wu Xian's arm hard: "Look! Look!!!"
Wu Xian raised his head impatiently: "What are you looking at?"
They hid behind an abandoned newsstand on the corner.
Mobo had already stepped on his skateboard and rushed into the zombie tide on the street, swinging his soft whip skillfully, as if he was holding a butcher knife.
Wherever he passed, rotten potatoes rolled down in rows, neater than dumplings.
