Chapter 30 Shopping Mall Supplies
Lu Ming said hello to Lin Cong and indicated that he would go back first.
After leaving the training ground, she was still confused about what to do when she suddenly heard someone calling her.
She turned around and saw that it was Tang Yanwen. About twenty of them were standing not far away, chatting in groups of three or four. Many of them looked at her with curiosity.
She walked over to him, facing a row of stares, and asked him, "What are you doing here?"
He chuckled, "Waiting for the captain."
"Do you have a mission?"
"Yeah, let's go collect supplies and search for survivors."
"So where are you going this time?"
"Let's go to a nearby commercial plaza. A team moved half of the goods yesterday. We'll move the rest today."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up. A shopping mall? What a great place! They have everything they need to wear. There aren't many of them in the space, just enough for one person to change into another set of clothes.
"Um, I wonder if I can go with you?" she asked cautiously.
Unexpectedly, Tang Yanwen was very excited. "You want to help? That's great. I praised you yesterday, but they didn't believe it."
He pointed with his finger, and those he pointed at all looked embarrassed and waved their hands three times in a row, "No, no, he's talking nonsense."
Lu Ming smiled and waved his hands, "It's okay, he must be exaggerating. I'm not that powerful."
As they were talking and laughing, Lu Shaoyang came out. When he heard that Lu Ming wanted to go with them, he nodded and agreed without much hesitation.
We're short-staffed right now, and during this special period, we'd really like to have someone come to help, especially someone with special abilities. Although Lu Ming said she was a speed type, based on what she had just said, it seemed like more than that.
Maybe it's a dual system? He thought secretly.
Three large military trucks without green canopies roared out of the base.
Lu Ming sat next to Lu Shaoyang. The familiar people were all in the car, so they could protect her if there was any danger.
Although people who knew her felt that she didn't need protection, others thought that she was a delicate girl after all, and it would be difficult to explain if something happened to her.
A few people were chatting on the road to pass the time, and suddenly they started talking about their families.
Since they were urgently summoned, they have lost contact with their families, and do not know whether they are alive or dead, whether they are in the base, or whether they are trapped somewhere else, and are anxiously waiting for rescue.
No one dares to think too deeply, fearing that reality will be the worst possible outcome, which will make people lose the courage to continue living.
The atmosphere in the truck was a little stagnant for a moment.
Lu Ming looked at their eyes that were filled with worry. Although he could not understand their feelings, he could understand the entanglement and pain of them worrying about their loved ones, but having to hide their anxiety because of their own responsibilities.
Family members connected by blood?
She had never had a family, so what was it like?
In this new technological era, offspring are not conceived by a married couple. Instead, reproductive cells are extracted directly from adults, cultivated into embryos, and then placed in incubators. During fetal development, DNA is constantly modified to ensure that every citizen born has high-quality genes. Brain development is also artificially stimulated, allowing them to absorb knowledge and memories directly into their brains until they are released from the incubator at the age of fifteen.
Only then can it be called "birth".
After birth, everyone needs to undergo special learning and training in order to better control their bodies and adapt to society.
Once the learning is completed, jobs will be assigned according to the most suitable occupation in the genetic sequence.
Lu Ming's job doesn't require her to interact with people much, so after work, apart from occasionally having meals with colleagues, she stays at home studying various novels and movies, so she has no chance to experience such deep feelings.
She suddenly remembered that Gu Chao and the others had never talked about their families. She wondered what was happening to their families...
The shaking vehicle arrived at the square in silence, and the driver stopped directly in front of the gate of the nearest shopping mall.
Everyone cheered up and got out of the car together.
After entering the door, everyone consciously divided into three teams and headed to different floors.
There were some scattered zombies in the mall, and they were quickly taken care of by the person in the front with a dagger. Now, in order to save ammunition, they could not shoot unless it was absolutely necessary.
Lu Shaoyang's team's target is the second underground floor, where there is a large chain supermarket.
Lu Ming helped to chop down a few zombies. Seeing that there was no danger anymore, he walked around the soldiers who were moving things, found Lu Shaoyang, and said that he wanted to go to the clothing area upstairs to take a look.
Except for the floor of the mission target, the other floors of the base were not cleared because they could not take away those non-essential supplies.
Lu Shaoyang thought about it and felt that there were not many zombies in this shopping mall, so he felt that Lu Ming should be able to handle it. He gave her a walkie-talkie and asked her to remember the lunch time and go early and come back early.
Lu Ming nodded heavily, promising not to take any risks, and then slipped away quietly.
She first came to the underground level, where there was a snack street, baby products, and some miscellaneous shops with a wide variety of items.
However, I went to Luming mainly for the KFC and McDonald's there.
…Who would have thought that a citizen from a new civilization in the future would crave junk food the most?!
Baby products, wine, sportswear, household items, kitchen and bathroom supplies, specialty stores, except for a portion of what is on the shelves, the rest are taken away with a wave of the hand.
She even bought things from the shops in the snack street, as long as they were semi-finished products that were still in good condition.
When I arrived at KFC and looked into the kitchen, the freezers were still working! Amazing!
As expected, she was right. This large shopping mall and the residential area over there belong to the same power supply area, so the mall's electricity consumption is normal.
The ingredients, machines, oil, seasoning packets, even the Coke machine and paper cups in the store were all emptied out with a wave of his hand. He also emptied M's house and then headed upstairs.
Since she wasn't sure if the mall's surveillance cameras were still working, she would break each one she saw with stones or tiles to avoid being caught on camera doing something strange while emptying the mall.
The fourth floor is a very practical lingerie store and fur winter clothes!
Although the weather is normal now, drastic weather changes will soon become another challenge to human survival, and these supplies will be in short supply.
It’s still the same policy. Except for the ones hanging outside, all the ones that are not unpacked and in the warehouse will be taken away.
If they weren't afraid that someone would suddenly come up, they probably wouldn't have left anything behind.
Dozens of underwear, pajamas, and home wear stores, as well as two large fur, wool, and cashmere specialty stores, were all taken away!
On the fifth floor, there are dozens of men's clothing stores, several outdoor goods stores, and small appliance stores. Clear them out!
On the top floor, there are gold jewelry, luxury bags, watches and accessories, and even an eyewear store.
She returned to the fourth floor and walked through the connecting passage to the adjacent shopping mall.
This building has not been thoroughly cleaned, and there are still dozens of zombies scattered on each floor.
Lu Ming killed and collected at the same time, and encountered two first-level mutant zombies on the way, one with strength and the other with speed. It took some effort to get rid of them and harvested two crystals.
There is no department store or supermarket in this mall, but she found an unexpected surprise on the third floor below ground!
