Chapter 341 Still Not Leaving
Every time he saw a survivor who looked like that man, the thorn in his heart would grow an inch deeper, and with every night of zombies howling, the thorn would grow many more branches.
Day and night, the torture continues.
Sang Zhengyi once had countless sleepless nights, walking around barefoot in the dark.
He was worried about his only sister, whose life or death was unknown.
Before his parents died, they hoped that he would take good care of his younger sister.
But he lost his sister on the first day of the apocalypse.
One is in the country and the other is overseas.
What was originally a matter of a few hours on a plane now seemed as far apart as life and death.
He couldn't sleep and was very anxious. The roars of zombies outside the door that could be heard at any time would make his tense nerves tremble violently.
Sang Zhengyi understood Lin very well at this moment.
He has a wife and children, and he can force himself to divert his attention and muster up the courage to protect his children.
But she is a woman, with no one to help her, and her daughter has disappeared. The longer she spends in the apocalypse, the greater the pressure in her heart.
In this case, the fact that the person is not crazy is already a sign of strong will.
He had seen too many people who, because they had no more concerns, simply jumped off tall buildings and ended their lives.
In their words, no one cares anyway, so instead of starving to death in fear, it is better to commit suicide and die with your sanity.
Although Qi Hua's parents are still alive and he is the only son in the family, his parents have their own brothers and sisters, and he also has cousins of the same age.
When the end of the world came, I saw with my own eyes that they were in their prime, being torn apart beyond recognition by zombies and dying miserably.
It's impossible to say it's not painful.
We were laughing and joking together just one second ago, planning to go out for karaoke and hotpot, and the next second he died in front of me.
This was a huge mental shock to Qi Hua, who had never experienced the death of a loved one!
A living person died right before my eyes...
Lin sobbed a few times and gradually subsided. She wiped her tears with her sleeves, calmed herself down, and looked across.
Sang Zhengyi's expression relaxed a little, but he still asked, "You know, our lives are harder than ordinary people's, so... we have to be more cautious. I hope you can understand."
Lin nodded. "I understand. I just wonder if I've done too many sins, and that's why God took my daughter away from me. If that's true, I want to start making amends now."
"I told you you're a good person. If I help you and make it easier for you to survive, will God forgive me some of your sins for saving so many people? That's my goal. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I can find any resources you want."
When people are at their wit's end, they tend to become delusional.
Lin couldn't hold back any longer.
She has nightmares every day, in which her daughter keeps crying and suffering...
Lin looked at Sang Zhengyi's eyes which were full of longing, the most sincere and selfless emotions. Her eyes, which were originally a little pale, became clear and free of distractions after being washed by tears.
That was a desperate attempt.
Sang Zhengyi looked at Xia Yan, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Xia Yan: "I'm not participating in your recruitment activities. I'm here just to join in the fun and help her prove that she does have a daughter and that she did post a missing person notice with me. If you think what Lin said is true and sincere, with her, it will be easy for you to find supplies."
It’s not too much to say a few words to help Lin.
Sang Zhengyi smiled, and after exchanging information with Qi Hua, he decided to recruit him into the team.
Boss Xia has just made it very clear.
Lin is now worried. She is still thinking about whether Boss Xia can find his daughter. With positive beliefs as support, she will not do anything bad.
Sang Zhengyi said, "Then let's talk about the distribution of supplies—"
Lin interrupted urgently, "I don't want supplies, I just want the crystal core!"
Qi Hua was puzzled: "Are you sure?"
Lin said, "Supplies are useless to me. As long as I have the crystal core to allow me to live here and have a meal, that's enough."
Only those who have hope for the future will desire material things.
If she doesn't get any information about her daughter for a long time, the flame in her heart will surely get smaller and smaller, and she will soon go to hell...
The two of them paused as they thought of this, and began to believe her words even more.
Sang Zhengyi coughed and said, "Since we've let you join our team, you'll be treated the same as everyone else. Our main focus will be on finding supplies. The crystal cores from killing zombies will be divided equally. Is this okay with you?"
As he said this, he glanced at Xia Yan.
As smart as he is, how could he not know why Boss Xia, who never gets involved in any private affairs, is still not leaving at this moment.
Having said that, you are still supporting Lin now!
What exactly is it about Lin that attracts Boss Xia?
Sang Zhengyi looked at Lin again calmly. Don't judge a book by its cover. Everyone has their own strengths!
Lin asked hesitantly, "So, can each person get one crystal core every day?"
Sang Zhengyi laughed, "You underestimate us a bit. We can at least get five crystal cores each!"
Lin's face lit up with joy, "That's fine! That's enough!"
Sang Zhengyi said, "Do you have any other questions? We're planning to go to the park this afternoon, but we're worried we won't have enough time to go there and back."
Lin shook her head and returned to her original expressionless face.
As if she had thought of something, she suddenly said, "If I don't need the supplies that were allocated to me, can I exchange them for crystal cores?"
Sang Zhengyi was about to speak when Xia Yan interrupted him softly:
"Lin, you have to keep some supplies on hand. What if your daughter comes to see you in the future and you have no food? Won't she starve?"
Lin suddenly turned her head to look at her, and a thin layer of mist gradually appeared in her eyes.
"...Boss Xia, I'll listen to you."
"Captain Sang, whatever you divide, I want."
Originally, it was supposed to be divided equally. As long as Sang Zhengyi accepted her, it was naturally impossible for him to keep the share that should have been given to her for himself.
At this time, Qi Hua smiled and asked, "Auntie Lin, don't look at what the captain said just now. Everyone in our team has always received exactly what they deserve. You will understand if you stay for a few days. Our team is harmonious and there is not much talk.
There is just one thing: once you join the team, you must prioritize our team in everything you do."
Lin: "That's fine, I understand."
Sang Zhengyi smiled and stood up, extending his hand again. "You're welcome to join us, Lin. We're going to the park this afternoon, and I hope you'll come with us."
Lin: "I'll go. I know a park not that far away that also has a variety of fruit trees. If I leave now, I'll be back around six."
Upon hearing this, Sang Zhengyi immediately took out a map from his pocket, handed her a pen, and asked her to mark it out.
He looked at the distance between the red circle and the base, and it was indeed closer.
"Xiao Qi, change the destination and go here this afternoon!"
