Chapter 39: Playing some tricks (Part 2)
Song Yuqing silently pulled up the mask woven from vines.
Lin Han narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his gaze away from Song Yuqing, and continued to scan the crowd.
Luckily, Lin Han didn't recognize her! Song Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Yuqing and Nanjiao quietly retreated to the back of the crowd, looking at the people queuing from afar.
Lin Han took out a large clock from the space and placed it at the door of the base supermarket.
"Twenty seconds counts until you return to the door with the supplies! First ten people in!"
As soon as Lin Han gave the order, the ten people at the front of the team rushed into the base supermarket, scrambling and bumping into each other. Twenty seconds had passed before they had just picked up a handful of food.
Nothing was gained, and ten zombies were wasted!
This is clearly a trap for the crystal core.
"Second group, get ready!" Lin Han's fingers tapped on the surface of the big clock.
Many people who were queuing dropped out.
"Twenty seconds. If we divide the work and cooperate instead of fighting over things, we can get a lot of things." The little boy who was tenth in the line pulled the person in front of him and expressed his thoughts.
When Lin Han announced "start", the first five people in the second group ran into the supermarket in an orderly manner. Some took food, some took water, some took medicine, and some took daily necessities. Then, they threw the things in their hands to the five people guarding the supermarket door.
I don’t know if it’s because of the division of labor, but the timing this time seems just right.
Song Yuqing looked at the little boy guarding the supermarket door. The little boy was different from others. He didn't stare at the situation in the supermarket, but stared at the front with unfocused eyes and a bloody snot flowing from his nose.
At the 20th second, the person guarding the supermarket door just caught the supplies.
Lin Han snorted coldly and announced the third round of shopping, and all those in line were invited to go together.
Song Yuqing still had some small tomatoes for her own use in her space. Without hesitation, she took out the tomatoes from the space, hid them in her palm, and walked towards the little boy.
At the moment when Song Yuqing and the little boy passed by, Song Yuqing stuffed the tomato into the boy's hand. The little boy looked down at the tomato in his hand, then looked at Song Yuqing's back as he walked away, feeling a little strange.
The aroma of tomatoes made the little boy drool. He bent down, used the person in front of him to block himself, and swallowed the tomato in one gulp.
Song and Qing walked around and returned to Nanjiao, who felt a little strange.
Song Yuqing raised his eyebrows and pointed at the little boy: "That little boy can control time. I just went to give him a blood transfusion."
Nanjiao expressed his doubts. Time ability was truly rare, perhaps one in ten thousand. How could it appear in that skinny little boy? Moreover, that little boy looked like a completely ordinary person, without any special abilities.
"Look carefully!"
As the third round began, the people in the queue rushed forward, but things did not turn out as Lin Han had imagined. People crowded and fought for the tickets, and in the end no one gained much.
In fact, although people were crowded and panicked in the first few seconds, as the seconds went by, they began to become orderly and calm. In the tenth second, everyone had more or less supplies in their hands, and the ten zombie crystal cores were not lost.
Lin Han frowned and tapped the big clock. He felt something was wrong. It seemed that the clock was slowing down, but he was not sure. The feeling was very strange, as if one second was stretched, or in other words, people's movements were accelerated?
"It's over!" Lin Han was furious.
"Look at the clock, it's not even twenty seconds yet!" someone shouted excitedly.
Everyone continued to carry supplies to the door, and the excited cheers drowned out Lin Han's attempts to stop them.
The little boy stood beside the pile of food in the base supermarket, his eyes fixed on the nothingness in front of him, slowing down time.
Twenty seconds turned into two minutes.
Finally, the little boy was exhausted and fell to the ground.
Nanjiao stared at the little boy intently, feeling worried for him. The moment the little boy fell to the ground, he could feel time suddenly speeding up, and at that moment, he felt a little dizzy.
"Countdown!! Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!"
In the final ten seconds, everyone rushed to the entrance of the base supermarket. Those who had come out with supplies earlier met them at the door.
This time, nearly half of the damaged supplies in the base supermarket were cleared out.
Amid the crowd's revelry, Song Yuqing and Nanjiao quietly slipped out of the base.
Next to the large clock, Lin Han closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed his temper. He had hoped to get something for nothing, but now, he had lost money.
"Mr. Lin, I did some calculations. It can't be said that I made a loss, but I actually made a small profit..." Ah Hu whispered in Lin Han's ear in a flattering manner, but was hit hard by Lin Han's hammer.
Ah Hu covered his head, grimacing in pain: "I, I'm going to collect the zombies!"
After Song Yuqing and Nanjiao left, Ah Hu organized several employees of the base supermarket to check out the residents who received the supplies one by one.
When it was almost dark, Nanjiao wiped his face clean and returned to Base No. 27 to find Lin Han to return the zombie body.
Lin Han took Nanjiao to an open space and pointed at the seventy zombie bodies piled on the ground: "That's all."
The corners of Nanjiao's mouth twitched slightly.
If he hadn't been at the base supermarket at the time, he would have believed it. Judging by the number of people rushing to buy supplies, there must be more than just these zombie cores.
"Okay." Nanjiao nodded in agreement weakly, turned around and grunted as he moved the zombies out.
Nanjiao glanced at Lin Han and the psychics around him, and no one had the intention of helping him move the zombies.
All right!
Nanjiao activated his supernatural power and shot out several vines from his palms. The vines weaved into a large net in the air, trapping the zombies on the ground.
"So this is the plant system." Lin Han said calmly, without any expression, "That's all."
Nanjiao sneered, pulled the big net that caught the zombies, and walked out of the base.
Last time, Song Yuqing had loaded the zombies into the space before moving them from Base 27 back to the God's Supermarket. This time, with Nanjiao's large net, Song Yuqing was happy to drag the net back to the God's Supermarket with Nanjiao.
"Can't I just give you space?"
"No."
Nanjiao was sweating profusely and looked speechlessly at Song Yuqing who was pretending to help drag the net.
The two of them walked slowly towards the God's Supermarket, one footstep deep and one shallow, leaving huge drag marks along the road.
That night, the little boy and three skinny psychics followed the dragging traces and walked towards the God's Supermarket.
"Are you sure that's the direction of God's Supermarket?" an older young man asked the little boy.
"uncertain."
The people walking at night fell into silence.
They risked their lives and ran out of Base No. 27 under the cover of night to look for Song Yuqing's God's Supermarket.
This idea was proposed by the little boy.
The little boy boldly guessed that the person who stuffed tomatoes into his hand at the supermarket entrance today was Song Yuqing, the kind older sister.
Instead of working yourself to death in Base No. 27 with no future, it’s better to go out and try your luck.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the little boy and his companions arrived at Bell Street in Chen Town. The traces of dragging had become blurred and difficult to identify, and they had lost their way.
In front, a girl with dreadlocks was chasing a zombie, sticking a piece of paper in front and behind the zombie.
The zombies were chased by the girl and ran towards the little boy, and there were more than one of them.
"Be on guard!"
They had a safe journey, but they didn't expect that danger was waiting for them here!
