On the only way back to Yancheng Base.

Two people were squatting in a thick bush on the side of the road.

"Boss, look! There's a fat sheep coming over there!" One of them, who looked to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, put down his binoculars and said to the person next to him with excitement.

Such a big incident happened at the cross-river bridge, which meant that these professional robbers were going to have big business. Because usually at this time, many people would come to inquire about the news, and then they could take the opportunity to make a profit. When there are too many people, the situation at the scene is easy to be chaotic, and it is also easier to take advantage of the situation.

But Chang Shisi always felt that he was different from other robbers because he was a robber with a life ideal. He made a very detailed plan for his career.

Seeing the people around him making noises, Chang Shisi, who was chewing bubble gum, sat on the ground, patted the head of the boy who had just spoken, and said, "Skinny little monkey, I have told you so many times, don't talk so loudly in my ear in the future, you are almost making my ears deaf, do you know that?"

"Boss..." The boy called Little Skinny Monkey stole a glance at Chang Shisi beside him. Under his vicious eyes, his originally excited tone dropped again, "Hey, Boss, I get it, do you think this volume is okay..."

It was the first time for the skinny little monkey to follow the boss to do something big, so he was a little excited.

"Okay." After Chang Shisi finished speaking, he didn't have time to deal with the people around him and went to check the equipment they usually used to rob.

Nails on the road, ok

Firecrackers to be used later, ok

Mask, ok

It seems that everything is ready, waiting for the little fat sheep that the skinny monkey mentioned to take the bait.

In fact, Chang Shisi hadn't crossed the river for several days, so he came to Yancheng Base to make a big move.

Because he accidentally made a mistake last time and robbed a car owned by the Yancheng base. Although his trip was not in vain, he was almost caught by the people in the base, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to cross the river to come here for the past few days.

"Little skinny monkey, remember this. When I give you a signal, light the firecrackers and throw them onto the road. Then don't worry about anything else. Just run to the other side and keep running to the river. Remember this?"

"Got it, Boss. I promise to complete the mission!" However, the skinny little monkey still didn't understand something. He asked, "What if I run away? Who will stay to cover you?"

"Don't worry about me. I can run faster than you. I'll be thankful if you can get away without holding me back." Chang Shisi took the binoculars from his hand and looked at where the fat sheep that the skinny monkey mentioned was.

But when he saw it, he was immediately dumbfounded: "Why are there three cars?"

The person next to him asked stupidly, "Boss, three cars are not good enough? I found them according to your requirements..."

Chang Shisi was in tears, he was almost pissed off by this little brother in front of him. He had told him that the team that drove such a car was a fat sheep, but he asked him to find him one, not three!!

He felt a little tired: "Forget it, forget it. They are coming, little skinny monkey, you should hide over there quickly. We'll see what happens when the time comes." Everything was already prepared, it would be a pity to just leave like this.

Chang Shisi usually robbed teams that had cars, because in the end times, teams that had the conditions to drive cars and consume gasoline had much more supplies than teams that walked. Moreover, people like this would not care too much if they found that some of their supplies had been taken away by others and they really couldn't catch up. If it were a team that didn't have much supplies, they would definitely chase him relentlessly.

Of course, even if they chased him relentlessly, it would be useless because most of these people would not be able to catch up with him.

But the question now is, among the three cars...how does he know which car these people put the food in? ? !

**

Ruan Ning and his friends had just turned around and driven back a short distance when they were suddenly forced to stop.

"Mr. Gu, what's going on over there?" a voice asked through the intercom.

The two cars behind saw the car in front suddenly stop, so they also stopped.

"I just heard a sound, it seems our tire is flat." Before Jiang Jingchao got out of the car to check what was wrong, he suddenly frowned and said, "Brother Gu, there are two people in the grass next to us. One in front and one in the back."

Generally, when this happens, the tire suddenly becomes flat, and there are no one waiting nearby, so they know the situation around them without getting out of the car.

It must be another robber.

Lin Yang was surprised: "Just two people?"

It was not strange to encounter robbers. They had encountered robbers at least a dozen times since they came to S City. The only thing they found strange was that there were only two people this time. It was the first time they saw a robber with so few people.

Although the strength of these robbers varies, they generally have one thing in common: they like to gather together in large numbers to increase the momentum of the team.

The one that came today is quite interesting.

…

the other side.

Chang Shisi squatted in the grass and waited for five minutes, but he didn't see anyone get off the car. He had clearly seen the car at the front of the team stop five minutes ago. This showed that his first step of the plan had worked. He could just wait for them to get off the car and then he could implement the second step of the plan. Why did the progress suddenly get stuck?

He thought of something and suddenly couldn't stay in one place any longer. Did his plan fail? It shouldn't be. Even if his plan was exposed, the people in this team shouldn't be so quiet and not give him any response.

Chang Shisi thought about it and decided to run away first. Originally, it was difficult for him to make a decision when three vehicles came at once. He didn't know which one to put the food on. In addition, the behavior of the team in front of him was too strange. What if there was a special superpower among them? If he came alone, it didn't matter, he could run away anyway. The key point was that he brought the skinny little monkey with him today.

When Chang Shisi was still in the base, he had heard about a kind of psychic ability that allowed them to know where someone was hiding without having to go and see for themselves. Robbers like them were most afraid of encountering this kind of thing. They were planning to strike unexpectedly, but the other party knew about it in advance.

Fortunately, Chang Shisi had only heard of this kind of supernatural power from others, and he had never seen it himself. It was said that this kind of supernatural power was rare in the whole country, and the probability of encountering it here was even lower.

But it's better to be safe than sorry, so he decided to leave this time. Next time he strikes, he will definitely only look for a team with only one car.

Chang Shisi was just about to call the skinny little monkey hiding in front to leave this place with him quickly, when he saw people getting out of the three cars and the door of one of the cars was not closed yet.

Seeing this, Chang Shisi hesitated again. Their car door was not closed, so it should be OK if he tried. Even if he failed, he could still run.

It seemed as if God wanted him to accomplish this big task today.

Whenever Chang Shisi robbed a team with a car, the worst thing was related to the car. If these people did not get out of the car or the car door was locked, he had no way to steal the things they left in the car and then run away. The only way was to smash the car, but smashing the car would make too much noise, and if these people found out in advance, he would not be able to rob anything.

Chang Shisi is a speed esper, and by chance, his esper level quickly broke through the third level. This is why he can always successfully escape even though the team with the car is not bad.

There are not many third-level psychics nowadays. It shouldn't be difficult for a psychic of Chang Shisi's level to join a team in any base.

However, Chang Shisi didn't like to join any base team at all, because in everyone's general perception, speed users don't have much potential, and their status is completely inferior to those with fire, lightning, wind and other powers. So no matter how high his ability level is, every time he joins a team, they think that the role he can play in the team as a speed user is just to be a pathfinder. Because he runs fast, every time he goes to a strange place, he is asked to explore the way first, and then run out to tell others if there is any danger inside. If he encounters danger and can run out, it's good, but if he can't run out, he can only die.

Chang Shisi didn't want his future life to turn out like this. He felt that it would be better for him to join these teams that treated him, a speed psychic, as cannon fodder.

It would be better to be like this now, being the boss himself and taking his brothers to collect (rob) protection fees everywhere, which is more comfortable.

**

The members of the Dawn Team originally planned to deal with these two people who wanted to rob them in the same way as before.

Who would have thought that after waiting for several minutes, there was no movement, and the two people hiding in the bushes were still hiding in the bushes. If their tires had not been punctured, they would have suspected that the two people were here to rob.

Although they didn't know what these two people were planning, they didn't have much time to spend with them here. Since these two people don't come out, they can only take action first. It's just that the order of action is different. If you deal with these two people earlier, you can return to the base earlier. They couldn't cross the bridge today, and they were in no mood to play hide-and-seek games with these two people.

However, just as the few people who got off the car to arrest someone had gotten off, Ruan Ning, who was sitting in the car, saw a black shadow suddenly pass in front of the window on his side.

——That’s a person!

"One of these two people is a speedster." She said to the people outside on the other side.

It was the first time she had seen a supernatural being move so fast. He flashed past her like a gust of wind and disappeared. Fortunately, it was during the day. If it was at night, she might have missed it.

It took the speedster less than half a minute to circle their car, then he seemed to pick up something from a car behind him and left.

At the same time Ruan Ning said that, the other members of the team also aimed their attacks at the person who stole the things.

Unexpectedly, after taking the things from their car, the man didn't linger at all and just kept running forward. Because the two sides were quite far apart at the beginning, and he was a speed esper of a high level, only Gu Yicheng's lightning esper almost hit him because of the attack distance, and the others didn't hit him.

"Everyone, go catch the other one first." Jiang Jingchao quickly discovered that the other person who came with this person was obviously moving much slower. The one who was stealing things was difficult to catch up with, but this person was much easier.

We have to catch whichever one we can. We can’t let both of them get away.

…

Chang Shisi had never thought that this team would have guns, and he dodged the attack in fear. He was originally happy that he had made a fortune today, because when he took it, he took a quick look and found that there was canned meat inside. It seemed that he could give everyone a meal today. For the rest, he would find a base to exchange it for rice and flour, which could last longer.

Just when Chang Shisi was thinking of finding a place to hide first, and then wait until later when these people gave up and return to look for the skinny little monkey, he saw that group of people were chasing in the direction the skinny little monkey escaped.

In order not to alert the enemy, Chang Shisi had not let the skinny little monkey set off firecrackers to attract the attention of those people, but had let him run away first. It was impossible for them to know which direction he was running.

But how to explain this, why didn't they come after him who was stealing things, but went to another place instead? ?

Chang Shisi looked at the skinny monkey who was about to be caught up by them, gritted his teeth, turned around and ran back.

Then, then... Chang Shisi was caught by the group of people when he was trying to attract attention for the skinny little monkey. Fortunately, after they caught him, they no longer cared about the skinny little monkey who had already run away.

Chang Shisi sat on the ground, unable to break free from the vine that bound him. And the more he struggled, the tighter it shrank. He was not careful when he ran just now, and was caught after being entangled by this thing. Otherwise, if he had been paying attention to keeping a distance from them, and they could not attack him, he should have had a chance to run away.

"Don't struggle. You can't break free with that little strength." Lin Yang took off the mask on the man's face and looked at the young boy in front of him who was still trying to break free from the vines and escape. He said with a smile, "Come on, tell me why you wanted to steal our things just now?"

Chang Shisi also knew that he would not be able to escape this time. He blinked his eyes, looked like he was crying, and said pitifully: "I haven't eaten for several days. I was really hungry, so I was possessed by the devil and did the wrong thing."

"That, that... brothers, I really know I was wrong, I shouldn't have taken your things. I know you are all good people, I was blind, please don't bother with a kid like me. I will return all your things to you, you see, the things are all in the bag in my hand, nothing is missing. You see that I admit my mistakes so well, please give me another chance to reform."

Lin Yang took the bag from his hand and weighed it. It was not light, and he found that he had taken a lot of things. He did not rush to check whether there were any missing items. He just squinted at the man and said, "Little brat, weren't you very good at stealing things just now? Why do you need us to give you a chance to reform yourself?"

In the past two months, they encountered many robberies, big and small, using various means. But the kid in front of them, who looked like he was only in junior high school, was the only one who almost succeeded. As for the other robbers, not to mention whether anyone could touch the supplies they put in the car, few even approached their car door.

Hearing the hostility in their tone, Chang Shisi wanted to cry but showed a flattering smile on his face: "No, no, no... I just succeeded by luck. In fact, I am super weak! Really!! Compared with you, my ability is not worth being together. Otherwise, I would not be caught by you. You adults are magnanimous. Considering that I am a first-time offender and you have no losses, can you let me go?"

He didn't expect to run into such a tough opponent this time. These people were much stronger than anyone he had met before.

Little skinny monkey, little skinny monkey, today the boss is going to slip because of you. It seems that everyone in the group will be left to you to take care of. The position of the group leader will also be inherited by you.

Lin Yang heard that every word this person said was about asking them to let him go. The corners of his mouth twitched. He ignored the child who was pretending to be pitiful and flattering him. He tilted his head and asked, "Brother Gu, what do you think we should do with this person?"

Children and the elderly not only lack the ability to protect themselves, but also have relatively few people who have awakened superpowers. Among the people who died in the apocalypse, the number of deaths in these two age groups accounted for the largest proportion. Generally speaking, if one out of ten elderly people and children can survive, it is considered very good. And the child in front of him not only survived, but also upgraded his superpowers to this level, which is not easy.

Gu Yicheng glanced at the nervous boy and said, "It's the same as before, you can handle it yourself." Generally speaking, when encountering robberies like this, as long as the other party does not fight with them first, they have no interest in fighting. Of course, they will not let those people go so easily afterwards. They should also learn a lesson and remember to open their eyes before robbing others next time.

Deal with it as before! How? !

Chang Shisi watched them all start to discuss how to deal with him, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. This group of people were not only strong, but also stubborn. It was too difficult to deal with. At the moment of life and death, he suddenly thought of a good way to let them let him go, so he quickly said: "Your team should have just come from the cross-river bridge. You wanted to cross the bridge, but you couldn't find any other way, so now you can only turn around and go back, right..."

"Little brat, if you have something to say, just say it now. Stop talking nonsense and get to the point. We don't have much time to waste with you here. You should know that my knife is not sharp." Lin Yang showed a machete, which he often used to kill zombies. However, Lin Yang didn't intend to really kill him, so he took it out to scare him and teach the little brat a lesson. Let him not do such sneaky things next time.

His ability level is not low, he could have joined a better team and survived on his own. Why did he do something like stealing things from passers-by?

Although Chang Shisi was used to being independent in the end times, he was, after all, just a teenager who had just turned fifteen last month. When he thought he was facing a life-or-death crisis, he panicked and his face turned pale. He stopped preparing and directly stated his purpose: "Don't kill me! I have a boat!!"

"I have a boat! I can take you across the river!"
