Upon hearing Chen Hu's words, Lin Xia let out a cold laugh.
"Don't even think about targeting my son. I'd rather lose the lives of everyone in this city than let anyone touch my son."
"He is living well in Xiangcheng now."
“If I really listened to you and smuggled supplies out of Xiangcheng, my son would be thrown out of Xiangcheng by that tigress there.”
Lin Xia understood this very clearly.
He's used to being timid and hesitant in his actions, but timid people have one advantage: they tend to overthink things.
They considered all the potential problems, which made them very hesitant and timid in their actions.
Chen Hu still had a smile on his face, but his voice was neither warm nor cold.
"It seems that Commander Lin has many more solutions, and I don't need to solve the current predicament of your F City."
One bottle of "Energy Water Drops" is only enough for Chen Hu's mother to drink for a few days.
As Chen Hu's mother's life force gradually diminished, her need for the [Energy Drops] grew ever greater.
This made Chen Hu very anxious.
He desperately wanted to possess a large number of [Energy Drops].
Over the phone, Lin Xia scoffed:
"Mr. Chen, have you ever thought about this?"
"You need so many [Energy Drops] now. Have you considered that if it weren't for what you did back then, the Xiangcheng base wouldn't have been closed?"
"Then the [Energy Drop] will no longer be a luxury item in this apocalypse."
Chen Hu frowned, about to speak.
Lin Xia then said:
"I don't have any Energy Drops on hand, but I have many alternatives."
Do you want to know?
Chen Hu immediately asked:
What is the alternative?
Lin Xia said,
"As you know, our city of F has many medical research experts."
"So after the end times came, our medical research experts have been conducting research."
"It was only recently, after the Xiangcheng base was closed and the [Energy Droplet] entered a period of scarcity, that our people told me that the crystal cores that come out of the zombies' brains can also be absorbed by the human body."
"And become a substitute for [Energy Drops]."
These words made Chen Hu fall into deep thought, and he asked carefully:
"Are you telling the truth? The zombie crystal cores used as currency in the Xiangcheng base?"
The main function of zombie crystal cores is known to everyone in the apocalypse.
That is, after killing the zombies, collect the crystal cores from their brains.
Then bring it to the Xiangcheng base to exchange for a recharge card. You can use the recharge card to buy supplies at the automatic shopping machine in the Xiangcheng base.
Lin Xia spoke with absolute certainty.
"Think about it yourself, why does Hua Mi require crystal cores to exchange for the supplies she sells?"
"Perhaps her [Energy Drop] was made from zombie crystal cores."
"I have a medical expert who has specifically studied the [Energy Drops] sold in the Xiangcheng base. In fact, their composition is not much different from that of zombie crystal cores."
"It's just a diamond, the only difference between it and a diamond."
Since Lin Xia said that, Chen Hu felt more at ease.
Indeed, he also wondered what Hua Mi was doing with so many crystal cores in her possession.
It's definitely going to be used to make "energy droplets".
Chen Hu's heart pounded, and he was about to hang up on Lin Xia.
But Lin Xia calmly said:
"I told Mr. Chen about this news. I hope Mr. Chen won't break his promise to me."
At that time, Chen Hu said he would tell Lin Xia the address of the Qu family's stockpiled supplies.
Chen Hu laughed and said, "Of course not."
He quickly told Lin Xia the addresses of several supply depots near F City, and then hung up the phone.
Chen Hu's cousins, standing to the side, harbored resentment.
One of my cousins tentatively asked:
"Boss, you told Lin Xia about these supply depots. Won't we run out of supplies when we need them in the future?"
In fact, no one needs to analyze human nature.
The reason why Chen Hu's cousins have stayed with him all this time is because Chen Hu knows a lot of places where supplies are stockpiled.
Over such a long period of time, Chen Hu, having followed Qu Shiheng closely, had already thoroughly investigated the Qu family's supply depots.
The locations where these supplies were stockpiled were all stored in Chen Hu's mind.
Therefore, only by following Chen Hu can my cousins avoid worrying about supplies in the future.
But now, Chen Hu has told Lin Xia where all these supplies are stored, just to get a few bottles of [Energy Drops] from her.
Chen Hu's cousins were all very resentful.
Chen Hu's eyes held a murderous intent, but he did not show it on his face.
Instead, he adopted a very gentle expression and spoke to his younger cousins.
"Don't worry, I have plenty of supplies stockpiled."
"Compared to the supply depots I told Lin Xia about, this is just a drop in the ocean."
"Moreover, the supplies in these stockpiles have already been emptied by the Qu family."
"We should just let Lin Xia go and get the supplies. He'll either come up empty-handed or end up picking up the leftovers from the Qu family."
"You've been working for me, when have I ever treated you unfairly? You can rest assured."
