Chapter 402 But I can't bring myself to do it.



I'm currently working as a doctor at the Xiangcheng base, but I don't earn as much as I do from taking on zombie-killing missions at the mission center.

The medical staff at the Xiangcheng base are all paid a fixed salary.

Although they have no shortage of supplies for a month, they also receive shopping cards worth over 100,000 yuan every month.

But that's all the future they have.

I want to make another breakthrough, do something big, and achieve great success.

There's absolutely no way to deal with it.

However, those from Xiangcheng who accepted the missions at the mission center earned much more.

They can easily bring back half a sack of crystal cores after going out to kill zombies.

A bag of crystal cores can be recharged into shopping cards, some of which can be exchanged for shopping cards worth millions.

So what skills does Lin Zhigang have? He doesn't even have the ability to kill zombies.

How did he manage to kill Hua Mi?

During the phone call, Chen Hu was not surprised by Lin Zhigang's backing down. He told Lin Zhigang,

"If you can't kill Hua Mi, then give me one of Hua Mi's children."

“I don’t care what methods you use, she ruined my family and forced me to this state. It’s not too much for me to ask for one of her children.”

After saying this, Chen Hu decisively hung up the phone, leaving Lin Zhigang alone, sitting in the ruins.

He was stunned for a long time. After he came to his senses, Lin Zhigang hurriedly picked up his phone and quickly called his father's phone back home.

However, Chen Hu did not answer Lin Zhigang's calls again. No matter how many times Lin Zhigang called, the line was always busy.

It seems that Chen Hu is forcing Lin Zhigang to choose between two options.

Lin Zhigang sat in the ruins, and it's unclear how long he had been sitting there.

It might only take a moment, or it might have taken several hours.

When Hua Mi saw Lin Zhigang again, his hair had turned completely white.

Hua Mi looked at Lin Zhigang in surprise and asked uncertainly:

"What's wrong with you? Are you overusing your brain, or have you activated some kind of superpower?"

Sitting amidst the ruins, Lin Zhigang raised his dim, unclear eyes, looking in Hua Mi's direction; his pupils could not focus.

He stared at Hua Mi blankly for a long while before regaining his senses and muttering in a daze:

"Oh, you've arrived."

Hua Mi narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Lin Zhigang, whose expression was strange. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

Hua Mi only inspected the small safe zone in the ruins that Lin Zhigang had created once.

Hua Mi raised her wrist to look at the watch she was wearing, and said to Lin Zhigang,

"I only have half a night left, and my husband is keeping a close eye on me, so I need to hurry up and get out of here."

"Let's talk about it once we reach the next safe zone."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hua Mi activated the electric fence in the safe zone of the ruins, emerged from the fence, and began fighting her way out.

Behind her, Lin Zhigang composed himself, his face pale, and followed Hua Mi as they charged out.

Halfway there, Lin Zhigang asked Hua Mi,

"What about the supplies that were left in the ruins?"

When Hua Mi returned to Xiangcheng, she prepared enough supplies for Lin Zhigang to eat for more than half a month, as well as [Energy Drops].

Only a few days have passed, and Lin Zhigang has been eating very frugally these past few days.

So there are still a lot of supplies inside that safe zone in the ruins.

Hua Mi fought her way through zombies, taking the time to answer Lin Zhigang's questions.

"Leave it there. Maybe someone desperate to survive will discover the ruins."

"They will get a chance to catch their breath in that safe zone you created yourself."

"The supplies you left behind might save their lives."

Lin Zhigang, who was following behind Hua Mi, stopped killing the zombies.

He stared intently at Hua Mi's retreating figure, perhaps after she had uttered those words.

Lin Zhigang suddenly realized that Hua Mi was not as ruthless as everyone said.

She also had a side of great benevolence and righteousness, but in the dark and despicable end times, her great benevolence and righteousness seemed so hidden.

After Hua Mi and Lin Zhigang had been fighting for four hours, they arrived at the next shattered town.

She found a secluded ruin.

Hua Mi pointed to a very inconspicuous, narrow, and dark crack in the ruins and said to Lin Zhigang:

"In my experience, there should be a safe zone inside. Go in and check if there are any dangers."

There will always be some collapsed ruins with a stable open space that zombies can't get into, nor can various mutated plants and animals.

Survivors call these places "safe zones".

As she spoke, Hua Mi raised her hand and threw a lamp into the ruins.

Just as Lin Zhigang's gaze followed the light into that narrow gap...

Hua Mi then threw a huge bag into the gap from behind Lin Zhigang.

She told Lin Zhigang,

"This bag contains electric grids, [energy droplets], and jelly-like stones."

"Next, you will build a small, electrified safety zone here. I won't go into the details of the process, and you already know the precautions."

As Hua Mi spoke, she followed Lin Zhigang into the ruins.

The ruins are quite safe inside, but there are just too many zombies outside.

In fact, for the entire four hours that Hua Mi and Lin Zhigang were fighting zombies, they were not far from D City.
