Chapter 88: Survival in the End of the World
For Lin Wanwan, the system is the existence she trusts the most.
Since the system suggested that she rest, it meant that the situation was not critical enough to require them to stay awake all night.
"Sister Liu, there's a noodle shop up ahead. Let's take a break there and have breakfast."
Liu Rumei looked at the sky, then looked at her watch, and agreed with Lin Wanwan's decision.
The other three could no longer resist and fell asleep. Although Liu Rumei had slept in the first half of the night, she was not in a very good mood at this time.
The truck stopped steadily in front of the store. The glass door of the store was closed but not locked. It seemed that the store was open for business when the apocalypse broke out.
"Sister Liu, grab your weapons!"
The two men did not wake up the other three, but walked into the store alone with weapons.
The dining area was empty except for some crooked dining tables, and there were also a lot of bloodstains in the room.
The two of them stared at the direction of the kitchen, and then walked towards the closed door step by step.
It seems that when the apocalypse broke out, a riot also broke out in the restaurant.
Maybe there were survivors hiding in the kitchen, but why did they all turn into zombies in the end?
Lin Wanwan didn’t know, but it was likely that someone was infected with the zombie virus.
"I'll fight in close combat, and you'll attack from a distance!"
Liu Rumei tightened the machete in her hand, ready to chop.
The moment the kitchen door opened, a zombie covered in red rushed out.
Lin Wanwan, who had been prepared, immediately shot and killed him.
Even if the zombie's weakness is obvious, a hit to the head will basically mean death.
On the contrary, if you attack other places, not only will you fail to kill the opponent, but it will also provoke more ferocity in the opponent.
Liu Rumei also raised a machete and attacked other zombies.
There were only six zombies in the kitchen, and the two of them quickly dealt with them. The three people in the car rushed out immediately after hearing the gunshots.
When they came in, Lin Wanwan and Liu Rumei had already dealt with all the zombies.
The two were checking the supplies in the shop.
"Xiaotian, yours!"
Liu Rumei threw the fire zombie crystal core she had just obtained to Wang Xiaotian.
After fighting zombies for a period of time, the team came to a conclusion that fire zombie crystal cores are easier to obtain than other zombie crystal cores.
At least three or four out of ten have red crystal cores, and there are also quite a few wood and earth elements, but the probability of water elements appearing is relatively low.
"Thanks. I'm just hungry. I can get something to eat at this store."
"Ling Si, come here and help me get rid of these zombies."
Wang Xiaotian collected the zombie crystal core, then called Ling Si for help. The two of them carried the zombie and threw it to the side of the road.
"I'll find a mop to clean up. Wanwan, you find some ingredients. Everything in the kitchen is broken and can't be used."
As Liu Rumei spoke, she picked up the bucket and mop and started cleaning.
At this moment, the mother in the car arrived at the store door at some point.
"Hey everyone, what can we do?"
When Liu Rumei saw someone working, she immediately handed the mop and bucket in her hand to the other person.
"Since you guys aren't sleeping anymore, help with the cleaning."
"Also, it's better for your daughter to come down with you. It's still very unsafe for her to stay in the car alone."
Since someone took care of the sanitation, Liu Rumei went to help Lin Wanwan throw the moldy and spoiled ingredients into the trash can, and then picked out the ingredients that were still edible.
The power supply in H City had been cut off long ago, so even the things in the refrigerator and freezer had rotted and spoiled.
But one of the store's freezers appeared to be using its own electricity supply and did not stop functioning.
Wang Xiaotian looked for it and finally found a small engine in the utility room.
"The ingredients are ready, you can go and rest for a while, Liu Rumei and I will be here."
Ling Si found a basin and carefully washed his hands after moving the corpse, and then went to the kitchen.
He is the best cook here, so Ling Si usually prepares meals for them.
Only when Ling Si is resting will others take action.
"My lords, I'm a pretty good cook. If you trust me, you can leave the cooking to me."
The woman who had just cleaned the floor immediately came over with her child.
In fact, there is no need to clean it much. You just need to remove the things that shouldn’t be there. As for the dust in the corners, who cares about them?
You're not staying here long term, just stopping for a while, there's no need to be so careful.
"What are your two names?"
Lin Wanwan came up to the two of them and looked at them carefully.
The woman was supposed to be wearing white clothes, but when the end of the world came, no one knew where she was hiding, and the white clothes on her body turned black and gray.
The little girl was wearing a sundress with a small blouse over it.
This was the most common dress before the end of the world, but now it seems a bit out of place.
At least normal people would not choose to wear skirts in the apocalypse.
It seems that the mother and daughter are not doing well. Not only are they covered in dirt, but they are also extremely thin.
I don’t know where they hid during these 15 days, and I can’t even find their clothes.
"Hello, Miss. My name is Zhao Xiaohong and my daughter is Zhao Tiantian."
"When the apocalypse arrived, we were trapped in our unit's office, which is the small private enterprise over there that you passed by."
"For the past 15 days, we have survived by relying on snacks we found in the office."
"The other colleagues are either out for some reason or have turned into zombies."
"I don't dare go out with my daughter. We only dare to go out in the house where I work."
Zhao Xiaohong knew in her heart that she had to explain her identity clearly and not arouse any suspicion from the other party.
So she could only tell the truth, for her daughter's survival and for herself.
Before the end of the world, she felt that she and her daughter were living a good life in this world and was complacent about it.
What single mother could do what she did?
But after the end of the world, Zhao Xiaohong realized that he was just a useless coward.
She didn't dare leave the house to look for supplies. The reason she dared to rush out this time was because she was determined to die if she was not rescued.
Because Zhao Xiaohong has been single and raising a daughter for more than ten years, she understands the ways of the world better.
I know that everyone in front of me is very powerful, and if I want to stay with them, I have to play my best role.
Only useful people deserve to survive. If they try to use moral blackmail or act like scoundrels, not only will they not be able to stay in the team, but they will be abandoned or even killed by the other side.
