Chapter 24 On the Road



Zhang Yang snorted coldly and continued, "Jin Hui, when you hurt your aunt yesterday, did you think about what I would do if I found out?"

Zhang Yang took out a rolling pin from behind the sofa. All the other tools he used to fight the zombies yesterday were either broken, snapped, or burned. Only this one was still usable.

Jin Hui's eyes darted around; even though he was restrained, he was still resentful.

"What you do is none of my business. That's my family's business. You're an outsider, you're meddling way too much."

"Wide? Heh, whether it's wide or not isn't up to you to decide. But it doesn't matter anyway, you don't need to know."

Zhang Yang knocked him unconscious with a powerful blow, then gave Jiang Ruan and the other two a look, signaling them to leave quickly.

In the car, Anxia and Anchun, who had just witnessed the bloody scene, looked at each other and sat in the back, breathing lightly in the quiet atmosphere.

They were afraid of being asked something if they raised their voices, so they didn't want to talk right now.

However, Jiang Ruan was different. She felt that Zhang Yang's actions were not wrong, and naturally she was not afraid of him.

It's just strange, what are those people running around on the street in broad daylight?

"Zhang Yang, pull over and wait a bit." In a shady spot, Jiang Ruan watched the crowd running in one direction, her beautiful eyebrows slightly raised as she quietly observed.

"What's wrong? Or is it that what I did just now was inappropriate, and you don't plan to cooperate with me anymore and want me to get off the bus?"

“I can explain, I really…” Zhang Yang’s determination wavered. He really couldn’t hold back just now. That bastard actually killed his own mother to save his own life.

No, even if he didn't kill her, it was because of him that the smell of blood in the air made him realize that his aunt was really dead.

Therefore, he lost control of his emotions and attacked Jin Hui, who was still human, fearing that Jiang Ruan would refuse to cooperate because of this.

If this is true, he will feel regretful, but he will never regret what he just did.

"Zhang Yang, what do you think those people are doing? Are they looting supplies, seeking government assistance, or something else?" Jiang Ruan interrupted Zhang Yang.

"Ah, uh, I think it's more like looting supplies. After all, yesterday's torrential rain didn't come, but a lot of zombies did, and many people died as a result."

"Everyone knows that staying at home and having some food makes it easier to survive, so people are belatedly starting to stock up on things."

"It should be like this..." Zhang Yang gripped the steering wheel tightly. He hadn't expected Jiang Ruan to ask these questions. He thought she would tell him to get out of the car.

"Is that so? I don't think so!" Jiang Ruan saw that the crowd had split into three groups: one group was heading towards the supermarket, one group was heading towards the government service center building, and the other group was watching and waiting at the entrances of various hospitals.

Because they were hiding in the shade of the trees and were partially obscured by some damaged cars, they were not conspicuous. In addition, the high chassis and high car frame provided a wide field of vision, allowing them to clearly see the scene outside.

"Damn it, what is the government doing? Wasn't it supposed to be a torrential rain? What were those monsters doing yesterday? This is like the end of the world."

A man walked by, cursing, and another man with him responded.

"Don't even mention it, who knows what happened. If I hadn't been quick enough to jump into the sewer and escape, I don't know what I would be like now."

"Pah! I was drunk then. If I were sober, I'd kill all those scoundrels!" the man grumbled, angry that his drunkenness at yesterday's party had affected his performance.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry to the supermarket. It's probably going to be a frenzy right now. If we wait any longer, we won't even be able to buy any rotten vegetables."

As they spoke, the two sped up and ran forward.

"Looks like they really are scrambling for supplies! Sis, should we go?" An Chun listened from behind, thinking it wasn't too late to go now; if they waited any longer, there wouldn't be any left.

"No rush, I have some at home. Let's go to my house and get some. I prepared quite a lot. I was planning to celebrate my birthday in a few days, so I bought a lot."

Anxia shook her head regretfully as she thought about her birthday party a few days later.

She patted the back of Jiang Ruan's chair and told him about her idea of ​​going home to get supplies.

"You mean you have a lot of supplies at home, all kinds of food and drink, and we're going to take them to the mall to eat?" Jiang Ruan lowered her head and thought for a moment.

Anxia nodded. She calculated that with her preparations, she wouldn't be able to finish even two medium-sized kilos; she would need large kilos.

"Are the housekeeper and the detective at home?" Jiang Ruan suddenly asked, as if she had thought of something.

"Yes, I told them all to come back. They should be waiting at home. But I can't reach any of them. Oh right, cell phones, let's go buy some."

After a busy day filled with many unexpected events and a near-death experience, I realized my phone was missing. During this time, countless people must have been anxiously searching for her.

"Here, what do you want to buy? I have extra, I'll give you one." Zhang Yang took one out of his pocket and handed it over.

"Oh, I can't accept that. I'll transfer it to you later."

Anxia didn't stand on ceremony any longer. After accepting the call, she quickly connected to the car's Wi-Fi and logged into her account.

Please note that if your original SIM card is lost, you will need to apply for a replacement and verify it again before you can use it on your new phone.

But things are different now. With the development and changes of the times, information can be transmitted to the current mobile phone in real time simply by facial recognition.

As long as it is confirmed that it is the person in question and that they have given their authorization, it is acceptable.

Therefore, Anxia easily logged onto the communication device.

As soon as I turned on my phone, a news report popped up on the homepage.

"Our reporter reports that, given the current situation, it is relatively safe during the day. Citizens are advised to stock up on supplies as much as possible and stay home."

"In addition, seal the doors and windows tightly at night, making sure there is no noise or smell inside, so as to avoid being searched by zombies..."

"But don't worry too much. The country has mobilized all its police forces to crack down on and eliminate this problem. I believe it will be resolved within two weeks. Don't worry, have faith in the country."

The report didn't contain anything of value, but it did give Jiang Ruan and the others a direction: take advantage of the chaos, grab what they had, and run away, returning to the mall to wait quietly.

Without further ado, Zhang Yang started the car to leave, but unexpectedly, he ran into someone as soon as he started the engine—the same boy who had met Jiang Ruan once before.

"Ouch, I must be having a run of bad luck lately! I keep getting bumped into everywhere! I'm so done with this! My leg hurts so much!"

The man was hit and fell to the ground, howling in pain. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had suffered a great injustice.
