Chapter 370: Stuck in the Corner
He had no sympathy for them at all! Of course, some people were willing to come back, but because of the natural disaster in the United States, they did not catch the plane home and did not return to Country H as soon as possible. These people are pitiful and they feel guilty!
Lu Xingtang didn't care who they were. He took Ji Yanmo's hand and walked towards them, asking them about the situation in the country and seeing what their situation was.
Soon, they were discovered: "Who is it? Stop! Don't move! If you move again, we will shoot!"
As they spoke, they found their guns and pointed them at them. Seeing their guns, Lu Xingtang was stunned for a moment, and then helpless. The guns in their hands were all very old and broken. They were unusable and could only scare people! Some people even had air guns in their hands, which were also broken and had no lethality at all.
In addition to the broken guns, there were also some knives. The knives were full of notches, very blunt and dirty. They were duller than the chopping knives that had been used to chop bones in the vegetable market for ten years without being sharpened.
Lu Xingtang said, "Don't be afraid. We are also H countrymen! We don't have any weapons. We are not here to hurt you. We are desperate and have come here. We are very sorry. We didn't mean to come here. Please don't shoot. We don't want to die yet!"
After hearing Lu Xingtang's words, everyone looked at Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo carefully. "You look better off than us. You even have some flesh on your face. Where were you hiding before? Where do you usually find supplies?"
Lu Xingtang lowered his head. "We were lucky. We found an underground tunnel and went to the warehouse of the Tusiya Soldiers' Camp. We quietly settled down there, eating the soldiers' food and surviving! Now, we dare not stay here anymore. We are afraid of being discovered if they make any big moves, so we are looking for a suitable place to stay. If you don't despise us and accept us, we will take you to find food in that warehouse. There is plenty of food and medicine there!"
Ji Yanmo discovered this when he used his supernatural powers to explore Tusya. Two survivors, a man and a woman, dug a tunnel under the grain warehouse in the Tusya military warehouse. They are now living in the tunnel and are from the H country.
Hearing Lu Xingtang's words, everyone's faces lit up with joy, but the next moment their smiles faded: "Put your hands on your head and squat down! Hurry!"
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo squatted down very obediently, hugged their heads, lowered their heads, and looked at the ground. Then a few people walked towards them and pulled them over. "They don't have guns on them, but they are much cleaner than us!"
"Block him in the corner and interrogate him thoroughly!"
After hearing this, Lu Xingtang understood that it would be better if there was a leader for these more than 200 people.
Next, they were cornered, with a broken gun pressed against their heads. "Next, you will answer whatever we ask you, and you must answer honestly! Otherwise, I will take your lives right now!"
Lu Xingtang looked at the black gun barrel and nodded weakly: "Okay!" Ji Yanmo also nodded. They knew that this group of people were unwilling to believe them and would definitely question them.
"Are you really from Country H? Tell me your name, ID card, address of your hometown in China before the apocalypse, and your ID number. Also, how long have you been in the United States? What were you doing in the United States before the apocalypse? How did you survive after the apocalypse? Who did you meet, what happened, etc.? Tell me everything in detail!"
Lu Xingtang looked at them speechlessly: "Are you sure you want to trace our past instead of trying to find food to survive?"
"Boss, there is indeed something wrong with them!" The speaker immediately looked at the people behind the crowd and shouted.
Lu Xingtang suddenly grabbed the man who was holding her head against hers, snatched the gun from his hand, and threw the broken gun to the ground. She put her hands behind her back and a Beretta 87 appeared in her hands. She quickly pulled the trigger: "Your guns are out of bullets and can't be used, but mine not only has bullets, but it's also brand new! If you are not afraid of attracting the attention of the beautiful people above, you can just go against me! I guarantee that if the beautiful people find you, you will all die here!"
Ji Yanmo then held two guns, both Beretta 87s. "Everyone, step back immediately! Line up in order of tallest people!"
After hearing Ji Yanmo's words, the survivors silently looked at their boss, then looked at the guns in Lu Xingtang and the others' hands, and then they all retreated obediently and lined up.
Seeing that the two hundred people were standing in formation, with only their boss staring at them coldly, Lu Xingtang took two steps forward. "Don't worry, we're not here to take your lives. Your lives are worthless! Even though you may look very brave now!"
Everyone looked at the gun in Lu Xingtang's hand and broke out in a cold sweat. They were not afraid of the gun in Lu Xingtang's hand, but they were afraid that they would be discovered by the American people after the gun was fired. They did not want to die at the hands of the American people.
"Don't be impulsive. We're all H countrymen. If we die, it won't do you two any good!" The leader of the 200 survivors spoke up. He said expressionlessly, "You two never considered killing us from the beginning to the end. If you did, we'd already be dead!"
Lu Xingtang raised his eyebrows: "You are really smart. We really don't want you to die! But, if you want to die, we will grant your wish!"
"What do you want to know? This time," the boss looked deeply at Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo: "How many people from our H country have come? Can we go back to H country?"
Lu Xingtang glanced at everyone calmly: "You are not bipeds, so of course you can return to Country H. As long as you persist and don't give up! It is impossible for bipeds to return to Country H. Everyone is afraid of bipeds and afraid of becoming their food!"
The boss was relieved, and everyone was relieved.
Lu Xingtang then asked about their affairs and the situation in Lianguo.
The eldest brother answered first: "We are all from Country H! Originally, when the apocalypse broke out, we could have returned to Country H. However, some people failed to board the plane home because of natural disasters! Some people were forced to stay because the journey was too long and they couldn't reach the designated location. There are also some people, such as me, who think that Country H is no good, that Country H is rubbish, that it is not as strong as America, nor does it have as many resources as America, and that the air is not as fresh as America. We think that America is better than Country H in every way, so we are willing to stay and live and die with America!
Of course, there are also some people studying or working. It's not that they don't want to go back, but they think the natural disaster apocalypse is fake, so they want to wait. If they wait, they will never have the chance to return to Country H! Originally, our group was large, but because of the need to survive, many people starved to death, froze to death, died of heatstroke, died of disease..."
