Chapter 39 Extremely Hot, Guaranteed
"Swish swish——"
Suddenly, several men in special agent uniforms appeared from all directions and surrounded them.
This is official man!
Everyone stood back to back, their faces full of vigilance.
After a while, flickering flames and the sound of uniform footsteps came one after another.
A tall young man in military uniform with sharp eyes appeared in their sight.
Next to him was a familiar face.
Jiao Weisong flattered Kuang Jiaying: "Battalion Commander, it's them. They hid guns and ammunition, and set traps to kill people. That group must be related to them. Look at the guns in their hands, they are all the same."
Kuang Jiaying looked down at them from above, and finally landed on the most striking face of Qin Shen. He gave an order in a condescending tone: "Hand over all your guns!"
Qin Shen stood still as a mountain, his eyes indifferent, and their gazes met in the air, igniting each other's emotions.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, the authorities still controlled the world.
There is no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation.
Even if you escape today, you may face a full-scale pursuit.
Jiang Si grabbed Qin Shen's wrist to prevent him from acting impulsively. He threw the gun to the ground and said to Kuang Jiaying, "We didn't keep the gun privately. We got it from a group of poachers and were about to hand it over to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask the forest ranger."
When Kuang Jiaying heard her speak, his eyes turned to her face, with a hint of amusement in his expression.
Qin Shen blocked his view, and Kuang Jiaying sneered, "If you want to hand it over, why are you running?"
Jiang Si immediately explained: "We thought it was the group of people in the forest who came to cause trouble for us again. We are a group of ordinary people, so of course we ran away because we were scared."
Jiao Weisong immediately said anxiously, "Captain, don't listen to her nonsense! Everyone rescued from this village has accused her family of secretly hiding guns! And they also killed many people!"
Jiang Si lowered his eyes, "Everything requires evidence. They said we hid guns before. Do you have any evidence? Do you have any video?"
Jiao Weisong took out the bullets from his arms and said, "This is the bullet you shot into the villagers! This is the evidence!"
Jiang Si emphasized again: "I've already said that this gun was obtained from a group of poachers. They shot and killed someone, so it definitely has nothing to do with us."
"You are clearly quibbling!"
"What are we trying to say? We only held guns to protect ourselves and scare people, and then we'd turn them in when we had the chance. You keep insisting we killed people, but did you actually see us use guns and shoot? Or did you witness us killing people with your own eyes?"
"Those who accused us of murder are probably jealous that our whole family is still alive and want to steal our stored food, just like last time, when some idiots were instigated to break into our house and rob us."
Jiao Weisong, who was being implied, turned pale and blue in the face, and was furious: "Our captain asked you to open the door, so why didn't you open it?"
Jiang Si sneered, "Our house has been broken into so many times, countless times by people pretending to be relatives or friends. What if there are so many of you? What if you're not the official ones? Once we get out, we'll just become cannon fodder!"
"Then why don't you go to the refugee camp? Why do you have to stay here?"
Jiang Sireng glanced at him and said, "We have hidden food and water at home. Why do we have to go to the refugee camp? Besides, I just said that who can guarantee that you are the real officials? If the officials come and ask us to take water and food, who wouldn't be scared? Who would dare to open the door? Can you do it?"
Jiang Si looked at Kuang Jiaying again: "I believe this leader must have the ability to distinguish!"
Kuang Jiaying picked up the hunting rifle on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Then how did you get the guns from that group of people?" It seemed as if Jiang Si could not explain clearly and he would detain them immediately.
Jiang Si remained calm and said, "We accidentally found it in the forest, and it was discovered by a group of poachers. It almost cost us our lives. Fortunately, we ran away quickly."
Jiang Si had discussed this with everyone beforehand to prevent any trouble caused by using guns for self-defense.
Even if Zhang Xianchao is arrested and his confession is wrong, there is no way to convict them as long as they deny it.
Kuang Jiaying looked at her for a few seconds, and soon, Lu Zhifeng and Niu Niu were brought over.
Kuang Jiaying questioned Lu Zhifeng's confession alone. He and Jiang Si said there was no way out, so he interrogated Qin Shen: "You have stored food and water, so why did you go into the forest?"
Qin Shen's expression was cold. "There will always be a day when we run out of food and drink. Why don't we save ourselves? Do we have to live in someone else's shelter in a shelter?"
Qin Shen's calm answer seemed to dispel Kuang Jiaying's last doubts.
He took out a shrunken mushroom and asked, "Have you seen this kind of mushroom?"
Niuniu couldn't hide her thoughts, and Kuang Jiaying saw through them. He said affirmatively, "You knew this kind of mushroom could protect you from the sun's radiation, so you dared to stay!"
Jiao Weisong's eyes lit up, and he immediately demanded, "Take us to find Mushroom and that group of people, so that we can prove that you are not lying!"
As long as he finds this kind of mushroom and conducts large-scale breeding research, he will have made a contribution by bringing Kuang Jiaying here.
I thought Jiang Si would agree immediately, but Jiang Si refused without hesitation: "We don't need proof in the first place. Turning in the guns doesn't count as a credit, so why should we risk entering the forest to lead you?"
Jiang Si's refusal was reasonable, as they did not have the power to force him to lead the way.
Kuang Jiaying was silent for a moment, then said to Jiang Si, "As long as you lead the way, I can apply for a reward for you." He then gently coaxed her, "Your supplies probably aren't much anymore, right? I can give you a year's worth of food."
Lu Zhifeng showed a hint of joy, this was the supplies promised by the authorities.
He was a little tempted, thinking about the guns that had been surrendered openly, no matter how many he got, they would not be able to protect him, so he subconsciously looked at Jiang Si and the others.
Jiang Si naturally couldn't reveal that their family had no worries about supplies, so he pretended to be hesitant and looked at Qin Shen: "What do you think?"
Qin Shen actually said: "I'll listen to you."
As if they had some kind of close relationship, the calm tone of voice caused ripples in her heart.
Jiang Si looked at him calmly, then at her parents behind her. Seeing their expressions that showed she was letting her make the decision, she turned to Kuang Jiaying and said, "We only give you directions, not directions, because it's too dangerous to go in. Besides supplies, I'd also like to ask for a guarantee from the leader, is that okay?"
Kuang Jiaying raised an eyebrow and asked, "What guarantee?"
"Make sure no one can occupy our house and drive us away!" Jiang Sidao said.
If Kuang Jiaying finds the mushrooms and gets rid of Zhang Xianchao, he will most likely find a water source.
In the face of water scarcity, a human base is likely to form here again.
Their house is ready-made, and there is no guarantee that someone will take a fancy to it and try their best to move in.
This kind of situation has happened before in my previous life.
Jiang Si has no plans to take his parents away from here for the time being. The fact that the authorities are maintaining order is actually a good thing for their family, as their basic life safety can be guaranteed for the time being.
