That attitude of "a prodigal son returning home is worth more than gold" has confused many people.
However, behind this seemingly diligent appearance is a good opportunity for them to act secretly.
A few compressed biscuits, a small packet of salt, or even one or two inconspicuous tools or medicines were all secretly hidden by them in the lining of their clothes or in secret corners they had found in advance, like mice moving house, when no one was paying attention.
Their little action soon caught the attention of Zheng Sisi, who was in charge of the warehouse and kitchen.
She saw these people wandering around the warehouse and the kitchen every day, and occasionally stealing things. She just thought that they were having a hard time, were greedy, and had some bad intentions, wanting to secretly add some food to their meals.
She didn't speak out immediately. After all, in this end times, who doesn't have selfish motives?
As long as it's not excessive, she doesn't bother to delve into it.
Until one time, when the young man in the lead was "helping" to carry cans, he secretly put two boxes into his arms. Then Zheng Sisi said a few words indifferently:
"Hey, you guys have been quite diligent lately."
"But the things in the warehouse are everyone's life-saving food, and everyone's daily ration is fixed."
"If you're really hungry, tell me and the captain. We can share some of the food. But don't take anything yourself. It would be bad if people think there's a rat in our team."
Zheng Sisi's original intention was to remind them to stop when necessary, hoping that they could restrain themselves.
However, she didn't expect that these words, which seemed normal to her, would sound like thunder to those people who were already suspicious and sensitive!
"Rat?!"
As soon as Zheng Sisi left, those people gathered together, their faces turned ashen in an instant, and their eyes almost spitted fire.
"Who the hell is she calling a rat!" The leader gritted his teeth, veins throbbing on his forehead.
"I'm telling you! These veteran team members don't even treat us as human beings! They just find any excuse to humiliate us!"
"Even a woman who manages the warehouse dares to speak to us like that! I can't stand this shabby place for even a day!"
"That's right! We must leave as soon as possible!"
Zheng Sisi's "reminder" not only failed to make them restrain themselves, but instead added fuel to the fire, completely intensifying the resentment and hostility in their hearts.
They felt that their dignity had been greatly insulted, which was more unbearable than hunger.
"Let's go! Let's go now!"
There was a crazy and dangerous light in the eyes of the leader.
"But before we leave, we have to do something big! We can't let this humiliation go unpunished. We have to let them know that we're not pushovers!"
A more sinister and crazy undercurrent surged and grew between them.
The plan to leave was brought forward, and the target of "that big ticket" before leaving had already been quietly locked.
