Chapter 17 Cafeteria Incident



A dreamless night.

Shen Tangtang woke up on time due to her biological clock, and there were small discussions around her, all about where they planned to go to scavenge today.

The two little girls did not come to apologize to Zhang Na last night. When Zhang Na came back, she felt that the food hidden under the pillow had been moved. Her eyes just darkened, and she didn't say anything.

I guess she won’t dare to leave food in the dormitory next time.

Shen Tangtang did not join the discussion around her. She and Lin Daiyu took a small basin and walked to the middle of the yard to fetch water for washing.

"Tangtang, you guys come over and wash up too."

"Well, Sister Zhang, you guys got up early too."

Seeing that it was Zhang Na and the others, Shen Tangtang smiled, took the bucket from her hand, and then threw it into the well to draw water.

"Oh no, there's nothing we can do. The wasteland with food is getting farther and farther away, and the car has to leave early."

Li Qin was a little worried. The farther away from the wasteland, the higher the danger. Although food could be found, everyone knew that if they encountered danger, ordinary people like them would only die.

"It's okay, don't be too discouraged. Being able to find food means we can still be alive, and as long as we are alive, there is hope." Shen Tangtang comforted casually.

"That's all we can do."

Li Qin nodded, picked up the wet towel and covered her face with it. She shivered from the cold, and her mind became much clearer.

Zhang Na next to her was also thoughtful and patted Li Qin's shoulder comfortingly.

Another Zhou Zhizhi also looked at Shen Tangtang in surprise. She felt that Shen Tangtang had changed.

Lin Daiyu also looked at Shen Tangtang in confusion. She had felt that something was wrong with Tangtang before. Tangtang used to seem dead quiet and had a feeling of just muddling through life, but what happened these past few days? She seemed to have a lot more energy.

Shen Tangtang felt the gazes of the people around her and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Why are you all looking at me? I think we can all accumulate points to leave the concentration camp, so I feel that the future is becoming more and more hopeful. As long as we work hard, there will be no problem surviving."

The sisters all looked at each other with an expression that said, "Is this really the case? Don't lie to me."

But no one said much. Everyone has their own secrets. Besides, the wasteland world is full of dangers. You don’t know when you will die. It is better to care about yourself than others.

Shen Tangtang put the towel in the water tray, squeezed out the excess water, and put it on her face, which made her feel much more sober after being frozen.

After washing up, Shen Tangtang and Lin Daiyu walked to the cafeteria.

I walked to the window for wild vegetable soup, took out a wild vegetable soup ticket I got when I came back from carrying firewood yesterday, and ordered a bowl of wild vegetable soup.

I found Lin Daiyu sitting in the corner, holding a wild vegetable pancake in her hand.

Wild vegetable cakes are more filling than wild vegetable soup, but they get stuck in the throat and require more chewing. Most people share a bowl of wild vegetable soup and a wild vegetable cake with two people.

He took the half pancake handed to him by Lin Daiyu, poured half a bowl of wild vegetable soup into her bowl, and then soaked his own pancake in it.

Shen Tangtang was enjoying a rare breakfast when she heard noisy sounds around her.

"Zhou Jiabao, if you have the ability, don't hide behind Lu Che. You stole our food yesterday and are gloating over it. Do you think everyone will indulge you? Just wait, we'll make you pay today."

"Zhang Bin, you're going too far. Regardless of whether Zhou Jiabao stole your food, you're threatening people like this now. Aren't you afraid of the dean's investigation?"

"Tsk, the dean doesn't care about these things. You're just a useless troublemaker. Besides, competition is not prohibited in the concentration camp. Have you become stupid after staying in the concentration camp? Hahahaha..."

"That's right, Lu Che is stupid. He actually thinks Zhou Jiabao treats him as his real brother."

"Who said it wasn't him? If it weren't for him, Zhou Jiabao wouldn't have arrogantly snatched food found by others in the wild."

"What do you mean by robbing? You haven't cut it off yet, so if I cut it off, it's mine."

Shen Tangtang watched with relish as a little fat boy confidently defended himself in front of seven or eight people.

The little boy sitting in front of him was quite interesting. He was tall and wore a black patched cloth. He could remain expressionless even in the face of provocations from so many people.

Lin Daiyu said from the side: "Lu Che was once supported by Zhou Jiabao's parents. Later, Zhou Jiabao's parents disappeared in the wild for some reason. The district chief chased them away, and they were sent to an orphanage."

Shen Tangtang was a little surprised how Lin Daiyu heard this, and asked with some confusion: “Sister Daiyu, how did you know.”

"Nana and the others told me that Lu Che is quite famous among the boys. I heard he's a good fighter."

Lin Daiyu spoke indifferently. She was not interested in Lu Che, but was quite curious about gossip, so she heard about this while chatting with Zhang Na and the others.

Shen Tangtang seemed to be thinking about something, no wonder these people only dared to talk.

Lu Che's name appeared in the novel. In the later period, he became a very powerful psychic, and even the male and female protagonists did not dare to offend him easily.

I just don’t know if it’s the little boy mentioned above. If so, how did he end up in a concentration camp? He is the youngest son of the Lu family.

The Lu family, the Shen family, the Ling family, and the Yang family are the four famous families in the aristocratic area of ​​Dawn Safety City. They were famous families before the apocalypse, and after the apocalypse, they used the materials and power in their hands to quickly gain a foothold in the apocalypse, and later participated in the construction of Dawn City.

Over the past 600 years, the Lu family has only had three patriarchs. And it wasn't because the previous patriarch died, but because they needed to go into seclusion before changing the patriarch. This is enough to prove the strength of the Lu family.

Of course, the other three families should not be underestimated. Ordinary people don’t know these things. It was only when Shen Tangtang heard Lu Che’s name that she remembered the description of the Lu family in the novel.

After eating and drinking, Shen Tangtang didn’t think about these things. Now there is still a year before the novel unfolds, and she has decided to stay away from the male and female protagonists, so she didn’t pay much attention to it.

Shen Tangtang and Lin Daiyu got up and left the cafeteria. It would take half an hour to get to the gathering place, and it would be too late if they didn't go there soon.

Lu Che looked up at the cafeteria entrance and saw two girls leaving one after the other.

He chewed the wild vegetable cake in his mouth irritably, stood up, and slapped Zhou Jiabao on the back of the head, "Let's go."

"Oh, oh, Brother Lu, wait a minute."

Zhou Jiabao hurriedly finished the wild vegetable soup in the bowl, licked his lips with satisfaction, left the bowl on the table, and ran to catch up.

When Shen Tangtang and the others reached the city gate, the only vehicles left were those heading to the southern wasteland. The route passed through several collection points, and the destination was the peach forest that the First Mercenary Group was responsible for reclaiming.

I heard that there are still dangerous mutant beasts in Taolin. I don’t know why, but the discussion above last night also opened Taolin to the public. Today, a few more buses going to Taolin were added, so there are still empty seats left.

Shen Tangtang and Lin Daiyu paid the fare and squeezed into the bus.

Just as Shen Tangtang was feeling lucky that she didn’t meet Bai Yanjun today, she saw a figure rushing out from behind the tree at the city gate and took a closer look.

Wow, it’s Bai Yanjun again, the male lead.

Shen Tangtang looked at Lin Daiyu with something hard to say.

Lin Daiyu was a little confused by Shen Tangtang’s inexplicable look, and asked puzzledly: “Tangtang, what’s wrong?”
