Chapter 34
Ji Zan raised an eyebrow. “Did you ever think about how you guys would get back when you came here?”
“Fine, you’re courting death, aren’t you?!” Wang Tianba immediately cursed. “Kill this bastard! Run over this son of a bitch for me.” With his order, the crowd immediately moved to the side and a few black cars rushed into the courtyard.
Ji Zan swiftly dodged and leaped onto the car that Fu Shinan had fortified. He then shouted, “Get in the car, everyone!”
The group quickly and agilely got into the car.
Seeing that none of them were hit, Wang Tianba couldn’t help but curse, “You’re all fucking useless. Run them over!” He then pointed towards the building. “Go in and search. Capture all the women, and kill any men! Don’t let any supplies go to waste either.”
Yu Jian and the others immediately rushed into the courtyard, only to hear an ear-piercing boom as Ji Zan rammed into them. Yu Jian was shocked. He lifted his leg and jumped onto the steps. Two others who didn’t have time to escape were sent flying and had their bones broken.
Although Fu Shinan knew about the brutality of the apocalypse, she couldn’t help but turn her face away when witnessing such a scene.
Xiao Chang’an was not afraid. He clenched his small fists and cheered, “Uncle, you can do it!”
Meanwhile, Ji Zan blocked the entrance, using full throttle whenever anyone attempted to charge at him. In just ten minutes, all of Wang Tianba’s cars were completely wrecked. Ji Zan’s men quickly got out of the car and captured all of Wang Tianba’s people. Realizing the situation was unfavorable, Wang Tianba immediately ordered a retreat, but it wasn’t as easy as coming in.
Ji Zan stepped on the accelerator again and chased after Wang Tianba and the others.
Once they were out of the range of the surveillance cameras, Fu Shinan couldn’t help but worry. She hoped Ji Zan wouldn’t fall into someone else’s trap and end up being lured away from the base. She anxiously waited for ten minutes until Ji Zan and the others returned to the courtyard, finally relieving her anxiety.
At that moment, Chen Zhou came upstairs.
Fu Shinan quickly stood up. “I’m sorry, we didn’t ask for your permission to come in.”
“It’s fine,” Chen Zhou flashed a smile, revealing his small white teeth. “Mr. Ji said that in the base, Miss Fu can feel free to do as she pleases, as long as you don’t leave. You can go anywhere.”
Fu Shinan smiled back. She knew it was just their courtesy; she couldn’t really do as she pleased. “We should be heading back now. Oh, by the way, are there any injured people? I’m a doctor. If there’s a need, feel free to come find me.”
“They’re all minor injuries. We can handle them ourselves.”
“Alright, we’ll go out first.” Fu Shinan carried Xiao Chang’an and left. Cao Yong followed closely behind.
Cao Yong suddenly spoke, “It seems that Mr. Ji has some real skills. His men are agile, unlike typical bodyguards.”
Fu Shinan raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a smile. “Mr. Cao seems to be quite knowledgeable about bodyguards?”
Cao Yong forced a laugh. “I’m just an accountant. What do I know about those things? I was just making an observation. Living here is not bad, considering we have food and shelter. It’s better than being in a hospital.”
Fu Shinan was not as optimistic as him.”This is only temporary. It won’t be long before the food goes bad. Who knows how many man-made disasters and natural disasters are waiting for us.”
Cao Yong nodded. ” Now that communications are down, no one knows what’s going on in other places. If it’s a national disaster, we can only hold on for a year at most. Next year, we will face a food shortage. I hope the natural disaster will stop here and give us a chance to catch our breath. Otherwise, we really won’t be able to survive…”
“I hope so.” Fu Shinan exhaled deeply.
In these past few days, apart from a bit of sunburn, everything else has been fine, and there haven’t been any extreme weather conditions. However, this world is destined to be restless. Before long, the sky darkened and heavy rain started to pour down. The rain was mixed with hailstones the size of adult fists, pounding on the iron window panels with loud and terrifying sounds. If one of those hailstones were to hit someone’s head, it would be more than just a big bruise—it could be fatal.
Initially, it was thought that the heavy rain would stop after a while, but it unexpectedly continued for two weeks. The first floor of the base was completely submerged, and water started seeping into the second floor. Everyone had to move to the third floor for shelter. The drainage system in the entire An Town had completely failed, and the iron panels outside the windows were battered and uneven, showing the ferocity of the hailstorm.
What was even more puzzling was that during these two weeks, the zombies didn’t actively attack humans, although it wasn’t because they were afraid of water. All the zombies stood in the rain, moaning as if they were enjoying some kind of carnival…
After half a month, the sky finally cleared. Just as everyone was waiting for the water to recede so they could go out and find some supplies, the zombies suddenly mobilized in a collective movement.
