Chapter 21 – Unexpected

The three men quickly came to the window on the west side. Zhang Yun skillfully tied the rope provided by Su Ruizhe to something. Then he let Su Ruizhe and Song Chengshu climb down first, then he climbed down slowly, and finally cut the rope back to them and got off smoothly.

But somebody was there at the exit. Of course, they couldn’t take the car out of the space and drive it. So they decided to go around the back. Who knew that while they were walking that they would run into a group of people.

These people are divided into six men and three women which was a total of nine people. They all had baseball bats, golf clubs, stool legs, and other tools, they should be nearby residents, apparently, they also came to the supermarket to find food. After seeing the group of three which Zhang Yun led, their eyes brightened. Zhang Yun’s body is very capable of fighting at a glance. The other two are weak, but they have knives in their hands, which should also be a good fighting force.

One of the men in a suit immediately went up to the front and said, “Are the three of you also here to collect food?”

Zhang Yun nodded irrefutably.

“Why don’t we go together? Xiao Wang is a cashier in this mall. Her husband is a security guard here. She is very familiar with this mall. We can find food together!” The suited man pointed to one of them.

They have already finished cleaning most of the mall, they did not intend to go back, so they told the story that someone had broken the glass of the mall and entered the mall in front of them.

“That’s all right. The mall is so big that they can’t take everything, right?” The man in the suit said with disdain, “Besides, the good things are in the back warehouse. Xiao Wang has keys. Let’s go in from the back and not bump into them.”

Having said that, if they refuse to go with them again, it will seem strange. After all, they are all out looking for food. It is doubtful not to take such a good opportunity to do so. More importantly, Su Ruizhe didn’t want to miss all of the materials in the supermarket warehouse. It’s just the beginning of the end apocalypse. Most people are still in shock and panic. But they will soon realize the lack of food and start searching for materials everywhere. He didn’t know if there will be such a large number of opportunities to gather up materials in the future. His previous life was so miserable that in this life, Su Ruizhe was so obsessed with collecting materials and other things.

Zhang Yun estimated the time when the zombies gathered. If they moved faster, they should have enough time to leave.

So the three men joined their team and followed them around the back door of the mall. A sturdy little man came up, took out the key and opened the back door. It seemed that he was the security guard.

The back door was quickly opened, but it was still dark inside. The man in the suit took a flashlight out of his trousers pocket and lit up the aisle. Under his leadership, a group of people quietly walked in and entered the warehouse on the second floor from the back stairs.

The key to the warehouse, which the security guard had, quickly opened the heavy lock and they entered.

Men in suits swept around the warehouse with flashlights and saw all kinds of materials neatly placed in front of them. Men in suits opened a box, turned out more than a dozen backpacks from inside, and gave everyone a bag. The security guard also took out a high-powered flashlight and put it on a box. You can barely see what is in front of you by the light of the flashlight.

“Get as much edible food as you can, not snacks or anything like that!” The man in the suit whispered.

The crowd nodded and dispersed.

Su Ruizhe quietly collected several boxes of instant noodles, candies, and biscuits, and then stuffed his backpack with sausages and water. Zhang Yun and Song Chengshu were the same. He concentrated on stuffing things into his backpack. Anyway, he still had to do it. He could not go out empty-handed.

But even if these people want to empty the warehouse, their backpacks are not that big so the suited man carries his packed backpack behind him, opens a bag of lunch meat and gulps it down and was carrying two bags of rice in his hand.

At this moment, a very tragic cry spread throughout the supermarket, which shocked several people who were collecting materials.

“What was that?” Someone asked in a trembling voice.

The man in the suit swallowed hard, and the whole room dared not to make a sound.

However, the scream just now is like opening a switch. The scream of pain and the urgent cry for help come and go.

Apparently, the group coming in from the front had a zombie…

They didn’t know how long after that, the screams finally stopped, and a chaotic footstep from far came towards them.

“Lock the door!” The man in the suit snapped.

“What…?” Someone looked at him in shock. It was supposed to be a living person running in their direction.

“Who knows if the man was bitten by a zombie? Even if not, what if there were a lot of zombies behind him? We can’t risk it!”

When the man’s voice dropped, the woman named Xiao Wang’s hands shook and locked the door of the warehouse.

The chaotic footsteps soon came to the door. The man tried to open the door of the warehouse, but the door was locked back. No matter how hard he tried, he could not open it.

The man began to slap the door hard and hurriedly said, “Who’s in there!? Is there anyone in there?! Open the door! Help!”

The voice was supposed to be a young man, but everyone in the warehouse was silent and no one answered his call for help.

Then heavy footsteps appeared at the other end of the aisle, and the man’s cry for help stopped abruptly, replaced by a rush of breathing, which was particularly clear in the quiet space.

“Ah!” The man kicked the door hard and then rushed out with a loud roar.

Then there was a violent crash, with the murmur of the zombie…

Time seems to slow down by 10,000 times, every second goes by very slowly. When the sound of beating on the door sounds again outside, Xiao Wang standing at the door trembles and her legs are soft and she collapses on the ground.

“Open the door… Please… Open the door…” The door was slapped at the bottom. The man was supposed to be sitting on the ground at the moment. The despair and pain in his voice were moving.

Everyone throws subtle glances at the man in the suit. The man in the suit’s face turns blue, but he still clenches his teeth without saying a word.

Finally, Zhang Yun strode to the door, opened the insurance lock, opened the door a little, and quickly grabbed the outsider’s arm, dragged him in, and then quickly closed the door. Zhang Yun’s heart is still not so hard. It can’t hold on when the other side is so tenacious.

The young man who was dragged into the room was still a little stunned. He was still sitting on the ground, wearing a shirt that had been dyed red by blood. He could not see the original color at all. His hair was messy and he looked like a young college student.

“He’s hurt!” Suddenly someone pointed at the wound in the man’s leg and gave a low cry of horror.

The author has something to say:

[Small theatre on the street]

Su Xiaozhe: Supermarket! Attention, everybody! Don’t smash, grab and burn, and take materials in a civilized way. Do you understand?

Zhang Xiaoyun: Listen to my wifey!

Song Chengshu: Do I dare to express my opinion?! Do I dare?!

Su Xiaozhe: Instant noodles, yes please. Biscuits, take it! Water, take!… Okay, that’s about it. (＾＿＾)

Zhan Xiaoyun: No, there’s something else! It’s very important!

Su Xiaozhe:??? What?

Zhan Xiaoyun: Small umbrella and chrysanthemum brand lubricant! This is related to our happy life, indispensable!

Su Xiaozhe: →_→

Song Chengshu: I don’t think I need to eat any instant noodles and biscuits. This bowl of dog food can last three days!

Thank Jali and Jessie for these chapters! Like one of the comments said, ‘Triple J’s’! XD

I always get so angry when people try not to help others like that! If it was me in that type of situation then I would have been angry and sad that they don’t even wish to save me! But at least our ML is a good guy and hopefully, the injury isn’t a zombie bite!

Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter because I certainly did and the little theater is hilarious! I love how ML didn’t forget the lube!

But me a if you can!
