Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

The guy in the baseball cap froze in place, clearly hearing the nonsense from the few people opposite him. He shook his head and said, “This is the end of the world, but at the very least, we should maintain some basic morality, right? We kindly invited you to join the safety base, and not only do you refuse, but you also want to cut us a deal?”

“The law can’t control this, and even heaven won’t tolerate it!”

The guy in the baseball cap was visibly agitated.

“Don’t give me that hypothetical crap. Let me tell you, in less than twenty-four hours since this time yesterday, we’ve encountered three waves of bandits. The first wave, just like you, claimed to have a safe zone and wanted to take our supplies. The second wave directly took over the store I used to run and even abused my employees!”

“The last wave, just about an hour ago, took advantage of the chaos to steal one of our cars! So, enough with the bullshit. Now you have two choices: either leave all the supplies in the car and get lost, or leave the car and take the supplies with you. Choose!”

Zhang Su didn’t leave any room for negotiation. Ever since he saw Zhao Xue get abused, his heart had turned cold. Adding today’s car theft to that, he realized that in this world today, you’d better kill anyone you meet; out of a hundred people you kill, it’s unlikely that more than ten would actually be good people!

The people with the baseball cap looked at each other, finding it hard to believe Zhang Su’s group’s story was so convoluted if it wasn’t made up.

He looked troubled and said, “Bro, we just came out from the safety base to find supplies; there’s almost nothing in the car…”

“Then we thank you for the car; we happen to need one. You can leave now.”

Zhang Su waved his hand at them, meaning if there’s nothing in the car, just leave the car and go.

Bam!

A woman who hadn’t spoken all along punched the car door angrily, “You’re simply pushing it too far! This behavior is no different from daylight robbery, you’re nothing but bandits!”

“Bandits or not, we don’t have time to waste with you. Three seconds to grab your stuff and leave, or else… Old Tan, the shark fin on that red Audi!”

Zhang Su pointed to the middle of the road.

The group with the baseball cap didn’t understand what Zhang Su meant until they saw the large woman across from them holding a crossbow twist her body and shoot an arrow with a whoosh. The shark fin on top of the overturned A3 not far away was shot and exploded!

!!!

It wasn’t as exaggerated as hitting a willow leaf in a hundred steps, but with that accuracy, they had no chance of escaping. Two crossbows meant two lives could be taken at will.

When the three of them looked back at Tan Huajun, they found her reloading her crossbow arrow, looking quite clumsy, which was extremely incongruous!

“We definitely don’t have five boxes of instant noodles… We only have two boxes of eggs and three bottles of water. The water is our supply from today’s trip to gather resources.”

The guy in the baseball cap said gloomily.

Zhang Su chuckled, “I’m not unreasonable. Look, as long as you show sincerity, I will gladly accept it. But for safety’s sake, throw your weapons over here first, and then have that woman bring over the eggs and water!”

Faced with a bandit-like leader and subordinates who never miss their mark, resistance was futile. The guys in the baseball cap obediently did as they were told.

“These eggs are for the kids to get some nutrition, wish you get diarrhea after eating them!”

The woman placed the two boxes, a total of sixty eggs, into Zhang Su’s hands, cursing venomously.

“To get diarrhea is a blessing, at least it proves we have something to eat. Then, I wish you three a great journey and a safe return!”

Zhang Su handed the eggs over to Zheng Xinyu next to him, then gestured to the guy in the baseball cap in the driver’s seat of the Pajero to leave.

The guy in the baseball cap said nothing, his lips pursed. Once his companions got in the car, he stepped on the gas pedal and left the scene.

“It’s just bad luck, damn it, how can there be such bastards!”

After the Pajero drove some distance, the woman in the passenger seat’s eyes reddened and she vented her anger on the seat belt, pulling on it relentlessly.

“No one is born a villain. If what that guy said was true, it’s already good luck that we left with the car. Thank goodness…”

“Oh, come on. That guy was definitely born rotten. Damn, just by looking at him, you can tell he’s a bully. Before the disaster, Nurse Zhong would never be with a guy like that. It’s definitely because of desperation after the disaster!”

Deputy Director Chen interrupted the guy in the baseball cap, seething with rage.

“Old Chen, it’s not like I mean to, but seriously, at a time like this, how can you still think about picking up women? Can’t you be a bit more ambitious?” The guy in the baseball cap looked at the rearview mirror, utterly speechless.

Deputy Director Chen snorted, “Damn it, if I meet that group again, I’ll definitely make them pay!”

“Make them pay? Damn, I was really scared just now that the fat lady would shoot us. Do you think those two crossbows were just for show? Honestly, I’m quite thankful they didn’t kill us. Have you forgotten what happened to Xiaoma?”

Mentioning Xiaoma, the three of them fell silent.

“Stop dwelling on what just happened; we need to find weapons quickly!”

The guy in the baseball cap was rather helpless, his mind trying to figure out where to find some handy weapons, otherwise gathering resources would be tough.

Of course, Zhang Su wouldn’t know what happened in the Pajero, but he was also a bit frustrated because Yu Qing was confused by his behavior.

“Brother Su, I know you’re the leader of the team, and we all listen to you. But was it really necessary to do that just now? Those three weren’t a threat to us, and I don’t think they were lying. What if those eggs really were for kids to boost their health?”
