Cheng Cheng couldn’t help but laugh at the joyous scene. Bai Yanhui, who was sitting opposite her, immediately winked at her.
Her smile disappeared, and she looked away.
Bai Yanhui was still rolling his eyes. When he was glared at by Xiaoyuan’s big, black eyes, he could not help but rub his nose and finally calmed down.
After a sumptuous brunch, the metahuman’s desire for meat was finally suppressed.
Then, he talked about going to Shichang City.
“Shichang City?” Bai Yanhui, who wanted to find a piece of dental floss to pick his teeth, was stunned. “My family has several factories there. My father invested in and built the industrial park over there.”
Everyone couldn’t help but look at him in a new light. He was really rich.
“But can you take your hand off my orange?”
Bai Yanhui immediately put on a posture as if he was in a business negotiation and pointed at the orange in Tang Mingqi’s hand. “Mingqi, give me this orange and I will give you a few factories. No, I will give you that industrial park. How does it sound? It’s a good deal, right?”
Tang Mingqi looked at him with a smile.
“Why don’t we sign a contract?”
Tang Mingqi peeled the orange and carefully removed the white silk from the valve. He even broke it into pieces and placed it in front of Tang Susu.
Bai Yanhui watched as the girl casually picked it up and ate it without a care. His heart was bleeding. He had almost forgotten what an orange tasted like! Bai Yanhui VS Tang Susu, round two. Bai Yanhui’s defeat!
At 1:50 p.m., the family of six, Cheng Cheng, Bai Yanhui, and their daughter, set off for the meeting hall.
When she reached the door, Tang Susu was surprised to find that it was packed with people. They were all ordinary people who had heard that they could go and collect supplies.
“Sir, my family is going to eat grass soon. Take me along! 1 won’t hold you back. I know how to use a weapon to kill zombies!”
Even the two stall owners who sold Tang Susu gold and clothes were there. When they saw her, their eyes lit up, and they hurriedly squeezed forward to talk to her.
But when more people saw Tang Susu, they all turned around and swarmed over her.
“Miss Tang!”
“Miss Tang, you’re here!”
“Take me along!”
There were even a few young children and old people who kneeled on the ground. Some had tears, while others had bitter expressions on their faces.
“Miss Tang, we’re willing to die from starvation, but the children must eat!”
The Tang family stood in front of Tang Susu to protect her. Even though she was skilled and had two rare abilities, the habit of protecting her had been carved into their bones.
Tang Susu noticed that a little boy around ten years old was kneeling on the ground, holding an even younger boy. He looked only around three or four years old, but he was sleeping in his brother’s arms. Even though the surroundings were noisy, there was no movement at all.
She frowned slightly. “Take these two along. We can talk more inside.”
“Miss Tang!” the group of people shouted, but they didn’t dare to stop them or get any closer. They gradually opened up a path for the group to walk in. Their eyes gradually filled with despair.
It wasn’t that none of them had gone out to look for supplies for the past few days, but it was already getting difficult for them to deal with the T2s, let alone the increasing number of T3S.
As a result, they often went out with more than ten people, but it was considered an alright result if one or two of them came back in the end.
After the survivor returned, they were unwilling to go out again. They would rather starve to death than be eaten by zombies or become a monster…
After Tang Susu went in, she saw that everyone seemed to have arrived. Coincidentally, the two doctors were also there.
She gestured. “Please give these children a look.”
The older boy immediately perked up and was about to kneel down to thank her out of habit.
“There’s no need to. A lot of people in the shelter have the same symptoms.” The two doctors shook their heads. They had shaken their heads more than they ever did in their past decades of practice.
“Because they have no clean water source to drink from, they simply drink boiled river water. It’s fine at first, but after a long time, all kinds of symptoms start to appear. There are mild cases of vomiting and diarrhea, there are also some serious cases with high fevers that won’t come down, and finally, they’ll all become severely infected…”
The rest was self-evident.
“All! All!” The boy pulled his hoarse throat and made a string of sounds. Tang Susu then realized that he was actually mute.
At this moment, he knelt in front of her and kept kowtowing to her. Tang Susu’s usually cold heart softened.
Mr. and Mrs. Tang couldn’t help but feel sad when they thought of their children being reduced to such a state.
They didn’t know if their parents were still alive. Otherwise, their hearts would definitely ache if they saw this!
“Stop. Your brother has passed away. My condolences!” After Tang Mingqi confirmed with the two doctors, he reminded him coldly, wanting him to face this fact.
It was impossible for the boy not to know, but it was only at this moment that he truly accepted it. His entire body trembled, and tears instantly flowed down silently, washing over his dirty face, and leaving a white mark.
The people surrounding the conference table and standing behind them all watched this scene silently.
The expedition couldn’t be delayed any longer!
