Chapter 18 Set off again
Perhaps everyone was too scared, or perhaps Yu Yao was too reassuring.
In short, although everyone had some complaints about the "injured" Luo Mei, they still couldn't help but follow Yu Yao into the sales office.
After all, they know how to choose between one zombie and countless zombies outside!
......
Yu Yao didn't care at all about what happened afterward.
After helping Luo Mei into the sales office, he single-handedly dealt with the few zombies inside who rushed towards him upon smelling the scent of living people.
Then he went straight to the VIP room on the second floor and rudely closed the door, refusing entry to anyone else.
Zhao Han stared at the tightly closed door and stomped her foot angrily. "Yu Yao is really something, she doesn't give us any face at all!"
Fang Lianjiao comforted her, "Maybe she's afraid her friend will hurt us. Don't be angry. This place is so big, we're sure there's somewhere to rest."
Tan He also said, "That's right, her friend is a ticking time bomb, we should avoid him if possible. Come on, let's see if there's a better lounge."
With that, he pulled Zhao Han along and started looking for a room.
Zhao Han glanced at Ji Yan subconsciously, wanting to pull her hand away, but she couldn't manage it, so she simply gave up.
Right now, Tan He is the one who treats her the best in the whole team. If she angers him, what will happen if no one takes care of her?
......
lounge.
Yu Yao helped Luo Mei to the sofa in the lounge and said helplessly, "Why scare them? Aren't you afraid they'll assassinate you?"
Luo Mei raised her chin, her eyes filled with disdain, "Hmph, let them try!"
Yu Yao glanced at her but did not respond.
Luo Mei chuckled, her eyes shining.
"Isn't it because I don't want them to get involved? That little white lotus is obviously no good. With her around, how can we live? And all those people behind her, aren't they all just here to find free bodyguards? They're all ugly but have such high hopes! With me here, they can forget about it!"
"Just ignore them."
How could Yu Yao not know what those people were thinking?
However, she is a very cold-hearted person. She would never risk her life for someone she has no connection with, nor would she be morally coerced.
If you're thinking of making a move on her, you're really making a mistake.
The two chatted and ate something comfortably in the lounge, then leaned back on the sofa and closed their eyes to rest.
Luo Mei, in particular, suffered a loss of mental strength and needed to rest and recover properly.
Fortunately, she recovered very well.
By the next morning, I was basically fine.
But in order to scare the others, she pretended to be seriously injured and barely breathing.
Yu Yao also mischievously sponsored a box of face powder, making Luo Mei's disguise even more convincing.
The moment Luo Mei appeared, those who had been quietly observing felt their hearts sink.
However, there were also some who were bolder, such as a man and a woman, who were the same two people who had previously lived in B-3.
Upon seeing Yu Yao, the woman quickly pulled the refined-looking uncle carrying two loaves of bread along with her.
He said to Yu Yao, "Hello, little sister. My name is Lian Qiao. I heard from your classmates that your surname is Yu. May I call you little sister Yu?"
Luo Mei's gaze turned slightly cold as she stared intently at Lian Qiao, causing Lian Qiao's heart to skip a beat.
"This, little sister, please don't look at me like that. We just want to make friends with you. I've awakened a special ability that allows me to condense golden cones to kill those...those monsters."
As she spoke, her tone became noticeably more confident, as if she was certain that Yu Yao would soon look at her with admiration.
Unexpectedly, what he got in return was Luo Mei's light laughter.
"Sister is so amazing! Keep up the good work killing zombies to protect your handsome uncle!"
Yesterday, when Luo Mei was bored, she overheard some gossip outside and learned that this handsome uncle was a high-ranking government official before the apocalypse.
And this woman named Lian Qiao was his mistress.
Originally a gentle, considerate, and understanding woman, she ended up switching identities with a man after the apocalypse.
She became a superhuman, while her former sugar daddy remained an ordinary person.
Therefore, the way the two interacted changed imperceptibly.
Upon hearing the deeper meaning in Luo Mei's words, the refined middle-aged man beside Lian Qiao paused for a moment, a complex expression flashing across his eyes.
Then, she quickly regained her composure and handed the bread in her hand to Yu Yao and Luo Mei, saying, "Thank you. This is a small token of our appreciation from Qiao Qiao and me. We hope you won't find it offensive."
Even Qiao said, "I don't know if you've had breakfast yet. We only have these two pieces of bread left. Please don't mind them."
Yu Yao refused outright, "Since these are the last two, keep them for yourself."
Lian Qiao smiled gently and waved her hand, saying, "It's okay, let's eat. At worst, we can go out together to find some supplies."
That was a beautiful remark. Luo Mei chuckled, clearly amused by her own anger.
"You're actually quite nice. While everyone else is trying to get something for nothing, you're thinking of giving us two loaves of bread to try?"
Lian Qiao's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "No, no, no, you misunderstood. I just said it casually, I didn't mean anything by it."
"Oh, really? We understand. We appreciate the gesture, but you can keep the bread for yourself," Luo Mei replied casually, then looked at Yu Yao.
"A-Yao? Shall we go?"
"Ah."
Neither of them took the two loaves of bread. Instead, under the watchful eyes of more than a dozen people, they turned and went downstairs, swaggering away from the sales office.
......
The car she drove yesterday was severely damaged by acid rain, but Yu Yao didn't want to flaunt her wealth, so she simply got into the broken-down car.
Sitting in the driver's seat was still Luo Mei, who was used to speeding in all sorts of situations and whose driving skills were much better than Yu Yao's.
Just then, Ji Yan knocked on the car window, and after Yu Yao rolled down the window, he leaned in and handed her a walkie-talkie.
He said, "We heard on the radio that a safe zone has been established in Lincheng, but the signal is not very good, and we couldn't hear the exact location. However, there will be search and rescue soldiers. If you or we encounter them, we hope we can remind them."
Upon hearing this, Yu Yao lowered her head and fiddled with the walkie-talkie in her hand for a moment, then asked, "What is the maximum communication distance?"
"Optimal within 10 kilometers, already debugged."
Ye Zi'ang's father had a habit of collecting these things, and they were all the best.
Ye Ziang often mocked his collecting hobby, but unexpectedly, it saved their lives one after another.
Yu Yao nodded. "Okay, we're going to Xinxin Shopping Mall."
Ji Yan smiled slightly and replied gently, "Okay, we won't bother you."
"Ah."
As soon as Yu Yao finished speaking, Luo Mei stepped on the gas and disappeared.
This left those who wanted to catch up dumbfounded, and they could only grit their teeth and chase after them.
However, Luo Mei was too fast and reckless.
If a zombie blocks the way, the car will smash it directly, and even if the car is covered in blood, rotten flesh and brains, it will not slow down.
Despite the impactful scene, Luo Mei felt no discomfort whatsoever; on the contrary, she felt a subtle excitement.
The two of them drove recklessly for half an hour before finally seeing the Xinxin Shopping Mall building.
Xinxin Shopping Mall occupies a huge area, with six floors above and below ground, and many shops on the outer ring.
Logically speaking, such a place should have been overrun by zombies long ago.
The good thing is that most of the buildings in this area are newly completed high-rises that are still under renovation, so there isn't a lot of foot traffic.
Luo Mei parked the car at the entrance of the mall, and the two of them got out of the car.
There weren't many zombies around, but there were some too.
Because they could smell the scent of living flesh and blood, several zombies would occasionally roar and pounce at them, but Yu Yao and Luo Mei easily dealt with them all.
Just as Yu Yao had predicted, Luo Mei was extremely skilled and ruthless.
A Nepalese kukri in her hand was like a ghost, each strike killing a small zombie.
It looks just like a ferocious, murderous beast!
......
Before entering the mall, Yu Yao checked the situation inside and found that there were zombies inside, as well as a few survivors.
Luo Mei also noticed this, and while keeping watch on her surroundings, she leaned over and whispered in Yu Yao's ear, "There are quite a few zombies inside, and there are also living people."
"Okay, let's avoid them and go to the underground supermarket to get some supplies before we leave."
"okay."
Luo Mei responded and carefully stepped forward, pushing open the glass door of the shopping mall.
