"what do you mean?"

Facing their questions, I was a little unsure whether I was mocking the escalation of the incident or smiling bitterly. Because I could feel an inexplicable pressure welling up in my heart. Every time I walked into the city, every time I came into contact with someone

Every incident will put a brick in my heart. From the prisoners at the beginning to these plunderers, who knows what other people are still thinking about making trouble in the city?

I don’t want to be joking, but if there are really troops rioting in the city now, who can stop them? If things were really that easy to deal with, the people in the parliament would have picked up their things and left.

"Those who can participate in the battle are not necessarily soldiers. But those who participate in the soldiers must be civilians." I explained to them in a roundabout way.

"Just like us." Wei Lao pointed at me and said.

I pointed at Wei Lao with my chin in response. Then I added: "If someone wanted to organize a small gang or society before, it is not impossible. Every settlement here can slowly expand.

With the same scale, there must be many civilians with armed strength."

This would be a headache. If the people in the whole city were divided into various factions and plundered each other, that would be fine. If those who could fight were divided into militiamen, then the surviving people in the whole city could become militiamen.

.

"And organizing a group of militia is not an easy task." Wei Lao continued the previous topic, dragging his chin with his hand and added: "Either it is a mercenary-like organization that works for benefits, or it is a private armed force.

.If there are other possibilities..."

"Government departments, or groups with certain financial resources." Lao Lan also followed suit.

I shook my head, still holding the Type 56 automatic rifle without bullets in my hand.

"Maybe it's a religious group..." Wei Lao continued to speculate on his own.

"Okay, okay..."

I interrupted him and threw the gun into the arsenal, "That would be much more troublesome. Not to mention other forces, we can't even protect ourselves now."

One thing I have to say is, indeed, we even have trouble eating. We have to think about other things too much. It’s really hard to think about it. If I had the time, I would go find something to eat.

"But we will always encounter them. They are a whole army." Wei Lao said behind me, pointing at the back of my head.

"We don't have the ability to deal with them, man, what are you thinking? Do you want a few of us to use these weapons to deal with their company of one gun per person?" I turned my head, knocked on my vest, and raised it.

sound.

Mr. Wei raised his hands to show his disdain for arguing with me, "You have the final say, boss..."

At this time, Yana, who was staying aside, spoke. She leaned forward, as if she was afraid that we wouldn't hear what she said: "So, what should we do next?"

Good question, that's what I have to say for now.

"Check the ammunition!" I said loudly to everyone in the cabin: "We check the weapons, check our ammunition, and we must be ready to fight those guys at any time."

"Ah! We have to fight again?" The girl complained, her tone not retaining any dissatisfaction with us fighting back and forth.

"This is the prerequisite for self-preservation." I corrected, "Next, we will continue to search for food and water resources in this area. Try to avoid frontal fighting on this section of the road, unless someone can't help it."

"So this time we went to search for food seriously?" Lao Lan complained to me.

"You said the same thing last time, right?" Wei Lao agreed.

"This time is different." I emphasized. "Due to geographical issues, we can't find anything good there. Except for weapons, we are just wasting time."

I don’t want to continue to waste time dealing with those fools. Now that we are in a more important area, we can take time to search for food nearby. “Whether it is a store, supermarket, kitchen, or even a garbage dump, we are here.

You need to search carefully." I said half-jokingly.

"We don't have that much food storage anymore. If we want to get enough food to support the four of us, we have to empty out an entire store." Wei Lao said.

"Then move them out." I said resolutely, "Let's start taking action. Let's find a place to park the armored vehicle. It's at the car wash shop in the alley in front. Quick, quick! Get moving, guys!" I urged.

road.

A group of us jumped out of the armored vehicle. Before that, each of us was ready to be armed. Lao Lan and Wei Lao replaced the ammunition with new ones, while I loaded the magazine, carried the backpack, and checked the protective panels.

Afterwards, he put on his tactical vest and walked out of the armored vehicle with his gun in hand.

But I found that there was still one person who was not armed, and that was the northern girl named Yana.

"Hey, ma'am!" I called her.

"What's wrong?" She turned her head, frowned and blinked.

I picked up an MBSS vest from the side of the equipment box and stuffed two three-level bulletproof PE plates into the vest. "Bring this with you!" I said, holding the vest and stuffing it into her hand.

"Why should I bring this thing?"

"Because bullets don't have eyes." I joked, then raised my index finger and returned to a serious tone, "That's just... for safety reasons."

"Concentrate! We have to hide! Guys!" I stabilized my vest and said to everyone.

The armored vehicle drove to the car wash, and then I found the body of the owner of the car wash inside, so I stole the key to the car wash and pulled down the rolling shutter door. This behavior now means a lot of things for us in the future.

We can only walk around on our own feet. But this is natural. If you drive around in an armored vehicle, you will be spotted sooner or later. We might as well search slowly on foot.

I swiped my index finger and ordered everyone to move towards the blockade area. The reason for going there is very simple, just because that is the blockade area, the blockade area after the explosion. To be specific, most of the roads there are

It is a pedestrian street, and it was blocked by the police after the explosion. There should not be many people getting involved with the materials inside. I believe there will be a lot of good things left nearby.

And this road section is not easy to walk, because it is one of the main traffic sections, and the traffic flow here is usually relatively large. But the problem occurs here. Now the vehicles near the blockade area are all blocked and turned into a garbage dump.

It's everywhere, and it's a mess. If we drive an armored vehicle in, it might be difficult to drive out.

But at least for us, these vehicles should be kept as bunkers.

Our first goal was to find small shops to search first. I walked around several shops at the intersection and found that all the shops that were open were empty, and the same was true in pharmacies. Of course, no one would let them go.

Walking through these small shops with open doors, whether it's the items inside or the money in the cashier, there's nothing bad about it.

However, we have searched three such stores in a row.

"Shit!" I cursed and threw the empty basket on the counter to the corner of the store, hitting other bottles and cans, causing a loud noise in the corner.

"What's wrong?" Wei Lao asked, turning his head to one side and stopping rummaging for things.

I sighed and raised my hands helplessly, "There is nothing here."

Of course there wouldn't be one here. If there were, wouldn't those people outside become fools? I scratched my head, stomped out of the store in annoyance, looked at the sun, sighed again, leaned against the tree on the roadside,

Squatted down.

"Did you find anything?" Lao Lan's voice came from behind me, but by the time it came out of the store and reached my ears, it was already very quiet.

"No……"

"This place is also empty..."

We are simply wasting time in a place like this, I thought to myself. Maybe the method we are looking for is not suitable. There is really not much need to go into these places with open doors. Everything inside that should be picked up has probably been picked up by others.

It's clean. If I want to find something that hasn't been touched, I guess only God will know where it is. If that doesn't work, I'll just go to the vegetable patch and pull out vegetables and radishes and fry them.

It's not impossible, right?

Then, I watched them lazily walk out one after another, with expressions like "I didn't find anything" on their faces.

"I think we are in the wrong place." Looking at their expressions, I couldn't help but suggest: "We should try those closed stores."

"What a good idea." Lao Lan replied without any change in his face, "Maybe there are some moldy hams in there that can be picked up."

"That's really bad," I looked at the shops on this street seriously, "then this place will really become a place where even rats hate coming."

"It's not impossible to try, but..." Wei Lao pointed at the rows of shops and said, "It might take a lot of time."

"So we have to try all the stores one by one? Are you serious?" Lao Lan's expression became a little exaggerated. He thought Wei Lao was joking.

"What else? That's what we're here to do." I clapped my hands and stood up, adding, "Since we're all here, right?"

"You have the final say..." Lao Lan waved his hand, expressing his casualness.

At this time, I had already arrived at the next store with the shutter door tightly closed. "Let's do it." I pulled the trigger of the 79 submachine gun, pointed the muzzle at the lock on the floor, and then opened it with squinted eyes.

One shot.

"Pang!" There was a gunshot, and along with the sound of the metal lock breaking, Lao Lan and Wei Lao pulled up the rolling shutter door.
Chapter completed!
