Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fred and Anne immediately picked up a box. The moment they picked it up, the bread inside dropped out from the big hole at the bottom of the box.

“Wh-what?!”

Fred looked at the bread scattered all over the ground in despair and threw the box away. Anne did not care about her image and knelt on the ground to pick up a piece of bread.

The bread that was originally packed in a vacuum had a hole in it and dried up. The bread inside had also been bitten by a few rats.

Annie’s eyes were empty.

The ground was covered in rat droppings and dust. Annie sat on the ground and mechanically picked up one bag after another. All of them had holes in them and the bread had been bitten a few times, the black rat droppings on the bread seemed to be mocking them. Annie’s vision blurred, and tears welled up in her eyes.

“What we sacrificed our lives for… is this it?”

Tears fell on the ground. Annie threw the bread in her hands onto the ground angrily. She stood up and stomped on it!

“F*ck this! So many people died, and this is what we got after risking our lives?! Ah?!”

“Annie, calm down!”

Fredwas also very upset, but as a man, he could not cry. He only patted Annie’s back gently to comfort the sad and angry Annie.

“Enough!”

Qin Yang stomped the struggling mouse under his feet to death. The mouse’s head was directly stomped by Qin Yang until its brain was sprayed out. Qin Yang kicked the mouse’s corpse away.

“What’s the use of crying? If you have time, you might as well stand up. Let’s count how many supplies these mice have eaten and how many are still intact.”

Qin Yang said coldly.

Although he was also very unhappy, the atmosphere of sadness was useless for survival.

“Yes, Brother Qin Yang is right. Annie, you go and send up the bald uncle who was injured by the trap. Also, ask everyone upstairs to come down to help collect the bodies of the two people who were killed and count the supplies.”

Annie nodded at Fred’s words. She stood up, wiped her tears, and walked out of the warehouse.

Seeing Annie walk out of the warehouse, and after the elevator went up, Fred finally heaved a sigh of relief from his heavy chest. Fred held his head with an ugly expression on his face.

“Damn it!”

Fred suddenly jumped up and raised his leg to kick at the shelf, causing the shelf to shake for a while. More rats fled under the shelf in fear. Seeing these rats, Fred widened his eyes in anger and raised his leg to step on them, under the crazy stomping, dozens of rats were trampled to death. When they ran out of strength, they held their knees and stopped panting.

“Before coming down, I told those two people. I said that there is hope for us to survive in the warehouse. Even if we have to pay the price of our lives, we have to die in order to prolong everyone’s lives. I told them this and encouraged them to come down, but… but!”

The rims of Fred’s eyes were red. At this moment, the eight-foot-tall man was squatting on the ground like a helpless child. His eyes were hazy with tears.

He was the hope of the survivors in the apartment building and the leader of everyone. With such a heavy burden on his shoulders, he did not dare to show a hint of laziness or weakness. He was afraid that his pessimism would affect the survivors’ thoughts about tomorrow.

However, the current situation was too much for Fred. He was already carrying too many lives and expectations on his shoulders, the pain of deceiving the dead was like a needle piercing through the tough heart of this strong man.

It was only in front of someone as strong as Qin Yang that Fred dared to show such a weak side of himself.

Qin Yang walked behind Fred and patted his shoulder. Only men understood men the best. At this moment, any words of comfort were useless.

“I’m sorry, I lost my composure.”

After taking a few deep breaths, Fred finally adjusted his state of mind and stood up.

“It’s okay, come on. There will always be hope.”

Qin Yang did not say anything, as if he did not see anything to protect Felic’s self-esteem.

Qin Yang climbed onto the shelf, picked up a box on the top floor, and threw it down. Fredcaught it and put the box on the ground.

“Wait!”

Fred was suddenly pleasantly surprised. He found that the box was not damaged!

“There are more, catch!”

Qin Yang threw down a few more boxes!

Fred caught them in a flurry, box after box. They were not damaged.

After Qin Yang threw a few boxes down, he stood on the shelf and looked at the complete boxes with a rare smile after the apocalypse. In Qin Yang’s eyes, these boxes were even happier than getting lots of gold!

“Hahaha, Fred! As I thought, these fat rats don’t need to worry about food and clothing. There is food everywhere, so they are too lazy to climb so high! The boxes on top are almost all intact!”

Hearing Qin Yang’s words, Fred opened his mouth wide and did not make a sound for a long time. Finally, he shouted excitedly!

The flame of hope for survival was ignited again!

The deaths of those people were not in vain, but meaningful!

Ring!

The sound of the elevator notification rang, and the elevator door slowly opened. Annie’s expression was not very good. She did not know how to respond to the gazes of the survivors upstairs. Annie did not dare to look directly at those hopeful gazes. A few people came to clean up downstairs. When the elevator door slowly opened, Annie walked out of the elevator with her head lowered. However, she bumped into Fred who was rushing over!

“Annie, there’s food. We’re saved!!”

Fred, who was in his forties, was as excited as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenager. He directly pulled Annie to the door of the warehouse. Qin Yang was sitting on a box to rest. In front of him was a box that looked good on the outside, he opened the sealed box.

Annie came closer and looked at the packed wheat flour inside. Annie covered her mouth.

“Sigh, you guys can carry the rest. The higher the shelf level, the more grains that haven’t been ruined.”

Qin Yang stood up and stretched. His mood had never been better.

“Ugh!”

A few women outside saw the white-collar workers on the ground who were dismembered and retched. They wore gloves and carried black bags to collect the bodies. Annie only said that someone had died and they were mentally prepared, but they did not expect the corpses to be broken into pieces like this. While holding back their nausea, they picked up the corpses on the ground with their hands and threw them into the black plastic bags.

Qin Yang went outside and sat on the sofa that was used to block the shutter door. Hearing the screams of the zombies outside the shutter door, he leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

Although he had given them all to carry, Qin Yang did not choose to go up and have a good sleep. Instead, he sat here and rested. However, he was actually supervising them to prevent the survivors from stealing food, or there would be a fight..
