Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system
30 Angus' wrath
When Arnold told Angus and Zoe that David was looking for them, Angus was initially planning to refuse. However, when Arnold mentioned that David wanted to distribute some food to them, Angus hesitated.
Zoe persuaded, "Angus, why don't we go and see? You haven't eaten anything all day yesterday." Angus fell silent. Not only him, but Zoe hadn't eaten anything all day either.
Angus had originally planned to go outside today to see if he could find some food. However, when he looked out through the window in the morning, his heart sank. The streets were filled with wandering zombies, and there were dozens of visible zombies with the naked eye. If he were to go out now, he would likely be surrounded and torn apart by these zombies.
If things continued like this, he and Zoe would probably starve to death. "Fine, let's go and take a look," Angus finally decided after wrestling with his thoughts. Arnold breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two of them agreeing. Deep down, he hoped that everyone would come together and overcome the difficulties.
In his view, they were all in the same boat, and there was no need to create conflicts over trivial matters. Accompanied by Arnold, the two of them walked through the corridor and arrived at David's house. "David, Angus and Zoe are here," Arnold announced as he led them into the room.
As Angus stepped into David's house, his face immediately changed. He glanced around in astonishment, realizing that the room was piled high with food. Angus, who had been hungry all day, couldn't help but have a gleam in his eyes upon seeing the abundance of food. Zoe was equally astonished. Neither of them had any idea that David had hoarded so much food in his home.
David sat at the table and pushed a bag forward. Inside the bag were four packs of instant noodles and four sausages. David had carefully considered the quantity. Although it seemed like a considerable amount at first glance, it would only be enough to keep the two of them from going hungry. It wouldn't truly satisfy their hunger.
Normally, an adult would consume over 2,000 calories even if they were sitting idle all day, while these food items would provide a little over 1,000 calories when divided between the two of them. David spoke to them, "Given the current situation, I hope everyone can unite."
Angus looked at David, his expression slightly grim, his thoughts unknown. David continued, "I can let go of what happened yesterday, but I hope that in the future, you can follow my arrangements. If you agree, take this food. If you think it's unnecessary and want to go it alone, I won't force you." Angus clenched his fist, feeling torn inside. He did need food, but taking the food meant he would have to bow down to David.
It was even more unbearable than being slapped in the face. He didn't think he was weaker than David. in fact, he believed he was stronger in many aspects. Seeing a stunning beauty like Sally by David's side had already fueled his jealousy. Now, even the food was completely in David's hands. Zoe looked at Angus expectantly, waiting for his response. After a silence of about ten seconds, Angus suddenly relaxed his clenched fist.
"Fine, I agree," he said, walking up to David and picking up the bag of food.
David told him, "If there are no special circumstances, food will be distributed every morning at 7 o'clock. Remember to come and collect it."
Angus' face stiffened. "Understood." Seeing Angus's disgusted expression, David found it amusing.
He knew that Angus must be furious inside. Angus was a strong-willed person who cared about his reputation. Now he had to bow down to David for a few buckets of instant noodles, and in front of everyone. David knew that Angus wouldn't easily swallow his pride.
After Angus left, David said to Arnold and Sophie, "There's nothing else. I'll go back to my room for now."
Arnold asked, "David, do we have any plans for the future? Is there anything we should arrange?"
David thought for a moment. He had plenty of things to do next, but none that Arnold and Sophie could help with. "Not at the moment. Let's wait at home and see if the authorities will send rescue teams."
Of course, David was just saying that casually. He knew that rescue was unlikely. The official military was overwhelmed with their own tasks and had no spare capacity to save civilians.
Their priority was rescuing high-level officials, elites from various industries, and especially scientists in the fields of biology and virology.
After David left, Arnold sighed. "It seems that David is actually cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Even though Angus defies him like that, he doesn't take it to heart. Not everyone can have such tolerance."
Sophie also sighed. "Ah, I'm just worried about Zoe. Angus has a bad temper, and Zoe might suffer because of him."
David distributed to Arnold and Sophie one pack of biscuits, one chocolate bar, three buckets of instant noodles, a large bottle of water, a can of fruit, and a can of meat per day. They even worried that they wouldn't be able to finish it all. This wasn't exactly food rationing. But Angus and Zoe only had instant noodles to eat.
Arnold also sighed ,he knew that Angus had a problematic personality. Zoe was a girl with a good character, reliable and hardworking, and both Arnold and Sophie liked her. If it weren't for Zoe, Arnold wouldn't have spoken up for Angus yesterday.
In Angus' room... "Damn it, who does he think he is?" Angus kicked a chair, sending it flying five or six meters away. "He wants me to remember to come and collect it. Who does he think he is? The boss?"
Zoe spoke up, trying to persuade him. "Let it go, Angus. After all, it's their food. It's already generous of him to give us a portion." Even though Zoe was on Angus' side, she thought David had already done his best.
If David wanted to, he could completely ignore their well-being. After all, David didn't owe them anything. But Angus clearly didn't think so. He grabbed Zoe by the collar. "You're siding with him? Damn it, you're my woman, and you're taking his side?" He pushed Zoe to the ground. "Then get lost. Go with him. Why are you following me?"
Tears instantly welled up in Zoe's eyes. "Angus, that's not what I meant." She approached and grabbed Angus' hand, but he forcefully shook her off and pushed her to the ground again. "Leave me alone."
Angus grabbed the bag of food and walked into the bedroom, slamming the door shut and leaving Zoe outside alone. Zoe walked up to the door, trying to open it, but found it locked. She stood there, tears streaming down her face.
