Suddenly, the sound of a woman screaming for help echoed in the distant alley where they had already cleared the zombies.
"Let’s take a look," said Pumpkin when he heard the sound of the woman’s cry for help. He threw away the cigar in his hands and quietly led his men to the alley from where the sounds of struggling were coming from. Of course, he was not foolish enough to jump into the mess right away and simply hid far away to observe the situation.
In the alley, two women who looked young and beautiful were cornered by five men. They were dressed in simple clothes and jackets and looked rather troubled.
The man who was standing in front of the four men was looking at the two women. He frivolously spoke to the two women, "You two come with me. Big Brother will bring you to his home and provide you with supplies. How long are you going to look for the supplies alone? Come join your big brother and live a good life."
Though the man was speaking rather boldly, his pupils were shaking with terror as he looked at Bai Meiyuei. If Pumpkin and the others had seen his expression, they would have turned around and left without taking another look at the two women in the alley.
The men behind the tattooed man also made some slight teasing remarks, but they never went too far. In fact, even when they were teasing Bai Meiyue and Liu Mei, they were really polite and respectful. Not once did they cross the line that they shouldn’t have.
On the other hand, one of the subordinates of Pumpkin whispered to him, "It seems like he is Xie Yi. The right-hand man of Xiao Wu. That bastard who tried to snatch the antiques from us last time."
"Those two women look really good. They are probably from the survivor group and have no place to stay with no one to look after them; if not, then they would not have come out to look for supplies. Should we snatch them from Xiao Wu’s gang? I bet that would make that man embarrassed to death."
From a distance, they could see that the bob-cut girl was filled with terror as she looked at the five men in front of her. The woman who was standing next to her in baggy clothes was no better; she, too, was filled with terror as her body shook with fear while she eyed the thugs in front of her.
No matter whether it was the girl who looked like a tomboy or the chubby one, both of them looked really pretty. They were prettier than the women they were used to seeing. Even the young women that they had kidnapped couldn’t match up to the beauty of these two women.
Pumpkin was also very excited. He was an average-looking man and he was often rejected by women because of his face before the end of the world. Now that the entire world had turned upside down, he was like a fish in water. He could get any woman that he wanted as long as he made a move.
These two women were very much to his liking, and he wanted to get them at once. Anyway, what could these women do to him? Even if he were to use and dump them, would they be able to report him? He didn’t think so.
