Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 472

Chapter 472: What Fine Actors (2)

Xie Li: "..."

As much as he would have loved to refute his underling, he knew that the little brother was right. If Lei Qian found out that they had helped Bai Meiyue, that man would certainly bury them all under six feet in the ground. Alive at that. He wouldn’t even kill them.

"Let’s go." though Xie Li was scared, he knew that there was no point in worrying about the inevitable. They could only hope that Bai Meiyue would return home before Lei Qian noticed her disappearance.

His brothers nodded and then turned to leave.

While Xie Li and the rest returned home, Pumpkin greedily looked at Bai Meiyue and Liu Mei. His eyes seemed to be burning with passion as he looked at the two women with lust in his eyes.

Liu Mei, who was asked to act along by Bai Meiyue, looked at the man and rolled her eyes in disgust. However, on the surface, she looked at the men in front of her with fear and nervousness as she said to them, "Who are you? Why are you holding guns in your hands? Are you thugs like them?"

After she finished speaking, she didn’t forget to tremble as if she were truly scared of the men in front of her.

The man immediately put away his gun and then smiled at them hypocritically. He said to the two of them, "Don’t be afraid; don’t be afraid. We are not like those beasts; we are members of the soldiers’ team who patrol around the city at night and make sure that everyone is safe. We happened to be nearby when we heard the sound of you two screaming, so we hurried down here at once."

"Are you from the base? Did you come here recently?"

"Yes, we came here after looking for a safe house," explained Liu Mei. Her voice was soft and waxy as she continued to speak, "But we have no one to look after us. Our parents were bitten by zombies and were later killed. My sister and I have to beg for food on our way to the base. We thought that we would be given a place to stay and a job that would pay with supplies, but turns out that all the job slots are filled."

"We have no place to stay and no supplies in our hands; we can only come out and look for supplies, or else the two of us will die."
