On the road, the trio were completely stunned by Shi Sheng. Other than those explode-y purple balls, she also had an iron sword. That sword sliced through zombies like she was cutting through radishes.
In the end though, they got used to being shocked every so often.
They didn’t understand what the deal was with that young man though. He didn’t seem to do anything and when he ate, he’d always have an expression of disgust on, as if what he was eating wasn’t precious food but something revolting.
Every time they saw that expression of his, the trio had the impulse to go and slap him.
‘It’s the apocalypse! Food is very precious! Do you know how many people are dying or have died of hunger?! Do you know how many have lost their humanity and killed others just to get food?!’
But they discovered his IQ didn’t seem very high so they suppressed that impulse. Fortunately, they wouldn’t have to travel together for much longer. B City was getting closer. They travelled for about three days before finally seeing the gates to the B City safe-zone.
At that time, it was already Day 56 of the apocalypse, so the system of management in the safe-zone was already finalised.
“Are you guys leaving on your own, or following me?” Shi Sheng got White Tiger to keep some stuff in his space as she asked the three in the backseat.
She had been observing them for the past three days. Their character was quite good. Even after seeing that she had a lot of food, other than revealing some longing, they hadn’t tried anything funny. Despite that, she left the choice of staying with her or not completely up to them.
“Ms Gu means to say?” Qing Yu’s heart thumped wildly when he heard Shi Sheng’s question.
“I need people to help me with stuff. If you guys are willing to stay, you’ll be my people from now on. Perhaps in the future…” Shi Sheng paused and didn’t continue her sentence. She looked at Qian Li.
Qian Li turned back to smile at Shi Sheng. “Hungry…”
Shi Sheng was speechless. ‘Hungry your grandpa! What else can you do besides eat?!’
Qing Yu and the other two discussed it for some time before finally agreeing. In these few days of interaction, they had come to respect her from the bottom of their hearts. She was just a young lady yet was calmer than them when dealing with trouble. Besides, they had been saved by her, so even if it was for the sake of repaying this debt, they wouldn’t refuse.
“Boss, since we’re on the same side now, can you tell me what that sword of yours is?” Lin Feng immediately changed his form of address and shamelessly asked Shi Sheng what he had always meant to ask. ‘If you told me that sword could slice through iron like mud, I wouldn’t doubt you at all!’
“The Sword of Righteousness.” Shi Sheng had a ‘serious’ expression as she spoke, “The future of the world rests on this sword!”
Lin Feng was stumped. ‘I nearly believed you when you spoke like that. Is it really okay to be this chuuni?’
Shi Sheng laid down some ground rules for them. If they were her people, then they would need to play by her rules. And these rules were rather simple. It really just boiled down to two words: Obey her!
“Get off.” Shi Sheng hugged White Tiger as she got off the car first, followed closely by Qian Li. There were a lot of people in the queue, outside of the safe-zone, waiting for their turn to go in. Shi Sheng and gang were far behind—far enough that they had to stretch out their necks to be able to even see the gates.
