Chapter 112 - 112 The Overconfident Avenger
112 The Overconfident Avenger
However, Du Yue did not take it to heart. She packed her things. “When are we leaving?”
“The people in the lobby are also packing up. I think we can return in half an hour.” Taking advantage of this time, the two of them put out the fire and carried the rest of the firewood to the car, where they put it in the trunk. Firewood was also a very scarce resource in the current situation. It was best to save as much as possible. They absolutely could not waste it.
The two of them returned to the car. He Xing first lit the fire, then turned on the air-conditioner and heater. Du Yue took out heat pads from her backpack and stuck a lot of them on her body. When everything was ready, Zuo Mingdong also came out with the people in the lobby. Many of the vehicles, apart from the drivers, were empty when they came, but now that they were returning with survivors, every vehicle was full.
A small accident happened on the buses. The survivors were all fighting to take the bus as no one wanted to sit in the trucks. After all, the seats on the bus were more comfortable, and there might even be a heater inside, so it would definitely be much warmer than in the trucks. However, there were only a few buses. Even if the people stuffed themselves into the buses, a number of them would still have to take the trucks. Some survivors clamored to hitch a ride in the private cars, but they were all rejected. Only the owners of the private cars who followed Zuo Mingdong allowed the survivors to get in their cars.
There were survivors who knocked on Du Yue’s car window, but Du Yue and He Xing pretended not to see them. Seeing that they were about to set off, the survivors standing next to their car did not dare to waste any more time. They could only glare at them and leave. When they had arrived, the convoy had been in high spirits, but now that they were on their way back, the convoy seemed a little dispirited.
The car owners who followed them on this mission had initially thought that they would be able to pick up the spoils of war. However, not only did they not get anything, but they also lost their friends and family. Comparison was the scariest thing in the world. He Xing and Du Yue, who were unscathed and had earned lots of gains, became an eyesore to the crowd.
When they stopped to rest at noon, Du Yue noticed that many people were secretly peeking at them, but Du Yue pretended not to see them. There were paths in front of the strong and obstacles in front of the weak. Only a good-for-nothing would blame their own failure on others. Before the apocalypse, guns were indeed regulated weapons. However, now that the world was in chaos, as long as one had the resources, it was not difficult to get a gun by asking others for help.
These people had chosen to follow them out to take on the mission of hunting wild animals, but they did not prepare any weapons. Who could they blame for their current situation?
Du Yue went to the toilet during the break and came out from the back of the abandoned house. She had just walked a short distance when a person walked toward her. Although the man was wrapped up so tightly that his face could not be seen, Du Yue still subconsciously called out his name. “Zhang Zhifeng?”
Zhang Zhifeng was obviously surprised that Du Yue had called him by his name. However, he soon sneered and said, “It seems like you were prepared. You knew that I was going to take revenge on you.”
Du Yue shook her head. “No, I just had a premonition that someone would come looking for me and that person would be you.”
“You!” Zhang Zhifeng was furious. He glared at Du Yue with killing intent. “B*tch, a life has been lost because of you, yet you’re still so unrepentant! I’ll teach you a lesson today!” Zhang Zhifeng was very confident in his skills. As he spoke, he rushed toward Du Yue.
He was tightly wrapped, so his movements were greatly affected. In a situation where he could not stretch his legs, his combat power would also be greatly reduced. The reason why Zhang Zhifeng dared to run up to Du Yue and attack her was that he had the advantage of being a man with his weight and strength. Whether it was in terms of physical strength or mobility, ordinary women were no match for men.
However, Du Yue was not an ordinary woman. Du Yue easily dodged Zhang Zhifeng’s punches or kicks. After a few times, Du Yue grew bored. She had thought that Zhang Zhifeng had come to seek revenge without a care because of his great ability. She did not expect that he only knew a few showy moves.
