"How can you make such demands? Sister Miao and the captain went out and risked their lives to get these supplies, yet you sit here and ask for three quarters of them? You won’t even be given an empty bag. How annoying." Lei Ying retorted with an angry expression.
The others were wearing the same angry look.
"What do you mean by risking their lives? Since they could go out in the world filled with so many zombies, they must be strong and able to fight.
What’s wrong with giving us who can’t fight zombies like them some of the supplies they got?" The auntie questioned with so much righteousness it was exasperating.
"Since killing zombies is so easy, why don’t you stop sitting around like a salted fish and go kill some then get your own supplies? What’s with you sitting out here and waiting for other people’s fruits of labor?
Where in the world would you find such a good thing?" Li Kun, who had come back from parking the car questioned with a red face.
"Exactly, even when the world was normal and at peace, you had to work to earn your keep. Where would you get anything for free?" Murong Yi interjected as well.
"There is no need to argue with such shameless people. Let’s go inside. I want to rest." Chu Miao, seeing how angry the former soldiers were, spoke to prevent them from getting sick out of anger.
But she didn’t expect that the women would take her silence as fear and become even more brazen.
"If you want to go inside this building you have to give us three quarters of the supplies you brought. Otherwise you can wait for the sun to rise and get roasted outside.
This time they went overboard. Even the usually expressionless Ye Xuan had an angry look on his face.
"Move." He only said one word but everyone felt the surroundings chill despite the high temperatures.
However, even though the aunties were intimidated and thought of retreating, their courage was bolstered when they saw other members of their families appear behind them.
Those people didn’t say anything, but their message was clear by standing there. They were supporting what the women had said.
Chu Miao looked at these people, some of whom were young and healthy men and felt stifled.
She knew that she had a duty and responsibility in this apocalypse to try and help humanity overcome it. But she felt it would be disastrous to keep people like these alive.
Instead of helping, they might even sink humanity further into an abyss.
"I said move." Ye Xuan rarely repeated himself, but he made an exception because he didn’t want to take action against so many people.
Unfortunately, his good intentions were misinterpreted as weakness. Those people saw him asking them to move repeatedly without doing anything and thought that he was afraid.
"Hand over all the supplies you got today then we will let you pass." One of the young men, around twenty-four years old said.
They had gone from asking for three quarters of the supplies to demanding all of them.
"You are a healthy human being with functioning arms and legs, why can’t you go out to look for supplies and instead wait here to swindle others?" Chu Miao asked.
When the young man heard that he became angry.
"What do you mean by swindling others? You are paying entrance fees into the building. If you don’t want to give the supplies then you can stay outside."
Chu Miao had never been so angry before. Paying entrance fee? She owned an apartment in this building yet she was asked by a nobody to pay entrance fee?
She could no longer endure her anger. She pulled out her sword and pointed it at those people and said, "Move or I will act."
The people opposite shrank into themselves, but then looking at their numbers, they thought that a little girl like Chu Miao wouldn’t dare to act upon so many people, so they refused to move.
Chu Miao no longer cared about anything. She swung her sword and cut down the young man who demanded all the supplies.
The others watched as their companion who was talking a moment ago was split into two.
What was even more terrifying was that the sword didn’t even touch him.
Of course, Chu Miao had used spiritual power to form sword Qi and cut him with it. She didn’t plan to show mercy. She had decided to take this opportunity to kill the chicken to warn the monkey.
Otherwise, if she just let them off the hook just like that, these self-righteous people will think that she was easy to bully and her family will never have peace.
"Murder, this is murder. You killed my son. Give me back my son, otherwise I am going to call the police to arrest you." The woman with emaciated cheeks suddenly came back to her senses and screamed.
"Go ahead and call the police then. Let’s see if they have time for petty things like your son’s life." Ye Xuan was the one who spoke.
It was rare to see him say such a long sentence to a stranger.
The auntie of course knew that the police couldn’t come, but the people of their country were used to being protected by the police and had never witnessed such blatant disregard for life.
Killing someone because of a disagreement. She was also overcome with grief as she watched her eldest son die before her eyes.
"Are you going to move or do I have to cut more of you down?" Chu Miao asked, which scared those people so much that they scattered like birds in all directions.
Even the corpse of the young man was forgotten.
Gu Fan looked at these cowardly people and produced a small cluster of flames then threw them at the corpse. The corpse ignited immediately and burned to ashes in less than two minutes.
Upon seeing how unfeeling these young people were, not even giving the family of the young man a chance to bury him, everyone felt a chill run down their spine.
They made a decision to never cross the people from the 18th, 19th, and the 20th floor. They were demons who killed without blinking.
