Zhou Peng’s expression was slightly excited. Normally, he would have definitely stopped the car to chat with Gao Bo and try to foster good relations.
But now, he wanted to know exactly where they were going to gather supplies.
Whether Tan Qing would go or not.
Based on his investigations over this period, he had discovered that the most formidable Awakener in the entire Xiangshan Film and Television City Base was Tan Qing.
They were already acquaintances.
The survivors guarding the city gate recognized Zhou Peng and knew that he brought supplies to their base. They greeted him warmly when they saw him, welcoming him in.
Zhou Peng smiled in response, noticing that the survivors seemed very excited, as if his presence had elevated their spirits considerably. Could it be that my status in their hearts is very high now?
So much so that they get excited just by seeing me?
This made him wonder if his personal charisma was really that strong. Thinking this, the smile on his face grew even brighter.
Those who know, understand.
Underlying charisma often conquers many ordinary people.
He walked lightly towards the inside, looking back at the survivors closing the city gate, "Where is Tan Qing?"
The survivor said, "Brother Tan and the others are over there hosting our god-like Lin Fan."
Zhou Peng responded casually, but as he stepped forward, his foot hovered in the air, unaired, as he shifted his throat swallowing his saliva nervously.
"You... who did you say?"
"Lin Fan, the Lin Fan from Sunshine Shelter of Huang City, my idol at heart, they are right over there."
Speaking of Lin Fan, this survivor’s eyes shone with adoration, like a lover’s sweet nothings, "My eyes are full of you, and the sun, moon, and stars are dim in comparison."
That is the image and importance of Lin Fan in the hearts of the survivors at the Xiangshan Base after that battle.
A faith-like existence.
Zhou Peng’s mind buzzed, filled with the name ’Lin Fan’. He had never expected to meet him so soon.
Although he was prepared for action.
His heart was not ready yet.
"Oh dear, I think I left something in the car, I need to go back and look for it."
Zhou Peng suddenly turned, wanting to leave this place first. If it was just ordinary survivors, he wouldn’t be scared at all, but ’Lin Fan,’ who had been mythologized by the people around him,
put an enormous pressure on him.
Fear of what is to come, and as Tan Qing and the others had just escorted Lin Fan out, they heard that familiar voice. Then Tan Qing’s laughter followed, "Speaking of the devil, here he is. We were just talking about you, Zhou Peng, Mr. Lin just happened to come today, come and meet Mr. Lin."
The Zhou Peng being called was utterly bewildered, completely surprised.
He was very regretful.
If he had known earlier that Lin Fan would be here, he would have never come even if it meant death.
Meeting is one thing, but now was not the right time; if he could avoid meeting forever, wouldn’t that be a joyful thing indeed?
Zhou Peng knew he couldn’t hesitate. He turned, a full smile on his face, and waved at them.
Lin Fan looked calmly at the approaching figure not far away.
Zhou Peng walked over, excitedly extending his hand, "Mr. Lin, I’ve long admired your name. I’ve read the content in ’Zombie Album,’ and I was shocked by it. It’s truly an apocalypse manual; all living survivors should see this kind of content."
His disguise was strong, and his enthusiastic appearance definitely didn’t appear to be a disguise.
Lin Fan let the man grasp his hand, gazing directly into his eyes, the windows to the soul, often revealing many things hidden deep within a person’s heart.
As Zhou Peng made contact with Lin Fan,
Tan Qing and others appeared to smile, but were actually waiting for Lin Fan’s next words.
They might not trust anyone else, but they absolutely trusted Lin Fan.
This wasn’t only because of Lin Fan’s strength that had conquered them, but also because of the content of the ’Zombie Album.’ It wasn’t that the content held earth-shattering secrets,
but rather Lin Fan had written it, distributed it selflessly everywhere, hoping that all survivors who found it would increase their chances of survival in this apocalyptic world.
Such actions were worthy of their trust and respect.
At this moment, Zhou Peng felt chills down his spine under Lin Fan’s gaze, as if he was standing naked in front of others.
Zhou Peng felt uncomfortable, completely clueless about what Lin Fan was thinking.
Why was he looking at him in such a way?
Could it be that he had found something wrong?
Impossible. Corpse God had already taken that face away; there was no scent left, not even a dog could sniff it out. Stay calm, you must stay calm. At critical moments, it’s vital to keep cool.
Panic can easily lead to mistakes.
Lin Fan slowly said, "You really aren’t a good fellow, are you?"
As soon as those words were spoken,
Zhou Peng’s expression instantly changed, this short sentence had terrified him immensely.
Tan Qing and others reined in their smiles and watched Zhou Peng warily. Although Zhou Peng hadn’t done anything excessive to them, when Lin Fan voiced his evaluation of him like that, they had already reached a conclusion about Zhou Peng.
That he was not a good person.
"Mr. Lin, what do you mean by that? It’s our first time meeting, why would you say I am not a good fellow?" Zhou Peng had to argue; if he didn’t, he was truly doomed.
The other party was right, he definitely was not a good person.
But that side of him hadn’t shown itself yet. How could the other party possibly know?
"From your eyes, I can see that you are a sinister, cunning, ruthless survivor. Since the apocalypse erupted, quite a few people must have died by your hand, haven’t they?"
