As soon as Xia Ju opened her mouth, Du Yue noticed the man beside the car. The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile. “Xia Ju, you’re very famous. It’s my honor to know you.”
The man called out Xia Ju’s name accurately, which made Xia Ju even more surprised. “How did you recognize me?”
Ever since she came to the first base, Xia Ju had been doing research in her room almost every day. She rarely went out, so very few people had seen her. Could this person be Zuo Mingdong’s subordinate? However, just as this thought appeared, it was denied by Xia Ju.
This person was obviously implying that he had never seen Xia Ju before and had heard about her from someone else.
As Xia Ju was calculating, the man beside the car smiled and said, “I heard from others that you’re a sunny girl, completely different from Du Yue, who’s gloomy all day. Today, 1 see that you live up to your reputation. You’re very beautiful. 1 know that your greatest hobby is to taste delicious food. As long as you agree to stay, I can arrange for people to make whatever you want to eat.” Xia Ju seemed very interested. “Really? There are many things I want to eat, such as cherry foie gras, Australian lobster, and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Can you arrange for someone to make them for me?”
Du Yue saw it clearly from the side. As Xia Ju asked, the smile on the man’s face disappeared. The food that Xia Ju wanted could not be eaten in ordinary restaurants before the apocalypse, let alone now. It could only be tasted in Michelin restaurants.
However, from the way the man outside did things, it could be seen that his family must have some ability. It was easy for him to arrange for someone to make these dishes if it were before the apocalypse. However, the current situation was different. Money was useless, and power was not very useful. After all, it had been a few years since the apocalypse, and the food that they had stored up was almost finished. There were very few ingredients that could be found. No matter how capable one was, one could not possibly go all over the world to find these ingredients. The man’s face became darker and darker. After a long time, he suppressed his anger and said, “I thought you were a smart person, but now it seems that the three of you are idiots!”
Xia Ju blinked her big innocent eyes. “You’re so weird. You were the one who said 1 could eat whatever I wanted. Are you angry because you can’t find the ingredients I want?”
Xia Ju pretended to be ignorant, but every word she said was ruthlessly stepping on the man’s sore spot.
The man paused for a moment, and his eyes became colder. “Have you guys forgotten that this isn’t a base? Without Zuo Mingdong to protect you, do you think you have a chance of winning if the three of you fight alone? Since you guys are still indifferent after I’ve said my piece, I can only kill you! If 1 can’t get it, I can only destroy it!”
The man took a few steps back as he spoke and gave the people behind him a look. “Do it. Don’t leave anyone alive.”
As soon as the man finished speaking, the sound of gunfire rang out one after another. Du Yue and the other two remained calm and did not move even a muscle as they watched the people outside shoot. The bullets hit the window and only made muffled sounds. The window did not move at all and did not suffer any damage.
When He Xing was building this car, he had mentioned to Du Yue that all the materials used in this car were exchanged from the galaxy. They were all special materials used to build spaceships. Not to mention these bullets, even if a rocket launcher were used, the car window would still not be damaged at all. The people outside fired hundreds of bullets in succession, and the three people in the car did not move at all. The man stood in the middle of the crowd. He had a confident smile on his face, but soon, his smile disappeared.
The man spoke in a hoarse voice. He could not believe what he was seeing. Other than disbelief, there was also uncontrollable anger. Bullets could not even hurt them. The man could already imagine how Du Yue and the other two were sitting in the car, laughing at him. Just thinking about that scene made the man’s eyes fill with gloom.
As a round of bullets was fired, the man suddenly called for them to stop. At this moment, the haze in his eyes had disappeared, replaced by undisguised fanaticism. “Not bad! This is the best car I’ve ever seen in my life! The three of you are indeed capable! I’ve changed my mind. Even if I have to kidnap you today, I’ll kidnap you all back! I have a lot of time to waste with you. I believe that one day, you’ll be willing to cooperate with me..”
