"Who are you?"
Two young men rushed out of the room, staring at the five people in front of them with terrified expressions.
{Could they be here to snatch supplies?}
{They have guns!}
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes. They were dressed too neatly to be people surviving in the apocalypse. It seemed they had been holed up here since the end began.
"We mean no harm, we just want lighters."
Xu Qian's principle was to not offend unless offended first.
The two men's gazes shifted to the source of the voice. The one wearing glasses shouted excitedly, "I know..." He was shoved by the man beside him before he could finish.
"Quick, go get the lighters!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
The young man scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face as he went to the warehouse to find the lighters.
{Why didn't Brother Feng let him speak? They saw her at school before. She's such a formidable person. If they could join her team, they'd be protected!}
Xu Qian frowned. Seen her at school?
She narrowed her eyes, her gaze lingering on the young man's acne-covered face.
Feng Zhoulong broke out in a cold sweat.
{Please don't recognize me, please don't.}
{There were so many zombies back then, everyone wanted to run. Besides, he was the one who gave him the key.}
Xu Qian understood. This person was Mei Yuebai's former roommate.
A'Bai had mentioned that the five of them had taken his car without permission.
Xu Qian knew that he would definitely not let go of those who had betrayed A'Bai.
It seemed this encounter wouldn't end peacefully today.
Soon, the young man with glasses brought two boxes of lighters down from upstairs and handed them over. Each box contained 200 lighters, enough to complete the task.
Cheng Liangqing took the boxes and thanked them. It felt a bit awkward, as their actions resembled those of bandits.
"What are you thanking us for? It's what you deserve."
Mei Yuebai's expression was indifferent, one hand in his pocket, standing outside the door.
The two men gasped simultaneously. It was Mei Yuebai.
{He, he, he... isn't dead?}
The atmosphere became tense.
Feng Zhoulong forced a smile and said, "Long time no see, Brother Bai."
The young man with glasses lowered his head, afraid to speak.
Even with a car, the five of them had encountered many dangers after leaving. Three of the original five had died, leaving only the two of them to fend for themselves.
They never expected him to have survived.
"Mm, it has indeed been a long time. And it seems you're living quite comfortably now."
Cold sweat trickled down Feng Zhoulong's forehead.
"Not at all, not at all. We've been stuck here for a month, so there's no comfort to speak of."
After all, they had lived together at school for two years, and they knew Mei Yuebai.
He was the little tyrant of the school. No one knew his background, but anyone who offended him never had a good ending.
Mei Yuebai couldn't be bothered to waste words with him.
"Give me the car key."
Feng Zhoulong quickly took the key out of his pocket and returned it to him.
With the key in hand, his fingertips moved, and a beam of intense purple electricity shot towards the two men.
They convulsed on the ground, foaming at the mouth, unable to utter a word.
After a while, their bodies were charred black and motionless. Only then did Mei Yuebai retract his ability.
The four of them looked grim, but they did not intervene. It was the apocalypse; anyone with the ability to kill could do so at any time.
He smirked coldly, looking indifferently at the two figures on the ground.
"Lord Xixi, let's not bother with the things here. They're disgusting."
