Chapter 87: You Will Pay For This!

Zhang Cheng left Li Shengnan temporarily at Xincheng Bay.

There is water and food in Xincheng Bay, along with bathing facilities.

Moreover, there were no zombies around.

It could be considered a safe and comfortable base.

However, he had to continue doing what he had not finished yet.

That was to deal with all the people in Wutong Tree Garden.

Meanwhile, inside Wutong Tree Garden.

At noon, Zhang Cheng had driven his Harley motorcycle, causing a ruckus and attracting some zombies away.

However, the people inside the community failed to seize this opportunity.

This included Liu Yumei, Hou Jiawen, and Li Nana. They did not expect that Li Shengnan would abandon them, jump over the fence alone, and 'luckily' meet a 'tough guy'.

Moreover, he successfully rescued her from the horde of zombies.

"Cough cough... "

Zhou Jian coughed again. It seemed that he had an internal injury and was still lying on the floor.

Every single cough caused a surge of pain.

Next to him was an empty mineral water bottle.

At noon, Guo Tao had given them two bottles of water, one of which was completely for Zhou Jian.

Now, Liu Yumei, Hou Jiawen, and Li Nana, were staring blankly at one water bottle.

They were hungry.

However, they didn't receive any food.

According to Guo Tao's theory.

There was no need to go out for now, no need to expend energy.

But, Guo Tao's supporters had their share of biscuits and chocolates.

Although the quantity was small, at least they had something to eat.

As for Lao Ma and his people, they received a little more than Zhou Jian and others - some water and biscuits.

As for Liao Yuanshun and Ma Feng, they were only two people. But they were not to be provoked.

Seeing Ma Feng holding a kitchen knife, ready to slash anyone, Guo Tao and his gang didn't dare to steal from them.

Even in this post-apocalyptic world, there were still people who would bully the vulnerable.

Bullying the elderly, women and children was a common strategy.

All the food was piled up in the innermost room of the community activity center.

Only Guo Tao and his people guarded the door, no one else could get close to the food unless they allowed it.

If Liao Yuanshun and Ma Feng dared to steal, Guo Tao and his people wouldn't just sit by and watch either.

At this time, Guo Tao was holding a meeting.

Rather than a meeting, it was more like a pep talk.

He was now the leader, the core of the team.

To get everyone's support, he had to make them believe they could survive by following him.

Guo Tao said, "Although we missed the opportunity this noon, it's okay. Some zombies have been lured away. Next time a car passes, we will break out."

The men and women around him all nodded in agreement.

Guo Tao said to a man with black-rimmed glasses, "Xiao Wang, you keep an eye on the front door. If more zombies are lured away, let us know."

"Okay," Xiao Wang nodded.

Guo Tao said to a woman with a mole on her face, "Zhang Li, you watch the back door. It's the same as Xiao Wang."

Zhang Li also agreed.

She was clear about the importance of this-- it was a matter of life and death.

Guo Tao said, "We change guards every four hours. What do you guys think?"

Everyone there agreed with Guo Tao's arrangement.

Guo Tao felt a tinge of pride in his heart. He had been the labor representative in elementary school, and he was very familiar with assigning tasks to others.

Moreover, he felt he had replaced Lao Ma and become the cornerstone of the team.

...

It was already late into the night.

The young man and woman assigned to guard the front and back door were fighting off yawns.

The old security guard at the gate was boiling instant noodles.

He made only half a packet, saving the rest for tomorrow.

As one of the gatekeepers, he received a lot of benefits from the three small groups. Plus, by renting out pots and pans, he had gathered quite a lot.

Naturally, Guo Tao and his group wouldn't let him off.

Not only did they beat him, but they also stole the pickles, millet, flour, and rice from his house. Moreover, they took the keys to the front and back gate and gave them to the people on guard duty.

They left the old security guard with only one bottle of mineral water and a pack of instant noodles.

The old security guard, who had been honest for his entire life, still wanted to help others in the apocalypse. He didn't expect that it would invite the wolf into the house.

Now, the aroma of the instant noodles had attracted the young man guarding the front door.

Smelling the aroma, the young man immediately took the security guard's pot away.

The security guard was outraged, but when he tried to get up, he was kicked down by the young man.

Such a bully!

The old security guard cursed at the retreating figure of the young man, "You will pay for this."
