Sorting Things Out

Finnegan was now full of vigor.

The door swung open, and Elbert stood at the doorway!

"Young Master Bruce!"

"They'll stay with you for now!"

"Alright!"

"Cedric, come with me to get some food."

"Sure thing, Young Master Bruce."

After arranging Finnegan and the others, Bruce Roberts had Elbert fetch the room card and grabbed some food from the nearby storage room.

On this floor, Bruce Roberts had prepared two storage rooms, one of which was an armory!

All the room cards were with Elbert.

Bruce Roberts took a few pieces of bread, some sausages, and two bottles of yogurt. After Cedric also got some food, they locked the storage room and returned to their own door.

Knock, knock, knock!

Bruce Roberts knocked on the door!

"Who is it?" a vigilant voice came from inside, reaching Bruce Roberts's ears.

Hearing this voice, Bruce Roberts frowned.

Because this voice... wasn't Cynthia Sanchez's?? Realizing the voice inside wasn't Cynthia Sanchez's, Bruce Roberts didn't have time to think much!

He quickly signaled to Cedric who hadn't gone far!

Cedric understood and quickly returned the food to room 8006, then called Elbert and Finnegan.

The three of them cautiously approached, holding weapons.

Bruce Roberts made a hidden gesture to the three of them!

Once the three were hidden, Bruce Roberts spoke softly, "It's me, open the door quickly."

At this moment, Cynthia Sanchez's voice sounded.

"Bruce Roberts? Is it Bruce Roberts?"

"Yes!"

"Do you know the kid outside the door?"

It was a middle-aged woman's voice.

"Yeah, uh, he's... he's my classmate!"

Cynthia Sanchez didn't know what her relationship with Bruce Roberts was now, so she could only use the word 'classmate' to describe it.

Finnegan outside the door, upon hearing Cynthia Sanchez's voice, couldn't help but feel somewhat familiar.Before he could think further, another man's voice sounded.

"What are you doing?" the man said.

Cynthia Sanchez replied matter-of-factly, "I'm opening the door for Bruce Roberts."

"Opening the door? What door?" the man asked, his voice filled with dissatisfaction. "With the outside being so dangerous now, how can you just casually open the door for someone?"

"What do you mean casually? Bruce Roberts is my classmate, not a stranger."

"That doesn't matter!"

"Why not?"

Hearing this, Cynthia Sanchez couldn't help but feel irritated. Although she still couldn't forgive Bruce Roberts for what he did to her last night, things needed to be sorted out.

This room was originally opened by Bruce Roberts. The people who came into the room now were the outsiders. She kindly let them in, but they returned ingratitude?

"What do you mean why not?"

The man scolded loudly, "Did you see what happened downstairs just now? People who have been bitten by those monsters can get up again and continue to bite others."

"This kid has been outside for so long, only knocking on the door now. Who knows if he's been bitten by those monsters? What if he comes in and turns into one of those monsters?"

"He's standing fine outside now, how could he have been bitten by monsters?" Cynthia Sanchez felt these people were somewhat unreasonable.

The humans bitten downstairs were clearly turned into monsters only after being bitten to death. Bruce Roberts was alive and well; how could he turn into one of those monsters?

"Miss, just listen to Heywood!"

"Yeah! Miss, what Manager Heywood said makes sense."

"With so many people in this room now, if even one person turns into such a monster, it'll be troublesome."

"We can't let him in!"

"Yes, we can't let him in!"

"If you want to leave, it's up to you!" Hearing everyone's clamor preventing her from opening the door, Cynthia Sanchez really got angry. "This is mine and Bruce Roberts's room. We have the right to use this room. Why do you have the right to keep Bruce Roberts out?"

"If you're afraid Bruce Roberts will turn into a monster, then go find another place yourselves!""Your room?" Manager Heywood sneered, "Hmph, this is clearly a hotel room. How did it become your room?"

Manager Heywood was the manager of the restaurant on the second floor!

When the apocalypse struck, he was flirting with the receptionist in the lobby on the ground floor.

As a result, several zombies rushed in, and the receptionist was the first one to be bitten to death.

This incident dealt a huge blow to his fragile heart.

What frightened him even more was that after this receptionist was bitten to death, she stood up again?

This discovery scared him to the point of wetting himself.

So even if Bruce Roberts was a guest in this room, he couldn't easily open the door for the other party.

"That's right!"

"How much did you pay to use this room? We'll pay double!"

"Anyway, the door can't be opened!"

"Yes!"

Others joined in the hostility and stood on Manager Heywood's side!

Life is only once, and no one wants to joke with their own lives.

Cynthia Sanchez was frustrated but helpless.

Because those two women had already cornered her in the corner.

How could she, just a weak woman, compete with these two 'formidable' women?

Just when everyone was arguing endlessly, Bruce Roberts's voice came faintly from outside the door.

"I'm not injured. If you don't believe me, you can open the door and check. If I'm injured, I'll leave on my own without you telling me!"

Bruce Roberts's calm tone made everyone in the room look at each other.

It seemed that they were all surprised that Bruce Roberts could say such words.

Cynthia Sanchez was even more shocked!

At the same time, she was filled with a lot of guilt.

The reason for her shock was that Bruce Roberts, a rich second-generation, could actually say such selfless words?

Leave if injured? Without involving others?

The reason for her guilt was that when someone was desperately knocking on the door asking her to open it just now, she still softened her heart.

It was her wrong decision that caused Bruce Roberts, who should have been the master, to be blocked outside by them."Are you really not injured?" Manager Heywood's voice came from behind the door.

He didn't know what Cynthia Sanchez was thinking, but since the apocalypse had just arrived, human's evil nature hadn't fully unleashed yet.

So after hearing Bruce Roberts say that, he relaxed his vigilance a bit.

"Why don't you open the door and see for yourself?" Bruce Roberts endured his anger and spoke calmly.

The conversation inside wasn't quiet, and he could hear it clearly from outside the door.

Naturally, he knew exactly what was going on inside.

But this wasn't the time for violent door breaking!

The best way to handle it was to trick the door open.

Upon hearing Bruce Roberts's words, Manager Heywood still felt somewhat uneasy. He looked out through the peephole.

Seeing that Bruce Roberts was alone, he finally let go of his guard.

"Dixon, open the door!"

He picked up the nearby desk lamp and waved to another young man!

Although the young man called Dixon was reluctant to follow Manager Heywood's orders, he had no choice.

He was just a waiter in the restaurant, and the thought that 'the manager is his superior' was deeply ingrained.

In the situation where the apocalypse had just arrived and human values ​​hadn't been completely refreshed, he could only grit his teeth and open the door.

But just as he opened the door and released the safety lock...

Bang!

Bruce Roberts kicked the door violently.
