Da da da.
Hearing the footsteps coming from the corridor, several gangsters looked up and found Zhang Ze walking towards them. They immediately cheered up and had a sneer on their faces.
"You're finally back, you made us wait for you for so long!"
"Risk your life and go to the mirror world with the exploration team, and the captain will definitely reward you. Don't worry, we don't want much, hehe!"
"Huh? Why did you come back empty-handed? Where are the things?"
"You're not going to hide it anymore, are you? If you're wise, hand it over now!"
"Boss Huang is still waiting. You don't want to suffer, right?"
Several gangsters surrounded Zhang Ze, talking to each other, and one guy even wanted to touch Zhang Ze.
Click!
Zhang Ze grabbed the bastard's wrist, twisted it casually, and broke his wrist.
The gangster screamed, covered his wrists and knelt down on the ground. Then Zhang Ze's knee suddenly hit his head, causing him to faint.
The other gangsters were stunned, they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Before, this kid was so timid that he wouldn't fight back when hit or scolded. He kept saying "God will punish you", and then he was beaten until he knelt down and begged for mercy.
Why are you so violent all of a sudden today?
"Damn it! You're looking for death!"
"Kill him!"
Several people immediately pounced on him, but they couldn't even stand in front of Zhang Ze for three seconds before being beaten to the ground.
Zhang Ze showed no mercy to these guys and directly broke their wrists so that they would not be able to do bad things in the future.
The last gangster with dyed green hair took out a folding knife, but he still felt insecure.
"Are you Lao Huang's people?" Zhang Ze slowly walked up to the other party, struck out like lightning, snatched off his knife, and then flexibly turned the knife in his hand.
The green-haired gangster swallowed hard and nodded: "Yes, yes."
"Let's go, take me to see him." Zhang Ze grabbed the gangster by the collar, lifted him up to him like a chicken, and said coldly: "Tear down my home, I have to find him and have a good chat! "
The memory in his mind tells Zhang Ze that Lao Huang is a local snake in this area. It is said that he has a backer behind him. He specializes in bullying ordinary people, and everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak out.
If this old man is not dealt with today, he will cause trouble in the future.
So Zhang Ze decided to get rid of him, for his own sake and for the sake of others.
The green-haired gangster led the way, and Zhang Ze followed him to an open space in the cabin. This place used to be a place for fitness and exercise for people on the ship. Now it has been occupied and has become a base for the gangsters' activities.
At this time, there were more than a dozen people gathered here, smoking, swearing, making loud noises, and being unscrupulous.
"Brother Huang..."
The green-haired gangster said tremblingly to a short-haired man in a yellow jacket in the crowd: "He, he said he wanted to see you."
The crowd fell silent, and all eyes were focused on Zhang Ze.
Zhang Ze kicked the green-haired gangster away and said calmly: "Old Huang, I'm here to settle the score with you."
"Haha, you want to settle a score with me?"
Lao Huang spat on the ground and said contemptuously: "I think you are really tired of living! Brothers, teach him how to behave!"
A dozen gangsters immediately rushed towards Zhang Ze, some of them holding iron rods and daggers in their hands.
Zhang Ze was not afraid, took a deep breath, and used the Dragon Breath method to run wildly, increasing his speed and strength!
Whoosh!
He arrived first, and before those gangsters could rush in front, they were shocked to find that Zhang Ze had already arrived in front of them.
The folding knife in his hand brought out streaks of white light, which flashed across these people's wrists and ankles like lightning.
Suddenly, blood burst out and screams were ear-piercing.
When Lao Huang came to his senses, his men fell to the ground, their hand tendons and hamstrings severed by Zhang Ze, and they were lying in a pool of blood, howling miserably.
"You, why are you so powerful all of a sudden?"
The cold sweat on Lao Huang's forehead flowed down like a waterfall, and the palm of his hand holding the machete was full of sweat.
Zhang Ze didn't say anything and walked towards Lao Huang step by step. Lao Huang mustered up the courage and shouted: "I'll kill you!"
Swish!
Zhang Ze passed by him. Behind him, Lao Huang's hand tendons were severed. The machete fell to the ground with a clang. His screams could be heard throughout the corridor.
"You demolished my home, how will the debt be settled?"
Zhang Ze came over, put the knife on Lao Huang's neck, and asked with a faint smile.
"Brother, don't, don't kill me!" Lao Huang ignored the severe pain in his wrist and begged for mercy with a trembling voice: "I'll give you whatever you want!"
"What do you have?" Zhang Ze asked casually. He looked this guy up and down. Although his clothes were better than ordinary people, they were far behind compared with the old captain and Hank.
"Food, cigarettes, sugar, tea, toothpaste... I have everything you want!"
Lao Huang shrank his neck and looked at the knife in Zhang Ze's hand in horror.
On the Ark, money was just waste paper, and even gold was used to pad the legs of the table.
The really useful things are food and daily necessities, because they cannot be produced on the Ark and can only be transported by the exploration team from the Mirror World.
Ordinary people can only get a very small part of these supplies, and most of them are taken away by the upper class.
Therefore, things are rare and valuable. They are worth more than gold. Some people can even use a few bags of salt to maintain a woman...
Zhang Ze thought for a while and asked, "Then do you have a gun?"
The gun in the black-robed man's hand poses a great threat to Zhang Ze and others. The best way to deal with him is to have a gun in your own hand.
"No." Old Huang shook his head: "Those are contraband. Once discovered, they will be thrown into the sea by the captain!"
"Oh? Didn't he say he won't kill anyone?" Zhang Ze raised his eyebrows.
Lao Huang cursed: "He's farting! He can't even remember the people he threw into the sea!"
Zhang Ze shrugged and said, "In this case, you are of no use to me."
As he was about to take action, Lao Huang was so frightened that he shouted: "Don't kill me! I, I will help you find a way to get the gun!"
Zhang Ze stopped and motioned for Lao Huang to continue.
"I know a man who can get a gun, but I can't guarantee whether he can sell it to you."
After hearing what he said, Zhang Ze nodded and said, "Okay, you just need to take me to find him."
"Um, brother, can you help me stop the bleeding first?" Lao Huang raised his bleeding wrist and said with a sad face: "If the bleeding doesn't stop, I'm afraid I will die of excessive blood loss."
Zhang Ze waved his hand to the green-haired gangster from before: "You bandage their wounds, hurry up!"
…
The person Lao Huang is talking about is his backer. His real name is unknown, and his subordinates call him Brother Tiger.
"Brother Tiger and the Captain's guard captain are brothers, so he can get the gun..."
Lao Huang's hands were wrapped with bandages and he followed Zhang Ze. He now changed from his previous arrogance and became as humble as a grandson.
"So, this guy has a gun in his hand now, right?" Zhang Ze slowed down, thinking about how to get Brother Hu to sell him the weapon.
According to Lao Huang, Brother Hu will not sell weapons easily because it will be very dangerous if he is discovered.
Zhang Ze and Brother Hu are not related, and the other party is even less likely to sell it to him.
Therefore, the final result is still one: grab!
However, since the opponent has a gun in his hand, it is more dangerous to attack head-on. The safest way is to attack by sneak attack.
Zhang Ze collected several daggers and other weapons from Lao Huang in case of emergency.
He doesn't have a gun, but if he's fast enough, these weapons can kill enemies from a distance.
A few minutes later, the two came to the junction of Area D and Area C. Brother Hu lived in Area C.
There were two armed guards at the pass checking the people passing by. Seeing that they were still searching their bodies, Zhang Ze frowned.
"It seems that these weapons cannot be brought in."
Curling his lips, Zhang Ze could only throw all the knives on his body into the corner.
After passing through the checkpoint, Lao Huang took Zhang Ze outside a corridor, pointed to the innermost room and said: "This floor belongs to Brother Hu, and he lives in the innermost room..."
Zhang Ze nodded: "I understand, you can lead the way."
"I'm not going, right?" Lao Huang's mouth twitched, he was afraid of Brother Hu.
However, when he saw Zhang Ze staring at him coldly, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and move on.
There were several bodyguards standing in the corridor. They tilted their heads and stared at Lao Huang and Zhang Ze. Perhaps because they knew Lao Huang, they did not stop them.
The two walked to the innermost room. Old Huang knocked on the door and said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Hu, I am Xiao Huang..."
After waiting for a while, the door opened, revealing a cold female secretary in a short skirt. She adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose and said, "What do you want from Brother Hu?"
After saying that, she turned her eyes to Zhang Ze beside her, narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and asked, "Who is he again?"
"Sister Yang, this is my friend. He wants to buy this from Brother Hu." As he spoke, Lao Huang made a pistol gesture.
"Old Huang, have you forgotten the rules? Unless you are a regular customer, you will not be accepted!" The beautiful secretary glared at Old Huang with an unhappy expression.
Lao Huang felt that Zhang Ze was secretly kicking him, so he had to continue: "Sister Yang, this friend of mine sincerely wants to buy..."
"No!" Sister Yang raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "Don't disturb Brother Tiger, get out!"
Saying that, he was about to close the door.
Zhang Ze grabbed the door. Sister Yang was stunned and shouted angrily: "What are you doing? Let go!"
The bodyguards in the corridor heard the sound and immediately came over, some of them even showed the weapons on their waists.
Zhang Ze said calmly: "I just came back from the mirror world with the exploration team. I have some goods. Maybe Brother Hu will be interested."
The goods are not available, Zhang Ze is just lying to people in order to see Brother Hu.
As long as he sees someone, he has a way to do it.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Sister Yang said angrily: "You two get out of here quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
At this moment, a man's voice came from the house: "What's wrong?"
Sister Yang replied respectfully: "Brother Hu, this person is lingering at the door and insists on meeting you."
"Let him in."
Hearing Brother Hu's words, Sister Yang nodded slightly, opened the door and let Zhang Ze in, while Lao Huang was left outside.
Stopping Zhang Ze, Sister Yang said in a deep voice: "For safety's sake, let me search you first!"
Zhang Ze raised his hand to show that he was free.
Sister Yang touched Zhang Ze from top to bottom and nodded: "Okay, go to the study room inside. Brother Hu is waiting for you there."
After a pause, she warned sternly: "Don't think wrongly!"
Zhang Ze ignored her and strode into the study. He saw a man in his fifties sitting on the sofa. His complexion was very poor and his body was very thin. He felt like a terminally ill patient.
"Brother Tiger?"
Zhang Ze tentatively said hello, and the other party waved weakly: "Well, sit down."
After Zhang Ze sat down, Brother Hu said slowly: "You are the newcomer who went to the Mirror World with Hank and the others yesterday, right? I heard from my subordinates that you are not crazy when you come back, and your physique is much stronger than those before. .”
"It's not bad." Zhang Ze was noncommittal and straight to the point: "I want to buy some guns for self-defense."
"Can."
"Huh?" Zhang Ze was stunned for a moment. He thought Brother Hu would refuse, but he didn't expect that the other party directly agreed.
"How much do you want...well, what?" Zhang Ze looked at Brother Hu.
Brother Hu chuckled and asked, "Do you think I am lacking something?"
Zhang Ze looked around, looking at the tea and cakes on the table, as well as the high-end furnishings in the room, and nodded: "There is no shortage, so what do you need me to do?"
Brother Hu didn't say anything, but took a photo from the side and placed it in front of Zhang Ze's eyes.
Zhang Ze looked down and saw a young man in the photo who looked somewhat similar to Brother Tiger. Zhang Ze guessed that he might be Brother Tiger's son.
"He is my son. He was once a member of the exploration team. He followed Hank a year ago, but he did not come back..."
Brother Hu's tone was heavy. He sighed and said, "Hank said he was killed by the man in the mirror. Hmm, I don't believe it!"
Zhang Ze looked at Brother Hu and heard him say: "I want you to find my son and bring him back safely."
"...I think there is no need for Captain Hank to lie to you about this kind of thing..."
Zhang Ze curled his lips and said, "Your son may have really been killed."
He could understand Brother Hu's pain of losing his beloved son, but he believed that Hank did not lie, and that so many people in the exploration team should have seen it.
However, Brother Hu was very stubborn. He said resolutely: "I believe that my son is still alive and in the mirror world!"
"If you are willing to help me, I will provide you with anything you want, otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything!"
Zhang Ze frowned. He felt that Brother Tiger was a little crazy and unable to communicate normally.
Therefore, he had another idea, grab it!
The two of them are very close now, and Brother Tiger is very sick. If he takes action, Zhang Ze is very confident that Brother Tiger can be subdued.
However, Zhang Ze did not take action. His intuition told him that there were other people in this study!
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Ze decided to agree to Brother Hu first and get the gun in hand.
Anyway, there is no guarantee that he will be able to find his son.
"very good!"
Brother Hu smiled, took out a pistol from the desk drawer and pushed it to Zhang Ze.
Zhang Ze picked up the gun and checked it, frowning and said: "No bullets?"
"The gun is a deposit." Brother Hu said calmly: "When you bring my son back, I will give you the bullets."
Zhang Ze nodded helplessly: "Okay."
After walking out of Brother Hu's room, Lao Huang was still waiting outside. He didn't dare to leave without Zhang Ze.
After all, the Ark is so big, where can he hide?
"Brother Luo, have you got the guy?" Lao Huang was flattering.
Zhang Ze didn't answer, just said: "I remember you said before that if you have food, cigarettes, sugar, tea and so on, please send them to my room."
"Ah? No!" Lao Huang was about to cry.
