Wenquan Xin's scolding brought the situation to a deadlock again. As a last resort, Tang Xiaoquan could only speak again: "Haha, Xiaode, as far as I know, the "Footbasin" country is very xenophobic, so I'm curious, what method did you use? Convince them to accept you?"
This issue is undoubtedly very critical. You must know that through Derek's narration just now, it is obvious that the "Footbasin" Chinese students have completely dominated the storage room, and they have no need to accept the help of others.
Derek glanced at Tang Xiaoquan curiously, because after this series of conversations, he became more and more aware that the young man in front of him was not simple.
Although the latter always gives people a loose and leisurely feel, he always sticks to the topic every time he asks a question.
"This... is because I have abilities that they don't have!" Tang Xiaoquan noticed that when Derek said these words, his body could not help but straighten up a little, and a hint of pride flashed through his dejected eyes.
"Haha, it seems that this ability gives you a lot of confidence. Can you tell us what it is?" Tang Xiaoquan asked with a hint of fun.
"Actually, it's okay, because I'm the only one in the whole school who can go out!"
Another unexpected answer, Draco's repeated replies shocked the survivors.
"You are the only one who can go out?" Wenquan Xin laughed twice, obviously not believing what the young man said.
But regarding this, Drake looked very calm, and he affirmed again: "Yes! Only I can go out!"
"Why?" Tang Xiaoquan, who had already guessed the answer, asked pretending not to know.
"Because the school is full of zombies. Even after the outbreak, the "footbath" Chinese students forced us to go out and clear the way, but in the end we only cleared one floor."
"Haha, then why can you enter and exit the school freely?" Tang Xiaoquan still asked indifferently.
"I have two hobbies, one is playing with cars; the other is extreme sports. I know that these things are not very popular in China, but they are very popular abroad. I was lucky enough to learn parkour, so the buildings in the school may be familiar to others. It’s a dead place, no problem for me.”
Derek's slightly conceited remarks. This made all the Chinese peers present a little unhappy.
However, due to the fact that he did not know how to do it, Wenquan Xin, who was about to have an attack, could only take a few breaths and said nothing.
"Ah, then you are quite powerful." Unlike Wenquan Xin's indignation, Tang Xiaoquan did not show any emotional fluctuations because of Derek's remarks. On the contrary, through the other party's words, he found another breakthrough point for attack: "You are so powerful, aren't they afraid of you deceiving them? Are you going to run away by yourself?"
At this point, Derek's face suddenly darkened, and his proud head drooped weakly.
This sudden change of the young man made Lao Zhao and others confused.
A while. Derek said dejectedly: "My girlfriend is in their hands. The condition for me to join them is not to violate my girlfriend. Oh, by the way, there is another girl. She is from China and is my girlfriend's college friend."
"I don't see that you still have a sense of justice!" After hearing Derek's explanation, Tang Xiaoquan gave a rare serious reply. This somewhat surprised Derek, so much so that he couldn't help but say a few more words:
"It's actually nothing. It's what I should do. Unfortunately, I can only protect Demi and Zhao Lina. As for the other girls... ugh!"
He sighed feebly. From Derek's sigh, it's not difficult to imagine what happened to the trapped girls.
At this point, Tang Xiaoquan had basically understood the whole incident. According to Derek, he had no choice but to join the "Foot Basin Nation" in order to protect his woman and his girlfriend's friends.
The people from the "Footbasin Country" couldn't go out to collect supplies because the school was besieged by zombies, so they made a deal with Derek in exchange for not violating the woman. Ask Derek to use his own skills to climb across the school to find supplies.
Today is the day he comes to get supplies.
If tonight is normal and nothing else happens, then it can be basically concluded that what Derek said is true.
After clearing his mind, Tang Xiaoquan let out a sigh of relief. Despite his relaxed expression just now, he was sitting there in a leisurely manner.
But in reality, he was always listening to Derek's words with all his attention. And wait for opportunities to find the other party's flaws.
After rubbing his slightly swollen temples, Tang Xiaoquan was about to stand up and pour some tea to soothe his throat. But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of anxious breathing coming from the side.
Tang Xiaoquan looked sideways subconsciously. But I saw Lao Zhao's face was ferocious, and his chest was rising and falling like a blower.
what happened! ? Tang Xiaoquan couldn't help being stunned, and immediately asked inexplicably: "Old Zhao, Old Zhao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
As if he hadn't heard anything, Lao Zhao ignored Tang Xiaoquan's question, and his chest rose and fell more violently. A pair of fists are also tightly packed.
Obviously, this was the first time for Tang Xiaoquan to see Old Zhao in such a violent manner. It felt like a fire that had been dormant for a long time was about to erupt.
After Tang Xiaoquan's reminder, everyone also discovered something strange about Lao Zhao.
Bi Dahu put his hand on Lao Zhao's shoulder, held it down, and shouted in a deep voice: "Hey! Lao Zhao! What's wrong with you? Hey, Lao Zhao, you are..."
Before the word "talk" came out of his mouth, Lao Zhao raised his hand and opened Bi Dahu's right palm, then raised his head sharply and met Derek's eyes: "Who did you say your girlfriend's friend just now?"
Derek was startled by Lao Zhao's sudden gaze. He couldn't figure out why the middle-aged man in front of him became so manic, as if he was about to eat him.
The stunned Derek blurted out almost subconsciously: "Zhao Lina, my girlfriend's friend is Zhao Lina, what's wrong?"
"Bang!" Like a cheetah, no one could even realize what was going on. Lao Zhao jumped up from the stool and immediately reached out and locked Derek's throat.
A series of movements were as fast as a rabbit, flowing like water. If Xu Renjie were here at this moment, he would be shocked by Lao Zhao's quick skills.
"Asshole! Asshole! Asshole!" Lao Zhao kept repeating the same words as if he was possessed by a magic spell.
Derek struggled desperately as his throat was locked. However, in his furious state, Lao Zhao was like a devil from hell. The hands holding Derek's throat were locked tightly like iron hoops, making it difficult for Derek to breathe almost instantly.
Seeing that Derek was about to suffocate from Old Zhao's pinch, Tang Xiaoquan quickly shouted: "Quick! Quick! Hold Old Zhao, hold Old Zhao!"
Tang Xiaoquan didn't care about the life or death of Derek, an outsider, but through the conversation just now with Old Zhao, he had figured out the reason for Old Zhao's rage.
And it was precisely because he knew the reason for Lao Zhao's rage that Tang Xiaoquan realized that if Lao Zhao was allowed to strangle Derek to death now.
When Lao Zhao calms down, he will definitely fall into endless regret. (To be continued.)
