"Old Xu, be careful!"
Lao Lin knew very well what Xu Renjie's departure meant. Although he trusted Lao Xu's ability, it was normal to have some worries as the war was imminent.
Lao Xu nodded simply: "Yes, I will. Just keep an eye here and wait for Huabiao. After Li Xiaoxin leaves, there will be a shortage of manpower, so please pay attention to safety."
After finishing the explanation, Lao Xu led Derek quickly towards the shaft.
After several hours of rest, both Lao Xu and Derek were extremely energetic, especially Derek, who no longer remembered what it felt like to be full.
Even in the past, he had the opportunity to use the "privilege" of mobile phone supplies to "line his own pockets", but don't forget that this is the end of the world, and every acquisition of supplies is a test of life and death.
What's more, Derek has to rely on small supplies at a time in exchange for the comfort of the two girls at school.
so……
As the saying goes, if you have enough food and drink, you will not be tired from work.
With sleep and food on his back, Derek is more mobile than ever.
Opening the manhole cover, Lao Xu and Derek both entered.
Walking in the shaft in the evening is extremely inconvenient. Aside from the unpleasant smell, the darkness alone is extremely stressful.
Lao Xu didn't care about this, but considering that Derek was a young man, he still brought a flashlight.
The weak white light swayed around in the shaft, and the dazzling beam of light made people feel indescribably weird.
But no matter what, it represents "light" after all.
With the guidance of "Light", Lao Xu and Derek arrived at the school shaft smoothly.
We still haven't encountered any zombie attacks along the way, which is undoubtedly "good" news for Old Xu.
There is no doubt that whether the shaft is smooth or not is directly related to the success or failure of this operation.
Later, Lao Xu and Derek climbed to the 10th floor just like last time. Sneak into the opposite side of the teaching building.
After entering the glass door, Derek let out a long breath of relief.
For him, every time he goes out he is "on tenterhooks". Only through the glass door in front of him can he feel at ease.
But this "reassurance" is only temporary. It simply means the dangers of the outdoors are over. But at the same time, indoors has just begun.
Walking out of the corner behind the glass door wall, before Lao Xu could sting the door, Jiangguchi's figure appeared.
Apparently Tai had been waiting in the guard room for a long time.
"I don't need to explain the rules. I believe you all understand what to do, right?" There was a faint smile on his face. Eguchi fought with his arms crossed.
When Lao Xu heard this, he immediately stood up and said respectfully: "I understand, I understand, brother Jiangguchi, here are my swords and flashlights for you."
Through the door fence, Old Xu smoothly handed over the weapons and props in his hands.
Forget it, start raising your arms. Pull sleeves.
Derek looked quite speechless, thinking of the promise the man in front of him made resolutely in the car half an hour ago. Derek really admired the man's acting skills.
At that moment, he also followed Lao Xu and handed over his weapons.
Eguchi was not worried about what tricks the two men in front of him would dare to play. After all, in terms of numbers, they had the absolute upper hand. In terms of skill, they are all professional judo players. In terms of weapons and equipment, there are guns and knives to crush the opponent.
so. From Eguchi's point of view, unless there was something wrong with Lao Xu and Derek's heads, he would just give them courage. They didn't dare to mess around.
"Okay! Come in!" Open the door and let in Lao Xu and Derek.
After seeing the three packages the two of them were carrying, Eguchi's eyebrows couldn't help but frowned: "Have you got all the supplies?"
Lao Xu may not have seen what Jiangguchi meant, but Derek, who had been dealing with the other party for more than half a year, was quite aware of Jiangguchi's bad intentions.
And precisely because he understood Eguchi's thoughts, Derek pretended to be melancholy. Sighing softly: "It's not bad!"
The answer was ambiguous, but the feigned helplessness on Derek's face still confused Eguchi very well.
Eguchi is smart, but smart people are often conceited.
Eguchi felt that handling Derek was as easy as handling a persimmon. He didn't believe it, and he didn't think Derek would play with him.
So after hearing Derek lament, his subconscious feedback to him was that the young man did not gain much from this trip.
However, looking at the bulging state of Derrick's backpack, Eguchi still nodded: "Haha, why should Derrick be so humble? Didn't you... bring everything back? Could it be..."
There was a sudden pause in the conversation, and Eguchi suddenly touched his chin, and then said with a faint smile: "Could it be that there are all... Haha, I mean Derrick, you know Boss Watanabe's temper. If you dare to fool me with messy things He wants to get away with pointing to "trash", hum, I advise you to give up this plan. Otherwise... you and this... I'm afraid the lives of you two will be... Oh, but I can I’ll give you some guidance. I just don’t know if you’re willing to do it, Derrick.”
Considering this, how could Lao Xu fail to hear Jiangguchi's inner plan.
After relating everything that happened before leaving yesterday, Lao Xu immediately continued without waiting for Derek's response: "Uh... well, brother Eguchi, what about that, you, tell me, I hope you can give me some advice."
Jiangguchi glanced at Lao Xu sideways, but did not answer. Then his eyes fell on Derrick: "Derrick should be very clear about what I said. I just want to remind Derrick that you are a smart person and should understand that you want to protect him. Things must be alive first, otherwise, if you can't even save your own life, how can you protect other things? So what should be sacrificed is sacrifice, do you understand?"
The fists clenched together uncontrollably, and Derek really punched the beast in front of him.
He knew that Eguchi had coveted Demi and Zhao Lina for a long time. If Watanabe hadn't been suppressing them, the other party would have taken advantage of them and executed the two girls.
"Thank you Eguchi-kun for the reminder. I will... consider your suggestion."
To Eguchi's surprise, he really didn't expect Derek to give such a reply.
You must know that he has hinted to Derek more than once on weekdays to "use women in exchange for more materials", but the result was either flatly denied by Derek or no answer at all.
But today, Derek responded so readily and seemed to accept his proposal.
Looking at the backpack on Derek's back and looking at the respect on Xu Renjie's face, Eguchi smiled proudly and thought to himself: What's the use of persistence? What's the use of guarding the bottom line? If it's really a matter of life and death, wouldn't you sell your soul?
With a smile on his face, Eguchi waved his hand, and then said: "Let's go and stay in the conference room. I'll call Boss Watanabe and others over." (To be continued.)
