Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

At the very moment Director Zhang finished his words, the scorching summer heat seemed to drop a few degrees.

There was a chilly feeling, due to the people underneath this square staring straight at him.

An indescribable aura was spreading.

Immediately after, a brick flew up, striking Director Zhang’s head directly.

Bang!

The brick hit Director Zhang’s head squarely, and he was knocked down to the ground.

Blood flowed down from his head.

His life or death was unknown.

Captain Lv, who was beside him, reacted immediately, raising his gun and aiming it at the person who had just thrown the brick.

It was that young man, Xie Liuhai, now looking furiously angry.

Moreover, some other junior leaders behind Xie Liuhai also looked very angry.

Captain Lv cried inwardly, what the hell is this.

He glanced at Director Zhang lying on the ground and sighed.

He went forward to check Director Zhang’s condition; the brick had hit him at a tricky angle right on his temple, and now the blood kept flowing.

”Doctor Song, Doctor Song, come here and have a look,” shouted Captain Lv loudly.

However, there was a buzzing noise beneath the square, nobody heard what Captain Lv had said, and they didn’t care what Captain Lv was saying either.

At this moment, everyone was only concerned about one thing, the whereabouts of the food.

The people at the bottom only wanted a share of the food, but as Director Zhang had just said, it seemed that the food had nothing to do with them.

For those junior leaders, it was even worse, extracting some of the food from their supplies to give to others, who the hell would want to.

Seeing Director Zhang lying on the ground with an unstoppable flow of blood, they felt a rush of satisfaction.

Well done.

It should be this way, dammit, they had also risked their lives to seize those supplies.

Why should they share with others.

Why.

At this moment, Captain Lv had a rough idea; back when Xie Liuhai threw the brick, he had thought of avenging Director Zhang with a bullet, but upon seeing the angry crowd behind him, he suddenly realized something—these people were very angry.

Without Director Zhang being injured or dead, the anger of the crowd wouldn’t subside. Shooting that Xie Liuhai man could easily trigger internal chaos and lead to the disintegration of Jiefang City.

Director Zhang lying on the ground might be the best outcome currently.

”Quiet! Everyone, quiet down!” Captain Lv shouted loudly.

But no one paid attention to him, and the noise was incessant.

Bang! A gunshot from Captain Lv.

There was immediate silence, and people looked at Captain Lv.

”This base was established by Director Zhang himself. Without him, ask yourselves, could you have survived until now? Who took you in, who gave you a safe place when you were most in need?”

Silence!

”Speak up!” Captain Lv looked at the critically injured Director Zhang on the ground, his face complex, his eyes filled with anger and despondence.

Below the square, people had varied expressions. Some people’s eyes flashed with guilt, but it didn’t last long as it quickly returned to indifference; some were indifferent throughout, it was none of their business; and some also looked pleased, after all, Director Zhang had intended to take their supplies.

Such is human nature, nothing more.

Captain Lv said to a few people standing next to him, who had been following Director Zhang, ”Move Director Zhang to a room.”

A few people stepped forward, lifted Director Zhang, and carried him towards the room. Along the way, drips of blood fell to the ground.

Once Director Zhang was removed, the scene returned to calm.

Captain Lv stood in the same spot outside, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke up: ”I won’t mince words, it’s not easy to have built up Jiefang City, now with this drought, we need to face it together. Some people don’t have food, we all need to face this! I know, in these difficult times, everyone wants to keep some supplies, but can you bear to let other people in Jiefang City starve to death?”

These words were a bit melodramatic, but they also clearly explained for whom the food was being contributed— for others who were starving.

But, human nature is selfish. Even with so much said, there was still no response from the crowd.

Captain Lv sighed. At this moment, he was also a bit exhausted, helplessly, as everyone thought about themselves. This is the real situation, this is the real human nature.

”Everyone, if there are people who can contribute some supplies, please come to Yifu Building to find us. These supplies, we won’t hold back, we will give them all to those who need them, who have no supplies. I hope those who have supplies can contribute some. On behalf of those in need of supplies, I thank you.

Hope by today at 4 p.m., everyone can contribute some supplies. That’s it, thank you. Meeting adjourned.”

After his speech, those people at the bottom. A glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes, but not much. They had been disappointed too many times. They did not harbor much hope for this time. They had gotten used to being let down.

...…

The meeting dispersed, and the crowd in the square quickly scattered.

Captain Lv watched the empty square, then looked at the few teammates still beside him, and sighed.

He said to his teammates nearby, ”Wait at Yifu Building for a while later, see if anyone brings any supplies over.”

”Okay, Captain Lv.”

”No problem, Captain Lv.”

”Captain Lv, don’t worry, if someone brings them, we will tell you right away.”

Captain Lv looked at a few of his old teammates beside him, his eyes filled with some guilt. Following him, they had never enjoyed any privileges; on the contrary, they were always fighting on the front lines.

Now in Jiefang City, if the drought continues, the food issue can’t be resolved in a short term, the crops planted would also not yield any results anytime soon.

At any time, he didn’t want his brothers to end up starving to death because of food issues.

They had shed blood, they had sweat, he didn’t want them to end up with family members starving to death because of food. So he said, ”Xiao Wang, Xiao Li, gather our families together, then the supplies. Gather them all in one place and guard them strictly, it must be foolproof. This is our last line of defense.”

Actually, in his heart, he had already made a final plan. Even if Jiefang City collapsed at the end, they, these people, could still survive.

Hearing what Captain Lv said, the teammates looked at each other, they all guessed something, realizing how important this matter was, and immediately said, ”Okay.”

Captain Lv nodded.

Then he walked towards the room of Director Zhang, now also unclear about Director Zhang’s condition. He hoped he was alright.

Doctor Song’s condition was also unknown now, he scratched his head, finally sighed again.
