Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 617 Apocalypse Zombies 7

The middle-aged man waved his hand, looking very cheerful and generous: "Don't be so polite, this gasoline isn't ours either."

Shen Wenyu raised an eyebrow. Several months into the apocalypse, this person could still say such things. He was either naive, genuinely kind, or after more.

You know, gasoline is worth a lot of food these days. How can they occupy this place and let people fill up their gas tanks for free?

After the three finished speaking, they went inside, seemingly without any ulterior motive.

Shen Fu finished adding the oil, walked over, patted her chest, and whispered, "Ayu, I thought they were going to attack us. They were just talking to us to lower our guard. I don't understand what's going on at all."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wenyu shook her head: "I don't know yet, let's wait and see. But it's already late today, so let's go in."

"Yeah, I'm a little hungry too."

The two walked into the gas station's supermarket and saw people sitting in every other spot, and some groups of people sitting together.

There were men, old and young, but only one young woman was standing next to a rather tall-looking man.

These people must have fled here temporarily or by accident to escape the zombies; several of them didn't even have any luggage with them.

Most of the items on the shelves had been cleared out, leaving only some things that people considered useless.

As soon as they entered, they felt all sorts of scrutinizing gazes, but after a few glances, they all looked away.

Seeing the specifics of these people, Shen Wenyu knew that they were only after the two of them, specifically their food and their car.

Coveting these things, they either confront them directly and rob them, or they pretend to be nice and want to go to the base with them, so they don't want to break off relations yet.

However, there are only two of them, and with so many people around, they probably aren't afraid of things falling apart. It's just that they're being cautious because they suspect the other two are superhumans.

After all, the fact that two young girls could drive safely on the road, remain clean, and carry food suggests they were not ordinary people.

In the apocalypse, without the ability to protect yourself, don't expect to have a smooth journey. Don't you see how many people here dare not leave at will?

Shen Wenyu had observed that of the dozen or so people here, only two possessed special abilities.

Those people were so nice just now, probably because they were afraid of scaring them away.

Shen Wenyu kept her eyes straight ahead and pulled Shen Fu to sit behind the cashier, where the view was somewhat obstructed.

She didn't know if it was because this location was near the door that no one chose to stay there.

Shen Fu sat on a stool, while Shen Wenyu sat directly on the cashier counter.

"Ayu, are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"

"Eat up. There's no hot water right now, but you can have self-heating rice."

"Okay, I happen to be craving rice right now."

The two ate bread and snacks in the car, which were not very filling and made their stomachs feel uncomfortable. Staple foods are much more filling.

Shen Wenyu smiled, ignoring the intense looks the others gave her after hearing her mention self-heating rice.

From the moment they came in carrying their bags, they could no longer hide the fact that they had food, so they simply stopped trying to conceal it and started eating.

Let's fill our stomachs first; I reckon some people might still cause trouble later.

The aroma of the mushroom and beef self-heating rice is incredibly strong; the supermarket isn't big, but the room quickly filled with its rich fragrance.

Many people rummaged through their bags, took out their food, and started eating, while others watched the two eat with bated breath.

"Grandma, I want to eat meat!" A child's voice suddenly rang out.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw an old man with a child of about five or six years old, who was drooling as he looked at them.

The old lady hugged it and coaxed it tenderly, "Oh, my dear grandson, shall we have some cookies?"

The child didn't make a fuss, but it took the old lady a long time to calm him down.

Everyone ate their food in silence, and for the time being, all seemed to be at peace.

At night, Shen Fu slept on the cash register for the first half of the night. When she woke up, she switched places with Shen Wenyu so that she could go to sleep.

Shen Wenyu didn't refuse; sitting idly was really not something a human being could do, even though her consciousness was watching TV in the system space.

I slept for two hours lying down, but was woken up by the sound of cars outside.

They had thought they would be woken up by the people here, but they didn't expect that someone else would come. This made those who had been eyeing them give up their plans for the time being.

Shen Fu walked to the transparent glass door, looked inside, and then ran back: "Ayu, several cars have arrived outside."

Shen Wenyu hadn't had enough sleep yet, and yawned listlessly: "Yeah, they've attracted the zombies too."

"What? The zombies have arrived too?"

Having already heard what the people outside were saying, Shen Wenyu nodded: "Yes, but seeing that they are standing there without moving, they probably intend to handle it themselves."

"Really? I'll go check again." Shen Fu went and reserved another spot.

Many people woke up and stood in front of the door to look at the situation outside.

At this moment, Xiao Qi suddenly spoke up: "Host, I have good news for you."

"What? You found money...and points?"

Xiao Qi pouted: "No, where would I get points to pick up in the system space?"

"Oh." Shen Wenyu was somewhat uninterested in the good news it had told her.

"Although there are no points to collect, it is still related to points. I have found the person who is most likely to develop the zombie serum."

"Where?" Recalling Xiao Qi's tone of voice, Shen Wenyu, who knew her well, looked outside: "The person you're talking about isn't out there, is he?"

Xiao Qi clapped her hands: "Host, you're so smart, congratulations on getting it right."

"...That's really true."

Shen Wenyu then took a closer look at the people outside. One of the advantages of having strong mental power is that she can see even the pores on the faces of the people outside if she wants to.

I glanced at the group of men who looked like mercenaries; they were all covered in blood and looked filthy.

But they didn't care at all, they were fighting off the zombies with weapons in hand, their expressions grim.

These people must be a team of superhumans from some base, and judging by their skills, they weren't ordinary people before the apocalypse.

She didn't look at the group much; her gaze lingered a while longer on the person in the white shirt in the back seat of one of the cars.

This person was out of place with everyone else, even though a fierce battle was raging outside.

He was still resting with his eyes closed as if nothing had happened, without even frowning, which was a bit of a show of coolness.

But then she felt that everyone seemed to be putting on a similar act. Shen Wenyu thought of herself, pursed her lips, and looked away.

How could she think of herself like that? She's a big shot; isn't it her daily routine to remain calm in the face of anything?

She quickly dismissed her strange thoughts. "Xiao Qi, is it the person in the white shirt on that car over there?"

"Yes, host, I'm sending you his information. Take a look for yourself."

"Ah."

Let her see what's so special about this guy; all she thought was that he was pretty handsome.

However, someone who can pass Xiaoqi's screening must be someone important.
