I Opened a Clinic in the Apocalypse

⟣Chapter 81

Captive 1 said, “Who doesn’t know about the granary in Yue County? If they didn’t come here for the granary, why else would they come? They steal, we kill. What’s wrong with that? And you, aren’t you here for the granary too? Since we both want to steal the granary, why pretend to be good people?!”

Captive 2 added, “Anyone who covets others’ things deserves to die!”

Wen Qingling rested his cheek on his hand, looking relaxed. “I came here to reason with you. The granary in Yue County doesn’t belong to you. It’s national property. You have been occupying public resources until now, and I won’t say anything about that. After all, there’s no government anymore. According to the law of the jungle in the apocalypse, whoever seizes it owns it. If you have the ability to guard it until now, then it’s your strength. But please don’t take it for granted that it’s your own thing and whoever steals it deserves to die. Who knows if today it’s your thing, and tomorrow it might be ours?”

The captives laughed coldly, “So, you’re here to steal the granary too!”

Wen Qingling replied, “Yes, we’re here to steal the granary.”

The captives surveyed the surroundings and sneered arrogantly, “You guys think you can steal the granary with just a few people? Don’t dream! Let me tell you the truth. The base in Xu City once organized over a thousand people to steal the granary, and they all ended up here. You guys, with just a dozen people, dare to arrogantly claim you want to steal the granary? It’s truly laughable!”

Wen Qingling sighed lightly, “Indeed, a dozen people might be too many. To deal with you, we only need one person.”

The captives burst into laughter, and the survivors from the base who came to rescue them also laughed. Miao Bo, however, couldn’t find it in himself to laugh. Since Wen Qingling said it like that, it was possible that they truly had the capability.

Miao Bo pondered who the person Wen Qingling was referring to could be. Could it be that Wen Qingling was just a decoy, and the real person who intended to steal the granary had already attacked the base? But that couldn’t be right. There was surveillance at all the entrances to Yue County, and the base couldn’t be unaware of anyone entering. Today, the people who came were only these, no one else. So who exactly was it?

Wen Qingling still sat on the roof, looking very relaxed. Miao Bo tried to find Xiao Hen… Where was Xiao Hen?! Miao Bo suddenly realized that Xiao Hen had already left at some point, but he didn’t notice when he left!

Miao Bo suddenly thought of something, turned around, and wanted to leave, but he found that he couldn’t. The street they were on was completely surrounded by a horde of zombies. The place was crowded with zombies, except for half of the street in front of them, which was clean and didn’t have a single zombie.

The survivors from Yue County Base, who came to rescue them, also saw the current situation and gathered together, tense and on guard. “Deputy Squad Leader, we are surrounded by zombies!”

Miao Bo wasn’t blind, of course, he saw it too.

Wen Qingling said, “Since you’re here, don’t rush to leave. Let’s chat a bit, shall we?”

“Fool! We are already surrounded by zombies, aren’t you afraid of death?!” The survivors from Yue County Base had lost their composure.

Wen Qingling said, “Isn’t Yue County your home? Aren’t the zombies in Yue County also your family? Why don’t you negotiate with them and see if, as part of the same family, they can go easy on you?”

The people from Yue County Base were going crazy. What kind of lunatic had they encountered?!

Miao Bo raised his hand to stop his own people from speaking and faced Wen Qingling. “What do you want?”
