Chapter 60 - An Unexpected News (1/2)

There was a smile on Shen Chen’s lips, which showed that he agreed with Zhang Hongtao. The rotten streets and morally depraved world was not something Shen Chen believed in. The problems that existed in the military shelters were obvious. However, these problems were not the most terrifying things at present.

Zhang Hongtao shook his head. “Although there aren’t many people in our team, and some of them don’t get along with each other, you are undoubtedly the core of the team. Guo Yuan, Pan Di, and Zhao Zhen aren’t very convincing in the way they handle things. But sometimes you can still trust them with their work. Even though it’s the end of the world, I believe that staying here is clearly the best choice. Right now, it’s far from the right time to go to the military shelter. We have to wait for better opportunities and better shelters.”

Shen Chen’s eyes showed that he thought the same thing. “That’s right,” he said.

Zhang Hongtao finally smiled. He knew that Shen Chen agreed with him, and more importantly, he finally understood what Shen Chen was thinking about. Zhang Hongtao said with a smile, “Shen Chen, if you ask me, the TV doesn’t need to be repaired. Since we’re not going to leave here, it doesn’t matter if we watch the TV. Plus, we don’t have the key.”

A bunch of keys flashed through the air in a beautiful parabola and landed accurately in Zhang Hongtao’s hands. Zhang Hongtao looked at the keys in surprise. He didn’t know why Shen Chen had the keys.

Shen Chen said, “These are the keys I found on my first day at the hotel. Have a try. One of them should be able to open the door.”

Zhang Hongtao was puzzled. “But we don’t have to…”

“We at least need light. And think about the restaurant on the fourth floor. If we don’t have a freezer, I’m afraid the food will go bad soon,” Shen Chen said with a chuckle.

Zhang Hongtao hadn’t thought about that. He slapped his head self-deprecatingly. “I forgot about that.”

After a while, with the roar of the electric generator, the hotel had its power back. As ordered by Shen Chen, Zhang Hongtao cut off the power supply for all the rooms except those on the sixteenth floor, the fourth floor, and all the corridors to ensure the overall distribution of solar energy.

After all this, Shen Chen said to Zhang Hongtao, who had sweat dripping down his face, “Since we’re here, don’t forget about the zombies in the cars!”

There was a smile on Shen Chen’s lips. It was like sunshine, passing through layers of concrete to shine into the cold underground parking lot and dispel the haze.

Zhang Hongtao was suddenly encouraged by Shen Chen’s smile. This was the first time in quite a while that he felt so positive about the future. He suddenly clenched his hand and said, “None of them will escape my fist!”

Bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of zombies smashing the car windows came from the underground parking lot. When a zombie finally broke the car window and popped its head out of the window, it was decapitated instantly.

Along the way, Zhang Hongtao and Shen Chen carried their weapons and made zombie heads dance and fall to the ground, their brains bursting out. The two left behind a gorgeous carpet of fresh blood in their wake.

Killing was an exciting job!

When they went to the sixteenth floor, Zhang Hongtao was still in a state of extreme excitement, and when the two opened the door, everyone inside the room cheered.

Everyone had a happy smile on their face. They greeted Shen Chen and Zhang Hongtao as if they were heroes, their mission having been completed perfectly.

Zhang Hongtao, however, suddenly fell into a nervous state after seeing the location of the shelter on TV. He looked at Shen Chen, who was still smiling calmly. Zhang Hongtao didn’t know if he had made the right choice.

“If they know that I advised Shen Chen not to go to the shelter, what will they do? Will they get mad at me?” Zhang Hongtao thought as he looked at the cheering people.

As if feeling Zhang Hongtao’s nervousness, Shen Chen gave him a quick glance, and the smile on his face turned even brighter.
