117: The power of dog-hating perfume

Bang—!

"Ah!!!"

Jiang Fei shot through the old man's palm and said coldly, "The Rescue Team and Patrol Team are under orders to catch White Poison Scorpion. Please cooperate with our mission and keep your hands to yourselves."

Most people with dirty thoughts, seeing Jiang Fei's ruthless methods, dismissed their ill intentions.

She had a gun, and she was an official. They couldn't afford to provoke her.

But a small number of people still scanned Jiang Fei with lewd eyes.

Such a young and beautiful girl, they wouldn't mind dying for her!

Lu Yu shielded Jiang Fei behind him. "You go wait for us in the car. I'll help you catch your share. Don't stay here."

The factory building was crowded, and one careless move could lead to someone being taken advantage of.

Killing too many would be difficult to explain to the higher-ups.

The other two team members had no objections.

"Jiang Fei, listen to him. It's not safe for a girl here."

"If worst comes to worst, you can handle the White Poison Scorpion outside. We'll contact you by walkie-talkie if anything happens."

Jiang Fei nodded.

She really couldn't stand the smell of stinky feet in the factory building.

Coming outside, Jiang Fei took off her mask to breathe, turned on her flashlight, and searched for White Poison Scorpion nearby.

Some people, finding the factory building too hot, slept on the ground outside.

Seeing the clean and beautiful Jiang Fei, they immediately lost their sleepiness.

A nearby man, with a lewd smile, struck up a conversation. "Little sister, coming to the Common sleeping area so late, are you looking for someone to keep you company?"

Jiang Fei raised her gun.

The man's large yellow teeth, which had been bared, immediately retracted, and he promptly lay on the ground, playing dead.

She didn't even say she had a gun!!!

The people who had been watching the commotion, upon realizing Jiang Fei had a gun, all lay down and continued sleeping.

They had everything in their dreams! And they wouldn't get shot!

Not finding any White Poison Scorpion, Jiang Fei walked forward, intending to check the outside of the adjacent factory building.

But as she passed a corner, she heard a hoarse voice.

"Jiang Fei..."

The man, curled up in the corner, weakly crawled out.

As the flashlight beam shone on him, Jiang Fei saw who it was.

Xu Yichen.

He was skin and bones, his lips were chapped and bleeding, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his greasy hair was plastered to his face, making him look repulsive.

"Please... give me a sip of water..."

"Just one sip..."

Xu Yichen's humble plea was completely devoid of his previous arrogance.

Each large factory building only had two taps, and he couldn't compete with those people. These past few days, he had survived on his own urine.

If he didn't drink water soon, he wouldn't even have urine left.

"Coincidentally, I'm also thirsty. I'll give it to you after I finish drinking."

Jiang Fei took out a bottle of official electrolyte water from her satchel and slowly drank it in front of Xu Yichen.

Xu Yichen kept making swallowing motions, pretending he was also drinking water.

Clatter!

The bottle was thrown on the ground. Xu Yichen excitedly picked it up, but found it empty.

"Where's the water?!"

"Finished."

Jiang Fei smiled maliciously, "The bottle is yours. I keep my word."

"Jiang Fei, you're fucking messing with me again! I'm going to kill you!"

Xu Yichen struggled to get up and lunged at Jiang Fei, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a cold flash.

A sharp bone-chopping knife severed his arm.

"Ah!"

Jiang Fei swung the knife again with force, chopping off Xu Yichen's other arm as if whittling a stick.

Xu Yichen fell into a pool of blood with a thud, wailing in pain, much like a pig waiting to be slaughtered for the New Year.

Without both arms and hands, she wondered how this bastard would survive.

Remembering the dog-repellent perfume in the Supermarket warehouse, Jiang Fei took it out and sprayed Xu Yichen once.

Time to test its effectiveness.

A few minutes later, an intense sour stench emanated from Xu Yichen.

It was like fruit that had spoiled and rotted in high temperatures, mixed with sour leftovers.

Or like hundreds of rotten eggs exploding simultaneously in a narrow, sealed space, and someone, suffocating, had sprayed a scent to remove the smell.

The two intertwined smells of fragrance and stench made one want to die on the spot.

Xu Yichen couldn't scream anymore and lay on the ground, vomiting uncontrollably.

Jiang Fei, covering her nose, ran far away, but ultimately couldn't suppress the churning in her stomach and vomited.

She now knew what it meant to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of her own.

"Ugh—"

That smell was too disgusting!

Let alone dogs, anyone with a sense of smell couldn't stand it!

Coincidentally, Yin Jing was catching White Poison Scorpion here and noticed Jiang Fei vomiting, so she rushed over.

"What's wrong with you? Are you suffering from heatstroke?"

"No, I..."

Before she could finish, Yin Jing had already opened a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water and poured it down Jiang Fei's throat.

"I don't have any more heatstroke medicine, only Huoxiang Zhengqi water left. Make do with it."

The bitter and pungent taste bloomed on her taste buds, and Jiang Fei vomited again.

Just then, the walkie-talkie on her waist rang.

Lu Yu: "Jiang Fei, where are you?"

Yin Jing took the walkie-talkie and gave the address. "She has heatstroke."

Jiang Fei wanted to explain, but she was too nauseous to speak.

By the time Lu Yu and the other two arrived, Jiang Fei was almost exhausted from vomiting, leaning against the wall, drinking electrolyte water from her satchel.

Yin Jing was worried. "You just vomited out all the medicine. Should you drink another dose?"

"No!" Jiang Fei said quickly.

"I don't have heatstroke. I was suffocated by a survivor, right over there at the corner!"

Team member: "When we came over, we did smell a stench and almost threw up."

"How could anyone smell so bad?" Yin Jing, not believing it, walked over to check.

Less than half an hour later, she ran back, falling to her knees on the ground.

"Ugh—!"

"He seems, ugh, to have smeared himself with feces, ugh!"

"Take this." Jiang Fei handed Yin Jing a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water.

Yin Jing: "..."

She was wrong.

Eventually, Yin Jing recovered with the help of electrolyte water and said weakly, "I've never seen anyone smell so bad."

"That person also had both arms cut off, and his face and body were covered in vomit. He was lying on the ground motionless. I don't know if he's dead or not. Should we... go confirm?"

Looking at Jiang Fei and Yin Jing, who were slightly pale, the team members said tactfully.

"I think we can skip it. Our main task tonight is to catch White Poison Scorpion."

"People die in the Common sleeping area every day. Let the Patrol Team responsible for this area come and check during the day."

"Then everyone, let's continue working." Yin Jing decisively walked in the opposite direction of the corner.

She didn't want to smell it again!

Lu Yu looked at Jiang Fei. "I'll take you back to rest."

"It's fine, I'm much better. I can work."

Jiang Fei picked up the trash tongs she had just thrown on the ground and casually opened a bag of compressed biscuits to eat.

She was hungry from vomiting.

Seeing Jiang Fei finish the biscuits and then take out a sausage to eat, Lu Yu silently opened a bottle of water for her to prevent her from choking.

Currently, the number of White Poison Scorpion was small, and the Rescue Team and Patrol Team worked until dawn, with each person only catching three or four.

She still had to work through the night, so Jiang Fei temporarily gave up going to the store and went back to Mingshang Apartment Complex to catch up on sleep.

Su Liuyuan and Zhou Wanqing knew she had been on missions recently and didn't disturb her.

A week passed in a flash.

The Rescue Team and Patrol Team finished catching the White Poison Scorpion in the Safety Shelter and sprayed pesticides in the areas where they had appeared.

Protection was also put in place outside the Safety Shelter.

Since the White Poison Scorpion could no longer enter and pose a threat to the Safety Shelter, the officials gave the members of both teams a holiday, and each person also received a box of supplies.

It was potatoes and cooling items.

As for Xu Yichen, he stank himself to death.

Jiang Fei finally had time to go to the store.

She loaded up the goods and drove the old truck to Ping An Supermarket.

The temperature reached 47 degrees Celsius, so hot that no one wanted to come out.

The temperature would drop by three or four degrees at night, and everyone was waiting for nightfall to buy things, so Su Liuyuan changed the operating hours.

Open daily from 16:00 to 23:00.

From 20:00 to 21:30, the store would close for a break, allowing them to go home to collect and store water.

Upon entering the store, Jiang Fei saw that the shelves for fruits and vegetables were empty.

Su Liuyuan, Zhou Wanqing, and the others were bored, playing poker around the cashier counter.

"Boss!" Zhou Wanqing was the first to spot Jiang Fei and called out in surprise.

"I've got new stock. Come out and help me move it."

Jiang Fei walked outside, opened the truck's cargo compartment, and she, Su Liuyuan, and the others moved the goods into the store.

A total of 5 boxes of dried vegetables, 5 boxes of electrolyte water, 5 boxes of food, 3 boxes of mushrooms, and 20 lively green shrimp.

Jiang Fei put the green shrimp in water buckets, and Su Liuyuan poured them into two glass tanks.

"Captain, you're amazing! I thought they were small green shrimp, but they're all so plump!" Su Liuyuan excitedly looked at the green shrimp in the glass tanks.

"Dried vegetables can be a bit cheaper than fresh vegetables, but the price of mushrooms and green shrimp absolutely cannot be low."

"One green shrimp is at least 3000 grams of gold, and if bought in pairs, it'll be 10000 grams, because they can be raised at home."

Jiang Fei: "You decide the price. I trust you won't lose money."

"Alright, then I'll go put up the price tags. When I go home tonight, I'll bring you the gold I've earned recently."

Su Liuyuan was about to go get the price tag stickers and a pen when the store door was pushed open.

Yao Jin, with a large bump on his forehead, walked in angrily.

"Jiang Fei! Do I have a blood feud with you?!"
