39: Chapter 39 Airdrop Supplies

Ye Qingqing looked at Ah Huang, who was slumped on the ground gasping for air, and couldn't help but smile. As expected, training like this really required following a professional.

Ye Qingqing would only let Ah Huang run on the treadmill, but that small amount of training was nothing compared to this for Ah Huang.

"I'll go cook," Ye Qingqing said, catching her breath.

But Kong Ziyi beat Ye Qingqing to the kitchen.

"Beautiful Ye, I've already finished cooking!"

Kong Ziyi's words made Ye Qingqing feel a bit embarrassed.

Because it was agreed that Ye Qingqing would cook, but she hadn't fulfilled her promise for breakfast or lunch today.

Instead, Huo Sixian had been teaching her very seriously.

Ye Qingqing didn't want to owe Huo Sixian anything, especially in this Post-Apocalyptic World; once certain debts were owed, they were hard to repay.

"This... how embarrassing. It was clearly agreed that I would be the one cooking."

Hearing this, Kong Ziyi looked at Huo Sixian: "Don't worry about it, eat up. We still have plenty of food stockpiled; it's just one more mouth to feed."

Ye Qingqing was reluctant, but she thought Kong Ziyi probably figured she finished training too late to have time to cook.

So while eating, Ye Qingqing suggested to Huo Sixian: "Brother Yan, I'll train in the afternoon from now on. In the morning, I'll just run at home. I have a treadmill, so I'll have time to cook breakfast and lunch."

"If I keep eating for free, I don't think I can continue training."

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Huo Sixian understood her concerns and nodded without saying anything else.

Even when Ye Qingqing rushed to wash the dishes after eating, no one stopped her.

Just as Ye Qingqing finished washing the dishes, she noticed the Typhoon had suddenly stopped.

There was no warning; she just felt the rumbling sound around her suddenly vanish.

But then, Ye Qingqing realized—the Typhoon was gone!

Not just Ye Qingqing, everyone heard the Typhoon stop because the silence was so sudden it was hard to miss.

After the wind died down, Ye Qingqing suddenly heard joyful cheering.

Someone even opened a window and shouted: "It's finally over!"

"Oh my god!"

"Can things finally return to normal!"

Ye Qingqing went to the living room, exchanged looks with Huo Sixian and the others, and everyone moved to the window.

Unlike the people outside, Ye Qingqing, Huo Sixian, and the others didn't cheer. Instead, their expressions grew heavier.

Because everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was still a man-eating 'Things' outside.

That 'Things' would hear the noise, so those people who were shouting now...

Ye Qingqing didn't dare think further, because soon she heard the screams of people.

Meng Hangfei said in a low voice: "Is it really over?"

No one present could answer Meng Hangfei's question because they didn't know the standard answer.

A helicopter suddenly appeared in the sky.

A loudspeaker on the helicopter began to play on a loop.

Ye Qingqing originally thought the helicopter was there to announce something about the Temporary Relocation Point, but to her surprise, The Authorities didn't mention a word about it this time.

Everything said was about that 'Things'.

"Attention residents, an unprecedented virus has been discovered in our city, code-named 'Zombie'. The zombie virus can be transmitted through blood. If you find anyone around you whose skin has turned gray with black veins appearing on their face, please stay away immediately. If you cannot stay away, please attack their heads!"

"Please note, people infected with the zombie virus are no longer human. If you are scratched or bitten by a zombie, you will also be infected with the zombie virus."

"If you encounter a zombie, please attack their head, pierce it, or cut it off. Attacking other parts is useless. During this special period, residents, please improve your defensive capabilities!"

"In addition, The Authorities will drop Airdrop Supplies on the rooftops of various buildings. Survivors, please go to the top floor to collect them."

The loudspeaker on the helicopter looped many times. Soon after, Ye Qingqing heard the sound of Airdrop Supplies landing on the roof.

The people in the room looked at each other. Everyone had been trapped in the building for over half a month. Even those with food stockpiles were running low now.

With no water or electricity, survival was already difficult. They had expected a rescue from The Authorities yesterday, but then zombies appeared, so today's announcement didn't mention the Temporary Relocation Point at all.

Ye Qingqing even suspected that the resettlement point had already fallen.

So, this batch of supplies might be the last life-saving straw provided by The Authorities.

However, Ye Qingqing remembered the zombie corpses outside the Fire Escape on the 32nd floor and knew the building wasn't safe.

The 32nd floor was the top floor, and there were already so many zombies... what about downstairs?

Huo Sixian's face darkened, and he finally spoke: "Let's go, let's go up and check those supplies first."

It had to be said that living on the top floor was good; they were the first to get the supplies, which was very convenient.

When Ye Qingqing saw the supplies, she felt there was quite a lot, with everything included.

But most of the food was compressed biscuits.

Ye Qingqing actually felt that compressed biscuits were a good thing because such a small piece could provide so much energy to the human body.

In her previous life, Ye Qingqing was lucky enough to find a pack of compressed biscuits—very few, just four pieces.

But she had relied on those four compressed biscuits to survive for nearly half a month.

So, Ye Qingqing was actually very grateful for compressed biscuits. Seeing this box of compressed biscuits in the airdrop pack now, she felt quite moved.

In this airdrop pack, there weren't just compressed biscuits now; there were also Alcohol Stoves and alcohol blocks, and even plenty of clean mineral water.

"What should we do with these supplies?"

Ye Qingqing didn't want to take other people's survival resources, but the situation in this building...

If the zombies in the building weren't all killed, the survivors inside wouldn't be able to get the supplies, let alone survive.

"Let's move them down first. Leaving them on the roof isn't an option."

Huo Sixian said this, and no one present had any objections to the suggestion.

However, the Airdrop Supplies were far more than Ye Qingqing and the others had imagined. They had to make three trips to move all the supplies into the 32nd-floor hallway.

The zombies at the iron gate on the 32nd floor had been cleared yesterday, but they were gathering again now, possibly drawn by the noise of moving things on the 32nd floor.
