74: Threaten her? He's not qualified!
"Can't even get food and you still want cigarettes? Smoke, smoke, smoke, might as well smoke yourself to death. Quit it," Si Nan replied directly.
Zhuo Guangshun: "---"
"Such a big temper during the New Year?" He laughed. Anyway, making Si Nan unhappy made him happy. Who told her to be a black-hearted profiteer?
Prepare three times the supplies in advance? Bullshit!
Anyway, Si Nan did nothing. She continued eating her New Year's Eve dinner, habitually browsing major news channels as usual. A City's news station had already been cut off; now, only official channels and major first-tier cities' stations were broadcasting.
However, the situation was equally terrible. Safe zones were being overrun by Zombie hordes every day, countless people were bitten to death, and the number of Zombies was increasing at an extremely fast rate daily.
Currently, the safest were the fishermen living on the sea and those wealthy individuals with private Yachts.
These people held three inherent advantages: First, those who live on boats as their homes would stockpile a lot of supplies in advance whenever they docked, ensuring they had enough necessities for going out to sea.
Second, they were already detached from land. Currently, clumsy Zombie hordes didn't know how to swim, so naturally couldn't attack them.
Third, their communication systems were highly developed. The moment there was any trouble on land, they would be the first to know. On the very first day of the virus outbreak, they had already stopped docking.
Moreover, a few particularly smart boat owners, before others could react, directly invested money to monopolize the mobile supermarkets at sea, seizing the initiative and stockpiling a great deal of supplies for themselves.
Afterwards, they would find a safe harbor to anchor, conserve energy, and begin enjoying their luxurious lives.
However, the sea they considered safe was only temporary. When the black blood of Zombies flowed into the sea, and as it became more and more, the fish and other creatures living in the sea would become the Zombie Beasts that would take their lives.
Thinking of this, Si Nan looked up and glanced at the pitch-black sea outside the window. That was A City's largest import-export port. Many beautiful Yachts, merchant ships, cargo ships, fishing boats, etc., as tall as buildings, were anchored on the sea.
Every boat was brightly lit. She could vaguely see people on the Yachts, all dressed in gorgeous formal wear, handsome men and beautiful women dancing waltzes and reveling.
"Cheers, hope you enjoy yourselves~" She raised her glass to those people, took a sip of fragrant wine, elegantly cut a piece of steak, put it in her mouth, and closed her eyes to savor the deliciousness of the steak.
When she opened her eyes, the steak in her mouth almost fell out. The Yacht opposite had already fallen, and a terrifying scene was unfolding: three super-Giant Whale Zombie Beasts were swallowing the dancing people one by one.
Under the spotlight, a beautiful woman in a red gown was bitten in half by a Giant Whale Zombie Beast. Screaming, she was sent into its mouth full of saw-like teeth, which sprayed flesh and blood with every opening and closing.
Screams of terror traveled from the sea to the Residential Area. Survivors filmed all this and posted it in the Property Owner Group, with only a handful of people commenting.
After the Residential Area fell, the Property Owners became dispirited, and fewer and fewer people were active.
Now, what was discussed most was: "I'm still alive, but I can't hold on for many more days. The edible food at home was finished long ago. Now I've started eating the genuine leather sofa. I'm grateful for my past cleverness in buying a genuine leather sofa."
Reply: "Smart move, bro. My wife insisted on buying a fabric sofa. Now, looking at the sofa, I want to throw her and the sofa out together. The only good thing is it can be smashed and used for firewood. I've already smashed it to pieces."
Next post: "You're all smart. My wife is a big fool; she insisted on buying a wrought-iron sofa. It can't be eaten or burned, so in a fit of anger, I pushed her out.
Facts have proven she loves me. Even after turning into a Zombie, she still squats outside my door, unwilling to leave."
"Beast!" someone cursed.
Someone above retorted: "Seems like you have a lot of food at home. Have the guts to tell me your apartment number."
Someone else praised: "Thanks to the bro above, you saved me from the quagmire of struggle. I immediately threw my mother-in-law outside to feed the Zombies. She eats a lot and nags nonstop. If she doesn't die, I can't survive. Little brother dedicates a song 'Courage' to you, bro, also as the battle anthem for me pushing my mother-in-law out."
"You're all beasts!" that person continued cursing.
"You son of a bitch, have the guts to say your apartment number."
Si Nan just watched these three men tear into each other, treating it as a comedy skit on the New Year's Eve Gala while eating her dinner, thoroughly amused. While washing dishes, a sudden loud "BANG!" came from within the Residential Area. The surveillance system didn't sound an alarm, so she was sure it wasn't from her house.
She quickly dried her hands and checked the surveillance. Her breath caught, and her beautiful eyes widened in anger as she saw a formidable Armored Vehicle crashing through the iron gate, making a beautiful drift turn towards the direction of her Villa.
She hurriedly picked up a High-Powered Telescope to observe closely: that light gray, top-grade hard shell, its agile and graceful movement when in motion—she fell in love at first sight.
Estimated length around 4.5 meters, chassis tracks equipped with dual wheels and eight tires; even if one blew out during travel, it wouldn't affect movement. The upper body of the vehicle had six first-grade external bulletproof glass windows, each specially equipped with a firing port.
The interior Space was large, with the driver and passenger seats, it should be able to seat 8 people. Majestic, beautiful, and badass!
"Hahaha~" Si Nan put on her Aviation Protective Suit, grabbed her weapons, and rushed downstairs with a loud laugh.
Outside, the Armored Vehicle had already knocked away countless Zombies and was parked steadily at the courtyard gate, its horn blaring incessantly.
Si Nan shouted excitedly in the yard, "Stop honking, it's deafening! Let me see your driving skills. Do a beautiful 360-degree spin on the spot."
Deng Jiude, who had fought his way here after a day and night of battling from the driver's seat, almost died of anger hearing this. "Add a roast chicken and I'll let you see my driving skills. Otherwise, I'll drive away with the vehicle."
Si Nan didn't even give him a glance, decisively turning around to walk back. "Oh, I see. Then drive away."
Threaten her? He's not qualified enough!
No matter how good the Armored Vehicle was, she could still get one by taking some risks. A City had Police Stations and Military Bases. It's just that she didn't know yet whether these places had fallen; otherwise, she would have already taken action.
She had so many vehicles stored in her Space. She could drive them out one after another to clash head-on with Zombie hordes. It would be enough to drive around the vast A City a hundred times. No need to be threatened by two nearly dead people?
Hmph, they miscalculated!
Deng Jiude smiled wearily and immediately surrendered. "Truly a unique girl. Old Zhuo wasn't exaggerating. Alright, alright, I surrender. Consider it a New Year's joke to amuse you. Watch closely, girl."
On the spot, the originally stationary Armored Vehicle suddenly started up, shook off several Zombies climbing onto its body, and slowly began to spin. The speed increased faster and faster, stirring up the thick white snow on the ground, flinging the surrounding Zombies that had just pounced away once more.
Then, with a beautiful emergency brake, it stopped abruptly on the spot, its front precisely facing Si Nan's courtyard gate.
Suddenly, the courtyard gate opened and closed in an instant. Si Nan, holding a shovel with both hands, appeared like a ghost in front of the vehicle's hood.
