Chapter 4: The Broken Gun

She picked up the suitcase and was about to start working, but who would have thought that the zombie boss ignored her and walked right past her. If she hadn't dodged quickly, he would have almost bumped into her!

This, he didn't even notice her when he was face to face?!
Chen Er turned around abruptly and looked at the backpack behind him.

Under the zipper that was not completely closed, a pair of round little eyes looked at her innocently.

With his heart beating faster, Chen Er grabbed the bag from his back and held it in front of him, hugging her tightly: "Dapang, you are really my baby!"

Reaching out to touch Tuanzi's furry head, he glimpsed that it was holding a half-eaten bamboo joint in its two paws. Chen Er waved his hand:
"Eat it! Eat it if you want! After you finish eating, Mommy will take you to dig fresh ones!"

With his head raised, Chen Ru took a step forward, and his aura instantly reached two meters and eighty centimeters.

He failed after taking only two steps and ran back with a clatter.

I almost forgot about the flying hoe!
When I arrived at the supermarket, I saw a long line at the door from afar.

The boss sat at the cash register, and a large handwritten banner was hung at the door of the store:

[You can't scan the QR code to pay without internet, only cash and credit cards are accepted, don't squeeze or rush to line up, always pay attention to the surrounding movements and the status of people around you, and leave through the back door after shopping! ]

There were more than a dozen people in the team, and except for a few who supported each other and stood together, the others wished they could be as far away from each other as possible.

As I got closer, I heard someone crying in a low voice.

"I was almost bitten to death by him! He said he loved me one second ago, and the next second his face changed. His eyes turned scary red, and he looked at me like a wolf seeing meat! Ugh... It was so scary!"

The person who spoke was a young woman. The sister beside her hugged her and patted her shoulders: "It's okay, it's all over!"

Not only the women, but also a tall and strong man in the team was sobbing in a low voice:

"My mother didn't recognize me and bit me when she saw me! I didn't hit her on purpose, I was just too scared..."

It was very quiet, and the two people's voices were still obvious even though they lowered their voices.

Someone in the crowd was not easy to be annoyed and whispered:

“Cry, cry, cry, can you be quiet? Lure the zombies here for you to deal with? If you don’t want to live, don’t implicate others!”

The two of them stopped crying abruptly. They realized that this was not the place to cry and looked scared.

Although zombies' hearing has not evolved, it has not degenerated either, and they are instinctively attracted to the smell and sounds of living things.

No one spoke anymore.

Chen Ru quietly lined up at the end of the line. Following the wind, he heard the old man in front of him sigh softly: "This damn world has only been peaceful for less than a hundred years..."

Under the depressing atmosphere and the threat of zombies that could appear at any time, the long line quickly became shorter.

Just when it was Chen Er's turn, the lights suddenly went out and the bright supermarket fell into darkness.

There was a commotion in the team, and soon the boss wrote something on a piece of paper and held it up for everyone to see:
[Power outage! The card machine is not working. Those who have cash can come in first. Those who don’t have cash should go to the bank next door on the old street to withdraw cash. The bank is open 24 hours a day these days. The store still has stock, so don’t worry! ]

Chen Er, who never carries cash and whose pockets are cleaner than his face: "..." I suspect that you and Dian are targeting me together!

It was a lonely queue.

Chen Er left the suitcase and small hoe with the supermarket owner.

I stuffed the fruit knife in my pocket into the side pocket of my backpack where I could easily reach it, and then, holding the bag, I walked towards the BBC Bank on the old street next door with ease.

There was traffic jam all the way.

There were almost no pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, one or two were seen. They were all fully armed like her, running hurriedly to avoid the zombies.

The zombies came in groups, either chopping off car doors or store doors.

Screams and exclamations continued to come from all directions, and Chen Ru's scalp went numb.

Fortunately, with Dapang, all dangers were blocked one meter away from her.

On the way, he encountered a group of tough tattooed guys beating up zombies, and the flying sword was bounced back the same way it came.

When Chen Ru heard his elder brother's scream, his feeling of being overwhelmed felt much better.

We arrived at the old street safely.

Chen Ruo finally saw the officials who were maintaining order and the troops who were dispatched directly.

Gunshots rang out from time to time, and a safe passage was cleared on the overpass between the bank and the shopping mall opposite.

There were also police officers in the bank to maintain order. But the good times didn’t last long.

Chen Er finally got into the bank, waited in line, and withdrew a pitiful 1,500 yuan in cash. Just as he stuffed it into his backpack and was about to leave the bank, he ran into a bank robber!

Some unknown accident happened outside the bank. Gunshots and screams became more frequent, and all the police officers in the bank went out to provide support.

At this moment, a group of eight armed robbers rushed into the hall without even wearing hoods: "Don't move! Cover your head with your hands! Everyone, squat over there!"

After a burst of screams and panic, everyone squatted in a corner of the hall with their heads in their hands as the robbers requested.

The leader of the robbers and two of them looked at them with guns pointed at them, while the rest rushed to the counter with bags and stuffed the cash into their bags when they saw it.

It’s the end of the world, even robbers don’t wear hoods anymore.

Chen Er mixed in the crowd, put Da Pang on his knees, squatted with his hands on his head, and had time to think about random things.

She had a mysterious trust in Dapang.

But since this was the first time he had encountered such a thing, Chen Ru couldn't help but worry, fearing that the robbers would really shoot at the crowd. There were at least twenty or thirty people here, and Big Fatty's territory couldn't protect so many.

But what are you afraid of?

It seemed that someone in the crowd was caught doing something naughty, which annoyed the robber, who then pulled him out.

Chen Ru couldn't help but look up.

There was an old lady who hid money in her shoes. Her shoes were taken off by the robbers and a stack of money inside fell to the ground.

The robber leader took out his gun and shot the old lady in the foot as if to vent his anger.

"Ah!" There was no gunshot, but the old lady screamed, covered her feet and fell to the ground, blood flowing out!

The gun is a real gun, silenced!

Everyone was shocked by this scene.

The robber leader was not satisfied with his anger after shooting the old lady with one shot, so he pointed the gun at the old lady's head again, intending to make an example of her: "This is what will happen to anyone who dares not obey!"

Seeing that the robber's finger was already on the trigger, everyone's heart was in their throat.

Chen Ru's face changed.

Children who grow up in a peaceful and prosperous world cannot watch people die in front of them and remain indifferent.

Especially when you still have the ability to protect the other person.

She stood up suddenly, stretched out her hands to hold the bag, and rushed towards the aunt like a cannonball.

It was still in time. She was only about two meters away from the aunt. As long as she could get her into the fat man's range...

Not only Chen Er, several people in the crowd couldn't help but shout at the robbers:

"stop!"

"stop!"

A middle-aged man in sportswear and a young white-collar lady rushed out.

A handsome guy with a buzz cut, about 18 or 19 years old, in front was even faster than Chen Er, and his right hand was about to reach the old lady's arm!

"Click——"

Huh?
Chen Er, the uncle, and the young lady were stunned on the spot, and the handsome guy also stopped in time.

A group of hostages stared blankly at the gun in the robber's hand, as if... it was stuck?

Then, a more dramatic scene happened——

The robber leader pulled the trigger repeatedly but to no avail. He was so anxious that he was sweating. In a fit of rage, he slapped the gun on his other hand, and the gun tip flew out of his body!

The broken pieces fell to the ground, shattered into pieces, more plastic than plastic.

This scene seemed to be a signal, and the guns in the hands of the other robbers all started to jam and crack inexplicably.

Even one robber was slow to react, and the gun in his hand strangely began to drop chips, which scared him so much that he threw the gun away.

With a "pop", there are seven or eight more petals.
