Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 196: Commercial District ( 1 )

After he finished his words, Gu Shaoze moved his hand from her mouth to the back of her neck. With a soft tug, he pulled her closer and kissed her.

Feeling the sudden warmth of his lips, Rong Mo'er's eyes widened in shock.

Taking advantage of her surprise, Gu Shaoze pry opened her lips and deepened the kiss, ignoring the stunned Eagle Team members around them.

Eventually, one of the soldiers couldn't hold back and said, "Young man, we are still here, you know."

That snapped Rong Mo'er back to her senses. Embarrassed, she pushed Gu Shaoze away. He let her go, afraid she would get upset and ignore him.

Flustered and unable to face anyone, Rong Mo'er shut her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Meanwhile, Gu Shaoze licked his lips, savoring her taste and shot an unhappy glare at the soldier who had interrupted him.

Seeing this, the soldiers glared back, envy clear in their eyes. They had been busy protecting the country and remained single for so many years. Now, a brat was showing off his affection right under their noses. How could they possibly tolerate that?

At noon, the Phantom team finally entered the main road and headed toward the city center. When the survivors saw this, they started to feel restless. But thanks to Shen Jinzhe's warning earlier, no one dared to question them.

Twenty minutes later, they finally stopped at the roadside. Coming out of the car, Qin Luzi walked toward the last vehicle.

Seeing him approach, Jin Xuyan lowered the window and asked, "What's going on?"

"Captain, the road ahead is blocked and broken. We can't use the cars."

"Are there any zombies around?" Jin Xuyan asked.

Qin Luzi nodded and replied, "There are some wandering zombies on the road, but they can't get past due to the cars blocking it. But those trapped in the buildings are countless."

Hearing this, Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "We will go on foot."

"Captain, what about the survivors?" Qin Luzi asked again.

After thinking for a moment, Jin Xuyan said, "We will clear out a building and let them stay there. In a few hours, someone will come to pick them up."

Hearing this, Qin Luzi assumed the Captain had contacted the base and nodded. He turned and went to inform the rest of the team.

Receiving the order, Shen Jinzhe came out of the bus and said, "Everyone, get out. We will go on foot."

The moment the survivors heard this, their faces turned pale as fear surged in their hearts. They were unwilling to come out, but under Shen Jinzhe's sharp gaze, they had no choice but to follow orders.

After everyone came out of the buses and cars, Feng Yun collected the vehicles and stored them in his space. While they were arranging the survivors, Jiao Lizhi walked to the nearest car blocking the road.

"Roar!"

The moment she approached, a rotten hand slammed against the window as two zombies inside roared at her.

She looked at them without changing her expression before glancing at the fuel meter. She then checked the fuel cap and saw it had been opened.

Just like in her previous life, the fuel in the car's tank had already been pumped out by the soldiers.

Although there were gas stations, the number of zombies in the surrounding area was too high for the soldiers to handle. So they pumped out fuel from abandoned cars.

Because they often went out to find supplies and search for survivors, their fuel consumption was very high. To avoid having more zombies after the second rain, she had to help them evacuate.

In her previous life, many people had been unable to evacuate due to a lack of gas—even if they had enough vehicles.

In this life, she would help them clear out a gas station so they could refuel. That way, she might be able to change the fate of her hometown—Lin'an City.

While she was thinking, Jin Xuyan walked over and asked, "Ah Zhi, what are you thinking about?"

Coming back to her senses, she said, "Brother Yan, do you know where the nearest gas station to the temporary survivor base is?"

Jin Xuyan thought for a moment and replied, "There's a small gas station near the border."

"It's not that base. I'm talking about the one in the central city," Jiao Lizhi clarified.

Hearing this, Jin Xuyan said, "Oh, that one."

He thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, there's a highway near that base, and there's a rest area on the highway. The nearest gas station should be in that rest area."

After he said this, he looked at her and asked, "Ah Zhi, what are you planning to do?"

"Brother Yan, last time, because of the lack of gas, many people couldn't evacuate and died. I was thinking... if we help them get fuel, maybe they will be able to survive this time."

Raising his eyebrows, Jin Xuyan replied in an affirming tone, "So, Ah Zhi wants to help them?"

Jiao Lizhi nodded adn said, "They saved my life before. I want to repay them this time."

Since it was something she wanted to do, Jin Xuyan had no objections. He brushed her hair on her forehead and said, "We can clear out the zombies in that area after we visit the commercial district."

"Okay."

Jin Xuyan looked at her for a moment before he took out a hair tie from his pocket and said, "Ah Zhi, turn around."

Jiao Lizhi didn't know what he wanted to do, but she still listened to him. With her back facing him, she felt his fingers brush against her scalp as he tied up her hair, sending shivers to her body.

His palm was calloused, but his movements were gentle. He finished tying up her hair without tugging at it. After almost two weeks, her hair had grown so long that it nearly reached her waist.

Once he was done, Jin Xuyan leaned down and kissed her cheek before saying, "It's done."
