Li Yu and the others held submachine guns, watching Luo Hu and his men clear the obstruction at the gate.
About ten minutes later, all the debris at the gate was cleared away.
Sweat on his forehead, Luo Hu ran over in small steps and said, "Director Li, please take a look, is this acceptable now?
Are we getting directly into the car?"
Li Yu said with a hint of amusement, "What are you thinking? Move aside."
Luo Hu's expression changed as he said, "Didn't you say that if we cleaned it up, you'd let us join?"
Li Yu said, "I didn't agree to that just now. Move aside quickly."
Seeing that Li Yu was unyielding, Luo Hu quickly turned to Lao Lü beside him and said,
"We're all from Liberation City, and it's really hard for us out here now. Please help us plead with Director Li, say something."
Lao Lü was speechless. At Da Zhangshu Base, everyone listened to Li Yu. Why would Li Yu listen to him? Besides, even if you, Luo Hu, wanted to join, you needed to have an attitude.
Direct threats?
And he even blocked this gate. He really didn't understand why there were such people. When you're asking for something, and you have no leverage, how can you have the audacity to speak up?
Seeing that Lao Lü didn't answer him, Luo Hu grew anxious and quickly said,
"Lao Lü, you're being a bit ungrateful. I helped you before; when Liberation City was distributing supplies, I gave some."
Lao Lü hadn't said anything just now, but when Luo Hu brought that up, he immediately became displeased. Originally, in Liberation City, many small teams went out to search for supplies.
Lao Lü and his team were supposed to go out and search as well, but because of Director Zhang's earlier proposal for fair voting,
Lao Lü and his team, because they had guns, were assigned the duty of protecting Liberation City 24 hours a day.
However, because they protected Liberation City, they rarely went out to search for supplies. The supplies they needed daily had to be submitted by other team members.
This was something they had agreed upon from the start: any team going out to search for supplies would give a portion to Liberation City for common use and keep a portion for themselves.
Then, a portion of what was commonly held would be allocated to members like Lao Lü who protected Liberation City, meaning these supplies were what Lao Lü and his team deserved.
Later on, the members of the search teams became increasingly greedy, submitting fewer and fewer supplies.
All of this stemmed from Director Zhang's initial proposal for so-called peaceful co-governance.
This Luo Hu, every time he submitted supplies, he and two others were the biggest delinquents. Every time Lao Lü asked him for things, he had to ask several times.
Lao Lü said with a livid face,
"The portion you submitted was according to Liberation City's regulations at the time. Besides, if you're so capable, why don't you come and resist the zombie horde? Every time the zombie horde came, you people were the quickest to hide!"
That Luo Hu still wanted to say something, but Li Yu had lost all patience hearing this. All he wanted now was to return to the base as quickly as possible.
He didn't want to listen to them bickering here.
So he impatiently said, "Move aside. Last warning."
Luo Hu heard Li Yu's impatient tone and saw the few people who had been injured by the explosion behind him, so he said,
"Since Director Li is unwilling to let us join, then so be it.
Let's be reasonable now. You injured a few of our brothers with that explosion. How do we account for this?
It was our fault for blocking the gate earlier.
But we just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to you; our intention wasn't malicious. Also, we've cleaned this place up.
How about this, Director Li, we won't block you anymore, but you must give us an explanation for injuring our brothers."
Hearing this, Li Yu suddenly found it amusing. He turned to look at Li Hang and the others, finding that they also had expressions of disbelief.
In this world, there are many kinds of people.
But there are always some people who have no sense of self-awareness.
When negotiating with people, you at least need some leverage!
What is your leverage, Luo Hu? Why are you so confident?
Have you not been beaten enough in the apocalypse yet?
Li Yu deeply felt that it was a miracle Luo Hu had survived until now.
Li Yu said, "Did you take the tiger's body?"
Luo Hu said, "What tiger?"
Taking a deep breath, Li Yu said, "You are truly lucky."
After speaking, Li Yu shouted, "Get lost! Lao Lü is here today, so I won't kill you."
Luo Hu stubbornly raised his neck, looking at Li Yu and his group defiantly: "Even in the apocalypse, you should still be reasonable.
If people become unreasonable and disregard propriety and integrity, then living like that is just being a walking corpse."
Da Pao pressed down on the gun in his hand, then raised it, then pressed it down again, his expression as if he had eaten shit.
Li Yu said nothing more, turned his head and said, "F*** you."
Then the submachine gun in his hand began to rattle.
Li Hang and Da Pao behind him had long been unable to restrain themselves and fired their guns one after another.
Bang bang bang bang bang ~
Seeing this, Lao Lü also opened fire, sweeping at these people.
"Kill them all, don't let a single one escape," Li Yu shouted.
Da Pao and Li Hang exchanged glances. This was their big brother's original self. They had just chatted so much with them, and they thought their big brother had changed.
Killing them all, that was Li Yu's style.
Those who don't know their own worth and haven't encountered too many setbacks are just lucky; it doesn't mean they are right.
Someone will always come along to teach them a lesson.
Luo Hu's head was blown off first, and the others behind him also fell to the ground, shot.
There were a total of 12 people, including the two Li Yu initially killed with a grenade. All 12 bodies were there.
Li Yu walked around the area and saw no one else present.
Finally, he called out to Li Hang and Da Pao, who were still delivering finishing blows: "Stop finishing them off, they're already dead like this, why are you still stabbing them?"
Perhaps influenced by him, Da Pao and Li Hang seemed to have a somewhat twisted violence.
Get in the car.
There was no need to deal with these bodies; after decapitation, they wouldn't turn into zombies.
After they left, the snow would naturally bury these bodies.
In the car, Li Hang wiped the long knife in his hand with a cloth, saying,
"Brother, why did you waste so much time talking to them just now? You could have just shot them to solve it. Why didn't you kill them right away, especially since they blocked the gate here?
It looked like they were waiting for us to get out of the car to ambush us. Why did you plan to let them go later?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu leisurely said, "Did you see the tiger's body just now?"
As soon as this was said, everyone seemed to understand something, but only partially.
Seeing everyone's confusion, Li Yu explained, "Originally, I wasn't going to kill them. One reason was to give them a way out for Lao Lü's sake."
Li Hang and Da Pao both curled their lips, not believing him for a second.
Li Yu continued, "On the other hand, the tiger's body was missing. I suspected it was them just now, but they denied it, so I don't know the truth.
One reason was to let them leave to see if they took the tiger's body. If it wasn't them, then there should be other people present.
The other reason was to make all of them come out and clear the gate, gathering all their people, so it would be easier to deal with them later and prevent any stragglers."
"So that's how it is."
"Understood."
"I knew it."
Li Yu looked at the snow outside the window, his eyes thoughtful: If it wasn't them, who took the tiger's body?
