Chapter 135 Dodder Flower 8
Chapter 135 Dodder Flower 8
Outside, several strong men said they wanted to have breakfast with Xie Kai, but they didn't bring out any food.
Instead, the look in his eyes when he looked at Xie Kai and Zhang Xiaolu was fierce and sharp, as if he wanted to eat someone.
The burly man in the lead patted Xie Kai on the shoulder and almost knocked him to the ground.
"Little brother, there are more than a dozen children in our car. They have all run out of food. Can you give them some help?"
Xie Kai swallowed hard, looking like he was about to cry. "We don't have that much food, we really can't help you!"
Just at this moment, Fu Chan came over with Lin Zhijie.
"Xie Kai, give them some. There are indeed a lot of children on the bus. They are so pitiful when they are hungry."
Jiang Mei agreed: "Yes, yes, it's very hard for us to take care of the children!"
Xie Kai knew that no matter whether there were children in the car or not, there were so many people on the other side that even if they shared the food, it would not be enough for them to eat, and they would still go hungry.
He didn't want to agree, but Zhang Xiaolu held his hand and said, "Akai, just help them. It can be considered as a good relationship."
She pointed at Lin Zhijie and said, "Look, Senior Lin is with them. This shows that they are not bad people. We can get through this together."
The expression on Lin Zhijie's face was a little forced, but he didn't say much.
Lin Zhijie was well-known for his prestige in school. Xie Kai was half-believing and half-doubting, so he took out the car keys and opened the trunk.
"We need to eat ourselves, so we can't give you too much—"
"Eh? Stop grabbing, stop grabbing, leave some for us!"
The moment the trunk was opened, several big men pushed Xie Kai aside and scrambled for food. Within a few minutes, they had emptied the trunk.
Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan were stunned and didn't know where to start to stop them.
Only the pale and skinny couple opposite took nothing and stood aside, wiping away their tears frantically.
Several strong men carried things and walked towards the bus. Jiang Lan and Jiang Mei restrained Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan.
"The kids are starving. Do you mind if we take a little extra? You're all grown-ups, and you're really impressive for supporting yourselves!"
Fu Chan was delighted by the praise, "No, I learned this from Senior Lin. I just enjoy helping others!"
Lin Zhijie couldn't help but glance at Fu Chan, the meaning in his eyes was hard to describe.
Jiang Huai stood beside Lin Zhijie without knowing when.
He lowered his voice, "...are they human traffickers?"
Lin Zhijie nodded, "We need to find a way to..."
He had just started talking when Jiang Lan came over with her arms folded. "Mr. Lin, please stay in the car and take care of the children while they have breakfast."
Lin Zhijie and Jiang Huai exchanged glances.
Those men almost emptied Xie Kai's car. Xie Kai was holding instant noodles and dared not say a word in front of the group of robbers.
But Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter and kept chatting with Jiang Mei.
He tugged at Zhang Xiaolu's sleeve and said, "Let's go while they're moving their things, Xiaolu!"
There is absolutely no chance of winning if we fight with this group of people. It doesn’t matter if the supplies are lost, but the car cannot be lost. If we run quickly, there is still hope.
Zhang Xiaolu had been brainwashed by Jiang Mei. "Akai, can we stay and take care of the kids together? They've been hungry for three days..."
Xie Kai felt powerless, like playing the lute to a cow, but he couldn't leave Zhang Xiaolu alone.
The result was that after those big men finished moving the things, they snatched away Xie Kai's instant noodles, slurped them up in two mouthfuls, and didn't even leave a sip of the soup.
"Thanks, little brother. There's another car over there. Let's go over and get some more."
Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan gave their instant noodles to the middle-aged couple themselves.
But the couple kept crying and shaking their heads, "Good girl, you guys eat, we are not hungry, we have already eaten."
Then Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan gave their shares to Jiang Lan and Jiang Mei.
They happily said "you're welcome" and prepared to go back to cook another bowl of instant noodles. When they walked to the side of the car, they found that there was not even a piece of compressed biscuit left inside.
Lin Zhijie and the children were locked in the bus.
Several strong men walked towards the SUV where Qiao Chu was.
Seeing the girl sitting in the car, the men's eyes lit up instantly and they whistled in vulgar and obscene ways.
"Hey, little sister, you're all alone? Do you want to play a field game with your brothers?"
Because the car was not started and Qiao Chu was sitting in the passenger seat, the grown men were not on guard at all.
With a lychee in his mouth, Qiao Chu turned over and sat in the driver's seat. He inserted and turned the key, stepped on the accelerator, and the high-performance off-road vehicle rushed out directly.
"Oh!"
The two men were knocked away directly, and Qiao Chu ran over them without blinking.
Seeing this, the others hurriedly ran out to the street, but unfortunately, it was too late -
Later, Jiang Huai snatched Xie Kai's car keys and drove the car recklessly.
Several strong men were knocked to the ground and twisted and crawled, some with broken legs and some with broken ribs. It was a bloody crime scene.
Jiang Huai was so anxious that he jumped out of the car and ran towards Qiao Chu without caring whether anyone was killed or not.
He remembered Qiao Chu saying that she couldn't drive.
He left the car keys with her because he was worried that something might happen to him and someone else might use the car keys to open the door and harm her.
When the off-road vehicle rushed out just now, Jiang Huai's heart stopped in fear.
Fortunately, after rushing for a distance, the off-road vehicle braked suddenly and stopped in the middle of the road.
Qiao Chu quickly took the bottle cap and poured a few drops of mineral water into his eyes, blinking frantically, looking like a tearful, terrified person.
She opened the car door and threw herself into Jiang Huai's arms, crying, "What should I do? Jiang Huai, I hit someone to death, I killed someone..."
Jiang Huai listened to her weak cries, his heart tightened, and he stroked her hair with his hands, as if he was stroking the fur of a frightened cat.
"It's okay, I'm here. They deserve to die. They're all human traffickers. Chuchu did a good job. She saved more than a dozen children."
In the bus, Lin Zhijie covered a little boy's eyes and waited for Jiang Huai to bring the key to open the door.
As a result, he saw Jiang Huai hit the human trafficker, then rushed straight to the SUV and hugged a girl for five minutes.
There is no sign of stopping yet.
Lin Zhijie simply pulled two curtains to block the front of the bus to block the children's sight.
The traffickers loaded a lot of food into the car, and he woke up the children who had been hungry for two days.
"Children, get up and eat. There is plenty of food today and everyone will be able to eat their fill."
Children are at the age when they love to eat snacks. When they see something delicious, they don’t care about anything else and just tear open the package and gobble it up.
The boy sitting in Lin Zhijie's arms asked curiously, "Brother Lin, where are the other uncles and Aunt Lan and Aunt Mei?"
Lin Zhijie smiled bitterly, "Xiao Tao, the uncles are out looking for food. They'll be back when they find plenty."
"Aunt Lan and Aunt Mei are outside and will be up soon."
Xiao Tao swallowed the soft bread and leaned close to Lin Zhijie's ear, "Brother, I have a secret to tell you."
Lin Zhijie was very patient with the child, "You go ahead."
Xiao Tao covered his mouth and whispered, "I know, uncles are all bad guys, they... they ate my sister... Woo waa ...
The little boy lay in Lin Zhijie's arms, crying breathlessly.
He wiped his nose and tears on Lin Zhijie. "Brother, I just saw it. The bad guy was hit by a car. There was so much blood... I want to take another look, just one look, okay?"
Lin Zhijie knew that Xiaotao had a younger sister.
On the first day he went out to look for food, he met the girl named Xiaohan.
That night, the kindergarten gate was closed, the iron gate was chained, and two or three slow-moving zombies were wandering outside.
The director and his wife leaned against the iron gate and cried inconsolably.
There was a fire burning on the small playground, five men and two women were sitting around it, and the aroma of barbecue was wafting everywhere.
After weighing the two options, he decided to find a way to save the kindergarten children.
The companions in the B&B are all healthy adults with all their limbs intact. If he doesn't go back for too long, they should find a way to save themselves.
The school bus was parked in the parking lot outside the park. Lin Zhijie searched for two days before he found the school bus driver who had turned into a zombie.
During this period, there was another missing child in the kindergarten. I heard her name was Xiaoyu, and she was also a girl.
Obviously, zombies are not that scary. As long as they come out, any normal person can deal with them.
But there are always some devils who like to hide in their shells and live in misery, abandoning morality, shame, and humanity...
Lin Zhijie drove the school bus outside and looted a truckload of food before the human traffickers agreed to open the door.
He agreed to help the traffickers find enough food on the condition that they would not touch the children anymore.
The group of human traffickers originally wanted to kidnap a few children, but something unexpected happened and they hid in the kindergarten.
There is definitely no one who wants children in this world. They are holding the lives of these little brats in their hands. Why not pick up a highly intelligent labor force for free?
There were five men among them and they were not worried about Lin Zhijie playing tricks.
So that's how Lin Zhijie got involved with a group of human traffickers.
The incident happened suddenly, and Jiang Lan and Jiang Mei were so frightened that their legs went weak and they fell to the ground.
Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan were not in much better condition. Their faces were as pale as paper and they covered their mouths in horror.
Zhang Xiaolu held Xie Kai's hand tightly, "Ah, Akai, Qiao Chu and the others, they killed someone!"
Fu Chan couldn't help but excuse the traffickers, "The teachers love the children so much, what did they do?!"
For the first time, Xie Kai acted disgusted with his girlfriend and started cursing at Fu Chan as well.
"Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid?! Qiao Chu knew to drive his car and hit someone, but what about you? You sold yourself out and let the criminals count the money!"
He was so angry that he picked up a steel rod and went to deal with those half-dead human traffickers.
"You're the one who ate my instant noodles, right?! I told you to!"
"If you want to steal my things, I'll let you do it!"
Xie Kai beat those bastards to death and helped Jiang Huai dispose of the bodies.
The skinny middle-aged couple opposite were the director and his wife. Seeing the evildoer getting his comeuppance, they hugged each other and cried with joy.
Then he explained to Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan, and expressed the truth that he had been holding back for half a month.
"God has mercy on us! If it weren't for Xiaolin's kindness, the children wouldn't be alive today..."
Zhang Xiaolu and Fu Chan were frightened after hearing this. Thinking back on their previous behavior, they wanted to slap themselves hard.
Fu Chan even took out a crystal ornament from the car and was about to smash it at the Jiang sisters!
If they hadn't acted so realistically, she would never have been fooled!
Fu Chan's movements were stopped by a bony hand.
She looked up and said, "Senior Lin? Don't stop me. I'm going to beat these two lying women to death!"
Lin Zhijie shook his head and said, "Let them go. They are poor people who were robbed. Their children still need someone to take care of them."
Fu Chan immediately said, "I can take care of the child, there's no need for them both!"
Lin Zhijie sighed. For the first time, he realized that Fu Chan wasn't very smart. "They're just trying to survive. If they tell the truth, the traffickers will rob them openly."
Those human traffickers have knives in their hands, and if they really start fighting, none of Xie Kai and his friends will be able to escape.
But after all, he is a human trafficker with little education. He is stupid and arrogant enough that he loses his mind when he sees a little profit.
Lin Zhijie was not surprised at all that Jiang Huai was ruthless.
But the girl in his car actually managed to take care of two of them, which really impressed him.
"Anyway, thank you for sharing the supplies with the children. They are starving. It is thanks to your generosity that we are able to help them."
Lin Zhijie handed the bags of instant food to Fu Chan: "I asked the children to leave some for you, enough for one day's food. I will find a way to return it to you before tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the black SUV on the side of the road.
The car window rolled down, revealing a bright and pretty face with tears hanging on her curled eyelashes, and she was sniffing gently.
"Qiao Chu?"
Lin Zhijie was very surprised. She never thought that she would be the one who hit someone with the car.
This girl gave him the impression of being very kind. Lin Zhijie still remembers the two bottles of pepper spray she gave him, and his heart softened.
I didn't expect that such a delicate and weak girl would have the courage to rush forward against the bad guys.
Qiao Chu wiped her eyes, a shimmering red appeared at the corners of her eyes, and she cried and laughed, "Senior Lin, you're finally back!"
Lin Zhijie thought of something, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. "I'm sorry. I said I'd give you more supplies if I found any. Now I'm empty-handed, and I'm still asking you to deal with the criminals."
Qiao Chu picked up a few cans and gave them to him. "It's okay, senior, this is for you."
The girl had black hair, fair skin, and a sweet smile. She was incredibly beautiful in the desolate apocalypse. Her lively, dewy fox eyes were clear and bright, and she looked into Lin Zhijie's heart at a glance.
Layer upon layer of ripples rose up, hit the edge and bounced back until the whole surface of the lake was covered with ripples.
"Thank you, I don't..."
A strong and thin arm came from behind, snatched the bag of cans, and almost threw it into Lin Zhijie's arms.
Jiang Huai was holding a knife and a stick looted from the human traffickers, his face reflecting a cold light.
"Take your things and get out. She's mine."
Lin Zhijie was baffled. "Qiao Chu is her own, what's yours or mine? Jiang Huai, be normal."
Jiang Huai turned the blade and pressed it against Lin Zhijie's neck, "Am I not normal enough? This is my car, and the people inside are mine. You are not welcome to chat with me."
He hated people like Lin Zhijie who were upright and honest. It seemed that as soon as Lin Zhijie appeared, he would be compared to a rat in the gutter.
In the past, Jianghuai didn’t care about other people’s opinions.
But Qiao Chu was the rose he had carefully watered. He didn't want Lin Zhijie to get involved, and he was also worried that Qiao Chu would be attracted by him.
He opened the car door and got in without saying another word. The car brushed past Lin Zhijie's clothes and drove away.
In the car on the side of the road, Xie Kai and the other two started to eat breakfast.
The difference is that now they have very few options and the portions are pitifully small.
Zhang Xiaolu was so shocked by the bloody scene that she couldn't eat.
Fu Chan chewed the compressed biscuits in big mouthfuls, and the crunching sound was full of resentment.
She could have had a bowl of delicious instant noodles, a boiled egg and a sausage.
They stuffed the car full of food, and all of it went into the children's stomachs. Fu Chan gave it away voluntarily, so she couldn't say anything.
Xie Kai was very dissatisfied with Fu Chan. Xiaolu was his girlfriend, but Fu Chan was not. Of course, he blamed Fu Chan first.
He said bluntly: "Fu Chan, aren't you going to take care of the children? Get off the car and go with Senior Lin."
