Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 4 Su Huan's Kindness Accumulates Over time
Su Huan patiently explained, "There's a cannery nearby, but it's uncertain how much food will be left. I certainly don't mind chatting with you a little longer, but some of you might miss your train tonight."

The discussion suddenly fell silent.

The crowd dispersed and began to walk outside.

The fact that there were over forty carriages but only about a thousand people speaks volumes about Su Huan's character.

If he can't afford the ticket, he'll really leave people outside the train.

Soon, almost all of the more than a thousand people had left, leaving only a few who were moving slowly.

A girl slowly walked up to Su Huan.

Su Huan narrowed his eyes, his tone amiable, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

The girl fidgeted with her fingertips and hesitated, "Could you..."

"No."

"gollum"

The girl's stomach made a rumbling sound.

Her eyes instantly reddened, tears welled up, and she pleaded, "I'm so hungry..."

Su Huan suddenly realized, "Oh, it was you."

Last time, a few people didn't collect enough supplies and barely managed to scrape together enough for a train ticket.

Without food, one will naturally go hungry.

Su Huan took a piece of bread out of his pocket and handed it to her.

The girl immediately wolfed it down, finishing it in just a few bites after opening the bag.

Su Huan also thoughtfully handed over a small 330ml bottle of drinking water.

After finishing her drink, the girl looked up and smiled sweetly, "Brother Su, you're such a nice person."

Wow, she's quite a pretty girl.

Su Huan casually wiped away the girl's tears and smiled happily.

"Remember to retrieve all six supplies."

After saying that, he ignored the girl's astonished expression and went back to his car to get his tools.

Liang Kuan then went to move the prepared metal sheets.

……

Su Huan returned to the carriage and saw a figure lurking suspiciously in front of his door from afar.

Looking at the familiar knitted sweater and her full figure, you don't even need to guess to know that it's Yu Jing's mother.

Su Huan activated his "skill" of walking silently.

Standing behind the woman, only about ten centimeters away from her body, I could faintly feel the heat emanating from her.

Taking advantage of his height, Su Huan leaned over the woman's shoulder and watched her twist her fingers like a little girl.

The voice said softly, "What are you doing here?"

The woman trembled with fright, her legs went weak, and she lunged toward the door of the private room. Fortunately, she was close enough to grab the door with both hands.

The terror came so suddenly that there wasn't even time to utter a sound.

Fearing she would fall too badly, Su Huan reached out and supported her waist.

The woman turned around and saw that it was Su Huan. Instead of feeling relieved, she became even more terrified.

Maintaining an awkward posture, he said in a trembling voice, "I wanted to see my daughter; she didn't go home all night..."

"Oh"

Su Huan felt his fingers sink into the soft crotch.

"Click!"

The door lock opened, and Yu Jing, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, opened the door.

The woman lost her balance and fell into Yu Jing's arms.

Yu Jing hugged her mother, her dark, spirited phoenix eyes sweeping over the two of them with a hint of confusion, "Are you here to check the results?"

Su Huan acted as if nothing had happened, "Go get some tools, you can come too." Yu Jing made way for her, and her mother also scurried to the other side like a startled rabbit.

At the same time, he avoided Su Huan's amused gaze.

All the messy parts in the room had disappeared, and all kinds of tools were neatly placed on the table.

The car leaned against the center of the room, the front wheels slightly to the left, the supercharger's air intakes baring their fangs in the shadows, the honeycomb pattern on the inner walls resembling insect compound eyes.

The air was still filled with the chilly smell of engine oil mixed with leather, like the exhaust fumes of some giant beast.

Yu Jing frowned and explained, "It's been restored, but the sound is off. There must be some minor problem with the engine, which needs to be checked one by one."

Su Huan didn't take it seriously.

It's just a few minor issues.

Is it even more problematic than a motorcycle modified by a motorcyclist using a chainsaw and fuel injection?
Even just using the handbrake could get you castrated and then roasted.

He can handle such a dangerous thing, let alone such a safe and harmless little thing.

He simply replied with a motorcycle enthusiast's catchphrase, "There are too many broken things in this world; as long as it can start, that's enough."

"Well, since you put it that way... let's do the repairs when we get back." Yu Jing paused for a moment, then said with a sense of relief.

Su Huan first pushed the big guy into the sightseeing carriage, where there were more empty seats.

Then, he took Yu Jing and the welding tools and walked towards the front of the car.

As I got off the train, I saw Liang Kuan struggling to move a huge steel plate.

The steel plate is a full 25mm thick, V-shaped, and can cover the entire front of the car. It was welded by Su Huan at a factory a few days ago.

"Are you planning to install...protection?" Yu Jing suddenly asked.

Su Huan, who was about to step forward, turned back to look at her. "Is there a problem?"

Yu Jing calmly said, "If we're facing zombies or obstacles on the tracks, the shovel-shaped locomotive might be more effective."

Su Huan's eyes lit up slightly. "The idea is very good. Do you know the specifics of how to implement it?"

Yu Jing walked to the front of the car, squatted down and looked at it. "It's very simple. Just weld the steel plate on at a 30° angle. It's just a bit troublesome."

“Then let’s do it this way,” Su Huan said firmly.

He depends on this train to survive, so the matter of his armed reformation cannot be taken lightly.

"Liang Kuan, lift it up, I'll weld it. Yu Jing, go to the back and adjust the position. Let's try to finish it by the morning."

After Su Huan finished speaking, he picked up a welding rod, and without even connecting it to electricity, directly applied it to the gap.

Yu Jing was stunned for a moment, and just as she was about to remind him, the sparks that flew out almost blinded her.

Looking at it again in disbelief, Su Huan clearly only had a pair of welding pliers in his hand, without even a power source, yet he was welding in mid-air!

This is simply beyond her comprehension!
"This is……"

"First, calibrate your position. If you perform well, I'll tell you how to become an evolved being," Su Huan said calmly, his back to her.

Yu Jing looked at the mysterious man, her eyes flashing with a subtle light.

“Lift it up a bit more; if the angle is too low, it won’t have the desired shoveling effect.”

"Hey!"

Liang Kuan exhaled and raised the heavy steel plate, his face turning red from the effort.

It took them an hour to finally finish welding the steel plates.

Looking at the front of the car with its rough welding marks, Su Huan nodded in satisfaction. It's the end of the world, who cares about looks? As long as it's powerful enough, that's all that matters!
"Next, we need to weld the explosion-proof mesh on the food truck and then today's task will be completed."

Liang Kuan dusted off his gloves, kicking up a cloud of dust, and pulled out a large pile of explosion-proof netting from carriage number 3, starting to cut it on the spot.

Since it's difficult to connect to electricity outside, it's convenient; Su Huan can simply hold the plug.

Then Yu Jing helped hold the explosion-proof netting while she used her other hand to weld.

At first it was a bit strange, but the three of them developed a tacit understanding and moved extremely fast.

Before 2 o'clock, the entire window of the dining car was welded with explosion-proof mesh.
