Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

There were only 5 Tibetan knives in total, one for each person, which was just enough for the group. Zhou Yang didn't go over, since he already had one himself.

Looking down and stroking the listless pea that was leaning its head against him, Zhou Yang realized it was probably hungry again.

Just as I was considering whether to give Pea a treat, I caught a glimpse of Shen Zechuan walking over with a Tibetan knife.

Just as Zhou Yang looked up, he heard Shen Zechuan hand him the last Tibetan knife.

"Here, take this knife. I noticed you've been using a short machete before, which isn't very safe. Give me that short knife, and you can use this long one."

“Um… I don’t really need this knife, you can keep it yourself. I actually have a long military knife in my backpack, but I haven’t taken it out because I don’t have a short knife that I feel comfortable using.” Zhou Yang said, deliberately going to the sofa to get the large backpack, and then turning his back to the crowd to secretly take out the military knife with the dark green hilt that he had bought earlier from his spatial storage.

Shen Zechuan looked at the military knife Zhou Yang took out, examined it for a moment, and found that it was a rare and good knife, no worse than the Tibetan knife he had. Only then did he give up the idea of ​​exchanging the knife: "Alright, I'll keep this Tibetan knife for myself."

"Ok!"

After distributing the knives, the group quickly continued packing. Apart from large pieces of furniture like beds and wardrobes, which were of little value and too troublesome to carry, they took everything else they could, including blankets and bedding.

We'll probably lack everything in the future, so we can't afford to waste anything.

Zhou Yang stayed behind with Wandou to watch the house, while the others carried the large cardboard boxes that had been packed up downstairs.

While the others went downstairs, Zhou Yang quickly took out a bowl of spring water and a bowl of dog food from his spatial storage and fed them to Pea. He also opened a sandwich for it to eat to replenish its energy, as it would probably need to do a lot of work when they got back.

Pea finished a whole bowl of dog food and spring water in no time. That was just enough for it to have a taste, but it wasn't full at all.

However, Zhou Yang didn't give it any more. Anyone who owns a dog knows that dogs don't know when they're full. They'll eat as much as you give them, so you need to control their food intake.

"Sweetie, we can only sneak a few bites when we're out and about. What I just gave you was just a little something to tide you over and help you regain your strength. I'll cook you a big meal when we get home!"

"Woof!" Pea barked happily.

Zhou Yang stroked the pea's fuzz: "Shh! Let's keep our voices down!"

Pea stuck out her tongue obediently and didn't say anything more.

Shen Zechuan and his group made two trips back and forth, finally managing to load all the large items onto the truck. There were still some small, miscellaneous items left, which they could then unload together on the last trip.

"There should still be some rice left in the kitchen, and some vegetables and meat in the refrigerator. Let's pack those up and take them with us. Also, take the induction cooker, cookware, tableware, and seasonings with us," Shen Zechuan said, looking at the remaining items in the kitchen.

Although Shen Zechuan can't cook himself, he hired a part-time housekeeper who comes to clean every day, and occasionally he'll have her prepare dinner if needed. Therefore, the kitchen utensils and tableware here are quite complete, and the housekeeper always keeps some vegetables and meat in the refrigerator, replacing them regularly.

In contrast, the villa was mostly unoccupied, so the kitchen was sparsely furnished with only a pot and two sets of utensils, and not even any condiments. They even ate the instant noodles they cooked last night and this morning using their own seasoning packets, just from the pot.

Yan Fei and the other three nodded in agreement.

After packing up quickly, the six of them carried the remaining items and prepared to leave. Even Pea had a large bundle of clothes hung around her neck.

After loading everything onto the truck, there was still a little space left in the cargo bed, so it seemed like we could collect some more supplies on the way back.

After closing the carriage door, the six people boarded the train.

The group's coming and going attracted the attention of many people in the community. Seeing that they were about to leave, someone finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Suddenly, a girl in a white dress with exquisite makeup, who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, ran out of the building. She immediately leaned against the passenger window where Zhou Yang was sitting, while Shen Zechuan was in the driver's seat.

"Mr. Shen, are you leaving? Could you take me with you?"

Zhou Yang knew immediately that the girl was after Shen Zechuan, so he turned to look at Shen Zechuan standing to the side.

However, Shen Zechuan didn't seem to recognize the girl. He frowned and asked, "I don't know you. Who are you?"

“My name is Lin Wanwan, and I live upstairs from you. My dad is Lin Hai from Linmu Real Estate! My dad told me you two are business partners!”

Shen Zechuan was stunned for a moment before he remembered Lin Hai.

But... a partner? A partner who competed with him for land, bribed the government himself, and then turned around and framed him for bribery?

Shen Zechuan glanced at Lin Wanwan with a strange expression before replying indifferently, "Oh, so you're President Lin's daughter. What can I do for you?"

"Could you take me with you? I'm all alone at home, and I have no food... so..."

Lin Wanwan clutched the hem of her skirt and said softly.

"Isn't your father home? Why don't you call him and ask him to come and take you away?"

"I've tried calling my dad, but I can't get through," Lin Wanwan said, her eyes welling up with tears, looking like she was about to cry. "Just take me with you, or help me find my dad, and I'll make him pay you a large sum of money..."

Looking down at his watch, Shen Zechuan realized it was getting late; the sun would be setting soon. In a hurry to leave, he didn't want to waste any more words with her and impatiently interrupted Lin Wanwan.

"I'm sorry, we're in a hurry! Besides, I'm not familiar with your father, I don't know where he is, and I can't help you find him. You should just stay home and wait for him, or wait for the official rescue team to arrive."

Lin Wanwan became furious when she saw that Shen Zechuan was unresponsive to her pleas.

"Aren't you business partners? How can you be so heartless! I just asked you to help me find my father, it's not like I'm not paying you!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zechuan scoffed, "First, I'm not short of money! Second, I've only met your father three times at most! Besides, your father used a lot of underhanded methods when he was fighting me for that piece of land at the foot of Baiji Mountain! You call that a business partner?"

"You're talking nonsense! My dad has always been kind and helpful in business! If you don't want to help me, just say so. Don't slander my dad!"

Lin Wanwan angrily slammed her fist on the windowpane, startling Zhou Yang who was caught off guard.

Seeing that he was frightened by this unfamiliar crazy woman, the protective pea immediately bared its teeth and took two steps forward, startling Lin Wanwan so much that she took several steps back.

"Ah! Get this dead dog away from me! This dog must be a monster to have grown this big! Why don't you kill it! Kill it now!"

Even the usually good-natured Zhou Yang was amused by this woman: "Are you crazy?! My pea is very well-behaved. You were the one who acted crazy and scared me first, so it came to protect its owner. If you're afraid of dogs, go home!"

"Ignore her, let's go!"

Shen Zechuan didn't even glance at Lin Wanwan, who was trembling with fear because of the peas. He gestured to the people in the other two cars and then led the way.

Pea trotted along beside Zhou Yang's car window, and the other two cars followed closely behind.

Lin Wanwan, forgotten by the others, stood there, staring venomously in the direction they had left. Her hands, hanging at her sides, were clenched tightly, her long, delicate nails digging deep into her flesh.

After a while, noticing many people staring at her, she quickly jogged back into the building.
