My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

Wang Bin and his two teams of 14 people arrived in City A after a long and winding journey.

What a strange discovery! City A is teeming with zombies on the outskirts, yet we haven't encountered a single zombie or monster indoors!

Moreover, there are occasionally two or three living people walking around on the main road.

"Boss, what's going on? We've encountered plenty of living people, but they just don't know what's going on?!" Li Si hopped around in the cold, squinting at the pedestrians on the road.

Zhang Chengwei nodded in agreement, "The brothers did their best. Those people were completely dismissive of what we said, and they didn't care when we offered them water or food."

"Yeah, someone even said there's a supermarket nearby, but nobody wants to go to our area..."

"..."

His underlings squatted by the curb and started discussing it animatedly.

Wang Bin also found it strange. Ever since they suffered a loss half a month ago and lost a box of crystal cores, their life pressure suddenly increased.

The box of crystal cores was intended for exchanging supplies to get through the winter, but now, in this freezing weather, I still have to come out and talk nonsense.

We haven't even managed to secure one of the key targets yet!

"Look, there's a little girl building a snowman!" Li Si's eyes lit up as he pointed to the girl across the road.

Wang Bin and the others looked over, smiled broadly, and walked up with their hands in their pockets.

[Host, what are you piling up here?]

The system is examining Yamana's new work.

"This is the eldest of the Calabash Brothers—he's incredibly strong!"

Shannai was making a small gourd and placing it on the eldest child's head.

The system hadn't even read the story of the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather; it was just having fun with Shan Nai.

When Shannai has nothing to do, she likes to go out and build snowmen. It would be such a waste not to use such thick snow to build snowmen.

Following her previous 108 snowmen, she also created the "Three Snowmen of Peach Garden", "Snowmen on a Journey to the West", and "I've Seen This Snowman Before" series.

And you know what? So many cute and lifelike snowmen standing quietly on both sides of the road attracted many survivors from the surrounding area to come and admire them.

Not only did no one vandalize it, but some people even joined in the piling up!

It can be considered as finding joy in suffering.

"Art, this is art!"

Wang Bin clapped his hands loudly, quietly approached Shan Nai from behind, and put on a fawning and obsequious expression.

This girl's outfit is a bit odd!

However… dressed so thinly in this freezing weather, his face is all red from the cold, he probably doesn’t have much skill. Wang Bin felt that this goal was a sure thing.

His thought process was quite novel; Shan Nai's face was flushed because she was tired from building the snowman...

Shan Nai and the system turned around at the sound and saw a dozen people staring at them with predatory eyes.

"Little sister, are you all alone? Are you cold? Are you hungry? We have some..."

"Si'er, calm down! Don't get excited, you'll scare them." Wang Bin tugged at the quick-tongued Li Si, interrupting him.

"You stepped on my snowman." Shan Nai said in a cold tone, her gaze fixed on one of Li Si's feet.

He stomped on the foot of the eldest Calabash Brother!

"Tsk, I'm talking to you about serious matters. Look at you dressed so lightly, and you're still in the mood to build a snowman? I have some hot soup here, do you want some?"

Li Si glanced down at the snowman at his feet, unimpressed, thinking that Shan Nai was just a child and wanted to take out the hot soup with sleeping pills to tempt her to drink it!

His feet remained rooted to the spot.

"Seriously? Do you think I can't afford hot soup?"

Shan Nai calmly made a sarcastic remark, then raised her hand and a whirlwind blew Li Si up, making him spin and swirl wildly in the vortex.

The stainless steel soup cup also fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Wang Bin picked up the soup cup. "So you're a superhuman. Don't be angry, little sister. I'll make you a snowman to nourish yourself."

He quickly squatted down and repaired the part that Li Si had stepped on.

Wang Bin prefers people with superpowers!

A pretty girl like this would be highly sought after by buyers who would compete for a high price.

With her mood ruined, Shan Nai lost interest in building a snowman and picked up her shovel to leave, not wanting to pay any attention to Wang Bin.

"Hey, don't go, little sister. If you don't want the hot soup, how about some dried cured meat?" Wang Bin continued to entice her.

"Hot soup...dried cured meat...why does that sound so familiar?" Shan Nai thought back.

[Is this the story about human traffickers deceiving people that the customers in the supermarket were talking about earlier?]

The system flapped its wings and cried out in surprise.

Shan Nai also remembered; yes, it was the human trafficking gang's scam that Huang Zheng had mentioned.

Hey, what a coincidence!

It's truly a case of coincidences.

Shan Nai found it very amusing, stopped in her tracks, her smile deepening as she turned around to take a closer look at Wang Bin and the others.

I almost burst out laughing. "What kind of dried meat?"

"Made of animal meat, it smells amazing, with a five-spice flavor!" Wang Bin knew that no one could resist the temptation of jerky.

He sneakily pulled out a piece of dried meat tied with hemp rope and held it in front of Shan Nai.

Shan Nai glanced at the dried meat, her smile gradually fading. "An animal... a higher primate, right?"

Wang Bin and Zhang Chengwei looked at each other, their eyes dark and confused.

"Boss, what did she mean?" Zhang Chengwei asked impatiently. "What do you care what kind of animal it is? It's jerky! Do you want some jerky or not?"

Zhang Chengwei's tone became more forceful, and his brothers behind him were approaching Shannai.

"stop--"

"You beasts!"

Just as Shan Nai was about to deal with them, another loud roar came from behind.

Huang Zheng and several customers rushed over, brandishing knives and guns.

"Boss Cat, are you alright? These beasts are human traffickers!"

Huang Zheng rushed to Shan Nai, shielded her behind him, and said through gritted teeth.

As soon as he stepped out of the supermarket, he saw the cat owner chatting with a group of people next to a snowman by the roadside.

As he got closer, he realized that the group of people looked somewhat familiar…

Isn't that the same human trafficker who lured him in the first place?

As he roared, other customers on the street ran over to see what was going on.

“It’s nothing.” Shan Nai waved her hand. “I can tell. The hot soup and dried meat he’s holding look very similar to what you described.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Bin licked his back teeth, his anger flaring up. "So it was you who ruined my plans! I should have skinned you alive back then!"

"Boss, it was him who stole our box of crystal cores!" Zhang Chengwei would never forget this man.

He's the one who sent his men to seduce Xiaomei, steal the crystal core, and then ran away! This caused Xiaomei to be punished...

"I'll settle both old and new scores, and I'm going to take your flesh!" Wang Bin said sternly, pulling out his pistol. "And this little girl, you're not getting away either."

Huang Zheng laughed heartily, looking at the group of human traffickers as if they were idiots.

"She's the cat owner of Lucky Supermarket! You guys really don't know your place." As he spoke, he took out a shotgun from his back and aimed it at the other party.

“A bunch of heartless bastards, I can’t stand killing and eating people. Brother, I’ll get involved! Let’s go together and rid the people of this scourge.”

"That's right, die!"

The others behind them were also filled with righteous indignation and drew their weapons, not wanting to let these human traffickers go.

'Bang…'

'Boom, crack!'

Gunshots and supernatural abilities flew around.

Shan Nai took a few steps back. "System, I didn't even need to lift a finger. Customer Huang is pretty fierce!"

[Yeah, he has a strength-based ability. Didn't he say he hadn't eaten for several days and was starving when he was tricked? He's definitely going to get revenge this time.]

'thump. ’

As soon as the system finished speaking, Wang Bin was blasted by the supernatural power to the foot of Shan Nai.

The bullets came after him, and Wang Bin hurriedly used his defensive abilities to block them.

"Damn it, you want to kill me? No way!" Wang Bin wiped the blood from his nose, looked up and saw Shan Nai standing to the side with a look of amusement on her face, and his anger flared up.
