Chapter 279: What Can You Do?
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
Li Jun felt embarra.s.sed with Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s response. Did he really forget about him? Or was he pretending?
Not long after, Li Jun understood what the problem was. Although Jiang Lius.h.i.+ hadn"t changed much, he, on the other hand, had changed a lot.
After doomsday, Li Jun had suffered lots of mishaps. He was like a mouse hiding in the garbage heap, eating smelly and rotten food to survive. On his face, there was a nasty scar, along with smaller cuts. One of his eyes was almost blind, and his body was full of filth. It wasn"t surprising that Jiang Lius.h.i.+ couldn"t recognize him.
"Doomsday treated you well," Li Jun said with a complicated voice.
At that moment, Jiang Zhuying asked, "My dear brother, did you recognize him?"
[What? Brother? This beautiful young lady is Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s sister?] Li Jun was shocked by the sudden revelation.
Li Jun immediately tried to gauge the team"s power. And then, his gaze fell upon the minibus" interior through the opened windows. It was indeed a motorhome! Moreover, there was food and drinks on the table inside.
What dumbfounded him further was that there were three more beautiful young maidens. One of them...was Li Yuxin? Li Jun was pretty sure that Li Yuxin wouldn"t remember him. When they were still in school, they had never talked to each other. Unexpectedly, she was in Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s minibus.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was living the dream! He owned a luxurious minibus with superior defenses, and beautiful girls surrounded him.
Li Jun couldn"t believe in his eyes! He knew that some powerful people, like Boss Sun, had many girls warming their beds after doomsday. For them, the virus" outbreak was a blessing in disguise.
However, in Li Jun"s eyes, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ should be an ordinary survivor…
"Are you Li Jun?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ asked.
Li Jun nodded at once. "Yes, I am." Although he was jealous of Jiang Lius.h.i.+, he had to be respectful toward him.
He knew that after the doomsday, many people were different from the past. After all, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was too powerful.
"Oh…"Jiang Lius.h.i.+ answered calmly.
Before doomsday, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had asked Li Jun to return the money he owed him, but the latter had refused. Although Jiang Lius.h.i.+ no longer cared for a matter of the past, he wasn"t excited either about such behavior.
"Brother Jiang, I"m truly sorry! I was in the wrong in the past! Give me a chance to compensate you," Li Jun said.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ glanced at him and asked, "Compensation? It"s of no use to me now. What can you do?"
"Didn"t you want to go to Ye County? I am very familiar with the local emperor, so I could introduce you to him. You should know that ordinary survivors aren"t allowed to enter the city…" Li Jun explained.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ kept silent, but he revealed a slight smile.
At that time, Jiang Zhuying asked, "Is the local emperor called Sun?" Li Jun was shocked by that question.
And then, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ added, "He is dead."
"Dead?" How could it be true!? Li Jun was doubtful at first, but he felt that what Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said may be true.
"To tell you the truth, I wasn"t very familiar with him…" Li Jun explained again.
Looking at those girls inside the minibus, Li Jun continued, "Brother Jiang, my shooting skills are excellent. I think I"d be of use to you in the future." In his mind, other than Jiang Zhuying, the other girls should be ordinary. As a result, he emphasized on his skills, to spark Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s interest.
Just as an old Chinese saying goes, "A hungry camel is bigger than a horse."
At that moment, the other survivors from Li Jun"s team also approached.
"You can just let us follow you. We won"t disturb Brother Jiang"s everyday life in any way," Li Jun said.
"Marksmans.h.i.+p?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ shook his head.
Suddenly, Ying opened the window. She stretched out her hand, holding a Type 81 gun, and aimed at a street sign in the distance.
"Bang!"
The street sign was destroyed. Then, another gunshot followed, and a zombie landed on the ground.
Ying"s shooting skills shocked everyone. Li Jun didn"t know what to say anymore.
"We"re all paranormals," Ran Xiyu"s voice sounded in Li Jun"s mind…
Li Jun was astounded! Ran Xiyu was a paranormal with psychic abilities!
[This… this team- what- What are they!?]
"It"d be better for you not to go to Ye County," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said.
Li Jun felt a chill running through his spine, hearing Liang Lius.h.i.+"s emotionless voice. It seemed he had lost an excellent opportunity.
Ye County wasn"t very far from their current location…
Zhu Changqing, with a small patrol team, was on the city wall, awaiting for Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s return.
In the beginning, Zhu Changqing was exhilarated after they got the news. However, he was also worried that the military would arrest Jiang Lius.h.i.+. Some soldiers with the same thought had concluded, "Jiang Lius.h.i.+ is fraught with grim possibilities."
Suddenly, Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s minibus appeared! All pessimistic thoughts disappeared at once!
Zhu Changqing shouted happily, "Open the gate!"
Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s great actions and return inspired every soldier!
"Captain Jiang, you"re finally back!" Zhu Changqing felt relieved. Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s charisma gave him a special feeling. Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was a good example to them.
"Everyone, listen! Get ready! A small zombie wave is approaching Ye County!" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ ordered.
It would be a piece of cake defending against those zombies.
