Chapter 71: Going Out

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Xingchen’s family was in the supermarket business, so he naturally had dealings with his peers and knew where their warehouses were.

The people in the group seemed to have met their savior.

There was no other reason. Even if they took a lot of supplies from Zhang Yi’s house, it was probably enough for them to eat for a week or two.

Zhang Yi’s family had a lot of supplies, but it could not support so many people living in this entire community.

Many people died in the cold weather, but those who died were basically the elderly and children. The young people who survived had a big appetite.

Ye Xingchen’s words undoubtedly gave them hope.

No one knew how long the snow would last, nor did they know what the officials were planning. If they could only live for one more day, it was one more day. They would never complain about having too much food.

“Little Ye, you’re really… I’m crying.”

“We treated you like that before, but in the end, you still… We’re really not human.”

“Thank you for your hard work, Little Ye. It’s all up to you, Little Ye. In the future, I’ll definitely be at your beck and call!”

Many people choked on their sobs behind the screen. All of a sudden, everyone’s hatred for Ye Xingchen faded a lot.

“Well, since you have decided to work for me in the future, I will naturally be responsible for you. Don’t worry.”

When Ye Xingchen said this, everyone was even more grateful. In an instant, Ye Xingchen’s image in their hearts that was originally unpresentable became lofty. They all felt that what they had done before was not kind.

Words of apology and praise came one after another. They praised him as if he was no different from a god.

When Lin Sijia came out of the kitchen to look at her phone after washing the fruits, she even joked that Ye Xingchen’s actions were like that of a cult.

Indeed, at this time when everyone was in danger, they actually needed faith even more. Ye Xingchen stood up at this time to lead them to a better life, undoubtedly becoming their spiritual sustenance and the carrier of faith.

“But are you really going out? According to what you said before, don’t we still have a lot of supplies?”

Lin Sijia tugged at Ye Xingchen’s sleeve, her eyes filled with worry and guilt.

She was a little embarrassed because even though she had been cooking and doing housework since she moved in, she knew that these days, the little things she gave were not as important as the things Ye Xingchen provided for her.

Ye Xingchen knew what she was worried about. He raised his hand and gently rubbed Lin Sijia’s head. “Yeah, I need to go out, I’m going out to look for supplies for them. Be good, we don’t lack supplies, but I can’t let them have the good things I’ve saved, right?”

“Anyway, I don’t mind having too many things. Besides, I don’t want to be trapped in this small house for the rest of my life. 1 have to go out eventually.” “Just stay at home and guard it. Don’t open the door for anyone. Just cook at home and wait for me to come back.”

Ye Xingchen was indeed tired of staying at home. When everyone was worried about food and clothing, Ye Xingchen already felt that it was boring to stay at home reading, exercising, watching movies, and playing games every day.

He still had to go out for a walk.

Taking advantage of the current enthusiasm of the neighbors who were praising him in the group, Ye Xingchen also entered the space and began to choose clothes and tools.

Lin Sijia nodded obediently. She got up and went back to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

He picked two bulletproof vests as the base, a stab-proof suit on the outside, and old-fashioned breast-protector armors on his front and back. Ye Xingchen even took out a double-layered helmet. Worried, Ye Xingchen added a few more armors and hung them all over himself. Finally, he also stuck on some hand warmers and wrapped himself in two winter coats.

Standing at the door of the second floor, Ye Xingchen took a deep breath. This was… It was so f*cking hot!

Ye Xingchen took out an axe from the space and held it in his hand. He then put two pistols on his waist and scanned the surveillance footage in front and behind the house before opening the door and going out.

Ye Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief at the cold. He quickly closed the door and placed his snowboard on the ground, then took out two ski poles.

The snow under his feet was not as soft as he had imagined. The snow at the bottom had already frozen solid, and the loose snow on top had been compressed by his snowboard.

Ye Xingchen was wearing a pair of thermal night vision goggles as he carefully glided in the neighborhood. In less than ten minutes, he had already glided out of the neighborhood.

Ye Xingchen, who was dressed like a ball, stood at the entrance of the community and looked around. He saw that the huge community was lifeless. There was only a vast expanse of snow on the street outside. With a sweep of the thermal scanner, Ye Xingchen thought he was the only living thing on the street.

The snow had buried the city, and many of the shorter self-built houses had been buried until only the roof was left. The streets had completely changed their appearance, and he could only rely on the taller buildings to identify his location.

Ye Xingchen skied on the empty street.

After being trapped at home for more than 20 days, this was the first time he went out. The journey was smooth and unobstructed. As he listened to the wind whistling in his ears, Ye Xingchen was left with only one word: Awesome!

Everything outside was new, even though the streets were still the same and the buildings were still the same.

However, this was the first time Ye Xingchen had stepped on a place a few meters above the street. He couldn’t help but howl!

The sudden appearance of a figure on the usually empty street was very eye-catching.

The sky was not dark yet, and many people were hiding behind the windows, staring at the sudden figure on the street.

Ye Xingchen only felt a chill down his spine. He looked at the tall building at the side and saw that there were figures behind the densely packed windows. He felt creeped out.

“Looks like there will be more enemies in the future.”

Ye Xingchen turned left and right and arrived at a large supermarket.

The accumulated snow had already reached half the height of the second floor. If it wasn’t for the hole in the snow in front of his house that had been blown up by someone, he was afraid that he would have to go out from the third floor. Pulling open the window on the outer wall, Ye Xingchen stepped on the snow to make it solid and put the snowboard aside. Then, he took out a window hammer and smashed the window on the second floor of the supermarket.

Ye Xingchen climbed into the supermarket with his snowboard and poles. He first looked around with the thermal scanner to make sure that there were no living people in the supermarket. Then, he carefully put the things back into his space.

He couldn’t be bothered to pick and choose. He walked past a place and directly put the items together with the shelves into the space.

Ye Xingchen carefully put away the flashlight after he finished collecting the items on the second floor. He fumbled for the handrails and walked to the first floor.

There was no one on the second floor, but he couldn’t be sure that there was no one on the first floor. After all, after the heavy snow, there were still many people who came out to buy supplies. Ye Xingchen didn’t dare to go downstairs with a flashlight and become someone else’s live target.

Sure enough, as Ye Xingchen had expected, there was indeed someone on the first floor..
