As they neared the slave town, Sun Yan and a middle-aged uncle in the team switched spots as drivers.

Uncle Luo had been a deputy manager of a small logistics company and had a pair of twin daughters with his wife. His greatest pleasure in life was planting flowers, and taking his wife and daughters out to travel. He’d died of throat cancer before disaster struck and had resurrected one day later.

When the apocalypse came, he drove away from the city with his wife, daughters, and two potted flowers.

His wife and daughters were still old humans, so Uncle Luobecame their biggest and last source of heat in the cold weather.

Before arriving at the town that Ding Qiuyun had founded, he’d killed three new humans who wanted to snatch away his wife, and killed six new humans who had been blocking the road in order to rob supplies from others.

By the time he arrived at the town, he’d already become a mature soldier in addition to being a qualified husband and father.

When they switched seats, Sun Yan rigorously followed their plan and changed their front and back license plates as well.

Their new license plates had been taken from a slave truck.

Around three days ago, a truck full of old human slaves had just happened to pass by the town, and it just so happened that Sun Yan had caught them.

They’d rescued a group of old human slaves, discovered the location of the slave town, and obtained a pass to the slave town.

The two new humans who were in charge of escorting the slaves had begged for mercy: They’d lost their slaves and were afraid of returning to the original town. They begged the old humans to leave them a chance to live.

At the time, Yan Lanlan had been in the midst of counting the newcomers. Their wailing messed up her count, making her incredibly frustrated. So, she’d threatened them, “Shut up. If you cry again, I’ll kill you both. We’re professionals who know how to send people to the west. If we say we’ll kill your whole family, then we’ll really kill your whole family.”

The two youths wanted to cry but had no tears. They shivered and quaked.

Sun Bin reminded kindly, “It’s ‘send Buddha to the West’.”

Then, he was the one being glared at by Yan Lanlan.

Sun Bin felt very sad.

He felt that if he continued to stay in this team full of illiterates, he would also fall to their level sooner or later.

When the youths and Uncle Luo made their way back to the town, they’d gone to ask Captain Ding about how to deal with this group of people.

Chi Xiaochi, who was at home recuperating from his injury, thought for a while. “Check over the slaves and see if they have global positioning devices. If they have any, take them down and put them back in their car. You and Old Sun can make a trip out; Old Sun will drive our car, and you can drive their car. Drive their car further out, then abandon their car around 200 kilometers away before taking Old Sun’s car back. As for the two slave escorts, search their bodies and confirm that they have no positioning devices on them, then blindfold them and bring them back to the town.”

Uncle Luo frowned slightly.

His wife and daughters were still in town. He didn’t want them to encounter any risks.

He asked, “Why bring them in? We can send them away with the car.”

Chi Xiaochi: “What if they run off and spread the word to the other new humans?”

Uncle Luo replied, “Then let’s just kill them. The matter will be over, and everything will be clean.”

Chi Xiaochi knew that Uncle Luo hated these kinds of new humans who cruelly oppressed their own kind. It was neither meaningful nor persuasive to use outdated chicken soup sayings like ‘do you want to hug your daughters with hands that have killed people’, but he also didn’t want to train Ding Qiuyun’s men to all regard human life as nothing.

People changed completely once they took other people’s lives too lightly.

So, Chi Xiaochi’s face was pale, his fingertips idly tapping gently against Boss’s body where it lay beside him. “Killing them would be boring. We can use their car and their passes to plunder the slave town. At the same time, we can let those people know who had helped us ‘launch an attack with inside knowledge’. By the time we return, will they have the courage to go back? The shed builders in the outskirts of our town are short on manpower, and two more youngsters means two more strong laborers. Since they’re willing to escort slaves, then I’ll let them taste what it’s like to be a slave. That case will also mean that they’re within our supervision. If they still don’t behave well, then I’ll deal with them personally then.”

As a captain, he had to think clearly and take responsibility. He couldn’t have illusions, but had to dare to make decisions and do things. When it came to this point, Ding Qiuyun was better at it than anyone else.

Uncle Luo had chosen to believe in this young man precisely because he was bold enough whenever he had already planned comprehensively enough..

His ambition wasn’t limited to making the small town into a safe place to live during the apocalypse.

Finally, they determined a plan to go and steal the slaves.

Uncle Luo drove to the slave town and was stopped at the entrance to the town.

He rolled down the window.

The other side yawned carelessly. “Pass.”

Uncle Luo handed over the pass with his left hand, then lit up a cigarette with a cigarette lighter with his right. He smoked slowly after it was lit, his attitude quite calm.

Chi Xiaochi, who was in the back compartment, turned his head. “Sun Bin.”

Without needing him to give further instructions, Sun Bin had already quietly hacked into their system with a handheld computer.

The AI wouldn’t provide the new humans with any overly sophisticated devices even though they were working together, so it wasn’t difficult for Sun Bin to enter the local authentication system and manipulate it.

Uncle Luo held out the pass and inserted it into the card reader to one side.

The card reader connected to the computer, but the relevant information wasn’t displayed on the screen. The new human responsible for checking the information clicked his mouse twice, cursing about the ‘broken computer’, and had no choice but to cross his arms over his chest helplessly and wait.

The vehicle information appeared first, followed by the owner information. Only the owner’s photo column remained blank and couldn’t be displayed.

Yan Lanlan couldn’t see anything and didn’t know what the situation was like outside. She could only urge Sun Bin again and again, “Is it done? Is it done?”

Sun Bin wailed and cried, “No, no. It’s over, it’s over.”

Everyone thought to themselves, okay. The situation was stable.

In the next second, the photo on the computer refreshed slowly. Uncle Luo’s face, which could still be considered quite handsome, appeared on the upper right corner of the screen.

Sun Bin had just breathed out a sigh of relief when he heard Uncle Luo jump down from the driver’s seat with his keys in his hand.

Sun Yan hurriedly lowered his voice and said, “Put it away quickly, they’re coming over to inspect the back.”

Sun Bin’s psychological tolerance wasn’t much better than that of a baby lamb. He panicked and nearly dropped the handheld computer.

In the next second, the back carriage of the truck was pulled open. Three new humans with loaded guns and two giant wolf dogs appeared, standing side by side. Sun Bin was frightened by the sudden appearance of light and drove into his big brother’s embrace. Sun Yan reacted quickly and pulled his brother into his arms, blocking the handheld computer from sight.

One of the men held up a flashlight. A strong beam of light swept in.

One glance revealed that they were basically all men, and they all had short, shaved hair, and ragged clothing. It was difficult to differentiate gender without a more careful look, as everyone’s wrists were tied together with heavy chains. There was a piece of linoleum cloth spread out at the bottom of the truck that carried the pungent smell of oil, so strong that it was hard to focus their eyes.

After the initial appraisal, they determined that the quality of these new humans wasn’t bad. Five or six of them were Chinese, and there were two youths whose appearance stood out from the rest with strong muscles and bones, who could be sold as hard laborers or bed companions.

The leader of the group was in a pretty good mood and spoke to the two dogs, “Go ahead. Except for the two men to the right, you can pick out one you like and eat them slowly.”

As soon as he let go, the two wolf dogs jumped into the car.

Anyone who had lived for over three months in the apocalypse would easily be able to identify which animals had mutated.

These mutated animals particularly enjoyed looking at humans with gazes like they were looking at pigs, and they had fake smiles full of ridicule on their faces. They also liked to pace slowly around in front of a crowd, spending a quarter of an hour to look them over, screening their prey and appreciating the fun expressions of the trembling humans as they made their selection.

It wasn’t only them. This was also one of the shows that the new humans from the slave town liked to watch the most.

But who could’ve thought that this show would end before it had even started?

As soon as the two wolf dogs got into the car, their noses quivered, and the hair at the back of their napes stood on end. Even their tails immediately tucked themselves between their legs, and they fled from the car without turning back, even ignoring the calls from their master.

Even the leader of the group was a little suspicious and surprised. He didn’t think that there would be anything in this ordinary truck that could scare the wolf dogs into fleeing in fright and only assumed that it was due to the overly strong scent of oil. He waved his hand carelessly and signaled for the two other new humans to go and bring the dogs back. He casually closed the door to the back of the truck and said to Uncle Luo, “Take them to the warehouse in the West. After unloading, you can pick up your money and go.”

Everyone in the car breathed a sigh of relief.

After the vehicle started up again, everyone consciously separated again. They each went to a hidden window and looked outside.

The slave town was shrouded in the evening fog, and the streets also appeared somber and depressing. There were only some new human workers with tired expressions on their faces installing audience stands.

Once nighttime arrived, this would become a place for new human revelry.

They could buy beautiful female slaves, and it wouldn’t matter even if they had sex on the street, let alone doing it in front of her husband; they could also tie their newly purchased slaves in groups behind a car, dragging them around the town like balloons as they showed off their new, rich spoils.

These things had been shared with them by the two new humans who’d been responsible for escorting the old human slaves.

They’d shared everything they knew in order to protect their lives, including the fact that there were only two entrances and exits for the town, and the specific location for the armory storehouse in the town. At least ten gunmen were stationed around each large slave exhibition area to maintain order, the smaller areas would have three or four gunmen, and so on.
