Chapter 7 Retribution Has Arrived
With Han Yu's permission, Jian Chun sat at the dining table, cutting the steak on her plate, her cheeks still flushed.
The scene in the kitchen half an hour ago was so exciting that the steak was overcooked.
This is not her usual level.
"I must do my best next time and show my master my cooking skills!" Jian Chun secretly resolved.
"What are you thinking about? Cheers!" Han Yuyao raised her glass in a gesture of greeting.
The dining table was so large that the two people's wine glasses couldn't touch.
Jian Chun was very perceptive and quickly raised her wine glass, and the two clinked glasses in the air.
Han Yu seized the moment and pressed the shutter button on his phone.
I opened the group chat, and with a "siu" sound, the photo was sent.
Mr. Han, General Manager of AAA-Jiangwan Villa: [Oh dear, the steak for dinner was overcooked; I don't really want to eat it.]
Then he sent another message, specifically tagging Jiang Ling.
@AAA-Jiangwan Villa General Manager Han: [@Jinn (Survival Version), Jian Chun is with me. She made today's steak. Do you want some?]
The moment the message was sent, the previously quiet group chat exploded.
Jinn (Survival Version): [Chun Chun, you've been kidnapped! Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we're coming to rescue you!]
Bubble Dragon: [@Jinn (Survival Version), I see that they're living a pretty good life, unlike what you're saying about being kidnapped?]
Bubble Bobble: [Are you jealous of others?]
Jinn (Survival Version): [Don't talk nonsense. Jian Chun was kidnapped by this loser. I'm her dorm leader, would I lie?]
……
Han Yu didn't bother to read these messages; his purpose in posting the photos was simple.
I simply can't stand those self-righteous holier-than-thou types. I have plenty of food, why should I share it with you? Because you're big-headed? Because you're shameless?
Just as Han Yu was about to put down his phone and continue enjoying his dinner, a large message caught his attention.
It was posted by the young woman next door.
Momo: [@Everyone, family members, hello everyone, I am a resident of No. 9, Area A. You may all know me. My husband is the secretary-general of Jiangbei Industrial Bank, and I am his capable assistant.]
Momo: [Supplies are scarce right now. I just saw some photos someone posted, and it really bothered me. Not out of jealousy, but out of heartache. We still have quite a few people alive—the elderly, children, pregnant women—who are in poor health and need nutrition and food. But facing the current situation, sigh. Therefore, I believe that we, as a highly educated and cultured group, should understand the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, and we should also understand the importance of unity!]
Momo: [I'm not blaming anyone. As someone who's been through this, I feel someone should stand up and say something fair.]
Momo: [I propose we establish a "Survival Committee" for our villa area. We'll collect all the survivors' supplies, register them, and distribute them according to need. Each household should report their inventory first, and then distribution will be based on population and actual needs. This way, no one will starve, and no one will waste supplies.]
Momo: [The committee members will be elected by vote, ensuring fairness and impartiality. I've volunteered to be the temporary convener, not because I want to be an official, but because I simply can't bear to see everyone go hungry!]
Momo: [@AAA-Jiangwan Villas Mr. Han, you are also a high-quality resident of Area A. I hope you can take the lead and report your inventory. Don't worry, the committee won't let you suffer. Let's get through this together; that's the right way.]
Momo: [Family members, what do you think? Type '1' if you agree, let's get started!]
A series of messages were sent out with a clear purpose: to seize Han Yu's supplies.
Han Yu was puzzled. How could this person be so hypocritical?
Why didn't I notice this when I unclogged her drain before? If I had noticed then, I wouldn't have unclogged it for her.
Before Han Yu could react, a series of "1"s began to flood the screen.
Holy Light Shines Everywhere: [1! Support Momo! This is the wise thing to do!]
Forest Stream: [Waaaaah, finally someone's spoken up!]
Jinn (Survival Version): [11111! Support Committee! Han Yu must hand over the supplies and]
……
Momo: [Since everyone supports this, our committee is officially established from this moment on! Let's all thank President Han for the material support!]
Han Yu looked at the screen and slowly finished the last bite of steak in his mouth.
I put down my fork and picked up my phone.
He's not going to indulge these hypocrites.
A committee? It's nothing more than a pretext to embezzle their own resources.
They say it's to help everyone get through this difficult time, but what's the reality?
It's probably just that they've filled the big stomachs of the leaders.
AAA-Jiangwan Villas General Manager Han: [Committee? Unified allocation? Who do you think you are?]
AAA-Jiangwan Villa General Manager Han: [Isn't it possible that someone is out of supplies and wants to take this opportunity to embezzle everyone's resources? Hehe.]
Momo: [@AAA-Jiangwan Villas Mr. Han, please don't get agitated. This is for everyone's benefit. Everyone needs you, and you need everyone. We established this committee to better help everyone; it's entirely for everyone's service, and we have absolutely no other intentions!]
Holy Light Shines Everywhere: [Momo is right, @AAA-Jiangwan Villa President Han, it's better to believe in karma than not. You've helped everyone, so Buddha will surely watch over you!]
It was that same excuse again, and Han Yu inexplicably became furious.
AAA-Jiangwan Villas General Manager Han: [Fine, if you want to set it up, go ahead and do it yourselves. Don't count me in.]
Momo: [Can you really bear to watch the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled suffer from hunger? If a pregnant woman has an accident because of your refusal, that's two lives! If it's twins, that's three lives! If the twins are girls, that's countless lives!]
Holy light shines everywhere: [You've committed such a heinous crime, you'll face retribution!]
People can laugh when they're speechless, and that's exactly what happened to Han Yu at that moment.
He was so speechless upon seeing such a morally manipulative statement that he burst out laughing.
"Retribution? Ha, then let retribution come sooner rather than later!" Han Yu let out a long sigh and stretched.
He was quite curious to see how this survival committee would turn out...
Because of the blood moon, the whole world was shrouded in a dark red light.
There is no sun, no distinction between day and night; the only way to tell the time is by the ticking of a mobile phone and a watch.
Han Yu opened his phone, and the large "24:00" was displayed in the center of the screen.
The eighth day of the apocalypse was also the day the system predicted the arrival of a zombie horde.
The system only gave a general hint that a zombie horde would appear, but it didn't specify when it would appear.
Although the villa's defenses have been installed, and they are all automated weapons.
Han Yu still dared not let his guard down. After all, one only has one life, and once it's gone, it's truly gone. No one would dare to joke about it.
"Master~ Aren't you tired?" Jian Chun rubbed her eyes, still sleepy. She had been pulled up by Han Yuqiang.
"Wake up! Something big is happening today!" Han Yu didn't have time to waste with her. "Go to the small bedroom on the east side, the one where the shotgun is installed. Stand guard by the window. Call me if anything happens!"
After giving the order, before Jian Chun could react, Han Yu strode up to the top floor.
The area has good visibility and is equipped with automatic crossbows, allowing for immediate response.
The two had barely taken their positions when a roar came from afar, "Ooh-woo~"
A zombie horde has arrived.
……
Holy light shines everywhere: [Amitabha, Amitabha, Buddha has manifested! Retribution has come! There are so many zombies outside...]
