Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space - Chapter 546

Chapter 546: A Reminder

After their persuasion, the pregnant woman finally made up her mind and said, “Comrade, I don’t want the milk powder anymore. I want to exchange three level-one crystal cores for supplies.”

Shen Jinzhe nodded and let her pick the supplies. After he wrote down the order, he handed her a piece of paper and said, “Go to the next table to pay.”

“Thank you, Comrade.”

Except for the pregnant woman, no one inquired about milk powder anymore. Meanwhile, Jiao Lizhi, Xiao Qi, and Feng Yun continued to take out lots of supplies from their spaces, making more room for later.

When they were done, it was three hours later. Seeing that it was already afternoon, Jin Xuyan said, “Pack up. We will leave in fifteen minutes.”

“Understood,” the members replied and went to get ready.

Jiao Lizhi stored the tables and equipment in her space before she went to find the pregnant woman. Unlike before, when the survivors saw her, they no longer looked at her with wariness. Some of them even greeted her warmly.

Jiao Lizhi only nodded in reply to their greetings and walked to the corner where the pregnant woman stayed with her daughter.

Seeing her coming, the woman stood up and asked, “Comrade, do you need anything?”

Jiao Lizhi glanced at the malnourished girl and squatted down. The pregnant woman had used clothes racks and carpets as partitions to create a separate place for her and her daughter.

With the partition blocking other people’s prying eyes, Jiao Lizhi took out a box of milk powder, a bag of caramel candies, ten steamed buns, some medicines, and two bottles of warm milk from her space.

One box of milk powder contained a total of twelve cans of five hundred grams of milk powder. She also took out five bottles of pond water and a blade.

She looked at the woman and said, “Keep these well. You have to finish the fresh milk as soon as possible or it will spoil. As for this water, drink it daily. It can improve health.”

When she was done, Jiao Lizhi stood up and added, “After you give birth, it’s better for you and your children to go to the Lin’an City Base.”

Before the woman could say a word, she had already left in large strides. The survivors were curious about what she had said to the pregnant woman, but everyone was used to not caring about others. So after a while, no one paid attention to her anymore.

The little girl held on to a bottle of warm milk and asked hoarsely, “Mother, can I drink this?”

When she heard this, the woman’s eyes turned red and she nodded. “Yes, baby. This is all for you.”

The little girl smiled and opened the bottle. After she took several gulps, she handed the bottle to her mother and said, “Mother, you drink it too.”

The woman rubbed her daughter’s dirty hair and replied, “Mother has another bottle. You drink it.”

Seeing that there was indeed one more bottle of warm milk, the little girl didn’t refuse and finished the milk slowly. Since she was pregnant, the woman drank the milk as well.

Maybe because they were hungry, they felt that the milk was so delicious. After drinking it, their bodies were not as weak as before. The two of them finally felt half full after they finished a bottle of milk.

The woman covered the items given by Jiao Lizhi with blankets and said, “Baby, you must not tell anyone about what Sister gave us, okay?”

The little girl nodded and replied, “Mother, I will not tell anyone.”

“Good,” the woman smiled and gave her daughter a steamed bun before she hid the rest for later.

At the same time, the Phantom Team had already left the department store in their armored cars. Due to the large number of zombies in Zhuji City, they decided to drive slowly and clear the zombies.

Meanwhile, in the Jiangning City Base, Pei Xun had just finished reading a report sent by his spy. He threw the folder at the young man standing across from his desk and shouted, “Is this how you do things?! Look at this mess!”

Yuan Ruiyue didn’t dodge and the edge of the folder struck his forehead. Blood seeped from the wound and stained his expressionless face. He bent down to pick up the report and opened it.

After he read it, a smile flashed across his eyes for a moment before it returned to normal. When he looked at Pei Xun, he was as calm as usual and said, “Commander, I will go to the Lin’an City Base and take care of this matter personally.”

Pei Xun rubbed his throbbing forehead, and said with annoyance clear in his voice, “This time, make sure to bring Subject eighty-eight back. Also, take care of that girl. I don’t want Yijun to have too much contact with her.”

“Understood,” Yuan Ruiyue nodded and left the office.

After he was alone, a man wearing a mask walked out of the lounge and said, “Commander Pei, it has been almost four months since we lost track of Subject eighty-eight yet you still haven’t found him. It seems the Facility must reconsider promoting you to Vice Elder.”

At this, Pei Xun’s face darkened. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Eleventh Elder, when did you arrive?”

The Eleventh Elder walked to the couch and sat down. Crossing his long legs, he said casually, “Commander Pei, I come to remind you that you only have five days left. If you can’t deliver Subject eighty-eight to the Facility, then we can only use your son as the replacement.”

Pei Xun’s eyes turned cold the moment he heard this. Clenching his fists, he said, “If you dare to touch my son, I will make sure to kill you even if I have to use all of the Pei family’s power.”

As if hearing a joke, the Eleventh Elder burst out laughing. It took him a while to calm down before he said, “Then you better find Subject eighty-eight as soon as possible. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not warning you.”

When he finished speaking, the masked man suddenly disappeared, leaving only the echo of his voice.

Closing his eyes, Pei Xun took a deep breath. When he opened them again, his fury and killing intent had calmed. He picked up his satellite phone and made a call.
