The End of the World: I am a rent collector in a shelter

Chapter 37 Breakthrough Level
Qi Hao couldn't help but blush: "I know this razor. It's the Hermes of the razor world! Wanwan, thank you!"

"You're welcome. I took this from Macro without paying for it." Ji Wanwan picked up a piece of meat and said, "When you have time, you can shave your hair. You are tall and good-looking, so you might look better with a buzz cut."

Qi Hao felt like he was about to smoke.

Ji Xing on the side looked at his sister with a teasing look on his face.

It has to be the elder sister, with Xu Siming on the left hand and Qi Hao on the right hand, she plays much wilder than him~~

Feeling her brother's gaze, Ji Wanwan looked over and couldn't help but feel a chill.

She frowned in disgust: "What are you thinking about? Why do you look so disgusting?"

Ji Xing: "..."

Being suddenly scolded by his sister, Ji Xing was upset: "Hey, Brother Haozi has a razor, why don't I have one?"

Ji Wanwan: “…”

In fact, she still had a lot of money in her space, but she was so busy during this period that she forgot to give it to her father and brother. But now seeing her brother's shameless look, Ji Wanwan suddenly didn't want to give it to him.

She rolled her eyes at Ji Xing and said, "Don't you have a gold-related ability? Just turn yourself into a blade and shave!"

Ji Xing: "..."

Xia Li, who was eating, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

When these brother and sister stop quarreling, it will be like the sun rising from the west!
As he was speaking, Xu Siming came back with a sad look on his face.

Seeing this, Ji Xing, who had been frustrated by his sister, immediately found a breakthrough: "Hey, the Dragon King is back. Judging from his expression, it seems that things are not going well."

Xu Siming, who had just entered the cafeteria: "..."

God damn Dragon King!
He will get angry with anyone who calls him Dragon King again!
He rolled his eyes at Ji Xing in anger: "You are such a talkative kid. You can't even shut your mouth when you're eating."

Ji Xing: "..."

Xia Li couldn't help but laugh again: "Hahaha, little brat~"

Hearing Xia Li's smile, Ji Wanwan and Qi Hao couldn't help laughing as well.

At the end of the hotpot, everyone was very happy.

But the foundation of this joy is built on the fact that Ji Xing is the only one who is hurt.

That night.

Ji Wanwan and Xu Siming sat on the roof of the shelter, quietly looking at the starry night sky.

Although he had taken revenge, Xu Siming was still unhappy.

If possible, he would rather his father be alive.

Ji Wanwan handed over a bottle of happy water: "Live well, for Teacher Xu and for yourself."

Looking at the girl's watery eyes, Xu Siming's hatred was relieved at this moment: "Yes..."

Life is full of fogs. Even though the morning sun has passed, it is not too late to set in the evening…

He raised his hand to take the happy water, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Wan, thank you..."

As the night deepens, the evening breeze blows away the sorrow of separation and takes away the haze in the heart. When he stands up again, the young man's sincere heart is like a burning flame, illuminating the way forward and giving him firm belief.

[Superpower upgrade, current superpower level is 10, comprehended the initial stage of the sound of the sea god]

[Voice of the Seagod: Using the gentle sound of water as a medium, it causes all living things to fall into coma or confusion, making them unable to move freely. The initial stage of the Voice of the Seagod does not distinguish between friend and foe.]

A mysterious and desolate voice sounded in his ears, and Xu Siming paused.

Ji Wanwan looked at him: "What's wrong?"

Xu Siming's cheeks flushed. He planned to give Ji Wanwan another surprise when he went out for training tomorrow, so he smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, go back and rest."

Ji Wanwan murmured: "Strange..."

After returning to Room 201 and just finishing her shower, Ji Wanwan heard a hurried knock on the door.

Who is it?

Why are you knocking so urgently late at night?
She raised her hand and wiped her hair with a towel, then went to the living room and opened the door.

Seeing Xia Li standing at the door with red eyes from crying, Ji Wanwan was slightly startled: "A Li?!"

"Wanwan! I was talking to my mom just now when I heard some noises of fighting. Now I can't get through to my mom on the phone at all!"

Ali's trembling crying voice fell on Ji Wanwan's heart, and she was a little dazed.

Xia Li is also from Liancheng. Her parents divorced when she was very young, and she was raised by her mother alone.

After becoming best friends with Xia Li, Ji Wanwan met Aunt Xia several times. Aunt Xia is a very kind middle-aged woman.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, everything was in chaos. Xia Li himself was not strong enough to move freely among the zombies, so he was powerless to cross most of Liancheng and bring his mother to the shelter.

Fortunately, Xia Li’s mother runs a convenience store.

On the first day after settling down, Xia Li was very happy when he learned that his mother was also safe.

She told her mother to lock the doors and windows and not go out, and to live on the supplies in the store first. She would go home and bring her mother to the shelter when she found a chance.

In order to be reunited with his mother as soon as possible, Xia Li worked very hard and diligently during training.

But who knew that something unexpected would happen to my mother tonight.

It was already night, but Xia Li couldn't wait even a moment longer.

She wanted to see her mother, now!
After hesitating for a long time, Xia Li came to Ji Wanwan.

She has always been a patient and strong-willed person, so she has never mentioned her mother's affairs in front of Wanwan.

She originally didn't want to trouble Wanwan this time, but she had no special powers, and once she left the shelter, she would have trouble protecting herself. If she didn't ask Wanwan for help, she was afraid she wouldn't even be able to return home alive.

Seeing her crying, Ji Wanwan felt heartbroken.

She quickly stepped forward and hugged Xia Li: "Don't be afraid, Auntie will be fine! Wait for me for a moment, I will call the team members to gather at the armory! Let's go find Auntie together!"

five minutes later.

Three men stood at the door of the armory, ready to go.

Ji Wanwan was surprised to see that Qi Hao had really shaved his head.

This fool actually took her words so seriously.

The anxious Xia Li saw them and couldn't help crying: "Thank you, thank you."

Qi Hao waved his hand, inadvertently revealing his Porsche keys: "Well, we're all classmates, why are you being so polite?"

Xu Siming empathized with Xia Li's feelings at the moment.

He knew that it would be futile to say anything at this moment, so he patted her shoulder and said, "As members of the second team, we should help each other."

Ji Xing changed his usual casual and ruffian attitude and became serious: "It's getting late, let's go, the sooner we go, the sooner we can come back."

Although "thank you" is the most useless word, Xia Li can only use "thank you" to express his gratitude at this moment.

She bowed deeply and said, "Thank you. No matter what the result is, I will never forget your help tonight."

Several people quickly selected their weapons, and Qi Hao drove the car that he was reluctant to drive during training.

Following Xia Li's guidance, the five of them traveled all the way to Yunshui Bay in the west of the city under the cover of night.

This is a renovated urban village with good ecological landscape and water-style architecture. It is very livable and suitable for tourism.

Yunshui Bay has an ancient charm under the night sky, but none of the five people are in the mood to appreciate it.

Before the end of the world, widespread acid rain hit the world, which led to a lower population density in places like Yunshui Bay that rely on tourism for development.

Thanks to this, Xia Li's mother was able to avoid the first round of crisis in the early stages of the zombie outbreak.

But at this moment, the convenience store where Xia Li's mother was hiding had been broken into.

Looking at the broken glass windows all over the floor and the crumbling broken door, Ji Wanwan felt an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Mom?" Xia Li walked forward with red eyes, pushed open the already shaky door, and shouted into the house.

"Boom!"

The broken door collapsed completely after being pushed like this, and hit the ground with a dull thud.

A roar that was not human voice came from deep inside the house.

Xia Li was shaking like a sieve, not daring to go any further: "Mom?"

The roaring in the house became clearer.

At this moment, everyone already had the answer in their hearts, but no one was willing to admit it.

Ji Xing glanced at Xia Li, feeling helpless and a little worried.

Qi Hao moved his lips as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.

In the silent night, the five people stood at the door of Xia Li's house like statues, and no one dared to make a sound...
