Many children, many blessings: Helping classmates' mothers survive the apocalypse

Moreover, the way they looked at Lin Feng showed no resistance whatsoever, but rather a strange sense of obedience.

Shen Man stared at them blankly, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

She finally understood what Lin Feng meant by saying, "The lives of those who come in belong to me."

Lin Feng ignored Shen Man's shock and went straight to the sofa to sit down.

"Aunt Su, could you clean up the foyer?"

He casually gave an order.

"it is good."

Su Qing immediately responded, grabbed a mop from the kitchen, and skillfully began cleaning up the bloodstains that Shen Man had brought in.

Bai Bing put down the soup spoon in her hand and went to the bottom of the TV cabinet to retrieve the first-aid kit.

She walked up to Shen Man and squatted down.

"Attorney Shen, please treat the wound first."

Bai Bing's voice was cool and clear, carrying the habitual demeanor of a teacher.

As she spoke, she used scissors to cut open the snagged and torn black stockings on Shen Man's legs, exposing her knees, which were rubbed raw and bloody by the floor tiles.

The moment the iodine swab was applied, Shen Man shuddered in pain, but gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound.

"Bear with it, there's no going back if you get infected now."

Bai Bing's technique was swift and efficient; she bandaged and applied medicine in one smooth motion.

At this moment, Su Qing came over carrying a bowl of steaming meat porridge and handed it to Shen Man:

"Be careful, it's hot. Eat something first, your lips are all purple from the cold."

Shen Man stiffly stretched out her hands and held the warm porcelain, the coldness at her fingertips gradually dispelled.

The heat wafted over, and the rich aroma of meat and rice filled my nostrils.

She hasn't had a hot meal in the past three days, and has been surviving on a few packets of biscuits and half a bottle of mineral water that she scavenged from the office building.

Today, she couldn't take it anymore and pulled the fire axe from the toolbox in the fire escape.

He slashed through two zombies and stumbled and crawled his way to the building.

She didn't shed a single tear during those three days.

But now, the moment the aroma of hot porridge wafted into her nostrils, Shen Man's eyes unexpectedly welled up with tears.

She lowered her head, picked up the spoon, scooped up a mouthful, and put it in her mouth.

The warm rice porridge slid down my throat, and a spasmodic pain shot through my stomach, followed by an indescribable feeling of satisfaction.

"Plop...plop..."

Large tears fell into the porridge bowl, creating small dents on the thick rice soup.

Shen Man swallowed hard, tears streaming down her face, as if she were savoring a priceless delicacy.

She kept her head down, her shoulders trembling, yet she held the bowl tightly in her hands.

He forced himself not to cry out loud, maintaining his last shred of dignity as a top lawyer.

This top-notch lawyer, who argues fiercely against numerous opponents in court and never backs down,

At this moment, she looked like a girl who had suffered all kinds of grievances, wolfing down her porridge while silently shedding tears.

Su Qing handed over a tissue, without saying anything comforting, but simply patted Shen Man's back gently.

She understands this feeling all too well.

Five minutes later, Shen Man licked the porridge in the bowl clean.

She took a deep breath and pulled out a tissue to wipe away the tears and blood from her face.

When she stood up again, her eyes had changed.

No longer the hysterical survivor in the corridor, nor the aloof lawyer at the negotiating table.

She straightened her tattered silk shirt, walked up to Lin Feng, put her legs together, and bowed deeply.

Ninety degrees, perfectly precise, and maintained for three seconds.

"Lin Feng, thank you for saving me."

Shen Man straightened up, meeting Lin Feng's gaze without flinching.

"From this day forward, my life, Shen Man's life, is yours. I will do whatever you ask me to do."

She stopped saying such foolish things as "equivalent exchange".

"The password for Walmart East China's reserve supplies warehouse is: MZ-SIGMA-9527-ALPHA. It is located at entrance number 3 of the underground air-raid shelter on Jianshe Road."

"Level 3 titanium alloy door, 12-digit mixed password, automatic fuse and lock after 3 incorrect attempts."

She paused, then quickly added:

"But you're right, with your strength, you could easily break it open. The password is just a stepping stone; that's not what I can truly give you."

Shen Man's mind raced at that moment, showcasing the terrifying logic and coordination skills of a top lawyer:

"I just surveyed the space and supplies here. Now that I've joined, I must prove my worth."

"Tell me about it," Lin Feng said, showing some interest.

Shen Man looked around.

Her gaze swept over the canned goods and compressed biscuits piled haphazardly on the kitchen counter, over the messy medical supplies on the coffee table, and over the several unopened cardboard boxes in the corner.

"First, material management. Currently, your materials are piled up in the living room and storage room. Although the quantity is large, they are not categorized, and the consumption rate is not recorded."

"I suggest immediately establishing both electronic and paper ledgers, strictly separating food, medicine, weapons, and daily necessities. Food should be consumed in order of its expiration date to avoid waste."

As she spoke, she walked to the window and gently tapped her fingertips on the cold bulletproof glass, producing a crisp and rhythmic sound.

"Second, security defense. Although bulletproof glass and steel doors are very sturdy, we cannot rely entirely on passive defense."

"I suggest implementing a three-shift night watch system to monitor the corridors and the street below around the clock."

Shen Man turned around, her gaze sweeping over everyone present. She clasped her hands naturally in front of her, her back ramrod straight, her posture composed and professional.

"Third, internal collaboration. Teacher Bai is suitable for coordinating internal affairs and medical care, Ms. Su can be in charge of logistics and cooking, and I will be responsible for inventory of supplies, intelligence analysis, and subsequent external route planning."

Throughout the entire process, Shen Man spoke very quickly and clearly.

In just a few words, he outlined a rigorous operating logic for this makeshift team of a tiny shelter.

Bai Bing, who was standing to the side, raised her eyebrows slightly.

She thought she had established herself as the head of internal affairs, but Shen Man, who had just entered the room, took over the whole plate as soon as she opened her mouth.

Lin Feng leaned back on the sofa, watching the woman in front of him quickly get into character, a satisfied smile curving his lips.

Smart people are good at communicating.

"Good, let's do it this way."

After gaining Lin Feng's approval, Shen Man's shoulders visibly relaxed.

At the same time, a series of rapid notification sounds suddenly exploded in Lin Feng's mind:

[Ding! Fluctuation in target Shen Man's approval rating detected!]

Current approval rating: 62% (gradually declining).

[Ding! The total number of family members (including dependents) has reached 4.]

[Current members: Su Qing (affiliated with: Su Xiaoxiao), Bai Bing, Shen Man.]

[Congratulations, host, on achieving the "Establishment of a New Clan" milestone! The system's power structure is fully activated, and generous rewards will be distributed in stages!]
