Zombie Apocalypse: Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person.

Chapter 113 Flower, Bird, Fish and Insect Market

When he was about to leave, the others wanted to help him, but Shenhe refused. It was more convenient for him to go out and find things on his own. He could fight if he could win, and run if he couldn't. It was more convenient for him to be free of any ties.

He didn't need to worry about them since they were all at home; the ammunition they had left was enough for them to fight a small war.

When he was leaving, Li Yuetong insisted that he take Shen Qiangwei with him, saying that the little one could heal his injuries and could also be hidden by Shenhe so as not to delay his progress.

Shenhe thought it made sense and took her along. Shen Qiangwei had always been in human form and was always munching on lollipops, so he had almost forgotten that she was a wood-type ability user.

Actually, Shenhe wasn't unprepared. Before setting off, he opened all the blind boxes he had on him, hoping to give himself more trump cards.

Unfortunately, he was having a run of bad luck today; almost everything he opened from dozens of blind boxes was food.

But despite being considered unlucky, he opened a rainbow blind box, which was a superpower blind box!

While some might call him incredibly lucky, this ability is something he finds difficult to admit and is hesitant to use casually.

Just thinking about it makes me want to cry!

When I arrived at the property management office, it was a scene of bustling activity. A group of people in the lobby were sorting and categorizing supermarket items and then moving them to a certain room.

"Mr. Shen! Hello!"

"Mr. Shen! You've arrived!"

"Mr. Shen! The chairman's office is on the third floor!"

"Um."

As he walked in, many people greeted him, because the events of the day were so shocking that they were truly afraid to speak ill of Shenhe.

Shenhe didn't even need to ask where Sun Qi's office was; someone would proactively give him directions.

To be honest, it feels pretty good to be genuinely feared and yet deliberately fawned over!

Upon arriving at Sun Qi's office, Shen He politely knocked on the door and then went straight inside.

Upon entering, there were two people in the office.

A woman leaned forward slightly, her arm resting on the desk, as she diligently wrote something down with a pen.

Sun Qi stood in front of the filing cabinet behind the woman, holding an A4 sheet of paper in one hand and licking his lips with the other, carefully counting something.

When the door was pushed open and someone entered, the woman calmly glanced at him, then placed her arms in front of the desk, as if afraid of revealing some important data.

Sun Qi was startled by Shen He's sudden entrance, causing his hand to tremble and the A4 paper in his hand to crumple.

Shenhe glanced at them without saying a word, then walked over to the sofa and sat down. He said casually, "You guys go ahead with your business. I'll wait here for a bit."

It was clear that the two were dealing with private accounts and material details, and it was inconvenient for Shenhe, an outsider, to be present.

Sun Qi leaned close to the woman's ear and whispered a few words of advice. The woman calmly got up, straightened her slightly wrinkled skirt, picked up the documents, and walked away quickly in her high heels, keeping her head down the whole time as she passed by Shenhe.

But Shenhe also saw her face; she was quite pretty, with fair skin, and a beautiful young woman.

His eyes were lifeless, and his expression was calm.

After the woman left, Sun Qi approached the sofa with a smile on his face. "Mr. Shen, you've arrived quite early. We won't waste any more time. Now is the perfect time to go."

There wasn't a trace of anger on his face about being disturbed at work.

"Let's go then. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll come back. Chairman Sun can finish the work we didn't complete earlier."

"Hahahaha! That makes sense!"

The two walked out of the property management office, and Sun Qi led him to the bicycle parking area, where there was a row of electric bikes.

"Can you ride? Or should I teach you?"

"meeting."

Sun Qi tossed Shenhe a key, "Electric bikes are great, they're flexible, faster than walking, and they're silent."

The two rode out of the residential area one after the other.

The destination of this trip was a flower, bird, fish and insect market located three kilometers away from the residential area.

The market mainly sells various flowers and ornamental fish, with a small number of caged birds and exotic pets. Most of the remaining stalls are open-air stalls selling cats and dogs.

Sun Qi admitted that he had never been inside. He had only noticed an unusual spiritual light emanating from inside when he passed by the market before. It was very similar to the glowing fruit he had eaten before, so he remembered it.

The road was clear, with only some abandoned cars on it. Occasionally, you could see corpses sitting in some cars or zombies trapped in seat belts.

Shenhe followed behind, and whenever he saw a clean car, he put it into his system inventory to use as a stone later.

Soon, the two arrived at the market entrance and peered inside, tilting their heads to look.

The entire flower, bird, fish and insect market is a U-shaped steel frame shed with a cross road running through the middle, dividing the market into four areas.

On both sides of the market entrance, there are open-air flower stalls and odds and ends for growing flowers.

Inside, the east side is full of shops selling fresh flowers and potted plants, the west side is a whole row of glass fish tanks, the north side has rows of shelves full of all kinds of birdcages and stalls selling insects, and the south side is a shop selling cats, dogs, small pets and all kinds of pet supplies.

The market has a wide aisle in the middle that leads to every stall. It is very well planned, with stalls side by side and flowers, fish tanks and birdcages everywhere.

But now, this place has lost all its former vitality.

The flower and bird market, which should be filled with birdsong and the hustle and bustle of cats and dogs, is now deathly silent, with not a single living creature to be heard.

The plastic sheeting on the roof of the greenhouse was riddled with holes of all sizes, and the exposed steel frame stood crookedly, with withered branches and tattered plastic sheeting hanging from it.

The surrounding walls were covered with cracks, large chunks of plaster were peeling off, and tangled vines spread wildly and grew rampantly along the cracks, creating a lush green landscape.

Wild grass grew wildly at the base of the wall, reaching waist height and completely burying the old sidewalk.

Cars were parked on the street, their windows shattered and scattered on the ground, their bodies covered with weeds and vines, making it impossible to make out the shape of the cars.

There was a large parking lot in the distance, with more than a dozen buses parked inside. Because it was far from the market entrance, it was not affected by vines.

A warm breeze swept past the dilapidated market gate, swirling up waste paper, plastic bags, and odds and ends on the ground, causing them to drift aimlessly through the empty and deserted streets.

The entire area was deathly still; not a single person could be seen on the streets, and even the wandering zombies had vanished without a trace.

A draft swept through the empty alleyway, howling and whistling, the air thick with the stench of rotting corpses.

The vegetation was lush and overgrown, while the buildings were dilapidated and crumbling.

The whole area looked both lush and desolate.

"That glowing fruit is in the flower market to the east. Do you really want to go in? Last time I came here, it was full of zombies."

We don't know where they went, but what if they're all inside? There's no fence here; if a horde of zombies bursts out, the two of us can't fight them off.

Sun Qi hunched over slightly, his back stiff, his hands clenched into fists, looking around, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, and his breathing very lightly.

Shenhe keenly noticed his momentary tension, his gaze sweeping over him before he calmly questioned, "You seem very afraid of this place?"

Sun Qi paused, his Adam's apple bobbing. His eyes darted around, avoiding the dark corners, and he forced a dry laugh as he explained.

"Uh... I'm just naturally afraid of the dark. I always feel like something might suddenly jump out of the dark in this place, which is kind of creepy."
