Besides Zhang San and Li Si, there were others who were also eyeing them covetously.

They all wanted to pull off something big!

At this moment, Doctor Yang and the others...

...hadn't realized...

...that they had become like children carrying gold bricks and parading through the streets.

After all, having lived in a Star-Level Shelter for so long, they didn't find instant noodles and crude hunting rifles appealing at all.

Instead, they were even worried they wouldn't sell for a good price!

"Heh heh, big brother, are all the things you've put out for sale?"

Zhang San chuckled and approached, asking.

Ning Jing nodded, her face lighting up with joy.

She hadn't expected her luck to be so good.

Business had come knocking just as she had set up her stall.

"Three packs of instant noodles for one Energy Core, one hunting rifle for ten Energy Cores, no bargaining!"

Ning Jing introduced.

"Oh, how many do you have in total? I have quite a few people with me."

Zhang San's eyes darted around slyly.

He kept observing the positions of Doctor Yang and the others.

To make it easier to make a move.

"However many you want, I have however many."

Ning Jing didn't see through Zhang San's intentions and replied very straightforwardly.

As a researcher, Ning Jing had been well protected.

She had a touch of naivety about her.

She looked at the man in front of her, dressed in rags.

She couldn't help but feel a sense of pity.

She thought to herself.

If the man really needed too much, she could exchange it from the Shelter.

And then sell it to the man at a low price!

Just consider it charity.

As soon as Zhang San heard that there were a lot of supplies, his eyes immediately lit up.

His breathing quickened, and he stopped pretending.

He took a couple of steps and restrained Ning Jing.

A dagger was pressed against Ning Jing's waist.

"Hand everything over!"

Ning Jing hadn't expected this to happen.

She was instantly terrified.

Doctor Yang also noticed something was wrong and brought the other researchers over.

He said with an ugly expression, "What are you doing?"

Following Doctor Yang's reprimand, Zhang San said disdainfully, "Isn't it obvious what I want to do?"

"Sharing is caring. You don't look like you're lacking food or clothing."

"Instead of letting it expire, why not let us brothers fill our bellies?"

Clearly, this wasn't the first time Zhang San had done something like this.

He did it without any psychological burden!

"I advise you to let her go quickly! We are all residents of the Star-Level Shelter. If you do anything, the Star-Level Shelter won't let you off!"

Doctor Yang reprimanded.

However, Zhang San just laughed heartily.

He had once submitted an application to join the Star-Level Shelter.

But because he had no special skills and his physical condition was poor, he was rejected!

Since then, whenever Zhang San saw residents of the Star-Level Shelter, a surge of hatred would rise in his heart.

Why?

Everyone is human, why should there be different classes?

Now, seeing Doctor Yang and the others looking nervous, Zhang San felt extremely happy!

"You want me to let her go? Fine, hand over the food!"

"And those crude hunting rifles, bring them all over to me!"

Zhang San shouted.

Doctor Yang looked at Ning Jing with worry.

Finally, he nodded.

He placed all the bags and bundles in front of Zhang San.

Doctor Yang had no children his entire life.

So he treated students like Ning Jing as his own children, nurturing them.

He didn't want Ning Jing to get hurt for a bit of food!

Seeing this, Li Si.

Hurriedly went up and lifted all the backpacks.

He was covered in them!

"Alright, let's hurry and go." Li Si looked nervously in the direction of the Star-Level Shelter.

Afraid that the soldiers from the Star-Level Shelter would suddenly appear.

"Wait, we've given you the things, quickly let her go," Doctor Yang said loudly.

In Li Si's backpack, there were not only instant noodles and biscuits.

There were also several Crude Hunting Rifles.

Without weapons, the few researchers were no match for Zhang San and Li Si.

"Heh heh, let her go?"

"Such a beautiful woman is rarely seen."

Zhang San grinned.

Revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth!

Ning Jing suddenly felt a wave of nausea.

As if she had swallowed a fly.

"You, you, you!"

Doctor Yang was so angry he was about to faint.

Seeing this, several researchers stepped forward, wanting to rescue Ning Jing.

However.

The guns were in the hands of Zhang San and his brother.

What could a few defenseless researchers do?

Bang—

In the panic.

Zhang San pulled the trigger.

They only saw the bullet from the Crude Hunting Rifle pierce Doctor Yang's shoulder!

Fortunately, the Crude Hunting Rifle's power was still a bit lacking.

So Doctor Yang was temporarily out of mortal danger.

"You dare to hurt the teacher, I'll fight you to the death!"

Many researchers surged forward.

They wanted to use their bodies to block the gun barrel.

Just as Zhang San's eyes turned red and he was about to shoot again.

A cold voice rang out.

"Let them go."

Before Zhang San could react.

Ning Jing was directly rescued by Li Chen.

"Hmph, I advise you to mind your own business!"

Zhang San wiped the corner of his mouth and said coldly.

Doctor Yang and the others felt their hearts settle when they saw Li Chen.

Ning Jing clung tightly to Li Chen's arm, sobbing uncontrollably!

Just now, it was so close.

She thought she was going to die.

Even if she didn't die, she would be taken back by Zhang San and defiled.

Fortunately, Li Chen arrived in time!

At this moment, Li Chen's face was ashen.

He raised his head and said indifferently, "Do it."

Swish swish swish—

From behind Zhang San and Li Si, a squad of soldiers suddenly appeared.

Their muzzles were all aimed at the brothers' heads.

Before Zhang San and Li Si could beg for mercy.

Bang bang bang—

Consecutive gunshots rang out.

Both of them fell to the ground, their faces covered in blood!

Everyone around was stunned!

"Who is this person, so imposing?"

"He seems to be from a Star-Level Shelter too, and his position looks quite high."

"Heh heh, Zhang San and Li Si were always targeting people from the Star-Level Shelter, and now they're getting their comeuppance! As the saying goes, if you walk by the river often, how can your shoes not get wet?"

"Alright, everyone quiet down, lest the warriors from the Star-Level Shelter think we're in league with Zhang San."

Many people were discussing amongst themselves.

Those who had been robbed by Zhang San and Li Si were clapping and cheering.

There were also some who had planned to rob others.

At this moment, they were all silent, watching.

"The residents of the Star-Level Shelter are not people you can bully."

"Arrange personnel to patrol here. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on a Star-Level Shelter resident will be killed without mercy."

Li Chen glanced at the corpses of Zhang San and Li Si, then waved his hand.

Someone immediately came forward to clean up.

And immediately replied, "Yes!"

At this moment.

Only then did everyone recognize him.

Li Chen was the Commander of the Star-Level Shelter!

"Oh my god, the Commander is personally out on patrol. The people of the Star-Level Shelter are too lucky."

"So this is the Commander of the Star-Level Shelter, woo woo woo, he's too young."

"No wonder he's so imposing. Sigh, how great would it be if I were the Commander of the Star-Level Shelter."

"You? Just forget it. Hurry back to sleep, you'll have everything in your dreams."

There were also some residents of the Star-Level Shelter in the market.

Seeing Li Chen arrive, they all came up to greet him.

When they heard that someone would be patrolling the market from now on.

Expressions of gratitude appeared on their faces.

Li Chen faced everyone's enthusiasm.

He just waved his hand in response.

Immediately after, he looked at Doctor Yang.
