For That Vote!

"Lu Qiang, what do you need?"

Shang Qian opened the dorm room door a crack, revealing half her body as she glanced warily at the security guard, Lu Qiang.

It was the same person, but she felt something was different.

Lu Qiang stared at Shang Qian's clean, full figure, feeling his male desires stir.

He chuckled.

"Director Shang, why don't we talk in your room?"

Shang Qian gave him a disgusted look and was about to close the door.

"It's inconvenient."

Who knew the usually honest, quiet security guard would suddenly shove his arm into the gap in the door?

Shang Qian couldn't close it despite her efforts, and her expression instantly turned cold.

"Lu Qiang, what do you mean? If you want food, I'll bring it to you later. This is pointless."

Lu Qiang grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth.

"Food? Haha, I am indeed here for food, but I want to eat something different today. Spice things up."

"Don't! Help... whimper..."

Lu Qiang forced the door open with brute strength, grabbed Shang Qian by the neck, and squeezed her throat with his calloused hands, making her unable to breathe.

Shang Qian's eyes widened, her full body pressed against the wall. Her hairpins were bent out of shape, and her feet kicked wildly at Lu Qiang.

"Bang!"

The door slammed shut.

Shen Jin stood at the entrance on the second floor, thinking for a moment before heading down to the first floor.

Using dynamics and gravitational acceleration, he roughly calculated the approximate area where a zombie would fall if it ran off the second floor and missed its step.

Then, he dug a 4-meter deep pit in that area.

It was quite a large area, but thankfully the ground was all soil, so digging with two shovels was fast.

After setting it up, Shen Jin broke out in a sweat, once again lamenting his shut-in physique.

To prevent the zombies from evolving agility as well, Shen Jin specifically built a sealed staircase from the second floor directly into the underground passage. If things went south, he could just escape underground.

Of course, if nothing went wrong, Shen Jin would bury this strength-type zombie, dismantle his setup, and then leave.

"Bang bang bang!"

Shen Jin stood to the side. The moment he dug open the alloy door with the diamond pickaxe (substandard), he swung his left hand.

Two stones suddenly rose in front of him, propping up against the ceiling.

As expected, the strength-type zombie inside lunged out, its hungry look resembling a virgin's first visit to a massage parlor.

Plop!

"Tsk tsk~ What thick skin and great strength."

The zombie fell from a height of 6 meters into the pit, but it immediately got up and clawed at the dirt, trying to climb out.

However, it was clearly just a brute zombie that had evolved strength, lacking the agility of a jumping zombie.

Shen Jin opened the two stones and entered the second-floor room, blocking the door behind him.

The zombie's roars from outside immediately quieted down.

The second-floor room was clearly where the owner lived. Many personal items were placed inside. Shen Jin took a casual look around. The various daily necessities in the outer room were scattered everywhere.

There were also some dirty liquids on the floor, likely zombie bodily fluids.

"Ew~~ That's disgusting."

The items in this room were too dirty, so Shen Jin wasn't interested in rummaging through them.

Shen Jin speculated that the strength-type zombie earlier was likely the owner, who had turned in his own home during the apocalypse and had been trapped there ever since.

"But how did it evolve into a strength-type zombie?"

Shen Jin shook his head, not dwelling on the question. He opened the door to the inner room, which the zombie hadn't reached yet.

Instantly, immense joy surged through him.

"This is a huge profit!"

This shop owner was definitely a military enthusiast! The room inside was filled with the owner's exquisite collections.

How amazing could the collection of a military enthusiast who sold security supplies be?

He casually picked up a satellite phone from the table.

It had a large antenna, a black body, and a stand for placing it. The design was very strong and unique.

"Hey, it's a maritime satellite phone. These things are quite expensive."

He dialed a few numbers casually and found that the device still had power and signal!

This is great! What if something happens later, maybe I can contact the authorities?

Shen Jin remembered what the authorities had said about their satellite phone number. He'd look for it in his diary later.

Next, Shen Jin collected everything he could see in the room!

[Acquired: Fine Steel Longsword * 1]

[Acquired: Maritime Satellite Phone * 2]

[Acquired: Tactical Backpack * 2]

[Acquired: Boutique Electric Baton * 1 (Power: 40%)]

After collecting everything, Shen Jin also found a camouflage binoculars.

He figured anything that could be brought to the second floor for private collection would be of good quality.

Shen Jin looked out through the second-floor window, "Tsk, 8x magnification, this clarity is like it's right in front of me!"

"Huh? Isn't that the Wanyu Company building? Good grief, let me see how many zombies are up there."

Slowly, Shen Jin's expression grew colder.

He saw Lu Qiang choking Shang Qian, his face filled with malice.

"Damn, what's happening in this world? I remember Lu Qiang used to be pretty honest, couldn't get a word out of him with three kicks, and now he dares to...!"

Shen Jin was furious. He knew what Lu Qiang was about to do.

Yes.

"Is there no one else up there? Hurry and stop him!"

Swiveling the binoculars, Shen Jin spotted someone on a protruding dormitory balcony nearby, holding binoculars and pointing at him.

Who is this?

The lens moved up, revealing that familiar receding hairline.

Director Wang!

"Holy crap, why are you looking at me! Shang Qian is about to be violated by someone else!"

On the other side.

Director Wang habitually stroked his source of wisdom and said to those around him, "Over at Haima Security, there's someone on the second floor. They probably made the commotion earlier."

"However... this person is a bit strange, wearing a full suit of iron armor, isn't it heavy? Huh? He's spotted us, why is he pointing at us?"

The others were silent for a moment and said, "Could he be saying he's coming here to save us?"

"Don't joke, how can one person save us? By charging up with an electric baton?"

"He's still pointing. Although I can't see his face under the helmet, I still feel like he's very anxious."

Qi Tong muttered softly, "Could it be..."

Everyone started to focus their attention. Although Sister Tong was a bit blunt when she spoke, her analysis and opinions on matters were always quite insightful.

"Could it be that he means we'll be pointed at if we play chess?"

"..."

Shen Jin looked at everyone opposite him looking confused and felt helpless. Human communication had become a problem. He really didn't know how their ancestors communicated before language was invented.

Shen Jin watched as Lu Qiang began sniffing Shang Qian's body, his actions becoming increasingly aggressive.

He recalled the question he had asked his niece that day:

If you encounter injustice on the road, what should you do?

Shen Jin actually had the answer in his heart long ago.

If he encountered such a situation in the wild, he would pretend not to see it and walk away directly. Even if it was a woman whose boyfriend had no power, Shen Jin wouldn't easily put himself in danger.

A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall.

Then, Shen Jin turned and entered the tunnel, heading directly for Wanyu Group.

As he walked quickly, memories flowed through his mind.

The day before he resigned, during the vote for the Planning Manager position, when everyone else voted for his niece to please the boss.

Only Shang Qian still cast a vote for him. After the results were announced, she left in anger and went to argue with the boss herself.

A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall, but a wise man should also have a noble spirit and act with a clear conscience!
