I Have a Shop of Infinite Resources

41 Radio and Watermelon

Tang Mingzhou and Tang Mingqi exchanged a glance as the seriousness of the matter dawned on them. They dashed to the warehouse to take a radio and put some lithium batteries in.

“Let’s hope we can reach them.”

A man’s anxious voice came through right after an initial burst of static.

“Can anybody read me? Is anyone there? This is Lehui Supermarket on Liankang Road, one story underground. We have twenty survivors here and we’re requesting immediate support, over!”

They learned from their previous encounters, however. You Cheng hardened his heart and quickly switched to another frequency.

They switched the radio off half an hour later.

They couldn’t take any more of it.

That was because, after switching the frequencies a few times, all they received were distress calls from all over South City.

There were begging, threats and cries. They came from the elderly, the children, and pregnant women who were about to give birth. However, there were more calls from helpless people who were surrounded by zombies.

However, they still couldn’t contact Uncle You’s men. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, it was still the best option available to them.

“I’m going out for a walk.” You Cheng stood up, feeling disappointed.

Tang Mingzhou patted his shoulder without saying a word.

You Cheng approached the main entrance of Cuidi Lake Garden without realizing it.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he remembered that Mr. Tang and the others were guarding the gate. And so, he rushed over.

His good friend was being too careless when he let the two elders guard the gate on the first day. Hopefully, nothing had happened!

However, when he got closer, he realized things were not what he expected.

He saw Mr. and Mrs. Tang had moved two chairs and sat in front of the security room, each of them holding a slice of watermelon and eating it with a spoon without a care in the world.

They would spit out a seed or two from time to time and then hit the mosquitoes using the fans in their hands.

“You…”

You Cheng felt as if he transported himself into another time. It was as if tonight was just another quiet summer night where the elderly would take their stools and sit on their front porch to enjoy the cool air.

“Cheng?” While Susu told her that there was no need to be too courteous with him, Mrs. Tang still greeted him seeing that they were going to join up with his uncle. “Here, let me cut a melon for you!

You Cheng was bewildered.

“This is just nice. You can have one half while Susu can have the other half. She’s sleeping inside, so don’t wake her up.”

You Cheng glimpsed into the security room. He saw that the wind was blowing gently at the light blue curtain, faintly revealing the slender figure behind it.

It distracted him for a moment before he forced himself to look away. He faked a cough before asking, “Are there no zombies tonight? ”

“Oh, we killed them all,” Mr. Tang tried to say in a calming manner, but he couldn’t help but let out a grin. “There were about a hundred of them, but we killed them all in one fell swoop. We got tired after that, so we were having some watermelon for a snack.”

You Cheng frowned. So, while they were working hard to kill the zombies outside, Tang Susu was sleeping inside feeling nothing?

Even if she wouldn’t help, she shouldn’t be so comfortable about it!

Mrs. Tang was just about to praise Susu for killing over 20 zombies on her own when someone could be heard shouting nearby.

“Didn’t you say that you’ll give half of the watermelon to Susu and the other half to me? Why did you give it to him?”

It was Tang Mingchu, who had just returned from a stroll.

You Cheng had just dug out a spoonful of watermelon and his saliva had already filled his mouth. He didn’t even bring it to his mouth yet as he held the spoon in mid-air stiffly.

“…”

Wasn’t he worried about the people who were coming to find him? Why was he sitting in a chair and eating a watermelon?

“You can have it back.”

“I don’t want the one you’ve already eaten.” Tang Mingchu’s face was full of disgust.

It was at this moment that a long yawn came from behind the curtain.

The delicate figure was like a tiny hook, grazing at the surface of one’s heart.

“So noisy…”

Unhappiness filled her hoarse yet sweet voice. When You Cheng heard it, he felt as if a jolt of electricity had just shocked his entire body, leaving him with a numbing sensation for an instant.

Tang Mingchu ran in with displeasure on his face. “It’s all my fault. I hate him so much!”

“Fine, get rid of him…” Tang Susu said in a dreamlike state and kicked him impatiently.

A fair and flawless foot reached out from behind the curtain, but Tang Mingchu nudged it back in.

“Alright, Susu. There’s a pervert outside. Don’t let him see you!”

Meanwhile, the said “pervert” fled while the rest of the family was comforting her.
