The four of them headed deeper into the western part of the area.
Across from the office is the storage room for seized items.
"Let's go in and take a look; maybe there's something good there."
45's scavenging instincts as 404 were once again aroused, and he walked towards the storage room, with the other three following closely behind.
The storage room is lined with cabinets on both sides and in the middle. The cabinet in the middle has a combination lock, but several buttons on top are missing for some reason.
416 frowned as he looked at the input buttons: "What do we do? We need to find these buttons."
"No, no need."
45 took out his laptop and plugged the data cable into the port next to it.
"I can hack into this place directly; you guys keep watch over the surroundings for me."
45 sat down on the floor and began hacking into the laptop. The other three, seeing this, went outside to stand guard.
The surrounding area consisted of only a few scattered zombies, which they quickly cleared away.
A few minutes later, 45 unplugged the data cable, and instantly, all the cabinet doors in the storage room popped open at the same time.
"All right."
45 stood up from the ground, and his teammates returned to the storage room one after another, starting to scavenge the supplies in the cabinets.
It's nothing more than ammunition, gunpowder, and the like.
However, 45 found a shotgun in a cabinet (shotguns will be censored).
It should be a police-issue M870.
However, they don't have a suitable silencer, so they might not be able to use it.
But after some consideration, 45 still took it with him.
The four temporarily halted their search mission and began looting.
.....
3:39:47AM
The Rebellion Squad and Leon arrived at the underground parking lot.
They met Ida Wong here.
Because Lofan had uploaded Ida's photo to the Rebellious Squad in advance, AK12 and the others did not show much suspicion about it.
But this was the second time Ada and Leon had met.
Ada looked at the girls behind Leon with a strange expression: "Where did you find all these fully armed bodyguards?"
"Uh... someone asked me to help them," Leon said awkwardly.
Ada glanced at it and then ignored it.
"You have the key card, right?"
Lyon suddenly realized: "Yes, there's this too."
He then tossed the tape to Ada.
"I hope you can explain what happened."
Lyon's eyes turned cold.
Ada looked at Leon, unable to guess his thoughts from his expression.
"Perhaps... I need to listen to it once first... Let's go."
Ada then headed towards the exit of the underground parking lot, while Leon went to the card reader and inserted his access card.
The access card opened immediately, and the rebellious squad followed the two men away.
The members of the Rebellion Squad began communicating in the internal channel.
RPK16: "What do you think the Commander wants us to do by helping this guy?"
AN94: "I don't know, the commander was just emphasizing the importance of the objective to us."
AK15: "Just follow the commander's orders. The commander has his reasons for doing so."
AK12: "It doesn't matter. Judging from his current performance, I don't have high hopes for him. As long as the target doesn't die before the mission ends, that's fine."
AK15: "......"
In fact, AK15 thought so too; she really couldn't see any value in the target that needed to be protected.
But she wouldn't question the commander's orders.
AK12: "Alright, that's enough. Let's see if these two will discuss the information we want."
The four then left the internal channel and silently followed Ada and Leon.
The six people left the underground parking lot and entered the city.
"So what are you investigating?"
"Investigate more information to find out who is responsible for this chaos."
Sure enough, the two began to discuss some useful information.
Ada replied emotionlessly, "So what are you here for, to save the world?"
“I promised Sheriff Bernard I would bring back reinforcements.” Leon’s face was resolute, but this expression made the members of the Rebellion Squad feel contempt.
Your teammates are all dead...
"Then I wish you good luck."
Ada replied casually, seemingly not taking it too seriously.
Then, the two continued walking forward in silence.
Because the area was relatively clean, the group decided to walk directly along the main road.
However, the road is under repair and cannot be crossed directly.
“The road is blocked…” Ida frowned.
"Looks like we'll have to go through that gun shop."
Ada looked down at the gun shop on the street.
Then, everyone followed him over.
The door was locked.
Ida crouched down, intending to pry open the lock.
But AK15 walked straight up to the door.
"let me..."
With the AK15's low-frequency sound, her imposing presence and figure made Ada instinctively give her space.
AK15 simply placed his hand on the doorknob and gave it a quick tug.
Then, with a sudden burst of force, the door was pushed open.
They forcefully broke open the door.
Then, AK15, holding the gun, entered the gun shop while remaining on guard.
Ada frowned and asked Leon, "Where did you find these people? How could they open a locked door with their bare hands?"
This stumped Lyon again.
"It was really just support from someone else..."
Seeing Leon's attitude, Ada rolled her eyes and walked into the gun shop on her own.
As AK12 passed by Ada, he said to her, "Don't worry about it too much, that's just how she is, you'll get used to it."
Ada was puzzled by this lighthearted attitude.
Lyon could only helplessly spread his hands.
The group finally entered the gun shop.
58 Father and Daughter
3:44:47AM
The gun shop was a complete mess.
The floor was covered with debris from the walls, and there was hardly anything left on the shelves; some shelves had even been overturned.
Because someone passed by here a few tens of minutes ago...
But none of the six knew about this news.
Ida was crouching on the ground, seemingly searching for something.
Leon walked to the back door of the gun shop to check the situation behind him, with the Rebellion Squad following behind him.
But as soon as I stepped out the back door...
"Don't move!"
A man in a black and yellow plaid shirt came out and raised a shotgun, aiming it at Lyon.
Upon seeing this, the rebellious squad immediately came out from the back door and aimed their guns at the man.
Leon simply replied, "I won't hurt you..."
"I said don't move!" The man became increasingly agitated.
"We're just passing by; we hope you can lay down your weapons."
Lyon's attitude remained very sincere.
Meanwhile, the members of the Rebellious Squad began communicating again in the internal channel.
AN94: "The target is in danger, what should we do?"
RPK16: "Take him down?"
AK12: "Wait, let's observe first..."
The man's attitude was extremely rude: "I don't believe you! Turn around and go back to where you came from!"
As he said those words, Leon looked at the man.
But behind the man, he saw a little girl.
Her blue and white striped clothes were stained with blood, her face was pale, and she looked to be in very bad shape.
Lyon said, "Sir, I think your daughter needs help."
"I don't need you to tell me how to take care of my daughter!"
"Put your gun down!" Ada also came out of the back door, raising her gun and aiming it at the man along with the Rebellion Squad.
Being targeted by five people at the same time, the man became a little nervous, raised his gun, but had already begun to slowly retreat.
The Rebellion Squad was targeting the man, but Ada was targeting the little girl.
She was slowly walking towards the girl.
Upon seeing Ida's actions, the man cried out in alarm, "No, wait!" He stood in front of her, raising his free left hand to try and stop her.
But Ada only stopped walking; she still held the gun in her hand.
"Get out of the way, we must deal with her before she changes."
Absolutely no emotion...
P.S.: For a better reading experience, I recommend listening to "Believe Again" by Cobby Costa below. (No need to repeat, one listen is enough.)
This inevitably improved AK12 and AK15's impression of Ada, but AN94 and RPK16's expressions turned sour.
The man's hands began to tremble slightly: "'Resolve'? She's my daughter!"
Leon said, "Ada, don't get involved..."
Seeing this, Ada had no choice but to put down her gun.
