Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse - Chapter 63
The three of them immediately turned to look.
At the doorway stood a young man with dyed red hair.
He was tall and muscular, with a masculine, handsome appearance.
At this moment, his brows were furrowed into a knot, his eyes flashing with a piercing light, his face full of irritation.
“What are you doing in my grandmother’s house? Where is my grandmother?”
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at the newcomer in surprise.
Isn’t this Xiao Feng, the hot-tempered guy who ranked sixth on the werewolf leaderboard in the last apocalypse, whom she had met once before at the dog shelter?
[Name: Xiao Feng!
Age: Nineteen!
Ability: Fire-based supernatural ability!
Ability Level: High-rank Level One!
Goodness Rating: 90%
Intimacy: -10%]
Looking at the information displayed on the Scumbag Detection Panel, Yun Xiaoxiao was even more surprised.
This person was only nineteen years old!
She had thought he was twenty-one or twenty-two before.
However, she couldn’t be blamed for misjudging.
Who told him to always have such a stern face, as if everyone owed him millions?
Of course he would appear older that way.
But for such a hot-tempered person to have a 90% goodness rating!
It really was… appearances can be deceiving.
As for the -10% intimacy, Yun Xiaoxiao didn’t pay much attention to it.
From what he said, this house belonged to his grandmother.
They had appeared here, essentially occupying someone else’s place, so it would be strange if he had any goodwill towards them.
Yun Xiaoxiao pointed at a small mound of earth in the courtyard.
“Your grandmother is in there.”
Xiao Feng: !!
“You killed my grandmother?!”
His eyes looked as if they were about to spit fire.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, young man, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t just say whatever you want, you know. We didn’t kill your grandmother. She turned into a zombie, and that’s why we had to kill her,” Nie Yizhou hurriedly explained.
He still had a piece of beef in his mouth, making his speech a bit unclear.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Feng flicked his fingers, shooting out a spark of fire towards him.
“Oh, crap!”
Nie Yizhou dodged with serpentine movements, quickly moving out of the way.
The flame immediately flew into the house, burning a black mark on the floor.
Nie Yizhou instantly became furious.
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you so hot-tempered? I already explained, and you still try to burn me with fire. Think you’re so great because you have fire?
Once someone becomes a zombie, they’re not really human anymore. If we didn’t kill her, were we supposed to wait for her to bite us?
When you see a zombie, do you not kill it? Do you shake hands and make peace, drink and chat instead?!”
Nie Yizhou rattled off a torrent of words in one breath.
“Are you a parrot or something? Chattering on with a basket full of nonsense!”
Xiao Feng glared at Nie Yizhou, then swept his gaze over the three of them.
“If it weren’t for the fact that you buried my grandmother, I definitely wouldn’t let this matter go today.
Now, get out of my house!”
“Big brother, but… we’re still eating. Can we leave after we finish?” Yun Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and smiled slightly.
Given their strength, they could easily force him out or kill him and take over the house if they wanted to.
However, it’s better to make a friend than an enemy.
Being too unreasonable and aggressive wasn’t advisable.
They weren’t psychopathic killers who murdered everyone they saw.
Moreover, they had indeed occupied someone else’s house, so they were in the wrong to begin with.
Xiao Feng looked at her for a moment, seeming to recognize her.
His eyes flickered for a second, then he frowned.
“Hurry up and eat, then get lost.”
After saying this, he no longer looked at the three of them, but walked towards the small mound of earth and knelt down.
“Grandma, Little Feng came too late, I’m sorry…”
Seeing his demeanor, Nie Yizhou rubbed his nose, temporarily deciding not to dwell on being called a parrot.
The three returned to the dining table and continued eating.
After a while, Xiao Feng came in from the courtyard.
When he saw the hot pot feast on the table, his expression visibly paused for a moment.
Yun Xiaoxiao even noticed his Adam’s apple move suspiciously.
He only paused for a second before walking towards the room that Nie Yizhou had previously occupied.
It seemed that the few pieces of boys’ clothing they had seen in there earlier were his.
However, judging by the looks of things, he probably hadn’t been back for many years.
Xiao Feng entered the room and closed the door.
He surveyed the furnishings inside, his eyes gradually reddening.
After so many years, this room was almost exactly the same as when he had left.
Grandma had always been thinking of him!
Damn it, he had come back too late!
If only he could have returned a bit earlier.
Perhaps then, grandma wouldn’t have turned into a zombie, wouldn’t have…
He frustratedly kicked the cabinet.
But at that moment, a faint, almost imperceptible aroma seemed to form a line, rushing straight into his nostrils.
Xiao Feng’s Adam’s apple immediately bobbed.
He frowned, staring intently at the door.
Who exactly were those three?
In this apocalyptic world, how could they still leisurely eat hot pot!
Looking at those dishes, they all seemed very fresh.
And there was… so much meat…
As he thought about it, Xiao Feng unconsciously swallowed again.
He frowned in frustration.
It must be because he was too hungry!
He untied the bag he carried with him and took out its contents.
There were cookies, bread, bottled water, some chocolate, and half a pack of instant noodles.
He picked up the remaining half pack of instant noodles. The noodles inside had been crushed, and the powdered seasoning packet had been sprinkled inside.
He directly poured the contents of the bag into his mouth.
Compared to bread and cookies, which were too sweet, he naturally preferred food with a stronger flavor.
He had already opened and eaten several packs of instant noodles before.
It would taste better if cooked, but without hot water, he had to make do like this.
He stuffed a large mouthful into his mouth and chewed.
As he chewed, he began to frown.
Smelling the aroma of meat from outside, the image of what he had seen earlier floated in his mind.
What had seemed delicious before now tasted like chewing on wax.
It tasted awful!
He swallowed with difficulty and took a big gulp of water.
Forget it, he wouldn’t eat anymore!
The more he ate, the hungrier he felt.
Not physically, but mentally!
He frustratedly tied up the remaining small bag of instant noodles and put it back in his bag.
“Knock knock knock~”
There was a knocking sound at the door.
Xiao Feng walked over curiously and opened the door.
But…
He didn’t see anyone.
He was about to close the door when he looked down and finally saw Yun Xiaoxiao standing at the doorway.
Yun Xiaoxiao, noticing his action: ……
Was she really that short?!
“What is it?”
Seeing the bowl full of meat and vegetables in Yun Xiaoxiao’s hands, Xiao Feng’s eyes flickered, and his throat involuntarily moved again.
“Brother, this is for you to eat. Consider it as rent for using your grandmother’s house,” Yun Xiaoxiao said with a smile, her eyes curving into crescents, shining brightly, making it hard for anyone to refuse.
“You didn’t poison it, did you?” Xiao Feng frowned.
Yun Xiaoxiao chuckled, “Do you think your life is worth more than this bowl of meat right now?”
