The two faced each other at close range, and in the messy pharmacy, it seemed an invisible bowstring was gradually being pulled taut. After a while, Zhou Rong smiled humbly: “What are you talking about… this is so hurtful…”
“…I’m just being responsible for the people’s lives and property.”
The young man carefully examined Zhou Rong again, realizing he had misjudged earlier. This person was not from the local troops, but a discharged soldier who had stolen military equipment.
“Stop staring. Come with us. No one’s after your two packs of cookies,” Zhou Rong casually flicked a piece of splattered flesh from the young man’s shoulder. He said, “We’re going to the city center shelter to meet our teammates, pick up civilians, launch a positioning signal, and notify the local government to send a helicopter – T City will be wiped out by a nuclear bomb tomorrow. Here’s my credentials.”
Zhou Rong, with his blood-stained fingerless gloves, carefully took out a leather envelope from his chest, opening it to reveal an official document with a red stamp from the military.
He waved it arrogantly in front of the young man’s eyes, then carefully tucked the document back into his protective vest. “You can’t go anywhere alone. Individual heroism won’t work. You should accept the organization’s arrangement… What was your name again?”
A moment of silence.
The young man’s gaze fell on the overturned medicine box on the ground, which read “XX City Sinan Traditional Chinese Medicine Pieces Co., Ltd. (Yue 2011XXXX)”.
However, Sinan was very kind and did not take offense, nodding to the driver to indicate he was not disturbed, and then closed his eyes to feign sleep.
