Chapter 122 The Thieves

From this day on, the people in the safe zone were divided into two different classes. The first class was the working people who needed to work every day, and the second class was the fighters who were trained every day. In addition to these awakened people, the army recruited 300 reserves from other survivors and trained recruits in regular army every day. The training content included three items: absolute lack of commands; physical exercise; and mastery of firearms.

To Xie Tian's surprise, Eric's actual combat skills were the same as his marksmanship, and he was also very powerful. After asking, he realized that Eric's Marine Corps was not an ordinary Marine, but an elite team in the Marine Corps. For many years, he had accompanied the US army to carry out combat missions everywhere. Everyone's qualities were much stronger than ordinary special forces.

Among other military members, there are many who are good at fighting, but the fighting routines of soldiers from China and the United States are different, so they simply let the people participating in the training train two fighting tactics together to maximize the training effect.

As for other workers, they began to concentrate on strengthening the defense of the safety zone. The trench and trench along the entire safety zone's exterior wall have been excavated. The drain pipe found in the power plant has been applied. From the wall to the trench outside the wall, there is one every fifty meters away, so that when needed, the trench and trench can be quickly replenished and increased. The exterior wall has also begun to be further reinforced and increased, with a height of four meters. Sharp-sharp steel bars are inserted into the concrete, so that e2 with extremely strong jumping ability can be prevented to a certain extent.

Xie Tian also opened a greenhouse in the power plant that was used to store coal as a free trading market. Survivors can trade various materials here. The safe area does not withdraw any fees from it. As long as the two parties reach a transaction intention, they can complete the transaction freely. In this way, survivors have another thing to waste time in addition to work, that is, to visit the market, sell their useless things, and then exchange them for what they need.

As food is no longer a problem, demand for food, culture and entertainment has begun to increase. The dormitory area has 24-hour power supply, computers, smartphones, and handheld game consoles have suddenly become the most popular materials on the market. As for the LCD TVs in containers, no one cares about them, and there is really no TV program to watch now.

As soon as the market opened, the thief who had been staring at him for many days finally made a move! Everyone thought that this kid's patience was really good. After enduring for so many days, it finally surfaced.

The thief was a young man under Du Yuewei, who was less than 20 years old. The boy slipped out of the dormitory alone late that night. He dug out the food he stole that day from the coal pile in the coal yard. He happened to be caught by Song Hui and others who had been staring at him.

Song Hui locked him in an empty room in the General Control Building all night, and found Xie Tian early the next morning, and said, "I have been watching for so many days, the little one who steals things... was finally caught by me!"

Xie Tian smacked his lips and said, "This bastard is able to bear it. He stole thirty kilograms of supplies and endured it for so many days before it surfaced."

Song Hui smiled and said, "The person locked him in the office all night."

"Have you explained?" Xie Tian asked.

"I've explained it." Song Hui said: "This kid has learned acrobatics for several years, and his body is soft and sensitive, so climbing the dormitory building is very easy for him. After he stole the food, he hid it because he wanted to keep it for him when he was greedy or there was no job in the safe area to provide him with it, but then we started to supply everyone's food in sufficient quantities. This time the market opened, and he wanted to change his laptop, so he wanted to take out the stolen supplies."

Xie Tian smiled and said, "I didn't expect that what led him out in the end was a laptop. It's so full and warm, thinking about lust..."

"What does this have to do with lust..." Song Hui said awkwardly.

"Just watch movies. As long as it is a computer used by men, who doesn't have any inventory?"

Song Hui smiled helplessly and asked, "Then what should we do with this person?"

Xie Tian said lightly: "Although stealing is not to be shot, this kind of bad sheep still needs to be punished, otherwise it will not be enough to quell the public's anger. Even the widow's pension is really not a conscience."

Song Hui said with some embarrassment: "How can we punish him now? Let him be in prison? You have to give him food, right? That's a cheaper one, you can get food without working."

Xie Tian patted his shoulder and said, "This is easy to deal with. Take it to the cafeteria during lunch. It depends on everyone's meaning. It can be regarded as a warning to the monkey. Then you will make a decision in detail. Lao Song, you are now the general manager of public security issues in the entire security area. You should make your own decisions."

"Come." Song Hui nodded and said, "I'll take him over at noon."

More than a thousand new people were unaware of this theft case. After Song Hui took the young man to the cafeteria at noon, he spent a few more talk and repeated the specific situation. Then he asked, "Now the thief has been arrested, I want to ask everyone's opinions, what should I do?"

"Shoot!" A roar came from the crowd: "Even widow's pension is concerned. What's the use of keeping such a person without shooting? The black sheep!"

As soon as these words came out, many people agreed. The depressed boy in front of Song Hui and the one who was indifferent to each other was frightened and cried out in an instant. He kept kowtowing on the ground and said, "I was just confused for a while, I was really confused for a while. Otherwise, I wouldn't steal other people's things. I was just afraid of being hungry. Seeing so many supplies, I made a mistake because I felt itchy. Please give me a chance to be a new person, and I will definitely correct it!"

"Shoot!" The masses didn't seem to buy it, and there were endless people who called to shoot, but in fact, the people who called to shoot were just young men. They had loud voices and liked to join in the fun.

The stolen widow stood up and shouted: "Give him aside this time, he is still a child."

Because the sound of shooting was too loud, the widow said something, Song Hui did not hear clearly. Then, he signaled everyone to calm down first, and the widow repeated the words just now.

This time, it won the approval of many women, and they all said that they could spare him this time, as long as he ensured that he would not make any more mistakes next time.

Du Yuewei stood up and said coldly: "First of all, I apologize to everyone. This black sheep was brought into the safe zone. Please forgive me." After Du Yuewei said that, she said: "As for how to deal with him, let me be fair. Since he has done something that harms the interests of the safe zone, it is difficult to convince the public. So just drive him out of the safe zone."

Du Yuewei's words really won the approval of most people. They just steal things. If they are too strict in killing, these people will also consider themselves. If they steal things and want to be shot, then if they make any mistakes in the future, wouldn't it be a bad ending? But if they spared him, they wouldn't feel relieved and drove him out, which was the relatively best result.

Song Hui then said, "Let's do this, everyone shouted that I can't hear clearly. Those who support shooting, please raise your hand."

There were not many people raising their hands, but they were all young men with loud voices watching the fun and smiling. Then, Song Hui asked again: "Where are you who support and forgive him?"

This time, there were only twenty or thirty women raising their hands. As soon as Du Yuewei said that, many people had turned against each other.

“What do you support driving out of the safe zone?”

With a swish, most people raised their hands.

Song Hui nodded and said to the thief: "Since this is what everyone wants, then you should prepare, take your own things and leave the safe zone immediately."

When the young man heard this, his face turned pale and he knelt on the ground and said, "Uncle, Auntie, Brother and Sister, you guys are fine. There are so many zombies outside now. If I really drive me out, I will have no way to survive!" As he said, he began to slap himself vigorously, and while slapping, he said, "I call you a slut, and call you a slut!"

Song Hui stopped him. This time, Song Hui no longer seemed to be the one who was once kind-hearted and said coldly: "Since this is what everyone wants, it will be useless for you to ask for it. I will accompany you to the dormitory now, pack your things and send you out of the safe area!"

The young man looked as if he was ashes. He suddenly stood up and said, "There is nothing in my dormitory. I have five kilograms of rice tickets in my pocket. I want to exchange them for rice."

Xie Yufei stood up and said, "Give me your rice tickets, I'll exchange them for you now."

The young man took out the rice ticket of five kilograms of rice from his pocket, handed it to Xie Yufei, and said, "I have a car with a Touareg with a 555th suffix."

"For you." Song Hui said, "You can take away all your own things."

"Okay." The young man said to Du Yuewei: "You used the gasoline in my car to make the gasoline bombs for me, and you have to return it to me."

Du Yuewei said angrily: "Making petrol bombs is for the safety of the safe area. If you have been in the safe area for so many days, aren't you obliged to contribute to the safety of the safe area?"

Then, Du Yuewei snorted and said, "Okay, I'll pay you a box of oil! I don't owe each other, so as not to come to me to collect debts in the future!"

Soon, Xie Yufei came back with a small bag of rice, handed it to the young man, and said, "Five kilograms, no bad at all."

Song Hui pushed him from behind and said, "Let's go, fill up the oil, drive into your car, and leave with your rice."

After Song Hui and other joint defense personnel took the young man out of the canteen, Chen Jing walked to Xie Tian and said with a hesitation expression: "Xie Tian, ​​I have something to do and I want to tell you alone."

Zhao Ziye looked at Chen Jing, but felt a little uncomfortable. She once asked Xie Tian how he met Chen Jing. Xie Tian had no cover and told the truth casually. He learned that Chen Jing was Xie Tian’s former girlfriend, and the two had been living outside the school for more than a year. At this moment, Chen Jing came to Xie Tian again and wanted to talk to him alone. Zhao Ziye felt a little jealous, but he didn’t dare to show it.

Xie Tian didn't know what Chen Jing had to look for him, so he nodded and left the cafeteria with Chen Jing. As soon as he left the cafeteria, Chen Jing pulled Xie Tian to a corner without a man. His expression was still very entangled. He wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it.

"What's wrong?" Xie Tian couldn't help asking.

"Just..." Chen Jing hesitated for a long time, and gritted his teeth and said, "When the young man who stole things was taken out by Brother Song, I really wanted to feel something was wrong."

"Why is something wrong?" Xie Tian asked in confusion.

"I really want to feel a strong resentment in him." Chen Jing looked at Xie Tian and said seriously.

Xie Tian smiled and said, "It is natural to be a little resentful when he was kicked out of the safe area, and it is understandable."

"It's not only that." Chen Jing said again: "I was vague and wanted to grasp a detail from his resentment, but it was too ridiculous and I couldn't believe it was true."

"What details?" Xie Tian frowned and asked.

Chen Jing began to hesitate again, which made Xie Tian feel helpless and said, "If you have anything, it doesn't matter if it is absurd. Look at the end of the world we are in now, is there anything more absurd than this?"

Chen Jing nodded and said, "Just just now when he passed by me, I felt that he had a strong resentment, but I seemed to hear the voice in his mind. The voice said: When I arrive at the Nanchang Security Zone and tell you all about the situation here, I will definitely bring people to kill you again!"

"What?" Xie Tian was stunned and blurted out: "Are you sure?"

"Confirm!" Chen Jing said, "Although I can't be sure if this is what he really thinks in his mind, I'm sure I really heard it."

"Fuck." Xie Tian hurried to find Lao Song. Chen Jing was stammering and struggling for the past half day, probably had delayed the time. Neither he and Song Hui carried the walkie-talkie, so it was really a leak now.

Under the supervision of Song Hui and other joint defense personnel, the young man opened his Touareg SUV and left the gate of the safety zone. At this time, Xie Tian happened to meet Song Hui who was walking back from the gate and asked hurriedly: "Where is the person who steals things?"

"It has been driven away." Song Hui said.

In a hurry, Xie Tian grabbed the walkie-talkie from Liu Mu's waist and blurted out, "Where is Eric?"

"He is on duty on the roof, and today is his post." A voice came from the walkie-talkie.

A moment later, Eric's voice came from the walkie-talkie, and he blurted out, "Is anyone looking for me just now?"

Xie Tian hurriedly said in English: "Eric, where is your Barrett?"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Show me where the Touareg that just left the city went?"

Eric happened to be on the top of the General Control Building, where he had been on duty. He immediately looked around and said, "Go to the northeast."

"Kill him!" That road was the road to Changbei, Xie Tian said without hesitation.

"Okay!" Eric didn't know what was going on, but his nature of obeying the orders still made him immediately fall down without thinking, quickly adjust the anti-equipment sniper rifle, locking the Touareg, which was gradually moving away.

Knowing that his gun had a distance of two thousand meters, the accuracy of his shooting would be greatly reduced. Eric dared not delay and aimed at the fastest speed and made predictions. In just over ten seconds, Xie Tian heard a gunshot from the General Control Building.
