While Jiang Liushi was driving, Zhang Hai asked, "Bro, your car’s space is so large . Why do you still drag a small van? What's in it?"
Jiang Liushi looked at them from the rear-view mirror and casually said, "Just some luggage . We can't go back to the old house, so I brought some things . "
" . . . "Yang Qingqing and others were stunned, because nobody would flee with a van full of luggage! Jiang Zhuying’s brother was strange enough . A trace of contempt appeared in their faces .
Maybe taking advantage of the apocalypse, Jiang Liushi got that car from somewhere . Even if he wanted to choose a car, he should have chosen a durable one instead of a luxury recreational vehicle made by someone who was rich and willful .
Yang Qingqing, as Jiang Zhuying’s classmate, knew a bit about her family’s condition . Optimistically, it could be classified below the average, to be more exact, her family should belong to those that needed financial support from the government .
Therefore, she felt more contempt for Jiang Liushi’s behavior .
[To think that, after the apocalypse, his most important need was to satisfy his vanity? To make things worse it was to drive a fancy mobile home? That kind of mentality probably originated from being extremely poor, as he couldn’t afford such luxuries . ]
[What’s more, he also drags a car full of useless things…]
If he was not Jiang Zhuying’s brother, they would not spare him and heavily reprimand him for his behavior .
Judging from the awkward silence, Jiang Liushi could, more or less, guess what they were thinking . However, he didn’t care about what they thought, it was not like he was going to reveal his secrets . They were strangers to him, naturally he couldn’t trust them, even though they were his sister’s subordinates . After all, in a post-apocalyptic world, things like trust were useless, as the survival of the individual came first .
Furthermore, the mutant beat meat was a large temptation for anyone, so he was not gonna tell them that in that shabby van there were tons of food . In fact, Jiang Liushi was quite satisfied with the situation as they had lost all interest in his cargo .
After, the minibus headed toward the community exit, they couldn’t help it but sigh in relief as they didn’t need to return again . They were going there, every day, only for Jiang Liushi’s sake . If Liushi had not arrived today, they’d have to drag the zombies’ bodies away, so they couldn’t attract other zombies, and return the next day to wait again . That was Jiang Zhuying’s order so that there would not be many zombies when her brother would arrive . If that community was suitable for survivors to live, they would have already been staying there .
Looking Jiang Zhuying excitedly talking with Jiang Liushi, Yang Qingqing was dissatisfied, but she would not show it .
Contrary to their expectations, on the way back they had encountered a few zombies, which were quickly electrocuted to death by Jiang Zhuying, because Jiang Liushi had chosen some back roads . Therefore, the ‘strange’ minibus had actually reached the accommodation safely . Of course, it was also largely due to their base’s position which was not far away from the community .
Although the community was not a good shelter, for the sake of her brother, Jiang Zhuying had tried hard to find a place close to it .
Their base was in a luxury-villa community with a big wall separating them from the zombies outside . There were not many residents, so the zombies were relatively fewer and it was easier to get rid of them .
"We live in that house . " Jiang Shuying pointed the way for Jiang Liushi and said . The minibus stopped in front of a villa . In Nanjing, just the lawns around a house was kind of a luxury, much less the four-layer house in the center .
"There was no one in the villa when we came . Everything was in order and clean, and there were plenty of rooms to settle down . "Jiang Zhuying said .
Jiang Liushi guessed that the original owner of that villa had perhaps left early like Li Yuxin's family .
"Jiang Brother, you can park your car on the lawn . It's big enough . " Yang Qingqing enthusiastically said .
But after listening to her, Jiang Liushi asked, "Is there a garage here? Are there any cars parked?"
"There is one . We have a few cars . . . " Yang Qingqing said .
Then Jiang Zhuying said, "Brother, do you want to park in the garage? That’s totally fine . Our cars are usually parked randomly . Haizi, go and ask someone to drive out of the garage . "
"Ah?" Zhang Hai thought for a moment, [Our cars are usually parked randomly?]
Yang Qingqing felt that her kind proposal was ignored . She looked at the siblings and felt more disdainful with Jiang Liushi, than she had been .
A junk car shouldn’t be parked in the garage…
Even if parking in the garage wasn’t a big deal, Yang Qingqing thought that the worn-out car didn’t deserve this arrangement .
"After you park the car, I'll take you to the room . Although the world is hectic, our accommodation condition is not bad," Jiang Zhuying said .
"I don’t need a room . I can sleep in the bus . Besides, how does the garage door open?"
In terms of accommodation, Jiang Liushi's car was good enough . Finally, Jiang Liushi not only arranged his own bedroom in the car, but also kept the only garage key; they had found only one garage key in the house .
In fact, the Mobile Construction Vehicle was connected to Starseed, so without Liushi’s permission no one could drive the car or open its door . Even so, he remained cautious . Though it was his sister’s territory he believed that he should stay vigilant as long as there were other people around .
Jiang Liushi’s behavior, staying in the bus and ignoring others, confused Yang Qingqing and the others .
Since meeting, Yang Qingqing considered Jiang Liushi as a bumpkin and he attached too much attention to his car . He probably didn't know what a paranormal was . Thanks to Jiang Zhuying, they had received a survivor like him . Normally, they would not even glance him at all .
"I think he values it so much because he stored all his family's property, so the mobile home is precious for him . But he picked a minibus to refit among so many fancy cars . He drives me crazy . He doesn’t know what is really valuable . " Yang Qingqing whispered to the quiet woman and shook her head at the same time .
That was an ordinary person’s mentality, from her point of view . In the post-apocalyptic world they struggled hard to survive, so it was natural to value some ridiculous things .
