Chapter 409: Chapter 128: Our Boss is a Terrifying Being Who Can Shatter Granite with a Single Punch_3
"Lucky Number."
"Lucky Number? Then do you recognize a survivor named Wang Chao?"
He thought of Brother Chao. Since he had parted ways with Brother Chao, he had not seen the other man. He didn’t regret the choice he made back then—not one bit. Everyone had their own ideas, and he didn’t want to wander around. Seeing the place was nice, he decided to stay here, and looking back now, he could tell his choice was wise.
In his heart, Brother Lin was the real deal.
"Don’t know him."
Guan Hao hadn’t expected Brother Chao to be so unknown that he hadn’t made a name for himself by now.
In his memory,
Brother Chao was brave and daring, willing to fight and work hard. A character like that should be the center of attention anywhere, unlike him, who was content with his lot, without much ambition, just wanting to live, not needing to be extraordinary.
Since they didn’t know him, there was no point in discussing Brother Chao any further.
"This is an outer shelter of Sunshine District, how’s life on Lucky Number?" Guan Hao asked.
"Not so good, we had to go out to find supplies on our own."
"You guys don’t look like bad people, are you interested in learning about the living conditions and rules of Sunshine District?"
"How can you tell we’re not bad people?"
They remained guarded around this young man who wanted them to get to know the place. After all, they lived in a time when anything terrible could happen. Someone could deceive them into entering, then strip them of all their supplies, or use them as bait to attract zombies. These were all possibilities.
Guan Hao said, "You just mentioned that life hasn’t been good, and you must be worn out. Anyone still robust at this point must be capable. Plus, it’s easy to read it in your eyes."
The three survivors standing there exchanged looks, swayed by his logic, which was bizarre and yet somehow made sense.
"Do you know if Xia Ya is with you guys?" asked one of the female survivors.
She knew Xia Ya had been taken to Sunshine District. She had even heard others saying that Xia Ya was doomed, having followed someone to Sunshine District, probably about to break down.
"Yes, Xia Ya, the big star, is right here in Sunshine District. She’s living very well."
Guan Hao also liked Xia Ya and was a regular fan. Looking back, it was clear that good people attracted other good people, easily drawing them together.
The female survivor didn’t speak, her mind conjuring images that must be pixelated, that Xia Ya had become that kind of thing, colloquially known as the unspeakable.
Guan Hao noticed their expressions seemed off and said in surprise, "You seem to have some bias against this place. It’s definitely not what you think it is. I understand your experiences and why you would think that way. But if you trust me, you can come and see for yourself. This place welcomes anyone who has hope for the future."
The three survivors standing outside exchanged looks.
Clearly, they were considering the situation, wondering whether to have a look inside.
Inside.
Two men and a woman. The other survivor, a driver, was dead set against entering.
As they entered and saw the situation inside, the three survivors were a bit shocked. The scene before them was different from what they had expected; it didn’t have the oppressive feeling of Lucky Number. Though there weren’t many other survivors, they could see genuine smiles on their faces.
Guan Hao, like a tour guide, explained, "I’ve been living here for a while. Everyone is cleaning up the environment. The shops around us are our homes. We have a kind of rule here—it’s not really a rule. It’s like usual, working to earn money, using money to buy supplies. But honestly, whether you make money or not, it’s all the same here; everyone gets enough to eat."
The three survivors truly hadn’t expected to find a place like this in the post-apocalyptic world.
Some other survivors came toward them.
Guan Hao said with a smile, "Nice, you’ve bought so many dried vegetables. What are you planning to do with them?"
The survivor replied with a smile, "Making some hotpot. Haven’t had hotpot in a long time, I’ve been craving it."
Guan Hao said, "Then you have to save me a pair of chopsticks."
"No problem, but you have to bring beer, and sausages, and instant noodles."
"Sure, no problem."
The survivors following Guan Hao were dumbfounded.
What the hell?
Hotpot?
In this situation, they could still have hotpot? It seemed incredible.
Seeing their shocked faces, Guan Hao laughed and said, "Actually, when they first came, their expressions were exactly like yours. It’s really nice here, nicer than you can imagine. I know you’re the same kind of people as us. If things are really bad on Lucky Number, don’t go back. Stay here and work on living with us. I can’t promise much, but having enough to eat and safety is guaranteed. All you need to do is work every day."
"I feel like what you’re saying is like being in a dream," one of the survivors remarked.
Guan Hao laughed, "If dreams could be like this, then we’re dreaming right now."
And then.
"Look, there’s the big star Xia Ya. See if that’s her."
They all turned their eyes toward the distance, and what they saw was Xia Ya. They were shocked at first glance. In their memory, Xia Ya at Lucky Number was in dire straits, worn out, so emaciated she had lost all spirit, evolving toward becoming a walking corpse.
But now the Xia Ya they saw was still radiant, wearing clean clothes, a smile on her face as she conversed with other survivors, as if discussing something important.
