Chapter 890: Chapter 388 Galaxy Building (Part 1)

Lin Meng didn’t dare make a sound and quickly crawled into the pipe. After Lin Wu came up and didn’t find anyone, he could only crawl into the pipe as well. At this time, the water in the pipe was nearly half full, and the force of the water flow was stronger. Fortunately, the pipe was narrow, allowing them to use their body strength against the flow, which enabled the three of them to move against the current.

Xiao Wu was still very reliable. He quickly pushed open the manhole cover, observed for a while, and realized that the noise of the flowing water masked the noise he made. The nearest zombie was only seven meters away; he did not alert the zombie and used a pillar to hide, quietly waiting by the manhole cover.

When Lin Meng appeared, Xiao Wu first made a shushing gesture. Lin Meng, with her hands raised, stood up but couldn’t climb out quietly without making much noise. In an instant, Lin Meng felt like she was being picked on by Dawn. Fortunately, Lin Wu arrived shortly after and lifted her up. However, Lin Wu did not know she couldn’t get up, just felt that she was blocking his way.

Looking at Lin Wu’s exit, it was very smooth; he simply pushed with his hands, curled into a ball, leaned back, and effortlessly left the sewer. Xiao Wu pointed towards the direction of the zombie, Lin Wu nodded, drew his blunt dagger, and executed it.

Lin Wu then made a round in the vicinity, took down another zombie, and created a temporary safe zone with a 15-meter diameter. At this time, Lin Wu also had a clear understanding of the terrain. Clearly, this was a basement, a common underground parking lot composed of parking spaces and pillars. Daylight lamps were used for lighting, making the environment relatively bright.

Lin Wu said, "Check the equipment."

The mobile phone was fine, waterproof. The pistol might have issues but would still work when dry. Apart from not knowing the status of the satellite phone, drone, and batteries, there were basically no issues. They ate some chocolate and energy bars on the spot, drank some water, and rested for a while.

After resting for ten minutes, they started working. The first task: What place is this?

Lin Meng pointed to a wall with an entrance; the three moved towards it. Lin Wu stuck his head in to check; it was an upward staircase with a door in the middle that could be opened by a code, fingerprint, or other methods. There were about a dozen zombies on the other side of the door, presumably people who had tried to escape to the parking lot and were trapped midway.

Chased by zombies in the staircase scene, they could only go up and not down because zombies could jump downwards. As long as they didn’t land head-first, even if paralyzed from the chest down, they could still crawl using their arms.

"Force open cars." Cars have both supplies and information. However, cars with invisible keyholes couldn’t be chosen, meaning the more advanced cars, otherwise, it would trigger a car alarm.

However, there was another scenario, which Lin Wu and the others encountered, with a zombie inside a car. The car door wasn’t locked; pulling open the door caused the driver to lunge at everyone, but its body was firmly buckled by the seatbelt. Xiao Wu, quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed the zombie’s head, and Lin Wu drove a dagger into its soul.

Lin Wu looted the corpse, actually looting the corpse, not just circling around. Xiao Wu felt nauseous watching but couldn’t show it, especially since Lin Meng next to him wasn’t affected at all, and he, being a big man, definitely couldn’t show timidity.

Lin Wu handed over the driver’s license, Xiao Wu read, this person is called Sen Sen, the address on the license is Block 701, Air District 12. There were quite a few paper bills in the wallet, two coins, and a family photo.

Lin Meng reached over from the co-driver’s seat and grabbed an ID tag, saying, "Sen Sen, Business Manager, Unlimited Senior Care Products Company, company address is 31st Floor, Galaxy Building. There’s also an elevator card for the 31st floor." The 31st floor might house one or several companies, agreeing on a card-swiping system. Thus, only those with elevator cards could press for the 31st floor in the elevator.

Lin Wu looked around: "Is this the Galaxy Building?"

"I don’t know." Anyway, it doesn’t seem like an underground parking lot of a residential district.

"If it is, I’ll strangle Shana."

"Why?"

"She told me there’s an intercom on the negative first floor." Many sections were cut out by walls in the parking lot, each section not small at all. There could be numerous places to hide an intercom. Lin Wu said, "The Galaxy Building has the Galaxy Hotel, let’s look for signs of the Galaxy Hotel and get moving."

Xiao Wu said, "Walking in wet clothes will give us a cold."

Xiao Wu suggested, "Let’s clear the scattered zombies nearby, then start the car to blow warm air and try to dry the clothes a bit."

Lin Wu said, "That’s too time-consuming. Let’s figure out the situation first, it’s 4:30 AM now, if we don’t have useful information or a way to reach the Galaxy Building by 6 AM, then we’ll set up camp. Now let’s look for information while finding a reliable car to serve as our temporary base."

Xiao Wu agreed, "Good, our shoes are wet, be careful of slipping." After the shoes were soaked, the soles felt mossy, making every step squishy and uncomfortable. Yet, they couldn’t risk taking them off and stepping on harmful objects, so they had to carefully make each step count.

After walking more than thirty meters, they finally saw a sign, turn right for the exit, left for the Grand Tycoon, and forward for the Cinema. Grand Tycoon is an upgraded version of the game hall, where you buy game coins to play games and earn points to exchange for gifts.

Lin Meng and Lin Wu looked at Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu shook his head: "I’ve never been here." He didn’t know which building Grand Tycoon was in.

Xiao Wu said, "There should be buildings above us, probably office buildings. I’ve heard that Grand Tycoon is a playground opened for white-collar workers to relieve their stress. When upset by the boss, go to the game hall, put the boss’s photo on the boxing strength tester, and after a crazy output, feel refreshed mentally and physically. You can also put the boss’s photo on the dartboard."
