Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

"Squeak~!"

There was a sharp and long sound of metal friction, and the side door of the barracks in the 9-004 refugee camp was opened.

A middle-aged man of medium build, about 1.7 meters tall, hunched over, hesitated at the door for a moment before slowly walking in.

As he walked, he was still muttering to himself: "After delivering this last batch today, I can finally have a day off. It's so unlucky. I have to deal with piles of dead bodies every day. I don't know when I can go into the city..."

He was wearing a blue training uniform that seemed a little too big. The epaulettes on both shoulders went beyond his shoulders and drooped down. There were special patterns printed on the epaulettes.

There was no light in the barracks and he was facing the sun, so he could only see a rough outline.

Xu Sansan was awakened by the harsh sound of the door opening. She had actually been silently sizing up the middle-aged man for a while, but unfortunately she could only see his careless and slow movements, but could not hear clearly what he was mumbling to himself...

As soon as he entered the room, he began to use the square instrument in his hand to scan the people lying on the ground one by one. The instrument kept making a "beep, beep, beep" sound.

As the man swept, he kicked the person lying on the ground from time to time, as if he was deliberately venting his anger. But strangely, the person on the ground didn't react at all...

hiss!

It hurts so much!

Xu Sansan felt a silent pain in his heart. His boots looked hard and heavy. If he was kicked directly, his pitifully skinny legs would probably be crippled.

Oh my God!

It's over, it's over, it's over!

My left hand is already injured. If he kicks me again, I will definitely not survive the day...

Xu Sansan half-closed her eyes and stared at the man who was gradually walking towards her. She held the scalpel tightly in her right hand, ready to resist at any time.

When the middle-aged man finally walked up to the person lying next to her, stopped, and was about to kick her skillfully, Xu Sansan had a hunch that something was wrong. At this moment, it was too late to judge whether the man's target was herself or the unfortunate guy lying next to her.

To ensure her own safety, she stood up without hesitation, picked up the scalpel with her trembling right hand, pointed it at the man, and growled at the top of her lungs: "What are you doing! Stop right there! Believe it or not, I'm going to dissect you!"

I don’t know if it’s because he hasn’t had water for a long time, but at this moment Xu Sansan’s voice is switching back and forth between the two extremes of hoarseness and breaking.

The result was that not a single note was pronounced correctly.

The middle-aged man was so frightened by this sudden change that he collapsed to the ground. He sat on the ground and quickly moved his legs back, staring with his eyes wide open and screaming: "Zombie! Zombie!"

I don’t know if this person is just timid, but at the critical moment, he didn’t have the intelligence to escape at all.

Instead, he kept howling, and then still slumped on the ground, moving backwards step by step, his legs alternating back and forth, kicking rapidly, with a fast frequency and a loud momentum, but he did not move backwards much, it was more like he was panickingly doing the KEEP weight loss series' core abdominal exercises in the same place.

Xu Sansan was a little confused for a moment. He didn't expect that his half-baked surprise just now could have such an effect!

But that's not right, what is he shouting?

Fake corpse?

No, I wasn’t dead in the first place, so how could I have come back to life?

Xu Sansan tilted his head in confusion, curled up his knees, and prepared to stand up and explain to the middle-aged man.

Little did she know that if she didn't move, it would be fine. But when she moved, she would directly shock a lot of people.

At this moment, as luck would have it, after hearing the middle-aged man's shout, four men in the same blue training uniforms hurriedly came running from the side door. They were tall and short, but all thin, with sunken eye sockets, and one could tell at a glance that they had been staying up late for a long time.

As soon as these people entered the door, they saw a young girl wearing tattered clothes, with messy and split hair, a pale face without any blood, and a pair of big black eyes staring round under her pitch-black forehead. She was standing up unsteadily, with a bloody arm hanging, and walking towards them.

Her bloodless lips opened and closed, like a starving zombie who wanted to eat people. From time to time, she let out a hoarse growl. On the palm of her right hand, there was a sharp blade that flashed with cold light. In the already dark barracks, against the light, it looked like the claws of a mutant beast...

The four of them retreated and fell to the ground. Their movements were exactly the same and uniform.

The familiar scene was multiplied by 4 at once.

Along with screams and cries for help, Xu Sansan saw countless pairs of legs moving rapidly in front of his eyes, as if they were trying to make a Hot Wheels in the air.

Perhaps it was because he used too much force when he stood up, as soon as Xu Sansan stood up, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes.

Not good, it must be due to excessive blood loss and malnutrition, leading to anemia...

Before he could finish diagnosing himself in his mind, he stumbled and fell back to where he was.

"Hey, can you please give me a glass of water first..."

@#￥%…￥%…&%￥2#￥…&*

Well, Xu Sansan was also helpless. Her voice at the moment was indeed not very pleasant.

Adhering to the principle of "the more you talk, the more mistakes you make, and the less you say, the less you do", Xu Sansan, who originally wanted to explain as much as possible, immediately changed his strategy and decided to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.

Fortunately, there is still a smart person who is trying to bring the deviated plot back on track.

The man sitting at the outermost edge suddenly became motionless after seeing Xu Sansan fall down, so he quickly opened his bracelet and contacted Captain Wang, the captain of the guard team in Area 9 of the refugee camp.

Captain Wang arrived quickly, bringing with him about 10 guards armed with heavy weapons. He left 8 men outside to stand guard, and surrounded the side door of barracks 9-004.

He held a weapon in one hand and a long strip of detector in the other. Under the cover of several heavy firepower guard team members, he walked past the Hot Wheels group of five and slowly walked towards Xu Sansan step by step.

As he walked, the detector in his hand kept emitting mechanical prompt sounds: "Beep! No abnormalities found!"

"Ding! No abnormality found!"

"Ding! No abnormality found!"

When she walked up to Xu Sansan, the detector automatically scanned her from head to toe and issued a final confirmation:

"Ding! Human female! There is an external injury, but it is mild, not infected, and can heal itself..."

"Whoo~"

Xu Sansan could clearly feel that everyone present exhaled unconsciously.

Captain Wang finally looked at her straight in the eye and asked, "Identity information?"

Xu Sansan slowly stood up and answered in a low voice: "Xu Sansan..."

@#￥%

Well, she forgot, her voice was still not strong enough to speak, so she looked at Captain Wang helplessly, pointed at her throat, and waved her hand.

Captain Wang looked at the dishevelled girl and her bloodstained rags, and now he roughly understood why a fourteen or fifteen-year-old survivor from District 9 would cause such a big fuss...

So he scanned the bracelet on Xu Sansan's right wrist again, and heard a mechanical voice:

Xu Sansan, number, 15 years old, scavenger;

Last base mission: Cleaning up the wasteland city No. 505...

Soon the mechanical sound stopped, Captain Wang glanced at her again, then turned around and led his men away, leaving only one sentence:

"Since you are not dead yet, leave as soon as possible. District 9 does not welcome living people."
