Drip-drip!
The E-Mark electric scooter is an essential means of transportation for getting around, and as long as you don't go too fast, it can be quite safe.
The small electric donkey, with its red paint job, made for a great scene against the quiet streets.
Grrr!
The only downside was the few zombies trailing behind.
Lin Fan wasn't panicking, remaining quite leisurely, occasionally turning back with a friendly smile. This smile might have been for the zombies but also for the four elderly people following in a car behind him.
The zombies were chasing him, perhaps attracted by the majestic E-Mark electric scooter, longing to touch such a divine vehicle.
Or maybe they were drawn to the domestic car driven by the old gentlemen.
After all, he had seen people so excited to see a luxury car that they would kneel on the ground and snap photos.
So, it was understandable for the zombies to want to touch both the E-Mark electric scooter and the sedan.
There was no need to unsheathe a sword and chop them up.
That would be against socialist values.
Xinfeng Real Estate.
"Boss, I'm back," he said as he parked the electric scooter to one side, speaking to the boss he had split in two, "Thank you."
He returned the keys to the electric scooter.
Intending to bring the four elderly people into the Sunshine District.
Grrr!
The roaring of the zombies could be heard.
Unexpectedly, the pursuing zombies were quite patient, and they appeared around the corner.
"Ah, why must you be so unfriendly?"
Lin Fan signaled to the four elderly people to stay in the car for the moment, sword in hand, watching the oncoming zombies.
To the zombies, his attraction was great.
They just wanted...
Eat!
Eat!
Eat!
To bite Lin Fan into pieces, let the intestines and viscera all spill out and sate their starving stomachs.
"I didn't want to do this either."
He swung his long sword, cleaving the approaching zombies in two.
Dark blood stained the ground, accompanied by various disgusting bits of flesh, painting a very ugly picture.
"Boss, sorry to dirty your doorstep."
He apologized.
He felt somewhat guilty towards the boss.
Trying to run a business only to have it made this dirty by him.
Lin Fan was somewhat troubled by the zombies' violent tendencies, knowing if he didn't fight back, he would be bitten to death.
Nine years of compulsory education taught him.
To be a model citizen.
Not to cause harm to others.
But if someone else intended to harm him, then he could defend himself.
The relevant law stated.
Article 20: An act that stops an ongoing unlawful infringement upon the public interest, oneself, or others' person, property, and other rights, causing injury to the perpetrator of the unlawful infringement, shall be considered justifiable defense and bear no criminal liability.
Defense against violent crimes that severely endanger personal safety, such as assault, murder, robbery, sexual assault, kidnapping, and others, resulting in injury or death to the perpetrator, shall not be considered excessive defense and bear no criminal liability.
When he was studying, reading this part made him understand a principle.
That is, always be a good person, and when defending yourself, if you can resolve the situation with a single blow, don't strike a second time.
Otherwise, it could very well be considered excessive defense.
"Under the current circumstances, even though I've chopped up many zombies, the criminal law of the state stands behind me, constantly telling me not to blame myself, not to be sad, that I'm doing the right thing, that I'm not wrong, that I'm defending myself."
"So, protect yourself with all your might."
Arriving at the store.
The keys to Room 804 in the community are right here.
The owner left the keys here to make it convenient for the real estate agency to show the property.
Getting the keys.
A smile bloomed on his face.
This day was fulfilling, he had done many things.
"Oh, right, I haven't paid the agent's fee yet. I'm broke right now, boss. I can only owe you for the time being. I'll pay it as soon as I've made some money."
Lin Fan didn't want to ask Li Mei for money. After all, she and her daughter had gifted him such an expensive Simulated Divine Artifact, and he felt a bit embarrassed to broach the subject.
What's the hardest debt to repay in the world?
It is the debt of gratitude. Lin Fan cared about his face; he'd rather pretend to be wealthy even when he was flat broke.
During this time, he must find something to do in order to make money properly.
He couldn't be holed up at home all day, becoming a hermit; he had to be a useful member of society.
The landlord had lived respectfully and when he left, Lin Fan nodded toward the landlord's two halves.
"See you next time."
…
Sunshine District welcomed four new residents.
The veteran Wang Zhongguo, with his rich battle experience.
The former military doctor Xu Guifen, with her exquisite medical skills.
The military expert Zhou Aijun, who had earned many medals.
The retired teacher Liang Yan, who had educated many.
In a zombie web series, if a team encountered these elders, they'd definitely be overjoyed to the point of losing their sense of direction. They are quite simply the indispensable talents for survival in an apocalypse.
They would be revered like ancestors, where even a sneeze would be met with utmost attention for fear of any serious illness.
Lin Fan directed Wang Zhong, who was driving the car, to park in the demarcated parking space within the community.
Perhaps Wang Zhong hadn't expected to park perfectly within the lines, but when Lin Fan tapped on the window and reminded him softly not to park the car outside as it would look bad, he understood.
Those four lines aren't just mere lines, but represent a principle.
Wang Zhong deeply agreed and parked the car with great skill.
He led them to his home.
"To the two elder gentlemen and two elder ladies, this is my home. I've got to go out for a bit. I've promised to help someone with a rental, and I need to bring them over."
"Do you have any particular needs for the rental home?"
Lin Fan hadn't planned on running errands for the four elders in front of him for a fee. It was unnecessary. If he could help within his power, he was more than willing to do so.
Zhou Aijun was clearly a bit puzzled.
In this apocalyptic world, there were no more real estate agencies, so how could one rent a property?
However, Wang Zhongguo smiled and said, "Young man, the four of us old people can live together; a two-bedroom apartment would suffice. The rent for houses nowadays isn't cheap, you know. This is my bank card; the PIN is 123321. Take whatever you need, and oh, don't forget to take some for yourself. Seeing you work so hard, we can't bear not giving you some compensation; it wouldn't feel right."
Seeing Wang Zhong offer the bank card.
Lin Fan found that the feeling of being trusted was truly comforting.
Who could easily hand over their bank card and PIN to someone else?
He might not have cash on him now, but he still had a bit on his phone. If it were someone else's errand, he'd definitely charge a fee. But he had no desire at all to take money from these four elders.
As he took them to leave.
The elders didn't bring much with them, just a wooden box they showed him, which contained various medals—their pride. When he saw these medals,
Lin Fan felt deeply moved.
He had no other thought but to protect the four elders within his ability and provide them with a stable life.
Arriving downstairs.
He looked at the peaceful community.
Raising his head to the sky.
This day was indeed rewarding. Although he had been busy, he was very happy.
