Jack ignored Warren's request and turned around to leave this side and go back.
Warren was a typical idealist.
However, achieving ideals required strength, not just shouting slogans.
Returning to # 25, he happened to pass by William and Harold's place.
Two people were holding cigarette butts in their hands, wishing they could suck into both of their cigarette butts.
As soon as they saw Jack, the two of them walked over with pleasing expressions on their faces.
"Jack, aren't you going out today? Or did you collect all the food yesterday?"
William walked over with a smile on his face, full of enthusiasm.
Those who didn't know thought he was Jack's cousin.
"I'll go out later."
Jack smiled and said.
Harold also walked over and said with a smile, "Jack is the person who has made the greatest contribution to our community! Unlike these useless people." He pointed to the residents who were sweeping the snow. "You can't even do a good job, you know what you want to eat all day long! Hmph."
Jack smiled and said, "They don't know how to work, so why don't you teach them?"
William looked at the obedient residents he had tamed and sneered, "They're just two arms and two legs, what's wrong with them? Just beat them up and they'll be honest."
As he spoke, he playfully smiled at Jack and said, "Brother Jack, this is not used to smoking, it's too strong! Can you exchange it next time?" Harold said, "Why don't you want 555? Some cigarettes are good enough, don't add burden to Jack!" Jack smiled and said, "It's not a big problem. I'll help you search more later, and if there are, I'll bring them to you naturally. It shouldn't be difficult." "" Besides, at this time, although cigarettes are precious, there's no saying whether they are valuable or not."
"It's okay if you want me to find 555."
The three of them burst into laughter, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
"By the way, I'll show you back later. If there's any good wine, I'll bring you one or two bottles. On a cold day, drink some wine to warm up! "Jack said, and Harold and William were both excited.
Harold liked to drink alcohol the most, and William also had a good tolerance for alcohol.
It's one thing to love drinking. The key was this weather. Wine can help them warm up. It's a serious good thing!
"Jack, you are so righteous! In the past, I was the heart of a petty person and the belly of a gentleman. If you need any help from a brother in the future, feel free to greet me."
William gave Jack a thumbs up, and his heart was truly moved.
Harold glanced at him and didn't fall behind anyone. "Jack, you are our great benefactor! The kindness of saving lives cannot be repaid. I can only say that from now on, I entrust my 140 pounds to you."
Jack smiled warmly and reached out to pat their arms.
"Look at what you're saying. From now on, we're the best partners."
"Everyone is striving to survive better in the apocalypse, and only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation."
"Just let me know if you need anything! Whatever you can meet, I will definitely meet it."
After speaking, Jack reached out and pointed outside, "Then I'll go out first."
William and Harold quickly said, "You're busy, you're busy."
Jack smiled and nodded, then went to get the car and left Y Community.
Harold and William stared at Jack's distant back, their eyes becoming slightly complicated.
The two of them glanced at each other, but they were not very confrontational, so they turned their heads and left.
On the way back, William lowered his head and pondered, "Why has Jack suddenly become so good? He asked for cigarettes and even offered to bring me wine."
"Did I misunderstand him before?"
He frowned and pondered carefully.
In the past, he had no contact with Jack, let alone any conflicts.
After the apocalypse, it was he who coveted Jack's snowmobile, making it impossible for people to steal it, and then sent someone to ambush in the snow.
Later, Jack launched a counterattack against the Wolf Gang.
William slapped his forehead and said, "Oh hey! Speaking of which, it's not that he's not being unjust, it's that I did something wrong first. This Jack person is capable and can handle it."
His mouth gradually revealed a cruel smile.
"I just like kind-hearted people."
On the other hand, Harold was also contemplating Jack's attitude change.
"Why did he suddenly show goodwill towards me? To be honest, with his strength, he shouldn't be afraid of me."
"In that case, he probably genuinely wants peace and doesn't want to continue fighting. After all, he's alone, and his subordinates don't have the same heart as him."
"If he continues to fight, he might die someday. So he's scared."
After pondering for a while, Harold thought he understood Jack's attitude change.
He couldn't help but show a hint of smug smile on his face.
"This is good news."
After Jack came out, he went to the library again.
The book 'Norwegian Wood' was very interesting, and the faint sadness that lingered in Haruki Murakami's works can be regarded as a representative of the mourning culture after the cherry blossom war. Jack leisurely finished reading the entire book, gently closed it, and stuffed it back onto the bookshelf.
It's not that he's being sentimental, but he rarely read books on impulse and might not have such thoughts in the future. There's no need to move the library back and store it in a different space to eat dust.
Jack belonged to the type of person who wanted to buy any book when he went to the bookstore, but loses interest once he brought it home.
He lifted his wrist and flipped the Rolex watch out of his sleeve.
It's already four o'clock in the afternoon, as usual he should go collect some food and bring it back to the community.
Jack whispered softly, "I don't know when those guys will be hit! I must slowly lower their guard and find the right opportunity to take action."
Jack left the library, went to the supermarket to collect the corresponding amount of supplies, and then rode a snowmobile back to the community.
Among the people who came to collect supplies today, there were several building managers.
William and Harold were both among the crowd, looking eagerly at the snake skin pocket next to Jack's feet.
Their goal was naturally the cigarettes and wine Jack promised to bring back to them.
The reason why they came to pick it up in person was to swallow it alone.
Otherwise, these rare and valuable things can easily cause conflicts between them and their subordinates.
William and Harold both had a deep understanding that when they received the cigarettes yesterday, their subordinates were a bit overwhelmed.
And when Jack saw them personally come to pick up the food, a faint smile couldn't be traced from the corner of her mouth.
"Okay, everyone, line up in order and come over to collect the food one by one."
When the manager of Building 1 walked over, he suddenly whispered to Jack, "Jack, you can bring cigarettes for William and Harold. Can you also help us bring them?"
