my doomsday wish list

Chapter 141 The Abacus Clinks

The Raptor off-road vehicle is driving in an uninhabited alley.

Lixiu was sitting in the back seat of the car, with traces of pear blossoms and rain on her face, as if she was still in the midst of the sad incident just now.

In fact, what she was thinking about was the bug.

The white-robed nun's trip has ended tonight and she has to find an opportunity to steal the bug before returning to the church.

If she was discovered, it would be difficult for her to get away with it.

Moreover, in the room, Zheng Xun made it clear that she should find a way to leave the church as soon as possible. If she stayed for a long time, it would inevitably lead to complications.

As for the truth behind the church's miracles, he said the truth will soon come to light.

Lixiu didn't quite understand what she heard, but Zheng Xun's solemn assurance gave her reassurance.

Think of this.

Lixiu began to sob muffledly, with a soft and lovely face, flushed red, and a pair of watery, hazy tearful eyes. Her pitiful appearance made people feel loved.

Seeing this, the white-robed nun had no choice but to move closer to protect her.

Lixiu leaned on the white-robed nun's arms, secretly frightened. She could clearly feel that the other person's mind was big enough to accommodate all things.

She seemed to be greatly comforted. She gently hugged the nun in white robe with her hands, and her delicate fingertips slid to the folds of the white robe, trying to pinch out the bug that had been put in before.

Suddenly, she found that the bug could not be found.

Where did the bug go?

Oops, it didn’t fall outside, did it?
Or was it discovered by the other party?

Lixiu was uneasy and wanted to fumble for a while, but the white-robed nun held her shoulders and opened some distance.

The white-robed nun looked at her with a peaceful face and comforted her softly: "I have suffered."

Lixiu's eyes were filled with tears and she shook her head.

To be honest, it's not bitter at all, just a little painful.

In addition, it was quite enjoyable, thanks to Zheng Xun covering her mouth, otherwise she would have been worried about crying out.

Although she thought so, the aggrieved expression on her face was very real.

"I don't have the shame to stay in the church anymore. I'm sorry that I failed to live up to the church's cultivation of me."

Xu Zhenshan glanced at her quietly and heard that she wanted to run away.

But this is normal. Even after losing his body and bones, after joining the religion, there is almost no possibility of further progress, so it is better to quit as soon as possible.

She didn't want to get involved in these meaningless struggles. In the apocalypse, having a safe place to live was more important than anything else.

As long as you can serve someone who stutters, let alone serve one sculpture, even if you serve ten, you will still make money.

The white-robed nun gently stroked her hair, wiped away her tears, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, you are dedicated to the Lord, and the Lord will not blame you. This shows your loyalty."

Lixiu: "???"

She was stunned.

I originally thought that the white-robed nuns would agree with her statement and kick her out of the church.

The resources of the church are not obtained out of thin air, and every nun must be carefully selected.

Once the number of nuns increases, they will soon be left empty-handed, and the leader will also be hungry when he comes.

Therefore, the church has always been merciless towards unqualified nuns.

But it is also very difficult for a qualified nun to leave the church.

Therefore, this is the best excuse and opportunity for Lixiu to leave the church.

But the white-robed nun actually took the initiative to persuade her to stay, which disturbed Lixiu's position.

The bug hasn't been found, and I still can't escape. It feels like things are starting to get a little out of control.

"But I am already an unclean person." Lixiu still wanted to defend herself.

However, the white-robed nun gently blocked her mouth with her index finger and advised: "Don't worry, the Lord will not give up any of his followers."

"We're here." Zhuxuan stepped on the brake and stopped at the back door of the church, "Remember the reward you promised."

Lixiu glanced out the window and realized that she had unknowingly returned to the church.

Seeing the firm look in the white-robed nun's eyes, he had no intention of letting her go, so he could only follow the white-robed nun out of the car.

The white-robed nun came to the back door, picked up the knocker, and knocked rhythmically.

After a while, the back door of the church opened, and several nuns in black robes came out carrying boxes of supplies.

Zhuxuan got out of the car and finished counting. After confirming that there were many supplies, he lifted all the boxes into the trunk.

"It's a near miss this time." She closed the trunk and said, "Happy cooperation!"

The white-robed nun nodded slightly and watched Zhuxuan get into the car and drive off-road in the Raptor.

In the private house, Zheng Xun took off the monitor in his ear and got a lot of information from this conversation.

"It seems that things have been a little uneven recently."

Tonight, many answers emerged.

In the meantime, there are more answers waiting to be discovered.

What he didn't expect was that the person the white-robed nun saw would be Speaker Lin from the city hall shelter.

Although he had only met Chairman Lin once, his unique voice was unmistakable.

When he speaks, he speaks warmly, neither urgently nor slowly, with a full official tone.

The white-robed nun traveled late at night to an abandoned construction site and secretly met with Chairman Lin just for one thing.

Transfer Church Miracles.

The white-robed nuns proposed that the Church's miracles be moved to official sanctuaries.

In exchange, Speaker Lin allowed church personnel to go to the shelter to preach and recruit female survivors of the shelter to become nuns.

Zheng Xun thinks the church's move is good. There are indeed many high-quality girls in the shelter who have the potential to become nuns.

Unlike the girls who wandered in the wild, most of them did not meet the recruitment requirements.

After all, those beautiful things might have been robbed by survivors in the wild before they even reached the door of the church.

The true purpose of the church may be far more than preaching.

Now that the scope of the miracle has shrunk, the wild survivors around the parasitic church are watching with eager eyes.

Judging from tonight's tracking, the wild survivors can't wait to get started.

Only by transferring the miracles can the church divert the conflict and allow the zombies to reoccupy the area around the church and force away the nearby wild survivors.

Although this will result in loss of protection, the miracles are getting weaker day by day, and it is only a matter of time before it reaches this point.

It would be better to use the miracle while it still has its final effect to lure away these wild survivors and protect the church itself.

Speaker Lin readily agreed to the white-robed nun's proposal.

Zheng Xun also had a rough guess about Lao Lintou's abacus.

The shelter needs such a miracle, and letting the church abduct a few girls is not a loss.

The shelter lacked everything except girls.

To this day, there are still a steady stream of survivors fleeing here from other places.

The two parties reached a preliminary cooperation intention and agreed on a time limit for the transfer of miracles.

At the same time, the church will send a group of nuns to the sanctuary to conduct missionary missions and recruit new nuns.

"You have reached an agreement to cooperate, but you have not yet obtained my consent."

At this time, Zheng Xun heard the knock on the door, walked over to open the door, and found Zhuxuan standing outside the door.

Zhuxuan pointed outside and said, "Let's go, the car is downstairs, and the zombies have almost dispersed." Zheng Xun smiled and said, "Thank you for remembering to come back."

Zhuxuan said disdainfully: "I'm not like some people who leave without seeing anyone for several days."

The two of them walked downstairs.

It was already dark outside the window, and there were almost no zombies in the alley. There were only a few pools of bones and blood on the ground.

Zhuxuan got on the car first and urged: "Get in the car."

Zheng Xun opened the passenger door and got in.

"Where are you going?" Zhuxuan asked, taking out the gun from his inner pocket and handing it to him, "Give it back to you."

"Auto repair shop." Zheng Xun took the gun, put it back into his tactical belt and tied it up.

Zhuxuan looked at him strangely and asked in disbelief: "Why, you are so kind-hearted that you are willing to let me go?"

Zheng Xun said, "It's okay if you want to stay with me for two more days."

Zhuxuan shook his head quickly and said, "No, we are not the same person."

"Boss Cui promised to help me repair the car in exchange for your freedom. Otherwise, you would have been able to get away so easily. You are lucky," Zheng Xun said.

When Cui Jenny was mentioned, Zhuxuan’s face visibly darkened.

"I have to ask you something. No kidding, please keep that secret for me. I never wanted to deceive her, really."

Zheng Xun waved his hand and said, "You just know these words yourself. There is no need to tell me. After you complete the transaction, I will naturally keep it a secret for you."

Zhuxuan nodded slightly, his face softened a little, and even his voice was not as repellent as before.

"It seems like I didn't ask anything today."

"And your informant was forced to stay in the church and couldn't escape."

"But it doesn't matter. The white-robed nun has forgiven her, which means the church can continue to accept your informant."

"It's okay, she will protect herself." Zheng Xun gave Li Xiu a pistol to avoid unexpected situations.

"You are not going into the church to investigate the case, are you? Now that the scope of miracles has been narrowed, there must be a lot of trouble in the church." Zhuxuan asked.

She remembered that the so-called informant seemed to be the policewoman who followed Zheng Xun at the beginning. She just changed her clothes and it was too dark, so she couldn't remember it for a while.

Are you investigating the weight-lifting bank fraud? Zheng Xun changed the subject and said, "The scope of miracles has shrunk, and it's not just the church that's in trouble, such as Boss Cui's car repair shop."

Zhuxuan frowned, said nothing more, and drove straight to the garage.

The depot is full of busy people, with workers working overtime day and night to build fortifications.

The fortifications are progressing very quickly. The gate that was open last time has now been erected with a sliding iron gate.

Zhuxuan took the initiative to stick his head out and say hello to the familiar workers.

"Uncle Li, you are still busy at this late hour. Please open the door for me and ask for Boss Cui."

"Oh, it's Zhuxuan who's back, come in." The worker, Uncle Li, happily opened the door to welcome her back.

The Raptor SUV drove into the enclosure and stopped in an open space, and the two people immediately got out of the car.

Soon.

A beautiful figure walked over from not far away, it was Cui Jenny.

She walked up to Zhuxuan, looked him up and down, and after confirming that everything was safe and normal, she teased.

"Hey, you've had enough fun outside, are you willing to come back?"

"I told you to go to the police station and steal something! You were caught by the real owner."

"Let's see if you dare to take random orders in the future."

Zhuxuan smiled and said, "Why, the police chief sent me back in person, which means I have been acquitted."

Cui Jenny said angrily: "Go aside, if it weren't for Chief Zheng's kindness and ability, you would still be alive and standing here talking nonsense today."

With that said, he raised his index finger and poked Zhuxuan's forehead, then walked up to Zheng Xun and stretched out his right hand.

"Chief Zheng, regarding Zhuxuan's matter, I'm going to trouble you this time."

"If you don't mind, we can be friends."

"Well, let's take a look at the car first." Zheng Xun held her hand, soft but strong.

The three of them walked into the car maintenance workshop together and came to maintenance station No. [-].

A military Humvee is standing on the workstation, and two maintenance workers are welding and modifying it.

Cui Jenny introduced: "Thanks to the materials you transported back last time, the modification completion should be about [-]%."

Zheng Xun nodded. Being able to modify it to [-]% of what was planned in the last drawing was already considered a pretty good level. After all, part of it was made of replacement materials.

"How long does it take to complete the changes?"

Cui Jenny made an estimate and replied: "About a week."

"Then you have to speed up the time." Zheng Xun reminded.

According to the transaction period between the shelter and the church, it was within a week.

By then, the miracle will be transferred and the zombies will reoccupy the area. Boss Cui may not have the energy to repair the car.

"I will do it as soon as possible." Cui Jenny said firmly.

Seeing the tired look on her face, Zhuxuan asked with concern: "Have you not rested for several days? Go and have a rest. I will come to see the factory."

Cui Jenny was indeed very tired. She had been working hard for several days and had not had a good night's sleep.

Zhuxuan sent Cui Jenny away, turned to look at Zheng Xun, and asked: "What are your plans next? Have you considered staying at the car factory?"

"Just take care of yourself." Zheng Xun glanced at her, "It's not peaceful recently."

After saying that, he left the depot and decided to return to Kington Manor temporarily to make some preparations in advance.

In Zheng Xun's view, by transferring the miracles to the sanctuary, the church was both saving itself and playing with fire.

Play well, and others will be burned.

If you don't play well, you will be burned.

As for the official shelter, Lao Lintou made the stupidest decision regardless of other people's thoughts.

None of these zombies with special abilities are easy to mess with.

Putting it in a shelter is no different than raising tigers to cause trouble.

And this one is obviously more terrifying than the ordinary strange species.

There are many people in the shelter, but if something goes wrong.

The shelter that Lu Yunrui had worked so hard to build was about to become a zombie den.

For Zheng Xun, it was acceptable for one or two girls to turn into beautiful zombie girls, but if they all turned into zombies, it would be more of a loss than a gain.

Although zombies are fun, we must also pay attention to the problem of aggravation of zombie aura, which needs to be balanced by popularity.

One question that deserves Zheng Xun's attention is how could Chairman Lin suspect that the church's miracle was a zombie.

At the end of their conversation, Speaker Lin asked the white-robed nun if the church's miracle was a zombie.

The white-robed nun didn't answer, which was equivalent to acquiescence.

"Old Lintou knows more than he thought."

"I'm afraid he wants to get this strange species not entirely for the safety of the shelter."

"No matter what purpose Old Lintou has, the strange species cannot be transported into the shelter."

"It's better to get rid of this old Lintou as soon as possible, otherwise the good shelter will be ruined by him."

　None tonight.
