Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 462: Dealing with the Intransigent

"Thank you, Mom!"

Jhiang Yuan felt much comforted and leaned her head on Qin Yue’s shoulder.

"I’m really happy, after going through so much, that our family can still be together."

Qin Yue sighed, memories of the past flooding her mind.

So many had perished in these great disasters.

Very few had survived to this day.

Jhiang Yuan’s sighs were not without cause.

In her previous life, she had never seen her parents before she died.

They must have encountered misfortune on their travels.

In this life, she came back earlier and brought her elderly parents over.

No matter what problems she faced, she was no longer alone.

Plus, they could help her take care of Xiao Nuan, leaving her without worries for the future.

She truly cherished her current life; despite the dangers ahead, the presence of her family was a form of happiness.

At night, Song Yi returned, but it was late, and he didn’t want to disturb her rest, so he didn’t come over.

Early the next morning, as soon as she got up, he came knocking at her door.

The elderly couple’s attitude toward their future son-in-law had improved quite a bit, almost excessively warm.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Auntie, we’re going to eat at the cafeteria later."

"Okay, that works too."

"Is there something going on?"

"Yeah, today we’ll probably have to deal with the rest of those people."

"What do you mean?"

Song Yi nodded, not spelling it out, but everyone understood what he meant.

Elder Feng brought over some special medicine, but it wasn’t very effective.

For the severely affected group, it was still not enough.

So that group chose to wait for death.

Each day lived was a day gained.

Now, the base could probably spare the manpower.

"Alright, wait for me, I’ll go with you."

"Okay!"

After explaining everything, Jhiang Yuan sent her parents and the two kids into the space.

She always felt that things weren’t so simple; sending them in allowed her to be more at ease.

Plus, there was food and drink inside.

Outside, if she couldn’t return by noon, she’d have to eat at the cafeteria.

It wasn’t necessarily safe on the streets; better to be on the safe side.

"Why don’t we go and get Mianmian as well?"

Jhiang Yuan had reached the staircase when she suggested this.

"Let’s not bother them; they just got married yesterday and must be tired.

Whether they’ve woken up yet or not is another matter."

Ah, what a suggestive remark.

She didn’t insist, preferring not to continue on this topic.

The two of them went quickly to the cafeteria to eat.

Then they went to see Camp Commander Xie; this matter had to be handled with the main force.

If she hadn’t guessed wrong, it was probably the result of last night’s discussion.

At nine o’clock, many people had gathered, and they all set off.

Jhiang Yuan followed at the back; she and Song Yi were outsiders and couldn’t be too conspicuous.

"The people are here, the people are here."

Someone inside shouted, followed by a flurry of activity.

"You’ve finally come. You didn’t bring us food yesterday. In broad daylight, you want to starve us to death!"

The complainer was clearly very dissatisfied.

However, they were weak and couldn’t make much noise.

"Who provided your food? Don’t forget that now.

Since you refuse to harvest worms, you’re headed for death sooner or later, so why waste food?."

Upon hearing Camp Commander Xie’s words, that person immediately became indignant.

"You – you’re treating human lives like grass! I’m going to report you."

Camp Commander Xie didn’t even bother to acknowledge, he simply made a hand gesture.

A group of people in protective suits filed in one by one.

Immediately after, curses and shouts erupted from within.

"Song Yi, what material is that protective suit made of? Those bugs can burrow into a lot of things.

Is it safe?"

If those people die, they die, but if they bring the bugs out and get others involved, that would be a terrible loss.

"No problem, the suits are coated with alcohol on the outside, the bugs won’t dare come close."

Oh, that’s the case, then it’s settled.

Shortly after, quite a few people came out.

They were forcefully brought out, and upon reaching the door, they were thrown onto the ground.

It was indeed very rough; these people probably hadn’t realized the danger yet.

Don’t they understand an iron-fisted approach? It’s reached the point of endangering others.

Should we pamper everyone with food and drink, wait for the bugs to emerge, and then add to everyone’s burden? That’s delusional.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and give us something to eat, let us continue as before.

Otherwise, this won’t be the end of it."

As he spoke, the leader actually struggled to stand up.

"Don’t move!"

That settled it, the circle of people around them all raised their guns at them.

"Look here, leader, this is no fun.

We, this group of people, only have a few days left to live; don’t you think you’re being a bit inhumane?"

Still, there was a look of fearless confidence on his face.

I’m speechless, how can they be so unaware of the catastrophe that’s upon them!

"I’ve been tolerating you for a long time already, disregarding everyone’s safety for your own selfish interests.

You’re right, you don’t have many days left, so let’s just end it today, save on the food."

With that said by Camp Commander Xie, those people got scared.

"What do you mean? Are you planning to kill us? Do you have the guts?"

"Whether I do or not, let’s give it a try and see."

As he said this, everyone raised their guns, aiming at the people in the center.

"Don’t! If you do this, I’ll release the bugs right now, we’ll all go down together."

Look, even in the end, this group of people thought of using such extreme measures.

"Hmph, I originally thought to let you die with some dignity, but now it seems unnecessary."

As Camp Commander Xie spoke, he waved his hand.

With bullets chambered, gunfire followed immediately.

The people didn’t get the chance to speak before they fell down, their eyes filled with disbelief.

At such close range, Jhiang Yuan was startled, too.

Then, someone brought over firewood.

They poured oil and ignited it, all in one swift motion.

Song Yi explained to her on the side.

"Under the current situation, we can’t take them to the back anymore.

If something goes wrong in the middle of that, it would be troublesome.

Once the body dies and blood stops circulating, the bugs react.

If because of this, they start burrowing out from the body, those who will suffer are the living."

Jhiang Yuan nodded, indicating she understood.

The flames had wholly engulfed them now, and the air was filled with the smell of charred flesh.

It mixed with the stench of exploding bugs, making it extremely foul.

"Let’s go, it’s all over."

"Alright!"

Jhiang Yuan didn’t say much and followed Song Yi.

This kind of scene was not what she wanted to witness.

Anyway, everything was over.

"As long as everyone pays more attention, the situation will get better."

Now, all potential bug threats had been contained.

Not to mention these people, there shouldn’t be any issues with them anymore.

There are inspections every day, and in other places, there are people surveying daily as well.

At least, there won’t be any large-scale problems.
