#18 - Chapter 18 Got it!
Chapter 18: Acquired!
The perspective returns to Qin Jin's side.
Third floor of the police station.
Qin Jin cautiously led his team, and luckily, they didn't encounter any danger.
After being cleansed by two consecutive days of fog, it was clear that no survivors remained.
The zombies also seemed to have been attracted away earlier, as they didn't encounter any along the way, and smoothly arrived at the third floor of the police station.
According to the information he collected before the apocalypse, police stations in Blue Star generally keep firearms and ammunition on higher floors.
Lower floors are usually used to hold prisoners and receive the public, while the second floor houses police offices and meeting rooms.
Of course, this is just for small-scale police stations.
Some large-scale stations also have shooting ranges, small prisons, training grounds, and so on.
Today's first target was here, and it was also planned by him; he had scouted it out before the apocalypse.
He felt this was normal, right!?
He had been reborn; how could he not even make a plan for such a small matter!?
Knowing that he needed to find guns in the apocalypse, wouldn't it be a simple matter to choose a place to go in advance!?
Basic operation, don't freak out.
He remembered when he entered this station, the gatekeeper was very kind, and the reception staff was also very enthusiastic.
Although he didn't see the firearms and ammunition depot at the time, he could easily figure out where the weapons depot was through terrain building simulation, personnel post simulation, and consulting with money online, right!?
Arriving on the third floor, there was a long corridor.
Looking around, there were many rooms, most of the doors were open, and a small number of doors were closed, it was unknown whether they were locked or not.
The combat team followed Qin Jin slowly, carefully visually inspecting the rooms one by one.
If they could tell at a glance that it wasn't the target, they would skip to the next one.
After walking through most of the rooms, they still hadn't found the target.
A locked door was kicked open by Qin Jin, but it was just a simple room that no one had locked.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little anxious in their hearts; the first strike seemed a bit unfavorable.
Suddenly, Qin Jin's gaze was attracted to a room they had just walked to.
This room was still a mess, with bloodstains everywhere, and overturned files scattered all over the place.
There was also a large pool of blood on the ground, as if someone had drained their body of blood here, soaking a large area.
His gaze locked onto a pile of tattered clothes in the corner of the bloodstains, and after confirming that there was no danger in the room, he quickly walked over.
Using a crossbow bolt to pick up the clothes, he found a handgun that was mostly covered!!
He had just seen the part that looked like a gunstock!
Finally found one!
Qin Jin didn't mind that the handgun was covered in bloodstains, he picked up the clothes on the ground and simply wiped the handgun on the clean part, confirming that it was a common Type 64, and there were still three bullets inside!
The corners of his mouth slightly curved up, and his eyebrows relaxed.
Finally, it was a bit of a good start.
The owner of this gun may have been resisting zombies before he died, but he was pounced on before he could finish all the bullets and had no chance to fire them.
He instructed the team members to continue searching the room again.
Sure enough, they found another magazine under the table, with 7 bullets inside!
Without hesitation, he hung the gun on his waist, walked out of the room, and continued searching other places, while signaling the team members to follow.
None of the team members said anything; wasn't it a matter of course for the boss to take the first gun they found?
—————
The Li Bowen team was also searching on the first floor.
There were relatively fewer rooms on the first floor here.
In addition to the reception hall, there was a dining hall and some detention rooms for temporarily detaining criminal suspects.
Fortunately, when the Li Bowen team searched an interrogation room, they found a deceased person's handgun inside in the same way as Qin Jin.
Including the spare magazine, there were a total of 17 bullets!
Li Bowen took it first.
They were all veterans and were not unfamiliar with handguns; they could use them as soon as they got them.
However, unless necessary, it's best not to use handguns, after all, the sound is too loud, and it would be bad to attract trouble.
Speaking of Li Bowen.
He didn't have the idea of taking people out to establish his own business after owning a handgun, or finding an opportunity to kill Qin Jin and become king himself.
It's not that he was stupid; on the contrary, he was very self-aware.
He knew that Qin Jin had recently been strengthening his control over the base, and even arranged for their relatives and friends to stay in the base while taking them out to work for him.
He felt this was normal.
From the time Qin Jin found them a few months ago and gave them work, he had deliberately distinguished the relationship between superiors and subordinates.
The previous comradeship was still there, but it was no longer pure.
He had also chatted with Zhang Tiankai, Chen Junchi, and Liu Wenhao in private, and they all felt that Qin Jin was someone who would do great things.
In the past few months, Qin Jin gave people the feeling of being decisive and efficient, and things that were ordered had to be handled well.
There was also the kind of baleful aura that he revealed from time to time; he wasn't sure if it was called baleful aura, but it would make people feel goosebumps and chills.
Occasionally, when he was rude to people, his indifferent eyes seemed to be looking at others like a corpse; they felt that it was the aura of a superior.
They all felt that as long as President Qin didn't break the law and get caught, he would eventually achieve great things.
Although they didn't know what the previous comrades had experienced to become like this, and even possessed so much money to open companies and factories.
But finding them and giving them a well-paid job was undeniable.
Since he was working with such a strong man, why not?
They guessed that Qin Jin hadn't completely left the team at the time, but had instead joined a mysterious special forces unit.
He had fought bloody battles in war-torn areas abroad for several years and became a soldier king, and then returned to the city for various reasons to live a retired life.
The imagination was quite amazing.
If Qin Jin knew, he would give them a thumbs up.
As a result, the apocalypse soon came, and the zombie mutation broke out.
That night at the venue, President Qin once again demonstrated extraordinary action and control.
Afterward, he also arranged the entire base in an orderly manner, and everyone had their own new responsibilities, revolving around a new goal—to survive in this new era.
That feeling was like a natural-born overlord.
Li Bowen asked himself, if he were to arrange it, he estimated that he might not even be able to achieve one-tenth of Qin Jin's effect!?
It wasn't just him who thought so; many others in the combat team thought the same.
They could fully imagine what the situation of other survivors outside was like; if they put themselves in their shoes, what would they do?
It must be despair.
Compared to the despair on the internet, they felt they were lucky.
At least now they had food to eat, a safe place to live, and their relatives were by their side, jointly building a safer base.
A kind of willing submission was growing in the hearts of most people.
There was nothing wrong with surrendering to the strong.
Moreover, when this strong man was kind to them, they were even more sincere and happy.
If someone now said they wanted to harm President Qin or do something detrimental to the base, they would jump out and solve the person who caused the problem.
Because they had truly regarded themselves as a member of the base.
Whoever harmed the base harmed them.
It wasn't that the end of the world had transformed them like this in three days; it was months of subtle influence.
At least most of the people building walls at the base now were definitely not.
There were not a few who complained about the boss, and Qin Jin didn't force them to change; he only needed to have his own core strength, and then continue to develop and grow in the future.
Qin Jin himself wasn't quite clear that some of his usual expressions and actions had these influences.
He was just doing things according to his own heart, although he had more experience from living for several years in his previous life, and he hadn't killed many people, only about a hundred or eighty.
Many things had become his subconscious, and he didn't know that they were playing a powerful role.
His aura and subconscious movements had already taken the shape of an overlord.
How will it develop in the future?
Who knows?
—————————————
Qin Jin on the third floor continued to search other rooms after finding the handgun.
Unfortunately, there were no other gains, and now there was only one room left.
The room at the end of the corridor.
Standing in front of this room, he carefully looked at the large iron door.
Due to the erosion of time, it looked slightly dilapidated, and some mottled rust appeared in several corners.
Compared to other doors that had signs, this door had nothing.
Whatever was inside, he had to open it.
He took out a wire from his pocket and skillfully picked the lock.
This type of lock was a relatively old model.
There was no need to doubt Qin Jin's lock-picking skills; which survivors who survived in their previous lives didn't have a few lock-picking skills?
Forced lock-picking and skillful lock-picking were essential skills; otherwise, what would they do if they encountered places that couldn't be opened when searching for supplies?
It was absolutely impossible to let go of food.
In less than a minute, with a click, the door was breached.
All the team members tightened their nerves, and Qin Jin in the front gently pushed open the door——
Roar——
A zombie wearing a police uniform pounced from behind the door!
Having expected it, Qin Jin stepped aside and kicked the zombie in the side, causing it to fall to the ground.
Then he raised his hand crossbow and shot an arrow at its head! Directly piercing into the eye socket!
Immediately, the zombie lost its ability to move and lay on the ground, no longer moving.
This small situation was no pressure for him.
He signaled the team members behind him to add a few more knives to the zombie's neck to make sure it wouldn't revive.
He slowly walked into this locked area, and what came into view was a small cubicle.
There were several small doors inside, and the names of various guns were clearly written on the doors!
Finally found it!!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he quickly came to a door and turned the handle.
It was not locked again inside, and at a glance, the space inside was small, but the walls were hung with his planned targets—handguns and machine guns!!
The team members successively opened other small doors, which also contained different weapons.
Everyone became excited; no one could be indifferent to this kind of big toy that men always yearn for.
Qin Jin told everyone to quickly collect the weapons.
There was no time to waste here; nearly twenty minutes had passed since entering the police station, and who knew what would happen later.
He watched the team members find bags for guns from behind and nearby in the room, and silently counted in his heart: 4 carbines, 3 870 shotguns, not many, and other things such as grenades, flashbangs, tear gas grenades, and the main thing was that there were several boxes of bullets, estimated to be thousands of rounds!!
This first wave was a bloody profit!
The big stone that had been pressing in his heart instantly felt shattered for the most part, and the weapons that were indispensable in the apocalypse were finally obtained!!
But he couldn't relax; the apocalypse had just begun.
There were more challenges waiting in the future, and he had to infinitely increase his own strength to be qualified to face a more difficult future.
