After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238: Chapter 238: Internal Injury from Frustration

When Holden Shaw and the others saw Nina Jacobs coming to find them, they seemed to be in a good mood.

"We’ve already killed all the zombies in this area,

if we wait a bit longer, another wave should show up."

Chase Gallagher said.

Wayne Abbott and his group were also resting off to the side, their clothes soaked with sweat, but none of them had any complaints.

"Let’s head back. We’re done for today."

Nina Jacobs had Wayne Warner bring down a case of water from the car and gave it to everyone.

It was already a little after 5:00 PM. Although it wasn’t dark yet, it wasn’t early either.

After drinking the water Nina Jacobs gave them, everyone felt as if they’d been brought back to life.

"So refreshing!"

Warren Ramsey let out a hearty laugh.

The others laughed too. It had been a long time since they’d been out killing zombies.

"Actually, two groups of people came looking for trouble today,

but yours truly chased them all away."

Leo Hale said smugly.

"We really have to thank Hale. In the past, either our car would get wrecked, or we’d get caught up in the zombie waves they lured over,

so we could never get many Crystal Cores."

Wayne Abbott said.

"That won’t happen anymore. You can all focus on killing zombies without worry."

Nina Jacobs knew this was most likely because those people recognized Leo Hale.

Daniel Hale currently held an important position in the base, so naturally, no one dared to offend Leo Hale.

But just as everyone was about to get in their cars and leave, several vehicles pulled up beside them.

"It’s Hugo Crawford."

Eleanor and the others had an almost conditioned reflex, immediately assuming a defensive stance upon seeing them.

"Ignore them."

Nina Jacobs said.

At that moment, Hugo Crawford had already stepped out of his car.

"Miss Jacobs, it’s been a while."

Hugo Crawford looked at Nina Jacobs with suspicion in his eyes.

From behind him, a man was shoved forward.

Upon seeing Nina Jacobs’s SUV, the man immediately said:

"That’s the car I saw! It drove down Front Road 2 this afternoon!"

Nina Jacobs raised an eyebrow.

’Front Road 2 is just one of the roads near the Brightway Products Factory.’

’Looks like no one saw them coming out of the Brightway Products Factory itself.’

"Miss Jacobs, we lost a batch of supplies today,

and someone said they saw your car passing by.

May I ask what you were doing over on Front Road 2?"

Hugo Crawford asked directly.

"Are you trying to frame me?" Nina Jacobs asked.

"..."

Hugo Crawford was momentarily at a loss for words.

If Nina Jacobs had denied it, he could have continued questioning her.

But with such a heavy accusation thrown at him, coupled with the angry glares from Wayne Abbott and his people, he suddenly didn’t know how to respond.

"Just tell us if you went there or not,

and what you were doing."

A man beside Hugo Crawford asked in an impatient tone.

But as soon as the words left his mouth, he was kicked from behind.

He reflexively dropped to his knees.

Before he could even get a clear look at who it was, two cold blades were pressed against his neck.

"Wh-what do you want?"

the man on the ground asked in terror.

"Wrong attitude. Ask again."

Behind him stood Holden Shaw, his expression chilly.

"What?"

The man didn’t understand at first.

"Your attitude when you spoke to her was wrong,

I’ll allow you to fix that tone and ask again."

The cold blades carried the foul stench of zombie blood; if they accidentally broke the skin, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hugo Crawford hadn’t expected them to just attack like that.

Moreover, he hadn’t even seen when the man made his move.

"Crawford, he’s a Speed Element Superpower User!"

Only then did Nina Jacobs slowly reply: 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
