After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Winning Goodwill

The entrance to City D Base.

It was the time of day when the scavenging teams returned, so a long line had already formed for the entry inspection at the base’s gate.

The appearance of a truck was particularly eye-catching.

No one knew who had found so many supplies, and nearly everyone looked over with gazes of envy or jealousy.

Ian Chandler had already walked out from the base.

He looked at Nina Jacobs standing by the truck and approached her with a wide smile. "Need my help?"

"Yeah, your space is huge. Help me put some of this away for now."

Nina Jacobs felt rather resigned.

Having Yvonne Willow go into the base, unload the supplies, and come back out would waste too much time.

So, she had just sent Chase Gallagher to get Ian Chandler.

"No problem. Looks like you had some good luck today."

Ian Chandler hopped right onto the truck and started putting the supplies away.

He didn’t understand why Nina Jacobs wanted him to leave some of the supplies on the truck.

His space was large enough to hold the entire truck, after all.

But he didn’t press the issue.

He put away exactly as much as Nina Jacobs told him to.

"I still think it’d be better to do this somewhere more secluded,

so many people are watching."

Warren Ramsey couldn’t help but comment from the side.

The stares from the surrounding crowd made him uncomfortable.

Wayne Abbott clapped him on the shoulder.

"I can’t figure it out either, but I’m sure she has her reasons.

She’s not like the rest of us."

What they needed to do now was adapt to Nina Jacobs’ pace and methods as quickly as possible.

Warren Ramsey felt his concern was justified.

Because, in the distance, he could already see Hugo Crawford running out of the base with a group of people.

When Hugo Crawford saw the truck, his brow creased into a deep frown.

"Nina Jacobs, what’s the meaning of this? We sent this truck out this morning."

Hugo Crawford couldn’t believe it. ’Someone is actually taking my supplies right out in the open?’

"We found it on the road."

She said it as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Nina Jacobs’s tone was perfectly flat.

’Found it on the road...’

Hugo Crawford and the men behind him never imagined Nina Jacobs would give such an answer.

"Mr. Crawford, by the time we got there, only zombies were left,"

"To keep this truck of supplies from going to waste, we had to kill a ton of them. It took a lot of effort."

Chase Gallagher deliberately explained in a loud voice from the side.

"Impossible! How could that many people all be dead?

You must have killed them for the supplies!"

Hugo Crawford finally lost his temper.

’Nina Jacobs must have done this on purpose!’

"Hugo Crawford, watch your mouth!"

"Do you have any idea how many zombies were there? All sorts of things can happen on the road. You can’t just make wild accusations like that!"

Seeing Hugo Crawford’s hostile tone, Wayne Abbott couldn’t help but retort.

Seeing the crowd that had gathered, Hugo Crawford sneered. "Unexpected situations?

We just traveled that road yesterday. There couldn’t have been a massive horde of zombies!

I say you just wanted to seize the supplies for yourselves!"

That road had been cleared by a rescue team a few days ago.

And the route was remote. Even if some zombies appeared, Rafferty Miller and his men could have handled them.

Just then, Ian Chandler emerged from the truck and nodded at Nina Jacobs.

Nina Jacobs paid Hugo Crawford no further mind, instead walking up and opening the truck’s cargo doors herself.

A considerable amount of supplies remained inside the truck. Seeing the stacks of boxes, many in the crowd cast greedy glances.

Then, Nina Jacobs announced:

"As everyone knows, it isn’t easy to get supplies these days.
