Deal! I’ll get them ready for you right now!” he promised, his eyes gleaming.

People nearby had been eavesdropping, and now they started crowding in. “You guys buying buckets? If we scavenge some from outside, will you take

hose too?

Winnie’s partner didn’t miss a beat. “Hell yeah, we’ll take ‘em. As long as they can hold liquid–jugs, containers, anything–we’re buying.”

The crowd buzzed with excitement. ‘Sweet! We can just go door–to–door in the ruins!”

f you find them, we’ll buy them,” Winnie added. “My brother and I will be at the base for the next three months. The offer stands until the day we

eave.‘

The survivors were ecstatic.

These days, finding a real job was damn near impossible.

You couldn’t just sit around and wait to starve, but most work was back–breaking or deadly.

Scavenging for plastic buckets? That was easy money.

t was still the early days of the apocalypse. Plastic hadn’t started to rot or get brittle yet; the stuff was everywhere if you knew where to look.

joon, half the base was obsessed. Everywhere you looked, people were scavenging for plastic.

Vinnie and her partner used the chaos to blend right in. They rubbed elbows with the locals, becoming part of the crowd while digging for dirt on how he base really ran.

More deals meant more connections.

And more connections meant more intel.

Winnie had that sweet, girl–next–door look that made people drop their guard instantly. A few minutes of small talk, and the secrets just started pilling.

She logged every single detail. Rumors, facts–it didn’t matter. She took it all back and reported it to Josic, line by line

osie hadn’t actually asked her to dig for intel, but Winnie knew how to play the game. If she wanted to stay by the big boss’s side, she couldn’t just wait or orders She had to be proactive
