Doomsday Revenge: Payback Time (Josie) novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153

The crew finally caught a break, scrambled out of there, and hauled ass back to the main road.

Still, that afternoon delay had its perks. It gave Josie the perfect chance to strip the Agri–Science Institute bone–dry. She didn’t lea single thing behind.

“Let’s get ourselves together,” June said, pulling out a mirror to fix her messy hair. “He’s the Director of the Agri–Science Institute.’ need to show some respect. We’re the face of the Base–we can’t lose face here.”

“You’re the boss, June. Whatever you say,” the others chimed in. They immediately started fixing themselves up–splashing water on their faces and dragging combs through their ratty hair. Once they looked halfway decent, they finally walked up and hammered on

door.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

They kept at it for a while, shouting until their throats were sore, but nobody came to open it. The building stayed dead quiet.

“What’s the deal? We’re making enough noise to wake the dead. There’s no way they don’t hear us,” someone muttered, looking confused. “Are they even in there?”

“Hit it harder!”

BANG! BANG! BANG! They slammed against the door with everything they had. The racket was so loud it was basically a dinner be for the Undead in the area.

Still nothing. Just silence from the other side.

“Something’s wrong. We’re going in!” June said. “Maybe the old Director and his team are in trouble. That’s probably why they haven’t heard us. Metallic Supers, get over here! Bust this door down!”

“Got it.” The Metallic Super in the squad stepped up. He tapped into his power, and the lock melted away.

The heavy door creaked and swung wide.

It was dead quiet inside. Not a single sound.

“Something’s off,” June said, her voice low. “Split up. Search every inch of this place!*

They moved fast.

The Supers fanned out instantly, kicking in doors and sweeping through every yard and room.

But what they saw stopped them dead in their tracks.

Empty. The entire place was completely empty.

The lab building used to be packed wall–to–wall. Now? It was a total void. It was so empty a rat could run a damn marathon in here and never trip over a single thing.

“What the hell is going on?” Everyone was reeling. “Where’s all the gear? Where are the people? Did the Undead snatch them? Or did the Murants turn them all into lunch?”

“Look, the undead and mutants eating people is one thing, but I’ve never heard of them eating Freaking machinery! This place was clearly hit,” someone snapped, finally putting the pieces together. “We’re a step too late. Someone got here first and hauled them off.

June realized it, too. Her jaw tightened, and she spat the words our “It’s Josie. It has to be her! Who else has a storage space that huge?”

The words hung in the air.

The whole place went dead silent.

She was right.

Who else but Josie had that kind of capacity?

Sure, the base had spatial supers, but their storage was a joke.

They couldn’t fit anything big. Throw in a few sacks of grain, and they were already maxed out.

Honestly, they were nothing more than walking suitcases.

Using them for anything serious? Forget about it.
