While walking on the road with Roel, Kasha began to observe the surrounding environment.
Quickly becoming familiar with a new environment can allow you to adapt to the impact of environmental changes more quickly, and those things that you usually think are unnecessary to remember may play an unexpected role in certain situations.
This so-called enclosed space gave Kasha the feeling of a huge abandoned building.
Due to its location, its exact height was still unknown.
Nearly a thousand freshmen also scattered and ran away.
Some hid, looking at them with vigilant eyes when passing by, while more chose to huddle together.
However, Kasha directly hung his number plate on his chest, and anyone who saw the “No. 999” on his chest lost interest in attacking him.
In these people’s minds, “No. 1” corresponds to “No. 1000”, and “No. 999” is only needed by “No. 2”, not to mention that “No. 2” can choose to put together the cards to meet the clearance conditions.
Therefore, if someone comes out to take action against “No. 999” now, it should be “No. 2” who wants to pass the level as soon as possible.
Next to Kasha, Roel also followed his example and put his number plate on his chest.
The conspicuous “No. 1” made people more alert at the same time.
First of all, the number “No. 1” was too small.
Unless they got a number plate with one less than the number they needed, they would not start with “No. 1”.
Secondly, being able to get the number plate “No. 1” proved that his qualifications were the highest among the thousand people.
What did this mean?
It meant that he was very likely to be the most powerful among the thousand people.
These one thousand freshmen were all strangers, and some of them didn’t even see each other’s faces after entering the hall.
Therefore, no one knew Roel, and no one knew Roel’s background.
Except for the people in the group, the lone ranger would not choose “No. 1” as the first target.
Similarly, the numbers that the group members need to gather are more complicated, and the role of a “No. 1” is very small, not to mention that the combat effectiveness of this “No. 1” is unknown.
If they act rashly, the injured group member will easily become the target of other group members, after all, the group members have the most cards in their hands.
So, “No. 999” and “No. 1” swaggered around in this closed space.
Of course, knowing that there might be an ambush, Kasha and Roel did not rush to open the door and run into other rooms.
They just walked through the aisles one floor at a time and confirmed that this closed space had a total of twenty floors, and the area of ​​each floor was not small, roughly about 40,000 square meters.
It was really difficult to find these one thousand freshmen who were hiding like this.
However, Kasha did not have the time to look through other people’s number plates one by one to confirm who was “No. 0”.
Ignoring the occasional sounds of beating and crying, Kasha brought Roel to the area on the third floor.
“What are we doing here?”
Roel felt that there seemed to be quite a few people on this floor.
There were messy footprints on the ground and many shelves had been overturned.
Judging from the dust on them, it was obvious that they had just been overturned by someone.
“Starting from the iron gate, the three floors of this building were originally shopping malls, and the third floor was a food area, but…”
After opening a can and smelling the odor of rotten food, Kasha frowned and threw it on the ground: “But the edible things have gone bad, but these things are not spoiled because they have been left for too long. Some of the ones with a shorter shelf life may have spoiled naturally, but this kind of can…Judging from the cuts on it, it is very likely that someone deliberately opened this kind of sealed food with a longer shelf life and left it for a while, deliberately creating such an environment.”
“Speaking of food, what are we going to eat in these three days?”
Roel also reacted.
Of course, he was more because he was a little hungry.
“Yes, what to eat is a very important matter. When we were sent here, all our belongings were gone. We only had this hospital gown. Even if some freshmen brought food with them, they can’t eat it now. The food in the food area on this floor has all gone bad. However, I saw some military canned food on the ground just now.”
Kasha picked up an empty can from the ground while speaking: “The shelf life of this kind of thing is much longer than that of ordinary canned food, and…”
Kasha turned the empty can over, and a few drops of oil dripped into it.
“And it’s not spoiled yet. Look, it was eaten by someone. There’s a little blood on it. Someone accidentally cut themselves while eating it…That is to say, the people who created this environment didn’t waste these military cans. So, these military cans were left for us freshmen on purpose.”
Looking at the oil stains in the can, Roel suddenly realized: “Are you trying to say that there might be food here?”
“No, it may be gone.”
Kasha shook his head: “Those who got there first may have already emptied out the things.”
Everyone is not stupid.
Having food can be used as a bargaining chip for negotiating with other teams.
And if all the food can be taken away, those who come later will have nothing to eat.
At that time, whether it is the advantage of physical strength or through the exchange of materials, it will be much easier to pass the level. then……
When Kasha and Roel found a military canned food storage warehouse, the contents had already been emptied.
“There’s really nothing left, so what should we do?”
Roel touched his stomach.
Although the air here exuded a stench of corruption, he became even hungrier.
So Roel turned his inquiring eyes to Kasha.
Speaking of which, since listening to Kasha’s analysis of the number plate just now, he felt like he didn’t want to use his brain anymore.
Whenever he encountered any problem, he could just ask Kasha what to do…
This feeling is quite addictive.
“From the things we saw just now, this place actually has things prepared for us.”
Kasha walked around the warehouse and found that the door of the warehouse was a special explosion-proof door.
This design was to prevent someone from violently breaking down the door and moving the goods away.
This type of door is easy to open and close, and is very sturdy.
After finding the switch valve of the explosion-proof door, Kasha nodded with satisfaction.
Then, Kasha looked at the three shelves inside and silently calculated the number of cans that could be stored in this warehouse based on the size of the empty cans in his hand.
“This warehouse is too small. It may be hard to put in a thousand cans of food. I don’t think a thousand cans of food can feed a thousand students for three days, and…”
Kasha pointed to a broken display screen high up in the warehouse in the face of Roel’s puzzled look.
“Roel, under what circumstances do you think someone would deliberately destroy a display screen at this height?”
“Eh?”
Roel was stunned for a moment: “Maybe they accidentally touched it when they were fighting for the cans…” Kasha was silent for two seconds: “Roel, you are such a nitpicker.”
“Ah? What is that?”
“I mean to compliment you on your intelligence.”
“Ah, thank you…” “
Roel touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly.
“This display screen is placed so high, it was deliberately intended for people to see it, but someone smashed it and did such a thankless task…Therefore, I judge that the content on this display screen is what those who came here first to steal the food did not want others to see. Combined with what was said just now, the number of canned food in this warehouse is not enough for a thousand people to eat for three days…”
“The content on this display screen…if nothing unexpected happens, it should be the time when the food is delivered, right?”
Kasha let out a breath: “Am I right, the person outside?”
As soon as Kasha finished speaking, Roel quickly turned his head and saw more than 20 young men holding various metal tools gathered outside.
“Very interesting reasoning.”
A gray-haired boy applauded.
“But I’m curious, how did you know there would be food here?”
“That’s easy to judge. Normally, if there is no more food here, the people who stole the food will definitely leave the third floor and hide somewhere else. Otherwise, after a while, some people who are in a group will get hungry and will definitely come to this place to search. At that time, those hiding on the third floor will definitely be the first to be targeted. Therefore, there must be something here that you are willing to risk leaving behind. This thing is the reason why you can stick together and believe that you can continue to expand and absorb other newcomers, and eventually become a force that no one else can resist.”
Kasha threw the empty can in his hand to the ground: “All I can think of now is food.”
“That’s right.”
The gray-haired boy looked at Kasha with kindness in his eyes: “I admire you very much, are you willing to join us?”
“Join you? Of course that would be the best! There are only two of us, and it would be difficult to snatch other people’s cards.”
As he spoke, Kasha had already walked to the explosion-proof door of the warehouse.
Suddenly, he pulled the door handle hard, closed it, and turned the lock handle, all in one go.
He was so skilled that it seemed as if he was an old warehouse keeper who had been in charge of this warehouse for decades!
“Gala!”
After the explosion-proof door was locked, the group of teenagers outside were stunned.
“Fuck it!”
“Smash it!”
“Come out now! You’re dead if you don’t!”
Kasha sighed silently: “Young.”
Roel on the side looked at Kasha as if he saw a god.
Kasha felt a little nervous when Roel stared at him, so he pushed Roel’s face away.
“What are you looking at? I was just pretending to be cool. It would be embarrassing if I guessed wrong. Fortunately, I was smart and pretended to be confident.”
Roel was shocked: “What!? You are pretending!? Then all your analysis is fake?”
“Analysis is analysis, but who can tell the truth of the matter? I was obviously trying to trick him just now, but from his reaction, I knew I was right.”
Kasha shrugged: “Otherwise I would have taken you to join them just now.”
Listening to the banging on the door and the cursing outside, Roel was a little dumbfounded: “Then why don’t you just join them?”
“Join them? It doesn’t matter if I’m No. 999, but you, No. 1, are the easiest to be filled by others.”
Kasha gave Roel a cold look.
“Kasha, Kasha…Thank you, wuwu…It’s been a long time since I met someone who cares about me as much as you do.”
Roel was so moved that tears came to his eyes instantly.
Although he is a boy, it doesn’t look weird at all when he cries.
——Actually, I’m not doing this for you.
If I do this, they will definitely not hide the news about the food anymore.
Then, other freshmen will gather here for the food.
Then, my chances of successfully passing the level will be the highest.
Kasha looked at the big boy who suddenly started crying, but ultimately didn’t say this out loud.
