Hey streamer, I want to come to the apocalypse and survive with you!

Chapter 9: Aba aba aba...

Lu Yaoxian's situation was arguably the worst he had ever been since the end of the world.

The natives had already occupied the rooftop, and judging from the noise outside, they were already inside the stairwell.

Is it going to come down?

Hearing the noise outside, Lu Yao carefully closed the door, locked it, and crouched down as she quickly walked towards the bedroom.

While he was hiding in the bedroom, Aya and ten others, armed with guns, began to walk downstairs.

Leading the way was a masked man. He would stop every few steps, then lie down and sniff the ground carefully before checking its condition.

"Still downstairs!"

The masked man frowned and explained, "This person is clever. He ran downhill, dragging something along with him. Look at the tracks on the ground!"

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed.

And you know what? The drag marks on the dusty ground were quite clear.

"Find him!"

Aya's expression was grave. She gripped her gun tightly and said, "We may have killed their comrade, which means we've made an enemy. If we don't capture him, our situation will likely become even more dangerous!"

Upon hearing this, the masked man quickened his pace and immediately followed him downstairs.

Soon, they arrived at the seventeenth floor.

The masked man stopped and sniffed the ground, then carefully examined the drag marks in the stairwell.

"It's on this floor!"

The masked man looked up at the stairwell to his left and sneered, "He went to the room on the left. I'll lead the way!"

As he spoke, he strode out, staring at the drag marks on the ground. Soon, the group arrived at a locked door.

The traces have disappeared here.

In other words, that person is very likely hiding in the room right in front of us.

"I'll break down the door!"

Ali stepped forward and slammed his arm against the door in front of him.

"Bang!"

In just a moment, the iron gate could no longer stop Ali's steps. The entire gate was smashed inwards, and the lock was forcefully broken through the barrier.

The room was silent. Aya and the others immediately set up their guns to guard their surroundings.

If there is any unusual movement, their guns will immediately start firing bullets.

But the room was completely silent, which surprised them all.

Nobody here?

Could it be that they guessed wrong?

Inside the bedroom.

When Lu Yao heard the door outside being kicked open, her heart sank completely, and she took the opportunity to curse Han Feng and his entire family.

Now things are much better; the other side has guns and more people, giving them a complete advantage.

With only his homemade spear, he was basically committing suicide.

People in the live stream also became worried, after all, they had heard the crisp sound of the door being broken open.

Now everyone is worried about Lu Yao's situation.

Keep in mind that these locals had just killed someone. If they found Lu Yao, they might still choose to attack him directly, and Lu Yao's live-streaming career would come to an end.

"Inside!"

The masked man pointed to the bedroom door where Lu Yao was and said, "He has a very peculiar smell coming from inside."

Upon hearing this, Aya and the others took their guns and went to the doorway.

Ali prepared to ram the door again; once they broke it open, they could catch the guy who was hiding.

No one else stopped him; they gestured for Ali to ram the door open.

Just as Ali mustered his strength and raised his arm to charge forward, the tightly closed bedroom door suddenly opened.

"Click!"

The bedroom door opened.

Aya and the others immediately raised their guns, pointing them at Lu Yao who was standing at the door.

Instead of firing immediately, a group of people pointed their guns at him while also sizing up this guy who had likely been living in the city all along.

"Who are you?"

Aya asked the question.

Lu Yao frowned as he watched the other person speak, and then his mind raced.

Damn it.

I can't understand their language.

Sure enough, this post-apocalyptic world was completely unfamiliar to him, and even language communication became the most basic problem.

But this is also good news, at least it provides an opportunity to work out.

"Aba aba aba..."

Lu Yao looked at them with a puzzled expression, then pointed with her finger, as if she couldn't speak properly.

The viewers in the live stream were initially stunned by what they saw, but then breathed a sigh of relief.

[Patrick Star's friend: You're smart, host! If you don't understand them, just pretend you're mute. That's a good way to avoid revealing your identity.]

[A radish: Although it's only a temporary safety measure, this method can at least keep you alive.]

[Brother Wuji: I was so nervous watching this, I was afraid the streamer would get wiped out by a whole magazine of bullets. Just surviving is good enough. For now, don't chat with us, let's focus on figuring out how to solve this problem!]

[Turkey-flavored rice crackers: That makes sense. The streamer should just stay alive and well. Leave the gift-giving to us, and the admins should remember to thank everyone on their behalf!]

【…】

Aya and the others looked at the guy in front of them who could only say "Aba aba" and instantly realized that he was mute.

However, what they cared about was not that, but Lu Yao's fair and clean appearance.

Hostage!

This is a genuine meat ticket!

A living hostage!

Ali stared at Lu Yao, swallowed hard, and quickly said, "He...is he a hostage? He must be, right? There's no sign of contamination on him!"

"Let me check!"

Aya holstered her gun and said in a deep voice, "Keep an eye on him. If he makes any unusual moves, shoot immediately!"

After saying that, she walked up to Lu Yao and grabbed his collar with her right hand, which was covered in purple patterns.

Then, to Lu Yao's astonishment, she lifted Lu Yao's clothes to examine him.

Lu Yao: ? ? ?

What?

If you want to kill someone, then kill them. What's the point of humiliating me?

Faced with the dark muzzle of a gun, his initial thought of resistance vanished completely in an instant.

We can't afford to mess with them, we really can't afford to mess with them.

Aya checked very carefully, even pulling down Lu Yao's pants to take a look, but she didn't touch his underwear, clearly indicating that she was aware of some ethical boundaries.

Once it was confirmed that Lu Yao had no purple markings on his body, it could be confirmed that he was the uncontaminated hostage!

"He's definitely a hostage, and he's very clean; he'll definitely fetch a good price!"

Aya's gaze towards Lu Yao changed at that moment.

They came here looking for medicine, but instead they caught a hostage.

Lu Yao now has no problem exchanging medicine, let alone obtaining enough supplies to support an entire settlement.

"Ali, keep an eye on him! You absolutely can't let him die; he's our hope!"

Aya hurriedly said, "He's a hostage, we must protect him. Even if we can't find the medicine, taking him back and selling him to those itinerant merchants will at least provide enough food for our settlement for a year..."
