Chapter 9 Percentages and Hot Baths

Chapter 9 Percentage and Hot Bath ()

Ye Zhiqiu understood Jill's meaning, but noticed her words and asked, "Who are they?"

"Anyone." Jill frowned: "You should know what a temptation this is."

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head: "I thought you mean something."

It would be Jill's turn to remain silent, and after a while, Nicole said, "The order in Anchorage has collapsed, and as far as I know, it is now ruled by a man named Ashford."

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is that?"

"Don't know." This time it was Jill's reply: "We've been away from the crowd for too long, but we've seen this person."

Ye Zhiqiu looked at the silent Nicole and nodded, "It seems that the impression is not very good."

"That's a greedy and evil man." Jill gave the attributive.

Ye Zhiqiu did not doubt Jill's words. In this case, the dark attribute is definitely more likely than the light attribute. This is an inevitable conclusion that will be drawn from the perspective of human nature, but he still reserved the attitude towards Jill's words. This successful person may be evil, but he must be smart. For a smart person, there are always enough ways to achieve a balance.

After a while of silence, Nicole broke the silence: "I don't think Ashford's men have this medical condition. Purifying serum requires a centrifuge and sufficient clinical samples. In addition..." She glanced at Ye Zhiqiu: "Your value actually depends on the number of people produced by this antibody. If everyone who survives can produce this antibody, then you have no value."

Ye Zhiqiu absolutely agrees with this statement. If there are too many things, it is not valuable. It is said that the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qinling are valuable. If they are sold open, they probably are not as expensive as iron ore. Of course, there are marketing channels in it.

The three of them hurriedly ate the meal and began to prepare for the hookup to rob the house. Well, given that the owners of these houses are no longer there, or should be burglary. While preparing, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly asked Nicole: "How much do you think humans are likely to become zombies after being infected?"

Nicole was stunned, thought for a while and said, "Not too much, but it should be a lot."

Ye Zhiqiu curled his lips. This statement was equivalent to not saying it. After all, Nicole is also a doctor, so she would not use such a poor answer, right?

Nicole also knew that her answer was not much better than nonsense, and said apologetically: "This requires statistics, and we do not have enough data to support it."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded, then pointed around: "Now we have a good data environment. There are at least six zombies in this town. At least we have killed so many. How many people do you think there can be in this town?"

Nicole immediately felt energetic. While estimating the size of the town in his heart, Jill had already spoken: "There are about twenty independent houses in the town. The average number of American families is more than two o'clock. Even if calculated based on three, the permanent population here will not exceed one hundred."

"Very good." Ye Zhiqiu came to his spirit: "Where will there be a record of population registration in the town?"

Jill gave him a blank look: "You'd better give up this idea. There will be no motor vehicle department in towns of this size, let alone the Social Security Bureau. This should be just a gathering place for residents. You still have to go to Anchorage to find these information... or Ford Richardson?"

"There will be no police station if you say so?" Ye Zhiqiu was very disappointed. Although he didn't like guns, it didn't mean he didn't want to have such long-range weapons.

Jill shook his head: "If there were sheriffs in the local area, he would probably be working from home."

"Okay." Ye Zhiqiu changed the cloth strips for the saber's handle again, and then looked at his two companions: "Let's set the expectations to the lowest standard, follow me... Remember, don't shoot in my direction."

Jill laughed out loud. When he saw Ye Zhiqiu glaring at him, he held back his smile. He remembered his embarrassment in the corridor of the convenience store, in order to avoid her gun, and he immediately laughed again.

Ye Zhiqiu had no choice but to ignore her. This time the pistol was enough. Jill carried Remington behind her and each of Nicole took an m1911, but neither of the two guns had tactical guides. (In fact, no one added that thing to the pistol, and the tactical flashlight was almost as heavy as the pistol.) So Ye Zhiqiu specially guided Nicole's flashlight when it cooperated with the gun. Then he chose a two-story house and walked in.

After walking around the house, he not only praised the huge house where Americans live, Ye Zhiqiu didn't find anything valuable, but passed a binoculars from his master's study. In addition, on the wall next to the fireplace in the living room, he found a large-diameter double-barrel hunting rifle. Ye Zhiqiu did not think that the power of this gun was comparable to Remington, so he naturally would not add another record to the record he took without a lawsuit.

After confirming that there was no danger in the house, he was about to search for a house, but when he turned around, he found that his two companions were gone.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't think they would be in any danger. The people who could hijack his companions by his side without knowing it did not belong to this planet, but this did not delay him worrying about them, so he turned back to find them and found two women standing in the bathroom muttering something.

Ye Zhiqiu knocked on the open door, Nicole turned around and looked at him apologetically, while Jill scolded him without hesitation: "Don't interrupt the ladies' conversation casually."

Ye Heqiu turned his head disapprovingly: "Okay, you guys go on, I'm going to the next house."

Nicole immediately called him: "Ye, we found that the water supply system and gas pipelines here are still usable."

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned and immediately remembered that he had noticed that there was a water tower in the town. However, he saw the tower at that time. It had been built for at least a hundred years, so he never thought it was still in use. Now that the town is far away from the city, it is likely to have an independent water supply system. So compared to the city's water supply equipment, the water tower that uses pressure differential is obviously more economical. Of course, this has to be thanks to the fact that the water pipes in the town have not been damaged for such a long time, otherwise the water in the largest water tower would have leaked out. By the same token, the gas pipelines in the town should also be independent, and the degree of integrity of the town's preservation is surprising.

"That's great." Ye Zhiqiu spread his hands and said, "We can use the kitchen here, but what are you doing in the bathroom?"

Jill looked at Nicole, and Jill asked him helplessly: "Don't you know that in Alaska, people mostly use gas to boil water and keep warm?"

Ye Zhiqiu looked indifferent, and he didn't plan to stay here for a long time, but when he saw the expressions of his two companions, he suddenly understood what Jill meant: "Boil water? You don't want to take a shower, are you?"

"Oh my God," Jill said loudly, "You finally understand. I don't want to wait for a moment now...Aren't you going to avoid it?"

What could Ye Zhiqiu say? They had guns, so he turned back to the living room and closed the bathroom door for them.
