However, Li Han still got what he wanted and passed through the checkpoint.
Then, a gunshot was heard. The big internet celebrity with two million followers suddenly disappeared.
Whether from a legal or physical perspective, he was gone.
After this incident, the people on the bridge became very quiet and obedient, motionless, and no one dared to criticize Qin Jun and his group's blatant privilege.
They were afraid.
In peaceful times, privileged people like Qin Jun seemed no different from ordinary people.
They queued to board planes, waited at traffic lights while driving, and had to yield to unruly elderly pedestrians.
But all of this was a disguise, a show.
They cloaked this world with a hypocritical and gentle veil — a fairy tale world for ordinary people.
But once matters conflicted with their fundamental interests, they would immediately tear off the veil and reveal the bloody cruelty beneath.
In times of crisis, a squad of soldiers would come to pick up Qin Jun. He could leave the lockdown zone without a pass and had a special plane waiting just for him.
Meanwhile, ordinary people could only wait to die inside the lockdown zones.
Even if they had done nothing wrong.
That's just how it is — human lives are not equal.
To some people, one hair from Qin Jun was worth more than these tens of thousands of lives....
Chen Chong was expressionless but there was a trace of pity deep in his eyes.
Because he knew very well, in the apocalypse, privilege was even more terrifying!
The appearance of evolvers directly divided people into higher and lower tiers.
Some evolvers even considered themselves new humans, viewing unevolved humans as swine fit only to be enslaved!
But Chen Chong only pitied for a moment. In the apocalypse, pity and sympathy were too luxurious emotions.
To survive, learning to be indifferent was a required course.
After passing the checkpoint with An Mian, Chen Chong saw a brightly lit world — completely different from the lockdown zones!
But Chen Chong knew the outside was not safe either. In a few hours, the military blockade would be broken, and everything would become hell.
His gaze fell on a tall tower — Jiangjing's landmark, Dongfang Building!
According to memories from his previous life, the SSS-tier talent seed would appear there tomorrow!
Only this last step stood between him and his rise!
.......
Beside Qin Jun, Zhao Yi whispered, "The plane is ready. I'll send someone to escort you to the military airport."
But Qin Jun shook his head calmly: "No rush."
Zhao Yi was stunned. The situation was so critical, yet Qin Jun wasn't eager to leave!
Qin Jun wasn't in a hurry, but Zhao Yi was.
If Qin Jun encountered any accident, Zhao Yi would be in deep trouble!
He hurriedly advised, "But Qin Committee Chairman ordered...."
Qin Jun interrupted: "I will explain to my father."
Seeing Qin Jun say this, Zhao Yi did not insist and nodded.
The situation was so critical; escorting Qin Jun out now was the best chance. If the situation deteriorated, escorting Qin Jun would cost more manpower and resources.
Who knew how many would die on a whim of this privileged heir?
"Also."
While Zhao Yi was thinking about security arrangements, Qin Jun's voice sounded again.
"Division Commander Zhao, I don't like others questioning my decisions, no matter their reasons." Qin Jun smiled at Zhao Yi.
But that look made Zhao Yi shiver inside!
A real power player in the garrison faced a twenty-year-old youth and felt a trace of fear.
Zhao Yi took a deep breath and nodded: "I was rude, sorry."
This scene left An Mian, who was following behind, dumbfounded.
She knew Zhao Yi was a powerful figure in the Jiangjing Garrison. Even her father treated Zhao Yi respectfully.
Yet Zhao Yi showed fear and didn't get angry when being scolded by Qin Jun?
Only now did An Mian begin to understand what Qin Jun meant when he said he could do whatever he wanted simply because he was Qin Committee Chairman....
At this moment, Qin Jun suddenly turned and smiled at An Mian and the others: "They are all my... friends. Division Commander Zhao, protect them. No one may leave without my order."
Chen Chong's heart sank to the bottom.
This wasn't protection; it was outright house arrest!
