To her surprise, she found that there was not a single mark of injury on Shen Gongyi's body.
"Huh?! No, Mr. Jingu, you're too bold!" Takashiro Yuriko then praised Jingu.
Yuriko Takashiro's praise was heartfelt.
To single-handedly lure away most of the zombies and return unscathed requires not only considerable strength but also a great deal of courage.
"Hehe, these are all routine procedures for me." Jingu I said in response to Takashiro Yuriko's praise.
"Alright, now that the zombie problem is solved, it's time to settle our own affairs!" Jingu I said to Takagi Yuriko with a serious expression.
"Uh..." Upon hearing Jingu I's words, Takashiro Yuriko couldn't help but twitch her lips.
She knew exactly what Shen Gongyi was talking about.
So she subconsciously started looking for someone.
Find the middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck.
Huh?! No?! Where is he? But after scanning around, I couldn't find that middle-aged man with bandages.
"Hiss~ He didn't run away, did he?!" Yuriko Takagi gasped, a sense of foreboding rising within her.

144. Stealing supplies.

"Hey, look, have you seen Lao Beng (the middle-aged man with bandages)?!" At the entrance of the mall, Yuriko Takashiro asked the person next to her.
When questioned by Yuriko Takagi, her underlings all shook their heads in denial, saying they hadn't seen Ah Beng at all.
"Hey, boss, could it be that Ah Beng ran away because he knew he made a big mistake and was sent away?!" At this moment, a fat uncle spoke to Takashiro Yuriko.
"..." The atmosphere became subtle as soon as the fat uncle spoke.
In fact, Yuriko Takagi had already guessed this possibility, but she just didn't dare to say it.
"Um, Mr. Jingu, I'm very sorry, the person who just fired the shot has run away?" Yuriko Takagi said apologetically to Jingu.
"Huh!? What?! They ran away?" Upon hearing Yuriko Takagi's words, Ichi's expression became subtle.
The middle-aged man with bandages actually ran away, which surprised Jingu Yi.
"Hmm!?" Then, Jingu Yi frowned, and turned to walk towards the mall.
"Mr. Jingu, what are you doing?!" Seeing Jingu's sudden action, Takashiro Yuriko immediately asked.
“That guy was alone, and he probably wanted to take some supplies from the mall before he left!” Jingu Yi said, stating his judgment.
Jingu Yi guessed that since the middle-aged man with bandages had decided to run away, he must have sneaked into the mall to grab some supplies before leaving.
Moreover, since Jingu I and Takashiro Yuriko's people were outside fighting off the zombies, it was a good opportunity to sneak into the mall!
If I'm not mistaken, the middle-aged man with bandages has probably already been captured by Shiraki Meiko.
"Hey, Joel, keep an eye on everyone here. Except for Yuriko Takagi, no one else is allowed to enter the mall!" Suddenly, Jingu Ichiro seemed to remember something and instructed Joel.
Shen Gongyi dared not let these people into the mall. If they did, and were to become greedy and steal the mall's goods, Shen Gongyi would have no choice but to take action against them.
Shen Gongyi dared not underestimate human nature.
“Okay! I understand!” Upon hearing Shen Gongyi’s instructions, Joel nodded in agreement.
Then he looked warily at the group of people that Yuriko Takashiro had brought.
"..." Faced with Jingu I's treatment, the group of people brought by Takagi Yuriko were naturally unhappy.
"Boss, why is that guy treating us like this?!" At this moment, the chubby uncle walked up to Yuriko Takagi and complained to her.
"Sigh~ There's nothing we can do, it's our people who caused trouble!" Hearing the fat man's words, Yuriko Takagi also sighed.
"That's right, boss, are we just supposed to swallow this insult?!" the chubby uncle said to Yuriko Takagi.
"What else can we do?! After all, we were in the wrong first, and their strength is not to be underestimated, especially that woman named Joel, none of us here can beat her!" Takagi Yuriko said to the fat uncle.
"Uh..." Upon hearing Yuriko Takagi's words, the chubby uncle subconsciously looked at Yoel beside him.
Joel also noticed the fat man's gaze and subconsciously looked at him.
Upon meeting Joel's gaze, the chubby man immediately felt an invisible pressure.
He felt like he was being stared at by a monster.
He instinctively shivered and immediately looked away.
"You all stay here, I'll go in and check the situation," Yuriko Takagi said after a moment's thought, addressing the portly man and the others.
Just now, Jinguichi said that no one except Takashiro Yuriko is allowed to enter the mall. Now that the zombies have been dealt with, Jinguichi should fulfill his promise to give her supplies!
Yuriko Takashiro entered the shopping mall.
……
Just as Jingu Yi had guessed, the middle-aged man with bandages did indeed enter the mall and was captured by Shiraki Meiko.
As soon as Jingu Yi entered the mall, he saw a middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck being tied up with rope.
Moreover, he was still unconscious at that moment.
“Welcome back, Jingu-sensei!” At this moment, Takagi Saya took the initiative to step forward and greet her.
"Did you catch this person?!" Jingu I pointed to the middle-aged man who was tied up and asked Takagi Saya and the others.
"Huh?!" Saya Takagi and the others also showed surprise when they saw the middle-aged man who was tied up.
They seemed to have just noticed this guy.
"Wait, when did this person get here?!" Shizuka Marikawa was also shocked to see the middle-aged man tied up.
“This is the ‘rat’ you’re talking about!!” At this moment, Takagi Saya looked at Shiraki Meiko beside her.
She seemed to remember clearly that Shiraki Meiko had just said she caught a "mouse," but it turned out to be a person!
"Huh?!" Yuriko Takagi was shocked to see the middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck and bound with rope.
She never expected that the middle-aged man with bandages would be subdued, and it seemed that he was subdued very easily.
"Hey, Mr. Jingu, I caught this guy sneaking into the mall to steal supplies." Shiraki Meiko walked up to Jingu and said to him.
"Heh heh, she's Yuriko Takashiro's person, how could you tie her up?!" At this moment, Ichigo Jingu rebuked Meiko Shiraki.
While it's said to be criticizing Shiraki Meiko, it's actually just a different way of talking about Takashiro Yuriko.
"Um, Mr. Jingu, I'm very sorry. I didn't manage my people well," Yuriko Takagi immediately apologized to Jingu.
A verbal apology wasn't enough; she bowed slightly to Shen Gongyi.
Because Yuriko Takashiro was wearing a high-necked dress, and due to the angle, when she bowed, Ichi could see a beautiful expanse of white.
Yes, Yuriko Takashiro did apologize!
"Well, your attitude is quite sincere." Jingu Yi waved his hand.
"Mr. Jingu, you're not going to hold this against me?!" Upon hearing Jingu's words, Yuriko Takagi's eyes widened.
"I can overlook the fact that my men were shot before," Jingu I said to Takagi Yuriko.
When he said this, Jingu Yi put on a very magnanimous expression.
"But what about this time?! This person actually broke into our mall and stole supplies?" But then, Shen Gongyi changed the subject.
"Ah, this, this is entirely this person's personal behavior! Please don't take your anger out on us because of him," Takagi Yuriko said to Jingu Ichi.
Yuriko Takashiro was hoping to get supplies through Jingu Yi! Little did she expect that this middle-aged man with bandages would cause trouble again.
This caused a rift to appear again in her relationship with Jingu Ichi.
"You mean you're not going to care about him?!" Jingu asked after hearing Takagi Yuriko's words.
"Well, I don't care what you do with that guy! I just ask Mr. Jingu Yi to keep his promise and give us the supplies!" Yuriko Takagi said to Jingu Yi.

“Mr. Jingu, we really need supplies, so please don’t take your anger out on us because of this person!” Takagi Yuriko said sincerely to Jingu.
She was genuinely afraid that Shen Gongyi would lose his temper and stop providing them with supplies.
It's the apocalypse now, and resources are already scarce. The middle-aged man with bandages just gave Shen Gongyi and his group a reason not to give them any supplies.
Yuriko Takagi was also very angry at the middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his neck!
I've never seen such a terrible teammate.
"Don't worry, I promised to give you the supplies, and I won't break my promise!" Seeing the worried look on Takashiro Yuriko's face, Jingu Yi comforted her.
One thing at a time, although the middle-aged man with bandages planned to steal supplies from the mall, that was ultimately his own decision, and it had little to do with Yuriko Takashiro.
When the middle-aged man with bandages sneaked into the mall, Yuriko Takashiro was leading her people in fighting zombies in front of the mall.
Moreover, Jingu Ichi had promised Takashiro Yuriko that he would give her supplies, and he didn't want to be a person who broke his promise. Besides, he really didn't lack supplies.
“Mrs. Takashiro, although I will still give you the supplies, I’m going to beat this man up! I want others to know that there is a price to pay for stealing supplies!” Jingu I said to Takashiro Yuriko.
"Ah! Beat him up! No problem!" Upon hearing that Jinguichi was going to beat up the middle-aged man with bandages, Takagi Yuriko spoke to him without any hesitation.
"Oh!? Mrs. Takagi, you're not going to beg for his life?!" Seeing Takagi Yuriko's attitude, Jingu Ichi was quite surprised.
