Chapter 80 Korgan's Dream
Ivan’s cold face sank as he searched the ninth floor. He finally stopped at the elevator shaft. The door of the elevator was opened by hand. He looked at the dark, deep well and said, “Did that bastard escape?”
The younger brother of the Portaschis, Yakov, who was behind Ivan, said ferociously, “I’ll take some men with me and find that bastard.”
“Take more men. I think Victor Hugo is strange,” Ivan said in a low voice. “The media reported that he killed many of the kidnappers in the downtown hospital kidnapping case. He even killed the chief police officer of New York during his escape. It doesn’t make any sense.”
“I’ll be careful.”
Yakov was like his brother - tall and strong and he looked ferocious. With a wave of his hand, more than ten gangsters with guns followed him downstairs via the emergency exit.
As time passed slowly, the sky gradually turned dark.
The gangsters did not manage to find Zhou Qingfeng, but they chased the people who were on the ground floor out of the building and blocked all entrances to the building to prevent other people from coming in and going out.
Meanwhile, Zhou Qingfeng was hiding in the suite and Mobutu, who rested for a few hours, had just woken up from sleep. He was hungry and walked out of the room to find something to eat.
“It’s me. Don’t shoot,” Mobutu opened the door and saw Zhou Qingfeng laid on the couch, resting in the small living room. As soon as Mobutu came out, a USP pistol was pointing at him.
“There are food and drinks in the fridge,” Zhou Qingfeng put back his pistol and reminded Mobutu.
“That’s a good woman.” Mobutu took the food out of the fridge and cracked a joke about Jenny, who was lying in Zhou Qingfeng’s arm. The blonde lady who cried for a long time had fallen asleep. Her hands and legs were wrapped around Zhou Qingfeng.
Zhou Qingfeng ignored Mobutu, carried Jenny, and walked towards his room. Mobutu thought Zhou Qingfeng was going to have fun with her. However, Zhou Qingfeng walked out of the room in less than two minutes and said, “Eat faster. It’s dark now; we’re going out.”
“Where are we going?” Mobutu was astonished as he just had a good sleep and was not ready for the brutal life from before.
“We’re going to kill. How do you plan on surviving without killing other people? The food in front of you is the only portion we have left. As for drinking water, other than the bottles of wine in the cabinet, there’s only the water left in the bathtub. Well, if you’re willing to drink Jenny’s bath water, I wouldn’t mind keeping it for you.”
Mobutu was full of energy, but when he heard what Zhou Qingfeng said, his mood instantly fell to the bottom of a cliff. He started to eat and look at what was around him. He ended up looking at a small balcony. Through the French windows, he saw the high-rise buildings in downtown Manhattan. A place that had used to be prosperous and beautiful had died.
Mobutu filled his stomach with dread, and checked his weapons. He only had one pistol with three magazines and one of them was empty. In contrast, the fully-armed Zhou Qingfeng appeared incomparably reliable.
“Could you give me a gun? I see that you have a shotgun on your back,” Mobutu asked.
Zhou Qingfeng shook his head, “Later on, we’re gonna be killing quietly. Shotguns are going to be useless. Go pick from the dead bodies of gangsters if you really want weapons. Basically, I’ll move, and you cover me.”
“What do you mean by ‘killing quietly’?”
“We’ll be killing with a knife instead of a gun, as much as possible.”
Mobutu did not really agree with Zhou Qingfeng. He had lost faith because of their defeat in the fight earlier and he had lost contact with his previous mates. He regret that he took the risk. He knew it would end up like this.
“We’re going to die anyway, right?” Mobutu said, depressingly. He followed Zhou Qingfeng out of the hidden suite; two of them walked quietly in the corridor of the tenth floor.
“Shut up,” Zhou Qingfeng growled, “Are you trying to alert them?”
As Zhou Qingfeng started to move on the tenth floor, Korgan and his men were on the eighteenth floor and were worried about their current situation, “How many days can our food last?”
“Around three or four.”
As a core member of the gang, Ivan was very experienced in extortion, robbing, and fighting. But, he had no idea how to budget the team’s diet. The ‘three or four days’ he said was an optimistic estimate. They might even have to stave after one or two days.
New York was the largest city in the United States. Its industry of economics, design, production, and service were incredibly developed. However, now, resources needed to be imported. With the emerge of the cataclysm, failing traffic, and poor communication, the resources New York city could provide were not enough to last for a few days.
An ordinary person with common sense would use all their strength to run away from this city filled with murder and violence.
My chance is here. I’m gonna be a pioneer, someone great! I’m gonna build my own world!
As the head of the gangsters, Korgan was very excited when he found out that the police had disappeared. Immediately, he gathered everyone he had and killed all along his way to Manhattan. He decided to conquer the centre of United States, Manhattan, in order to be the warlord.
One of the reasons was definitely because of Zhou Qingfeng. On the first day when Zhou Qingfeng arrived at New York, he had shot at and nearly killed Korgan’s son, Cooper.
On the night when the cataclysm arrived, Cooper was receiving treatment in one of the hospitals in Manhattan. Korgan was trying to conquer Manhattan and save his son. If Zhou Qingfeng knew about it, he would say, “You messed up.” According to the plot in the movie, Korgan’s target area to achieve his dreams was not Manhattan; it should be Queens.
However, it was a fat dream and reality was bony.
During the cataclysm, not only did ordinary people encounter problems, gangsters did, too. Korgan was thinking about conquering the New York police headquarters and to use the large amount of weapons in there to expand his forces. However, a bunch of people had the same idea as him. Those people fought for the entire night near the headquarters and none of them got it.
As a result, no one could get into the police headquarters. The people who lost a lot during the fight had to leave without choice. All of them took over the buildings around the police headquarters and made them their bases. Korgan and his men took over the immigration building.
However, it had only been one day since they came into the building and there was a problem right in front of them - food and water for him and his men. A leader of a gang must be able to take care of his men. Otherwise, no one would work for you without any benefit.
Korgan was not good at these trivial stuff! It was not just Korgan, every gangster in the team was brave and tough, and good at fighting and killing. When they were faced with the problem of food and water, they only knew one way out - robbery!
However, there was no place for them to rob. The shops were closed, supermarkets went out of business, the entire New York city was slowly falling into the abyss of death!
