Chapter 189 A Joke You Can't Take
"I suggest you find a gun first." Diana said before Chen Ke could speak. She pinched her left arm to relieve the pain, and looked at Chen Ke to ask for his approval.
"I think so too. Although it looks safe here, it will be more reassuring to have a gun in hand." Chen Ke nodded.
The United Federation has a strong gun culture. No matter what difficulties they encounter, as long as they give the people a gun, they can cheer up.
"Although ordinary guns don't mean much to me... but since you have decided so, let's do it. Let's get guns first, and then get food and medicine tomorrow." Ying Boyi hugged his chest and said.
"Tomorrow? Why do we have to wait until tomorrow? Can't we do it at night? I believe everyone should be almost hungry." Sam asked with a smile.
Ying Boyi was silent for a while, as if he was considering whether to say what he knew. He frowned and thought for a long time, and finally did not speak.
"You seem to have something to say, come on, say it and make everyone happy." Chen Ke tried.
"No, I'm just thinking that after we bring the guns back, we have a lot to do and may not have time to find food and medicine. So it's better not to go out at night." Ying Boyi smiled.
"Don't tell me you're afraid of the dark, Ying Boyi." Sam laughed.
"But seriously, how many guns can you three bring back? Besides, the gun cabinets in the county police station have electronic locks, you probably can't open them, right?" Diana suddenly asked.
"If it's a rifle, one person should be able to carry eight... The locks of the gun cabinets... I'll adapt to the situation when the time comes." Chen Ke replied.
He had a basis for this calculation. Most of the guns stored in the county police station are 870 shotguns or M4A1 carbines.
An M4 empty gun 2870 is slightly heavier than a carbine. One person carries 8 rifles, which is about 20 kilograms of weight.
Carrying 20 kilograms and walking for half an hour is a piece of cake for Sam, a former professional soldier, and Chen Ke has unlimited physical endurance. As long as he can carry it, it doesn't matter how far he carries it.
Considering that guns are not as easy to carry as packages, even if you can carry more, you can't carry more, so one person can only carry 8 guns on his back at most, and you have to have a free hand to carry the ammunition box...
Bullets are much heavier than guns, and new bullets are packed in ammunition boxes, so you have to find magazines to put them in one by one...Empty magazines also need to be packed in a pile.
Chen Ke stood there thinking to himself, as if in a daze, and Diana slapped him on the back.
"It's impossible for three people to bring back 8 guns. Someone has to carry bullets. There are also bulletproof vests, knives, etc..." Diana said.
"We don't need too many guns... After all, those things are not very effective against monsters, and we won't let the survivors fight monsters at all." Ying Boyi said at this time.
If they go to find the subway, Ying Boyi must take Sam and Chen Ke. Ying Boyi can use psychic power himself, and he will solve the problem when the real fight comes. Chen Ke and Sam don't need too many bullets.
At least that's what he thinks.
"Giving them guns is just to comfort them. With five or six guns and more than a hundred rounds of bullets, they can take turns to guard the upper windows of the hotel. That's enough." Ying Boyi said.
"But what if they really encounter an emergency and have to face monsters?" Sam asked.
"Don't worry, it won't happen. Just don't run outside. It will be very safe here. If you really have to use guns to fight monsters, it means I'm dead." Ying Boyi promised.
"Okay, superhero, that means we only have to worry about what weapons we use, right?" Chen Ke asked with a smile.
"That's right, arm yourself, and leave the rest to me." Ying Boyi nodded.
Sam looked at Chen Ke, wanting to know if Chen Ke agreed with Ying Boyi's statement. Chen Ke nodded and acted according to Ying Boyi's statement for the time being.
"Okay, now we have reached a consensus, it's time to go get the guns, but before that, I want to know more about you, Chen Ke." Ying Boyi put his arm around Chen Ke's shoulder and said.
"Hmm? What do you want to ask?" Chen Ke looked at Ying Boyi.
"Diana is a CPA agent. Although she has no psychic power now and her left arm is injured, her combat power and intuition are still at the level of a psychic agent." Ying Boyi looked at Diana and said.
"Sam is a United Federation Ranger. His physical and psychological qualities are far superior to ordinary people. He has also undergone several years of systematic combat training." Ying Boyi looked at Sam again and said.
Finally, he looked at Chen Ke: "What about you? Chen Ke?"
The atmosphere became subtle, and Ying Boyi's question was purposeful.
"What do you mean? Do you dislike me for not having a military background and are afraid that I will drag you down?" Chen Ke laughed out loud.
"No, no... You know very well what I mean. Your calmness and your behavior make me feel that you are not an ordinary person... Look at you, you are not panicked at all, as if you know that you can get away with it... Even Diana and Sam, I can feel their deep inner upset and depression, but you... I can't even feel your heartbeat..." Ying Boyi said gloomily.
Chen Ke didn't say anything, but looked at Diana, who slowly took out her revolver, and Sam's arm muscles tensed.
"Now is not the time to be suspicious of each other... Ying Baiyi." Diana swung the hammer, and the revolver magazine slowly turned, making a precise mechanical sound.
"His calmness saved many lives. If he hadn't shouted before the subway crashed, I would have been killed." Sam laughed, his fists clenched and cracked.
The four of them were silent for a few seconds.
Ying Boyi suddenly laughed and said, "Why are you so nervous? I just wanted to know if you can use a rifle. Hahahaha!"
With this ridiculous laughter, Diana and Sam both breathed a sigh of relief. They were not sure they could defeat a psychic. Diana put the gun in her pocket, while Sam stood aside with his arms around his chest.
"I shot a few rounds at the shooting range, it shouldn't be difficult." Chen Ke said.
"It's okay, I can teach you." Sam laughed.
"Then there's no problem, right, we're fine." Ying Boyi said with a smile and glanced at Chen Ke.
"Don't do this again, everyone's spirits are tense, and we can't make such jokes." Diana said helplessly.
"Yes, ma'am. It seems that you don't like the Phoenix Republic's humor. Chen Ke, you must be an Asian who was born and raised in the United States." Ying Boyi laughed.
"Whatever you say is fine." Chen Ke said.
The farce ended, Chen Ke, Sam and Ying Boyi pushed the door and went out to the county police station that Ying Boyi mentioned.
Diana looked at their backs as they left, focused her eyes on Ying Boyi, and then looked at the red dust on the ground, as if she thought of something.
She frowned slightly, and she couldn't sort out her chaotic thoughts for the time being, so she put them aside for the time being and turned to walk up the stairs.
