Chapter 31: Bastard Thief
At the fire captain’s house, Joe had done a great job of restraining his old captain. Unlike his father, who was at level 1, the old captain was at level 2 and had put up a good fight, trying to bite him. But Joe had managed to restrain him and now had tied his arms and legs.
"Grahhh"
"Captain, be patient, I don’t want to gag you too..." Joe said, looking at the old man with a black eye, with a look of guilt... When he went to touch his radio to tell Rick that he had everything under control here. Rick’s voice came first:
"Hey Joe, can you hear me?"
"Yes, I can hear you. Everything is ready here, I already have the captain ’ready’."
"That’s good news. Stay there, I’m almost done getting everything we need here, and we’ll meet you there."
"We?" Joe asked.
"Yes, it’s a surprise..."
Almost an hour later, Rick arrived at the Captain’s house accompanied by six other survivors. Among them, Joe immediately recognized three of them as two veteran firefighters and the last one as another rookie who graduated this year with them. With them were two women, and one of them was holding a baby. This was really good news, it was the first baby they had seen since everything had started...
