After a show of hands, everyone decided to stay in the Chiayi City base for two more days, both to test the situation and to take the opportunity to rest.

The branches in Lu Nange's palm were rolling, and she was also wondering why the system did not issue rewards?

The few of them walked for a while, and after Lu Nange confirmed that there was no one around, he moved his fingertips slightly, and two modified off-road vehicles appeared out of thin air.

Driving towards the Jia City base.

In a vehicle not far from the Jia City base, the two peepers finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"We're finally back!" One of them wiped his sweat and his tense shoulders relaxed slightly.

"Follow them for a while and see if they go to the mission center to hand in the supplies. Then we can figure out how to report to the boss!"

Return to the small courtyard where I rented.

Chi Yanzhou's gaze fell on the crack of the gate - a few strands of hair left by Lu Nange were gone.

"Someone has been here." He said in a low voice.

Several people quickly checked the house.

Sure enough, the cabinet doors, drawers, upstairs and downstairs all showed signs of having been turned over. Although the other party tried their best to cover it up, the slightest movement could not escape their eyes.

He Zhuo asked: "After touching them once, they should be able to feel relieved, right?"

Lu Nange's mental power scanned the vehicles outside the house: "There are people watching outside the door. They will probably not be able to leave until we complete our mission."

"Then shall we hand in the task now?" He Zhuo pulled at the clothes that were sticking to his body, beads of sweat rolling down his Adam's apple.

Gu Wan glanced at the scorching sun outside the window: "It's so hot, how about going later when the sun sets?"

"Why do you girls need to go all the way here?" He Zhuo grinned, "We, the rough guys, can go!"

Gu Qi patted his shoulder: "I'll go with you."

He turned to look at Ji Xian and Chi Yi: "Old Ji, Brother Chi Yi, you didn't go out this morning, why don't you come with us to visit?"

Ji Xian: "䶓."

Chi Yi: "Okay."

"Wait!" He Zhuo grabbed the blood-soaked hem of his clothes. The sticky touch made him frown. He turned to look at Lu Nange, with a bit of coquettish complaint in his tone.

"Sister, I want to change my clothes..."

"Just go like this." Chi Yanzhou interrupted He Zhuo.

He Zhuo pulled at the cloth stuck to his body and muttered unwillingly: "Brother Yan, this thing is sticky, like it's covered with a layer of paste, it's uncomfortable!"

Lu Xici: "Who comes back from searching for supplies without looking dusty? It's not appropriate to be too clean."

He Zhuo was stunned, then suddenly slapped his forehead and laughed: "Yeah, why pretend to be a gentleman in the end times!"

The four of them carried bulging bags of supplies out of the hospital gate.

......

Lu Nange and his companions quickly restored the house to the way it was before they left.

The doors and windows were closed, the curtains were drawn tightly, and a few pieces of ice were placed in the middle of the living room, allowing a hint of cool air to slowly spread in the sultry air.

The macaw flapped its wings from time to time to cool down quickly.

After the indoor temperature dropped, everyone took turns taking a shower.

Gangzi tilted his head, stared at the fragrant Lu Nange and the others, and suddenly started to yell.

It flapped its wings and flew to the kitchen, picked up a plastic basin and threw it on the ground with a bang.

“Ga ga ga!!!”

[I want to take a nice bath too, I’ll take a bath right here!]

Lu Beiye glanced at Gangzi, then looked up at Lu Nange: "Sister, is it going to take a bath here?"

"Beauty, Aye, quack quack!!!"

[I share my beauty generously, unlike you guys who have to hide in a cubicle!]

Everyone laughed...

Lu Nange changed the basin for it and reached out to scoop it into the basin.

Wen Qing and the other two rushed to give Gangzi a bath. One wet the feathers, one rubbed the foam, and one was responsible for rinsing.

Gangzi squinted his eyes and fluttered his wings in enjoyment, splashing water and foam everywhere.

The little tree man climbed the edge of the pot with two slender branches, observed curiously for a while, and suddenly rolled up a ball of foam, which "popped" onto the water lily above his head.

He shook it proudly, as if showing off his hairstyle.

Perhaps it found it interesting, so it stretched out its branches again and gently patted Lu Nange's wrist, indicating that it wanted to wash too.

Lu Nange had just taken out a clean small basin and had not had time to pour water into it.

Zhizhi couldn't wait to flip over and, imitating Gangzi's appearance, sat upright in the center of the pot, its leaves swaying slightly, as if urging it to do so.

Warm water slowly poured into the basin, and the branches stretched out happily, then reached out stealthily towards Gangzi, rolled back a ball of foam, and imitated it by throwing it on their wavy leaves.

Lu Beiye squatted beside Lu Nange, his elbows resting on his knees, his chin supported by his palms, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised.

The bird and the tree had just finished a bath, and their feathers and leaves were still dripping with water. Gangzi could not wait to grab a branch with his beak and drag it to the yard to dry.

"Gah! You!"

The branches of the twigs dangled in the air like a reluctant vine.

Lu Nange tapped its branches and leaves, and the branches then wrapped around Gangzi's back obediently.

Lu Nange had reminded Gangzi, so Gangzi did not grow bigger. He just carried Zhizhi on his back and fluttered up and down in the yard.

The sunlight penetrates the water droplets, refracting into tiny pieces of light on the feathers and leaves.

The branches swayed along the flight trajectory, occasionally entangled with Gangzi's tail feathers, causing it to make an unhappy "click". However, it could do nothing but continue to carry this troublesome tree crookedly, drawing irregular arcs in the yard.
