Lu Nange raised his eyes and continued He Zhuo's words: "Even if things don't go well, there's no need to do anything... Just use the supplies and exchange!

Since Longteng is willing to send people over to discuss purchasing, it means they are indeed short of supplies.

As long as we offer a price that's attractive enough, getting my uncle and his family out safely shouldn't be a problem."

He Zhuo stuffed the hot pot meat into his mouth and mumbled, "Will the lion's mouth be too big?"

Shi Xu: "No! There are no specific rules for joining or leaving the base."

Just then, the sound of a door opening and footsteps were heard downstairs.

He Zhuo sat near the gate fence, stood up and looked down: "The two old men are back!"

Chi Yanzhou: "Ask them if they've eaten yet, and if they want to join us."

He Zhuo immediately clung to the railing, waved the bowl in his hand downstairs, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Grandpa Chi! Grandpa Shi! The hot pot is hot, do you want to join us?"

Grandpa Chi responded from downstairs: "Play by yourselves, don't disturb us old men playing chess!"

He Zhuo retracted his head, spread his hands, and made a face: "I've been ruthlessly rejected!"

Gu Wan: "This is the reality of young people today. They're treated like darlings for the first three days after returning home, but become just another kid after a week. After ten days, they're completely disgusted with everything about you..."

Wen Qing: "It's all cooked, eat it quickly!"

More than a dozen pairs of chopsticks were reaching into the pot...

......

Late at night, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Wen Qing climbed up to the rooftop alone...

Lu Nange had just finished feeding Lu Beiye the permanent strength pills and was about to return to his room when he saw Wen Qing coming up the stairs and followed him...

Under the moonlight, Wen Qing leaned back in his chair and stared at the sky in a trance...

The night wind blew the loose hair on her forehead, and her eyes were empty and unfocused.

Hearing footsteps, Wen Qing turned his head to look at Nan Nan: "Nan Nan?"

"Yes, it's me." Lu Nange sat down next to her.

The two were silent for a moment before Wen Qing spoke softly, her voice a little vague in the night wind: "Nannan, are you telling me... are my family members no longer around?"

Lu Nange turned to look at Wen Qing, only to see her looking up at the night sky, with a sparkling light twinkling in the corners of her eyes.

"We caused such a big fuss, but they didn't hear anything at all." Wen Qing murmured.

Lu Nange: "If they are ordinary survivors, or low-level psychics... then we can only search the bases one by one.

Sister Wen Qing, as long as we haven't found it yet, there's still hope... We will always be by your side."

......

The next day, in the dim light of dawn, the heavy metal door of Flame Heart Center opened on time, welcoming the survivors who came from all directions.

Everything in the market is in perfect order, the stalls are filled with a dazzling array of goods, and patrol members are making their rounds with sharp eyes...

Lu Nange and his group sat in the exclusive rest area behind the settlement area.

Unlike the lazy and casual atmosphere of yesterday, today everyone's eyes were cast towards the entrance intentionally or unintentionally, and the air was filled with an imperceptible sense of anticipation.

Batch after batch of superpowers came in, traded, and left...

Time passed quietly as I waited. The crystal core boxes in the settlement area and the barter storage baskets gradually filled up, but I still didn't see the expected figure.

He Zhuo tapped his thigh with his fingers anxiously. Gu Wan couldn't help but look at her watch for the nth time - it was already past eleven o'clock.
