When Huo Sijin arrived, Gu Mobai was leading his men in a search.

"Strange, in such a small place, where could that woman possibly escape to?"

Gu Mobai's subordinates looked on with puzzlement as they examined the dilapidated building.

The small building had long been ransacked by people searching for supplies; it was completely empty and there was no way to hide anyone.

Gu Mobai was even more surprised. He clearly saw Qin Su run to the corner, but when he chased after her, she was gone.

Could this person possibly become invisible?

Huo Sijin understood; it seemed her little apprentice had already hidden in the spatial dimension.

Being chased by these scumbags, my little apprentice must be terrified. As his master, I have to stand up for him!

"You people will pay the price for attacking my little apprentice while I was away!"

Huo Sijin's icy tone made Gu Mo's face turn pale with fright.

"You, you, how did you get back?"

So many people, yet none of them managed to kill this man!

Huo Sijin narrowed her eyes: "So you're plotting on both ends, stealing the plant growth accelerator on one hand and hunting down my little apprentice on the other?"

It seems that both crimes will be punished concurrently!

Having experienced a ruptured tendon once, Gu Mobai almost collapsed when he was swept by his sharp gaze.

This man is too powerful; so many people are no match for him. With a flash of his eyes, he quickly hid behind those people.

"Quick, stop him!"

After saying that, he turned and ran, but as soon as he got outside, he was intercepted by Li Tang, who had finally arrived.

Li Tang immediately swung his broadsword and slashed!

Gu Mobai was so frightened that he jumped into the water and struggled to escape.

"Brothers, kill him!"

This kind of scum is a menace if left alive!

Underwater, Gu Mobai swam forward with all his might. He used to be a member of the national swimming team and was a fast swimmer. At this moment, he swam forward even more desperately, and even swam into the alleys to shake off the speedboat.

"Damn it, that kid got away."

Li Tang gritted his teeth, determined to kill that scumbag once the deal with the municipality was over.

Huo Sijin quickly killed those who were surrounding and killing him, and looked in the direction Gu Mobai left with a cold gaze.

Qin Su could hear the sounds outside even while hiding in the space.

However, she couldn't see outside from inside the space, and she didn't know if she would be discovered if she went out like this.

Once the noise outside subsided, she cautiously emerged from the space.

There's no one outside!

"Great!" she breathed a sigh of relief and went to find her people with peace of mind.

Just as I turned the corner, I saw Huo Sijin rushing over.

You're injured!

Huo Sijin's eyes narrowed, and he reached out to touch her swollen face.

Just as he was about to touch her, he quickly withdrew his hand, took out some ointment from his backpack, and gently applied it to her.

He lowered his head slightly, his dark eyes intently fixed on her face, his hands gently stroking her skin as if protecting a rare treasure.

"Master, I can do it myself!"

Qin Su felt that if this continued, her heart would jump out of her chest.

"You can't see it yourself."

"It'll be ready soon, honey."

Thump thump thump...

Qin Su's heart pounded like thunder, and she silently warned herself.

Don't be fooled by beauty!

However, her face quietly turned red.

Li Tang entered just in time to witness this scene, and quickly covered his eyes and backed away.

But there were people behind him, and when he suddenly turned around, he bumped into them.

Ouch...

After a period of chaos, all the brothers' eyes turned to the master and his apprentice.

"The doctor is applying medicine to me," Qin Su explained.

Mmm!

Everyone agreed in unison. Hehe, they all knew the young lady was shy.

"Ahem, Miss, we were ambushed just now and missed the trading time. Should we still go to the city hall?"

Qin Su glanced outside; it was already dark long ago due to the torrential rain.

If it's dangerous enough during the day, it's even more dangerous at night.

But it's not easy to come out, especially now that news of the plant growth promoter has spread. If it's not delivered to the city immediately, the resort might be in danger.

"go!"

Once back on the assault boat, the group quickened their pace.

Perhaps the previous battle was enough to deter them, because no one came to rob them afterward.

About two kilometers from the city, a fleet of speedboats came towards us.

Upon seeing them, they slowed down, and the team leader asked excitedly.

"Is that Miss Qin Su?"

Upon receiving news that Qin Su had been attacked, they immediately sent people to provide support.

They heard that the casualties on the battlefield were heavy, and they were really afraid that they were too late.

"yes!"

Upon hearing the affirmative answer, he was so overjoyed that he burst into tears.

"I'll take you to see the mayor right away!"

After that, with the municipal team protecting them, nothing else happened.

Qin Su was taken to the mayor's office, where the mayor was busy.

After the disaster struck, there were food shortages, manpower shortages, poor sanitation, and a loss of humanity...

As mayor, he had to do everything he could to ensure food security and maintain stability, keeping him extremely busy.

Before the apocalypse, Qin Su had seen the mayor on the news; he had black hair and a handsome face, and could be considered one of the best middle-aged men.

However, at this moment, his hair was gray and his face was tired. But the determination in his eyes was particularly moving.

"Hello, you must be Miss Qin Su. Your uncle, Director Liu, has already told me about the plant growth promoter. On behalf of the people of the city, no, the whole country, I thank you for your research."

The mayor was moved. This was not just a research result; these were lives at stake.

As he spoke, he had someone bring over the prepared rewards.

"Miss Qin, the city government can only offer this much given the current conditions. But don't worry, I'll remember your contribution. If the crops can be successfully grown, I'll give you ten percent!"

Qin Su was deeply moved when she met such a mayor who truly cared for the people.

It turns out that not everyone in the apocalypse is so greedy and selfish.

For the sake of the mayor, she might as well be generous this once.

After all, food can be grown in both the resort and the space, so she doesn't lack food.

"In times of great calamity, we were able to overcome it by working together in the same boat."

"Currently, municipal supplies are limited, so these rewards can be noted down and given out later when the situation improves."

The mayor was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears. Miss Qin's "I remember" meant he could hold on for a little longer!

"I only have one request!"

"you say."

He's such a good comrade; as long as the request isn't excessive, he'll definitely agree.

"No matter what happens in the future, we cannot ask the resort to do anything!"

Resorts aren't afraid of danger, but an extra layer of protection would be even better.

"Okay, I promise you!"

The mayor immediately made the decision: they had brought such an important item, and they only had this one request; it was imperative to agree.

It was already dark outside.

"Miss Qin, why don't you stay here tonight?"

After dark, besides the flood, there are all sorts of dangers outside.

Qin Su frowned. The sky tonight seemed unusually dark, with an eerie and sinister atmosphere everywhere.

Suddenly, she remembered that around this time in her previous life, something big seemed to have happened in the city!
