On the tenth day of the apocalypse, Su Keke was forcibly driven out of her home by her adoptive parents and sister. The reason was to reduce one person's consumption of supplies, even though Su...
"I think I heard someone calling us!"
After wrapping Shi Huan with gauze, Lu Mei pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
"Aunt Lu, do you think it could be Meng Yi and the others?" Shi Huan stood up excitedly and looked around despite feeling a little dizzy.
"Look! Is there a light over there?" Chen Da pointed the direction to the two people with a flashlight. Under the dark sky, there was indeed a light coming towards them.
"Is there anyone coming?"
The three of them widened their eyes, watching the light slowly getting closer.
"Aunt Lu...Uncle Chen...Sister Shi Huan..."
"I finally found you guys?"
Su Keke's voice shocked Lu Mei and the other two, but they immediately felt something was wrong. Why would Su Keke come to this ruin alone?
Did she also know about Chen Li and Meng Yi? Did she come here so late to help find someone?
"Coco! Why are you here alone?"
Lu Mei hurried over with a flashlight. She saw Su Keke holding a lamp and fully armed. It looked like he was here to look for someone just like them.
"I'm here to look for you! Chen Li and Meng Yi have been found, and Grandma Qiao has already sent them to the temporary hospital at the base. It's very dangerous here, we have to leave quickly!"
When Lu Mei and the other two heard Su Keke say that Chen Li and Meng Yi had been sent to the base hospital, they suddenly became excited.
Especially Shi Huan, who strode towards Su Keke without even stepping firmly. If Su Keke hadn't been quick to help her, her head, which had just been bandaged, would have hit the brick again.
"How are they? Are they in danger? Where did you find them?"
When Su Keke was asked this by Shi Huan, her mind was a little confused for a moment.
She was sent to the hospital by Grandma Qiao halfway through the journey. Su Keke didn't know the specific situation or how serious it was.
Where did you find it? How should you explain this? You can't just say you saw it on the roadside like you did to Station Master Lu, right? Su Keke remembered that Meng Yi called her "Keke" when he was rescued!
"They were trapped under more than three meters of wasteland. They were a little dehydrated when they were rescued. We have to wait for a doctor to check their condition to know the exact situation."
Su Keke's words were rather vague. Fortunately, the three of them focused their attention on the injured Chen Li and Meng Yi, and they did not ask any further questions. Instead, they urged Su Keke to hurry back.
"You haven't had dinner yet! I have some bread in my bag. You can eat some to fill your stomach while walking. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk!"
Su Keke hung the solar lamp in her hand around her neck and took out bread and mineral water from her backpack for the three of them.
After finally relaxing a little, Lu Mei and the other two actually felt a little hungry and their mouths were very dry.
The first thing the three of them did was to grab the bottles of mineral water and gulp them down. Only after they had drunk enough water did they start to eat the bread in big mouthfuls.
Su Keke led the three of them back along the route marked by the capsule house. Lu Mei and the other two were eager to go home, and after eating, they walked faster than Su Keke.
"Coco! Did we take the wrong road? I remember we didn't come this way!"
Chen Da walked to Su Keke, pointed at the pile of earth in front and spoke to Su Keke anxiously.
"Uncle Chen! My sense of direction is always good. Don't worry, I will definitely not lead you into any trouble."
Su Keke thought that she was following the instructions in the capsule house, so the route must be different from the one they took when they came.
The route planned by the capsule house should take less time than returning by the original route.
After hearing what Su Keke said, Chen Da didn't say anything else. They were still very convinced by what Su Keke said.
The three of them searched for several hours but couldn't find Chen Li and the others. Su Keke and Grandma Qiao rescued them right away, which shows that they are very capable.
Later, facts proved that they were right to follow Su Keke.
It took them about an hour to get out of the area of the earthquake collapse. When they walked a little further, they saw the electric tricycle driven by Lu Mei and the other two parked in front of them.
Chen Da put the medicine box and shovel on the electric tricycle, squinted his eyes and looked around. It was pitch black everywhere, and it seemed that there were no vehicles. "Keke! Did you drive here? If not, just come back with us on the electric tricycle."
Chen Da looked at Su Keke and said.
"My car should be a little ahead! I'll go check it out!"
Su Keke walked forward holding the lamp by herself until Lu Mei and the others could no longer see her, then she drove out of the space in a seven-seater commercial vehicle.
"Why is this kid running so fast? It's so dark ahead. Lao Chen, let's get in the car and follow to see if anything goes wrong!"
Lu Mei helped Shi Huan onto the electric tricycle and urged Chen Da to drive quickly. But their electric tricycle ran out of power at this time!
"Oh no! The car is out of battery!" Chen Da looked at the red 0 on the dashboard and was grabbing his hair in frustration.
"Ah... why is there no electricity at this time!" Lu Mei got out of the back truck with a whoosh, and frowned as she looked at the flashing red numbers on the dashboard.
At this time, Su Keke's car lights were like a strong beam of sunlight, making it impossible for Lu Mei and Chen Da to open their eyes.
"Uncle Chen, what's going on? Is there something wrong with your car?"
Su Keke saw the two men staring at the dashboard and sighing, so she quickly got out of the car and asked.
"The car is out of battery! I was in such a hurry to go out today that I didn't pay attention to whether the battery is enough to go back and forth!" Chen Da sighed.
"Oh! That's easy. You can just take my car back!" Su Keke said with a smile.
"Then what should we do with this electric tricycle?"
Lu Mei was afraid that the tricycle would be pushed away by someone tomorrow if she left it here. It was much more convenient to have a car at home now. Not to mention the electric tricycle, even ordinary pedal tricycles are very popular.
"Aunt Lu, don't worry! I'll think of a solution!"
Su Keke saw that Lu Mei was afraid that the car would be lost if parked here, so she ran to the trunk of her own car to look for it, and actually found a tow rope.
After tinkering with it for a few minutes, Chen Da and Su Keke finally connected the two cars with a tow rope.
The three of them got into Su Keke's business car, with the electric tricycle swaying along the way as it was dragged behind. Chen Da was afraid that the electric tricycle would suddenly fall off, so he sat in the last seat and stared at it.
"Keke! How did you know we went out to look for someone?" Lu Mei, who was sitting behind the driver's seat, suddenly thought of this question.
"Oh... I went to Building 1 to look for you first, but I found that you were not at home. It was so late and no one was there. I thought that you must have known that Chen Li and the others were in trouble, so you went out to look for them in a hurry."
When Lu Mei suddenly asked this question, Su Keke was so anxious that she started to make up a story, saying that she had gone to Building 1 to look for them, but it was obvious that she saw them in the capsule house.
"You are such a brave kid. You dared to go to such a dangerous place to look for us by yourself. We are lucky this time. We actually ran into him. If we hadn't, it would have been so dangerous for a girl like you to be in the ruins at night! I am scared just thinking about it!"
Lu Mei put her head close to the driver's seat and talked a lot to Su Keke like a worried old mother.
Su Keke could only promise her again and again that she would never do that again.
