Chapter 152 Two Months

The four rested for a night, and when they woke up the next day, they went to the cafeteria together for a meal.

Aside from Xiao Zhao, this was the first time Han Shuo and the other two had been here.

Now that everyone has more supplies, they no longer need to eat those nutritionally deficient foods every day.

Coming here is a way to have a good meal, and also to celebrate the three of us returning safely from outside.

There weren't many people in the cafeteria, probably because it wasn't mealtime. Xiao Zhao pushed Han Shuo to a secluded corner to sit down.

Fatty and Li Shurou went to get food. Not long after they left, Han Shuo saw them carrying the food and quickly ran back with joy on his face.

"Han Shuo, Han Shuo, guess who I saw?" the fat man shouted excitedly.

"Speak quickly."

"Chen Hai, Uncle Hai, haha, he really came, and he's cooking right here now."

"real?"

Hearing this news, Han Shuo was also very happy. He didn't expect that Chen Hai would actually follow their guidance and risk coming here.

"Yes, Shurou and I chatted briefly with Uncle Hai. Did you forget? He said before that he was a chef. I didn't expect him to find a job here that isn't too hard."

"Come on, hurry up and push me over there to take a look."

Han Shuo said excitedly.

"Don't rush, let's eat first. Uncle Hai is still busy. He said he'll come to find you when he's done," Li Shurou said with a smile.

"Okay, fine."

Now that Chen Hai was safe and sound, Han Shuo was relieved and no longer worried.

The four of them quickly began to eat, and in no time, the table full of food was completely devoured.

"Did Uncle Hai make all of this? His cooking is really good, it tastes delicious."

Han Shuo couldn't help but sigh. Just as he finished speaking, he saw a familiar, kind-looking uncle walking briskly towards him from afar.

"Young man Han Shuo, what happened to you? How did you get such a serious injury?"

As soon as Chen Hai arrived, he saw Han Shuo sitting in a wheelchair.

"It's okay if you encounter a little accident outside. Just rest and recuperate for a while."

Han Shuo responded politely, and then the group sat down together to catch up.

Most of his words were naturally Chen Hai's constant expressions of gratitude to Han Shuo and the others.

Everyone knows what's going on outside, so finding such a safe place is really not easy.

During this time, Han Shuo also learned that not only did Chen Hai arrive safely at the underground research institute, but the other survivors in the sewers also followed Chen Hai there.

The underground research institute's leaders naturally provided shelter to these suddenly arrived survivors.

It's very large here. Although the number of people is increasing, there is still plenty of space left.

After all, there aren't many people left alive, and as time goes on, the situation outside will only get worse.

We are all human beings; we can save as many as we can in the underground research institute.

...

Han Shuo also learned that Chen Hai was directly assigned to work in the cafeteria because of his superb cooking skills.

Compared to other survivors, this made things a bit easier for him.

Of course, all of this was predicated on the fact that Chen Hai encountered Han Shuo and others that day.

Without them, Chen Hai would probably have died out there long ago.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Han Shuo prepared to leave.

"Alright, Uncle Hai, it's good that you're safe. We'll head back now. We'll see each other plenty of time in the future, so we won't bother you any longer, since you still have work to do here."

Chen Hai quickly stood up and spoke.

"Alright, alright, remember to come visit me often. I don't know anyone here. Those familiar faces from the sewers have been reassigned to other places."

Perhaps this is the loneliness of a middle-aged man.

In the current situation, the few people who are truly good to him are probably just these few in front of him.

"Oh, wait for me a moment." After saying that, Chen Hai turned around and quickly ran inside.

Not long after, Han Shuo saw Chen Hai running back with a package in his hands.

"Kids, here are some big chicken drumsticks. Take them home and eat them secretly."

As Chen Hai spoke, he stuffed the package into Han Shuo's arms.

"This...this isn't in accordance with the rules. Food is already scarce, and if someone finds out, it will cause you trouble."

"Yes, Uncle Hai, you don't need to do that."

...

Han Shuo and the others hurriedly declined.

"It's alright. I cooked the food. Whether there's more or less is up to me. This little bit is far from enough to repay your kindness."

In the end, Han Shuo couldn't refuse his enthusiasm and accepted it.

And so, the days passed one by one.

The four of them would visit Chen Hai every few days, and each time before they left, Chen Hai would give them extra food.

...

Since Han Shuo and the others moved to their new residence, Qin Hongling has been unable to carry out her schemes.

After all, living alone is really safe, with two guard teams on duty 24 hours a day.

This is because, apart from a few survivors, most of the people in power also live here.

Dr. Lin, who performed the gene modification on Han Shuo that day, lived across the hall from them.

Of course, this is something Han Shuo only noticed after he moved in.

On ordinary days, Li Shurou would visit Dr. Lin's home from time to time.

If there's one thing she likes and excels at, it's saving lives.

So, Li Shurou's second favorite thing to do is study.

She enjoys learning all sorts of knowledge, which is evident from her previous love of reading.

Dr. Lin also took a great liking to this studious child.

No matter what questions Li Shurou had, Dr. Lin would patiently and meticulously explain them to her...

In Han Shuo's eyes, this was an unexpected surprise.

Fatty and Xiao Zhao, on the other hand, went out to fool around every day.

As time went by, Xiao Zhao's leg injury was completely healed. Since he was still resting, he did not need to do patrol work like the other guards.

Therefore, the two of them would spar and fight from time to time.

However, the ending was different from before. The fat man had become a genetically engineered human, and his combat power had increased dramatically. Naturally, Xiao Zhao was no match for him.

However, Xiao Zhao was a special forces soldier before, and with his rich experience, he was still able to cause a lot of trouble for the fat man.

Han Shuo's injuries were too severe, so he could only stay in his room and rest.

To his surprise, Qin Hongling hadn't gone out recently.

Han Shuo knew without even thinking that she had her own methods.

I learned through rumors that Qin Hongling had been selling her body to earn food.

This made Han Shuo even more worried. He felt that this opponent was even more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.

Han Shuo has always believed that if we set aside the element of luck, to see if a person is truly capable, we should look at how high their potential is, and how low their potential is.

Even in the apocalypse, Han Shuo and the others still care about certain things.

Qin Hongling, on the other hand, is different. She can completely abandon all her dignity and use any means necessary to get whatever she wants.

This kind of enemy is the most terrifying.

...

Before he knew it, two months had passed, and Han Shuo's injuries had almost completely healed.

Meanwhile, Qingyu and the others had already returned to the underground research institute.

During this period, everything was peaceful and uneventful.
