Qiao He nodded slightly. They were still acting inside because Qiao He realized that the people outside hadn't actually left. They were probably keeping them here to see if they really wanted to be taken in, rather than invading this territory.

All survivors who want to enter this place must go through this procedure; otherwise, they will not be allowed in but will be driven out directly.

So, Qiao He and Shen Huai continued their act here.

After an hour, Li Zong said anxiously, "Could it be... that we'll really be locked up here forever? What are we going to do? I'm starving to death..."

Li Zong's fear was genuine, because among everyone present, he was the weakest, only able to track Ye Hong's location and not very aggressive. Of course, before finding Ye Hong, he wasn't worried that Qiao He would leave him here and take the others away.

Li Zong simply lacked confidence; the fear and anxiety he displayed were genuine.

Qiao He sighed helplessly and said, "Yes... we have to think of a way... we can't stay locked up here forever."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the sound of the door opening came from outside.

The captain, leading a few people, said to them against the light, "Sorry to keep you waiting. You can come out now. The two with superpowers, come with me. The rest of you, follow him."

The captain pointed to the man standing next to him and then led Qiao He and Bo Shiwu away.

Shen Huai glanced worriedly at Qiao He's retreating figure, then asked the man leading the group curiously, "Brother, where are we going in a bit?"

The person leading the group had a blank expression and looked very serious. He said in a deep voice, "Just follow me, don't ask so many questions."

Shen Huai fell silent. Was there no way to find out any information?

Li Zong beamed, "Boss, we're new here and don't know anything. Is it really true that you get food as long as you work? We're all starving. If it weren't for those two superhumans helping us along the way, we wouldn't have made it this far..."

The man leading the group's expression changed, and the next moment he pressed the dark muzzle of a gun against Li Zong's forehead.

The atmosphere shifted abruptly, and Shen Huai broke out in a cold sweat. He was genuinely afraid that the man would shoot Li Zong.

But soon everyone realized that the person leading the team was just trying to scare Li Zong.

"I told you, follow me, why ask so many questions?"

Li Zong's expression was extremely ugly, but he still forced a smile and said, "Sorry, sorry, we won't say anything more."

They then quietly followed the man into a dilapidated factory.

The man leading the team stood at the door and pushed it open. "Come in. This is where you work. Work hard and don't even think about slacking off."

Shen Huai thought to himself: There's a factory? What will I do inside? Is it similar to the assembly line factories before the apocalypse?

Then they were sent inside, but Shen Huai clearly saw that the moment they entered, the leader's lips curled up slightly, revealing a complicated smile, as if he was mocking them, but also carrying a hint of relief and regret.

Shen Huai frowned slightly. What did that mean?

But the next second, the huge iron door slammed shut with a loud bang.

Shen Huai felt a chill run down his spine; he sensed a powerful energy.

strangeness?

Why didn't I notice it before I came in? I felt it after I came in, but the mysterious power disappeared inexplicably the next moment.

Shen Huai heard someone say, "Name, age, come over and register."

When they came to their senses, an ordinary-looking woman was sitting inside the door. She took out paper and pen and asked them to write down their names, ages, genders, and other information.

Li Zong glanced at Shen Huai, his eyes seeming to ask, "Should we fill this out? But if we don't, won't we be exposed?"

Shen Huai stepped forward and said with a smile, "Okay, sister, I'll fill it out right away."

Then Shen Huai filled in a fake name and a random age. He hasn't figured out what abilities the superhumans under Qiao Yimu have yet, so he can't reveal his true identity.

Otherwise, Qiao He and Bo Shiwu would definitely be affected.

After that, Li Zong and Bai Tiantian also went over to fill out the forms.

Although the children had never filled out the forms and were not very good at writing, they had seen Qiao He write their names.

So the little ones nervously wrote their names, except they changed "Qiao" to "Lin".

Since we can't use Qiao He's Qiao, let's use Grandma's Lin for now.

The ages were just randomly written by Shen Huai and the others. Luckily, the kids know roughly how old humans are, otherwise they would definitely have been exposed by now.

After everything was filled in, the woman pointed inside and said, "Go forward, to the end and then go in. Work hard, don't be lazy! Got it?"

Shen Huai replied, "I'll remember that, sister! Thank you!"

They then walked forward, but when they reached the dark door, Shen Huai stopped in his tracks.

An employee asked him, "What are you doing? Aren't you going in?"

Shen Huai quickly said, "Go in! We'll definitely go in."

The veteran employees led Shen Huai and the others into the workshop. It looked unusually ordinary, just like the assembly line factory before the apocalypse, except that they were responsible for producing daily necessities here.

Very ordinary tissues, toothpaste, toothbrush, towels, etc...

They were assigned to the toothbrush production line, which was part of a large assembly line.

Upon arrival, the veteran employee gave them a quick demonstration and said, "Alright, hurry up and get to work. Don't just stand around. If the team leader sees you doing this, you'll be in for a rough time!"

Shen Huai twitched his lips. They were actually going to do assembly line work here.

To be honest, Shen Huai had never worked in a factory before, but now it seemed that this job was far too simple; even a fool could learn it.

However, manpower is indeed needed. Civilization has seriously regressed. Let alone machines replacing human labor, we don't even have high-end equipment.

Most of it still requires manual labor to complete.

So everyone had no choice but to obediently stay here and work.

The kids are still wondering what's going on with Qiao He...

At this time, Qiao He was assigned to the quarry, which was said to have resources such as coal and fuel oil, so manpower was needed.

Qiao He was strong, so he was naturally assigned here. Because he was a superhuman, he didn't have to do any low-level work, but most of the time he couldn't stop working.

In addition, thin fog was also assigned here.

Qiao He breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, their abilities weren't too special. If they were really abstract or special, they would have been delivered to Qiao Yimu long ago.
