In a zombie apocalypse, while survivors and zombies fought tooth and nail, Shu Lan hid in a garbage dump, using the stench to mask human scent and evade zombies. There, she gave birth to her human ...
Chapter 106 Weird.
After Shu Maomao got off, he turned around and opened his arms towards the car door, as if to welcome the person behind him.
The truck seat was high. A young woman, wearing a white woolen hat and wrapped up thickly, leaned half of her body out and said with a smile, "Baby, your arms are too short. Mommy can't reach you."
The little boy said "Oh" calmly. There was still a light rain in the sky. He took his hands back and hugged his head.
Ji Lan could hardly take her eyes off the child, her thoughts flooded with the words "so cute".
Her cheeks are chubby because of her arms. She is pretty and obedient...
The woman's lazy and sarcastic voice sounded again: "I'm so lucky to have such tactless subordinates like you. Come over and help me! You don't even know how to open an umbrella!"
"Commander is coming!"
A group of men rushed forward to greet him, and Ji Lan also came back to his senses from his daze.
This is Qin Xiaoshuang. Just like her voice sounds, she is a young girl.
Qin Xiaoshuang’s ability must be very powerful to be able to make so many people obey!
Shu Lan got out of the car with the help of a tall man. Zhong Mei quickly explained to her the new arrivals at the base. Shu Lan glanced at the extra people, nodded, and said, "The things in the car are not important. We're all hungry. Let's go eat first."
Ji Xin patted Ji Lan on the shoulder. Ji Lan quickly walked through the crowd, came to Shu Lan, who was the center of attention, and took the initiative to introduce herself.
"Hello, Commander Qin, my name is Ji Lan."
Shu Lan held her hand and shook it: "Which Lan?"
“Lan, orchid.”
“Oh~~”
Ji Xin also came over and flattered, "This is my cousin. Hehe, Commander, isn't that a coincidence?"
Shu Lan smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I heard there are 10,000 more people. I have to go to the cafeteria and distribute more ingredients, otherwise there won't be enough food."
Ji Lan's nose felt sore. No matter whether it was Qin Xiaoshuang or her subordinates, the first thing they thought of when they heard that there were more people was how to arrange their food and accommodation. They put aside their intrigues and worked together to overcome the difficulties. This was what she imagined a human base should look like.
She suppressed her emotion and said, "We brought cooking utensils and can help you. You can always use them if you need us."
"Then tell them to bring their kitchen utensils to the cafeteria. Don't crowd in here. The clothes and other things are in the space. We'll distribute them after dinner."
The cafeteria was some distance away from the main gate, and Shu Lan was never too lazy to walk. Shu Maomao took out their exclusive car from the space, and the crowd automatically made way for her.
Ji Lan didn't even see where the electric scooter came from before the mother and son rode on it skillfully and waved happily, "See you in the cafeteria later~"
Ji Lan stared blankly at the person walking away: "Why is she..."
Ji Xin next to him asked, "What?"
"So easy to talk to? Don't you need to set some rules for me?"
Ji Xin said: "Don't worry, what is coming will eventually come."
Ji Lan caught Ji Xin as he was about to leave. Normally, she didn't like gossiping, but today she had too many questions to ask: "Is that child the commander's son?"
"Yes, we call him Master Mao Mao."
"How old is he?"
"Five to eight years old. Only the commander knows."
Ji Lan sighed, "The child is so cute."
Ji Xin looked at her with a strange expression. Not only Ji Xin, but everyone who passed by and heard this sentence turned around and looked at her with a strange expression, as if she had said something shocking.
Ji Lan didn't know what to say and asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing, hurry up and grab your bowls and chopsticks. You'll have to wait in line all night for dinner."
The topic was skipped over, but Ji Lan always remembered the strange reactions of this group of people.
Since the afternoon, the people at this base have been looking at them with all kinds of incomprehensible looks while helping them.
Hesitant to speak, meaningful, and gloating.
Shouldn't the survivors they just met be more curious or wary?
It was as if there was a huge secret hidden here, and the local residents, including her cousin, had no intention of telling anyone, and were all waiting to watch the fun.
Ji Lan frowned. She sensed something was wrong, but since she was already here, she couldn't leave immediately. She could only be nervous, observing and carefully interacting with the people here.
There were indeed eggs in the dinner. The aroma of fried eggs with tender pumpkin and rice almost brought tears to the eyes of the people from District 15 who had traveled all the way.
Ji Lan, on the other hand, felt very heavy when eating.
Everything District 9 said on the radio channel was not a dream, but the truth, but no one believed it.
After experiencing the era of food looting, everyone has become accustomed to living a tight life, and no one thinks that anyone would be generous enough to donate the inventory of their own space to the group.
Ji Lan dared to guarantee that the stronger people in District 15 would definitely open the warehouse after she left and take all the materials that everyone had worked hard to collect and cultivate for themselves.
In comparison, District 9 was too good to be true. She couldn't help but start to wonder if there was some deadly trap waiting for her. Would this meal be their last?
No! Ji Lan quickly rejected her wild thoughts. Although this place was very strange, her relatives were here, and Ji Xin would definitely not harm her!
There was a small, bright lamp in the corner of the crowded cafeteria, and the folding table under the lamp was the seat reserved for the commander of District 9.
Shu Lan poured the food into a basin, mixed it well, and scooped out a small bowl. She handed the rest to Shu Maomao and asked, "How many people have been taken in now?"
Shu Maomao scooped up the food with a spoon, and the food piled up into a small mountain. Before he bit the top of the mountain, he quickly said a number: "Thirty-seven thousand one hundred and thirty-two."
"That still leaves 13,000 people short."
Shu Lan sighed and thought, before the zombies appeared, the population was counted in the billions, and now it is very difficult to gather 50,000 people.
Unfortunately, Shu Maomao did not hear Dr. Zhao's voice among the more than 10,000 new arrivals, and the various revenge plans that Shu Lan had carefully planned while collecting supplies outside also fell through.
Shu Maomao put down the food bowl and said, "Mommy, she's always looking at me."
"who?"
Shu Maomao pointed in a direction. Shu Lan turned around and looked in that direction, but her view was blocked by the moving crowd.
"The woman named Ji Lan."
Shu Lan pondered, "Could it be that Ji Xin revealed something..."
Ji Xin, who was sitting opposite Ji Lan, suddenly felt his nose itchy. He turned his head and sneezed, shivering: "Sorry, I think I have a cold."
Ji Lan took off the blanket that had been wrapped around her body and wanted to return it to him, but he refused: "No, I'm going to find Meimei. She has healing powers. If you feel unwell, you can also go to her. She is a very nice person."
Ji Lan lowered her eyelashes, feeling depressed.
All the healing people in District 15 followed Jing Hongyu, and none of them stayed for her. Some people caught minor illnesses like colds and headaches on the way, but they just endured them.
After the meal, everyone left the cafeteria one after another. Ji Lan followed the instructions and called all the psychics to make themselves familiar to the new commander.
Shu Lan quietly observed Ji Lan's expression. Although she could see Ji Lan's nervousness and restraint, she did not resist and waited quietly for her to speak.
Ji Xin didn’t say?
Then why does this woman keep peeking at her son?
