Chapter 219 Getting Lost



Look carefully at what's inside.

Everyone has their own guesses about this.

"Shouldn't we hurry up and chase after them?"

The captain smiled mysteriously: "It won't be so easy for them to get out."

"Captain, what are you saying?"

"You idiot!" Someone next to him jumped up and slapped the person who asked the question on the head. "You can't get out that way."

"I see, so this is called 'waiting in comfort to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out'?"

"That's right."

Several people expressed their agreement.

The captain assigned a team to guard outside the base.

Be ready to arrest people at any time.

Because the base was built on the only oasis within a hundred miles, they had to come back if they didn't want to die.

Old Hu announced that Lin You would be leaving the research institute for good.

Everyone was also asked to check their own data to see if any had been lost during the crisis.

Su Qiao only said, "That test subject was just a resemblance; it contained nothing inside."

Hearing Su Qiao say that, Lao Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I had guessed that Lin You would probably do something, I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Fortunately, there wasn't much content inside.

This time, Lin You's efforts were all in vain.

After the laboratory was tidied up.

Old Hu then went to submit a report.

He wants to explain everything about this matter clearly.

On the other side.

The car Lin You was in suddenly stalled.

"What happened?"

The driver said regretfully, "We're out of gas. I didn't check earlier; those bastards are really greedy."

Lin You frowned as she looked at the sky outside.

It was completely dark by then.

The clouds in the sky blocked out the stars.

The group got out of the car and looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Shouldn't we be heading to our own camp by now?"

"But when we escaped, we changed direction to avoid them."

Zhang San, who was in charge, had clearly forgotten his initial decision.

"Why don't you go back? They're not chasing us." After saying this, the captain looked in the direction they came from.

Those people must have known that the car couldn't go very far.

And in the end, we can only go in that direction.

Lin You looked at the group fighting amongst themselves and felt very dissatisfied.

"Stop arguing! Which way should we go now?"

"this……"

Driver Jia Er looked up at the sky.

Hesitantly pointed in a direction.

"How about we walk over there?"

"Who wants to listen to you? You don't even know the way. Who would trust you to lead the way now?"

Jia Er didn't dare to refute and shrank back.

In the end, Zhang San decided to head back.

Lin You was unconvinced.

The minority may submit to the majority.

She had no choice but to follow.

Lin Xiangxiang, with her small body, followed behind everyone.

No one considered her feelings.

Even Lin You didn't have it.

Lin Xiangxiang looked at Lin You with a hint of resentment, but in the end she still took her steps and followed.

The temperature difference between day and night is large here.

Several people were already shivering from the cold.

Not to mention Lin Xiangxiang.

She was just a little child.

For her, the temperature here felt like going from summer to winter.

Not to mention, it was all for the sake of realism from the beginning.

Lin You even changed her into a little dress.

Every inch of skin exposed now feels cold.

"Auntie..."

The faint sound dissipated in the wind.

Lin You was so focused on holding the box in her arms that she didn't have time to pay any attention to Lin Xiangxiang.

Lin Xiangxiang called out several more times.

In the end, it was the driver, Jia Er, who discovered it.

They picked up the child in the past.

He quickly walked to Lin You's side, "The child is calling you."

Lin You glanced at her impatiently. "Even her own mother doesn't care about her, so why should I? Right now, everyone's just trying to save their own lives. We can just throw this kind of kid away."

Jia Er was surprised that Lin You, who looked so refined, could say such harsh things.

He looked down at Lin Xiangxiang.

Seeing that she seemed to know nothing, he shook his head helplessly.

Her small hands were tightly wrapped around his shoulders.

Jia Er patted her hand.

They didn't put her down.

We've been walking for two hours now.

There are still no buildings in sight.

Everyone panicked.

We didn't drive very far just now, so why can't we get back?

"Keep going, I refuse to believe I can't get out of this little desert."

Jia Er originally wanted to offer some advice.

But he had no say in the matter.

Lin Xiangxiang looked at the sky and grabbed Jia Er's collar.

Pointing to the few stars that were visible.

"Going south is wrong, you need to go east."

Jia Er glanced at it and, sure enough, it was true.

But when he looked up, Zhang San and the others had already disappeared.

He hardened his heart and walked eastward.

After walking for who knows how long, we finally caught a glimpse of the buildings.

As for the others...

I was starving.

It was already daylight, but they still hadn't seen any buildings.

They could only rest where they were.

Lin You made an excuse to go to the restroom.

The combination to the box has been solved.

They took out the sphere inside.

The code, with its multiple layers, was not something she could decipher in a short time.

She took the sphere out and hid it in her clothes pocket.

Then I locked the box again.

She quickly rejoined the group.

When Zhang San was counting the number of people, he realized that Jia Er was missing.

That little one is gone too.

"Your child is lost, aren't you worried?"

“I’m just the child’s aunt. Her mother agreed to let me borrow the child. She knows how dangerous my job is. She should have expected the child to die. Besides, I can just pay her some money later.”

Lin You looked completely unconcerned.

Zhang San had long known that this woman was cold-blooded and ruthless, but he never expected her to be so cruel to someone related to him by blood.

I unconsciously became more vigilant.

He was already planning in his mind how to get the box over later.

Anyway, if it's really that powerful...

Even if Lin You doesn't go back, they can still take the boxes back to report.

Each of them had their own thoughts.

By noon, the group still hadn't found any buildings or water sources.

There weren't even any cacti.

Exhausted and thirsty, Zhang San and the others came up with an idea.

They have to change direction.

At the same time, Lin You, who is holding us back, also needs to be gotten rid of.

Because if it weren't for her, they wouldn't be so exhausted.

When she can't walk anymore, she asks these people to carry her.

They were already exhausted, and then they had to carry heavy loads; several of them couldn't hold on any longer.

Right now, Zhang San is the one with the best spirits.

So he said, "Everyone, let's rest where we are now."

As they spoke, the group sat down on the spot.

Lin You was disgusted, but there was nothing she could do.

We could only sit with them on the shady slope.

In a little while, when the sun reaches its highest point, there will be nowhere left to rest.

Having not slept all night, Lin You was already at her limit.

I got sleepy after a short while.

The sun gradually rose higher.

The light shone on her.

The burning heat quickly woke her up.

My head feels dizzy.

There was no one around.

The box is gone too.
