As darkness fell, Bai Xizhu and the others finally arrived at the safe base.
Leng Yebai squatted beside the bus, wiping the bicycle with a rag.
Bai Yifan ate voraciously, practically burying his head in the bowl.
"So, what did you gain from this trip?"
Bai Anhai decided to become a loving father and listen carefully to the children's voices.
"That's great, I even took the lost child home." Bai Yifan said with a hint of pride.
He felt very capable, that he could even help the future generations of his country.
"What else did you do?" Bai Anhai asked again.
"I was taken away by the panda after noon and didn't do anything else." Bai Yifan pouted and buried his head in his food bowl to eat again.
Slurp slurp.
I wish I could eat the whole bowl!
She's not nearly as clean and quiet as the girl.
Bai Anhai sighed, realizing that he couldn't be blamed for favoring women over men; it was mainly a matter of personal taste.
If Bai Yifan had a daughter, he would beat her three times a day!
"Wow, Xiao Fan can even save people now!" Liu Jing praised him politely.
"That's right."
Bai Yifan buried his head in the rice bowl, eating while showing off.
Nothing can delay eating.
Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.
Bai Anhai sighed, looking at Bai Yifan's smug expression.
Well, at least the child isn't too stupid; he knows to come home for dinner at night, so I can still keep him.
We can't ask for too much.
If one account is ruined, you can always use another one!
As night fell and the Bai family prepared to go to sleep, someone arrived.
It was Captain Zhou who arrived.
Captain Zhou nodded slightly to the three ladies of the Bai family in a gentlemanly manner before speaking gently.
"Sorry to disturb your rest. Tomorrow, the base is planning to send people to explore coal mines in the nearby mountains. Would you be interested in joining this mission?"
Captain Zhou spoke very politely, looking at Bai Yifan with a gentle expression.
"...Huh?" Bai Yifan was stunned for a moment.
He's the weakest in his family, so why would he want to join Captain Zhou's team?
Captain Zhou scratched his head sheepishly, "This mission was taken on by me and a small team of 'Iron Ladies' from the base. None of us are metal-type ability users, and we're still short a few spots for this mission. In the base, your metal-type ability is among the best, you're considered a top-tier metal-type ability user, so..."
The task of exploring coal mines is dangerous, but the rewards are also very high.
A large reward for a task indicates that the task is difficult, and in this case, many people will team up to complete the task together.
Captain Zhou recognized the Bai family's bus and knew that it was enhanced by Bai Yifan, so he was convinced that Bai Yifan was a big shot.
Because apart from Grandpa Wang, only the metal reinforced by Bai Yifan is the hardest.
Don't ask why he didn't team up with Grandpa Wang; he couldn't handle Grandpa Wang's madness.
Bai Yifan subconsciously turned his head to look at Bai Xizhu, waiting for her to make a decision.
"Okay, three of us will go."
Bai Xizhu nodded, pointed to herself, Leng Yebai, and Bai Yifan.
Bai Anhai originally wanted to go too!
Seeing that her daughter had already spoken, she said nothing more.
Let's go!
His daughter is even more capable than him, so he has nothing to worry about.
Bai Xizhu also knew about the nearby mine, which contained a large amount of coal. In the apocalypse, having a mine was equivalent to having control over the economy.
The Fire Phoenix Security Base became a large and powerful security base precisely because it controlled that mine.
What attracted Bai Xizhu the most was not the mine itself, but a certain mutated plant inside it.
It is said that Captain Zhu of the Fire Phoenix Security Base became a top-notch wood-type ability user because he found a mysterious mutated plant in the mine.
Rumor has it that everyone who has seen this plant has died.
Captain Zhu is currently only a high-level wood-type ability user, not yet a local tyrant.
He acquired the mysterious mutated plant after the Fire Phoenix Security Base acquired a mine, and the mutated plant is still inside that mine.
Bai Xizhu lowered her eyes slightly, thinking of the miniature camera in the mission reception hall.
Captain Zhu is in charge of all the missions, so why would he secretly observe the superhumans?
Even if you're going to install cameras, it's perfectly acceptable to install them openly and honestly.
Bai Xizhu had no evidence, but she intuitively felt that Captain Zhu was suspicious.
In short, let's go find that mutated plant first!
Even if we destroy the plant, we cannot let Captain Zhu get it.
This is a woman's intuition.
It's better to kill the innocent than to leave any hidden dangers.
It was only with great difficulty that her family was able to live so comfortably in the apocalypse, and Bai Xizhu would not allow anyone to have even the slightest possibility of harming her family.
"Is Miss Xiaozhu going too?" Captain Zhou asked, slightly surprised.
He didn't know that Bai Xizhu had superpowers; he only knew that Bai Yifan and Leng Yebai had superpowers, and that their superpowers were quite good.
A girl like Bai Xizhu, who looks gentle and quiet, should stay at home and enjoy good food, instead of enduring wind and rain like a rough man.
Girls should be protected.
"Is that not allowed?"
Bai Xizhu raised an eyebrow.
“It’s possible, but I’m worried that the conditions in the mine are too harsh, and it’s not suitable for girls to go,” Captain Zhou explained.
To be honest, he wasn't planning on taking this mission, but it was taken over by the newly formed Iron Lady squad in the base.
The Iron Lady Squad consists of seven girls, each wielding a kitchen knife. They are known for their valiant and capable nature, and they always return victorious from every mission.
