The old man walked unsteadily in one direction, his cloudy eyes fixed ahead, continuing his search for his only relative.
Bai Yifan glanced at the old man with a look of sympathy, his fingers tightening slightly.
You must improve your superpowers properly, so that you can protect your family.
"Meeting time! Meeting time! Everyone come to the yard for the meeting!"
The loudspeaker blared.
Everyone walked towards the yard of the wind power plant.
Captain Zhu and five police officers stood at the front, their faces solemn.
Grandpa Wang stood to the side, still half asleep, looking like he had just gotten out of bed.
"Yesterday, the monster attacked us, and more than a dozen of us lost our lives. In order to be prepared for a similar incident in the future, we will take turns on duty." Captain Zhu explained the duty rules with a serious expression.
There are seven teams in total, taking turns on duty, and adult men aged 20 to 50 must participate.
Everyone had just survived a close call, and no one had any objections.
It's all about living.
"Did you all understand?"
Captain Zhu asked the group with a serious expression.
"I understand!"
The men's distinctive, powerful voices rang out.
"Um, I have a problem!"
Grandpa Wang raised his hand timidly.
"What's the problem?" Captain Zhu asked gently.
They were able to escape S City thanks to Grandpa Wang driving the garbage truck. Captain Zhu could be serious with others, but he was always kind and gentle to Grandpa Wang.
"When were we attacked by monsters? How come I didn't know?"
Grandpa Wang looked puzzled.
He slept soundly in the driver's seat of the garbage truck last night and didn't hear a sound!
Everyone: ...
The old man has amazing sleep quality!
Yesterday, the Gu Diao almost turned the sky upside down, but the old man's sleep quality was not affected at all!
"Has anyone seen my Duoduo?" An elderly man carrying a plastic bag filled with steamed egg custard suddenly ran to the front. "If you see her, tell her it's time to eat! Come back quickly!"
Everyone looked at the old man with his wrinkled face and sighed.
It's been a whole night, it's very difficult to find now.
Grandpa Wang grabbed the pale-faced old man and asked anxiously, "Your child is missing?"
“Lost it…” The old man looked remorseful, and turbid tears streamed down his face.
"Then hurry up and look for him! What does your child look like?" Grandpa Wang slapped his thigh and immediately decided to help.
"She's so beautiful..."
The old man muttered a few words blankly, then began searching for his granddaughter in the neighborhood again.
"Her child was wearing a blue down jacket!"
Bai Zhengxuan rubbed his sore back and said something to Grandpa Wang.
Bai Zhengxuan started helping with the search early in the morning, and he was so tired that he could barely straighten his back.
"Okay! I'll help look too!"
Grandpa Wang also joined the search for the child.
Some kind-hearted people, seeing the elderly woman's pitiful state, also rejoined the search for the child.
We searched until noon, but still couldn't find it.
At noon, the people searching for their child caught three plump rabbits in the wheat field.
Captain Zhu found something resembling a large iron pot from the wind power plant to use as a cooking pot, set it up in the yard, and started cooking rabbits.
If you don't have any seasonings, just open the instant noodles and pour in the seasoning packet.
The pot was bubbling and steaming, attracting many children.
The children stared longingly at the rabbit meat in the pot, their mouths watering.
After the apocalypse, with no water or electricity, where can you still find hot meat?
The old man also ran into the yard and looked at the children in the yard again and again.
There were dozens of children, and he looked at each child's innocent face carefully.
He just hoped that his granddaughter could be inside and surrounding him.
His granddaughter also likes to eat meat.
I looked again and again, but I still couldn't find his granddaughter.
The old man didn't leave either, believing that his granddaughter had the most sensitive nose and would definitely come over when she smelled the aroma of meat.
Just like before, every time he finished stewing the meat, his granddaughter would rush over to eat it right on time.
The rabbit meat was cooked quickly; each child got a large piece, and each adult got a small piece.
Three plump rabbits, divided among five hundred people, yielded pitifully small pieces of meat, barely enough to fill a tooth gap.
At least the broth could warm the stomach, and everyone was slurping it down with gusto.
The old man's eyes were fixed on everyone who came to collect the meat soup, not just children, but even adults; he looked them over carefully again and again.
It was as if his granddaughter could grow up overnight after being away from him.
"Where did you take my Duoduo?!"
The old man suddenly widened his eyes and lunged at a middle-aged man, gripping his clothes tightly.
"Who are you? You've mistaken me for someone else."
The middle-aged man reached out and pushed the old man away.
But the old man seemed to be stronger than him; no matter how he pushed, the old man's hands gripped his clothes tightly.
"The hair tie on your hand...it's my Duoduo's!" The old man looked at the hair tie on the middle-aged man's hand through teary eyes. "I bought it for her!"
The rubber band was a plain black, without any decorations.
He was very troubled by the fact that his granddaughter didn't like anything fancy.
He always wanted to dress his granddaughter up like a little princess, but the little princess didn't like anything fancy.
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is my wife's!"
The middle-aged man remained calm and reached out to push the old man away.
