A hearty breakfast was nothing to Xie Yan, Xu Xuening and others, but after they walked around Huacheng, they immediately realized that the food they had prepared to entertain Zhao Zhongli today was simply too much.
Xu Xuening brought her son to the kindergarten, but saw a cart of vegetables being pulled into the kindergarten. Xu Xuening frowned and became more worried about Huacheng's current situation.
"Who are you?" The guard saw Xu Xuening standing outside the door. There was no movement for a long time, which made the guard very nervous.
"I brought my child over to take a look." Xu Xuening held her son in her arms and saw that the guard was still holding a gun. Not only that guard, but many guards in the kindergarten came out.
"If your child wants to enroll, you can go to the reception desk up front to register. They'll tell you what to do next." The guard looked at the child in Xu Xuening's arms and said kindly, "Most of them are orphans. How old is your son?"
"A little over two years old." Xu Xuening looked at Xiao Hai with wide eyes looking at the guard opposite, and giggled.
"Orphans? What about the other children?" Xu Xuening looked at the children inside the gate. Some of the children were sitting alone in the corner, while others were still smiling innocently.
"Those who are still able are taking care of their children themselves. Many people are worried recently, so those who can do so do so themselves. Some people now carry their children on their backs while going to work. There are also people in your situation, who send their children here during the day and take them away at night." The guard looked at Xu Xuening, guessing that she was a woman with a child.
"You just arrived in the city, right? Go register over there. If there's anything you're not sure about, or if you need any help, please talk to Principal Wang."
After undergoing a series of examinations, Xu Xuening met Principal Wang. The middle-aged Principal Wang looked slightly plump, his half-bald head glinting in the sunlight. His eyes held the calmness of an adult, and he possessed the kindness that only an elderly person possesses when looking at complex matters.
After explaining the purpose of the visit, Principal Wang nodded. He looked at the woman in front of him, and also looked at Xu Xuening's clothes, and kindly asked about her future plans.
"What are you good at?" Principal Wang looked at the woman in front of him. Many people who came to him were looking for a stable job. However, this woman didn't seem to have that in mind.
"I don't seem to be particularly good at anything." Xu Xuening thought for a moment. After her rebirth, she had forgotten many of her skills. After her rebirth, she had been constantly on the run. So, it seemed that "I am good at chopping zombies."
"Ahem." After hearing what Xu Xuening said, Principal Wang raised his head and looked at the woman carefully to make sure that she had no mental problems.
After exchanging a few glances with Principal Wang, Xu Xuening shrugged and said, "I came from Lincheng. I encountered quite a few zombies on the way here. I think this is something I'm good at now. I wonder if I can find a job with this?"
"Yes!" Principal Wang said affirmatively, his eyes suddenly shining. "Comrade Xu, your skill is really useful!"
After hearing Xu Xuening's words, Principal Wang immediately said affirmatively, "Don't worry. What we need most right now is people with your skills. There's definitely a lot of work. Come on, tell me what you encountered in Lincheng."
Xu Xuening told a simplified version of the Lincheng escape story, focusing on Wei Zizhou as the protagonist.
"No wonder." Principal Wang nodded, took out some tea leaves, poured them into the teapot, filled it with hot water, and soon a fragrant tea aroma wafted out. "No wonder so many people came from Lincheng. It turns out someone in your area had an early warning. What's the name of the policeman you mentioned?"
"Wei Zizhou, however, because he hijacked the TV station before the end of the world, the case in the file has not been cleared. He is now a prisoner and has been assigned to the Third Ring Road." Xu Xuening took the cup of tea poured by Principal Wang and explained.
Principal Wang shook his head. "There's no way to update the files in a timely manner right now. It's such a pity for this person."
Hearing what Principal Wang said, Xu Xuening's heart tightened. She quickly asked, "Principal Wang, what's wrong?"
Principal Wang looked at Xu Xuening's nervous expression and said, "There are so many zombies right now. As you know, people living outside are terrified of zombies every day. Even normal people can't stand it. That's why I said it was a pity for that comrade."
Xu Xuening thought back to their days on the run in Lincheng. They'd encountered zombies quite often, but with conscious avoidance, they'd managed to survive. She had faith in Wei Zizhou for this. Throughout their escape, Xie Yan and Wei Zizhou had both diligently bolstered everyone's confidence in facing the zombies. Xie Yan had taught them various survival techniques, while Wei Zizhou had taught them how to quickly adjust their mindsets and remain calm in the face of danger.
"Principal Wang, if we want to go to the East Third Ring Road to visit our friends, how do we get there?" Xu Xuening asked him humbly.
Principal Wang was surprised. He adjusted his glasses with his hand and carefully examined the woman in front of him, as if examining something. His eyes held a mixture of approval and pity. With a complicated expression, he quickly said, "If you really want to go, I suggest you leave the child here. After all, accidents can easily happen in a place like that. There's another way to get there."
"What method?" Xu Xuening asked.
"You can join the zombie clearing team. In fact, there are already some militia organizations in the east of the city, who are clearing zombies like the people in the team. It is said that the rewards are quite generous. You can go out with them, and that way your chances of survival will be higher." Principal Wang pointed out a way for Xu Xuening.
