Chapter 185 I Don't Accept Your Help
"No, we won't go back with you." Song Zhe thought about it and still decided to refuse Jiang Mi.
After all, in these end times, human nature cannot be tested, and it is always a good idea to be more vigilant.
"Why don't you two know how to appreciate kindness? We are also thinking of you with good intentions."
The other members of the team spoke up immediately.
"Okay," Jiang Mi interrupted immediately, "Since you two don't believe us, we won't force you."
Jiang Mi was obviously not surprised by the decision of the two little boys. "But in order for you to survive smoothly, I will take out some supplies and leave them here."
Finally, Jiang Mi took out some medicine, food and clean water from the space and placed them in front of Song Zhe and Gao Yang.
"No need." Song Zhe put on a stinky face as if to keep strangers away.
In order to reassure the aloof boy, Jiang Mi opened a bag of food on the spot and ate it in big mouthfuls, proving with her actions that there were no drugs in the food.
After she finished eating, she handed the remaining food to the boy, indicating that he could eat it without worry.
"Now you should believe us. At least the food is innocent."
Putting down the food, Jiang Mi pointed in the direction they came from: "If you go north, you will see our base."
Jiang Mi then left a map with a route drawn on it. "This is the specific route to our base," she said softly. "If you need help or shelter, you can always go there and seek refuge with us."
Song Zhe looked at Jiang Mi in front of him, with a hint of hesitation and confusion in his eyes.
"Anyway, the choice is yours. If you don't want to come, I won't force you. If you are willing to come, I welcome you anytime." Jiang Mi said nonchalantly, preparing to make one last effort to dispel their doubts.
"Then... thank you." Song Zhe held it in his mouth for a long time before he stiffened his neck to thank you and accepted Jiang Mi's kindness.
Although he said thank you, Jiang Mi could still see his vigilance in the other person's eyes.
"Everyone, pack up and get ready to leave."
Jiang Mi shook his head helplessly, knowing that if their team didn't leave as soon as possible, Song Zhe would not believe that he really had no ulterior motives.
In this doomsday, although Jiang Mi cannot save everyone, he always has to help when he encounters someone. Others cannot be forced, as long as he is true to his own heart, it will be enough.
Afterwards, Jiang Mi gave the two boys a few more instructions before turning around and leaving the school with his teammates.
Song Zhe looked at the backs of Jiang Mi and others as they left, and then heaved a sigh of relief.
"Ayang, we have to go back quickly, and these supplies are enough for us to fill our stomachs."
"Ah?" Gao Yang looked at Song Zhe in surprise.
"But didn't you just want to believe them?"
"Then what other options do we have now? We can't let several people starve to death in school. We haven't found anything to eat for several days."
Song Zhe shook his head helplessly, but ultimately he had to bow to reality.
After Song Zhe watched Jiang Mi and the others walk away, he took the supplies and returned to the shelter they had built with peace of mind.
There are a total of six children in the shelter, including Song Zhe and Gao Yang. Ever since Song Zhe and Gao Yang went to look for supplies, everyone has been worried about their safety.
Seeing that the two of them finally returned safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where have you been? Why are you back so late?"
One of the children walked forward, and his eyes sparkled with gold when he saw the supplies in Song Zhe's hand.
"Where did you find so many supplies?"
"It was a kind-hearted older sister who took the initiative to give it to us."
Gao Yang did not hide anything and told his friends everything about his encounter with Jiang Mi and his team members.
"How do you know there's nothing wrong with these things?"
"The older sister just ate the food right in front of us."
"Okay." Song Zhe interrupted the conversation of the children in a cold tone.
"We haven't eaten for a long time, and there's really nothing wrong with the food. Let's all come and eat something."
Hearing what Song Zhe said, the other children put aside their worries and vigilance, and wolfed down the food.
Since Jiang Mi provided enough supplies, the children had the fullest meal they had in recent times.
About half an hour later, the children had eaten and drunk their fill and slowly lay down on the bed.
"I didn't expect that you two would run into some kind people when you went out to look for supplies."
"yes……"
Song Zhe frowned slightly, took out the map to the base given to him by Jiang Mi from his pocket, and fell into deep thought.
"Everyone go to bed early."
Due to various reasons, several of them did not leave school after the school holiday due to extreme weather conditions. They did not expect that they would never be able to wait for the school to start after the holiday.
In fact, there were not only six people, but many of them died in the fight with the mutants, or died of illness due to lack of medical treatment, and in the end only these few were left.
Song Zhe is the oldest among the children and also has the highest prestige, so he is responsible for arranging the children's daily activities.
After the children had finished packing, they lay down on the bed and gradually fell asleep.
It was not until late at night that Gao Yang suddenly felt hot all over and felt a little uncomfortable.
“Ahem…”
At first, in order not to worry his friends, Gao Yang endured the discomfort and buried his head in the quilt.
As time passed, his condition not only did not improve, but became more serious.
"Gao Yang, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Song Zhe, awakened by the coughing sound, carefully came to Gao Yang's side.
Seeing that Gao Yang's face was flushed at this moment, he subconsciously touched Gao Yang's forehead.
"Your forehead is so hot, do you have a fever?"
Song Zhe frowned slightly, "Why didn't you tell everyone that you were sick? Why are you holding on here?"
There was a hint of anger in his voice.
"I'm fine... cough cough cough..."
Gao Yang said while holding back a cough: "Maybe he'll be fine after a good night's sleep tomorrow, don't worry."
"How is this possible?"
The moonlight shone through the window, glimmering on the fine beads of sweat on Gao Yang's forehead.
Suddenly Song Zhe remembered that the supplies Jiang Mi left for them before leaving today included medicines.
"Wait a moment. I'll go see if there's any medicine you can use among those people's medicines."
Song Zhe did not dare to delay and immediately found the remaining supplies and started looking for medicine.
"Oops……"
Song Zhe frowned slightly. These medicines were for treating external injuries and there were no antipyretics at all.
"Azhe, don't look for me anymore. I just have a minor cold and it will go away in one night."
"Nonsense, if you keep going like this, even a minor illness will turn into a major one." Song Zhe obviously didn't agree with Gao Yang's statement. After all, they had already lost many friends because of a "minor illness" like fever, and Gao Yang must not be in any trouble again.
