Jiang Mi's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered something, and asked with a somewhat curious tone: "Second? Is there also the first survivor base in the southwest?"
In the past life, there were many rumors about the Southwest Second Survivor Base, including but not limited to that the Southwest Second Survivor Base was established by betraying the Southwest First Survivor Base. There were also rumors that it was called the Second because the base commanders of the two bases were brothers. The base commander of the Southwest First Survivor Base unfortunately passed away, and his younger brother established the Southwest Second Survivor Base.
As well as various conspiracy theory messages, Jiang Mi had been curious about them before, but had never received any definite information. Now there was a ready-made veteran member of the Southwest Second Survivor Base, who could just satisfy her curiosity.
"Probably not," Gu Qi shrugged, "because our base was originally the Second Military District in the Southwest, and after the apocalypse, it was directly converted into the Second Survivor Base in the Southwest."
Jiang Mi was a little stunned by this thought. It's... just that simple?
Then why were there so many rumors about the Second Southwestern Survivor Base in the previous life?
My curiosity was satisfied, but I was also a little disappointed for some reason.
There's nothing we can do about it; eating melons is human nature. But when a melon that looks round and plump is opened and turns out to contain white flesh that is tasteless and a pity to throw away, it's a bit of a pity.
Just as he was thinking about it, Gu Qi behind him suddenly laughed and said, "Ms. Jiang, how long do you plan to rely on me?"
Brought back to her senses by his voice, Jiang Mi was stunned for a moment before she realized that she didn't know when Gu Qi had let her go, but she was still leaning comfortably on his chest.
Jiang Mi coughed uncomfortably, then stood up and walked away from him. He bent down to pick up the gun he had kicked away and walked out the door. "It looks like it has no effect now. I'll leave then."
Gu Qi did not stop him. He just took out a cigarette from the pocket of his black hood and lit it. He held the cigarette between his slender fingertips in a comfortable and natural posture, and said with a smile: "Then Miss Jiang, you must be careful on the way."
Jiang Mi was about to step out of the door when he paused and tilted his head slightly to look at him.
Gu Qi was still dressed in black, with only a little bit of her smooth jaw showing. But perhaps because of her, the black scarf around her neck was slightly opened, revealing a neck with a distinct Adam's apple and faintly visible black veins on her neck.
"Can I think you are threatening me?" Jiang Mi said in a slightly cold tone.
Gu Qi flicked the cigarette between his fingers and shook his head slightly. "No, no, no, Miss Jiang misunderstood me. It's just that things aren't peaceful here recently. It's a bit dangerous for Miss Jiang to be alone, so I was just kindly reminding you."
At this point, Gu Qi took a deep breath of cigarette, exhaled thick white smoke, threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and crushed it, put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: "Of course, Miss Jiang, you can also choose to hire me to protect you. The price is not expensive, one crystal at a time."
Jiang Mi resisted the urge to roll her eyes. She was too lazy to pay any more attention to him. She just turned around and left without looking back.
As for this building, she could just come back in a couple of days, but she really didn't want to deal with this person again. He was a little bit crazy.
Seeing that she didn't even say hello, Gu Qi couldn't help but click his tongue and watched her back disappear with a smile. The smile on his face faded away only when she was no longer visible. His eyes fell on a certain place on the first floor, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he followed her out of the department store with a swagger.
After Jiang Mi left the department store, she felt a little unlucky and immediately chose a direction farther away from here. However, not long after she left, she saw a group of people entering the department store again. After a rough count, she estimated that there were about seven or eight of them.
She just glanced at it from a distance and left quickly, not wanting to get involved in any trouble at all.
According to the original progress, the Winter Base would be destroyed by the Southwest Second Survivor Base in two months at most. There are many different versions about Xing Shaoan's trip to the Southwest Second Survivor Base.
After all, the Winter Base was not well-known at the beginning, and many people didn't even know about it. After it was destroyed, there was no news about it. Xing Shaoan's original presence in the Winter Base naturally faded away until it became that he voluntarily joined the Southwest Second Survivor Base or that he was forcibly taken back by the Southwest Second Survivor Base, etc.
But no matter which one it is, the destruction of the Winter Base is a fact, so the reason why Xing Shaoan went to the southwest was most likely because he was recruited there after the Winter Base was destroyed.
Therefore, Xing Shaoan's attitude is still questionable, and now I can only wait quietly for news from my brother.
After getting away from the department store, Jiang Mi walked more than three kilometers away. By the time she arrived at another business district that looked more prosperous, it was already dark. She simply didn't go searching for supplies. She found an empty room and slipped into the space while no one was watching.
After entering the space again, Jiang Mi went to see her fruit forest first. What surprised her was that flower buds had begun to grow on the fruit trees!
Jiang Mi gently touched the flower bud and liked it very much. It meant that she would be able to eat fresh fruit soon.
I just don’t know whether the crops grown in space will have the same effect as the space lake water.
We can try it out when these fruit trees grow up, but by then it is possible that Xing Shaoan will have already been won over and we can let him speak directly with scientific data.
The more Jiang Mi thought about it, the happier he felt. He hummed a little tune while enjoying his delicious meal. Then, before going to bed, he suddenly thought of something.
"That's not right. I remember that fruit trees need pollination to bear fruit, right? I don't have insects to pollinate, so don't I have to pollinate manually?" Jiang Mi suddenly jumped up from the bed, thought for a moment, and began to search in the space.
Fortunately, when she bought the books, she basically bought every kind of book in the library. Especially when she thought about growing crops on her own, she also bought a lot of books on crop planting techniques.
"Found it!" Jiang Mi exclaimed softly, and quickly raised his hand to pull the book in front of him, found the page in the bibliography about the pollination results of fruit trees and began to read.
After changing several books, Jiang Mi finally figured out how to do artificial pollination.
"A few small flower buds have grown today. It will probably bloom in the next few days." Jiang Mi closed the book in his hand and let out a sigh of relief.
After all this trouble, the little sleepiness that had just arisen in me disappeared without a trace. I lay down and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. All I could think about was what I had just read in the book about how to pollinate fruit trees.
I don’t know how long it took before Jiang Mi fell into a drowsy sleep. When he woke up the next day, it was almost ten o’clock in the morning.
