Back in the RV, Xie Purou finally let go of Yue Xiwen's hand.
I held hands nervously all the way, and the shabby environment had a very gloomy atmosphere, so my palms were wet with sweat.
Facing Yue Xiwen's thoughtful eyes, Xie Purou said the same thing.
"Don't tell anyone." I put my hands together. "Please."
Yue Xiwen chuckled, knowing that she had misunderstood.
"I was just thinking about something. I won't tell anyone, don't worry."
How could Xie Pu Rou be at ease? This was a matter of her dignity as a grown woman!
Continue to ask: "The base asked and you won't tell me?"
Yue Xiwen made a zipper gesture with her hand across her mouth: "I won't tell anyone no matter who asks, and I won't tell anyone whether they ask or not!"
Xie Purou smiled brightly: "Good sister! What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you. Let's eat together and then go back to rest."
"Let me do it?" Yue Xiwen rolled up her sleeves. "You've worked hard on the journey, so go and rest. Come and eat when the meal is ready."
She was walking in front and didn't know if Little Grape had seen anything disgusting. As someone who had received psychological counseling, she knew a little bit that she should give people some time to relax.
"But what I cook is not as delicious as yours. What do you want to eat?"
Xie Purou also wanted to try Yue Xiwen's cooking skills, but she didn't want anything too complicated: "I want to eat noodles, so a simple one will be fine."
"Okay, wait a moment." Yue Xiwen entered the kitchen area.
Ten minutes later, a bowl of clear soup noodles topped with a fried egg and luncheon meat was served.
Xie Pu Rou had adjusted her mentality by this time, and when she saw the clear soup noodles, she ate them with relish.
After dinner, the two returned to their respective rooms and continued to sleep.
Yue Xiwen did not rest after returning to the room. Instead, he calculated the time and divided it into two halves, one half for absorbing the crystal core and the other half for resting.
Time flies and eight hours have passed.
The reminder sounded fifteen minutes in advance, and Xie Purou was in a much better mental state when she woke up.
After her first chemical plant adventure, she is no longer so afraid of chemical plants.
Because this time it was daytime! Even if it was still hailstorm it could give her courage.
The second time she entered the chemical plant, Xie Purou was obviously much braver. She dared to walk forward just holding hands. She was no longer the cowardly team leader who hid behind Yue Xiwen.
The second chemical plant is larger than the first one we entered, and the equipment inside appears to be more professional. It can be considered a small and medium-sized enterprise.
The building alone is three times the size of the chemical plant in front!
The two of them went in and found that the place was very ordinary, too ordinary, so ordinary that even Xie Pu Rou noticed an abnormal atmosphere.
When I first saw it, I thought it was just an ordinary warehouse, but it was so clean, there was no blood or signs of fighting, and things were neatly placed where they should be.
Yue Xiwen went forward and took a look, and found that it was an empty box.
At first, they didn't take these empty boxes seriously. The factory might have just processed a batch of goods, so it was normal to have empty boxes piled up nearby.
Xie Purou asked quietly, "Is the beginning of the apocalypse a legal holiday?"
Even on holidays, it's impossible for a small or medium-sized chemical plant like this to stop working...
How much loss would be incurred if the work was stopped for one day? Even those who are not in this industry know that the boss will not let the employees go back even if they are paid overtime.
"It's not a statutory holiday." Yue Xiwen held her hand tightly, and became more vigilant.
Yue Xiwen lowered her head and whispered, "Let's be careful."
Xie Purou held her hand tightly, "Okay."
Walking around rows of empty boxes, we arrived at the deepest part of the warehouse.
Warehouses are usually located in dark and cool places, so the lighting here is not good and it looks pitch black at a glance.
After carefully entering, I found that the warehouse was very spacious, with empty shelves and messy things on the floor, which was completely different from the outside.
It didn't seem like they had moved their things away and had no time to clean up, but rather like they were just being casual and didn't care about the hygiene of the place at all.
Strictly speaking, warehouses have hygiene regulations, and workers would never do this. If there is a mess, the workers have to clean it up themselves.
Yue Xiwen wiped the dust off the shelves and said, "People only came here to move things out after the apocalypse, and it was definitely not the beginning of the apocalypse."
At the beginning of the apocalypse, normal people were scrambling for survival supplies, and even the central base allocated most of its manpower to protect and collect supplies.
But regardless of whether it was the end of the world or not, why would anyone think of attacking a chemical plant? What was the use of these things?
She didn't always know about the base's missions, so Yue Xiwen patted Xie Purou's hand and said, "I'll call the base first to confirm."
In order to prevent any accidents, Yue Xiwen made the call on the spot. Xie Pu Rou could hear the sound of the phone clearly in the empty warehouse.
As soon as the call ended, Xie Purou couldn't help but ask, "If they haven't been to the base, then who needs the things from the chemical plant?"
Yue Xiwen rubbed his forehead. There was no clue at all, so it was better not to make blind guesses.
After walking around the entire base and confirming again that only the items were missing and there were no other abnormalities, Yue Xiwen recorded the information truthfully and reported it to the base.
The RV continued to move forward, and they soon arrived at the last chemical plant before reaching the largest chemical plant in China.
This chemical plant is even larger than the previous two, and the distance from the entrance to the building alone is quite a distance.
There is no one in this chemical plant. After checking several
All the chemicals in it have disappeared!
Two chemical plants were cleared out one after another, and Yue Xiwen couldn't help but suspect that someone had ulterior motives.
They looked around and walked inside the last, which was also the largest building here. They could leave after they finished looking around.
"We haven't looked inside yet, shall we go take a look?"
Xie Purou no longer hugged Yue Xiwen's arm, but took the initiative to hold her hand. Holding hands did not restrict their movements so much.
But she still walked behind Yue Xiwen and followed Yue Xiwen's steps.
Walking deep into the warehouse, there was actually another door inside.
It seemed that they had to open it and take a look, so they both held their breath and Yue Xiwen took out a flashlight and carefully pushed the door open.
As soon as the door was pushed open a crack, Yue Xiwen saw the scene inside, and an even more disgusting smell hit her face.
She suddenly raised her hand to block Xie Purou's sight. "It's a bit scary, be prepared."
Xie Purou was stunned.
Only after noticing that she nodded did Yue Xiwen slowly take his hand away.
Xie Purou carefully moved her gaze from bottom to top, but since the door was only opened a crack, she didn't see anything.
But she remembered Yue Xiwen's reminder, lowered her head, and put her arms around Yue Xiwen's arms.
Yue Xiwen pushed the door open and the two of them slowly moved inside.
Finally, they saw the tragic situation inside!
