"Ranran! Are we still leaving today?"
Gu Chen ate the chicken leg to replenish his energy. The chicken leg was coated with chili oil and looked shiny.
Lin Anran recalled that deep gaze, "Let's go! That group of zombies is still a ticking time bomb; we have to get through here, even at night."
"Okay! I'll make the arrangements!"
That car was totaled! The remaining people had to be put into other vehicles.
After everyone finished dinner, they started driving.
Lin Anran's RV, as the first vehicle, traveled safely and without incident.
Lin Yu asked, puzzled, "Wasn't there a zombie king? He was quite tough just now, why isn't he showing up now!"
Lin Anran raised an eyebrow and pointed her chin at Jiang Qinian, "You'll have to ask him about that!"
"Wow! It's my brother-in-law! That's amazing! He can even easily take down the zombie king!"
Lin Yu looked at the shining Jiang Qinian with admiration, and he had made up his mind that this was his brother-in-law.
No wonder he's the Zombie King! This is just too overpowered!
I suddenly want to be a zombie with brains!
With Jiang Qinian's suppression, the zombies in the house hid as much as possible; they were just there to work!
After successfully navigating the dangerous area, everyone finally felt a huge weight lifted off their shoulders.
"Tsk—Hello everyone! This is Lin Yu from the Fire Phoenix Squad. We have now safely passed the dangerous section and will be returning the way we came. Please remain vigilant and be careful!"
"Tsk—Hello everyone! This is Lin Yu from the Fire Phoenix Squad. We have now safely passed the dangerous section and will be returning the way we came. Please remain vigilant and be careful!"
"Hiss—Hello everyone! I'm from the Fire Phoenix Squad..."
Hearing this, everyone felt a sense of relief.
In the shadows, where no one could see, a zombie stood under a tree, its gray-white eyes fixed on a passing RV.
"Interesting!"
His hoarse voice sounded like chalk scraping across a rough blackboard, harsh and unpleasant to hear.
Jiang Qinian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them and looked out the car window with a gloomy gaze.
What a vengeful little zombie!
After driving on the highway, the journey was smooth and unobstructed, and the unconscious injured people all regained consciousness.
Those who survive a great calamity are destined for good fortune.
Chen Chao once again took on the important task of base commander. He sat in the passenger seat of Lin's father's car, his eyes warily watching the outside.
This time, he won't let his guard down!
"Uncle Chen! Let's eat! My dad's driving, don't worry! Nothing else will happen!"
Lin Yu came to persuade Chen Chao, who was working tirelessly without sleep, his eyes filled with heartache.
As the base commander, he has many things beyond his control, and the safety of many people rests on his shoulders!
If he had a base, he would definitely be a complete hands-off boss, hahaha!
The car was parked on the side of the road, and as usual, we would spend the night here.
After wasting supplies along the way, Lin Anran generously donated five large bags of supplies, and everyone enjoyed a hearty dinner.
A mouthful of hot instant noodle soup washes away all the fatigue of the day.
"It's so delicious! Thank you, Ranran! Thank you all!"
"Yes! This is the most delicious dinner I've ever had! It smells so good! I didn't even want to leave a drop of the instant noodle soup!"
"All the emotions are in the soup. You can help yourselves, I'll drink mine!"
The man drank a bowl of instant noodle soup with gusto, tears glistening in his eyes.
"Wow! It's so delicious!"
After spending a long time together, everyone's hearts were truly united. Chen Chao stood in the center and delivered a generous speech.
"Everyone! I thank you all once again! I am so fortunate to have you all as my support and to have become brothers with you through thick and thin! When we return to base, I will double the amount of supplies I promised you!"
"Alright, Brother Chen! This time, we've been brothers through thick and thin together! If you ever need anything, just come to me! I'll go through fire and water for you!"
"Yes, Brother Chen! Everyone has witnessed how hard you've worked this time. I'll toast you with water instead of wine. From now on, we're brothers!"
"good!"
"......"
Xu Hu, hidden in the crowd, had a cold look in his eyes and exuded a chilling aura.
Niu Zi poured him a cup of hot water. "Boss! Have a cup too, you must be tired from the journey!"
Xu Hu took the teacup, his eyes fixed on Chen Chao standing in the center, and he stood up.
"Base Commander! I'd also like to raise a glass to you. This glass of water is to thank you for taking care of us. We'll be relying on you for the rest of the time!"
Lin Yu glanced at him and muttered sarcastically, "Did Xu Hu forget to take his medicine? He can actually speak like a human being now! That's really abnormal!"
Gu Chen also found it strange, "I feel like he's nothing special, we'd better be careful!"
Lin's father and Jiang Junke stood up at the same time, raising their teacups high, saying, "Everything is understood without words!"
"Okay! I'll drink this water too! Everyone, get some rest early tonight! We'll be home tomorrow!"
"good!"
After everyone had returned to their tents to rest, a man gently pulled open the tent flap and crawled out.
"Duo'er? Duo Duo! Are you there?"
Yang Duo emerged from the shadows, her eyes filled with a deathly gray that revealed her inhuman appearance.
"How are you? Does it still hurt, Duoduo? I had no choice; only that medicine could save you! So..."
"I...I know! I...I don't...it doesn't hurt!"
The man quickly pulled out a handful of snacks from his pocket. "Eat up, Duoduo! Don't go hungry! We can go back tomorrow! Hang in there a little longer!"
"Can I...can I go back?"
Yang Duo's eyes were vacant, staring into the darkness in the distance.
"I definitely can! Duoduo! You believe me! I will protect you. This time, no one can hurt you!"
"Thank you! Mori, Mori-nii-san!"
The man blushed and whispered, "Duoduo, get some rest after you finish eating. I'm going back now! Don't let them find you!"
"good!"
Yang Duo watched the man enter the tent, her eyes still empty. Her rotting hand brushed across her cheek, the long scar resembling a scab.
"None of you are getting away!"
As Yang Duo hid in the darkness, another figure arrived at the tent.
"Finally... I caught up! And I was... pretty fast!"
His hoarse voice was deep and his empty eyes seemed to pierce through the tent.
Jiang Qinian saw the whole scene through the gap in the tent. Only after everything quieted down did he draw the curtain closed. His lips curled slightly.
"A-Nian! What's wrong?"
Lin Anran rubbed her half-open eyes, her voice soft and weak.
"It's okay! Sweetie, go to sleep! I'll stay with you!"
The man embraced the soft Jiang Qinian, his heart feeling as tender as if it were filled with cotton.
