Chapter 71 Preparing for the Return Trip



After all the supplies in the warehouse were packed into boxes, Uncle Yun and his team searched the place inside and out again.

The group retrieved Liu An's cell phone from the control room.

After a few simple steps, Xiao Jingchen successfully unlocked the phone password.

"Uncle Yun, the computer!"

Xiao Jingchen connected his phone to his computer and began working diligently to restore the data.

Half an hour later, most of the deleted data on the phone was finally recovered.

As the person in charge of this warehouse, Liu An still had a lot of information on his phone.

First of all, this warehouse is number three.

In other words, Xinyuan Group has more than just this one warehouse; there are at least two warehouses numbered one and two before it.

Based on the chat logs between Liu An and others, Warehouse No. 1 was filled with various collected daily necessities, including rice, flour, cooking oil, various instant foods, and household items such as towels, blankets, and toiletries.

To date, the inventory in Warehouse No. 1 continues to increase, which is the result of Xinyuan Group's continuous collection and plunder of materials buried under the snow.

The goal should be to control City A by monopolizing resources.

This is also a common tactic used by capital.

Warehouse No. 2 is located in City C, which is next to City A. The types of supplies inside are similar to those in Warehouse No. 1.

It seems that Xinyuan Group has big ambitions. Not only does it want to dominate City A, but it is also eager to try its luck in other cities.

Besides, there should be several other warehouses behind Warehouse No. 3, but Liu An's status doesn't allow him to access them for the time being. He only knows that they are all located around City A.

"Uncle Yun, can you find the locations of these warehouses?" Xiao Jingchen closed his laptop and looked up to ask.

"It shouldn't be a big problem. As long as their warehouse is guarded, there will definitely be traces, and traces can't be hidden." Uncle Yun said respectfully.

"Alright! I'll leave this matter to you two!"

"Yes, young master!"

Xinyuan Group is no good. Ye Ning will definitely take over all of its warehouses when she finds the opportunity.

However, that won't work for now, because she doesn't have enough storage space, and the extra supplies can only be stored in the warehouse.

In Ye Ning's mind, only the supplies stored in her spatial storage are the safest.

If only the space could be expanded further in the future, there might be another chance when the second solar storm arrives. After all, Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen acquired their superpowers during that time in their previous lives.

After everything was taken care of, it was time to prepare for the return journey.

As planned, Ye Ning, Xiao Jingchen, and Long Fei returned via the same route.

Meanwhile, Uncle Yun and his group took Liu An's phone and headed down another road. Liu An's phone had a GPS tracking system installed, which would confuse Xinyuan Group's judgment.

Besides that, Uncle Yun and the others had some other important things to do, which Xiao Jingchen had not yet revealed to Ye Ning.

It was already getting dark when we set off. It's been getting dark particularly early these past few days, and the weather has started to become a bit unstable again.

"Uncle Yun, please be careful in everything you do. If you encounter any danger, you can put aside your current tasks for now." Xiao Jingchen nimbly mounted the snowmobile, while Ye Ning sat behind him, tightly hugging his waist.

"Young Master, don't worry, we're fine! Judging from the weather, it looks like it's going to snow. Please be careful on your way back."

Amidst the roar of snowmobiles, the three snowmobiles split into two groups and sped away across the snow.

The wind and snow howled past her ears, but Ye Ning's mindset was completely different now than when she arrived.

All her tension, worry, and fear vanished, and even the biting cold wind seemed gentle to her.

This operation was a great success. With so many weapons, even just their weight could crush dozens of people.

Most importantly, everyone is alright.

Xiao Jingchen sped across the snowfield, leaving all the scenery behind in an instant.

He looked up at the sky. The moon, which had been bright just two days ago, seemed to have a fuzzy edge tonight. The cold wind was getting stronger and stronger. He felt a chill in his heart. This was a sign that a cold wave was coming.

"Long Fei, speed up!" Xiao Jingchen ordered.

“Okay! Mr. Xiao!” Long Fei also sensed something was wrong.

Xiao Jingchen gently patted Ye Ning's hand, "Ye Ning, hold on tight, we need to get ready to speed up!"

With the roar of their engines, the two snowmobiles sped away.

At the same time, Uncle Yun and his group also sped up. Unlike Xiao Jingchen and his group, who traveled along the coastline, Uncle Yun and his group traveled along the northern suburbs of the city.

"Second brother, drive faster! It looks like another cold wave might be coming!"

"I understand! But the wind is just too strong, it's hard to drive!"

The two quickened their pace and continued on their way.

As they passed a shopping mall covered with a thick layer of ice, Uncle Yun suddenly had an idea.

"Second brother, wait here for me for a while."

Uncle Yun broke through the thick layer of ice and then crawled inside.

He glanced around the mall and found a place that used to be the mall's management office.

He took Liu An's phone out of his pocket, turned it off, carefully wiped away the fingerprints, wrapped it in plastic wrap, and put it in his desk drawer.

By the time Xinyuan Group locates this place, it will have been several days already. By then, the young master and Miss Ye will have long since returned to the shelter.

After doing all this, he quickly left the mall.

"How is it? Is everything done?" Yun Jian was waiting anxiously outside.

"It's all set up!" Uncle Yun nodded.

"Let's hurry up and leave! It might snow soon, we need to find somewhere to take shelter."

The two turned their snowmobiles around and sped off towards the city center to the south.
