Lu Sheng and the others stared at the handsome young face in front of them for a long time before they remembered that Wu Hainan had brought a chubby boy with an unusually strong appetite at the Zhoushan refuge.
This kid was so hungry back then he even ate roasted parasites, how come he's suddenly so thin???
"What have you been involved in? Gambling, drugs, prostitution, or prostitution? Why have you suddenly lost so much weight?" Zhang Xiaojuan rubbed her chin, looking Pan Zhi up and down.
Adult weight gain is usually gradual; maintaining a stable weight is considered good. Only developing unhealthy habits can lead to sudden, dramatic weight loss.
For someone like Pan Zhi, who has a strong appetite, losing weight is even more difficult.
Pan Zhi blushed from head to toe, "Uncle, don't wrong me! I put in so much effort to lose weight!"
The moment the word "uncle" was uttered, Zhang Xiaojuan's expression changed rapidly, like a revolving lantern.
"Little fatty." After several seconds, Zhang Xiaojuan gritted her teeth and put her arm around Pan Zhi's shoulder. "You're finished! I won't let Nianbao play with you!"
Zhang Xiaojuan angrily went to the vending machine and bought a bunch of delicious food. "You wait, I'm going to tell Nianbao right now."
Pan Zhi: "..."
I'm so confused and bewildered. I don't know what I did to offend Uncle.
The rest of the people were overjoyed, with Han Rui laughing the loudest. "You've touched Zhang Xiaojuan's only sore spot."
The young and naive Pan Zhi was taught a lesson on the spot: it turns out that a man's age is also a taboo subject.
After figuring out why Zhang Xiaojuan had gone berserk, Pan Zhi pitifully approached Lu Sheng, "Sister, can Shi Nian still play with me? Is Brother Zhang really going to do this?"
"Is it too late for me to apologize to Brother Zhang now?"
"Waaah, I traveled all this way to visit my little sister Shi Nian."
Lu Sheng was driven crazy by the little fat boy's nagging. "It depends on your own efforts. Your brother Zhang doesn't hold grudges. If Shi Nian gives you some good food, she'll play with you."
Shi Niantian was a little bored by herself, so it was perfect for the two foodies to get together and eat and drink.
The group prepared a sumptuous lunch to entertain Wu Hainan and the others, and during the meal, they inevitably talked about their experiences during the time they had been apart.
Upon hearing that Jiang Shuguang had committed suicide, Wu Hainan was depressed for a long time before she could process this heavy news.
“Uncle Jiang also has his considerations. No matter who falls into the hands of such a large stockpile of nuclear weapons, it will be a devastating blow to humanity.” Wu Hainan’s expression was solemn, and he no longer had the appetite to eat.
But he quickly hid his sadness well and cheered himself up to share his experiences on the road with Lu Sheng and the others.
"The Songbei base has fallen, and everyone has gone to seek refuge with their friends."
"The three people I brought are teammates who have been through thick and thin with me all the way, so their character is definitely not a problem."
Zhao Mujia was somewhat puzzled, "The Songbei base has such a good location and its own farm, so it shouldn't have any worries about food resources. Why is it being disbanded so suddenly?"
“The environment has changed too fast recently,” Wu Hainan sighed. “From marine invasion to desertification, the ocean area is shrinking, and there are also some continental drifts. Now, many species from other continents are invading our territory at an alarming rate.”
Pan Zhi held half a roasted chicken, his hands slurping oil. "A while ago, our Songbei base was attacked by a group of Australian kangaroos and koalas. After those things fused with mutated zombies, their combat power was extremely high. The entire base was beaten so badly that we couldn't fight back at all, and everyone either left or scattered."
"The captain suggested coming to M City, so we contacted Brother Zhao."
Chen Jiao, a young woman in Wu Hainan's team, immediately exposed the truth without any mercy: "It wasn't the captain's suggestion. The base was about to disband, and you rushed to say you wanted to come to M City."
Pan Zhi: "..."
"I could tell the captain wanted to come, so I spoke up for him first."
"Is it the captain who wants to come, or you who wants to come?"
"Yes, it's the captain."
Wu Hainan had no choice but to take responsibility, saying, "Fine, fine, it's my idea to come."
However, Lu Sheng and the others focused on the news that the Songbei base had been wiped out by a group of kangaroos and koalas.
Remembering the news report on TV about a kangaroo beating up two adults, Zhang Xiaojuan quietly moved closer to Lu Sheng and asked, "Sister Lu, do you have any safe and effective ways to hunt kangaroos?"
Before the apocalypse, this thing was only as tall as a person, covered in muscles, and could easily defeat an adult in a fight.
Now that it's mutated and fused with zombies, wouldn't it be able to slash through an entire street?
Lu Sheng shoved the magnetic cannon into his hand without hesitation, saying, "It's better to rely on yourself than on others."
“That’s true. Relying on your parents makes you a princess, relying on your husband makes you a queen, but only relying on yourself makes you a queen.” Zhang Xiaojuan solemnly gripped the magnetic cannon. “I understand. I am the queen, and my confidence shines.”
...
After settling Wu Hainan and the others in, Lu Sheng took the opportunity to check the residents' happiness index in the system.
One look was fine, but after reading it, she almost let out a sharp scream.
The index is already 45!!! It's even lower than the initial 50 points! The color is almost turning gray!
If things continue like this, it's hard to say whether we can even keep our current points, let alone get double points.
Right now, we must find a way to improve the index, or at least stabilize it within a safe range.
Lu Sheng lay on the sturdy, solid buttocks and thought for a long time. The biggest reason affecting the residents' happiness index is the severe desertification outside the safe zone.
Moreover, as desertification continues to worsen, sandstorms and dust storms are becoming increasingly severe.
This is a vicious cycle.
To improve the happiness index, we must fundamentally address the ever-worsening problem of desertification.
Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then simply sat up.
