However, Dong Xinran was unsure of the truth of the matter. He said in a deep voice, "Let's leave it at that for now. I will investigate as soon as possible and give everyone an explanation."
Since Dong Xinran had said so, everyone naturally stopped pressing the matter and dispersed.
......................................
It was already dark. Ji Hao had originally planned to leave with Gu Wanqing, but the events that had happened earlier piqued his interest, so he decided to stay and see who was behind it all.
Originally, Gu Wanqing and Pei Man lived together, but now that Ji Hao has arrived, Pei Man still refuses to move out. With no other option, Ji Hao has chosen a slightly larger room for Gu Wanqing to move in with him.
After closing the room door, Ji Hao asked, "What's going on with this refuge camp? I feel like something's off."
Gu Wanqing said, "I haven't been here long and don't know much about him, but everyone secretly hates Dong Xinran. This villain often withholds everyone's food to force the women in the team to compromise. He doesn't even spare the women who have husbands. Apart from me, almost all the women in the base have been harmed by him."
Ji Hao said, "That's normal. If it weren't for chasing women, why would he set up a refuge camp? Wouldn't he be more carefree living alone?"
Gu Wanqing said, "Hey, you've gone too far. Do you men set up refugee camps just to sleep with women?"
Ji Hao said, "You've been through so much, you should know how cruel the apocalypse is. There's no such thing as getting something for nothing and eating and drinking for free."
Gu Wanqing said, "That's true, but I want to leave, but Dong Xinran won't let me go. That's outrageous."
Ji Hao held her small hand and said softly, "Don't worry, with me here, no one can bully you."
Gu Wanqing's heart was pounding, and she didn't dare meet Ji Hao's gaze. She whispered, "When we kissed before, that was my first kiss."
"I never expected that you, who used to be so reserved, would actually force a kiss on me," Ji Hao teased.
Gu Wanqing blushed for a while after hearing this. She didn't think much of it at the time, but now that she thought about it, she felt embarrassed: "I was mainly touched. You came to pick me up personally after just one phone call. There aren't many people in this world who are truly good to me, but you are definitely the most special one."
Ji Hao laughed and said, "What a coincidence, I think so too."
Gu Wanqing said irritably, "You get all excited over the little bit of sunshine. Fine, I'm not talking to you anymore. Let's go to sleep. It's so cold."
Then she added, "There are two beds, so we can each sleep in one."
"Why bother with all that? Let's just sleep together." Ji Hao reached out and hugged Gu Wanqing, saying ambiguously, "The night is long, why don't we talk about our life ideals?"
"Get lost." Gu Wanqing broke free from Ji Hao's embrace, looking shy and timid.
Ji Hao chuckled inwardly; things were looking promising.
Gu Wanqing glared at Ji Hao and sighed, "Let's go to sleep early. We won't be hungry if we're asleep. This damn apocalypse."
Ji Hao asked, "Are you very hungry?"
Gu Wanqing looked at Ji Hao as if he were an idiot and said speechlessly, "Isn't that obvious? Dong Xinran withheld food from the women at the base and forced everyone to compromise. Do you think he would let me eat my fill?"
Ji Hao said, "You should have said so earlier."
Gu Wanqing said, "What's the use of me saying anything? You didn't bring anything with you. Do you think you can conjure food out of thin air?"
Ji Hao chuckled, waved his hand in front of Gu Wanqing, and said mysteriously, "Come on, I'll show you a magic trick, so watch carefully."
Gu Wanqing stood with her hands on her hips, still wearing an expression of pity for someone with intellectual disabilities: "Fine, I'd like to see how you conjure up food."
"Don't blink!" Ji Hao said, "Balala Energy, Magic Transformation!"
The moment he finished speaking, Ji Hao had a pizza in his hand, still radiating heat, which looked incredibly appetizing.
Gu Wanqing was dumbfounded and asked in disbelief, "How...how did you do that?"
Ji Hao explained, "I forgot to tell you before, but I'm not only a lightning ability user, but also a space ability user. Otherwise, how do you think I made the supplies in Wang Youcai and Liu Zhiyong's shopping malls disappear?"
Gu Wanqing thought about it and agreed. Even if someone had superpowers, it would be absolutely impossible for them to do everything they did back then, except for spatial manipulation.
Ji Hao explained his abilities to Gu Wanqing in detail, and also said that he had enough supplies to last several lifetimes, so he didn't need to worry about food at all.
After hearing this, Gu Wanqing's eyes widened, and she exclaimed that it was outrageous.
"By the way, since you have a lot of supplies, you must have plenty of large batteries and heaters, right?" Gu Wanqing asked expectantly.
Ji Hao nodded: "Of course we don't need it."
Gu Wanqing cheered, "That's great! I heard from others that communications have been restored to some extent, and cell phones can now make satellite calls. But my phone was out of battery, and I begged Dong Xinran for a long time, even subtly suggesting that I could contact my best friend to come over, before he finally let me charge it a little. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to contact you."
Ji Hao opened his spatial storage and took out a large battery, a heater, and also steak, lobster, abalone...
Looking at the various supplies, Gu Wanqing was filled with amazement. As expected of a space ability user, the advantage in the apocalypse was truly enormous.
It was completely dark when Ji Hao drew the curtains and took a large wooden board to seal the window shut. He wanted to use a battery to turn on the nightlight. If people looked in from the outside, the window would be lit, which could easily cause unnecessary trouble. After all, only Dong Xinran's room in the refugee camp had a generator, and Ji Hao didn't want to expose the secret of his space.
