Because there are many people from the base coming to the supermarket every day.
When Yan Bohou has nothing to do, he will go out and chat with them.
He has been living here for about a week.
As he watched the hotel gradually fill up with people and finally reach full capacity, he began to feel anxious.
When he had nothing to do, he talked with the people staying in the hotel and learned that they, like his family, had escaped from some bases in the south.
Sometimes a family of three fled for their lives, but when they got back, there might only be one person left.
Others were families that died on the road, attacked by zombies, or starved to death due to the difficulty in finding food.
In the end times, human life is sometimes not as strong as a plant. For any reason, a life can be gone.
As Yan Bohou listened to their stories, his expression became more and more serious and he could no longer remain calm.
Finally one morning, he made a decision.
Yan Bohou: "Aliu, we can't live here any longer. We need to go to the big base and continue our work."
Gong Liu was sitting next to Yan Bohou, and when he heard him say that, his expression instinctively fell.
It was obvious that she did not agree with Yan Bohou's words.
She frowned, her tone soft but forceful.
"But are you sure that everything you did before was correct? Is your advisor's research direction correct?"
Gong Liu's words were like a small hammer, hitting Yan Bohou's heart neither lightly nor heavily.
He was silent.
After a long while, he continued speaking.
"Whether it's right or not has already reached this point. The research has reached the most critical step. Success or failure depends on this."
"But have you ever thought about why the mutated zombies first appeared around the base and not elsewhere? We've lived here for a week and haven't seen a single mutated zombie. Don't you think there's something wrong?"
Gong Liu spoke anxiously, and her voice, which was always gentle and reserved, couldn't help but become a little distorted.
Seeing that Yan Bohou was silent, she continued.
"And Shen Ling, you met her, but she didn't recognize you. Her appearance and personality were completely different from what she was like in the base. You..."
Gong Liu wanted to continue speaking, but he caught a glimpse of Yan Bohou's expression and ultimately didn't say the words.
Gong Liu also fell silent.
The room suddenly fell into a long silence.
Yan Bohou's expression was agonized, his brows furrowed so tightly that he almost thought he could pinch a fly to death. He folded his hands in his lap and rubbed them back and forth.
After a long while, he spoke in a deep voice.
"A Liu, if you don't want to go, just stay here with your daughter. I can continue my research on my own. After all, that's my mentor's wish. I..."
Yan Bohou couldn't bear to say the rest.
Gong Liu and Yan Bohou have been married for many years and they also work together, so they have a tacit understanding between them.
Of course she knew what Yan Bohou wanted to say, but...
That's all.
"Since you have made up your mind, I support your decision. When you find an opportunity, we will go to the base."
Yan Bohou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a feeling of being touched came over him.
His wife always supports his decisions, even when she doesn't want to.
"A Liu." Yan Bohou called softly, then hugged Gong Liu in his arms.
The trip to the base was thus arranged.
Yan Bohou also successfully found Qi'er among the team that came to the supermarket from Beiyuan Base to fetch water, and explained his purpose and something to prove his identity.
A big part of the reason why the Beiyuan Base cannot compare with the Southern Base is that it loses in research and does not have as many research talents.
Now Yan Bohou's arrival is like a timely rain.
Qi'er was so happy that he wanted to take Yan Bohou and his family back to the base to see his father immediately.
"Commander Qi'er, I may not be able to go today. I need to go back to the hotel to pack my luggage. Can I go back with you at this time tomorrow?"
Yan Bohou politely refused.
Although Qi'er was eager, he couldn't force the talented person in front of him, so he had to agree.
"Okay, then we have a deal. I'll take you to the base at this time tomorrow."
"good."
The two of them made the appointment.
As soon as Yan Bohou returned to the hotel, he told Gong Liu about this matter. The two of them told their daughter Yan Shishi. The three of them packed their luggage and said goodbye to Song Zhi.
They rented a room for a month and now they want to leave after only living there for a quarter of the time. They must at least inform the owner of the room.
After all, they lived happily during this period of residence, even more comfortably and happily than when they were in the southern base.
"Boss Song, we're leaving for the Beiyuan base tomorrow. There's a laboratory there where I can conduct my research. I came here this time just to talk to you about it."
Yan Bohou said politely.
Song Zhi glanced at him and nodded to show that he understood.
"Okay, then you must pack your things today. If you forget something later, you might not be able to find it."
Yan Bohou: "Of course. And you don't have to refund the room fee. Just consider it as a thank you to Boss Song for taking care of our family of three these past few days."
The money meant nothing to him, and it was they who broke the promise.
"Of course, that's what the contract says after all." Song Zhi didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
After Yan Bohou and Song Zhi finished talking, they secretly glanced in the direction of Shen Ling before leaving.
Shen Ling looked at him indifferently, as if she didn't know him. She didn't look away, nor did she focus
