Since both Liu Kai and Qin Luofei have expressed their refusal...
Zhong Linyu was outnumbered and outmatched, so he could only shut his mouth and say nothing more.
Shortly after, the helicopter slowly landed on the rooftop helipad of the Fenghai City shelter, which Liu Kai had been away from for a long time.
After the three disembarked from the plane, they were greeted and led by a group of soldiers to the conference room at the top.
Yang Hongchang and the others were already waiting there.
As usual, Liu Kai activated the scanner to survey the entire shelter.
Just as the data he found showed.
Compared to the initial cold wave, the number of survivors has decreased significantly.
The shelters were never full to begin with, and now they look even more desolate.
Moreover, the outside population has almost completely disappeared, and no new members will be added to the population.
Of course, there's also a piece of good news amidst the bad news.
A large number of small cubicles were freed up, allowing the survivors who were originally crammed together to have a more spacious living environment.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the plague dissipated.
In addition, a separate floor was designated in the central area of the shelter as dormitories for the soldiers stationed in Fenghai City.
I asked Zhong Linyu and learned that the troops no longer needed to guard the oil refinery.
Zhu Chaomin had already taken his virus research materials to the provincial military region.
Moreover, the refinery has been equipped with fully automated equipment again, requiring only a very small number of personnel to remain on site.
Upon entering the shelter, some survivors in a hurry naturally noticed Liu Kai, this oddball.
The weather is so hot and humid that everyone is wearing short sleeves.
He was the only one completely covered by a suit of armor.
But when they saw Liu Kai's face beneath his armor, they were taken aback.
Isn't this Director Qin's boyfriend who disappeared several months ago?!
He also serves as a special security advisor for the Fenghai City shelter.
Ordinary survivors, of course, had no idea what had happened in the provincial military region a few days earlier.
I only found out today that Liu Kai, who had been declared dead, actually came back alive!
The incident of Liu Kai blowing up the Japanese imperial toilet and palace had already caused a great stir among the people.
Coupled with the official eulogy that followed, he was portrayed as a hero who sacrificed his life for his country.
Now that this hero has come back from the dead, he is practically a living legend.
If Liu Kai hadn't been surrounded by a group of people, those few survivors who were passing by would probably have rushed up to ask for autographs.
Soon, the news spread like wildfire.
It seemed to have grown wings and landed in the ears of every survivor in the shelter.
However, this news did not cause much of a stir.
Many people were only slightly surprised and didn't pay any further attention.
After all, life is very difficult these days, and even in the shelter, one's life is uncertain.
The official daily rations of supplies have been reduced again and again.
Let alone ensuring nutrition and boosting immunity, it's difficult to even eat enough.
Who knows when I will die a miserable death from hunger, heat and disease.
Where would one find the extra energy to care about heroes?
Moreover, due to the scarcity of supplies, the work originally assigned to survivors in the shelter has almost come to a standstill.
The most obvious example is cleaning.
The entire shelter reeked, the floors were filthy, and garbage was everywhere.
Many steel railings and stairs rust and perforate in the hot and humid environment, but lack maintenance.
The moment someone steps on it, it wobbles and creaks, as if it might die at any moment.
The survivors were emaciated and numb; the shelters were filthy, reeking, and on the verge of collapse.
If it weren't for the soldiers taking time to maintain it, the foundation beneath the building would probably have collapsed.
Liu Kai couldn't help but sigh when he saw the tragic scene.
It wasn't out of pity for her, but rather out of concern for Qin Luofei, the director.
Only when you're in charge do you realize how expensive daily necessities are; from now on, she'll have to take on the responsibility of managing the household.
The first thing I think about every day when I open my eyes is the eating, drinking, and relieving of hundreds of thousands of people.
Not to mention the countless other troubles.
Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.
After observing along the way, Liu Kai and his two companions arrived at the door of the conference room.
Qin Luofei's best friend and secretary, Chen Yingxue, was waiting at the door.
When the two met, they inevitably held hands and whispered to each other for a while, but it didn't take too long.
The door opened, and everyone in the conference room turned their gazes toward them.
Yang Hongchang naturally took the seat of honor without hesitation.
Below them are Deputy Director Ouyang Wenlian and the shelter's management team.
The hospital director, Huangfu Xin, was someone who had always surprised Liu Kai.
It's unbelievable that the old man, at his advanced age, could withstand the devastation of yet another natural disaster.
He even looks quite healthy and robust.
Looking at all the familiar faces in the room, Liu Kai couldn't help but feel a sense of awe once again, marveling at the wonder of time.
Everyone looked on with a sense of loss, as if they hadn't seen each other for a long time, but Liu Kai felt as if only a few days had passed.
Besides these familiar faces, there was also an unfamiliar face.
Three seats were reserved for Liu Kai and others next to Yang Hongchang.
Next to her was a serious-looking girl.
The young girl wore an elegant, dark blue dress with a distinctly ancient feel.
Although the long dress had no brand logo, it fit her perfectly.
It perfectly matches the girl's figure, which is not overly voluptuous but just right.
Even someone who doesn't know much about clothing can tell that this outfit is probably an extremely luxurious custom-made piece!
In this apocalyptic world, how can one still wear such brand-new custom-made clothing?
Therefore, from the very beginning, everyone in the meeting room was speculating about the girl's identity.
