"Why won't you let us in? We have the crystal core. Open the door and let us in."
"What's going on with your base? Why aren't you letting people in?"
No matter how the people at the city gate cursed or talked, Shuguang City would not open the gates or respond.
We can't blame them for being cold-blooded and ruthless, and we must prevent these people carrying dirty bacteria from entering Dawn City.
You said that everyone has bacteria?
That's still much better than this group of people living near a pile of zombie corpses. What they carry are biological fungi that are very likely to mutate into monsters, zombies and other non-human races.
As early as September, all the residents living outside Dawn City moved into Dawn City.
They are responsible for the safety of these 500 residents.
After cursing for a while and kicking the city gate but failing to open it, the people gathered at the city gate gradually dispersed and went to look for their next place to live.
After hearing about the emerging base, the people of Dawn City were thankful that they had come to Dawn City earlier. Mingliang's family and Haozi even felt that they had narrowly escaped death.
Qi's mother was a little worried.
Over the past few days, she has been very clear that Dawn City will not allow non-residents to spend the night here, but now something more terrifying than zombies has appeared outside. Can she be safe and sound if she goes back and forth every day?
Even if there are no mutant rat zombies where she lives, what if there are rats?
She wanted to stay in Dawn City.
But they only accepted 500 people.
Qi Yueyue noticed her mother's worry and pulled her hand: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Qi's mother didn't want Qi Yueyue, who was already seven or eight months pregnant, to worry about her spending the night outside.
Mingliang and Qi's mother avoided Qi Yueyue and talked about this matter. Qi's mother still wanted to live and wanted to see her precious grandchildren being born. She didn't want to be infected by those mutated animals in the rented house outside and turn into a monster that was neither human nor zombie.
In the end, they chose to take advantage of the fact that Dawn City did not allow overnight stays.
The security in Dawn City works in two shifts.
Qi's mother left Shuguang City at 11 o'clock in the evening, and Mingliang also accompanied her. Then after twelve o'clock, the two of them entered Shuguang City, went into the observation room, hid in the observation room and observed, and never came out.
Xu Bai received the system notification immediately about them taking advantage of the loophole.
She thought for a long time before she remembered who Mingliang and Qi's mother were. Knowing that there was a pregnant woman at home, she turned a blind eye.
It is not easy to get pregnant in the apocalypse. It is not that it was easy before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse, atmospheric factors have quietly changed the air layer, and the air environment and other factors make it difficult for the human body to conceive a child. And after getting pregnant, waiting for the stage of delivery is even more difficult. It is not certain that you can find a doctor, and even if there is a doctor, he may not be able to afford the high fees or be able to give birth smoothly.
You should know that in the past life, there was a place where, in order to increase the population and allow the human race to continue, a new profession emerged - surrogate mother.
Pregnant mothers have the best living environment and the best diet, and they are protected by many people in their living places to ensure that they can give birth to their babies smoothly. After they give birth, they will recover their bodies and then have a second child until they can no longer have children.
But there are even fewer people who have been surrogate mothers.
The baby of Mingliang's family is the first baby in Shuguang City.
In Xu Bai's eyes, the profession of surrogate mother is somewhat deformed. Children are the fruit of love and should not be turned into reproductive machines for survival. She hopes not to repeat the same mistakes in the future.
Xu Bai's gaze moved to the system screen, where the hospital had been built but not yet put into use. After pondering for a while, she opened the map she had collected, wrote and drew on it, and finally made a decision.
She is going to South City.
Nancheng is the southernmost city in Huaguo. Before the apocalypse, it took a day to travel from Zhe City to Nancheng by high-speed rail, but in the apocalypse, it could take as little as half a month, or as long as two or three months.
No one can predict what will happen on the way from Zhe City to Nancheng.
She flipped through the books she brought back from the library and learned that there was a very famous research institute in Nancheng. The institute had many outstanding scientific and technological personnel, whose excellence was almost comparable to that of the First Research Institute in Shangjing City.
The fastest way from here to Shangjing City would take more than a month, and then it would take at least half a year to find the person and return to the city.
Half a year is enough for the zombies' level and performance to be raised to a higher level.
Xu Bai was studying the route to South City. He accidentally looked out the window and saw snowflakes falling outside.
Xu Bai was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so he ran out of the house quickly. As soon as he opened the door, a cold wind blew and he shivered with cold.
Winter comes overnight!
It started snowing heavily.
Winter has come early, that’s bad!
Xu Bai returned to the house, wrapped himself in a coat and a down jacket, and went to the office holding an umbrella.
He took the megaphone and said, "Dear residents, please don't be afraid. It's not a zombie attack. It's not a zombie attack. Winter has arrived overnight. Please check on your family members and see if anything has happened."
Xu Bai held a loudspeaker in one hand and an umbrella in the other, and walked while repeating something for everyone to wake up.
Yesterday, when the weather was still at its hottest, no one had time to prepare for winter. The only things they had were the 300 down jackets recently distributed by Dawn City, but another 200 people might not even have a long-sleeved shirt or even a thin sheet.
Such people could freeze to death in their sleep at any time when winter comes overnight.
Xu Bai walked to the side of the warehouse and picked up two quilts. When passing by the farmland, he took a look at the crops that were all frozen, sighed with regret, then walked to the gate, woke up the two people in the observation room, walked up to the high wall, and wrapped the security guard who had fainted from the cold with the quilts he brought.
Zhe City is a city with little snow, and it is common for it not to snow for eight or ten years.
After seeing the snow, no one took it seriously at first. They just asked one person to go downstairs and get down jackets for themselves and other colleagues. However, they didn't expect the snow to get heavier and colder.
The four or five people who were on night watch had just put on their down jackets. Even though they huddled together for warmth, they soon passed out from the cold. They didn't even have time to use a loudspeaker to notify the residents.
After Mingliang was woken up, he saw Xu Bai and thought that he was not allowed to spend the night in the observation room. He was about to persuade Xu Bai to make some concessions, but a gust of cold wind blew over, and he was so cold that he couldn't even speak. Until Xu Bai closed the door of the observation room, Mingliang only felt, but he could still feel the coldness all around him.
He rubbed his hands to warm himself up, and then he thought of his mother-in-law in the observation room next door. He didn't care whether he was cold or not, and ran to the next room wearing only a short-sleeved shirt. He saw his mother-in-law curled up in the corner and shivering with cold.
