Zheng Quchi: "..."
Half a month? She couldn't wait even three days. Faced with the choice between taking the risk and dying from severe injury, infection, and sepsis, she... chose to live.
"Then I'll trouble you to take me to find Brother Ya."
"Let's go, we've already scouted the location. We can come back to move things next time. I'll take you there now."
Moving things?
What are they moving?
Apart from some heavy military equipment and defenses, there doesn't seem to be anything of value left in this camp.
Thank you.
