Li Ke and Mo Bao'er went to the training ground for a week in a row. Even Mo Cheng, who didn't like martial arts, was dragged by Mo Bao'er to train hard.
When facing Li Ke, Mo Bao'er and Mo Cheng were easy targets, while Mo Zuo's several brilliant sparring matches with Li Ke became the talk of the town in the guard team.
Over the past few days, Mo Bao'er, Mo Cheng, and even Mo Zuo have all looked at Li Ke with great enthusiasm, hoping that Li Ke can stay and join them.
Li Ke still didn't give them a definite answer. Her thoughts hadn't changed. Although the Mo family seemed like a good family, Li Ke still didn't want to have too much involvement with them.
Mo Qing was very busy with work, and Li Ke hadn't seen him these past few days.
Two weeks later, the intermittent acid rain finally subsided completely, the sun broke through the haze, and the water level began to recede. Li Ke decided to leave. She went out in the morning to check her motorcycle in the garage in the outer district. She and Chen Jiaojiao, who had just left, walked onto the same road.
Chen Jiaojiao ignored Li Ke and walked ahead in her little leather shoes, her footsteps echoing. You could tell from the sound that she was very irritable.
Li Ke walked unhurriedly behind her, her footsteps steady. Despite her tall stature and long legs, and her slow pace, Chen Jiaojiao couldn't shake her off.
The roads in the central area are neat and flat, and the environment is well maintained. Sometimes, you might get the illusion of a peaceful and idyllic life before the end of the world.
"Why are you always following me?!" Chen Jiaojiao turned around angrily and questioned Li Ke.
Looking at Chen Jiaojiao's uncontrollable bad temper, Li Ke suddenly felt that she was living too easily. Recently, due to her busy training, Li Ke had really forgotten about Chen Ziyue and her brother.
Li Ke asked calmly, "Do you know Chen Qi?"
Chen Jiaojiao was taken aback by his words, then looked at Li Ke with a wary expression: "What do you mean?"
Chen Jiaojiao already knew the hidden story behind Chen Qi's disappearance. Under these circumstances, it was naturally better for Chen Qi to remain missing than to reappear. When the person in front of her suddenly mentioned Chen Qi, she suspected that the other party had ill intentions.
Li Ke casually said, "I heard you have a younger brother named Chen Qi. He saved someone in Guanzhen District before. I think I heard someone named Chen Qi. Maybe he's your brother."
Chen Jiaojiao said coldly, "There are so many people with the same name, it's probably just a coincidence."
Li Ke continued, "Really? He said he has a twin sister and his father's name is Chen something-or-other, I don't remember, but since he wants to find his relatives, it should be easy to find them if they are in the same base."
Chen Jiaojiao's eyes darted away for a moment: "My brother has been missing for a long time. If we wanted to find him, we would have found him long ago. The person you're talking about probably isn't him. I have something to do, so I'll leave first. Don't follow me anymore."
Li Ke watched Chen Jiaojiao quicken her pace and leave, pausing for a moment before continuing forward.
Chen Jiaojiao has little conscience, and Li Zhenzhen is cold-blooded enough. If they were told that Chen Niansheng and his sister are in another district, these two would definitely hide in that district and refuse to acknowledge them.
Li Ke brought Chen Qi into the picture. Although Chen Jiaojiao and the others didn't want Chen Qi to come back, they would definitely try to see him and get some information.
As long as Chen Jiaojiao goes to other districts to look for people, the chances of her running into Chen Niansheng and his group will increase. How things will develop afterward is up to fate.
Li Ke didn't completely wipe them out back then, and she won't now either. It's just that Chen Jiaojiao is too annoying, so she's giving them a little push.
Mo Cheng found Mo Qing and brought up the idea of sending him to mine again, but this time Mo Qing did not agree.
"Why? I'll bring more people this time, and I'll be more careful. My teachers are still waiting for me there," Mo Cheng asked, puzzled.
Mo Qing: "Things have changed, so it's not advisable to take any action for the time being. I will also arrange for someone to bring your teacher and the others back as soon as possible. As for that mining site, I plan to give it up."
Mo Cheng's questions deepened: "Give it away? Give it to whom? What exactly happened?"
Mo Qing sighed: "I received news that the peaceful days won't last much longer. Many places outside have been flooded and destroyed. In order to survive, a global war for land and habitation will soon break out. The military has already developed safe zones. Their intention is to hope that we can move there as soon as possible. Otherwise, they cannot guarantee our safety. Many places on the border are already undefended."
Mo Cheng: "So we have to move? But we've finally settled down and things are going quite well. Are we just going to give up like this?"
Mo Qing had already made up her mind: "There will definitely be losses, but we must move. I plan to report that mining site to the military and talk to them so that we can get some of it."
Mo Cheng hung his head and remained silent. Mo Qing understood her son and knew that his disappointment stemmed from his inability to continue his work.
Mo Qing patted her son's shoulder: "Just take a break. After we're done moving, you can continue this job. I'll try to get you to go with the military; your safety will be even better then."
Mo Cheng was delighted, then asked, "When will the move be finished?"
Mo Qing thought for a moment: "If all goes well, it will be before next winter at the earliest. I've already dispatched an advance team to negotiate with the military and secure our territory."
Mo Cheng asked with concern, "Is this time sure?"
Mo Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is military encrypted communication, there's no mistake."
Mo Cheng: "Didn't you say you cut off contact with the military? Dad, are you lying to me?"
Mo Qing coughed and said, "I'm not lying to you. I really couldn't contact you for a while, and we only recently got back in touch."
It's impossible to completely cut off contact. If there were no news from the outside world, the situation would be truly dire.
