Chapter 96 Get married!
"You damn old monkey! He's threatening you." Shu Lan was so angry that she couldn't even sleep anymore. She slammed the bed hard. "I just don't know where he is now. Otherwise, I'll capture him and use all kinds of supernatural powers on him every day."
Shu Maomao said, "In the other timeline, he is in District 15."
Shu Lan said, "If he's still alive, he might be in District 15 right now. After all, the experimental base is the closest to District 15. Go to sleep! Go to the radio station tomorrow to talk to them."
Shu Maomao hugged Shu Lan's arms tightly and closed his eyes. Not long after, his breathing became even.
Shu Lan, who was the first to say that she wanted to sleep, opened her eyes instead, with a clear look in her eyes.
She had too many thoughts in her head and couldn't sleep.
She was wondering why Li Yanli, who was at the end of her strength, chose to explode at that time that night?
Is it for her?
She quickly scolded herself again: Stop being narcissistic, Shu Lan, who do you think you are? Do they know you? Should they try their best for you?
Li Yanli must have been anxious when he heard that she was going to give birth to a little plunderer to inherit his fate.
However, there were indeed many suspicious points that night. You know, zombies move much faster than ordinary people at night, but she was able to run back to Ci'an city safely from the Jiangzhou Experimental Base with a group of ordinary people.
She remembered that the other psychics were protecting Dr. Zhao as he left, but Li Yanli stayed where he was, so it was very likely that Li Yanli used his power to help them, ordinary people, stop the zombies from catching up.
Then why did he destroy the power grid?
Thinking of this, Shu Lan had another narcissistic idea, but it also seemed like the correct answer -
Li Yanli destroyed the power grid to give her a chance to escape.
He probably didn't know how much longer he could hold on, so he had to use the power of the zombies to force the other party to open the door so that she could leave in the chaos. Otherwise, after he died, she would be caught by Zhao Houzi and continue to give birth to little plunderers.
An indescribable emotion surged in Shu Lan's heart.
He had created an escape route for her, but she selfishly went against his wishes and still gave birth to a little predator.
Because of this guilty conscience, Shu Lan had decided that she would definitely avoid this big guy in the future, not let him know about Shu Maomao's existence, and not start any disputes with him.
But only now did she realize that the person had died a long time ago, which was why there had been no news from him. Shu Lan felt very complicated, a little guilty, and a little sorry for the other person.
With mixed emotions, Shu Lan fell asleep and had a dream. She dreamed that a man whose face she couldn't see clearly but she knew was very handsome and that he was Li Yanli found her, took her hand and said, "Since you have given birth to my child, we should get married."
Shu Lan refused to comply and shouted: I was wrong. I can repay you in other ways, but I don’t know you and I don’t want to marry you!
Shu Maomao rushed out: "Let go of my mommy, you bad rat! I'll beat you to death!"
Then the man and Shu Maomao started fighting back and forth. Shu Lan was terrified and realized that Shu Maomao seemed to be unable to win. In desperation, she raised her hands and said, "Kill! Don't hit my son, I'll kill him!"
Then she woke up and the quilt on her body was gone.
Shu Maomao was sitting next to her with a serious face. She said firmly, "Mommy, you kicked the quilt. You're having a nightmare."
Shu Lan blinked, her brain in a state of shutdown, still automatically replaying that messy dream.
"Um...I had a nightmare."
Shu Lan sat up. The sky in the space gradually brightened. She frowned and muttered, "What a crazy dream."
After washing up, the system reminded the mother and son as they were about to leave: "Host, the temperature plummeted from 15 degrees Celsius to zero last night. The real world is currently experiencing inclement weather with rain and snow. You will need to add two more layers of clothing to ensure your physical comfort."
Shu Lan returned to the room and took out autumn clothes and sweaters for Shu Maomao.
Shu Maomao didn't want to wear it because it would be too bulky and uncomfortable. "Mommy, I have fire powers, so I won't be cold."
Shu Lan said, "There's a kind of coldness called your mother being afraid that you'll be cold. I've taken it out, so just put it on."
Shu Maomao had no choice but to change into the clothes because he couldn't convince Shu Lan. Shu Lan also added two more pieces of clothes for herself.
Back to the real world, she chose to land at the entrance of the cafeteria. The usually bustling dormitory complex was now desolate and silent. Only the people from the cafeteria who had to come on time to make breakfast were walking towards her cautiously, hunching their necks in the cold wind.
"Morning... Commander."
They were trembling as they spoke.
Shu Lan glanced at the other person's thin clothes and nodded gently: "Well, go in."
In order to reduce the burden on the road, the people coming from District 12 did not bring any warm clothes. Now they are wearing old clothes picked up from the ruins of District 9.
Besides clothing, bedding for sleeping at night was also very important. However, the missile explosion had burned many areas of District 9 to ashes. If they wanted to replenish their winter supplies, they had to go further afield. They had searched several times before, but when the temperature dropped significantly, they found that it was still not enough.
Humans are very fragile creatures, and a drop in temperature overnight caused many people to catch colds. Without sufficient medicine, Shu Lan could only add ginger soup to their breakfast to barely restore their blood.
She also didn't want this group of people to continue working in the rain and snow without warm clothes, so she announced a one-day work stoppage. Everyone stayed indoors to keep warm, and she took people out to look for things.
As soon as he gathered his men and drove the convoy to the edge of District 9, Shu Maomao said, "Mommy, there are guests again."
Shu Lan glanced at the distant ruined city in the rearview mirror.
Although the outside world called those who surrendered to District 9 deserters, traitors, and cowards, the signal Shu Lan had sent out successfully reminded them that this place was a safe choice for survival, and there would definitely be people who listened and wanted to come and see what was going on in District 9.
It would be a waste of fuel to turn back now.
"Let them in. We'll come back to receive the guests after we finish our search."
Not long after, Shu Maomao used his superb hearing to hear the key information and said, "The people coming are from District 15."
"District 15?"
The sudden cooling crisis distracted Shu Lan's attention. When she heard the words "District 15", she remembered the old monkey Zhao who was forgotten in the corner.
She raised her lips and smiled: "Okay, very good, I was planning to look for them, speak of the devil and he will appear."
…
Back to forty-two days ago, after the Zombie King airborne and bombed the human communication channel, various bases basically gave up using radio to communicate.
Except for that traitor in District 9.
They were not afraid of the Zombie King at all, and still read their diary entries on the public channel every day, including what delicious food they had eaten today, what difficulties they encountered in building the underground base, and what "wise and brave" decisions their commander Qin Xiaoshuang had made.
The more I listened, the more it sounded like a utopian new world, where everyone lived in harmony and friendship, had enough food and drink, and worked wholeheartedly towards the same goal.
The only strange thing is that the words "superpowers" and "zombies" were never mentioned in District 9's diary.
As a result, the most intense conflict in District 15's history broke out. The main commander Jing Hongyu wanted to take all the superpowers to support District 32, which was about to go to war with the Zombie King, but the deputy commander Ji Lan insisted on leaving the superpowers behind to escort all the survivors to District 9.
"Senior, don't be fooled by the fake news from District 9. They eat meat almost every day. Who would believe such nonsense at a time like this?"
Ji Lan said firmly, "I believe it. District 10's Commander Lin Yi said before that his space could feed the entire world, and he was the first to surrender to District 9."
Jing Hongyu was so anxious that he was grabbing his hair. "Have you forgotten what kind of person that Commander Lin is? He boasts about how wealthy he is, but other bases are short of supplies. He refuses to give them seeds even when they beg him for them, saying nothing unless they bring their people to District 10 to submit to him. Do you think a man like that can ensure the entire base has meat every day? Besides, the current commander of District 9 isn't Lin Yi, but a woman named Qin Xiaoshuang."
