When Banxia and her companion rode the mutated eagle back to their temporary residence, Su Yao and the others were playing video games together.
"You're back. What does the mutated eagle want with you?"
Fang Yunyun took a moment to turn back and ask Banxia.
"Things are a bit complicated. I'll tell you after we finish eating."
After finishing their meal, Banxia led Su Yao and the others to the rooftop, then waved her hand, and dozens of mutated animals appeared in front of them, looking bewildered.
Su Yao exclaimed, "Did you guys rob the zoo?"
Banxia shrugged: "These animals really are from a zoo."
She explained the origin of the animals, and Su Yao couldn't help but feel regretful, "It would be great if there were lions, tigers, and black bears among them."
Cai Yuan and Fang Yunyun couldn't help but worry: "With so many animals, do you have enough food?"
Banxia had already prepared an excuse: "They will find their own food."
Although these mutated animals are thin, they are not without fighting ability, and it is not difficult for them to support themselves.
Zhao Xuan replied without hesitation, "Do you have any pasture seeds? I can help you encourage their growth."
Banxia didn't stand on ceremony: "Yes, Brother Xuan, I'll give it to you later."
She stuffed the mutated animals back into her spatial storage. "Go back, it's so cold."
If we consider the seasons before the apocalypse, this is winter.
“By the way,” Cai Yuan suddenly spoke up, “what are your thoughts on Xiaoying’s testimony?”
Banxia and the others couldn't help but fall silent. This confession involved a large number of people and covered a wide range of areas, including some who held high positions. If it wasn't handed over to someone who would never betray them, they would be in danger.
Su Xiao spoke first: "Anyway, we absolutely cannot hand it over to the people at the base."
Putting aside their personal grudges with Li Kongyuan, Li Kongyuan's muddle-headed behavior doesn't seem like that of a reliable person.
The others understood this principle as well, but although they had a certain social status before the apocalypse, they did not have connections in the relevant departments. Even if they wanted to submit their confessions, they did not know who to contact for the time being.
Su Yao scratched the back of his head: "Weren't we planning to travel around? At worst, we can go to the official base every time we arrive to listen to the survivors. It'll be a bit slow, but at least it'll be safe."
To judge whether someone is reliable, don't listen to what they say, but observe what they do. If a leader can ensure the well-being of survivors in today's difficult circumstances, then there's at least a 99% chance they are reliable, and they can afford the remaining 1% risk.
Banxia hadn't uttered a word since the discussion began about how to handle Xiaoyinghua's testimony. Nanxing couldn't help but gently pinch her cheek: "Wife, what are you thinking about?"
Banxia looked at him blankly: "Huh?"
"What are you thinking about?" Nanxing pulled her to sit down.
Banxia then realized she was already back in her room. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "It's nothing."
She knew someone who would never betray her and who had the ability to investigate everything thoroughly, but...
Banxia looked into Nanxing's deep eyes: "Nanxing, will you always be with me?"
Nanxing's eyes were filled with a gentle smile: "Yes, even in death."
“Then let’s go to Base S,” Banxia took a deep breath, “and hand the evidence over to the person in charge, Yan Ning.”
Yan Ning was born into a revolutionary family. Before his death, he served in the Air Force and was awarded the First-Class Merit Citation three times. His loyalty was beyond question.
More importantly, Banxia was Yan Ning's key assistant in her previous life, and he knew her style of doing things very well. He knew that she was a person who wholeheartedly loved the people and the motherland.
As long as they hand over the evidence, Yan Ning will clean up the traitors, even if it costs her her life.
Banxia made her decision and immediately pulled Nanxing aside to tell Su Yao and the others her thoughts.
Su Yao and the others were a little curious: "How do you know Yan Ning is reliable?"
Banxia took out a tablet and handed it over: "Watch this documentary."
The documentary focuses on the Yan family.
The Yan family has been scholars for generations. Starting with Yan Ning's grandfather, they abandoned their studies to join the army. Up to Yan Ning's daughter, there has been no exception. They can be said to be a family of loyal martyrs.
If we can't trust people like this, then who can we trust?
S City and A City are about 2,000 kilometers apart. Even before the apocalypse, it would have taken a whole day to drive there. With the current road conditions, it would take at least one or two months.
If another accident occurs along the way, it may take three to five months to reach the destination, or even perish along the way.
Banxia hesitated and said, "I want to go alone with Nanxing."
She has her own space, so no matter how great the danger, she can at least survive. There's no need for Su Yao and the others to take the risk.
Su Yao and the others did not reply immediately, but remained silent for a while before calmly saying, "Give us some time to sort things out."
Previously, saying that one should travel around was more of a self-comforting statement about not having a home. If one could truly settle down, who would want to travel around?
An hour later, Cai Yuan and Zhao Xuan knocked on Banxia's door: "Ah Xuan and I have decided to go with you."
The Su family of three from next door also came over: "We'll go too."
The three families have supported each other for so long in the apocalypse, so they can be considered family in another sense. Who could just stand by and watch their family member risk their life alone?
Su smiled and said, "There are so many mutated animals in the Half Summer Space. Even if we can't beat them when we encounter danger, we can definitely escape."
Everyone laughed when she said that.
There are camels and elephants on land, eagles and swans in the air, and hippos in the water. It's impossible to be so unlucky as to encounter all three kinds of monsters—land, sea, and air—at once.
Having decided to go to City S together, the three families rested well overnight to recharge before starting preparations.
