Chapter 82 Xiao Huan is missing
Chen Qingqing originally only intended to get enough weapons to protect her family, but she didn't expect Wu Yue to be so sincere and actually give out so many at once.
Even if the weapons are used for a small shelter, it is more than enough.
According to Chen Qingqing's original plan, she could just find a place to send a few boxes of things, but with so many boxes... she would have to find a new place.
Chen Qingqing was thinking about how to delay time. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard Shang Li who got out of the car say, "Sister, the tire seems to be a little flat."
Chen Qingqing checked the tire and it was indeed a little crazy, maybe it was pierced by something on the road.
Wu Yue immediately suggested: "Why don't we stay here for one night? It's getting late. Let's have a good rest before we continue on our journey."
"I'll send someone to clean up your car and reinforce it in all directions. What do you think?"
Chen Qingqing had wanted to reinforce the car a long time ago. This should have been done at the beginning of the apocalypse, but she forgot about it because of all the things she had to do.
Besides, there was no car repair shop in Fengwei Village.
Now that she had finally found a reliable base, she could take this opportunity to rest temporarily and find a suitable place to store weapons, killing two birds with one stone.
Chen Qingqing nodded: "Then I'll trouble you."
Wu Yue smiled and said: "I should thank you... I'll send someone to take you to your residence later, please wait."
As the leader of the base, Wu Yue must have a lot of things to do. Chen Qingqing didn't want to delay her, so she nodded and said: "You go first."
Not long after Wu Yue left, Lao Lu, who was chatting with Xiao Huan and Shang Li by the car, received a call and led Chen Qingqing and the others to their residence.
The two cars arrived at a modern apartment area one after the other. It was very prosperous here before, but now in order to save resources, everyone is arranged in one building.
There is only one apartment with lights on in the huge apartment area.
Lao Lu led the group upstairs, saying, "There are two households on the first floor, one with two bedrooms and one living room, just right for you to live in."
They soon arrived at the 11th floor, and the two households opposite each other were both empty.
Inside was a simply decorated house, probably no one had lived there before, with only a simple sofa, coffee table, two bedrooms with two beds, and a bedside table next to each bed.
Lao Lu explained, "These furniture are all new, we moved them back from a furniture factory before, and I heard that this mattress was sold at a very high price before the end of the world."
Chen Qingqing looked at the label and it was true.
Before the end of the world, ordinary wage earners had to work for a year to afford this mattress, but now it's free, and it's yours if you can grab it.
In fact, Wu Yue and her friends could have moved things from other unoccupied houses, but they didn't... They seem to be quite concerned about the quality of life.
Lao Lu saw their confusion and explained, "The people living in this apartment are all the most important people in our 73rd Base, so we focus on such details."
"And the kitchen utensils are also the best."
"This is indeed a detail!" Shang Li was amazed.
Lao Lu smiled and said, "See if there is anything in the car that needs to be taken up. If not, I will drive the car away and reinforce it."
Chen Qingqing took out a box of cigarettes from her pocket and handed it to Lao Lu: "Thank you for your hard work."
Lao Lu was stunned and quickly pushed it back: "I can't take it. This is a task assigned to me by the boss. I will definitely do it for you."
"Don't worry, I just collected these cigarettes casually. Although tobacco is a hot commodity now, no one in my family smokes."
"And we don't plan to find a shelter to trade anymore."
"If you don't want it, we don't need it."
Chen Qingqing is naturally not a child who spends money.
She saw that there was only a little bit of cigarette butt left on Lao Lu's ear, but Lao Lu was still reluctant to throw it away.
Even if he is a patrol captain, he has to spend the money he earns wisely.
"Of course, I do have something to ask you."
Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "I want to replace the car glass with the best bulletproof glass, and a baby seat."
The former is not difficult to find, and the 73rd Base is definitely not short of it. It's
just that most people don't deliberately collect baby seats, so it takes some effort.
Originally, she would look for a safety seat in one or two months, but Chen Qingqing didn't expect that Xuanxuan would grow so fast. In just one month, she grew to the size of other children in six or seven months. The current safety cradle can no longer accommodate her.
For Xuanxuan's safety, she must prepare a safety seat.
Lao Lu nodded seriously:
"Don't worry, since you are leaving tomorrow, I will make sure to arrange everything for you tonight."
Lao Lu did not refuse this time, as it was not easy to find a safety seat.
"By the way, do you have livestock at your base?" Chen Qingqing suddenly asked.
Lao Lu scratched his head: "We raised them before, but the boss suddenly asked us to kill them in large quantities some time ago, and now we don't have any left."
"Everyone is quite dissatisfied with this matter... Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Chen Qingqing's face gradually became solemn, and she forced herself to calm down and curled her lips: "Nothing, just asking casually."
Lao Lu didn't think much about it: "You guys are full of meat, right? Someone will come to deliver food later, you wait a moment."
After Lao Lu left, everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Chen Qingqing, who looked serious.
He Chuan and his friends didn't know what happened, but Ming Peilan knew.
Leaning on a cane, she pulled Chen Qingqing into the kitchen and closed the door: "Qingqing, does Wu Yue also have superpowers?"
Otherwise, how could Wu Yue just be stuck in this time period, slaughtering livestock in large quantities, and not leaving a single one alive!
Chen Qingqing was in a complicated mood.
After all, there were too many possibilities.
Was Wu Yue reincarnated like herself?
Did Wu Yue have the ability to predict the future like Chu Yiyi?
Or...
Wu Yue knew Chu Yiyi.
The last possibility was what Chen Qingqing least wanted to see. She would rather Wu Yue was a superpower.
"I don't know... Aunt Ming."
Chen Qingqing just felt a headache.
If it was really the latter, then they must be in danger now.
But Chen Qingqing had just ignited a spark of trust in humans.
She felt at first sight that Wu Yue was someone she could trust, so she felt at ease to stay for one night. And the appearance of the base would not lie.
The base is like the leader's child. The base will be like the leader.
Ming Peilan held Chen Qingqing's hand and sighed lightly: "Child, our family will support you no matter what decision you make."
"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one."
Chen Qingqing clenched her fists slightly: "Let's go..."
"Bang!"
Suddenly a gunshot rang out in the living room close at hand.
"Shangli! Shangli!"
The shouts of the crowd and Shangli's wailing blended together. Chen Qingqing's brain "boomed". She pushed open the door and looked into the living room. She saw Shangli lying in a pool of blood.
Chen Qingqing felt as if her throat was strangled: "...Where is Xiaohuan?"
Xiaohuan was gone.
