Chapter 225 Anomaly Detected



Li Xiao dared not put any more things into the space. She had already stuffed so much in; if she did, people might become suspicious.

Then, as if he had just thought of something, Shao Jie asked Li Xiao with a puzzled look, "Xiao Xiao, how much have you been pretending? Can you still pretend?"

Li Xiao: "..."

Why do you always remember me? Thank you.

Li Xiao couldn't help but complain, how come this kid's brain works so fast?

"What? You have a problem with that?"

"No, I don't think they can hold much at all, but you've filled up way too much. They can't compare at all."

"Can't I even level up or something? It's not like I can't level up."

Shao Jie's eyes widened in surprise. "Ah, Xiaoxiao, you've leveled up! That's awesome!"

Li Xiao didn't want to continue the topic. "Hmm."

"Alright, isn't it good to pretend? Why do you care so much? Watch your surroundings." Tian Yi slapped Shao Jie on the back, diverting his attention.

At this moment, Li Xiao was quite grateful to Tian Tian; that girl did a good job.

Li Xiao turned her head and saw Cheng Shaolin staring at her intently, which startled her.

Staring at me like that is a little scary, isn't it?

"Brother, you look scary like that, okay?" Li Xiao glared at Cheng Shaolin, who then laughed.

"What's wrong? Were you scared? I didn't expect you to be scared. Okay, I apologize. I'm sorry."

Li Xiao rolled her eyes and snorted through her nose.

"What are you staring at? Honestly."

Cheng Shaolin chuckled and said, "What? Can't I look?" As he spoke, he tucked a stray strand of hair behind Li Xiao'er's ear.

Li Xiao ignored him and continued to examine the items in the space.

Seeing that Li Xiao was ignoring him, Cheng Shaolin stopped teasing her and focused on his surroundings.

"It's getting late, you must all be tired. Get in the car and rest for a bit."

"Okay, let's go."

Everyone boarded the bus one by one and rested against the back of their seats.

"Xiaoxiao, is there any room left?" Yu Yanbin's biggest concern right now was how much space there was to put his things.

"Wait a minute, let me tidy up."

"Okay, no rush. Take your time organizing."

Li Xiao took out eight bottles of water from his spatial storage and had them distribute them, while he himself entered the spatial storage to check on the state of the materials.

I organized all the items that I had stored in the storage space, stacking them as high as possible to leave more room.

Li Xiao didn't know how her space had been upgraded. It felt a bit larger, but she didn't know why.

I won't think about things I can't think of; it's always better to be a little older.

You'll find out eventually.

While they were resting, several more cars arrived on the street, and more than one convoy came onto the street.

That makes sense. There were only so many factories in that row, so when there were no other options, people would look around. And that's why the row behind was an easy choice.

"Looks like there's no point in fighting here anymore," Shao Jie said, glancing at the passing vehicles.

"There's nothing strange about it. Everyone will choose the better and more advantageous path for themselves," Zheng Yongnian said calmly, showing no surprise.

"Captain, what are our plans for the future?" Shao Jie didn't say anything after hearing this, but turned to his captain and asked.

Yu Yanbin raised an eyebrow, his voice flat. "If we don't find it here, let's try another direction and look around."

"Okay, sure." Shao Jie nodded.

If this doesn't work, can't we try another direction? Of course we can.

After resting for about an hour, the Chaoyang team slowly started driving forward at a leisurely pace.

Along the way, you can also see cars parked in some factories, and occasionally people carrying things back and forth.

Li Xiao glanced at the sign on the gate and then looked away.

"Brother, have you noticed that there aren't any zombies on this road?" Li Xiao looked back and forth on both sides of the road. "Did you kill a lot before?"

Cheng Shaolin followed his gaze for a moment, then turned back to Li Xiao and said, "Maybe, they killed a lot that day. Not here...?" As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked out the window, his voice trailing off.

Li Xiao: ?

"elder brother?"

Cheng Shaolin turned around when he heard Li Xiao's voice. "Hmm?" Seeing Li Xiao staring at him with wide eyes, his heart softened for no reason.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about what you just said, there are a lot less here."

"Hmm, maybe they all went home for vacation when the apocalypse first started?"

Cheng Shaolin chuckled and patted Li Xiao's head. "How could everyone have a holiday?" He paused for a moment as he said this.

Then why are there really not many zombies on this street?

I was so busy finding factories and supplies that I didn't notice these things before, but now that I think about it, something feels off.

Looking out the window at the factory streets shrouded in a light drizzle, Li Xiao didn't notice anything amiss.

"There's a food factory up ahead, would you like to go take a look?"

Li Xiao and Cheng Shaolin both turned to look ahead, where Xiao Peng, who was driving, was speaking.

"How do you know?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Meng Yang answered, "There's a sign at the corner that says there's a food factory up ahead. It looks like they sell snacks and the like."

The car had just passed an intersection that divided the street in two.

The food factory is on the other side of the intersection; just walk straight ahead and you'll see it.

"Since there's a food factory, why didn't you go there last time? Doesn't the base know about it?" Li Xiao asked, puzzled.

"Yes, since there's food, why not prioritize collecting it? Why collect clothes instead?" Tian Tian was also puzzled.

It's understandable that they didn't know, but the people inside the base must have known. Why didn't they come here first? Isn't that strange?

No one could understand it.

Li Xiao would still occasionally open the map to check and observe the surrounding situation.

It's raining now, which is already inconvenient. Wearing a raincoat and rain boots is already inconvenient, so imagine what it would be like to run around in them.

Li Xiao didn't want to encounter that situation, so she was constantly on guard. She didn't like rain in the first place; rain affected her mood, always leaving her with a sense of oppression and unease.

Even before reaching the food factory, from some distance away, we could see several cars parked on the road, obstructing our view and making it impossible to see what was happening there.

They had no choice but to park their car some distance away and walk over.

When I passed by the car parked on the side of the road, there was no one inside. They must have gone into the factory.

While they were still observing, Li Xiao also opened the map again to check.

At this moment, inside the food factory, which is separated from them by two factory buildings, there is a striking orange-red energy symbol that immediately catches the eye.

"Stop!" Li Xiao shouted.

Everyone was startled by Li Xiao's loud shout.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Tian Tian was so startled by Li Xiao's loud voice that she jumped up and hurriedly asked.

"Stop, there's something ahead."
