Just two days ago, Ya Ya heard that Ye Jing's mother had passed away.
The adults didn't tell Ya Ya what it meant to leave, nor did they let Ya Ya and Fang Nianqiao attend the funeral.
Ye Jing's mother never came back after she left.
Four-year-old Yaya subconsciously believes that "leaving" is not a good thing.
When Ya Ya heard that her mother was leaving, she immediately hugged Qiao An'an's legs and acted spoiled, saying, "Don't let Mommy go!"
Qiao An'an told Ya Ya that this was the last time her mother would be separated from her, and that her mother would never be separated from her again: "Mom promises to come back, and when she comes back, she will bring Ya Ya's favorite SpongeBob SquarePants doll."
Ya Ya has recently become obsessed with the SpongeBob SquarePants cartoon.
When her mother said she was going to bring her a SpongeBob SquarePants plush toy, she immediately let go of her mother's leg: "Plus a Patrick Star plush toy!"
Qiao An'an: "Deal!"
Y City is only a few hours away from the capital, and they had traveled this road before, so they knew which routes were safe and which were not.
So they all set off lightly.
They only brought chocolate, which could quickly replenish their energy.
Before getting into the car, Chi Xiaoyu drew her bow and shot down a drone patrolling outside Y University: "Since we're declaring war, let's go all the way!"
Shen Zhou drove the car very fast, leaving all the scattered zombies he encountered on the road behind.
What would normally be a five- or six-hour journey, he sped along and completed in less than four hours.
The outermost entrance and exit of the capital's security zone has been renovated.
As soon as the group drove up to the security entrance, they were stopped by patrol personnel standing on the high city wall: "Who goes there?"
Shen Zhou rolled down the car window, allowing the people on the city wall to see their faces, before speaking: "I am Shen Zhou, and these are my friends Qiao An'an, Li Jianguo, Chi Xiaoyu, and Ye Jing. We received a call from Researcher Tang, asking us to come to the capital..."
The patrolman on the city wall was a young man not yet twenty.
They are still at an age where they greatly admire heroes.
After recognizing the driver's face, he immediately opened the door and let the car out. As he did so, he couldn't help but report to his superior via radio: "Sir, the heroes who destroyed the FX Lake Bottom Laboratory have arrived. They want to see Researcher Tang."
From the patrolman's words, everyone concluded that Tang Rui should be safe at present, but if she is safe, why doesn't she answer their calls?
Just then, the patrolman came down from the platform and stood in front of their car: "The leader said that Researcher Tang is not available to receive you right now, so he asked me to take you to the isolation room first."
Qiao An'an and her group had visited the capital once.
We know that anyone coming from the capital city needs to be quarantined in advance.
But they've been vaccinated: "We've all been vaccinated against the zombie virus."
Patrolman: "Most survivors in the capital and other safe zones have been vaccinated with the first-generation vaccine, but there are still many zombies outside that have been bitten by virus carriers. The first-generation vaccine is ineffective against this virus. For safety reasons, any survivors who come in must be quarantined."
While on their way, Qiao An'an and the others had already planned to sneak into the live stream room during their quarantine period in the capital.
I heard the patrol officers say that I needed to be quarantined.
Qiao An'an readily agreed: "Quarantine is a good thing, it's safe, let's quarantine!"
The patrolman led Qiao An'an and the others toward the quarantine area.
As Qiao An'an and the others walked behind, they whispered to each other, "This child should be fine, but his supervisor might not be. We need to be extra careful during the quarantine period."
Li Jianguo: "What are you afraid of? We are heroes in the hearts of the people across the country. The capital's safety zone can't just openly kill us, can it?"
Chen Zhou: "But they might resort to underhanded tactics."
Li Jianguo: "...Okay."
When arranging the quarantine, Qiao An'an wanted everyone to quarantine together, but the quarantined individuals ruthlessly refused: "Separate quarantine is the responsible thing to do for each of you."
Finally, each of them was locked in a small room.
Fortunately, their belongings were not confiscated during quarantine. After entering the room, Qiao An'an immediately sent a message in the group chat that had been set up beforehand: "Let's move after nightfall."
After receiving the message, everyone replied with "+1".
Qiao An'an chose to enter the night market because most of the staff in the quarantine area would go back to rest after nightfall, leaving only two people on night watch, which was the best time to escape and sneak into the live broadcast room.
But she overlooked one thing.
This is also the best opportunity for those in the capital who want them dead to eliminate them silently.
So when Qiao An'an and the others opened the door, they saw two staff members with their backs to them, their necks twisted in an odd posture, and they were making gurgling sounds.
These two people have obviously turned into zombies.
At that moment, the two zombies pounced on Qiao An'an and the others with lightning speed.
As Li Jianguo fought off the charging zombies, he muttered, "They're still second-generation zombies."
Before Li Jianguo's stick could even touch the zombie, he was hit by a bullet that seemed to come from nowhere.
The impact force of the bullet is extremely large.
The blow cracked Li Jianguo's hand, and the stick slipped from his grasp.
At the same time, more bullets were fired at the group.
Qiao An'an, Ye Jing, and Chi Xiaoyu slipped into the isolation room behind them, and Chen Zhou also pulled Li Jianguo in. The moment the door closed, bullets rained down, but fortunately the isolation doors were made of very thick iron sheets. Although the doors were full of bullet holes, no bullets got in.
Everyone is safe for the time being.
Li Jianguo questioned Qiao An'an: "Didn't you say they were afraid of our heroic status and wouldn't openly attack us? How did it turn into machine gun fire? You call this not daring to openly attack?"
Ye Jing disliked others questioning his sister An'an, so he retorted to Li Jianguo, "A brain is a good thing, but unfortunately some people don't have one!"
Li Jianguo didn't want to be offended by such a young child, so he said coldly, "You have no manners! Believe me or not, I'll beat you up!"
Qiao An'an knew that Li Jianguo was not a bad person.
He just has a bit of a short temper.
She stood between Li Jianguo and Ye Jing and explained, "The leadership in the capital city really doesn't dare to openly take action against us. The reason they brought in two zombies is actually to give them a reason to shoot us with machine guns."
If I'm not mistaken, if we die, tomorrow's headline will be: "Is it moral depravity or a last resort that a former hero entered the safe zone wounded?"
The content stated that a former hero infected two staff members during quarantine and posed a significant security risk to the safe zone, leaving us no choice but to resort to force.
After listening, Li Jianguo silently gave Qiao An'an a thumbs up: "What a talent! You must be the lead writer for the front page headline!"
