In fact, if those people in the capital's safe zone could take this issue seriously, these children would not pose a threat at all. The problem is that not only do they not control them, but they also want to use the children as a gimmick to win public support.
Qin Chengguo and Fang Yuyang probably realized this, which is why they chose to leave the capital's safe zone to find them.
Qiao An'an was not surprised by their choice.
We're all adults; everyone understands the principle that a wise person avoids dangerous situations.
But she was puzzled as to how Qin Chengguo and Fang Yuyang found them: "There are countless roads back to prison, how did you know we were on this one?"
Qin Chengguo pointed to the driveway: "Your RV is from the capital city, and there's a GPS tracker inside."
After hearing this, Chi Xiaoyu immediately went back into the RV to search.
She quickly found the locator on the seat behind the driver's seat and handed it to Qiao An'an: "It really is there!"
Qiao An'an threw the locator that Chi Xiaoyu had given her into the ditch outside the road.
Qin Chengguo replied, "They not only confirmed your location through the locator, but also sent drones to the prison where we were previously staying, preparing to monitor your every move in the future."
Qiao An'an and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
I really can't understand why they're doing this in the capital: "Why are they spying on us?"
Qin Chengguo replied, "We can't participate in the high-level meetings. We only overheard them mentioning surveillance by chance. Apparently, after the leadership of the capital city saw the underwater rescue, they were worried that your strength might threaten the safety of the capital, since you guys were able to kill over a hundred zombies with your bare hands..."
Grandpa Gu was furious after hearing this: "Like a rabbit being cooked after the hunt, or a bow being put away after the birds are all gone... They're trying to cross the river and then discard the bridge!!!"
Li Jianguo was also furious after hearing this, but he ignored his grandfather's flowery language and simply cursed, "Damn it, those bastards in the capital are inhuman!!!"
Yan Ling rolled her eyes at Li Jianguo, realizing that all she could say was "Holy crap" since she was uncultured.
Shen Zhou's first reaction after hearing this was: "We can't go back to prison."
Indeed... they don't want to live under someone else's surveillance.
But if they don't go back to prison, where can they go?
The residential area and the courtyard are connected to the highway. Even if they kill all the zombies in the residential area, there will still be a continuous stream of zombies coming from other places.
Moreover, the area has already been destroyed by the masked man, and repairing the damaged area would be a considerable undertaking.
After thinking for a while, Qiao An'an asked, "How about we go into the mountains?"
The neighborhood and courtyard are backed by mountains, which effectively block out noise and prevent large-scale zombie invasions. Even if one or two zombies accidentally wander into the mountains, they pose no threat to us.
If all goes well, the forest ranger's house in the mountains is currently occupied by Wu Yong and his wife with their child. When we go, we don't need to stay in the ranger's house. There's plenty of wood in the mountains; we can use it to build a house. It's summer now, so it's not cold. We can sleep outdoors until the wooden house is built, and the children can stay in the car for now.”
No one had much objection to Qiao An'an's suggestion.
Especially Grandpa Gu.
He's getting old, and returning to his roots is the best ending for him.
However, the mosquitoes in the woods in summer are so vicious they can kill a person. He suggested, "Stop the car when we come across a large supermarket on the road and see if we can find mosquito coils or something like that."
More than a year has passed since the apocalypse.
The supermarket was basically deserted, because all the edible items inside had already been looted by countless people. However, since inedible items like mosquito coils were unlikely to be sought out, there was still a chance of finding them.
However, several supermarkets were surrounded by large numbers of zombies.
They drove for a long time before finally finding a large supermarket that wasn't very crowded.
After parking the car at the supermarket entrance, Shen Zhou led Li Jianguo into the supermarket to search for supplies: "The things in our three cars are more important. We don't know if we've been watched along the way. I'm worried about all three cars of supplies going into the supermarket. Besides, getting mosquito coils isn't difficult. Li Jianguo and I are enough."
Qiao An'an thought Shen Zhou's analysis made a lot of sense, but she just told them to be careful and didn't say anything more.
After Shen Zhou and Li Jianguo entered the supermarket.
Fang Yuyang and Qin Chengguo guarded the commercial vehicle, Yan Ling guarded the truck, and Grandpa Gu and the others guarded the RV.
Qiao An'an then led Ye Jing and Chi Xiaoyu out of the car and to the parking lot in front of the supermarket, hoping to find a truck that could be started to replace the current abandoned truck. However, after searching around the parking lot, they only saw cars, and the only supermarket truck they found had a wrecked cab.
The three returned empty-handed.
Yan Ling asked Qiao An'an, who had just returned, with some concern, "They went in a while ago and haven't come back yet. Is that alright?"
Judging by the time, Shen Zhou and Li Jianguo had been inside for half an hour.
It should have come out under normal circumstances.
Qiao An'an couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Grandpa Gu comforted everyone, saying, "You must trust Shen Zhou and Li Jianguo. When the two of them work together, no ordinary person can get close to them. Besides, Shen Zhou told us to stay outside and guard the supplies on the truck. If we leave to find Shen Zhou and the others, it would be bad if someone tried to take the supplies from the truck at this time."
After hearing what Grandpa Gu said, everyone decided to wait a little longer.
To everyone's surprise, several gunshots suddenly rang out inside the supermarket at that moment.
Although there aren't many zombies around here, that doesn't mean there aren't any further away. Zombies are extremely sensitive to sound, so Chen Zhou and Li Jianguo probably won't fire unless absolutely necessary.
Unless the situation is critical.
The more they thought about it, the more worried they became about the people inside.
At that moment, the gunshots had already attracted the attention of the nearby zombies.
Through binoculars, you can see that the zombies on the nearby road are all surging towards the supermarket.
Grandpa Gu felt extremely guilty: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have asked for mosquito coils. It's not like I'd die from a few mosquito bites..."
The best option at this point is to drive away with the supplies.
However, no one can turn a blind eye to a friend who has risked their life for them.
Fang Yuyang suggested, "Why don't we go in and take a look?"
The RV that Qiao An'an and the others are currently riding in is very sturdy; even if a large number of zombies surround it, the RV will not have any problems.
However, this may not apply to commercial vehicles and trucks.
Even if it meant going in to rescue Chen Zhou and Li Jianguo, Qiao An'an felt that the safety of everyone in the vehicle should be ensured first. So she said to everyone, "Dr. Qin, take the supplies from the van and Nian Qiao into the RV. Yan Ling, Fang Yuyang, and I will go into the supermarket. If we don't come out in ten minutes, you can drive the RV away."
Seeing this, Chi Xiaoyu and Ye Jing also wanted to follow.
Qiao An'an stopped Chi Xiaoyu and Ye Jing: "You are the ones I trust the most. Only with you staying here to take care of Ya Ya did I dare to go in and save her."
