Shen Jing's timely appearance is a testament to this.
All the problems were solved in an instant.
Gu Yan sat in the passenger seat of the SUV and did not participate in their actions.
Although Zhang Run didn't know Gu Yan, he still unceremoniously arranged for him to guard the supplies.
Shen Jing watched the spectacle from the sidelines, saying, "Zhang Run, that's enough."
"Okay, that's all for now. Thanks, bro."
Ignoring the fact that Gu Yan hadn't agreed, he thanked him and turned to get his car repaired.
While searching for supplies, Shen Jing secretly used her psychic abilities to detect zombies, minimizing their time spent wandering in the wilderness. And indeed, there were quite a few zombies roaming the area; Shen Jing only dealt with the more dangerous ones.
The others weren't afraid of the zombies either; they probably had developed courage after two months of living outdoors in the open.
Including those two geologists, they are all capable of ruthlessly killing zombies!
Sometimes, I get so caught up in the details that I forget what I'm doing and end up in a chaotic mess.
At this point, Shen Jing would step in to resolve the issue.
When they finally saw the lair of those people overflowing with supplies, everyone was filled with astonishment and anger. Just how many passersby had these people robbed!
When moving supplies, they didn't shirk their responsibilities; each person was practically split into several people to carry the load.
Shen Jing couldn't help but show an admiring look in her eyes.
He's reliable and capable, and he didn't hold us back. It's good that he was able to save these people!
Another point is that He Qing has a better eye for people than Huang You.
Although Zhang Run seems a bit thick-skinned, he always acts in the best interests of the base. He has a good sense of propriety and doesn't come across as annoying, which is a plus. Shen Jing just finds him a bit irritating at times.
After moving all the supplies, everyone returned to the convoy exhausted.
And just as Zhang Run had predicted, after loading the thieves' small truck and their own car, the supplies were not completely loaded. In the end, they just needed to put them in boxes and tie them on the roof of the vehicle.
Fortunately, Shen Jing had already stored all the supplies in the car into her spatial storage before leaving home.
She was the only one in the car who was going to take the items back to the base, which meant that it wouldn't matter if Zhang Run and the others saw her.
There's no need to worry about the secret being leaked if they get on the bus.
Gu Yan rested his forehead on one hand and looked out the window. "So you help just anyone?"
"I just happened to be passing by and stopped by."
"Just casually..." Gu Yan lowered his eyes and silently repeated the word.
Shen Jing thought he was talking about helping Zhang Run and the others.
After she finished speaking, she rolled down the car window and said to the two scholars who were walking towards her, "The back seats will be a bit cramped."
"It's okay, it's okay!"
"We should be burning incense and chanting Buddhist prayers now that we've safely returned to base!"
"No, wait a minute, we should thank Xiao Shen properly when we get back to base."
"Haha, yes! We should thank them properly."
If it weren't for Shen Jing's timely arrival, they would probably have become victims of the robbers long ago.
Death is nothing new in the apocalypse.
But they still have important tasks to complete...
The volcano's unusual activity is still unclear, but this is a matter of life and death for the base!
Shen Jing was unaware that the important matter on their minds was the earth-elemental crystal core that Gu Yan had mentioned before.
If I knew, I would probably reply to them: the crystal core shouldn't explode anytime soon.
But who knows what the future holds?
After Gu Yan solved the crystal core problem last time, he almost lost half his life!
Although he has amnesia now, judging from his condition these past two days, he is probably still carrying out the previous procedures.
Shen Jing glanced at Gu Yan, who was pretending to be asleep.
She thought to herself that what the mutated vine said about still supplying energy to the Earth's core must be true...
The convoy quickly returned to the base entrance.
Internal personnel have a fast track to enter the base.
However, once inside the base, they still need to be quarantined in a separate isolation room.
During this period, Zhang Run kept his promise and gave Shen Jing 800 points.
He didn't haggle or offer any discounts.
"Thank you for saving us! My life is nothing..." Zhang Run smiled seriously for once, "They are some of the few remaining experts and scholars in the geological field. It would be such a pity if they could not return safely."
Zhang Run didn't bring these things up at the time, but chose to do so now.
That's because he knew in his heart that if he really tried to use moral blackmail against Shen Jing, it would only push her further away.
Fortunately, his intuition came true again this time!
Every single one of the people they took out returned!
Shen Jing shrugged, held up her points voucher, and said, "Pleasure doing business with you."
"Haha, it's a pleasure working with you, Shen Jing."
After their quarantine ended, Shen Jing and Gu Yan drove home.
Because of the electrical appliances in the car, she chose to park it downstairs.
Normally, people would pay a small rental fee to park their cars in the parking lot, for fear of having their gas drained or being stolen. However, after what happened at the points redemption center, some people probably figured out who the car belonged to.
If he wasn't tired of living, he probably wouldn't have set his sights on Shen Jing.
As soon as the car came to a stop downstairs, Gu Yan got out and walked briskly into the stairwell.
After Shen Jing took the key, she saw that he had already walked away. He really seemed to have no desire to have any contact with her...
Well, Shen Jing thought about how badly he had been injured earlier and felt relieved.
"Ah Jing, you're finally back."
It was He Qing! Had he been waiting here all this time?
As Gu Yan passed by him, he glanced at him indifferently before continuing upstairs.
