Han Junche remained silent.
Based on Lin Yi's understanding of him, his silence meant that the idea was feasible, but not good enough.
Lin Yi understood, and Wang Dalong and the others naturally understood as well. So Wang Dalong stepped forward: "I'll switch with Da Niu. Da Niu's ability is low, and you need a power user with a higher ability."
Zhuo Fang stepped forward: "I'll switch with Zhang Xin. Lin Yi isn't here, and we need someone with psychic abilities to find supplies."
Xu Fan also stepped forward: "The mutated zombies with superpowers in Z City have all been wiped out. What's left are just small fry. It's a piece of cake for the boss. On the contrary, we don't know what dangers we'll encounter along the way. I'll switch with Li Han. His superpowers are enough to accompany the boss and his wife to Z City."
Wang Erlong blinked, realizing he was too slow to speak and that no one could switch places with him: "Well... um, I... I'll go with you too?"
If we do as they say, it means Han Junche will leave with Chi Xia's team, leaving Lin Yi and the others behind.
Even Liu Daniu felt embarrassed: "Isn't this... not a good idea?"
Li Han glanced at Han Junche, who had remained silent, and then at Chi Xia. Suddenly, an idea struck him: "How about... we let Sister Chi and her husband go? Our abilities aren't very strong, and they would be a burden if they took us. Sister Chi also has a spatial ability, which is enough to carry supplies. Jerry can also take care of our food and drink along the way."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up instantly, and they all nodded in unison: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, this arrangement is the best!"
Jerry wasn't among those whose eyes lit up; he pouted unhappily, "I want to be with Xiaxia."
Han Junche, who had been silent with his arms crossed, suddenly lowered his arms, looked at Jerry, and asked, "How old are you this year?"
Jerry was puzzled by his question, but he still answered honestly, "I'm 19 this year."
"What the heck?" Liu Daniu exclaimed in surprise, "You're so tall and big, and you're only 19? What did you eat?"
Apart from Han Junche's team and Chi Xia, everyone else knew Jerry's real age, so they didn't react much to the answer.
Li Han and Zhang Xin were taken aback by this answer. Li Han turned his head and whispered to Zhang Xin, "No wonder Sister Chi was so sure that Jerry just saw her as an idol."
Zhang Xin suddenly realized this, but her thoughts were different from Li Han's. She smiled and said, "A cute puppy is fine too."
Upon hearing this, Li Han turned his head to look at Jerry, and his expression changed slightly.
"You're 19 now," Han Junche said calmly. "If you hadn't said so, I would have thought you were still 17."
Although Jerry was an expert on China, he still couldn't understand the hidden meaning in Han Junche's words, and frowned: "I don't understand."
"Poor kid." Lin Yi looked at him and said, "Let me put it this way, do you want to be a little brother forever, or do you want to become a man who can stand on his own and take responsibility?"
Jerry replied without hesitation, "Of course he's a responsible man!"
Lin Yi nodded: "Then do you know what the first step should be to become a responsible man?"
Before Jerry could speak, Wang Dalong and Wang Erlong, who had already reacted, chimed in, "It's independence!"
"That's right! Independence!"
Lin Yi spoke passionately, as if he were brainwashing some organization leader: "Think about it, from individuals to nations, if you want to achieve something, doesn't it all start with independence? You're always following your sister-in-law around, how can you grow? How can you become independent? How can you become a responsible man?"
