Chi Xia understood immediately. She looked at Han Junche and said, "You mean they're looking for a way out for themselves?"
"Hmm." Han Junche nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, once our base is established and gains some reputation, these two will definitely come to join us within a year."
Chi Xia leaned back in her chair and said indifferently, "Let them come. These two have high-level abilities and are flexible. Even if their behavior is not good, as long as the rules are set, they may still be a useful asset."
Han Junche nodded and said, "Xiaxia and I are truly on the same wavelength."
Chi Xia looked up at him and asked very seriously, "A-Che, don't you feel like your persona has collapsed?"
"Really?" Han Junche raised an eyebrow: "All my personas are built on your foundation, so whether they collapse or not is up to you."
Okay, he has a point.
Chi Xia stopped dwelling on it and, recalling the strange atmosphere among the men when she left, asked curiously, "Did something happen last night? I felt there was something odd about the atmosphere between you guys?"
Upon hearing this, Han Junche stiffened, then said with a hint of apology, "I can't say. Xiaxia can observe for herself."
Chi Xia was just asking out of curiosity. After all, the fact that Liu Daniu hadn't returned home all night without them noticing meant that something serious must have happened.
But he was unwilling to say, and she did not force him, but secretly remembered his words and began to pay attention to them.
Wang Run and Yang Dabing stood at the entrance of the base, watching Chi Xia and the others' car until it disappeared from sight before turning around and walking into the base.
After taking a couple of steps, Yang Dabing suddenly stopped and looked at Wang Run, asking, "Brother, did you tell Captain Han and the others about the bridge collapse last night?"
Wang Run was stunned by these words: "Didn't you say that? I was drunk last night and didn't think about it at all. I saw that you were sober the whole time, so I thought you were going to have a good talk with them."
Yang Dabing frowned: "I'm staying sober because we can't both get drunk; someone has to clean up the mess. I saw you chatting so enthusiastically with them, so I assumed you had already told them."
Wang Run and Yang Dabing looked at each other, and after a long while, Wang Run said, "Then... it should be alright, right? The big bridge collapsed, but there's still the small bridge. Although it's a bit dangerous, and there are mutated creatures in the river, their ability level is so high, they should be fine, right?"
Yang Dabing smacked his lips: "Probably not. There are ferries on the riverbank. With their skills, robbing those ferries wouldn't be a problem."
"Then it's alright." Wang Run breathed a sigh of relief: "It's the same whether you say it or not."
When Chi Xia and her group left Runyang Base, it was already past nine in the morning. The group headed north. Once they crossed the river, they would reach F City. Beyond F City lay the Qinling Mountains. Once they crossed the Qinling Mountains, they would officially have arrived in the north.
Around 1 p.m., everyone stopped to have lunch.
Chi Xia paid special attention and noticed that Xu Fan, Zhuo Fang, and Qin Zhao were originally in one car, but now Xu Fan, Lin Yi, and Qin Zhao were in another car, while Zhuo Fang went to Wang Dalong and Wang Erlong's car.
Chi Xia didn't pay much attention at first, since they were all in the same team and the initial car rides were just a random combination.
However, when it came to meals, Xu Fan and Zhuo Fang, who usually sat next to each other, were now separated by several people, and it was intentional. This situation could not be described as ordinary.
