At noon, the three of them had milk powder and oatmeal porridge. The fresh milk in the small shop was basically expired, but the milk powder was still drinkable.
Chen Wan tapped his fingertips lightly on the table in front of him and looked at Jiang Yanxin who was still drinking oatmeal porridge across from him. "Yanxin, I thought we should go collect some supplies this afternoon so we can drive away from here."
Jiang Yanxin paused while drinking her porridge and looked at Chen Wan. "So where are we going next? Have you decided?"
Chen Wan nodded and replied, "Let's go to Bunan City. Your parents and sister are all in Bunan. I thought I'd go over there to look for Anxin, just in case they're okay."
Jiang Yanxin's pupils shrank. She obviously didn't expect Chen Wan to say that. How could Chen Wan, who had changed his mind, know about his family's affairs? And was so kind as to help him find his parents and sister?
She had indeed been worried about the safety of her family before, but at that time she couldn't even protect herself and her daughter. She could only think about it in her mind, but actually she could do nothing. Now Chen Wan, who had changed his heart, suddenly said this, which made Jiang Yanxin a little unsure of Chen Wan's meaning. But no matter where they went, the decision was not in her hands. The person in front of her had the final say.
Moreover, she herself wanted to go to Bu Nan City more than to other places. Jiang Yanxin could only follow Chen Wan's words and replied: "Okay, but Bu Nan is a bit far from here, and I don't know if the journey will be smooth."
Seeing her worry, Chen Wan comforted her softly, "Don't worry, this RV has a high safety factor. It should be enough for us to get to Funan City."
Jiang Yanxin nodded, trying hard to keep her face straight and not reveal any extra expression. She wanted to see what Chen Wan was going to do.
After lunch, Chen Wan raised all the steel plates protecting the glass around the RV. Suddenly, a large amount of sunlight came into the RV, which was even a little dazzling for a moment.
She turned off all the lights in the RV and got in the driver's seat, preparing to drive slowly along the street while letting the system search for any supplies. The car had only driven 500 meters when the system's mechanical voice rang out in Chen Wan's mind: "A large amount of clothing has been detected in the store on the left."
Chen Wan nodded and parked the car. Seeing that she was about to get out, Jiang Yanxin coaxed Zizi for a while, and then followed Chen Wan out of the car.
The two of them had shopped before, so they had a tacit understanding. They just stuffed as many useful things as possible into the bag, as long as the trunk could hold them.
This shop sells casual wear, so it matches the clothes.
There were still quite a few shoes in the bag, which were consumables in the apocalypse. Chen Wan put them into his bag when he saw them, and soon the two big bags were full.
Jiang Yanxin was also like this. She counted the pants in the store and found dozens of them hanging outside. Although they might not all fit, they were enough for her and Chen Wan. When she thought of this, Jiang Yanxin's heart skipped a beat. Why did she think of Chen Wan? She didn't know what the future would be like, so why did she include Chen Wan in this?
Jiang Yanxin put aside these distracting thoughts and quickened her hands' movements. Soon, the clothes and shoes in the store were cleared out by her and Chen Wan. They even emptied the small warehouse in the store.
Chen Wan didn't rush to get in the car. She saw a pharmacy not far ahead and a bookstore next to it. She said to Jiang Yanxin beside her, "Let's go to the pharmacy and see if there are any medicines that haven't been looted yet. We can take some."
Jiang Yanxin nodded, "Okay."
When the two of them walked to the door of the store, four or five small red dots appeared in Chen Wan's mind, which startled Chen Wan. He reached out and held Jiang Yanxin's wrist and took a few steps back.
Jiang Yanxin did not struggle to break away from Chen Wan. Seeing Chen Wan's serious expression, she began to feel a little worried.
At this moment, the door of the pharmacy was opened by several young men, led by two tall male alphas, and behind them stood two female Omegas and one male Omega. One of the female Omegas seemed to have an injured arm wrapped in gauze. Several of them had weapons in their hands, and were staring at Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin with a murderous look.
However, the two alphas looked at Jiang Yanxin with somewhat jealous eyes, and Jiang Yanxin's brows twisted subconsciously. Chen Wan naturally saw it, and he let go of Jiang Yanxin's wrist and took a step forward to stand in front of Jiang Yanxin.
Jiang Yanxin did not expect Chen Wan's behavior. She looked at the person standing in front of her with a complicated look.
The two male alphas saw that their view was blocked, and the leader finally spoke: "Who are you? This is our base, what do you want to do?"
"This is just an abandoned pharmacy. We can go in and get some daily medicines and leave. We have no bad intentions." Chen Wan said, looking directly at the male alpha.
"I said this is our base. Who knows whether you are good or bad? The supplies here are all ours. If you want medicine, you can exchange it with us." The alpha male with a crew cut continued.
Chen Wan thinks he is sick. There are many abandoned pharmacies and hospitals in the end times.
Chen Wan glanced at the buzz cut man and said to Jiang Yanxin behind him, "Since there are people here, let's go somewhere else."
Seeing that there were five people on the other side, including two male alphas, Jiang Yanxin didn't want Chen Wan to conflict with them, so she immediately responded, "Okay, let's go to the next two streets and have a look. There should be a pharmacy or a medical clinic there."
Chen Wan nodded at Jiang Yanxin, reached out and took Jiang Yanxin's wrist and prepared to walk towards the bookstore. Books are of little use in the apocalypse, but the baby likes to listen to stories. Chen Wan wanted to get more storybooks for the baby. Children at this stage are curious about everything, so it is good for them to read more storybooks.
The man with the buzz cut felt a little embarrassed when he saw that he was being ignored. He pointed the hand holding the kitchen knife at Chen Wan and said, "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me?"
Chen Wan turned around and stood still, still speaking in a normal tone: "I heard it, isn't it your base that doesn't allow us to enter? Haven't we left yet? What else do you want?"
The buzz cut man got angrier the calmer Chen Wan became, and his tone suddenly rose. "Why are you pretending? There are only two of you, and one of you is an Omega. How can you not be scared? I'm telling you, these streets are our territory. You are not allowed to look for supplies here. Also, if you touched anything on this street just now, spit it all out."
Chen Wan let go of Jiang Yanxin's wrist and handed her his backpack, "Help me hold it."
Jiang Yanxin grabbed Chen Wan's wrist and said, "Let's go. There are many of them, so let's not get into a fight."
Chen Wan handed the backpack to Jiang Yanxin and said softly, "Don't worry, I know my limits. We've already made concessions. He was the one who was being aggressive."
After hearing what Chen Wan said, the guy with the crew cut became even more furious. He was the captain of these people. Before the apocalypse, they were all students of Weibei University. When the apocalypse broke out, they were shopping outside, and they spontaneously formed a team.
Among them, the one with a buzz cut is a sports student with a tall stature, so they usually listen to him. However, as the time in the apocalypse gets longer, his temper becomes more and more violent. Not only does he ask his girlfriend to obey him in everything, but he also often has physical contact with two other Omegas, one male and one female. The wound on his girlfriend's arm was caused by him shaking her arm away when they were arguing with him.
The bald man, who was already arrogant, could not stand Chen Wan's disregard. In his opinion, Chen Wan was provoking him, and he did not want Chen Wan and the other man to leave.
The purpose was that he thought Jiang Yanxin was beautiful and had other thoughts in his mind.
In the end times, morality has declined, and the ugliest side of people's hearts will be stimulated to the greatest extent. The man with the crew cut is no exception. The reason why his current girlfriend is with him is largely because she was forced by him.
"Stop talking nonsense. Either leave everything you took behind, or surrender quickly and join our team." The man with the crew cut was already walking towards Chen Wan with a kitchen knife in his hand.
Chen Wan was not ambiguous either. He walked towards the man with his bare hands. Seeing that Chen Wan didn't even have a weapon, the man with the bare hands sneered and pointed a kitchen knife at Chen Wan: "You want to provoke me when you have nothing in your hands?"
Chen Wan didn't waste any words with him. When he pointed the knife at himself, Chen Wan suddenly exerted force with both hands and tightly grabbed the hand of the man with the crew cut holding the knife. With a backhand, Chen Wan snatched the kitchen knife from the man's hand and threw it to the open space beside him. At the same time, the man with the crew cut also reacted and swung his other fist straight at Chen Wan's face.
Chen Wan was prepared. After dodging for a moment, he swung his right fist and hit the man with the crew cut hard in the face. The man with the crew cut took several steps back and fell to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and all four or five of his teeth were knocked out by Chen Wan.
The guy with the buzz cut didn't expect to run into such a tough opponent. He opened his mouth and yelled to his teammates, "What are you all standing there for? Come on together!"
Seeing that Chen Wan's skills seemed to be well-trained, the other alpha didn't dare to go up, not to mention the several Omegas. For a moment, no one listened to what the man with the crew cut said.
The man with the buzz cut covered his mouth and stood up, staring at his companions: "You guys just wait."
As he said this, he wanted to reach out for the kitchen knife that Chen Wan had just taken away. This time he really had the intention to kill. His flushed face was full of anger, and he wanted to fight Chen Wan to the death.
Of course, Chen Wan knew what the crew cut guy was up to. Before he could even pick up the kitchen knife, he kicked him again. This time, Chen Wan used about 70% of his strength, sending the crew cut guy flying backwards. He only just stopped when his back hit a roadside trash can. At this point, he didn't know where he'd been struck, but cold sweat dripped down his face, and his previous arrogance was gone.
