#784 - Chapter 784 What to do?
Noon.
Another location in Yonghua City.
About two or three kilometers from Zhao Lei's residence, Xiao Fei and his companions were strolling outdoors in good spirits.
They came out to collect more wood or combustible materials to store.
The weather had been getting colder recently, and without heating devices like in peacetime, the survivors could only rely on burning things to keep warm.
The amount burned every night was not small.
This was also why Qin Jin was worried that some valuable data and the crystallization of human civilization would gradually disappear.
The survivors consumed a lot for heating every year.
The survivors, who were not well-fed or warmly clothed, did not care what they burned; as long as it could burn and emit heat, it was firewood.
Moreover, after the snowstorm sealed the city, they couldn't even go out often, so they needed to hoard firewood before it snowed and the weather became too severe.
Otherwise, it would be picked up by other survivors.
"Brother, we've collected another cart. Should we take it back?"
Xiao Yun's face had lost its usual heaviness and anxiety, replaced by more smiles.
The treasure hunt yesterday was quite fruitful.
The three of them naturally obtained the most supplies, and as long as they saved a little, they could spend this winter comfortably.
Moreover, there were still many treasures left in the shopping mall, and they agreed to try again in a couple of days to retrieve the remaining supplies they had abandoned when chased by zombies before.
Several boxes!
They would cry to death if other survivors picked them up.
However, the sudden sound of a helicopter yesterday made them temporarily afraid to take risks again, planning to wait a day or two to confirm that yesterday was just a coincidence.
Today, after eating breakfast, they went out to find firewood and other useful supplies.
No one would complain about having too much stock; hoarding not only provided a sense of security but also ensured the future.
"Let's go. We've got enough for a month or two today. Once we find a few more carts to make up the stock needed for this winter, we'll stop," Xiao Fei replied to his younger sister in a very good mood.
As the saying goes, a man with food in hand doesn't panic, and a man with food is different.
Even his speech was much more confident.
Yesterday's adventure greatly enriched the capital for several people to survive.
But it was also thrilling enough.
If the companion they found wasn't strong enough, Qin Ge might not have come back.
Fortunately, they found more helpers yesterday, otherwise, the three of them might have been in a desperate situation.
The three of them alone could not block the zombie's impact while finding a way to escape.
Especially that Miss Yao, she is definitely an extraordinary person.
"Let's go, Qin Ge! What are you still dazing about!? This is the way home!"
Xiao Fei and his sister, who had already turned around and walked towards their residence, noticed that Qin Ge was still walking forward dumbly, so they couldn't help but shout.
In their small team, there was a hearing-evolved person like Xiao Yun, who had control over the sounds within a hundred meters, and ordinary zombies would not even approach this area without them knowing.
Besides, those ghosts didn't like to come out during the day.
"Uh... okay..."
Qin Ge was stunned for a moment after hearing the shout and then reacted, quickly following.
He was indeed distracted just now, recalling the scenes that happened yesterday in his mind.
He almost died. If it wasn't for the appearance of that magical woman, he might have ended up in the shopping mall?
That woman...
Quite attractive...
Qin Ge relived it all night, his mind filled with a very sassy figure.
He heard that Miss Yao's family also had injured people, so she had been going around looking for medicine recently.
Now that she found it yesterday, her relatives and friends should be saved, right?
Who is she trying to save?
Is it a man or a woman?
Does she have a boyfriend?
Countless questions filled his mind.
But no one was destined to give him answers.
The three continued to walk home pushing two handcarts and a bicycle.
After solving the firewood problem in the morning, they planned to go to the outside of the shopping mall again in the afternoon to find out the situation, relying on Xiao Yun's ability to see if the zombies inside had returned to normal.
Suddenly!
"Hide quickly!!! There's a car coming towards us!"
Xiao Yun's face changed drastically, and she immediately issued a warning!
A car is coming!
People who still have cars and fuel in this apocalyptic period are likely from bases or shelters!
Generally speaking, they are not people that scattered survivors like them can provoke!
Xiao Fei and his companions quickly sped up and hid in a dilapidated gatehouse on the side of the road, only revealing their eyes to observe the situation outside.
Soon.
They had just hidden themselves when a small truck appeared from a street corner at one end and continued to drive in their direction.
!!!
The pupils of the three shrank, and they saw two people tied up in the back of the truck!
One of the men was very familiar, wasn't it Sun Haohai, who had explored the shopping mall together yesterday!?
Why would he be there!?
And his face was full of injuries, looking like he had been beaten!
"Don't go out!! Something happened to Sun Haohai!!"
Qin Ge's face was serious, staring fixedly at the vehicle gradually passing by in front of him, very sure that it was the companion who was still adventuring with him yesterday!
There was another little girl in the car.
If he guessed correctly, it should be Sun Haohai's child, right!?
How were the two of them caught?
The people in the car did not notice the few people hiding in the roadside building and continued to drive to the collection point designated by the leader.
They found many survivors in this area in the morning, and as a result, they really found a little bit of possible clues!
According to some of them, a woman who was looking for medicine everywhere did appear here a few days ago, and her appearance was different from ordinary survivors.
It is very likely that she is the person their leader is looking for!
However, these survivors did not know where the woman lived, only saying that it was probably in this area.
It just so happened that a survivor pointed out that another man named Sun Haohai had gone out with this woman yesterday.
That's easy, just grab Sun Haohai and force him to tell the information.
As a result, when they went to Sun Haohai's residence and broke in, a gratifying scene appeared!
This man actually found a lot of food from somewhere!
And he was eating delicious noodles with his daughter!
The people from the Tiansheng Base were not polite with him, and a group of people immediately rushed up to subdue the two.
Shamelessly taking all the supplies for themselves.
A great harvest!
Not only did they catch someone who might know the information of the woman the leader was looking for, but they also harvested a lot of food!
Unfortunately, this man refused to reveal the woman's information, and even after being beaten up, he still gritted his teeth and held on.
Hehe.
Did he think this would be useful?
He has a daughter.
Bring her back to the Tiansheng leader later, and any of his secrets will be squeezed out!
Maybe even his daughter will become the leader's collection!
A great victory!
Hurry back and report to the leader!
Qin Ge and Xiao Fei stared fixedly at the car driving away, not knowing what to do for a while.
