Chapter 927 - 403 Fire Street
Xiao Cai and Xiao Rou discussed outside the door for a while and came back agreeing to relocate near the railroad bridge base. They stated that their base would be closer to the mountains rather than the railroad bridge base. Blue Star, who enjoyed a slow-paced life, was already fascinated to learn that the railroad bridge base housed so many people, likening it to a real-life version of Stardew Valley.
After having lunch, Xiao Hua, Xiao Cao, Xiao Rou, and Xiao Cai began packing their belongings. During this time, Lin Ma did not offer any suggestions nor urged them; take whatever you want, and carry as much as you can.
As a result, not only did all four of them prepare a large backpack each, but they also each brought a suitcase. No wait, all four suitcases belonged to Xiao Hua. Xiao Cai’s belongings were simple, very streamlined, consisting of a small amount of food, the rest being tools and weapons.
The four suitcases undoubtedly slowed down the team’s progress, but Maya made sure to consider the timing when setting up rest points.
Xiao Rou was assigned to protect Xiao Hua at the back, while Lin Wu still took the lead, followed by Maya providing support. When they encountered zombies on the road, Xiao Rou provided long-range support. Both of their archery was supremely accurate, nailing headshots within 20 meters.
In response to Lin Wu’s praise, Xiao Cai was modest. She felt zombies were no different from stationary targets; if she couldn’t score an 8 within 20 meters, she’d be embarrassed to call herself a Hunter.
Xiao Rou spoke less, mostly it was Xiao Cai speaking while Xiao Rou acted. But Xiao Rou was very attentive to details. After explaining where they would camp for the night, Xiao Rou began collecting combustible materials. After everyone moved up to the air station, Xiao Rou also set up cameras nearby.
The air station was deserted, not much equipment inside, and the space was quite large. While everyone was preparing dinner, Lin Wu slipped out to a few pharmacies 200 meters away and gathered a batch of medicines. Although there were many survivors, there were too many pharmacies, so the three pharmacies Lin Wu visited were not looted. Lin Wu eventually found a suitcase and filled it with medicines.
The suitcase was placed under a car at the base of the iron tower. Lin Wu climbed up the tower, and when Maya, waiting outside, saw Lin Wu, she exclaimed, "They have some issues."
The issues were many, but condensed into one sentence: When will this damned day end?
Lin Wu sat down, took his dinner, and began to explain about Blue Star, immigration, Dawn—all of which could be tied together, mostly truth. However, the conclusion about the zombie virus was not something every Earthling could accept. Hence, Lin Wu had another explanation.
