Chapter 387: Everyone’s Scheme
After all, they weren’t the first to leave, and they didn’t mind that, they were just clear in their minds that some people who had gone carried hope, others might be waiting, while some would be eliminated.
During the foggy period now, many people were off work, so information wasn’t widely available; the base hadn’t yet spread any news about the relocation.
The Entertainment City outside the base hadn’t received any precise news either, for only a few people in senior positions and their families, as well as Gu Pan and her group, had been informed.
Ordinary people wouldn’t talk about this either, because once too many people knew, those able to leave faced the risk of falling into traps and failing to leave, so, even within one’s own family, it might not be truly spoken of.
However, Gu Pan’s group was different; even without tickets to Mount Everest, they had means to leave—they had many modes of transport, and at worst, they could join Gu Ci’s group in building their own base outside Mount Everest Base, still capable of surviving.
Two months later, the fog finally cleared, and that moment of sudden clarity made everyone feel an expansive relief in their hearts.
Gu Pan noticed that after every disaster ended, there would be very good weather, albeit brief, that gave people a sense of hope.
It was as if nature was deliberately offering people a bit of hope and sweetness, a glimpse of life in the most desperate of times.
During this time, the happiest were those tending to the strawberries and sweet melons that were soon to ripen; Meng Meng checked on them eight times a day, remembering clearly each fruit hanging from the vines.
With the weather restored, they were eager to go see the situation at Entertainment City.
