Looking at Ji Zan’s tired expression, Fu Shinan felt guilty and said softly, “I’m sorry. If it wasn’t for me suggesting to go to the farm, maybe our base wouldn’t be like this today. This fire is too suspicious!”
Ji Zan’s mouth twitched, and his deep voice carried a reassuring charm. “It has nothing to do with you! Let’s find a temporary place to stay first, and then we can figure out the rest.”
Fu Shinan asked in a low voice, “Are there any suitable places to go at the moment?”
Ji Zan pondered for a moment. “Let’s go back to the previous supermarket for now. Survive through the night, and we can think about tomorrow. The town is so big, there must be some options available.”
Half an hour later, they arrived at the previous supermarket they had stayed in. As they opened the door, a musty smell filled the air. It was inevitable since the place hadn’t been flooded and is considered very fortunate.
Ji Zan spoke solemnly, “The food supplies at the farm have been moved. It’s highly likely that Cao Yong didn’t die! ” He was surprised by this revelation as well. He hadn’t expected Cao Yong to be so difficult to kill, considering his precognitive abilities. If Ji Zan and the others hadn’t left today, perhaps the base wouldn’t have burned…
Fu Shinan lowered her gaze, realizing that she had underestimated Cao Yong. With his precognition ability, how could he have left food behind? If Ji Zan and the others hadn’t gone out today, maybe the base wouldn’t have caught fire…
Ji Zan glanced at her and continued, “Tomorrow, we’ll split into two groups.
One group will search for a place to stay, and the other will search for food! Don’t give up, we haven’t reached a dead end yet! Fu Shinan, MO Cheng, let’s go together to find food. Man Yu and Professor Feng will stay at the supermarket with Chang’an. Da Fei, Xia Dong, Sun Han, you three will search for a place to stay.”
Everyone agreed without any objections. The division of labor was already quite perfect. After discussing the rough routes, they each found a place to rest.
Although they had no food left, Fu Shinan’s car still had a few cans of meat.
“There’s not much, but two people can share a can to replenish their energy.” Ji Zan shook his head. “You and Professor Feng should eat it! I’m not hungry.” “I’m not hungry either,” Fu Shinan said and handed the can to Professor Feng. The young ones could endure, but the elderly and children couldn’t.
But even Professor Feng didn’t eat it and passed it to Man Yu.
In the end, everyone except Xiao Chang’an, who took a few bites and fell asleep, didn’t eat. Perhaps even the heavens thought they had suffered enough and spared them from a zombie attack that night. The next morning, they set off according to their original plan.
Instead of directly searching for supplies, Ji Zan went back to their previous base.
The three of them entered the collapsed building and inspected the area. At that moment, Ji Zan’s attention was caught by a red pipe. He picked it up and examined it, his face turning serious. “It’s a detonator. The fire was intentionally caused.”
Hearing this, Fu Shinan recalled the loud noise she heard before the fire. At the time, she thought something had fallen or hit something, but now it seemed like it was the trigger! She furrowed her brow and asked, “Could there be other survivors in An Town? After all, obtaining a detonator at this time is not something an ordinary person can do. But why would they want to blow us
“Human hearts are unpredictable. It could be some people with extreme dispositions,” Ji Zan frowned, realizing that this unknown danger was the most lethal.
The three of them got back in the car, and MO Cheng asked, “So where do we go now to find food?” After all, the nearby supermarkets and such were mostly empty.
Ji Zan glanced southward and said, “Every city has food storage warehouses. At this time, we can only rely on luck.”
However, they didn’t know the exact location, so they could only search street by street in An Town. Three hours passed, and they had found nothing.
MO Cheng couldn’t help but feel restless and frustrated due to the scorching weather. “Where is this food storage warehouse? What if it got buried due to an earthquake or something?”
Just as he finished speaking, Ji Zan suddenly slammed on the brakes. “What’s wrong?” Fu Shinan grew nervous and instinctively looked around.
“There’s rice on the ground.” Ji Zan got out of the car and saw scattered traces of rice leading into a large rock-shaped building ahead. From the exterior, about one-third of it was damaged, revealing the inner steel beams, but most of it still seemed intact. The traces of rice led from this chimney-shaped structure, indicating that after the disaster, some items had been scattered outside.
“Let’s go inside and take a look,” Ji Zan took out two hunting rifles and handed one to MO Cheng.
“Give me one too,” Fu Shinan reached out her hand. Ji Zan hadn’t seen her shooting before, so he didn’t know about her skills.
“Can you?” Ji Zan raised his eyebrows.Previously, when Fu Shinan fired the gun, he didn’t see it, so he naturally didn’t know Fu Shinan’s ability..
