Song Jun was indeed the first person to hear his confession.
Just moments ago, Song Jun was feeling heartbroken, but upon hearing the word "um," he instantly panicked: "Damn it, I'm doomed."
Instructor Xie is not a magnanimous person.
His wife's confession was overheard by another man. He had a feeling that Instructor Xie might be up to something!
"An'an, don't tell Instructor Xie about our conversation today."
Song Jun's will to survive was still very strong. He was flexible and decisive, swallowing his unspoken thoughts.
He doesn't deserve to steal Instructor Xie's wife!
While Yu An was on the plane, in a pile of ruins, Xie Chiyuan himself, looking annoyed, was also irritated: "What a lousy place! No internet, no cell phone. I shouldn't have taken this job."
He was incredibly annoyed and glanced behind him again.
It will be soon.
After accompanying the zombie king through all the tests, he can go back to find An'an.
This time, he thought to himself that he should at least get a permanent position.
Chapter 95
Yu An was still talking to Song Jun from time to time, while Qiu Qiu remained silent and didn't interrupt. Xiao Ba in the pocket, whether asleep or awake, didn't make a sound.
"An'an, are you really going by yourself?"
Song Jun asked Yu An for the 108th time. He was genuinely worried about Yu An taking such a timid little brat on a mission.
If something really happens, Instructor Xie will probably go crazy, right?
Another important reason why Song Jun was able to give up trying to steal his instructor's girlfriend after the initial bitterness was that Instructor Xie was much older than him and this was his first time dating.
He's still young; there's no need for him to argue with an instructor who's been with him for so long.
Yu An replied again, "I'm really fine, you don't need to worry about me. I have two kids on the island, so I'll have to trouble you to take care of them."
"two?"
Song Jun seemed not to have realized what was happening. He counted the remaining creatures on the island and felt that there was only one cub left.
He and Yu An couldn't stay together any longer.
The plane landed at the exit of the old city, where, during the outbreak, walls had been erected at the entrances of almost every district.
This retro approach can sometimes be quite useful.
However, for the ruined old city of Elm, which has been ravaged by zombies and mutants, the city walls that are now in sight are like a useless piece of junk.
Yu An carried a large backpack when she went out, and Qiu Qiu also had a lizard skin bag hanging on her. When taking the kids out, there are still many necessities.
"An'an, shall I help you set up the tent? You can't just come here and stay in the city. Let's check out the situation first before we take any action."
"I'll build it myself."
Yu An didn't let Song Jun waste any more time. Song Jun had already completed his mission by bringing him here.
Seeing that he wanted to be independent, Song Jun could no longer force him.
"An'an, there's a signal here. If you encounter any problems, remember to contact us immediately!"
"Okay! I got it, bye-bye!"
After seeing Song Jun off, Yu An glanced at the sky. He then looked at the old city not far away. With his son by his side, he felt safe no matter where he went.
But we just got off the plane, so the kids need to get some rest.
"Chirp chirp".
Yu An put Qiu Qiu on a rock to sit on, and then he brought out Ba Zai: "You and Xiao Ba can sit here and play. Big brother will set up a tent for you, and we'll sleep in the tent at night."
With his phone around his neck and a lizard-skin bag slung across his shoulder, Chuchu swung his little feet and obediently agreed.
Ba Zai couldn't sit still, and seeing that Yu An was setting up a tent, he came over to help.
Hachiko has many tentacles and is very strong, so having him around definitely makes things much easier.
The tent was set up in no time.
Yu An put the nightlight down and went inside to lie down and try it out: "There's enough space. I can lie down with the kids."
The kids had never stayed in a tent before, so they were incredibly curious about it.
Yu An took out the nutritional paste and milk from his bag, and while having dinner with the kids, he sat at the tent entrance, looking at the night outside.
The night was quiet, with only the occasional soft buzzing of mosquitoes in the grass.
Chiu Chiu lay on Yu An's lap, his round eyes wide as he watched everything. After a while, he took Yu An's hand and said, "Big brother, this place is beautiful."
A quiet tent, a quiet environment.
It was quiet, as if only he, Xiao Ba, and his older brother remained.
Yu An was enjoying this rare time with his family. He squinted his eyes and said in a relaxed tone, "Actually, the scenery here is quite nice, but it's a pity that not many people can see it."
Not long after he said this, someone refuted his assertion.
In the quiet night, several people staggered out of the old city gate. Some of them helped each other, while others ignored everything and just kept rushing forward.
Yu An heard footsteps and looked in the direction of the sound.
The last person slammed the city gate shut. The gate was a gateway to modern technology; once it was closed, it felt safer.
Yu An stared blankly at the survivors.
He's only been on the ground for less than two hours. Could his mission be almost complete?!
Chiu Chiu also saw those people. He didn't move, but just looked at the little octopus that was still rolling around in the tent.
"Chirp chirp, go back to your tent."
Yu An didn't call for help rashly. He took out his gun and cautiously walked towards the group of people.
Just as he walked over, the other person had already noticed the tent.
"Help!"
The hoarse cries for help were squeezed out of his throat with difficulty, clearly indicating severe dehydration.
When Yu An saw their faces clearly, he was stunned. He felt that he had seen these faces before in the basement of the old city.
But that's unlikely, since it's been a long time since he last visited the old town.
The army has come in person; if they were the survivors from last time, they would have been taken out long ago. How have those who couldn't be taken out survived so long in the old city?
"Help! Help us!"
The boy running in front threw himself into Yu An's arms. His clothes were stained with blood, and two other boys followed behind him.
The two boys looked like they were on the verge of exhaustion, and they saw Yu An as their only lifeline.
Yu An scanned them up and down, and after finding nothing unusual, he led them to the tent.
"You guys go first."
Yu An pointed to the grass and told them to sit down: "Sit here and catch your breath. I'll get you some water."
He handed over several bottles of mineral water, which the three boys accepted. They eagerly opened the bottles and drank them down in large gulps.
After drinking water and sitting on the ground for a while, the three boys finally looked a little better.
"Thanks."
One of the rather handsome boys spoke up, thanking Yu An: "I haven't had any water for two days."
These boys looked terrible; they were exhausted, both in spirit and appearance.
Hearing that their voices weren't so hoarse anymore, Yu An asked, "How did you escape from the old city? Are there any survivors left in the city?"
“Our hometown is here. Not long ago, we rushed back from outside, hoping to find our family. But we couldn’t find any relatives at all, and we were even trapped inside. The zombies inside are different from the ones we encountered outside. The zombies here are very smart.”
Upon hearing this, Yu An thought to himself that it was probably an intelligent, evolved zombie looking for a place to settle down, which was why it chose this kind of old city with few people.
There weren't many survivors living in the old city to begin with, and a large number of them were taken away last time. Normally, it would be a very suitable place for non-humans to live.
After the survivors were relocated, the West District did not pay much attention to this area.
Before Yu An arrived, Ruan Ke told him to come in and take a look. If there were no survivors, he could come back.
"There weren't many supplies in the city. We were hiding and hiding, but we couldn't find our family. We really couldn't stay there any longer, so we ran away."
Yu An observed that they did not appear to be infected; at least on exposed parts of their bodies, there were no bites.
Chiu Chiu and Ba Zai's reactions were also lukewarm, so these three people probably aren't mutants either.
Having ruled out the two dangerous options, Yu An felt slightly relieved about the three young men. He gave them some food and handed them an unused tent bag.
"Here you go, set it up yourselves, and sleep here tonight."
Is it...safe here?
"Safety."
Yu An comforted them, saying, "Actually, I'm here on a mission. My mission is to search for any survivors in the old city. With me here, you don't need to be afraid tonight. Just get a good night's sleep."
The group looked at Yu An's face with suspicion.
The usually taciturn curly-haired man hesitated before asking, "You...you really can protect us?"
"Of course you can."
Yu An confidently explained, "I've received rigorous training! Don't let my short stature fool you, I'm actually incredibly capable."
I wonder if Yu An's words dispelled their doubts.
After a moment of silence, the three boys set up the tent together.
Before crawling into the tent, they anxiously asked Yu An, "Are we really out of danger? There are still zombies in the city, and we're living just outside the city. This distance is too close."
Yu An assured him, "You're all safe now, so go to sleep."
Chiu Chiu and Ba Zai stayed in the tent, too lazy to show themselves.
