Jack knew what Jera was going to say even if she didn't open her mouth. After hearing her request to leave, Jack didn't say anything for a long time.
Jack put his right hand on the p95 pistol in his right pocket.
He was hesitating whether he should kill her or spend more time persuading her to stay.
She did have a reason to go back.
For a long time when Jack was busy building the refuge, Jera wandered around the refuge every day. She secretly studied the structure and system of the refuge, and now she has made a very systematic theory.
She had to bring this theory back to the organization so that humans could build more refuges like this in the future to deal with the doomsday disaster.
Besides, she had her father, mother, brother, and sister. Since the doomsday had begun, she had completely lost contact with her family.
Only when she returned to the ground could she have the chance to reunite with her family.
