Just as the short - haired woman said, there were quite a few vehicles parked here.
There were buses, coaches, and some cars.
Fortunately, there were enough vehicles, otherwise, over a hundred people really wouldn't have been able to fit.
Liu Ruyan looked at the short - haired woman. "Aren't you going to take some food?"
The man was dead, and there were no other survivors in the underground city now. Why not search for some food?
Hearing this, the short - haired woman was silent for a moment. "We were the food."
As soon as these words came out, it suddenly became quiet all around.
Liu Ruyan felt that it was a bit difficult to breathe. After a few seconds, she spoke again, her voice a bit hoarse. "Then, get in the car!"
The short - haired woman nodded silently, distributed the keys to several others, and led everyone towards the vehicles.
Seeing that they had all gotten into the cars, Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan turned and walked towards the main road.
There was no need to find the way because walking out along the exit led to the road.
They didn't walk very fast, and the cars behind were even slower.
Although the speed was really slow, not a single car honked, and no one urged Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan saw their car parked by the roadside.
The two got into their respective cars, honked the horn twice to signal the cars behind, and then drove off.
With no one else in the car, Zhang Yuan then asked Liu Ruyan, "Why did you decide to bring them back to the base?"
Liu Ruyan shook her head. "I'm not bringing them back to the base. We're just going back to the base, and they're following us."
Hearing Liu Ruyan say this, a hint of helplessness flashed in Zhang Yuan's eyes, but he didn't dwell on it too much.
It had been several years since they got to know each other.
Zhang Yuan knew Liu Ruyan's personality very well.
Since she said so, that's how it was!
What Liu Ruyan said went, and nothing else mattered!
Zhang Yuan drove in the front to lead the way, and the cars behind followed closely.
Thinking that those people had nothing to eat or drink and their health was poor, Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan discussed and decided not to stop on the way, driving straight towards the base.
Fortunately, when they came, they had cleared the road surface.
Now driving back, there were no obstacles on the road, and the speed was quite fast.
At this speed, they would probably be able to return to the base before dark.
So many vehicles driving on the road would still make some noise.
The survivors who had left the underground city and gone to search in the city heard the noise and gathered around one after another.
Seeing someone blocking the middle of the road ahead, Zhang Yuan had no intention of stopping.
These people, as the subordinates of that man, following his orders, none of them were innocent. They all deserved to die.
Because the speed of the car wasn't fast enough, the person blocking the road quickly dodged to the roadside before the car hit him.
Since they couldn't run him over, Liu Ruyan gave him a bullet.
It was the first meeting and also the last. They had to give a "gift" anyway.
Surely there were other survivors hiding in the fog. After seeing this scene, they didn't dare to show up again.
Zhang Yuan and Liu Ruyan didn't stop because of this either.
If they dared to show up, they would just kill them.
If they didn't, they could live a few more days.
Anyway, after they got back, they would tell Kong Rui about the situation here, and Kong Rui would send people over.
As Liu Ruyan expected, they returned to the base when it was dark.
By this time, the base gate had been closed.
Although they were outside the base gate, the mobile phone had network coverage.
Zhang Yuan called Kong Rui and briefly explained the situation in a few words.
Shortly after hanging up the phone, the base gate slowly opened. Zhang Yuan drove the car and entered the base first.
The cars behind followed closely, for fear that if they were a step late, they would be locked outside.
Zhang Yuan drove forward for more than a hundred meters before stopping the car.
The cars following behind also stopped.
Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan opened the car doors and got out. Just as they stood still, the short - haired woman ran over from the car in front.
She looked around nervously and uneasily.
Just as Liu Ruyan was about to speak, a car came from the opposite side and stopped beside them.
The car stopped, and Kong Rui got out.
Kong Rui first looked at Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan carefully. Seeing that the two were safe and sound, he then looked at the short - haired woman. "Are these the survivors you brought back?"
Zhang Yuan nodded. "Yes. She, and those in the cars behind, are all survivors who were imprisoned.
You can ask about the specific situation slowly."
"Okay!" Kong Rui agreed and told Chen Shi beside him, "You take some people and take them down to settle them first. Give them something to eat and drink. After they've rested, ask them about the specific situation tomorrow."
"Yes!"
Chen Shi responded and motioned for the short - haired woman to follow him.
The short - haired woman was a bit nervous and subconsciously looked at Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan looked directly into her eyes. "They are the managers of the base. You don't need to worry about anything.
In the base, as long as you're not afraid of hard work and are willing to follow the arrangements to work, you'll have a place to live, and there will be food and drink.
No one will force you to do things you don't want to do, and you don't need to worry about becoming food."
Liu Ruyan's words gradually made the short - haired woman feel at ease. She nodded. "I understand! Thank you!
Will we be able to see you again in the future?"
Liu Ruyan shook her head. "There's no need to."
She couldn't provide them with work, nor could she supply them with food and drink, and she didn't need their gratitude.
Naturally, there was no need to meet again.
Hearing this, the short - haired woman bit her lower lip, bowed to Liu Ruyan again, and then followed Chen Shi.
Kong Rui hadn't spoken until now. Then he said, "You must be tired. Go back and rest first. We can talk about things tomorrow, right?"
"No need to wait until tomorrow." Liu Ruyan liked to finish things on the same day. "Find a place. We'll tell you everything and then go back."
Kong Rui looked at Zhang Yuan, asking for his opinion.
Zhang Yuan directly said, "I'll do whatever Liu Ruyan says."
Since it was said like this, what else could Kong Rui say? He could only agree.
There were guard posts, guards, dormitories, and offices at the base gate.
Kong Rui led them to an office, and the three of them took their seats respectively.
Without Liu Ruyan having to speak, Zhang Yuan told everything that happened after they entered the city in detail.
As for the part about the interstellar, Zhang Yuan didn't fully disclose it.
"He and I are from the same place. There are at least six and at most eight people from the same place as us.
He said there's one in the Second Base.
Captain Kong, we'll be leaving soon."
Kong Rui was silent for a moment and asked, "Going to the Second Base?"
"Yes."
This was also the decision made by Liu Ruyan and Zhang Yuan after discussing on the way back.
Neither Liu Ruyan nor Zhang Yuan had thought of being saviors.
They couldn't change the apocalypse and couldn't save the world.
But if people from the interstellar wanted to dominate Blue Star, no matter where those people were, they would surely be eliminated!
