Once a week, this frequency was indeed just right. Du Yue took out a bucket from her space. There was just half a bucket of water inside. Xia Ju directly poured the nutrient solution in. The nutrient solution was originally a faint pink color. Now that it had been diluted by this half bucket of water, it was almost impossible to see any color. Du Yue accompanied Xia Ju. The two of them split up and began to irrigate the logistics box in the living room. When the two of them were done, He Xing came out of the kitchen with breakfast.
Du Yue and Xia Ju washed their hands and walked to the dining table together. When Du Yue and He Xing were eating, there was no difference from before. Xia Ju was the only one who had changed from being absent-minded to eating very seriously and very quickly! It could be said that she was wolfing down her food. With Xia Ju’s eating speed, those who did not know better would think that she had been hungry for a long time. In fact, although Xia Ju had been thinking about the nutrient solution for the past few days, she had not missed a bite of food!
Du Yue looked at Xia Ju with concern. When she had finished eating almost all the food on the table, she even asked considerately, “Are you full? Do you want to eat something else?”
Xia Ju was originally eating bitterly with her head lowered. When she suddenly heard Du Yue speaking to her in such a gentle tone, she was stunned and loosened her grip. The chopsticks that she used to pick up the food instantly fell on the table.
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you suddenly talking to me in this tone?”
Du Yue smiled kindly. “No, I’m just speaking normally.” She was speaking in such a gentle tone. Was Xia Ju unhappy about it?
Xia Ju looked at He Xing in horror. “It’s over, it’s over. Quickly take your wife to see a doctor. Is her brain damaged?”
Du Yue, who had a kind face, instantly darkened. “Hehe!” This child… No, what should she do if Xia Ju was disobedient? She would starve her for two meals!
Du Yue did not ask her if she wanted to eat anything else anymore. Instead, she stood up and said, Since you’re full, you can stay at home and look after the house. We’re going out for a while.”
Xia Ju looked at Du Yue, who had turned hostile faster than flipping a book, and her face was full of doubt. “What are you going out for?”
“We’re going to get rid of the corpses in the space.” She did not want those corpses to stay in the space forever. It was disgusting.
Hearing that Du Yue was going to deal with the corpses, Xia Ju lost interest and waved at them. “Go early and come back early. I’ll stay at home and look after the house.”
Du Yue and He Xing did not waste any more time. They packed their things and got into the car together. When they drove to the gate of the base, they saw some cars that were also preparing to leave the base. There was no charge to enter the base, but one needed to swipe their identity card. When they swiped their cards to leave, the man who was guarding the gate was the same man they met when they first arrived at the fourth base. It had not been long, so he still remembered Du Yue and He Xing.
When he saw them, he even smiled at them. If not for the fact that there were too many cars waiting in line to leave, he might have been able to chat with Du Yue and He Xing. Once the two left the base, they could find a deserted place to dispose of the bodies. Anyway, at this time, anyone who saw a few corpses in the wilderness would not find it strange. In the apocalypse, people died almost every second. People could not even guarantee their own food and clothing, so who would care about other people’s business?
After throwing the corpses into the deep mountains, He Xing asked Du Yue, “Alright, let’s go home too?”
Du Yue patted the dust off her body. “Alright, let’s go.”
Jinyang County, where the fourth base was located, was a famous scenic spot before the apocalypse. Many tourists came to visit it every year. Now that the city was in ruins, there was no need for them to stay any longer than they needed to. He Xing drove while Du Yue sat in the front passenger seat. She was reading the city brochure that introduced Jinyang County in her hand. At the same time, she told He Xing about the situation in the city, “There’s a volcanic site in Jinyang County…”
Before Du Yue could finish, He Xing interrupted him, “Volcanic site?”
“Yeah, why?”
He Xing’s lips were originally still holding a faint smile, but now, he could not maintain it at all. “I don’t have a good feeling about it.”
Looking at He Xing’s worried face, Du Yue immediately understood why he was worried. “It’s okay. This volcano has been extinct for many years. It hasn’t erupted for hundreds of years. In the future, it should…”
Halfway through her sentence, Du Yue looked at He Xing’s solemn expression and could not continue. Yes, even if it was a volcano that had been silent for hundreds of years, who could guarantee that it would not erupt? Ever since the apocalypse, all kinds of disasters that were previously thought impossible or even absurd had occurred..
