Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 488 - Base Heating

Chapter 488: Chapter 488 Base Heating

Chapter 488: Chapter 488 Base Heating

The weather was getting colder and colder, the biting winter wind cutting like a knife against one’s face.

At the entrance of S City’s base city, a windproof and cold-proof guard booth had been built, even providing heating inside.

Indeed, due to the extremely cold weather, S City base had started heating, although it only began after 6 p.m., it made everyone feel immensely blessed.

The person at the registration booth happily said, “Su Jin and Lu Hao are back too.”

“They’re back, that’s good. Once they’re back, we have confidence,”

said another person.

Lately, more and more survivors had been flocking to S City base, and the zombies that followed were slowly increasing in number as well.

It was said that Base Leader Liang Jiuhui, worried about a second Zombie Tide, had already started recruiting people who could join the teams producing ammunition and weapons.

Now, seeing that Su Jin and Lu Hao’s family were also back, everyone felt immensely relieved; after all, each of Su Jin’s Mutated Plants could fight off thousands on its own.

The villa also provided heating; as Su Jin and company pushed open the door, a wave of warm air greeted them.

Following this were the broad smiles and hugs from Guo Yang and others.

“You’re finally back, I’ve missed you so much,”

Liao Yifan happily hugged the ladies.

“Are you thinking about food or us?” Su Jin teased.

“Of course, I… miss everything, hahaha,”

Liao Yifan had not initially thought about food, but after Su Jin’s mention, she immediately felt hungry.

“Captain Lu, you’ve worked hard,”

Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin also came over smiling.

These past days, living in the warm villa, eating the food left by Su Jin and Lu Hao’s family, their hearts were filled with gratitude at all times. They were just helping out at Guo Yang’s shop or running errands, and yet they could eat well and stay warm every day – in the Apocalypse, this was truly a blessing.

In contrast, Su Jin’s family was still toiling away, collecting supplies everywhere.

“Hmm, how’s business been recently?”

Lu Hao asked as he took off his jacket and hung it on the coat rack.

“It has to be good, right? There are lots of people every day, and the branches are just as popular,”

Guo Yang replied happily.

The family naturally heard about the two stores’ sales conditions from Mao Zhihang and Lin Tianzhen in the Space, but to appear natural, Lu Hao still asked a few questions.

Local Tyrant Gold excitedly bounded around Su Jin; it had not seen its mistress for so long! It really wanted to go to its grandparents’, to that place with lots of fruits.

But the family, just back, were all busy chatting and unpacking, not noticing Local Tyrant Gold’s anxiety.

Su Jin likely guessed Local Tyrant Gold’s thoughts, but she couldn’t throw it into the Space in front of everyone, so she just took out a peach from the Space and gave it to Local Tyrant Gold.

“You eat this first; we’re a bit busy right now,” Su Jin said.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!

Upon seeing the peach, Local Tyrant Gold stopped pestering Su Jin. It longed for the large peaches in the Space, so Local Tyrant Gold, holding a peach almost as big as its own belly, sat down quietly and nibbled away.

From the moment she entered the door, Su Jin felt a gaze fervently watching her, and when she looked in the direction of the gaze, she discovered it was Lian Jiyue sitting in the corner, staring at her with an odd look in his eyes.

“Sister Xiao Jin, Xiao Yue just really wants to eat meat. These days, we’ve been eating at the base canteen,”

Mao Qiqi hurriedly came up to explain.

“…”

So he had been looking at her all this time, waiting for something to eat?

Su Jin suddenly felt as if she was raising a large wolfhound at home.

But remembering the appetite of the giant Labi in her space, she generously took out a porcelain bowl of stewed meat and placed it on the table in front of Lian Jiyue.

“We’ve collected quite a bit on this trip out. This is also stewed by ourselves at the place we were staying before. Let Qiqi feed him,” Su Jin explained.

The stewed meat was prepared by Lin Yunguo before they left and had cooled down outside, which is why she dared to bring it out.

“Really, Su Jin? How much stuff did you guys collect?”

Upon hearing this, Guo Yang and the others became excited, after all, Su Jin and her group had been out for more than 20 days. It seemed like they brought back a lot of good stuff.

“A lot, we went from S City to A City and D City, then turned back. We managed to scavenge a lot from those big supermarkets and granaries,” Su Xiangzhe said mysteriously.

“Wow…”

Aside from Mao Zhihang, Lin Tianzhen, and Lin Tianhui, the rest of the people suddenly looked at Su Jin and her group with eyes full of anticipation; crossing three cities with their capabilities, just how much supplies had they brought back!

“Rest assured everyone, the supplies in my space can last us a very, very long time,” Su Jin said with a smile

The corner of the table was filled with the fragrance of stewed meat as Lian Jiyue had already started eating. Qiqi said the whole bowl was for him alone and even gave him a pair of gloves to wear.

The stewed meat was aromatic, and the smell made everyone in the room suddenly feel hungry. While instructing everyone to wash their hands, Su Jin laid out a table full of sumptuous dinner.

Outside, the cold wind continued to blow, but inside the villa, the family enjoyed the steaming hot food and chatted about the adventures Su Jin and her group had on the road, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.

Guo Yang took a bite of the melt-in-your-mouth braised pork and exclaimed in surprise, “Mutated plants ate all the people in A City’s base? What kind of base is that?”

“That’s why, now the survivors from A City are all gathered in a factory. We even went to see it; it’s warm and safe inside,” said Lu Guanhai while chewing his food, as others listened intently, completely unaware of the teasing glint in the eyes of Su Jin and the others.

“Compared to the bases in A City and D City, our base in S City is practically paradise; we even have heating,” Lin Xiuyuan mused, now finding the villa rather comfortable. Thinking about their upcoming cushy life in such a pleasant place, he felt that all the struggles since the apocalypse had been worthwhile.

Meanwhile, Lian Ze and Moli had also found an unexpected dwelling for themselves.

The two of them were suspected of causing chaos in the base and were detained by the security team.

The reason was simple; after the two of them arrived, they followed Ban Xiaobo and his group to their garage.

Moli had promised to demonstrate the car’s features, so she had Lian Ze inside the car demonstrating to people like Ban Xiaobo outside, while she explained to the group.

Lian Ze had no intention of holding back and showcased all the features of the car, inside and out.

But when he got to the gun barrel on top of the car, Moli immediately felt an ominous premonition as she watched the gun barrel automatically rotate and extend.

He’s not going to…

“No, Lian Ze!!”

Moli shouted loudly, but it was too late, as Lian Ze inside the car couldn’t hear her, and the gunpowder in the barrel was clearly already chambered.

Bang!

A loud noise echoed throughout the base.
