The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 271 - 270 In this lifetime, it’s best not to meet again
Chapter 271: 270 In this lifetime, it’s best not to meet again
Ma Yongchun pleaded,
"I know I wronged you, but since I married you, I have never been unfaithful."
"As for our marriage and our children, I have been loyal and sincerely wanted to be a good husband and a good father."
He knew Ma Zhixuan had committed an unforgivable error, hence, Ma Yongchun asked for nothing else,
"Just let him keep his life, even if he’s maimed, anything is fine, as long as he lives."
Qin Zhen listened calmly and said over the phone,
"Ma Yongchun, I know that nothing I say now will make a difference, but given your brother’s behavior, do you really think that he would quietly show up before me in Xiang City and let me spare him?"
No one knew where the group of assassins would take Ma Zhixuan.
But now with the heavy snow sealing off the city, they would either go to D City or Xiang City.
Several assassins died this time; they wouldn’t let it go and would eventually seek revenge.
And Ma Zhixuan, if he appeared again, would certainly not come with a change of heart to make peace with Qin Zhen and the others.
In a situation where it’s either kill or be killed, would Qin Zhen, even if willing to forgive Ma Yongchun, let him go? Would Garrison agree? Would Hua Mi agree?
Would Zhou Cheng agree?
So Ma Yongchun’s pleas to Qin Zhen were futile; Qin Zhen could not intervene.
"The only thing you can pray for now is that Ma Zhixuan keeps quiet and causes no more trouble."
After saying that, Qin Zhen hung up on Ma Yongchun.
She bit her lower lip and thought for a long time, eventually adding Ma Yongchun’s phone number and all contact details to the blacklist.
There was no need for contact in the future; C City was buried under the snow, and Ma Yongchun’s title as Commander of C City was in name only.
There wouldn’t be any official matters to coordinate with Ma Yongchun anymore.
That was goodbye then; in this lifetime, it was best not to meet again.
Ma Yongchun’s dejection and helplessness, his urgency and despair, were of no concern to anyone.
At this time, Gong Yi called Hua Mi; he had run off to D City and still had not seen a trace of Scorpion Man.
Hua Mi leaned back in her chair, stroking her 5-month pregnant belly, breathing slightly heavy, she frowned and said,
"This monster definitely needs to eat, it will head to the most populous place. If it hasn’t gone to D City, then it will go to Xiang City."
The snow was too heavy and the creature too fast; even Gong Yi couldn’t locate it, and sending more people would be futile.
Hua Mi sighed,
"Now there’s no other choice but to hold our own fortresses."
It was troublesome; there were so many survivors outside the city, almost completely unguarded. If targeted by this creature, it rarely missed.
Just as Hua Mi and Gong Yi were talking, the clearing work at the end of Xiang C Highway was completed.
[Defense Project: Xiang C Highway clearing completed]
[Rating: Basic Protection Project]
[Acquired 16 square meters of Black Land, please designate a location for the Black Land.]
[Received lottery draw X1]
[Remaining lottery draws X19]
Hua Mi, still sitting on her chair, suddenly stood up, startling Shi Caixia, who was warming herself by the fire, also stood up,
"What’s wrong? Ah Mi, have those assassins come back?"
Hua Mi shook her head and said to Shi Caixia,
"I need to go back to Xiang City."
She hung up the phone on Gong Yi, walked out of the tent, and arrived in front of the C City material warehouse, taking the newly acquired 16 square meters of Black Land and slicing out 1 square meter.
She directly placed it in front of the warehouse’s entrance.
Then she opened the interface for producing her Teleportation Ticket and as expected, inside was:
[C City·Supply Depot]1888 yuan, [Redeem Now]
Hua Mi used money to exchange for a stack of [Xiang City Observation Tower]Teleportation Tickets and handed them to the approaching Zhou Cheng,
"Once there’s uncontrollable danger, immediately tear up the ticket in your hand. I’m not joking, I need to leave here."
She feared that once she left, Scorpion Man would return here and devour Zhou Cheng and the others at the Garrison.
Now that C City was sealed off, the survivors in the entire C City had gradually been moved to Xiang City.
Thus, C City had become a city that only existed in name and had disappeared into the snowy plains.
Gong Yi had Zhou Cheng withdraw all the Garrison maintaining order inside and outside C City.
Currently, there were 1500 Garrison troops near C City’s Supply Depot.
This was also quite a considerable force.
It was not guaranteed that Scorpion Man wouldn’t return here to ambush Zhou Cheng and others when unable to find food in the icy wilderness.
Therefore, Hua Mi had to leave a route for retreat for Zhou Cheng and the others.
Leaving a teleportation point here would also ensure convenience for returning in the future.
After explaining all this, without regard to what Zhou Cheng might think, she asked Shi Caixia,
"Will you stay here, or come back to Xiang City with me?"
When she said this, Zhong Zimo had also approached.
Zhong Zimo said to Shi Caixia,
"You come with me to find Commander Ma..."
"I will go with you," Shi Caixia said to Hua Mi, ignoring Zhong Zimo.
Zhong Zimo’s face turned quite ugly.
But he had no standing in front of Hua Mi and couldn’t speak up; Hua Mi didn’t even glance at Zhong Zimo.
She also ignored the pitying, reluctant gaze Zhou Cheng gave Shi Caixia and took Shi Caixia onto the snowmobile brought by the group of assassins.
The C City Supply Depot was not far from the Xiang C Highway, and once on the highway, Hua Mi found her Eighth Uncle to help transport the supplies.
All members of the Clearing Team had to wear Protective Clothing to work.
Although the Protective Clothing was cumbersome, it could still offer wind and snow protection in this weather.
Then Hua Mi arranged work for Shi Caixia, asking her to recruit a group of people to deliver Protective Clothing to each ice house along the Xiang C, Xiang B, and Xiang A Highways.
She wanted all the active survivors along these highways to wear Protective Clothing.
Although the thin Protective Clothing might not completely stop a savage attack, it was better than nothing.
In this manner, transporting goods all the way, Hua Mi and Gong Yi rushed back to Xiang City from two directions.
The two briefly met at the entrance of Xiang City.
In the swirling large snowflakes, Gong Yi clasped Hua Mi’s hands, placing her cold hands to his lips to breathe on them, attempting to warm Hua Mi’s hands with his warmth,
"Your belly is already big. Don’t jump around like before. At 5 months with twins, it’s really inconvenient."
Gong Yi admonished, watching Hua Mi walk briskly, he felt concerned.
Hua Mi, treated like delicate glass, gave Gong Yi a white look,
"Worry about yourself. With so many survivors out there, that monster hasn’t been found yet. Who knows how many people might get infected."
As she said this, her gaze paused when she saw a line of strong men entering the city.
Pupil scans, ID checks, there were no problems.
To increase survival rates, in this extreme environment, more and more strong men formed teams.
Hua Mi shifted her gaze, watching Gong Yi’s worried expression amid the fluttering heavy snow,
"Go ahead, don’t worry about me. If someone comes, I kill the person; if a monster comes, I kill the monster."
