In days gone by.
Xu Qian frowned. In her dream, the little ball held its parents and smiled happily, its face ruddy. The little ball turned and smiled, saying, "Sister, you have to save more people."
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Xu Qian."
She sat up abruptly, her chest heaving.
Xu Qian pressed her throbbing temples and got up to open the door.
The smile on his face spread across his entire face. "Xu Qian, we've unanimously decided to go to the G City base together."
Xu Qian nodded. "Then tell everyone to pack their things. We'll set off this afternoon."
"How about I introduce you to the members of our Whirlwind Team? They're all very good and warm-hearted. Besides, the journey is long, and we'll need your cooperation."
She smiled helplessly. "Let me wash up and change my clothes first."
Ye Yunzhou's face turned red. He only now realized she was wearing pajamas, her hair messy, clearly just woken up.
"No rush. You go change first. I'll wait for you outside."
With that, he turned around quickly, his back to Xu Qian.
A hint of a smile couldn't help but appear in Xu Qian's eyes. She raised her hand and closed the door.
"Bang."
Ye Yunzhou's whole body trembled, and a blush crept onto his face.
He actually knocked on a girl's door before she was awake. How rude.
Soon, Xu Qian tied a high ponytail and came out in a black tracksuit. "Let's go."
Ye Yunzhou's eyes flickered. "Okay."
The two went to a conference room. The door was open. There were many sleeping bags and backpacks on the floor. A group of people were gathered in a circle playing chess.
Xu Qian's gaze deepened. It seemed the team usually lived here.
Ye Yunzhou sighed. "They insisted on sleeping in the conference room to leave beds for the survivors. They're all good people."
He clapped his hands. "Everyone come over. I'll introduce you."
Upon hearing this, they stood up and gathered around. There were young people and middle-aged people. Their faces were dirty, but their eyes showed no trace of despair.
Everyone looked confused. Why were they introducing a little girl?
A glint flashed in Xu Qian's eyes. This was how the strong in the apocalypse were born: first, not being timid and afraid of trouble, and second, having great martial prowess.
"Oh, right, classmate Xu, this is our Whirlwind Team Captain, Yan Huai."
Xu Qian's eyes deepened, and she turned her head.
A tall figure walked out of the bathroom. He was exceptionally handsome, with a stern and charming demeanor, exuding an aura that kept others at a distance.
A hint of surprise flickered in Xu Qian's eyes. Shouldn't Jiang Huai be by Jiang Shuo's side? httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
The man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a light voice, "Hello, I'm Yan Huai."
Xu Qian raised her eyebrows and lightly touched his palm with her finger, not grasping it, then let go.
"I'm Xu Qian."
Ye Yunzhou introduced the other 11 people one by one.
Xu Qian had a basic understanding of the Whirlwind Team's situation. These people were a team formed by hospital family members, security guards, or retired soldiers. They would go out daily to search for supplies to sustain the hospital's food.
She raised her chin, facing dozens of men, her gaze still steady.
"I won't waste time. As you all know, we're heading to the G City base. The base is located in the suburbs of G City, so we need to pass through F City, B City, and then traverse the entire G City before reaching the G City base."
She raised her hand and checked the time.
"It's 9 AM now. We'll set off at 12 PM today. Dr. Ye said there are 90 people in the second-floor inpatient department. With you, that's about 100 people in total. When I came to the hospital, I saw several buses parked downstairs. We'll clear out two of those buses first and have them ride the buses. The journey is long, and it's easier to keep track. What do you think?"
Everyone responded.
"That's a good idea."
"Yes."
"12 PM is too early!"
"Yeah, there's not enough time."
The girl's gaze was composed, her voice calm.
"I'll say it again. F City is on the border of G City. The unobstructed journey will take 3 hours. If unexpected situations arise, such as being intercepted or robbed, the time could extend indefinitely. Besides, I'm in a hurry. I'll clear out one of the buses. You deal with the other. Any objections?"
"You're a young lady, how can you have so much ability?"
"The buses are packed with zombies!"
"How is that possible! It's only three hours."
"Exactly!"
