Chapter 37 Parting ways
After Ye Duo got on the van, she began to breathe heavily, partly from running and the other part from being scared.

"Snapped!"

The car door was slammed shut, and the other zombies pounced on it like cats smelling fish, banging on the door.

"Drive." Chaolu said, "Let's go to a safe place first."

"Okay!" Zhu Dafu responded, and rushed out with his foot on the accelerator. "By the way, there is not much gas in the car. We have to go refuel later."

"I saw a gas station when I was driving around this morning. Another car should also need to refuel. We'll take turns coming later." Chaoyang said, "Let's do it the old way."

Zhao Xuehua, who was sitting in the passenger seat, smiled and said, "I understand. Lure the tiger away from the mountain."

As I said, the method is old, but it works.

As for this little girl who showed up halfway...

"Girl, are you okay?" Zhao Xuehua looked at Ye Duo, who was still breathing, with concern. After thinking for a while, she took out a half-bottle of water from her bag and handed it to her, "Would you like some water?"

Ye Duo looked at the water handed to her and couldn't believe it.

Water...clean water...

The community had been without water and electricity for a long time. The last time she drank water was two days ago. She was given two sips of the last bit of water stored in her home.

Ye Duo licked her dry lips and took the water bottle tremblingly: "Thank you...thank you!"

She didn't dare to be reserved, for fear that the bottle of water would be taken back.

Everyone in the car watched Ye Duo drink water silently. It was obvious that this girl hadn't had water for a long time.

Of course, I haven't eaten for a long time.

So Mibao took out a bag of bear biscuits from her small bag and handed it to Ye Duo after she finished drinking the water: "Sister, this is for you."

Ye Duo was stunned. She looked at Mi Bao and was a little afraid to take it.

Can a little child make the decision?

She couldn't help but look up at Zhao Xuehua in the co-pilot seat: "Auntie, can I, can I eat?"

The expressions of everyone in the car suddenly became a little strange.

"These are Mibao's cookies. She's willing to give them to you, so of course you can." Zhao Xuehua said puzzledly, "You don't need to ask me."

Ye Duo was stunned: "Oh...thank you, thank you."

She took the biscuits from Mibao and ate them in big mouthfuls, not wanting to waste even a single crumb.

Mi Bao, who was sitting next to Chaoyang, couldn't help but lean closer to Chaoyang and whispered, "Brother Chaoyang, this sister is so pitiful."

You can tell at a glance that he has been hungry for a long time.

Chaoyang glanced at Ye Duo, said nothing, and just touched Mibao's head.

After Ye Duo finished eating a bag of cookies, Chaolu asked, "Tell me, what happened?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Duo immediately sat up straight: "There is not much food in our community..."

She described the situation in the neighborhood, then talked about the cannibalism upstairs, and the lack of food in her own home.

"...If I don't run out, I will become food." Ye Duo's eyes turned red again, "I don't want to become food, so I want to take a gamble."

Hearing this, Chaolu couldn't help but pat Ye Duo's shoulder in fear: "You are quite pitiful then. I have decided to take you with me!"

Ye Duo felt a little uneasy when she heard this. She couldn't help but look at the three adults in the car, and then looked at Zhao Lu: "This... don't we need to ask for other people's opinions?"

Especially the opinions of adults.

In Ye Duo's understanding, children will of course listen to adults.

Adults are definitely better than children.

If she wasn't about to be eaten, she wouldn't have the courage to run out.

"Haha, Chaolu is our little teacher. She is the best here." Zhao Xuehua couldn't help laughing. The driver Zhu Dafu couldn't help laughing, "Yes!"

Qian Suiyou, who was standing quietly by, had no objection at all. They, the adults, were rescued by the children, and he was also waiting to take advantage of the children's relationships.

Ye Duo was immediately surprised: "Wow, you are so amazing..."

Zhaolu raised her chin slightly, a little proudly: "Oh, it's just so-so~"

So Ye Duo's stay or departure was decided.

Then everyone introduced themselves, and Ye Duo also learned about the situation of this car.

She couldn't help but feel very surprised and felt like she was listening to a foreign language.

Oh my god, Chaolu and Chaoyang are such an amazing brother and sister!
As for Mibao, she didn't hear anything great about him. After all, he was still just a five-year-old baby.

Ok……

It is naturally not convenient to tell others about the system. Chaolu and Chaoyang didn't even tell the adults.

They also unified their story about the master key, changing it to say that the key was stolen from the bald guy.

After a while, Chaoyang contacted another van using the walkie-talkie and talked about refueling.

After walking around and notifying all the communities here, the two vans headed for the gas station.

After refueling, everyone will separate.

"By the way, they are going to the southern base, which is closer. Do you want to go in the same car with them?"

Before parting, Chaolu asked Ye Duo.

Ye Duo thought for a while and shook her head: "No, I'll go with you."

After all, there were people of the same age here, and there were four adults in that car, so she was a little scared.

The car wobbled towards the Oasis Base. Since the Oasis Base was located in a central area, this meant they had to cross several cities.

It was not until they found an empty store to rest at night that Ye Duo learned from Chao Lu why they went to the Oasis Base.

"... To find a father for Mibao?" Ye Duo was stunned, not knowing what to feel in her heart. "You are really nice people. So many people are here to accompany her."

She has been living with her uncle and aunt since the third grade of elementary school, while her parents have been working away from home.

Chaolu didn't hear the hidden meaning in Ye Duo's words, but laughed: "Mibao and I are friends. I treat her like my own sister. We are all very nice people."

While Chaolu and Yeduo were talking, Chaoyang was combing Mibao's hair.

Because Mibao was so sleepy in the afternoon, he slept in a messy manner with his hair.

"Brother Chaoyang, we are going to bed soon, but my hair is still messy. Why do I still need to comb it?" Mi Bao looked puzzled.

Chaoyang was somewhat helpless: "It will take a long time, do you want to keep having such a messy hair?"

Mi Bao thought about it and agreed, so she let Chao Yang comb her hair while she started to eat a corn.

Zhao Xuehua boiled a pot of hot water. When everyone started eating instant noodles, there would be an extra boiled egg in Mibao's bowl.

I brought this from the supermarket in small town before leaving, and there aren't many left.

Seeing this scene, Ye Duo couldn't help but feel a little envious of Mi Bao.

so good……

Everyone I met was so nice.

Ye Duo lowered her head slightly and ate instant noodles. The noodles smelled delicious. Her stomach, which had been hungry for several days, finally embraced the hot food.

It was a quiet night and the car continued on the road early the next morning.

And a skeleton in the distance finally came down the mountain with difficulty.
