Chapter 53 - 53 : Fu Shinan Must Stay
Fu Shinan said lightly, “As a doctor, there’s a lot I can do. Mr Ji, let’s go.” She didn’t know why, but she was growing more and more repulsed by Cao Yong as if she was being targeted by a sinister snake.
MO Cheng said, “Sister Fu, I can help you too.” Although he didn’t know medicine, at the very least he could assist in carrying people or something. Ji Zan turned back and looked at MO Cheng, saying, “You stay here and protect
Chang’an.”
Only then did Fu Shinan remember that there was still a child in the house. She immediately nodded at MO Cheng, feeling anxious and forgetting about Chang’an. In the current situation, she didn’t feel at ease leaving Chang’an behind. Among the remaining people, there was no reliable person.
Upon hearing this, MO Cheng could only agree.
Meanwhile, Ji Zan immediately stepped on the gas pedal and drove out of the farm.
After the group left, Wu Bai whispered, “What if that woman doesn’t come back? What should we do?”
Cao Yong smiled, “She won’t! We still have two women on hand, as well as MO Cheng and that child. Although those two women are useless, they still have some value… No matter what, we must keep Fu Shinan and MO Cheng here!”
As Fu Shinan and Ji Zan drove onto the highway, she hesitated for a moment before speaking up, “Leaving Chang’an behind doesn’t seem right.”
Ji Zan glanced at her, “Do you think there’s something wrong with the people on the farm?
Fu Shinan shook her head, “I just find it very strange. Wu Bai is so young and hasn’t received professional training, yet he can bring someone back. As for Da Fei and the others, they all received professional training before and have experienced countless battles in the post-apocalyptic world. How is it possible that they all perished? None of them returned, and that’s highly unreasonable.”
Ji Zan nodded in agreement. Fu Shinan’s thoughts aligned with his own. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so anxious. “This matter is indeed very suspicious. I believe there’s a big problem with Cao Yong.”
Fu Shinan sighed and looked out the window, “Perhaps our coming here was a mistake in the first place. Otherwise, Da Fei and the others wouldn’t be facing this problem now. It was my insistence on coming here…”
“This was also my decision, it’s not your fault. Perhaps Da Fei and the others just got separated,” Ji Zan comforted, but he couldn’t help but feel anxious himself. He had been too careless, thinking that Wu Bai and the others wouldn’t come up with any tricks, but the result…
Compared to the peaceful town a few days ago, the city before their eyes no longer showed its former prosperity. Most of the buildings had collapsed, and the roads were filled with rubble.
“How could this happen?” Fu Shinan looked at the scene outside, disbelief evident in her eyes.
Ji Zan’s voice was heavy as he said, “It must have been an earthquake. It was right for us to leave.”
Fu Shinan didn’t say anything. She couldn’t determine whether their decision was right or wrong anymore. The only thing she hoped for was to find Da Fei and the others as soon as possible.
Ji Zan drove to several large supermarkets based on his memory, but they didn’t find any traces.
As night approached, Fu Shinan couldn’t help but feel anxious, “Could it be that they never even came to An Town?”
Ji Zan pondered for a moment and said, “This is the largest city nearby. The supplies wouldn’t have been depleted so quickly. If they wanted to find provisions, this would be the best choice.”
Just as the words fell. They heard a whimpering sound. and Ti Zan quickly
pulled Fu Shinan into hiding. “There are zombies!”
Due to the extensive destruction in many places, there was only a small gap behind them, forcing the two of them to stand close together. Fu Shinan could even smell the cold, hormone-filled scent emanating from Ji Zan’s body. Then, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching, indicating that the zombies had already entered.
Fu Shinan couldn’t help but feel nervous, her chest rising and falling rapidly. She really wasn’t suited for close combat. If she was discovered by the zombies, it would all depend on Ji Zan alone…
The constant pressure made Ji Zan’s breath hitch, and he quickly shifted his gaze elsewhere, although it was highly inappropriate. Nevertheless, his face turned red.
Meanwhile, the zombies outside the door were getting closer and closer. The sound of their footsteps soon reached their vicinity.
Ji Zan swiftly kicked out, sending the zombie flying, then he lunged forward and grabbed the zombie’s head, giving it a forceful twist. With a crisp crack, the zombie immediately went still.
Fu Shinan quickly emerged from the gap.
Ji Zan reached out and pulled Fu Shinan, decisively saying, “The sun is about to set, and large groups of zombies will soon be on the move. Let’s go back first.”
However, just as the two of them were about to walk away from the side entrance, Fu Shinan suddenly stopped. “Something’s not right. I smell blood, and it’s fresh!” she said, pointing westward..
