Chapter 171: 171: Five-person Squad (Extra early update for Xi-)

Something had happened in Hangzhou before Yangzhou, and the people there had evacuated sooner. There probably wasn’t much left in the supermarket.

The residential complex, on the other hand, was worth checking out. Some residents who had left hastily probably left behind some food reserves.

Shen MO wanted to find some vegetables and fruits to improve his meals.

First, he climbed into a courtyard lush with plants. By a stroke of luck, he found some fresh green cucumbers hanging by the corner of the wall, and in another yard, he found potted cherry tomatoes.

After checking a few more courtyards, some had herbs like green onions and garlic while others only had normal plants.

It was still good enough.

After all, it wasn’t common to find lower-level resident complexes with courtyards these days.

Before he realized, he had wandered from the south gate of the residential area to the north gate.

Guessing he had been out for a while and preparing to return, the road outside the residential area suddenly brightened as if a vehicle’s headlights in the distance had lit it up.

Shen MO raised his eyebrows, slung his backpack onto his back, grabbed a nearby tree trunk, and climbed up in just a few steps to observe from the dense tree canopy.

A vehicle was indeed approaching.

As the distance decreased, he heard the sound of tires crunching on the road. For some reason, the driver was moving very slowly.

As it got closer, he heard heated arguing—male and female voices, not quite an argument but definitely not amicable.

This robust Jeep came into view after a moment.

The vehicle had clearly been modified; its wheels and lights were unique. The roof was open, revealing five people inside.

Three men and two women.

Shen MO subconsciously furrowed his eyebrows not only because he recalled what Tu Dan had previously mentioned about a group of people, but also because these people were armed.

These days, those who could get their hands on weapons were either soldiers or bandits.

Shen MO held his breath and made himself unnoticeable in the tree to avoid being discovered.

The Jeep slowly drove into the residential area.

The driver was a portly middle-aged man—more accurately, strong, with a hefty torso and a rough face covered in stubble!

By contrast, the man in the passenger’s seat was refined and elegant, with a peaceful and scholarly demeanour.

Further back, there was a woman in a red dress seated on the left. She wore a look of impatience on her face.

On the right was a bespectacled young man, holding an injured young woman, complaining bitterly:

“Su Man, that’s enough! Zhu Shu didn’t do it on purpose. Was it necessary to speak so harshly?!”

“Annoyed by my words?” The woman in red sneered, “If not for you, I would have used my fists by now!”

“Su Man, you…”

“Don’t blame her…” The man in his arms weakly interjected, “It’s my fault… I brought this upon everyone… and wasted a tool.”

The man held her tenderly, “That’s enough, please rest. Your wounds will heal soon, don’t worry…”

The woman in red scoffed sarcastically: “Oh, playing the delicate damsel, are

“Su Man! I’m warning you…”

“Enough.” The man in the front passenger seat cut them off.

Both fell silent, but they couldn’t hide the hostility on their faces.

The man spoke, “Everyone, calm down. We’ve just come out of the maze. We all need to rest. Let’s find a place to stay first. Tomorrow, depending on Zhu Shu’s recovery, we’ll decide whether to set off again.”

The Jeep turned a corner and moved out of Shen MO’s line of sight.

Shen MO remained in the tree for a while longer, ensuring he couldn’t hear any noises before leaping down and leaving the residential complex.

As he prepared to go, he glanced at the Jeep’s tire tracks, following the traces with his gaze to the distant mist.

“Just came out of the maze, huh…” He mumbled thoughtfully..
