280 The Closer We Are to the End, the Warier You Have to Be

Du Yue turned her head to look at the front windshield. She could see the fleet of cars in front of them slowly driving forward. She had no idea how many cars were there, but they were moving very slowly. They were so slow that Du Yue felt that she would not be left behind even if she got out of the car and walked. If someone wanted to get out of the car to find a place to go to the toilet, they did not even need to stop the car. She could just jump out of the car directly. At this speed, it would not hurt anyone. The people who needed to go to the toilet did not look for any cover. It was probably because they felt that the fog was everywhere, so no one could see them.

Du Yue took off her glasses. She could not bear to watch such an eye-stinging scene. Fortunately, the speed of the convoy was not always so slow. At about two in the afternoon, someone came back on a motorcycle. There was also a big megaphone on the man's motorcycle. He used it to inform informing everyone that the convoy was going to speed up immediately. The speed would be very fast for the rest of the journey, and the survivors were not to jump off the vehicles.

After the man on the motorcycle roared at the convoy for a while, the cars in front obviously sped up. He Xing straightened his back slightly and perked up. I guess we don't have to take our time anymore. This portion of the journey was truly difficult! If they had continued to travel at this turtle speed, who knew when they would reach Jingluo?

From Haidao City to Jingluo, it would only have taken five hours by the highway if it were before the apocalypse. However, they were now on the highway, and they would often run into obstacles on the road. The convoy was long and slow. Du Yue estimated that at this rate, it would be considered fast if they could reach Jingluo in ten days.

In the end, it turned out that Du Yue's estimation was correct. On the 11th day, they were still on the road. They were about two days away from Jingluo. This was the longest journey Du Yue had ever taken since the apocalypse. If it were just her and He Xing, it would not be so boring. However, now that they were with so many people, they were destined to not be able to enjoy the journey.

Not only did they need to be on guard against the survivors, but they also had to pay attention to their every move, afraid that outsiders would notice something strange. Especially during this period, the second base had been giving out steamed buns and pancakes to the survivors. These things could only ensure that they would not starve to death on the way. However, it was still far from filling. Not to mention, the survivors still wanted to eat meat. The survivors would cause a ruckus at every turn and stir up trouble from time to time. Du Yue was already used to this.

Although the base would step up to suppress those troublemakers every time and their dissatisfaction would gradually be suppressed, the next time they exploded, it would be even more violent than the previous time.

Fortunately, Yu Xinya had almost fully recovered. The first thing she did after she was able to walk was to come to Du Yue to thank her. Just by looking at Yu Xinya's pale face, Du Yue knew that her body was still very weak and needed a long time to recuperate. If she wanted to recover completely, it was not something that could be solved by taking medicine. She still had to eat some nutritious things to make up for the deficit in her body. However, the survivors in the second base were causing trouble every now and then, so they did not dare to cook. They could only eat dry food.

They all knew that the bird that took the lead would be shot. If they started cooking at this time, they would become the target of public criticism and would be robbed by the survivors. When they learned that they would arrive in Jingluo in two days, Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya both heaved a sigh of relief.

As the leaders and pillars of the base, they had not had a good night's sleep or a full meal in the past ten days. They were afraid that something might happen to the people in the base. Now that they were finally reaching the place, the heavy stone in their hearts could finally be put down. Seeing that they had relaxed, He Xing still reminded them, The closer we are to the end, the warier we have to be. If someone really wants to cause trouble, they'll most likely choose this time.

Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng both nodded seriously. We've thought about that too. Don't worry, we won't let our guard down.

Wan Dapeng pursed his dry lips. I wonder if we'll be able to have a good meal and sleep after we reach the third base.

No one knew the answer to this question. It was the first time for all of them to come to the third base. The next night, the convoy stopped to rest, and dinner time began to be distributed as usual. Du Yue did not wear her glasses most of the time because she had seen too many unpleasant scenes these days. However, Du Yue put on her glasses to be on the safe side since the situation was special. She was going to check her surroundings to see if there was anything unusual going on.
