Rebirth: The Doomsday Solitary Favorite Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Going to the Secret Warehouse

In early November, two months had passed since the meteorite incident, and one and a half months had passed since Lu Changyuan and his friends moved into the villa. In this short period of time, mutant beasts, alien species, bases, and superpowers had appeared. Now, they left the villa area and headed for Han Yi's private warehouse.

When I passed the crossroads outside the city, there was no one there, only some luggage piled on the ground. The empty city looked particularly desolate.

Without any intention of stopping, Han Yi and others' van quickly drove onto the highway.

There was no traffic jam on the highway, only occasionally a few cars were parked crookedly on both sides, obviously forced away by the army. Their car drove on the road for a long time, occasionally encountering a few passing vehicles, but no one stopped, just went their own way in silence, keeping a certain distance from each other, as if they were on guard against something.

Han Jiaojiao guessed that these vehicles were heading to a certain base, which was not the same direction as them.

They only stopped twice to drink water, eat, relieve themselves, and take turns driving. The rest time was no more than ten minutes. Lu Changyuan, Yan Xiao, Xiao Jian, and Bai Kairui took turns driving. Han Yi was responsible for using his supernatural powers to determine whether the road was safe. Han Jiaojiao was the most relaxed one among them.

The journey was uneventful. As the sun was about to set, the van drove into the nearest service area and stopped to rest.

Everyone got off the bus in the service area. Because Han Yi had confirmed that there were no alien or mutant beasts here, and it was not yet completely dark, everyone moved around freely after getting off the bus, checking the environment.

This place had obviously been ransacked. The restaurant and supermarket on the first floor were empty, with tables, chairs and shelves toppled over. However, the doors and windows were in good condition and did not affect their use. Han Yi and Han Jiaojiao went to the second floor. The second floor of the service area was a motel that provided accommodation. There were many single rooms, but they were all empty. There were no bedding or pillows, and no electric kettles. In some rooms, even the beds and tables and chairs had been emptied. Han Jiaojiao was so embarrassed by the thorough ransacking that she felt that no one else could have such a big advantage except the army at the base.

Han Yi picked three adjacent rooms, then threw out a few beddings from the space, and Han Jiaojiao made the beds one by one.

After a while, other people came up one after another. Seeing the beds were made, they were not too polite and sat or lay down to rest. After staying in the car for more than nine hours today, everyone was a little tired.

Han Yi took out some food from the space. It was the food that Han Jiaojiao and Han Yi had packed when they had eaten in the restaurant before. There were both meat and vegetables, but they were cold. Han Jiaojiao volunteered to take it to the kitchen behind the restaurant to heat it up, but Han Yi disagreed and left with a smile.

As night falls, the whole earth is slowly shrouded in darkness, and the dim and sparse starlight appears and disappears in the night sky.

After nightfall, Han Jiaojiao insisted that she would be the only one to keep watch tonight, and she angrily sent everyone else to bed.

Naturally, no one agreed.

She carefully analyzed the situation with them one by one: Lu Changyuan and Xiao Jian were driving today, they must be too tired to keep watch. Tomorrow Yan Xiao and Bai Kairui would drive, and of course they couldn't be disturbed for rest. Han Yi used his supernatural powers for a long time, so he was even less suitable for keeping watch. After all, she was the most suitable person.

But, they are a group of men, they can't let a little girl keep watch all the time, right?

Han Jiaojiao glared and said confidently: "Look how happy you are, it's not like I'm guarding you every day, it's only three days and two nights on the road, I'll only guard you for two nights.

When everyone heard this, it seemed to make sense, so they turned their eyes to Han Yi. In the end, he was the one who made the decision.

Han Yi was naturally unwilling, but he couldn't ignore what Han Jiaojiao said. There would be many unknown dangers along the way, and it was necessary to ensure that everyone got enough rest. Rest meant physical condition, and physical condition often determined life and death when danger came. He couldn't gamble with life and death.

Han Jiaojiao shook his arm, acting coquettishly and flatteringly: "At most, I will wake you up if anything happens."

Han Yi was helpless, he pinched her little face and said with a smile: "Little housekeeper."

That's consent!

Han Jiaojiao was very happy. She didn't want to be a burden to the team, even if they really cared for her, even if they didn't mind at all, but she would mind. She didn't want to take others' kindness for granted. This was the end of the world, and no one owed anyone anything. They were kind to her because of their brother's kindness, and she had to return the favor and not use up this kindness.

Han Jiaojiao carried a brand new dagger and a P64 pistol with her, then picked up a sniper rifle from the station wagon and returned to the second floor. She found a window with a good view and began to wait patiently for the long night to pass.

Although Han Yi has confirmed that this area is safe, no one can say for sure whether those alien species outside the area covered by Han Yi's mental power will wander here in search of food.

Visibility at night was very low. Han Jiaojiao stared at the window for a while, then went downstairs to patrol. When she was tired, she went back to the second floor window to sit and rest. If she felt sleepy, she would wash her face with cold water or go downstairs for a walk. During this time, she saw several mutant beasts, which might be mice or weasels. They were not big. Han Jiaojiao saw that they had no intention of attacking, so she just watched quietly and waited for them to leave.

Around four o'clock in the morning, several dark shadows appeared on the road in front of the service area. Han Jiaojiao's heart was lifted up, and she put the sniper rifle gently on the windowsill with a tense face, looking at the three aliens running in the distance through the scope.

They ran very fast, on all fours, their long and strong hind legs jumping forward from time to time, their spines protruding high, and their slender waists bent like a bow. When they passed the service area, they slowed down a little, and one of them even stopped, as if smelling something in the air.

Han Jiaojiao's palms were a little wet. She decided to shoot once the aliens came over here, and she must not let them get close to here. Because the aliens at night are almost completely different from the aliens during the day! Its speed and reaction are extremely fast, and its dynamic vision at night is very strong, which is very similar to frogs, snakes and other animals. It can capture the image of moving objects very quickly and react instantly. So if it can be avoided, she never wants to choose to fight them at close range.

Maybe she was lucky. These aliens let out a low wheeze from their throats. They only stopped for a short while before dashing straight into the darkness ahead, as if there was something delicious waiting for them there...

Han Jiaojiao had been staring at the direction they left for a long time. When she didn't see them return, she relaxed. She was more relieved that they hadn't been discovered by the aliens. She wasn't afraid of the aliens, but if she could avoid them, it would be the best. That way, her brother and the others could sleep well tonight.

The darkness slowly faded away, and a ray of light appeared on the horizon. The sun was about to come out. Han Jiaojiao's mood also brightened because of the light on the horizon. Compared with the ice age six months later, the current heat couldn't be better, because the sunshine time was much longer than the ice age. Perhaps this was just a chance for humans to breathe, so that they could survive the upcoming cruel ice age.
