  Chapter 38 Homecoming

  "This should be enough."

  Zhao Xiaoyan seemed a little unbearable seeing Wei Dalei busy for so long.

  Chen Mu said: "That's enough, let me do the math, two packets of powder packets, one packet of sauce packets, five packets of vegetable packets..." The consumption of

  pure seasonings is actually very small. The reason why I brought two packets was because I was afraid of something happening. Unexpectedly, after all, in terms of importance, powder packets containing a large amount of edible salt are the most important.

  But relatively speaking, the consumption of vegetable bags is the largest.

  In fact, Chen Mu is not too worried about meat, but vegetables, which cannot be guaranteed in a short time.

  The existing vegetables will rot quickly, and there are only some ornamental greens within the school. Maybe some of them are edible, but the difficulty of harvesting may be far greater than killing ants and earthworms.

  These packets of vegetable packets can at least guarantee a supply of vegetarian food for nine of them for several months.

  Chen Mu opened the bags of instant noodles one by one.

  Wei Dalei was responsible for getting in and taking out the seasoning packets.

  None of these are difficult, they just take time.

  The most difficult thing is to empty a pack of instant noodles.

  With Wei Dalei's strength, it is not difficult to drag a piece of bread, but it is very troublesome to take it out of the plastic bag and ensure that the bag is not damaged.

  In the end, Wei Dalei, who was accustomed to using violent methods, still left the bag in tatters, and Chen Mu had to repair it.

  By the time I put all the eight small packets of seasoning into the instant noodle bag, it was already dark outside.

  This job that used to only take a few seconds to complete now requires three people to work together and takes most of a day to complete, not to mention that there is a strength maniac like Wei Dalei among them.

  "Are we just going to rest here for the night?"

  "No, there are so many scattered areas. There will probably be crawlers coming over. It would be terrible if you wake up the next morning and find yourself surrounded by ants."

  Chen Mu looked at what was in front of him . The ground was in a mess, which was a bit helpless.

  Like Wei Dalei, he originally planned to finish all the packing work today, rest there for the night, and head back home full of energy the next morning.

  But obviously he didn't expect this scene.

  "Then just go back?"

  "It's too dangerous to drive at night. Let's get out of the canteen first, and then find a place to camp." "

  Okay."

  "Old Wei, you are responsible for hauling this big bag of seasoning bags, and I will use the flatbed truck. Come and push."

  ​​"Can you do it, boss?" Wei Dalei looked suspicious.

  Chen Mu was full of confidence: "Of course... No, so throw away some flour."

  ...

  The sky is completely dark. The mall has made great achievements in environmental management over the years. You can already see a little starlight at night, but there has been no starlight in the past week. Emissions from cars, etc., take the air to a higher level.

  The three of them came to the top of the slope outside the canteen building.

  "Just stay here and wait until daybreak before leaving."

  "Is it safe?"

  "No problem."

  After Chen Mu finished speaking, he started to take action.

  A larger plastic cover than before slowly closed over the heads of the three of them.

  Eventually it turned into something like a tent.

  The flatbed truck was also covered, but the instant noodle bag was too big and could only be left outside. However, Chen Mu also sealed it and used the cement floor to press its four corners firmly to prevent Blow away in the wind.

  Because he had plenty of time, Chen Mu very carefully made a T-shaped groove on the ground and inserted the bottom edge of the plastic cover into it to form a very strong component.

  Wei Dalei stretched out his hand and pushed it, nodding to express his satisfaction.

  "Don't worry, unless there is a rat determined to chew the plastic, otherwise, it will be no problem for animals with average defense."

  Chen Mu was still somewhat confident before he dared to spend the night outside.

  The light transmittance of the plastic was pretty good. The three of them leaned on the flatbed truck, looked up at the hazy night sky, chatted casually for a while, and then fell asleep.

  Sleep until midnight.

  Chen Mu was suddenly awakened by a rustling sound.

  He did not wake up Wei Dalei immediately, but calmly opened a small hole in the plastic cover and looked outside.

  Under the moonlight, two figures were furtively checking something next to their bags of instant noodles.

  obviously.

  Their things were taken care of.

  Chen Mu didn't know whether these two people were from Li Hewei's group, and he hesitated for a while whether to rush out directly.

  Wei Dalei's snoring was very good at confusing the people outside, but Chen Mu also did not dare to wake him up, otherwise the snoring suddenly stopped, which would obviously tell the two people that they had discovered them.

  Just when Chen Mu was struggling with what to do, the other party suddenly stopped and gathered together.

  Although he couldn't see his face clearly, judging from his body shape and movements, he didn't seem to be one of Li Hewei's gang.

  And the leader is obviously a woman.

  The two people discussed on the spot for a moment, and then looked towards the "tent" a few times. Just when Chen Mu thought they were going to take action, the two people turned around together and left in the direction of the canteen.

  Chen Mu couldn't judge the other party's intentions for a while.

  Do you feel unsure and want to call someone?
  Or is it because of conscience that I feel embarrassed to steal other people’s things?

  Chen Mu didn't dare to follow him to find out. After all, if the other party dared to wander around in the middle of the night, he must have something to rely on.

  He didn't dare to take risks, so he hurriedly woke up Wei Dalei and Zhao Xiaoyan, and told them what he had discovered before.

  "Boss, what should we do?" Although Wei Dalei was reckless, he also knew that this kind of situation where the enemy was in darkness and we were open to the enemy was very detrimental to his side. What's more, there was Zhao Xiaoyan here. If there was a real fight, he would also take it into consideration.

  "You can only take some risks and hurry up."

  The most troublesome part of traveling at night is the lack of visibility. You are afraid that by the time danger is discovered, it will be too late to open the defensive shield.

  But compared to those humans whose enemies and enemies are unclear, Chen Mu would rather take a little risk.

  Wei Dalei immediately agreed.

  The three of them sorted themselves out.

  Chen Mu pushed the flatbed cart, and Wei Dalei dragged up the instant noodle bag.

  Return the way you came.

  Along the way, the three of them were extra careful.

  However, I just left not long ago.

  Chen Mu suddenly stopped.

  "What's wrong, boss?"

  "Nothing, I'm going to use the toilet."

  Chen Mu walked not far away and after solving the problem, the three of them continued on their way.

  …

  at the same time.

  About two meters behind the three people.

  A man and a woman were following furtively.

  "They stopped." The man lowered his voice and shouted to the two of them.

  "What did you say?" the woman asked softly.

  "Shh..." The man made a gesture of silence, then he listened for a moment, shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything, that guy went to pee." "Are you sure?" "I vaguely heard

  it

  . What's wrong with the sound of water?"

  "It's nothing. I'm afraid we'll be discovered." "

  How is it possible? Who has my hearing?"

  "It's always better to be careful."

  "They got up again."

  " Follow me."
