Chapter 1146: Chapter 721: Xiao Yu, Where Are the Jackals? [7,000 Words Double-Length Special – Monthly Ticket Request]

The construction of the Third Outer City continues.

Having not found the elusive Peeping Tom, Li Yu has been unable to relax.

But now, unable to locate the person, he repeatedly checks the footage recorded by the drones.

After more than half a month of construction on the Third Outer City, most of the foundation has been built.

Once the foundation is reinforced, construction of the walls above will be much faster.

As night falls.

Just entering the Outer City, Old Dong and his family sit in the room allocated to their family of four, unable to sleep.

This room is small, only less than 15 square meters, with two bunk beds.

In the room, there are also four washbasins, toothpaste and toothbrushes, and four bars of soap.

Old Dong’s son, Ah Zheng, sits excitedly on Old Dong’s upper bunk, saying to his sister Dong Ying, "Sis, this place is really great; we don’t have to do anything and won’t worry about food and drink."

Dong Ying glances at him, responding coldly, "It’s not that simple. After all, it’s our first day here, and they haven’t assigned anything to us yet.

Moreover, this is in the Doomsday, if they were really going to support you like this, do you genuinely feel at ease?"

Old Dong’s wife nods, saying, "That statement is right, Old Dong, you have things to do here, but the three of us still need to find something to do; let’s not just wait for them to arrange something, let’s take the initiative to ask."

Old Dong nods upon hearing this, recalling that man managing the base today, claiming his name was Li Hongda; everyone addressed him as Mr. Li, he seemed to be responsible for the core management.

It’s said he is the Second Uncle of Li Yu, the City Lord of Big Camphor Tree Base City.

Smiling, he says to his wife, "Today, when he came to register our information, upon hearing your identity, from his look, surely he’ll assign something to you later."

Kong Shuang shakes her head, reflecting, "We’re lucky to find such a place."

Upon hearing her mother reflect, Dong Ying speaks, "Mom, before the Doomsday, both you and Dad were top talents; you were a professor at Huaxia University’s chemical engineering department, that Gan Shang on Orange Continent was really blind."

Old Dong waves his hand, telling Ah Zheng and his daughter, "Times have changed, the Doomsday has passed so long ago, now we must be humble, do whatever we can, surviving is the first priority.

Ah Zheng, your personality has improved a lot compared to before, but remember one thing, there’s no free lunch in this world."

Ah Zheng scratches his head after hearing these words, saying, "I was wrong, I was just joking just now, I know it’s impossible, but I just think this place is really great."

Upon hearing that his son didn’t talk back but instead admitted his mistake, Old Dong said nothing further.

Looking out the window at the amber lights outside, a few people were walking.

Long after, he stood up and turned off the lights, saying to his family, "Rest early, tomorrow I’ll go find Mr. Li to get you something to do."

.....

After nightfall.

A shadow walks in the dark, aided by the darkness.

Suddenly, the shadow halts.

Noticing the faint light from a newly installed camera on a tree not far away.

Xu Chengcai’s expression changes slightly, not daring to move.

He lies prone, using the shrubs as cover, hiding from the camera.

Evading cameras is not difficult for him.

Soon, he avoids this camera.

Yet, as he crouches, another camera looms ahead.

Inwardly, he curses, "Damn, how is the security so tight, still several hundred meters away!"

Daring not to relax, still lying in the grass, he passes through this area of surveillance.

He strains himself, focusing his attention on the surroundings.

After a while, he tightly watches a certain location.

A zombie stands there.

Whoosh!

Push!

The zombie collapses to the ground.

Xu Chengcai immediately goes over, squats down, and pulls out the dagger.

Then, he searches in a nearby shallow pit.

Finally, he finds a few bundles,

Xu Chengcai uses a rope to tie them together and carries them on his back.

Then swiftly departs.

Returning, he evades those surveillance cameras just as before.

Only, carrying the bundles makes him less agile, slowing him down.

Half an hour later.

Already several kilometers away from the Big Camphor Tree Base.

Under a tree with a diameter of half a meter, several zombies encircle it, hoarsely snarling at the tree above.

Not a sound emanates from the tree.

Yet it attracts several zombies.

Seeing this, Xu Chengcai’s expression shifts drastically, an extremely worried look surfaces in his eyes.

"Xiao Yong," Xu Chengcai calls out softly.

On hearing his father’s voice, several leaves rustle and fall.

Soon, a youthful voice comes from the tree, trembling, "Dad, I’m here."

Hearing Xiao Yong is safe and sound, Xu Chengcai breaths a slight sigh of relief.

Then eliminates the approaching zombies one by one.

Seconds later, Xu Chengcai tells the tree, "It’s safe, come down."

Swish!

Xiao Yong climbs down from the tree. As soon as he steps on the ground, Xiao Yong leaps into his father’s arms, saying, "Dad, I listened to you, while on the tree, I didn’t make a sound."

Xu Chengcai, feeling a bit pained but also a touch of comfort.
