SRTT Chapter 67.2

Happy Vesak Day, everyone! ♥️

 

“Where is it? Can I find compressed biscuits?”

Ruan Ning shook her head: “Not here, but in the neighboring Jinbei City.”

Su Zirui was puzzled: “Why go there? Is it safer than the base?”

Ruan Ning thought for a moment and said, “I don’t know. It may be safe, or it may still be impossible to survive.”

“It’s getting late now. If we set out now, we will arrive in about two days.”

Su Zirui lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds. He then gritted his teeth and said, “Okay.”

Ruan Ning laughed: “You agreed so quickly, aren’t you afraid that I will sell you out?”

Su Zirui didn’t care at all: “Can human life still be valuable now?”

Ruan Ning thought, human flesh is always valuable.

But it’s pointless to talk about this kid who doesn’t know how old he is.

The two of them set out overnight and found a place to hide from the sun during the day.

This was Ruan Ning’s first time to travel a long distance on foot. She had to use at least one extra container, which was a loss for her.

She hopes Su Zirui can be alive.

Two days later, they finally arrived at the entrance of Jinbei City Expressway.

This time, Ruan Ning was stunned.

Although there were not as many people as those who went to Xihai City, there were also two or three thousand people here. Everyone was not in a good condition.

Ruan Ning and Su Zirui looked at each other and walked into the crowd.

An aunt was sighing: “What should I do? Why can’t I go back? If I had known, I wouldn’t have run away.”

The man beside her couldn’t even raise his head.

The aunt said, “It’s all your fault! You said there was water at the beach, but you didn’t think about how chaotic the world is outside. The compressed biscuits we brought were even snatched away by someone. What are we going to do in the future?”

As she spoke, the aunt wiped her tears, then remembered that she couldn’t cry, and quickly stopped crying.

If her tears weren’t so salty and so little, she would have definitely drunk them back.

Ruan Ning walked over and asked, “Auntie, what’s going on here? I just came out a few days ago, wasn’t everything fine then?”

The aunt asked: “Were there many people at that time?”

Ruan Ning recalled: “There are still some people, right?”

The auntie said excitedly: “It was just yesterday. Yesterday, all the roads were suddenly blocked. No one was allowed to enter, only to leave. Now, how many people can come out? They all want to go in.”

Ruan Ning hesitated and asked, “Are you not allowed to enter under any conditions?”

Su Zirui also asked curiously: “Do we need to hand in compressed biscuits? How many catties can we get in? Is 10 catties enough?”

The auntie looked at Su Zirui unhappily and said, “Do you think this is an outside base? There are troops inside. There is only one condition for entering, and that is someone like you.”

Su Zirui was puzzled: “Someone like me?”

The aunt said, “You are under 18 years old, right? Only a child like you can enter, and no one else can.”

Su Zirui was shocked: “There are still places like this. The base is not willing to accept children.”

The aunt raised her hand and pointed to the highway toll booth: “Look at what’s written on that banner?”

Ruan Ning looked over and saw that the banner was written on red paper with big black characters: [Leave opportunities for the future].

The aunt said: “They only accept children under 18 now. Anyway, as long as you look under 18 years old, you can contact the rescue team over there.”

“Little boy, I see you are still young, go and sign up quickly.”

“Otherwise, if it is full, you will not be able to survive like us.”

Su Zirui looked excited. He seemed to feel the hope of his survival, but he looked at Ruan Ning again and immediately calmed down.
