Main Character:

Shen Yao

"Walk twice?"

Shen Chengyi couldn't understand that this kind of behavior where paper can't wrap fire would eventually be exposed.

"The officials want to temporarily suppress the matter. Of the teams that went out before, besides us, none have returned," Wei Ran said in a low voice and also sighed, thinking they were lucky ones, but never expected their luck to turn out like this.

How to put it?

Not to mention the temporary camps with more serious problems, even other small teams executing missions just like them actually didn't return.

They themselves had difficult missions, first their transport was destroyed and they were trapped in place, then they had to stay because of the sharp temperature drop, but others definitely shouldn't be like that.

After hearing Wei Ran's words, Shen Chengyi expressed that although she had considered this kind of speculation, when it actually happened, she still felt a sense of rupture, "What do the officials think?"

Only they returned, this doesn't meet the bottom line set by the officials themselves, there are too few people.

You have to know that among the several teams that went out, the ability users inside were all very strong, they were the backbone force of the officials, and also the core martial force for migration.

"I don't know, let's cooperate with the officials first to deal with the trouble at hand," Wei Ran said to Shen Chengyi, then turned around to find Liu Mingfeng to give instructions.

After all, the big guys wear similar clothes, wrapped from head to toe in protective suits, being close might be easily recognized by family members, but being a bit farther away, it's really hard to determine.

On the other side, the crowd still standing behind the roadblock was unwilling to disperse, they urgently wanted to know if among these returned people there were their own relatives.

Whether out of selfish consideration or something else, they were able to get such preferential treatment now thanks to the relatives of those who went into the small teams; dead people don't create value, only by living can they let their families live better.

Similar to Shen Yao's place, evolution potions are delivered to the door every few days without fail, this is Shen Chengyi's treatment; if Shen Chengyi isn't there, then the supply of evolution potions would slowly be cut off, they could only buy them by relying on special points or other means.

"We want to see the leader, we want to know who the returned people are."

"That's right, being anxious and afraid for a month, eating poorly and sleeping poorly, they are our relatives."

"Move the roadblock away, not letting us meet, are they seriously injured?"

"……"

One guess after another burst out from the mouths of the crowd, some were okay, some were said very sharply; at least in Shen Yao's opinion, if the officials couldn't temporarily suppress and soothe this unease, their internal conflict would break out first.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning watched the gradually out-of-control crowd begin to gather around Shen Yao; the two of them weren't afraid of these people suddenly going crazy, but they felt some things should still try not to be too extreme, besides, there were really too many ordinary people here; even if they really conflicted with the officials, there was no need for the officials to use force to suppress, a few ability users could press down the vast majority of people.

"Mom"

"Careful"

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning protected Shen Yao behind them, both looking around with vigilant expressions.

At this time, the officials in front suddenly shouted again for the crowd to retreat, but this retreat wasn't to let them leave, but to let them make room; the leaders decided to let the returned small team show themselves, just because the team members needed examination, the time to go home was uncertain.

This could be considered a compromise made by the officials, and it also well soothed the crowd; although it couldn't make everyone satisfied, but speaking again, they also didn't really want to take people back home, surely the officials were more confident in treating them.

The crowd in front began to retreat, leaving enough space according to the officials' requirements.

Shen Yao and the three were originally in the center position of the team, with people in front and behind; watching the crowd begin to move slowly, they also had to follow and move.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning took this opportunity to move forward, going against the crowd, with the purpose of wanting to see if Shen Chengyi was in the small team that showed themselves (although there was a high probability there would be).

"How is it?"

Shen Chengning lowered her voice, a pair of eyes scanning the surroundings sharply.

"Didn't see her," Shen Chengyi shook her head, speaking of the few tents set up in front, leaving only an empty space in the middle, "She should be seriously injured."

Shen Yao raised her hand to support Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning, the three retreating at a uniform angle, while also avoiding some crowds who walked unsteadily due to nervousness or something.

"Alright, just stay here," Shen Yao said, raising her head to look at the dense crowd in front, thinking in her heart that she didn't know if the officials could handle it.

The facts proved that the officials still had some strength; it was just that Shen Chengyi and them were quite troublesome, but fortunately there were treatment equipment inside the tents; these good things produced by the laboratories gave them great confidence; whether it was external injuries or internal injuries, being able to survive was the biggest gain.

The quieted crowd began to stir, surely it had something to do with what was in front.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning's emotions were stirred up; they wanted to squeeze over to look, but the result was that the originally loose crowd became tight, and the gaps in the middle were not enough for them to shuttle back and forth at all.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning: ……

The two looked at each other helplessly; they could only shrink by Shen Yao's side, because they also had to guard against the people behind constantly squeezing their empty space.

"Aiya, that one, is it my son Pillar?"

"Nonsense, it's clearly my son Jianguo; Pillar is taller, maybe he's in the back."

"Are your eyes blurred? Pillar is my own son, how could I mistake him? Even if he turned to ashes, I'd recognize him."

"……"

Words similar to this sounded from around; Shen Chengyu listened patiently for a while, then understood that the officials' arranged appearance was the tightly wrapped small team coming out one by one; some could speak, some couldn't, and some were carried out on stretchers; if it weren't for the waving arms proving it, they might all be suspected of being dead or alive.

"They look seriously injured; it's reasonable that the officials don't let them go back," this kind of problem could only be solved by the laboratory; after the end of days, human bodies also mutated, with many big and small problems; the hospital inside the shelter could only solve small headaches and fevers; really missing arms or broken legs all had to rely on the laboratory's inventions.

'Host, the officials here are really cunning,' clearly the same person, walked out once, carried out once, hard doubling the number of people.

'Usually besides paying attention to Chengyi, you pay attention to the officials' movements.'

'The small teams that went out didn't return; indirectly affecting the migration arrangements after the holiday; if the officials don't arrange it, they themselves won't be able to hold on first.'

Fortunately, there was a big purge inside the officials before, solving some forces with wolfish ambitions; otherwise, the current chaos would be the beginning of the shelter splitting.

System: ……

Although but, the host doesn't need to speak the plain truth; it still quite admired the officials' flexible thinking.

The movement around had a rising and falling period; that is, first low to high then to low.

When the sound of discussion disappeared, Shen Yao and the three understood that the officials had already taken the small team away; and these people who relied on their own striving, finally saw a face, should also disperse and return to their residences.

Shen Chengyu pouted, dissatisfied with the officials' approach; she also vaguely saw the eldest sister's figure, just that she was covered tightly from head to toe, making it hard for people to definitively say it was her.

"Go back and wait for news; although the officials temporarily don't let them return home, the living people will definitely contact home through other means."

The simplest and most direct was communication equipment; not these provided by the officials, but satellite phones they secretly hid through space underneath.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning's eyes lit up, clearly having thought of this possibility too; the two of them seemed to have truly let out a breath of relief — Big Sister would definitely give them a Reassurance Pill.

Sure enough, when they returned home and rested until evening, the Satellite Phone finally had a message come through.

A very simple sentence — "Safe, return home as soon as possible" — and Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning excitedly hugged each other, ah ah ah, Big Sister is in the team returning.

"Lower your voices," the room's soundproofing measures existed, but might not work.

Shen Yao let out a light breath, raised her hand to gesture at the positions upstairs and downstairs, then brought over the rice and dishes that had already cooled, "Eat your fill first."

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning had been waiting for news since returning, unwilling to even eat Dinner; Shen Yao could only let them be. Now that Shen Chengyi had given a definite reply, Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning could also count as having peace of mind.

Although the rice and dishes had cooled and the Taste was somewhat different, Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning didn't care about that at all, Happily stuffing the food into their bellies; the two even took out some Jerky that had been roasted long ago from their space and chewed on it.

Crunch crunch

Jerky is just tastier than rice and dishes, has enough Energy and chewiness; it's made from the Meat of mutated Creatures Outside. Their space still has unprocessed Corpses, and Occasionally they still eat a Fresh meal to satisfy their cravings.

…………

Shen Chengyi stayed at the rest area provided by the Official side for seven days before returning home.

It was also fortunate that Shen Chengyi made time every day to use the Satellite Phone to contact Shen Yao and the other two; otherwise their Mood would certainly have been even more anxious and worried.

"Big Sister"

"Big Sister"

Upon receiving the news, Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning did not go to the Ability User Center for training; seeing Shen Chengyi enter, they rushed over and each hugged an arm, refusing to let go.

"Alright, I'm fine," not only fine, but she also Gained a lot of things, and her Identity changed from a Civilian-recruited Ability User to an Official Internal Ability User.

Without the Protective Suit's concealment, Shen Chengyi's appearance was once again Exposed before their eyes.

Unlike her calmness when returning, when Shen Chengyi took out those Good Things she had Secretly hidden away from her space, Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning stared with mouths wide open in shock — Big Sister, this trip out really yielded an Abundant Harvest!

"Although there are many Dangers Outside, they can't do anything to me," Shen Chengyi lightly gave herself face, and Simultaneously she handed over all the Evolution Potions rewarded by the Official side to Shen Yao who needed them, "Find an opportunity, Mom, you can reveal your Ability."

Shen Yao Raised an Eyebrow, "An Ability User with a Mental Ability has appeared inside the Official side too?"

Shen Chengyi nodded and shook her head, "It's a Spatial Ability, a little girl not yet fifteen years old," discovered and immediately Protected by the Official side; heard her Spatial Area has several hundred square meters, the Official side is thinking of ways to raise her Ability Level to prepare for the Canned Food Factory Holiday Migration.

Migrating the Shelter, besides so many people needing placement, there's also Hai Liang's Supplies that need Preservation.

Originally the Official side was worried sick, but then misfortune turned to fortune — a Spatial Ability User appeared inside the Shelter; although just a little girl, such a large Space still made the Official side very tempted.

Now the Laboratory is going all out researching things that can push Spatial Ability advancement; if Shen Yao reveals her Mental Ability now, the Official side's attention to it might not be Too Much.

The fact that Shen Yao is an Ability User cannot be Concealed, because Ability Users and Ordinary People have different treatment.

During these seven days staying with the Official side, Shen Chengyi wasn't without information; just like she knew the trip to the new Shelter would implement the latest standards, where Ability Users can obtain Permissions greater than Ordinary People — Concealment would only make Shen Yao live in fear and trepidation.

Shen Yao nodded, "Just right, in a couple days, I'll drink some more Evolution Potions, then go to the Ability User Center for Registration."

"Mental Ability capabilities are strange and varied, Mom, you can hold back appropriately," no need to expose everything, to Guard Against certain people developing other ideas upon seeing prey.

Shen Yao Waved her Hand, "Rest assured, I'm decades older than you all after all," the Guard she should have she won't lose.

Finished with Shen Yao's matter, Shen Chengyi turned her head and stared at Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning.

Hm?

"Since I went out, it's been almost One Month; how is your current Ability situation?" Although Outside is unsafe and the Team had casualties, through this kind of high-intensity wilderness training and use, Ability Users more or less all have progress.

Shen Chengyi planned in her heart to wait until the Weather Warms, then take Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning out; only by experiencing Wind and Rain can one become strong — hiding inside the Shelter's Internal training is completely just a flower rack.

Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning hurriedly demonstrated their Capabilities to Shen Chengyi, expressing that they had studied diligently without pause this period, with absolutely no rest time; right now their Abilities have not only progressed by leaps and bounds, they've also utilized Crystal Cores, rather than relying on Evolution Potions for gentle nurturing.

Shen Chengyi nodded, "Not bad, have some semblance; tomorrow get up early and follow me to the Ability User Center."

Only actual field testing can tell how much progress; Shen Chengyi moved her Wrist, and taking advantage of the many people at home, processed a few of the Wild Chicken Corpses stored in her space.

This day's rice and dishes were naturally Chicken Meat; whether steamed, boiled, stewed, or stir-fried, as long as the Taste was good, it was all wiped out by them.

The Room was filled with the Fragrant smell of Chicken Meat; although the Windows had long been sealed because of the Weather, this smell still couldn't be stopped from drifting Outside.

Other People living on the same Floor touched their flat bellies and could only grit their teeth and eat well; no choice, their homes have children and Elderly, they can't just watch others eat fragrant and spicy food while they eat chaff and vegetables.

Second day early morning

Shen Chengyi, refreshed after a sleep, Got Up; she first woke Shen Chengyu and Shen Chengning, then went to the Kitchen to help Shen Yao.

Compared To life Outside, staying in the Shelter is more comfortable; "The Official side suffered heavy losses this time, they'll probably still send people out to search."

Shen Chengyi isn't a person who speaks without basis; saying this can only prove she'll most likely have to go out again.

"Confident?" Shen Yao didn't stop her.

Shen Chengyi's face was calm, "Just finding people," it doesn't affect her at all.
