Chapter 1046: Looting Supplies

Xiao Han is now truly bound to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen sits in the driver's seat, while Xiao Han sits in the passenger seat.

Looking at the electronic map on the driver's seat, they need to pass through three cities—A, B, and D—to reach City F, and currently, they have only unlocked City A.

Moreover, even if they drove day and night toward City F, it would still take more than half a month.

Ning Chen told the other three people the news about heading to City F; since Ning Chen makes the decisions, Lin Yi and the others would not oppose him at all.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Ning Chen started the car, set it to autonomous driving, and headed for City B.

Halfway there, Lin Yi "deng deng" came to Ning Chen's side and looked at him seriously.

Rarely seeing Lin Yi so serious, Ning Chen shifted his gaze from the road and looked at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi extended his hand, held up five fingers, and said: "Ning Chen, we have five people in total now; since it takes half a month to reach that City F, our current food is definitely not enough, so we must go buy some ingredients."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Ning Chen thought about the things they had bought before; indeed, they were not enough, and those supplies would be finished in about three or four days.

Besides, the water is not enough either; it doesn't matter if there's no food, but there must be water.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen searched the map for a large supermarket nearby.

Near their route, there was a very large supermarket, so Ning Chen cut off the autonomous driving and manually drove toward that supermarket.

The car stopped at the supermarket entrance; the entire area outside the supermarket was empty, with not a single person or zombie.

Ning Chen and Xiao Han walked to the door, planning to get out and shop.

But Lin Yi hugged Ning Chen tightly: "Ning Chen, I want to go too; if only the two of you go, who knows when you'll gather enough supplies."

Hearing the voice, Facing Huo Jinglin and Gu Yanqi also came out, and Lin Yi briefly told the two what they were going to do.

Facing Huo Jinglin glanced outside, then said: "I'm going too; everyone can go quickly and return quickly."

Ning Chen did not refuse; after all, according to his abilities, he should be able to protect the two of them.

However, Ning Chen looked at Gu Yanqi, his meaning clear: he did not want Gu Yanqi to go along.

Lin Yi, who was holding Ning Chen's arm, also noticed the situation; he turned his head and looked at Gu Yanqi, saying: "Young Lady Gu Yanqi, you stay in the car to guard the door, to prevent others from coming in, and besides, it's too dangerous outside."

Facing Huo Jinglin, standing nearby, nodded in agreement.

Even Xiao Han spoke up to remind: "Young Lady, you should stay in the car; it's safer."

Seeing that no one wanted her to get out, Gu Yanqi had no choice but to stay in the car to guard the door.

However, this is a new world, and Gu Yanqi is very curious about it; if the situation were not so dire, she would really want to go explore properly.

Sensing Gu Yanqi's low spirits, Ning Chen pressed his lips together and asked softly: "What do you want?"

Gu Yanqi was stunned: "Ah?"

"What do you want? I'll bring it for you."

Now, Gu Yanqi understood Ning Chen's meaning; her cheeks turned slightly red, and she said softly: "I, I want some sanitary pads, and pajamas and such."

Hearing Gu Yanqi's words, Ning Chen nodded, then opened the door and stepped out first.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi had turned to stone on the spot; he never expected that Ning Chen would proactively ask Gu Yanqi what she wanted.

Although they already knew Gu Yanqi was Shiya, after all, she has no memories, and Ning Chen's behavior before had been quite normal.

Facing Huo Jinglin patted Lin Yi's shoulder to bring him back to his senses, then followed behind.

To prevent any dangers in the mall, they advanced with Ning Chen leading and Xiao Han bringing up the rear.

Each of the four people held a shopping cart in one hand.

The group entered the food section first.

The power had not been cut off here yet, so everything in the refrigerators was well preserved.

Lin Yi ran to the refrigerator, took out all the frozen meat, and put it into the shopping cart.

Meanwhile, Facing Huo Jinglin went to get some vegetables that were still good.

Xiao Han went to the seasoning section nearby, taking the needed seasonings and several bags of salt.

Ning Chen did not go to grab things; he walked around the area, found no trace of infected, then went to the beverage section to take a lot of water and drinks.

After gathering the items, the four people assembled together; the shopping carts here were very large, and even now, not a single cart was full.

To speed things up, Ning Chen divided the four into two groups: one group was Ning Chen and Lin Yi, and the other was Xiao Han and Facing Huo Jinglin.

The mall had two more floors above; Ning Chen and Lin Yi were responsible for looting the third floor, while Xiao Han and Facing Huo Jinglin were responsible for the second floor.

"In short, safety first; Xiao Han, I leave him to you."

The two groups separated; Ning Chen and Lin Yi arrived at the third floor, which was the living area and clothing section.

Lin Yi looked at the various clothes in front of him, and his eyes lit up.

Before Ning Chen could speak, Lin Yi rushed in quickly and started filling up with all kinds of clothes.

Ning Chen scanned the surroundings, saw nothing unusual, then went to the women's clothing section to get women's clothes.

This was naturally for Gu Yanqi.

For convenience, Ning Chen took only shirts and pants.

After finishing looting, Lin Yi came to Ning Chen's side; seeing the clothes he had taken, he said disdainfully: "I say, you should at least get some skirts for the young lady."

Saying this, Lin Yi went to pick out skirts.

Seeing this, Ning Chen left the cart where it was, went to the living area, and found the things Gu Yanqi needed.

And when Ning Chen looked at the wall full of various sanitary pads, he fell into deep thought.

He had bought things for Shiya before, but the products in this world were obviously different from those in their world.

There was no choice; Ning Chen could only take a bit of each kind and put them all into the cart.

The cart was quickly filled; Ning Chen pulled over an empty cart and continued loading it, not forgetting to put in a lot of paper.

After finishing, Ning Chen pushed two carts, inside of which were items that did not fit his persona.

The two pushed the carts to the second floor but saw no sign of Xiao Han and Facing Huo Jinglin, indicating that the two had not finished yet.

The surrounding shelves were not low, making it impossible to see exactly where the two of them were.

Lin Yi shouted into the interior: "Hey, where are you!"

The voice went out, yet no one responded; Did Ning Chen sensed something was amiss.

Although this place was vast, there were only the four of them; by rights, Lin Yi's shout should have echoed throughout the entire second floor.
