Chapter 1201

Gu Yanqi also noticed Ning Chen's entire body was cold; she quickly tugged the person beside her and said, "Brother Ning, I'm fine, don't worry. The Elder is right too; I really can't sleep right now."

Ning Chen touched Gu Yanqi's head with some heartache; how could he not worry? These past two days she definitely hadn't slept well, and now that she was finally about to rest, it was interrupted again.

But the other party was indeed an elder, and Ning Chen quite liked this Elder too; up to now, he could only press his lips together to express his dissatisfaction.

This time going out to execute a mission, although the Elder didn't plan to go out, he let Tianze follow them, after all, the few of them might go out and not know how to find the way back.

Tianze also changed into the same work uniform; his clothes fit him very well on his body. Compared to Ning Chen and the others, who looked thin when dressed and muscular when undressed, Tianze's looked more like modified clothes, as if the clothes had been recut and resewn.

Lin Yi was someone who couldn't hold things in; he immediately stepped forward and asked Tianze about the clothes.

The answer Lin Yi received was quite a pleasant surprise.

These clothes were indeed recut and resewn; here, doing this to clothes was completely acceptable.

Lin Yi had already decided that once they returned from outside, he would definitely thoroughly remodel this set of clothes from head to toe; otherwise, they looked really too rustic.

Having a goal, Lin Yi smiled until his eyes squinted shut.

But there was still one problem now; what should he do if he couldn't sew?!

Lin Yi considered he had already asked many questions, so he didn't ask Tianze how his clothes were stitched anymore; watching Tianze walk away, Lin Yi had a feeling of wanting to cry but having no tears.

"Um, Sister Yanqi, do you know how to sew?"

Lin Yi dawdled over to Gu Yanqi's side and said somewhat embarrassedly.

Although not knowing what had happened, Gu Yanqi honestly nodded her head.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up, but before the words could leave his mouth, Lin Yi felt a death glare.

He stiffly turned his head and saw Brother Ning staring at him fiercely.

Lin Yi wanted to cry, but couldn't cry.

Wuwuwu, Brother Ning, how are you everywhere! Lin Yi, holding back tears, stiffly looked at Gu Yanqi and showed a bitter smile.

"N-no, it's fine."

Gu Yanqi: "……?"

Fortunately, the Elder came over and broke the awkwardness here.

They needed to prepare a bit before setting off.

This time, the Elder prepared a car for them; two people could sit in the front driver's seat and passenger seat, while the rest sat on a long bench in the back, facing each other, capable of seating quite a few people.

This time, Tianze was still driving; Ning Chen didn't say anything, and he was quite happy to have someone else drive.

Now it was just the matter of who would sit in the passenger seat.

At first, the Elder intended for Ning Chen to sit in the passenger seat.

But who knew, Ning Chen and Xiao Han exchanged a glance, and immediately, the two acted simultaneously.

Xiao Han sat in the passenger seat, while Ning Chen took Gu Yanqi to sit on the very outside of the back row.

The Elder wore a helpless expression and couldn't say anything; fine, let them arrange it themselves.

Ning Chen sat on the very outside on the left, next to him was Gu Yanqi, next to her was Xu Yue who didn't want to leave Gu Yanqi; opposite Ning Chen was Huo Jinglin, inside was Lin Yi, and further inside was Xu Yue.

As for Xu Chenchen, actually he did not participate in this activity.

At this moment, he was standing beside the Elder, watching everyone wave.

The car started, and Ning Chen pulled down the curtain at the rear of the car.

This was a mesh curtain, like a fishing net; in the middle of both sides were magnets that could stick together.

Tianze drove the car gradually out of the residential area and spoke to remind them, "Everyone, in a moment, there will definitely be quite a few people; you should get used to it."

At first, Ning Chen didn't understand the meaning in Tianze's words, but when they arrived at the densely populated area, he understood.

On both sides of the road here, one could say it was a sea of people; probably half of F City's population was gathered here.

At this moment, they were all looking here, either with curiosity or disdain.

Due to the curtain blocking the view, people outside could almost not see inside, while those inside could clearly see outside.

Lin Yi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How is this like a celebrity runway show? What's the situation?"

Tianze explained, "Actually, this is a normal phenomenon. Because tasks of SSS rank and SS rank in the task list both belong to super-difficult tasks, generally when these two tasks are accepted, they cause a huge sensation. When they go out, they will gather together; roughly speaking, it's curiosity? Actually, ordinary people wouldn't be this many; maybe because your squad is newly established, they want to see what kind of people you are."

Lin Yi, having experienced the feeling of being a celebrity, heard Tianze's words and couldn't hold back, saying, "I thought survivors' daily lives would be full of anxiety and the like; I didn't expect it would be... so leisurely."

Lin Yi was speaking very subtly; actually, what these people meant in one sentence was, "Isn't this just being idle?"

Tianze pressed his lips together; to be honest, he agreed with Lin Yi's words. Indeed, this trip of theirs could be said to be very difficult. He didn't know how these few people were, but for others, generally accepting such a task basically meant death.

Actually, the mood of those going out was not so relaxed; it was basically serious and oppressive. The people here might have been protected too well, or maybe their adaptability was too strong; one by one, they had nothing to do.

Tianze stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away; only when reaching Damenkou did he slow down.

The guard saw the insignia on the car, decisively opened the gate, and gave a military salute to the few people.

This was the respect they showed for every squad or individual going out to execute a mission.

The car drove out of F City; the desolation outside and the sea of people inside formed a sharp contrast, as if suddenly moving from the human world to hell.

Of course, for everyone in this world, it could indeed be viewed this way.

"So where are we going now?" Lin Yi asked, looking at the similar scenery around.

Tianze took out a tablet and handed it to Lin Yi.

Ning Chen looked over; on it were dots of various colors.

"There is a detector here; look at the red ones, those are the infected. Of course, this won't be one hundred percent accurate; there will be omissions."
