Chapter 255

And speaking of Li Qiangguo at this time, he was still sitting in the chair in the command post.

His face was haggard.

Because the supplies in the underground safety zone were really not much left.

Plus, survivors were constantly dying due to supply problems and illness.

In just two short weeks, more than three hundred people had already died!

……

Of course, he had thought about transporting supplies from the underground storage center in the center of Magic City.

But the low temperature of minus one hundred degrees made this impossible.

He looked at Chen Pingan next to him and asked: "How much longer can our current supplies last!"

"This..." Facing this question, Chen Pingan looked embarrassed, but still answered with a stiff upper lip: "According to the current standard of one meal a day, the entire underground safety zone of about 250,000 people can last at most another week!"

What, one week!

Li Qiangguo frowned upon hearing this: "This won't do; according to the news sent back earlier, the extreme cold storm will last at least another two weeks; two weeks, how can we persist!"

Chen Pingan came up with a bad idea: "Otherwise, reduce it to one meal every two days!"

Two days...

Li Qiangguo was speechless after hearing it; he looked at Chen Pingan: "Do you think it's feasible!"

Uh...

Fine!

Chen Pingan scratched his head, a bit embarrassed.

Indeed, one meal every two days wouldn't work for infants, young children, and lactating women!

But Chen Pingan had no other way; he said: "I have already sent people to try to go to the city center along the underground tunnel to bring back some supplies, but in some places there, it can even reach minus 70 degrees, which is simply not something we can cross!"

"The subway has also become a decoration, so..."

Chen Pingan didn't know what to do either.

Li Qiangguo naturally understood what he meant, but the situation now is: "No matter what, we must find a way to connect to the warehouse and transport supplies over, otherwise many people will die here!"

"Yes!"

Seeing the determination revealed on Li Qiangguo's resolute face.

Chen Pingan saluted, knowing there was no room for maneuver, and immediately agreed.

"Also!"

Oh right, Li Qiangguo thought of another thing: "What's the situation with the earthquake that appeared some time ago, and it seems there was a tremor again in the past two days; did something happen!"

"This..."

Chen Pingan had already investigated it; he shook his head and said: "It's not that there was an earthquake, but a deep pit about one square kilometer in size appeared in the center of Magic City, and it's bottomless!"

What, a deep pit...

Li Qiangguo frowned: "What is that!"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "We are not clear about this either, because the weather outside is too cold, and we have no way to send people out to investigate, so we are not clear about the specific situation there; we can only wait until the extreme cold storm passes!"

"Fine!"

Knowing that asking further was meaningless, Li Qiangguo simply said: "First find a way to transport the supplies over and solve our current problem!"

"Understood!"

Chen Pingan saluted and then turned to leave the command post.

……

Ring ring ring!

And just shortly after Chen Pingan left.

Suddenly, the landline in the command post rang.

Hmm?

Hearing the ring of the landline, Li Qiangguo was a bit surprised.

This landline is used for notifying tasks on weekdays and no one has ever called it; why did someone call in today.

But after hesitating for a moment.

He still chose to connect.

"Hello, who is this!"

There was no sound on the other end of the phone.

Li Qiangguo frowned: "Answer the question immediately!"

Finally, after a long while, Li Youen's pleasant voice came from the other side: "Dad!"

Dad...

This sudden voice made Li Qiangguo startle, followed by an expression of disbelief, and then surprise: "Is that you, Youen? Are you okay? Where are you!"

A series of questions reflected a father's concern for his daughter.

Making Li Youen's heart, which had been cold for more than a month, finally have a trace of loosening.

However, she didn't forget the purpose of this call: "I'm fine, temporarily very safe!"

"That's good, that's good!" Hearing this, Li Qiangguo finally let out a sigh of relief; his son Li Fan could no longer be found, and his wife had died in the threat of the apocalyptic zombies; now he only had this one precious daughter left.

He could not allow any more danger.

However, he wasn't so confused that he didn't ask about the situation: "How were you able to get through this phone? Where are you?"

Li Youen didn't answer, only saying: "You don't need to worry about how I got through; I want to ask you to help me with one thing now!"

"What thing!"

"I want to know the location of the Magic City airport now!"

What, Magic City airport...

Hearing this question from his daughter, Li Qiangguo was confused: "Why are you asking about this?"

The current Magic City airport had already transferred its destination.

Now all military strategic weapons, including the most advanced J20, J35, and a series of various fighter jets and transport planes, are all in the underground hangar! It's a military secret!

But now, his daughter wanted this location.

"What do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything!" On the other end of the phone, Li Youen said calmly: "I just want to know its location; I urgently need a transport plane or a fighter jet now!"

Li Qiangguo frowned: "In this weather, even if I tell you, you won't be able to start those fighter jets!"

Li Youen's voice gradually became cold: "I want to know the location!"

This...

Li Qiangguo hesitated; this is a military secret, not something just anyone can know.

But now his daughter wanted to know these things.

Li Youen also knew that asking like this was a bit excessive, so she softened a bit and said: "I only need at most two; don't worry, there won't be any behavior that threatens survivors; I need them to save more people!"

This...

Fine!

Finally, Li Qiangguo compromised, because he believed his daughter wouldn't betray him.

Therefore, he said in a deep voice: "There is a secret entrance at the abandoned airport fifteen kilometers east of Magic City, where we store a large number of fighter jets and weapons! But I think in this weather, they are just a pile of scrap metal!"

Getting the news she wanted, Li Youen, who had been nervous and worried all along, finally let out a sigh of relief, and looking at Ye Su's nodding action, she said to Li Qiangguo: "Okay, I know!"

But before ending the conversation, she added another sentence: "Do you have any difficulties recently!"

What difficulties do I have...

Hearing this, Li Qiangguo was full of tears; with just this one sentence, he already understood that his daughter had forgiven him, but as a father, he wouldn't tell her his problems, not to mention that even he couldn't solve such problems, so what could his daughter change.

Therefore, he shook his head and smiled: "I have nothing going on here; I only have one thing: you must live well!"

"Don't worry!" Li Youen smiled when she heard this: "I won't have any problems!"

Having said that, she hung up the phone directly.

Then she looked at Ye Su: "Done!"

……

Beside her, Shen Yi smiled: "I didn't see that, Sister Youen; your dad is really good to you; he would even tell you such things!"

But Li Youen shook her head: "No one would have thought that in this extreme, terrifying weather, someone would be able to fly away with a fighter jet, right!"
