The crowd was in a mess. Those who reacted quickly had already pulled their children and ran to the nearest air-raid shelter. However, they had come out of the post-apocalyptic world after all. Their nerves had long been trained to be strong. Although they were in a panic, they did not collapse. There was still order.
"Let's go to the shelter. Maybe it's just a drill." Wu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and forced a smile.
Ever since she had arrived at the reconstruction area, the air defense siren had been sounded several times. Other than a small wave of beasts, the others were all drills. Maybe it was the same this time.
"It's definitely not a drill!" Luo Yuan said in a serious tone. Subconsciously, he looked up to the sky and saw more than 10 cigar-shaped dots flying past his head, spewing blazing flames.
Suddenly, hundreds of fighter jets flew over from the horizon. There were at least five hundred of them.
Before the apocalypse, other than China, the United States and Russia, other countries rarely had more than 100 modern fighter jets. Now, there were more than 500 of them.
This was the rhythm of a war!
"Brother Luo!" Chen Jiayi came over and interrupted Luo Yuan's thoughts.
"Let's go home!" Luo Yuan was stunned when he saw Chen Jiayi. He was so surprised that he almost couldn't recognize her. However, he reacted quickly and said
Chen Jiayi nodded. She had absolute trust in Luo Yuan. Even if she was betrayed by him, she would count the money for him.
"Luo Yuan, don't be silly." Wu Xiaoxiao thought that Luo Yuan was going to pack his luggage. She said, "There are a lot of supplies in the shelter. Even the whole city could survive for half a year!"
"There are people at home. I have to go back." Luo Yuan said sincerely. He was touched by Wu Xiaoxiao's anger.
"Are you stupid? They will go to the air-raid shelter by themselves, and we can look for them at that time!" Wu Xiaoxiao said anxiously when she saw that there were fewer people on the street.
"Just in case!" Luo Yuan said. He knew very well that they had been through countless dangers along the way. The people in the team had become extremely dependent on him, especially the women. If he did not go back, they would probably continue to wait.
Sun Youde was already impatient. He said, "We'll go first. See you at the shelter."
Luo Yuan nodded and pulled Chen Jiayi to leave.
"Wait! It doesn't look like there's any danger. Why don't we go to your house together? " Seeing that Luo Yuan was about to leave, Wu Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. "Let's go together, we can take care of each other!"
Sun Youde's expression was ugly, and it was obvious that he couldn't keep the smile on his face. However, at this time, no one noticed him.
"Alright, but everyone, hurry up." Luo Yuan nodded. He had a good impression of Wu Xiaoxiao and she was his old classmate. He would help her if he could.
"Okay!" Wu Xiaoxiao quickly said.
Luo Yuan did not say anything else. He pulled Chen Jiayi up and started jogging. The school was not far from their neighborhood, only about three kilometers away. Both Luo Yuan and Chen Jiayi, who had been infected by the parasite, could easily cover the distance even if they ran at the speed of an ordinary person.
But for Wu Xiaoxiao and Sun Youde, two ordinary people who didn't exercise much, they couldn't do it. They were only halfway through the run, but they were already sweating profusely and gasping for breath.
"Luo Yuan, how much further?" Wu Xiaoxiao asked, panting as she ran. Her face was pale.
"Soon, it's not far." Luo Yuan looked back and saw that Wu Xiaoxiao was about to collapse. He thought for a while and said, "Why don't I pull you and run?"
Wu Xiaoxiao hesitated and looked at Sun Youde. Seeing that she was looking at him, Sun Youde pretended to be generous and shrugged. He smiled and said, "Sure, you're so strong. I don't think you're sweating at all!"
Luo Yuan smiled and did not say anything. He let go of Chen Jiayi and held Wu Xiaoxiao's hand to continue running.
Wu Xiaoxiao, as her name suggested, was petite. She was only about 1.6 meters tall and weighed about 90 kilograms, which was not much heavier than Chen Jiayi. Luo Yuan was able to drag her along with him with just a little bit of effort.
Wu Xiaoxiao didn't notice it before, but when she was pulled along, she realized that this high school classmate of hers was too strong. Even though he was dragging her, his breathing was not the slightest bit disordered. He maintained a uniform speed. His skin was so smooth, and his palms were delicate and soft, yet strong. Smelling the man's fragrant scent, her heart could not help but pound, her face flushed, and her brain began to feel a little dizzy.
Sun Youde's lungs were like bellows, and he could not feel his legs. He looked terrible as he watched the three of them running further and further away. What made him hate the most was that Wu Xiaoxiao did not look back at him at all.
…..
Seven to eight minutes later, the four of them finally arrived at the villa.
Sun Youde sat on the sofa and panted heavily. His face was pale. He was surprised that this pretty boy was living in a high-end area. Even he did not have the right to do so.
One should not think that one could live in such a place as long as they had money. Nowadays, houses could not be bought or sold, so it did not matter how much money one had.
Everyone could be assigned a house once they entered the Reconstruction Area, and those who could live in such a high-end area were not simple people. They were either senior researchers or government officials.
The Reconstruction Area did not differentiate people's levels openly, but that was only done secretly. In fact, one could tell by looking at the houses and benefits.
What was the identity of this gigolo?
Sun Youde looked terrible, but he was secretly glad that he had not offended him before.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and two women walked out. His eyes instantly stopped moving, and his eyes were fixed on the two women like magnets. The older woman's appearance was not particularly outstanding, and she was about the same as his wife's. However, she was mature and plump, and her swaying posture could make a man's heart burn with just one look.
The younger woman was even more beautiful. She was like the most perfect piece of art. Every part of her body was exquisite and perfect. It was hard to look away.
Sun Youde was stared at fiercely by the little beauty. He quickly looked away and did not dare to look at her again. He was secretly envious and jealous. All the good cabbages were eaten by dogs.
Luo Yuan looked at them. Both of them were fully armed, and their clothes had all been changed into synthetic clothes.
"Have you called Zhao Yali?" Luo Yuan asked.
Huang Jiahui rolled her eyes and said, "I called her as soon as the air raid alarm went off. She should be here soon. Only Wang Xiaguang said she couldn't come."
Luo Yuan sighed. He was not surprised. Wang Xiaguang was soft on the outside, but tough on the inside. She was brave enough to love and hate. Ever since she had realized the reality, she had been trying to distance herself from him. Now that they had arrived at the Reconstruction Area, she obviously did not want to have anything to do with him. Sigh, everyone had their own way of living.
Huang Jiahui secretly looked at Wu Xiaoxiao. She smiled and said, "You haven't introduced us yet. Who are these two?"
"My high school classmate, Wu Xiaoxiao. This is her husband, Sun Youde. We bumped into each other on the way here. This is my girlfriend, Huang Jiahui, and this is Wang Shishi. "Luo Yuan briefly introduced them.
They greeted each other politely. Only Wang Shishi pouted and did not say anything. She was obviously not happy with Luo Yuan's introduction.
After a while, Mu Wenwen arrived, panting. She looked much better than before, and her face was more expressive. Apparently, she had been doing well recently.
Everyone was chatting, but their minds were elsewhere. As time passed, the ground started to shake. Luo Yuan could not help but look at his watch and walk around. Everyone gradually stopped talking. Wu Xiaoxiao wanted to speak a few times, but she was subconsciously deterred by the heavy atmosphere in the room.
Zhao Yali finally arrived after another five minutes.
"Why are you so late?" Luo Yuan asked.
"My colleague stopped me. It took me a lot of effort to get away," Zhao Yali said awkwardly.
As a beautiful woman, she had no shortage of suitors. Ever since she had found out that she was single, her boss had been pestering her like a dog skin plaster. She was weak and had always been submissive. Her boss had used the excuse of familiarizing her with the work to make it difficult for her to reject him. If she had not used the bathroom as an excuse, she would have followed them.
Maybe she should let Luo Yuan handle it next time so that he would back off.
"Be careful next time. Let's go." Luo Yuan did not say anything else. He picked up the Zhanmadao in the corner and walked towards the bomb shelter.
After such a long delay, there were very few people on the street. Some of them had already entered the bomb shelter safely.
They jogged all the way to the door of the bomb shelter. It was half-closed, and there was a team of soldiers guarding the door.
"Hurry up, you guys. The bomb shelter will be closed in three minutes," a soldier shouted. His face darkened when he saw Luo Yuan and the others.
