After a long time…
Shen MO sighed lightly, appearing a bit helpless.
He went to the bed to help Bai Youwei tidy up the pile of clothes, the tin can of water on the table, and the folding crutch propped up at the corner of the bed… Sorting everything away one by one, and then he pushed her wheelchair.
Bai Youwei grabbed his wrist and looked up at him with clear, inquisitive eyes.
Shen MO remained silent.
Her fingers gently slid down into his palm, which was broad and warm. With restless intent, she idly scratched the slightly rough callouses on his hand.
“Hey, say something.” Her smile was all innocence, but within it was a mischievous tease, “Do you need me to give you another chance?”
Shen MO withdrew his hand, ignoring her playful provocations, and firmly pushed the wheelchair onwards—
This time, the spoilt girl Bai Youwei didn’t fuss. She let out an icy hmph.
Afterward, Shen MO lifted her to the passenger seat, and perhaps because she was genuinely tired, she was asleep soon after the offroad vehicle started moving.
Tan Xiao and Professor Cheng sat in the rear seats.
Further back, the trunk was crammed with luggage and food, two barrels filled with tap water, and that cool motorcycle, Tan Xiao had regrettably decided to leave it at the toll booth.
So, the group hit the road once more.
The journey from Zhenjiang to Yangzhou required crossing the Runyang Bridge, and the entire journey would not take more than about 30 minutes; however, Shen Mo’s car had been getting slower and slower. Because along the way, they had not seen a single person.
Too quiet…
It was as if all life had evaporated into thin air.
A city should not be like this.
The Yangtze River continued to roll on, and there was no ship visible on its surface, just the sound of wind on the bridge.
The car continued to drive forward, occasionally spotting some cars by the roadside, which were empty without a single person or doll in sight. (f)reenovelkiss
The extreme heat of the sun scorched the earth, but everyone’s hearts felt as if they had been soaked in cold water, giving rise to a wave of chill.
No one knew where the city’s people had gone.
Shen MO, who was driving, became even more cautious. He drove down the street, observing the surroundings, and even the usually lively Tan Xiao was staring out the car window, daring not to make a sound.
According to the original plan, they were to first take Professor Cheng to Jhor Middle Road.
However, when they were close to their destination, they encountered a large fog.
Yes, just like the fog common in autumn and winter.
White and thick, an unexpected haze on a clear day that enveloped all the streets and buildings, making it impossible for them to see the road ahead.
The fog was too strange, so Shen MO didn’t approach it. He chose another route, slowly driving along the edge of the fog.
They circled around most of Yangzhou City, yet they didn’t see a single person! The streets, shops, squares, parks, and hospitals… They were all devoid of people!
Where were the people?
Were they all hiding away?
Hiding in the fog? freew(e)bnovel
Should they also go in?
Would there be danger in the fog? What caused it?
There were no answers.
Professor Cheng thought of his elderly parents back home. He wrung his hands, his expression solemn.
Tan Xiao felt a bout of panic for the first time, and asked, “What should we do?”
Shen MO held the steering wheel and turned the corner ahead, he spoke in a deep voice, “Let’s go check out the supermarket first.”
Tan Xiao was even more confused, “To find food? But the trunk is already full…
“It’s to find people.” Bai Youwei leaned back calmly with her eyes closed, “Yangzhou is rumored as one of the safe cities. It’s not just accommodating its citizens, but also taking many refugees from outside. Logically, it should be crowded, and food would likewise become scarce. Supermarkets are places people frequently visit, so going to check it out. Perhaps we’ll find some clues.”
“Yes, we should check out the supermarket…” Professor Cheng wiped his eye corner and nodded forcefully, “I know a big supermarket not far ahead..”
