Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 472 Going to His Hometown

Upon hearing the words, she nodded, indicating she understood.

The situation there was quite good, and the cleanup was fast.

However, in other places, quite a few bugs were still being found.

The entire base was now in a state of panic.

Jhiang Yuan came to the cafeteria to eat and everyone was discussing this issue.

"Squad Leader Cheng, what’s this about?"

"Jiang Yuan, here’s the thing, I want to ask if you can come back to lend a hand.

The bug situation these past few days has caused widespread panic, and many people have taken leave.

We don’t have additional people coming over, I’m wondering if you all could come back here."

Jiang Yuan knew that they must have run out of options to come to her for help.

Previously, they had all been working here, but several had left abruptly.

"No way, Jiang Yuan is going with us to deal with the bugs, look for someone else."

She hadn’t even spoken when Song Yi flatly rejected the request.

"I’m sorry, Squad Leader Cheng, we probably won’t be able to make it."

"Then what about letting Auntie come over?"

Huh, they were actually considering asking Qin Yue.

"Squad Leader Cheng, I have two children at home, you know that.

If my mom comes over, it will be very troublesome for the kids."

Although she had brought them over before, times have changed and the situation could not be dealt with in the same manner.

"Squad Leader Cheng, how about I come over and help tomorrow, Sister Yuan needs to clean up the bugs.

Auntie has to take care of the two children, and I can just come over."

Ye Mianmian offered a way out, and it was naturally accepted.

"That would be great, thank you Comrade Ye Mianmian, then come over and help out tomorrow.

It’s not anything else, the situation in the cafeteria is quite special.

If we are too short-staffed, everyone won’t have meals to eat, and that’s a serious matter."

Alright, she wasn’t exaggerating the situation.

"No problem, we all understand."

With the matter decided, they went to look for Jiang Yuan in the afternoon.

Camp Commander Xie had already achieved good results, but the materials Dong Dali had provided were quite special, with several being scarce.

"If it had been in the past, it naturally wouldn’t have been an issue.

But with the current situation, it’s simply impossible to find them."

With the impending natural disaster, it was normal for such cherished items to no longer be available.

"So what do we do now?"

"We can’t put all our trust in this person, Dong Dali is definitely not a good man.

He had the idea of breeding bugs before, and maybe he still has some other connection with the bugs."

Jiang Yuan analyzed as everyone present was an insider, and thus spoke freely.

"If we want to know, I think we should go to a place."

She looked at the three people around her, and Song Yi immediately thought of it.

"You mean, Half Moon Lake?"

"Exactly, Dong Dali came from there, we might find unexpected things if we go there."

"Speaking of which, since we last burned those bugs, we haven’t gone there for a long time."

As Jhiang Yuan spoke, everyone was reminded of the past events.

Besides fear, there were also many other emotions.

However, these things, no one mentioned out loud.

"There’s no time to lose, let’s go now."

Song Yi made the decision on the spot, having just finished lunch, it was just past one o’clock, there was enough time to make the trip.

"Okay, I’ll call some people, and we can go together."

"Alright!"

Camp Commander Xie hastily left, and the remaining people quickly got ready as well.

It was unclear what the situation was like over there, and being unprepared could lead to a very passive stance.

Soon, a team of about fifty people was assembled.

This time they were going on foot, moving quite fast, almost jogging.

Jiang Yuan also ran along, as her physical fitness had been honed.

He Lan couldn’t keep up, and halfway through, she was so tired she couldn’t even stand up straight.

"I can’t do this, I can’t, I’ll catch up with you guys in a bit."

Jiang Yuan was rather speechless; he had told her not to come, but she insisted on doing so.

"Just hang on a little longer, we’re almost there."

"I can’t do it anymore, Senior Brother, you guys go on without me, I can’t go any further."

As she spoke, she unceremoniously sat down on the ground.

The sudden increase in physical activity was naturally difficult to cope with.

Both physically and mentally, it would be a burden.

"Let’s do this, you two stay behind to protect Miss He Lan.

The rest of us will continue moving."

Camp Commander Xie made the decision, and none of the others objected.

She was a researcher; if anything happened to her, it would be quite troublesome.

Leaving two people behind could ensure her safety.

Jhiang Yuan did not say much, simply following the instructions given.

Soon, the remaining team members set off once again.

After so many days, returning to this place still brought a sense of nostalgia.

There wasn’t much change here; the village area was still flat land.

Even the blackness from the last fire was still very noticeable.

"Everyone have a look around, and be careful of the bugs."

"Yes!"

Song Yi and Jhiang Yuan were together, and along with Jiang Yuan, they headed directly towards the few trees at the back.

The trees had been burned to death last time, but their roots were still there.

"Could these be sprouting again?"

Jiang Yuan squatted on the ground, also looking surprised.

"What?"

The two hurried over to assess the situation.

There were indeed faint green shoots on the ground; the roots were large, protruding slightly from the surface.

"Could it be that these trees can’t die?"

Jhiang Yuan voiced her question, finding it incredible that after such a strong attack, they could still be alive.

"This place is too strange, we can’t think about it in the usual way.

Let’s do this, we’ll go look at the top first."

The "top" Song Yi referred to was the lake.

Currently, everyone was at the bottom of it.

"Okay!"

They went to find Camp Commander Xie, but there were no new discoveries here yet.

"Then let’s go up, we have to go there sooner or later."

"Let’s leave a few people behind, we don’t all need to go over."

With the area being so mysterious, naturally a two-pronged approach was necessary.

"Alright, I’ll make the arrangements."

They didn’t wait and went straight up.

Song Yi was continuously holding onto Jhiang Yuan, fearing any problems.

The trees surrounding the lake had all been burned, but many still stood erect.

Jiang Yuan hurried over to check, as the recent regrowth had given him a certain psychological shadow.

"No, there are no new shoots here."

"That’s good, let’s go inside and have a look."

"You guys go ahead, I’d better check these out."

Jiang Yuan wasn’t reassured and wanted to inspect the remaining trees.

Song Yi nodded and followed Camp Commander Xie further in.

The water in the lake was still unusually clear.

"There are no bugs, look how clean it is."

Indeed, without bugs, she felt a bit better.

"Commander, look, why is there still a fire pit here?"

Looking in the direction pointed to, there was indeed a pile of burning embers.

Because everything around was black, it wasn’t very noticeable unless you looked closely.

"Everyone be careful, there should be people here."

As Song Yi spoke, she took out her pistol, readying herself for combat.
