Chapter 130: Expansion

"Why did you go in again?" Dong Junwei looked at the girl sitting in the iron cage, feeling as if her heart had been stabbed.

"I..." Gu Yingliang seemed a bit at a loss.

"From now on, you are not allowed to stay inside this thing again." Dong Junwei was a little angry and pulled her out.

Gu Yingliang stood among the crowd, slightly stunned, and asked, "Then where should I stay?"

"I will arrange a room for you later; we all live together."

"Oh," Gu Yingliang lowered her head.

Chen Mu went up and directly melted the iron cage, then asked, "Did you always live in this cage before?"

"Yes, I only came out when I had to work."

"The so-called work was making food repeatedly?"

"Yes."

"The things in those boxes, were they all made by you alone?"

"Yes."

"Was there anything else?"

"There was a cafeteria, but not much," Gu Yingliang said.

"Have the people who made you work before eaten the food you made?" Chen Mu asked the main question.

"Some people have."

"Did any problems occur?"

"No, I also ate the food."

After hearing this, everyone was relieved.

Although they initially believed that the food should be edible, they were still not entirely at ease without confirmation.

Of course, it couldn't be said that it was absolutely safe, but for now, there was no reason to give up so much food just because of some unlikely suspicions.

Chen Mu thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know what a cafeteria is?"

"The place where people eat at school."

"Where did you go to school before?"

"I don't know," Gu Yingliang shook her head.

"You don't remember anything from the past?"

Moreover, in this situation, even if they had other thoughts, they wouldn't voice them.

The number of Qiming members increased to seventeen all of a sudden.

Though still not many, the growth was promising, and every aspect of the organization was developing in an orderly manner. Everyone had hope and could see a bright future.

That was the most crucial part.

To celebrate the new members' joining, the lunch was especially sumptuous.

After receiving a large amount of food, everyone felt more psychologically stable.

Of course, the cooking method remained quite simple.

Potatoes were sliced and roasted on iron plates.

And surprisingly, it smelled delicious.

Tomatoes and carrots can be eaten raw, and after frying the green peppers on the iron plate, they taste quite good.

For all the members of Qiming, after more than a month of striving for survival, today they have once again eaten the food they had before disaster struck.

The 36 wooden crates of food were probably meant to be a long-term food supply for Yizhong. Having it all taken away at once, it's no wonder they are furious.

No wonder they arranged guards inside the car.

It's easy to imagine that both the wooden crates and Gu Yingliang are crucial to Yizhong.

Dong Junwei even worried that they might seek revenge.

Luckily, this location is somewhat remote, and Yizhong only has around a hundred or so people. The chances of finding this storage room without being noticed by Qingbei are indeed low.

In the afternoon, Tang Jing went to the birdcages of the two prisoners again.

Chen Mu didn't follow this time because he had something to do. Instead, he watched from a distance as Tang Jing talked to the two prisoners and then left.

As usual, both of them finished the food Tang Jing brought for them, but they still didn't speak.

They didn't talk, and Tang Jing didn't ask. It's as if bringing these two back was simply because she wanted to take care of them.
