Chapter 258: Han Yixue’s Plan (2)



Seeing his father frowning, Han Yixue continued, "With each phase of construction being complete, the base will only expand outward, and the number of survivors it can

accommodate will keep increasing. With so many people living together, issues with safety and hygiene are inevitable."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"While the military might be able to protect everyone and punish criminals, they can't control everything. Gangs will likely emerge, controlling the lower levels of the base. Wherever there are people, there is bound to be trouble."

"If we go to the Juncheng Military Base, we will likely end up in the outermost area, which would be like living in slums. Do you think it's safe there? Beyond the safety concerns, there won't be enough space for our family to live comfortably, and the hygiene conditions will be very poor."

"Rather than risking our lives for an uncertain future, we should stay with Miss Yao and her friends. Given their abilities and strength, I believe they can lead us to a better life."

"Even if we could only eat soup while they ate meat, it was enough for our family to live a better life than the other survivors. As long as we remain sincere and don't fight them, there will be no problem."

After listening to Han Yixue's analysis and explanation, Old Han asked worriedly, "Son, even if we wanted to join them, Miss Yao wouldn't accept us."

Han Yixue patted his father's thin hand reassuringly and said, "Father, she doesn't want us because we are of no use to them right now. If we can prove our worth to Miss Yao, she may reconsider. Think of it as working for them in exchange for protection."

Old Han pondered on his son's words for a long time before sighing, "But we have nothing to offer her."

Han Yixue smiled, "Father, don't worry about that. Leave it to me and my brothers."

Hearing this, Old Han could only nod and say, "I'm sorry, Yixue. It should be my responsibility to take care of this family, but here I am, letting you and your brothers shoulder it instead."

Han Yixue chuckled, "Father, I'm already twenty. I'm not a child anymore. We have all grown up, and it's time for you to relax and take care of your health."

Han Fengwen looked at his eldest brother and asked, "Brother, there is nothing here. Should we try the cafeteria? We might be able to find something there."

Han Renqi nodded, "Let's go."

The two brothers quickly left the supermarket and hurried toward the cafeteria.

In most rest areas, the cafeteria is located in the back. This one had over a hundred food stalls, and people could buy food and sit in the empty seats to eat.

Before reaching the cafeteria, Han Renqi and Han Fengwen were hit by the pungent smell wafting from inside. They exchanged glances, took a deep breath, and ran into the cafeteria.

As soon as they stepped inside, the stinky air almost made them faint. Due to the high temperature, the fresh ingredients had already spoiled. The stench of rotten meat mixed with dust made it hard for them to breathe.

Han Renqi covered his nose with his hand and said, "I will check the left side. You check the right side."

Han Fengwen nodded and hurriedly searched each food stall, covering his nose and mouth with his shirt.

After fifteen minutes, he finally spotted a few bags of noodles. His eyes lit up when he saw the three unopened packages of noodles and a little bit of salt left in the small bottle.

Han Fengwen quickly found a plastic bag and put the noodles and salt inside. After finding the noodles and salt, he searched each food stall even more carefully.

The two brothers continued searching for another half hour. When they left the cafeteria, each carrying two bags of supplies. They glanced at the plastic bags filled with supplies in each other's hands for a moment, then hurried back to the rest area.

A few seconds after they left, a low growl can be heard coming from one of the food stalls in the corner. Moments later, a few black shadows darted out at a fast speed, leaving only an afterimage of red lights.

When the Han family saw the brothers return with bags of supplies, their eyes lit up with hope.
