Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 29 Seems to be Left Behind
"Sister Shen Que!" Zhao Xiaoxiu looked outside the door in surprise.

It was bright inside the room and dark outside. Fortunately, she had night vision, otherwise she wouldn't be able to see what the people outside looked like.

The tentacles were retracted, but Zhao Gang immediately glanced over with an unhappy warning look.

Shen Que patted his chest. Even though he saw Zhao Xiaoxiu's welcoming smile, he didn't dare to step into the convenience store.

Zhao Xiaoxiu got off the bed and asked her with a smile, "Sister Shen Que, have you eaten?"

Shen Que stood outside the rusty door frame without glass, hummed awkwardly twice, and glanced at the pot of cooking pumpkin, "You two are eating well."

"By the way, have you met Meng Xia and his two brothers?" Shen Que asked.

Zhao Xiaoxiu said, "They went downstairs first when we evacuated last night. My father and I arrived a little late, so we didn't run into them again. Maybe they took another evacuation route."

"Did his mother go with them?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu: “Yes.”

"Okay." Shen Que waved his hand, "I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."

Zhao Xiaoxiu waved her hand and said, "See you tomorrow!"

After watching Shen Que leave, Zhao Xiaoxiu returned to the campfire, rummaged through his backpack, and counted the food inside.

There is enough nutrient solution, twenty-five bottles in total.

There are also two bunches of tomatoes as snacks on the way.

There is no need for Huo Dad to eat, she alone is enough to eat the entire Taoyuan base.

But there was only one pot of water left, and if you drank it sparingly, it would only be enough for two days.

It would be nice to have a virus filter.

Zhao Xiaoxiu felt a little regretful. If she had known that the base would become like this, she would not have saved any points and would have exchanged them all for daily necessities.

But things are unpredictable. The situation that happened last night had never happened before, and no one knew it would turn out like this.

"Sigh~" Zhao Xiaoxiu sat on the door panel, holding Zhao Gang's points card in her hand, and couldn't help sighing.

"Let's eat." Zhao Gang handed the cooked pumpkin and the pot to Zhao Xiaoxiu and handed her a spoon.

This is the last half of the pumpkin.

Zhao Xiaoxiu sniffed, the rich sweet smell whetted her appetite.

Forget it, let’s eat first.

The pot was still hot, so Zhao Gang helped to hold it. Zhao Xiaoxiu picked up the spoon, scooped up a large spoonful, blew on it, and put it into his mouth. He had a very good appetite.

In a short while, half the pot of pumpkin was gone.

A row of people stood outside the convenience store at some point, holding knives with flashing cold light in their hands, staring at the father and daughter in the store with green eyes.

Zhao Xiaoxiu was concentrating on eating and raised her eyes inadvertently.

Strange, is she dazzled?
Was there someone standing at the door just now? How come he is gone?

Zhao Gang tapped the edge of the pot with his fingers: "Pay attention to your meal."

Zhao Xiaoxiu said "oh" and glanced outside again. There was indeed no one there except the mutated weeds swaying in the wind.

The whole pot of pumpkin went into Zhao Xiaoxiu's stomach.

There was no water to wash the pot, so Zhao Gang just threw the pot aside.

He took out the cub's favorite Abebe and put it in her arms. After turning off the flashlight, the father and daughter lay down on the door panel together, feeling the night breeze with a faint smell of blood, and fell into a deep sleep.

It was early in the morning, and it was still dark.

In the camp, there were already sounds of people getting up and packing up.

Suddenly, a terrified scream pierced the night sky and spread throughout the town.

Zhao Xiaoxiu sat up with a start and found that the scream came from behind the convenience store.

"Dad." Zhao Xiaoxiu patted Zhao Gang's face.

The man, who didn't need to sleep at all, opened his eyes drowsily, imitating others, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu was speechless for a moment, then pulled Huo Die to the back of the convenience store.

The screams had stopped. Many people were attracted by the screams and gathered around a clump of mutated weeds, looking at the horrific dead body parts on the ground with horror in their eyes.

Zhao Xiaoxiu squeezed in between a row of long legs, took a look, and instantly shuddered in her little body, and quickly backed out.

Zhao Gang picked her up helplessly, as if nothing had happened around him. He calmly returned to the convenience store, lit a fire and boiled hot water for his cub to drink.

Zhao Xiaoxiu glanced at him several times. Others might not know, but how could she not know?
The living father killed someone!

"When did it happen? Why?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked in a low voice.

Zhao Gang replied: "They wanted to kill you and me last night during dinner."

So he killed them first. Zhao Xiaoxiu's eyes widened. She didn't notice anything!
"Dad, how did you do it?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked in horror.

Just as Zhao Gang was about to speak, Captain Mo walked in with a few people.

Zhao Xiaoxiu's heart beat faster.

Zhao Gang was as calm as ever. He boiled the last pot of water, poured it back into an empty bottle, put it in his backpack, and then took out a bottle of nutrient solution and handed it to Zhao Xiaoxiu.

Only then did he stand up and face Captain Mo, who was looking at him seriously.

"Do you have anything to say about the seven bodies behind the convenience store?"

Zhao Gang: “No.”

"With such a big commotion, you didn't notice anything last night?"

Zhao Gang: “No.”

"The dismemberment of the body parts looks very much like the method of a ghost, but they didn't gnaw on the corpse. Don't you think this is strange?"

Zhao Gang: “I don’t think so.”

Captain Mo choked violently.

Zhao Gang asked in confusion: "Don't you care about this kind of thing?"

Captain Mo stared at him for a long time with a grim expression, then suddenly turned and left.

Just left like that? Zhao Xiaoxiu felt it was a bit magical.

Zhao Gang spread his hands and smiled at his cub: "It's okay."

Zhao Xiaoxiu shook her head. No, she felt that things had gotten serious!

"Dad, what is there that I don't know?"

When they were on the road again, Zhao Xiaoxiu leaned on Zhao Gang's shoulder and whispered something in his ear.

Zhao Gang just smiled and said nothing.

There were many fewer people in the convoy today, but no one cared.

After all, in a disaster world, it's not surprising if a few people die.

Everyone just wants to reach Taoyuan base as soon as possible.

But accidents always catch people off guard.

The convoy encountered a fierce siege from a flock of mutant pigeons.

Zhao Gang immediately jumped out of the car holding his baby.

Zhao Xiaoxiu was covered tightly and could not see anything. She could only hear the crackling sounds of collisions, explosions, and fierce gunfire.

When everything calmed down, the father and daughter climbed out from under the green belt and saw the road full of mutant pigeon corpses and car wreckage. The same look of confusion appeared on their similar faces.

Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Dad, we seem to have been left behind."

Zhao Gang nodded: "Yes."

"So." Zhao Xiaoxiu asked expressionlessly, "Why did you jump out of the car?"

Zhao Gang: “Yes, why?”

He forgot too.

Zhao Xiaoxiu: “.”

She told herself to be stronger and more optimistic. It was not a big deal that she just didn't catch up with the main group. That would be strange!

Zhao Gang instantly realized that the cub was angry.

The little girl slid down from the straps on his chest, spread her short legs, and walked forward in big strides.

He walked a long way and suddenly stopped, took off his small backpack, squatted on the ground and fiddled with something.

Zhao Gang squatted down and took a closer look. It turned out that he was playing with a satellite phone.

"What is Kosode doing?"

A tentacle appeared in front of Zhao Xiaoxiu, its fleshy bud opened, swaying from side to side, looking flattering.

Zhao Xiaoxiu glanced at it.

Suddenly he became ferocious, raised his little hand, and slapped him.

The whole piece of flesh was crooked, and it was obviously stunned.

After a two-second pause, the eyeballs in the meat bud suddenly widened, all the fangs were exposed, and it snorted at the cub in front of it to express its anger.

As a result, he was ruthlessly flattened to the ground by Zhao Gang's big palm like a palm leaf fan again!
