The brother and sister were defeated step by step. Although mosquitoes were afraid of fire, the fire of a torch had its limitations, and such big mosquitoes were still very scary.

The boy was pulling his sister, stumbling around looking for a place to hide, while waving the torch in his hand to drive away the alien mosquitoes blocking the road, and he had to keep an eye on the road and do three things at once.

He accidentally stepped on a bone and slipped, losing his balance and falling, with the torch in his hand falling out.

As he fell, his sister fell to the ground with him, and she couldn't help crying.

Just as a big mosquito landed on Xiaohe's back and was about to suck blood, a black shadow pushed the mosquito to the side.

Before Xiaohe and her brother could react, they were pulled into a small cubicle by two big hands, and the door was slammed shut.

They only felt a flash before their eyes, and then they were pulled into a cubicle by a great force. They were so dazed that they couldn't recover for a long time.

It was not until they heard a few cat meows and scratching sounds at the cubicle door that they both mechanically turned their necks and looked at the cubicle door at the same time.

Lu Zhu looked at the dazed looks of the two siblings and didn't know what to do. He pushed the door open a crack and Zhizhi squeezed in smoothly.

It meowed continuously and rubbed against Lu Zhu's arms for a reward.

Lu Zhu was in no hurry to speak. She sat on the lazy sofa, hugged the cat and stroked it.

The solar lights in the compartment provided warm light, not glaring, and the brother and sister were able to clearly see the person who saved their lives.

She is very beautiful, with delicate features and fair skin. Her eyes and eyebrows cannot reveal any emotion, but for some reason she gives people a sense of coolness.

Her clothes were inconspicuous, dirty and gray, but her face and hands were clean, much cleaner than those of anyone they had seen. Her condition was just like before the natural disaster. The same went for her hair. Apart from her clothes, all the skin exposed was spotless.

Realizing that it was impolite to stare at someone, the boy coughed dryly and his face felt a little hot.

"Hey, hello, thank you for saving us. My name is Xie Tang and this is my sister Xie He." Xie Tang looked at Lu Zhu gratefully.

But Lu Zhu was sitting, and the two of them were standing, so it felt like an interview.

"You guys go find a place to sit first! Those things won't move away for a while~" Lu Zhu also felt uncomfortable talking with his neck tilted back, so he asked them to be more casual.

The brother and sister found a corner to sit down and listened to the noise outside the door. The buzzing sound was still there. Perhaps they knew they had hidden here, and some mosquitoes were trying to peck at the door with their mouthparts.

No one spoke, only the occasional squeak and snoring could be heard.

"Gurgle~" A sound that echoed throughout the compartment came from the brother and sister at an inopportune time, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Xie Tang's originally dirty face instantly turned completely red. What kind of social death scene is this?

Xie He rubbed his belly embarrassedly. It would have been better if he hadn't rubbed it. Once he rubbed it, the sound of protest became even louder.

"Sorry, don't chase us away. We will be quiet." Afraid that Lu Zhu would chase them away, Xie Tang stood up and tightened the belt around his waist.

Xie He followed suit, standing up and tightening the belt around his waist.

It has been only a little over a year since the end of the world. Without the protection of adults, they have become extremely thin. When they are hungry, they can only tighten their belts to avoid feeling hungry.

"Where is your home? Why are two of you walking around in the middle of the night?" Lu Zhu watched their actions without any special feelings and just asked casually.

The two people who sat down again heard Lu Zhu's question. They had nothing to hide and told everything out loud.

"We are from Lincheng. Our parents worked in the provincial capital so we followed them here. During the snowstorm, they froze to death while trying to protect us. Now we are the only two people left to depend on each other." Xie Tang lowered his head and slowly recounted his experience.

Xie He also lowered his head and drew circles on the ground with his fingers.

"Didn't the country build shelters and bases? Why didn't you go there?" Lu Zhu asked, his tone calm.

"We have nothing. If we go out, we will die. It's more than 200 kilometers from here to the first base. Even if we go out, we can't afford the toll, let alone the supplies to get into the base. We can't find something here to barely survive." Xie Tang was helpless and frustrated. If they could leave, they would have left long ago.

The government also has cars to pick up people, but they prioritize people with special abilities, and then strong laborers with supplies. The old, weak, sick and disabled people like them are not on their rescue list. There are also people who follow the government cars, and they all have supplies and abilities.

"As long as the government is here, they won't abandon us~" Lu Zhu believes in the Chinese government, and putting people first is the government's principle.

"Before, the government here also provided irregular support, such as food, water, and some supplies. But we haven't seen any in the past six months. Those who had supplies and special abilities have been taken away one after another, and we haven't seen anyone coming here. Those who have abilities have also gone to the bases and various shelters one after another. We can't leave," Xie Tang stated the reality calmly.

Lu Zhu looked at the two siblings and understood. It reminded her of her previous life. She had no special powers, and it was so difficult for her to support such a large family.

Seeing how thin his sister is, she must have caused him a lot of worries. She is sick, has no food, and might even be robbed. These are probably all normal things.

The apocalypse has lasted so long, even if the government wants to regroup, it may not be able to achieve everything that was done before the apocalypse, just like there were still poor people living under the capital before!

He didn't dare to leave his sister alone, so he took her everywhere with him, so she couldn't get far. This place was so big, and there must be a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants left behind. He was a competent brother.

When they entered the mall within 100 meters, Lu Zhu became alert.

Lu Zhu had no intention of intervening to save them, but she could clearly sense what they were doing in her spiritual realm.

When the mutant insects came, he did not let go of his sister's hand. This may be one of the reasons why Lu Zhu was soft-hearted.

When she was in the orphanage, she wanted a brother who could protect her, but at that time she had to take care of everything by herself most of the time.

Seeing siblings like them, she felt as if she were making up for her own childhood.

Somehow I got them into this small storage room, so I might as well do a good deed for the day!

The buzzing noise outside never stopped, and the brother and sister sat stiffly in the corner without saying a word.

Time passed by little by little, with only Zhizhi making comfortable snoring sounds from time to time.

"Gurgle..." After a long silence, the brothers and sisters' stomachs were still singing the empty city plan.

Lu Zhu also came back to his senses from his contemplation. If he wants to save someone, he should do it to the end!

She turned around and took out a few previously roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes in a plastic bag, seemingly from behind the lazy sofa, but actually from inside the space, and threw them in front of the brother and sister.

Xie Tang and Xie He looked at Lu Zhu in a daze, then looked at the things thrown over. When they saw what rolled out of it, their eyes widened.

Xie Tang's eyes suddenly felt sore, and a stream of water rushed into his eyes...
