After the two men left, Song Zhi was still waiting for Guo Xiong to bring people to the supermarket to shop again.

These days, Guo Xiong brings people here every day, without fail.

But this time, Song Zhi waited until dark, but no one came.

"Aha……"

Looking at the sky outside which had completely fallen into darkness, Song Zhi stretched his body and said lazily, "It looks like there won't be any more guests today..."

-

At the same time, Beiyuan Base.

Guo Xiong is facing the most difficult moment in his life.

This afternoon, he originally wanted to gather those people together and announce that he would no longer take them to the supermarket, and those who originally knew the way could take this position.

But before he could gather those people together.

Two guards found him and said that their superiors wanted to see him for something.

Something happened upstairs and he had to go.

Even before he went there, he already had a vague feeling that this would be related to the supermarket.

He was taken to the building in the middle of the base and led by the guards to the top floor on the left.

If he remembered correctly, that was the office of the captain of the collection team and the son of the leader of the Beiyuan base.

Once before, when he was out collecting supplies, he accidentally picked up a crystal core and handed it in. For this, he was rewarded with a week's worth of food.

The reward was received in this office.

But this time, he is not here to receive a reward. On the contrary, he will be punished.

"Captain Chil asked you to go in and find him directly. We have work to do. Please go in by yourself."

Two guards stood on either side of Guo Xiong, one on the left and one on the right, as if they were escorting a prisoner. When they arrived at the place, they sent Guo Xiong to the door.

"Two big brothers, do you know why the captain asked me to do this?"

Guo Xiong swallowed nervously and looked at the two people next to him with praying eyes.

But the two guards nearby seemed not to hear it. They pushed Guo Xiong forward and turned away.

The office door was ajar and opened with a slight touch.

Guo Xiong staggered and took several steps inside before he could finally steady himself.

When I looked up, I met a familiar gaze.

"Qi...Captain Qi'er, is there something you want to talk to me about?" Guo Xiong spoke haltingly.

As he spoke, his legs began to tremble unconsciously.

Help, he couldn't control it, he just wanted to tremble!

Qi'er smiled, with his hands on the table, and answered Guo Xiong's question calmly.

"I heard that you seldom go out to collect supplies recently? Why? Is it because there is no one to team up with?"

Almost all the people who had teamed up with Guo Xiong to collect supplies had died. Everyone in the base knew about it at the time, and Qi'er was the same.

Guo Xiong was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, Captain. I haven't found anyone to go with yet."

"Oh? Do you have enough daily necessities?" Qi'er pretended to be surprised.

Guo Xiong felt uneasy at the sight of his expression, but he still nodded and said, "Enough...enough."

The food in the supermarket is cheap and delicious, and of course enough for their family of three!

"Heh." Qi'er snorted coldly, and then his expression suddenly changed.

"Really? I see you didn't find anyone to team up with, you found some supplies outside and hid them secretly instead of handing them over to the base!"

All materials collected by the collection team must be handed over to the base unconditionally. This is a rule that was in place when the base was first established.

But at this time, Guo Xiong violated this rule.

Even if he bought those supplies from the supermarket with his own money, it would not work.

When Qi'er said this, even a fool like Guo Xiong understood that Qi'er knew about the supermarket.

But he still wanted to make an excuse.

"Captain, I didn't mean to not hand in the supplies. I bought all the food from the supermarket with my own money, so it should be counted as my own."

"Oh, one person?" Qi'er laughed. "The base protects your safety, and you took the supplies for yourself and still want to make excuses?"

"But……"

Before Guo Xiong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qi'er.

"No buts. Your behavior is bad. According to the base rules, you should be kicked out of the base. However, the base considers that you are a first-time offender. As long as you take us to the supermarket and get the supplies, the base can let you go. You..."

"no!"

When Guo Xiong heard that Qi'er had ideas about the supplies in that supermarket, he flatly refused.

It was the first time that he dared to speak so loudly to the base leadership.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned and began to feel scared.

After all, he had been obedient for a long time, and it would be difficult for him to change his mind in a short time.

"No? Do you know what you are saying? You are not taking the base seriously!"

Qi'er didn't expect that someone in the base would dare to refute his words.

Normally, we have to listen to whatever he says.

"I didn't neglect the base. The owner of the supermarket was very kind and sold food to us generously..."

As Guo Xiong was speaking, an idea suddenly occurred to him.

"Captain, the supplies in that supermarket are abundant and the prices are reasonable. In fact, we can trade directly with the owner of that supermarket. The owner is a very good person and should agree to sell supplies to our base."

Guo Xiong suddenly thought that the base had money and the supermarket in Songzhi had supplies.

If they can cooperate, it will be the best of both worlds, and everyone will get what they want.

But Guo Xiong's proposal was destined not to be what Qi'er wanted.

In his eyes, all supplies in the north should be unconditionally donated to their base.

As for spending money to cooperate...ha, ridiculous.

Guo Xiong would never agree with Qi'er's words.

and so……

After half an hour.

He was holding two suitcases, and behind him were his wife and son.

"Dad, they are so unreasonable. They just kicked us out like this?"

Guo Leshan stood at the gate of the base, holding the only washbasin in his home, with an angry look on his face.

Those people are simply robbers!

No, it's as rude as a robber.

Without saying anything, he asked them to pack their luggage and said that if they couldn't pack within half an hour, they could just leave and don't need to take anything.

Fortunately, his family was poor and there were not many things he could use, otherwise he would have lost a lot of money.

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's Dad who has implicated you." Guo Xiong's face looked much more haggard.

He didn't expect that the punishment given by the base this time would be so severe that they directly kicked out the three of them.

It is the end of the world now. Without the protection of the base, the surrounding area is still a wasteland with no place to live.

If this continues, death will be waiting for them.

Shi Shuwan knew the actual situation and did not blame him. She patted Guo Xiong on the shoulder and comforted him.

"I can't blame you for this. I think the base was wrong. We spent our own money to buy the supplies, so they should be ours. And judging from what the base said, they just wanted to take over the supermarket for themselves."

She was grateful to the supermarket because it had made their lives much better recently and at least they were no longer hungry.

So when he knew Guo Xiong's decision, he was not angry.

"Yeah, Dad, it's not your fault. I don't know who leaked the news and it was discovered by the higher-ups..."

Guo Leshan curled his lips and hugged the washbasin tightly in his arms.
