The two found a slightly smaller supermarket in the afternoon. Most of the things inside had been taken away. Fortunately, the place was small and there were not many zombies inside. The two moved some rice and flour together, packed some sprouted potatoes and sweet potatoes, and returned to the Muchu Hotel.

As soon as the car stopped, Li Muchen raised his hand to put away some of the snacks, leaving some in the basket, and then said: "I'll go call a few people~"

At this time, the yard was almost dry, and the small puddles from the morning had already dried up a lot.

"Run slower." Mo Yanshu glanced at him and advised helplessly.

Before he could finish his sentence, Li Muchen had already climbed the stairs.

"Brother Xiao Qi, are you off work?"

Xiao Qi, who was drowsy at the door, heard his shout and immediately looked towards the door with wide eyes.

"Little Brother Qi?"

Wang Xin's voice came from behind Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi got goosebumps for a moment. He turned his head and looked behind him. He met Wang Xin's playful gaze. He felt even more frightened and smiled at Wang Xin.

Wang Xin looked at Xiao Qi, who looked silly, and shook his head, saying, "Go ahead."

"Thank you, Brother Xin!" When Xiao Qi heard this, he ran towards the door like a Husky that had been untied from its rope.

"This kid..." Wang Xin shook his head helplessly, raised his hand and picked up the registration book on the table, flipped through it, and found that the only people who went out today were Mo Yanshu and Li Muchen. For some reason, Qin Guo did not go out today.

But it was still okay. Liu Chi and a few others came to register and apply. He assigned Liu Feng and Zhu Ning, a few people they had met, to them, so that they would be more comfortable when they took action.

In the morning, he sent out two teams to the nearest cement factory and hardware store to collect relevant materials in preparation for building the initial version of the City of Light. However, it was already afternoon and the two teams had not returned yet, so he couldn't help but feel worried.

According to his memory, those two places should not be dangerous...

"Brother Xiao Qi, Yan Shu and we have brought back rice and flour. Hurry up and find someone to help!" As soon as Li Muchen ran up the stairs and showed his head, he hurriedly called Xiao Qi to find someone.

When Xiao Qi heard what he said, his eyes lit up. Before he even ran to the door, he immediately turned around and rushed to Wang Xin and said with a smile: "Brother Xin, quickly call a few people to help move the things! The two kids are back with dinner!!!"

"Make...a meal?" Wang Xin put away his thoughts and felt helpless after listening to Xiao Qi's words.

He said to the other people standing guard at the door, "Go and help. Li Zhen stay for a while."

"Yes!" The few people on guard responded and happily followed Xiao Qi in front of them, running out of the hotel together.

The one who stayed behind was a middle-aged man who looked very capable, with a sharp look in his eyes.

He turned to look at Wang Xin, his eyes also tinged with worry: "At this time, Qin Feng and the others haven't come back yet, could something have happened to them?"

"hold on."

……

Outside the hotel, Li Muchen called Xiao Qi and others to help move the rice and flour.

Mo Yanshu stood beside them, his expression becoming more serious. He turned to look at Xiao Qi and asked, "Where's Brother Wang?"

"He is a workaholic. He has been in the office all day with a map."

Xiao Qi waved his hand, raised his hand and held two 20-jin bags of rice and placed them near him: "The rice and flour are running out, and Brother Xin didn't eat anything at noon. Now that I have replenished them, I can persuade him to eat something."

When Mo Yanshu heard Xiao Qi's words, his brows slightly frowned: "Not much food left?"

"Not really." Xiao Qi looked around and confirmed that there were no other people around. After the other teammates who came out to help move things had already gone into the hotel, he and Mo Yanshu and Li Muchen walked at the back and whispered, "There are still some, but you know some people, they are never satisfied, they eat steamed buns today, and want fried chicken tomorrow."

"What kind of day is it that you still want to eat fried chicken? That's a nice thought. But... don't tell me, I really do..."

Xiao Qi: ???

The rice and flour had been taken away. There were two baskets on the ground next to Li Muchen. One gray basket contained various puffed foods, and the other basket was covered with a piece of cloth, so it was impossible to tell what was inside.

"Take this basket of things back and pick them out. When you come back, you'll see a fresh food supermarket with a cold storage inside. I didn't have much hope at first because the smell inside was so exciting! But I saw vacuum-packed salted fish and chicken nuggets. The fish probably won't go bad, but I'm not sure about the chicken nuggets. Let's take a look. If they're still edible, it can be considered a snack. Why do you keep eating rice and noodles?"

Li Muchen said as he lifted a corner of the basket.

Xiao Qi's eyes lit up when he saw this: "You are really capable, you can find something like this!"

"Honestly, I, your brother Chen, am extremely lucky!"

As Li Muchen spoke, he slung two baskets over his shoulders and said as he walked, "I see there are children in our team, so we can share some of them when the time comes. This kind of stuff has a long shelf life and can be eaten even after the expiration date. While there are still some..."

Having said this he sighed deeply and did not continue.

Li Muchen and Xiao Qi were chatting happily, but Mo Yanshu didn't say anything. He just listened to them silently, thinking about how to tell Wang Xin about the strange things he encountered on the road.

The three of them entered the hotel together. Wang Xin was already standing in the lobby, directing them to put away the food they had just found.

"Thank you for your hard work." Wang Xin looked at Mo Yanshu and nodded slightly. When their eyes met, Mo Yanshu noticed that Wang Xin seemed to be worried about something.

Mo Yanshu also nodded, and then said, "Excuse me for a moment."

Wang Xin was not surprised to hear this, and raised his hand to invite Mo Yanshu into the office.

Mo Yanshu patted Li Muchen's shoulder and said softly, "Muchen, come here."

Upon hearing this, Li Muchen quickly turned around and saw Wang Xin standing at the door of the office with a serious face. He frowned and said, "If there is nothing for me to do, I'd better stay here with Brother Xiaoqi."

After hearing what he said, Mo Yanshu looked around and saw that the surroundings were empty and there seemed to be no major problems, so he whispered, "Okay. Don't close the door. Call me anytime if you have any problems."

"Oh! Don't worry, I'll just stand here with Brother Xiao Qi, it's okay." Li Muchen waved his hand, then turned around and continued chatting with Xiao Qi.

Mo Yanshu turned around and took another look. Seeing that there was no problem, he walked into the office and sat opposite Wang Xin.

Wang Xin looked at Mo Yanshu's nervousness over Li Muchen, lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a calm voice, "What did you find?"

"You remember the supermarket on Wuqing Road? There seemed to be survivors on the top floor. They had binoculars and must have seen us, but for some reason, they didn't call for help."

As Mo Yanshu spoke, he leaned back in his chair and turned to look outside again.

Li Muchen and Xiao Qi pointed at the things in the basket and laughed happily, and he felt slightly relieved.

"It's so distracting, why not call them in." Wang Xin followed his gaze and glanced outside, his tone slightly heavy.

"No need." Mo Yanshu shook his head, "Let's talk business."
