196: Jiang Fei was named

Jiang Fei and Lu Yu arrived at the bottom of a tall building in Lu Yu's car.

Led by a soldier at the entrance, they went up to the top floor.

Inside the conference room.

Director Zheng sat at the head of the table.

On the seats to his left and right were Director Ning, Kang Ansheng, Director Hu from the Research Institute, Xu Qianyao, Yang Zhanguo, and the various captains of the Rescue Team and Patrol Team.

Jiang Fei and Lu Yu sat down.

Once everyone was present, Director Zheng spoke in a deep voice: "As you all know, the Safety Shelter is facing a new crisis."

"The bacteria carried by locusts have contaminated the water source, leading to bacterial infections in thousands of people, and the Research Institute has already received the test results."

"This is a type of bacteria that damages the digestive systems of animals and humans. Those with mild symptoms will recover after a few days of antibiotics, while severe cases will result in death."

"Not only that, but the bacteria can also affect plants, causing diseases, and even spread to humans and animals through symbiosis."

"The Safety Shelter has no way to solve this, so we called this meeting to ask for your opinions."

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke.

To solve the problem of water source pollution, either residents must be prohibited from using water, or the water source must be disinfected.

The former is simply not realistic; people will die of thirst without water.

The latter is impossible to achieve.

The Safety Shelter's disinfectants had long been used up due to poisonous ants, poisonous scorpions, and the epidemic.

Nearby settlement areas had no stock either.

The most serious issue was that new special medicines and antibiotics were running low.

Besides the Safety Shelter needing medicine, all the settlement areas also needed it.

Under the difficult conditions of the apocalypse, they couldn't mass-produce medicines; with only outflow and no inflow, how could they hold on?

By the time those old machines and instruments produced medicine, the infected would all be dead!

Even if the Research Institute said that boiling water could kill the bacteria and make it safe to drink, they still had to consider reality.

Not everyone's home had electricity.

Moreover, the plants and animals in the Planting Base would also be affected.

Life cannot survive without water resources.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became exceptionally oppressive.

Jiang Fei also remained silent.

Not to mention that the antibiotics and new special medicines she hoarded weren't enough for the entire Safety Shelter.

She also had to keep the medicines for emergencies.

Medicines would only become scarcer; she wasn't selfless enough to give up everything.

At critical moments, her own life was the most important.

At this moment, Director Ning broke the silence.

"Director, we can seek help from the Kyoto Base."

"Kyoto is the largest base in our country, and its pharmaceutical factories have new equipment and plenty of staff, so they definitely have enough medicine."

"We are at most a four- or five-day drive from Kyoto, so a round trip would take about ten days."

"The water previously stored in the Safety Shelter can sustain everyone for a little under half a month."

"I am willing to lead a team to Kyoto to apply to the Base Leader there."

The Safety Shelter had no way to contact Kyoto, so to reach them, they could only drive there.

Director Zheng couldn't help but look at Little Jiang: "Little Jiang, how do you contact your boss?"

Her boss behind the scenes was Mo Yanan.

Perhaps there was a way to contact Kyoto without Lao Ning leading a team, thereby reducing the time it would take to get the medicine.

Jiang Fei, suddenly called out, looked bewildered.

Why would Director Zheng ask her?

Could it be... he thought her boss was from Kyoto?

Jiang Fei's mind raced, and she calmly said: "By having others run errands to deliver messages."

Director Zheng's disappointment was evident.

That was no different from Lao Ning going to Kyoto.

"Lao Ning, pick a few trustworthy people, lead a team, and depart tonight."

"Lao Hu, the pharmaceutical factory you are in charge of will continue to produce medicine, and as for the remaining medicine..." Director Zheng took a deep breath before saying the rest:

"It will be used for patients with mild symptoms first."

"For severe cases, treatment will be abandoned."

The Safety Shelter could not save all patients infected with bacteria; some had to be sacrificed.

Survival of the fittest, this was an undeniable reality.

Director Zheng ended the meeting with a heavy heart.

Everyone left one after another.

Director Ning called out to Jiang Fei, Lu Yu, and Xu Qianyao.

"You all go home and pack your luggage. Be at the Safety Shelter's entrance and exit at 7 PM sharp."

Little Jiang knew Mo Yanan, and perhaps she could help the Safety Shelter successfully get help from the Kyoto Base.

Lu Yu and Xu Qianyao were young men he valued, strong and reliable to have by his side.

The three nodded in agreement.

"I didn't expect you, Lao Ning, to have a day when you'd go on a mission."

Yang Zhanguo walked over and slapped Director Ning on the shoulder: "No matter what, come home safe."

"And you, Little Jiang, you all must also pay attention to safety."

"You've been in your new home for so long, and I haven't congratulated you on your housewarming."

"When you return from Kyoto, I'll treat you all to a meal and drinks."

Jiang Fei and the others all said "Okay."

Leaving the building, Jiang Fei told Lu Yu to go home. She found an unmanned place, took out a commercial vehicle, and drove to Building 2, Mingshang.

After restocking the five rooms on the third floor, she went to the second floor to collect the gold earned by the two shops.

System: [Ding—Detected gold: 356,000 grams]

Then, she drove to the warehouse on West Street to collect what Crippled Wang, Yao Damang, and Cao Xiuhong had earned.

[Ding—Detected gold: 6,300,000 grams]

[Current unlock progress: 87%]

Hopefully, this trip will unlock a new area!

Jiang Fei thought, then took out supplies from the Supermarket warehouse and filled the first floor of the warehouse.

The second floor held supplies that Jiang Zhengkang and the others would use, mostly bottled drinking water.

She didn't know when she would return, so she prepared more for everyone.

Jiang Fei contacted A Meng on the walkie-talkie and told him about her upcoming trip.

"The goods that Crippled Wang and the others are selling are all in the warehouse on West Street."

"The first floor is yours, and the second floor belongs to the two shops."

"Today, drive to the Planting Base for me and deliver 20 boxes of water to Ling Zhaorui, taking them from the second floor of the warehouse."

A Meng: "Okay, Miss Jiang, have a safe trip."

Jiang Fei hummed in response, cut the call, and drove back to Dongyang District.

She didn't go to the two shops in Ping'an; she trusted that Su Liuyuan would manage them well in her absence.

Noticing Xiao Chuxia's car parked at the entrance of 03, and Su Liuyuan's car also back, Jiang Fei stepped out of her car in confusion.

Only then did she see that the main gate of 01 was wide open.

Su Liuyuan and Xiao Chuxia were both at Lu Yu's house.

Jiang Fei went in and asked: "Why are you all here?"

Xiao Chuxia: "I received orders from above to go to the Kyoto Base with the main force."

"Besides me, there's also a nurse and two doctors to ensure everyone's safety."

Su Liuyuan: "Lu Yu told me on the walkie-talkie that he was going out, so I came back to help."

He originally wanted to go to Kyoto too.

It wasn't far from Changhai, so he could visit Lu Yu's home to retrieve the diamonds he promised him, and also check if the organization's old hideout had moved.

If it hadn't, he'd go steal a wave.

But he couldn't leave the two shops in Ping'an unwatched.

Captain, Chu Xia, and Lu Yu were all going out, and Brother Ling was at the Planting Base, leaving him alone at home.

He had to guard the home well.

Jiang Fei handed the key to 0-02 to Su Liuyuan: "I'll trouble you to take care of Big Yellow and the others."

"I'll prepare enough food for them before I leave."

"Potatoes and sweet potatoes are planted in the yard; I'll tell you how to water them later."

Su Liuyuan patted his chest and said: "No problem, Captain, I guarantee I'll take good care of the home!"

"Come to my house for dinner in half an hour; I'll go get ready first."

Jiang Fei returned to 02 and first prepared food for the five little ones, sufficient drinking water, necessities, etc.

Then she filled two buckets with diluted Supermarket fountain water.

One bucket was diluted a hundredfold, and the other a thousandfold.

She labeled them separately to make it easy for Su Liuyuan to water the two areas later.

Taking out ready-made meals from the Supermarket warehouse and placing them on the table, Jiang Fei picked up Big Yellow from the sofa.

"I'm going out. You be good at home and listen to Su Liuyuan. I'll bring you a gift when I return."

"Meow!" Big Yellow affectionately rubbed its head against Jiang Fei's chin.

Don't worry, two-legged beast!

It was the best behaved!

Soon, Lu Yu and the other two came over for dinner.

Jiang Fei taught Su Liuyuan how to water the crops in the yard.

After dinner, everyone went back to their respective homes to pack their luggage.

Su Liuyuan couldn't help much, so he simply went to 01 to chat with Lu Yu.

Mainly, he wanted to remind the other party not to forget to retrieve the diamonds if he had the chance.

With her teammates staying indoors and no one outside, Jiang Fei seized the opportunity to take out the Unimog.

A heavy-duty off-road RV, safe and comfortable, how could she go on a long trip without her big baby!

She used the walkie-talkie to tell Lu Yu and Xiao Chuxia that they could move their packed luggage into the RV. Jiang Fei then started stuffing supplies into the refrigerator and cabinets.

The bedding was also replaced with new ones.

She and Xiao Hua Lao would sleep in the bed, Lu Yu on the sofa bed, with a privacy curtain in between, so there would be no worries about privacy.

After Lu Yu and Xiao Chuxia finished moving their luggage, there was still plenty of time, so everyone went back to catch up on sleep.

At 6:00 PM, as Jiang Fei and the other two were about to get into the car and depart, a familiar voice called out.

"Wait! Don't leave yet!"
