Chapter 206
Chapter 206
Hearing Director Mom's words and seeing the still earth pit, Yun Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows.
If the other party was a good zombie who didn't harm people but only protected those they cared about, she really wouldn't know how to bring herself to kill it.
Humans have good and bad, and so do zombies.
Although the probability is very, very small, small doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Glancing at the earth pit once more, Yun Xiaoxiao silently withdrew her hand.
With a major threat resolved, everyone at the orphanage breathed a sigh of relief.
However, their gaze towards Yun Xiaoxiao had completely changed.
"Xiaoxiao, how are you so amazing? Even more powerful than Ultraman in the cartoons!"
Tian Tian approached Yun Xiaoxiao, full of admiration.
"That ice just now was so cool!"
Yinuo and a few other kids also gathered around.
They almost treated Yun Xiaoxiao like a little star.
Seeing the group of people laughing and playing together, Director Mom also smiled warmly.
"Today, let's have a good meal. Come on, let's cook."
"Director Mom, are we having meat today?"
"Yes."
"Can we have eggs too?"
"Yes."
"Oh yeah, that's great!"
The little ones were the most excited.
Everyone else couldn't help but smile along.
The unpleasantness from earlier was swept away.
During dinner, Yun Xiaoxiao asked everyone if they wanted to leave and mentioned a better place where they could live.
But everyone looked at each other, seemingly reluctant.
"Xiaoxiao, I know you mean well, but we've lived here for so long, and we don't have any plans to leave for now."
Director Mom smiled gently, voicing the thoughts of everyone.
"We think this place is pretty good, with mountains and water. We've planted vegetables and raised chickens and ducks. If we want meat, we can go fishing.
We're also planning to cultivate the land outside and plant some grains.
Now that those bad guys are gone, this place is quite safe.
So, you don't need to worry about us. We're doing fine here.
Most importantly..."
She glanced towards the direction of the gate, smiling softly without continuing.
But Yun Xiaoxiao could hear what she was thinking.
She was thinking: Little Xin and the others are still outside. If we leave, what will happen to them?
For their choice, Yun Xiaoxiao chose to respect it.
Inviting them was merely out of her appreciation for their good character. Whether they went or not was their freedom.
She didn't force them.
But she still kindly reminded them, as a return for their hospitality.
"I hear the weather will get very cold soon. You should prepare accordingly."
Although they didn't quite understand why Yun Xiaoxiao said that, Director Mom and the others still kept it in mind.
The next morning, when they learned that Yun Xiaoxiao was leaving, everyone was very reluctant.
"Can't you stay?" Tian Tian pouted.
Huanhuan also said, "Yeah, stay with us."
Yun Xiaoxiao shook her head, "I still have some things to take care of. I'll visit you again if I get the chance."
Tian Tian and the others immediately looked glum.
In their hearts, they thought that once Yun Xiaoxiao left, she might never come back.
Although they hadn't experienced the dangers outside, just looking at the dock at the foot of the mountain was enough to know.
Even though Yun Xiaoxiao was powerful, it wouldn't be easy for her to come and go as she pleased.
For what everyone was thinking, Yun Xiaoxiao wanted to say:
She had a plane and could go anywhere she wanted.
It wouldn't take long to get from Rong City to here.
But she didn't explain much. Some things don't need words; seeing is believing.
She took out a small wireless radio from her backpack and handed it to Director Mom.
"If you run into trouble, you can leave a message on this. Mention Blue Ocean Kindergarten, and I'll come if I know."
Her serious expression made Director Mom chuckle.
She took it and pursed her lips.
"Alright, but we're not very good with these things. Can you teach us how to use it?"
"Sure."
Yun Xiaoxiao started fiddling with it.
This method was also taught to her by Lu Chen.
While tuning the frequency, she heard the self-narration of that man who called himself the most manly man at sea.
He was glad he hadn't been struck by lightning, blown away by the wind, or drowned by the water.
Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that his location seemed not too far from here.
She recalled that he had mentioned he was at an oilfield development area at sea.
Yun Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow; her next destination was decided.
After teaching Director Mom and the others, Yun Xiaoxiao formally said her goodbyes.
Tang Lu even offered to see her off, but she declined.
So, everyone had to watch her leave.
Yun Xiaoxiao walked until they couldn't see her anymore before teleporting away.
Finding a secluded spot, she took out the helicopter.
Then, she flew along the coastline according to the map on her phone.
This map was one she had downloaded before the apocalypse.
She had downloaded maps of the entire country, each province, each city, and even some towns.
It turned out to be a very wise decision.
This trip to gather supplies had been greatly aided by it.
After flying for a long time, Yun Xiaoxiao finally spotted a landmark.
Immediately, she changed direction and flew towards the sea.
At that moment.
On an oil drilling platform at sea.
A man wrapped in a military coat was lying in a slouched position on a low platform.
Even though the platform was covered in moss and was dirty, he didn't care.
He reached out to pick his nose and yawned lazily.
Suddenly, the fishing rod trembled slightly. His action of picking his nose paused, and he quickly sat up.
He chuckled and rubbed his palms.
"Here it comes!"
He picked up the fishing rod and pulled it up.
Seeing it was just a small fish, his interest waned.
He took the fish off and threw it back into the sea.
"Go find your mom. Remember, don't bite my bait before you grow up, okay? Be a good and sensible fish. Go call your uncles and aunts; they've grown up and can be eaten."
He muttered to himself.
If the fish could understand human speech, it would surely roll its eyes and curse loudly, "You big idiot."
He re-baited the hook and threw the line back into the sea.
Then, he lay down again, bored out of his mind.
"The sky is so blue today..."
Aliali: 6754d302bd5e46c308a67379He rested his hands behind his head, crossed his legs, and gazed at the sky.
Suddenly, he sat up straight, rubbed his eyes, and stared at the sky not far away.
Convinced it wasn't an illusion, he was overjoyed.
There was a helicopter!
Heavens, how long had it been since he last saw a plane!
He had only seen them at the very beginning of the apocalypse.
But those planes either flew too high and disappeared or fell into the deep sea under his gaze.
After that, he hadn't seen any planes in this area.
This helicopter was flying so steadily, which meant there must be someone inside!
Realizing this, the man became excited.
