It's been a long time...
Shen Mo was a little helpless, and sighed softly.
He went to the bed to help Bai Youwei pack up the pile of clothes, the cans for drinking water on the table, the folding crutches leaning against the corner of the bed... All of them were put away, and then he reached out and pushed her.
Bai Youwei grabbed his wrist and looked up at him with a small face, her clear black pupil with an exploratory look.
Shen Mo didn't speak.
Her fingers slid down gently, sliding into his palm, generous and warm, and she scratched the slightly rough calluses on his fingertips restlessly.
"Hey, talk." She smiled innocently, with bad jokes in her innocence, "Do you need me to give you another chance?"
Shen Mo pulled out his hand, ignoring her provocation (cramping), firmly holding the wheelchair and pushing her out—
This time, the delicate Bai Youwei didn't lose her temper again, she just snorted coldly.
Later, Shen Mo took her into the passenger seat, probably because she was really sleepy, she fell asleep not long after the SUV drove.
Tan Xiao sat in the back seat with Mr. Cheng.
Further back, the trunk was full of luggage and food, and there were two buckets full of tap water, and the windy motorcycle was left at the toll booth reluctantly.
And just like that, the group set off again.
…
From Zhenjiang to Yangzhou, it takes only about 30 minutes to pass through the Runyang Bridge, but Shen Mo's car is getting slower and slower.
Because along the way, they did not see half a figure.
so quiet...
It was as if all life forms had evaporated out of thin air.
Cities shouldn't be like that.
The water of the Yangtze River is rolling, no boats can be seen on the river, but only the sound of the wind on the bridge.
The car continued to drive forward, and occasionally a few cars could be seen on the side of the road, but there were no people or dolls inside.
The scorching sun is in the sky, the earth is scorched by the scorching sun, but everyone's heart seems to be soaked in ice water, and a burst of coolness rises.
No one knew where the people in the city went.
Shen Mo, who was driving, became more and more cautious. While driving along the street, he observed the surrounding situation. He stared out of the car window even for the most escapist chat and jokes, and did not dare to come out.
According to the original plan, they had to send Teacher Cheng to Jiangyang Middle Road first.
However, as they approached their destination, they encountered heavy fog.
Yes, it is the most common type of fog in autumn and winter.
White, rich, and confused, it appeared out of time on a sunny day, and covered all streets and buildings, making it impossible for them to see the road ahead.
The fog was so strange that Shen Mo didn't get close. He changed his route and drove slowly along the edge of the white fog.
They circled Yangzhou City for most of the time, but they didn't see a single one! Streets, shops, squares, parks, hospitals… everywhere, no one!
What about people
Is it all hidden
Hiding in the fog
Do they want to go in too
Is there any danger in the fog? How did this fog appear
There is no answer.
Teacher Cheng remembered his ten-year-old father and mother, his hands clenched tightly and his expression solemn.
Tan Xiao panicked for the first time in his heart and asked, "What should we do?"
Shen Mo held the steering wheel, turned in front, and said solemnly, "Go to the supermarket first."
Talking and laughing was even more dazed: "Are you looking for something to eat? But the trunk is full..."
"I'm looking for someone." Bai Youwei closed her eyes and leaned against the back of her chair calmly, "Yangzhou is one of the rumored safe cities, not only to settle the residents of this city, but also to accept a large number of people from other places who came to take refuge, it stands to reason It should be overcrowded, and food will become scarce accordingly, the supermarket is the place where people need to frequent the most, and there may be clues if you go there and look."
"Yes, I'm going to the supermarket to see..." Teacher Cheng wiped the corners of his eyes and nodded vigorously, "I know a large supermarket, not too far ahead."
