Chapter 113: Chapter 113 A Province Border

“Sister Xiao Jin, it seems like some people are coming up behind us,” Mao Qiqi said while eating an apple from the fruit platter.

Tch, what a hassle, Su Jin frowned, but fortunately they had just finished their meal.

Having stored the tables, chairs, and other items in their space, they weren’t planning on seeing who those people mentioned by Qiqi were, and instead prepared to get in their car and leave.

“Ah, I was actually hoping to take a walk after dinner,” Lin Xiuyuan said leaning against the car, but it didn’t really matter, he could just stroll inside his space later.

However, they hadn’t anticipated that the group of people would arrive so quickly.

A bus had arrived, its windshield smeared with dried blood and its bus number 653 just barely visible, with some horrifying bloody handprints on the side windows—how they got there was anyone’s guess.

Su Jin and the others didn’t pay any attention and just drove forward.

At first, it was all right to have just one road, for the bus to follow behind them wasn’t too much to complain about, but after they had turned a few corners and noticed the bus trailed behind them still, it began to feel strange.

“Looks like these people want to follow us,” Su Xiangzhe remarked as he looked at the rearview mirror.

“Qiqi, can you see how many of them there are?” Lu Hao asked.

“About 15 people,” Mao Qiqi replied.

“Let’s ignore them and just follow our planned route,” Su Jin said to the other two cars about the current situation.

Su Xiangzhe nodded and continued driving forward.

In the bus behind them, a slightly shorter girl complained, “Why won’t they just stop and say hello to us?”

“Xiao Xue, don’t be upset. If we keep following them, they have to stop to rest at some point,” a boy with a face full of acne consoled her.

The people on the bus, having heard their conversation, also felt that the three cars ahead should indeed stop and say hello or something — after all, they hadn’t had much to eat for two days. Every mealtime, Sun Yixue would take a pack of biscuits from her space, distributing only three pieces to each person.

Sun Yixue was the short girl who had complained about the three cars not stopping; she was a Space Element Ability User and held a high status among the people, although she was neither capable of fighting zombies nor killing mutant animals, and even too lazy to partake in any carrying activities. But, no one dared to offend her.

Simply because she was a Space Element Ability User, their loot was stored in her space. Last time because a plump girl questioned her, she was punished by Sun Yixue by not being given food for two meals, which nearly caused the girl to faint during a fight with the zombies.

The acne-faced boy was originally the plump girl’s boyfriend, but somehow, he became Sun Yixue’s advocate, doing odd jobs for her and even willingly washing her clothes.

Tch, tch, if this were before the Apocalypse, he would definitely be despised by everyone’s spittle, but now, in the Apocalypse, such people are instead seen as normal because everyone is trying to survive, to fill their bellies.

Thinking this, Zheng Miaomiao’s lips curled in a smirk. She was the plump girl from earlier, but now one could hardly tell; following these people for half a month had slimmed down the weight she hadn’t managed to lose in the past eight years.

Dieting, ah, Zheng Miaomiao thought optimistically, and at the same time, she saw the true nature of a scumbag. Originally, she and he were dating with marriage in view, but when the Apocalypse struck, three years of dating became worthless. If it weren’t for her family’s objection, calling him a phoenix man, she would have married him long ago.

Fortunately, they hadn’t married yet. However, she and her parents had lost contact and she had no idea how they were now. The reason she still stayed with this group was because their destination was City S, where her hometown was.

At this moment, their vehicle was still following the three ahead, and Zheng Miaomiao couldn’t help but feel sympathy for those in front; ensnared by this group of vampires, it wouldn’t be easy to shake them off.

Further ahead was the urban district of Province A. They were taking the outer ring roads as much as possible to avoid the inner city, even if it meant detouring, but no matter how much they detoured, they were bound to pass through some densely populated areas.

Mao Qiqi had already noticed the situation up ahead. From the sparse red dots, it seemed to be a residential area. Sister Xiao Jin had said that as long as it wasn’t a large swarm of zombies, there shouldn’t be any problems, but she still shared her findings with the others in the vehicle.

Su Jin nodded and just asked the driver, Su Xiangzhe, to be careful. Lu Hao also picked up the walkie-talkie to inform the two vehicles behind them about the situation.

Huang Yunxiang glanced at the time. Lin Xiuyuan and the others had been in the Space for about two or three hours. She planned to go in and call them out to avoid being discovered not in the vehicle later. After giving Lin Cheng a heads-up, Huang Yunxiang also entered the Space.

Lin Xiuyuan was leisurely lying on a lounge chair in front of the Lu Residence, napping. Huang Yunxiang shook her head, grabbed his ear, and dragged him up.

“You young man were supposed to be training, so why are you lazing around again?”

“Mom? How did you come in? Is there a situation?”

“We’re about to enter the urban area, I’m calling you out to be on guard.”

Nie Qing and Lu Guanhai also came out upon hearing the news, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief that it wasn’t a danger outside, then left the Space together.

“Fainting, why is that vehicle still following us?” Lin Xiuyuan asked.

“Who knows, Xiao Jin told us to ignore them, regardless of them,” Huang Yunxiang said irritably. No matter how they detoured, those people still followed.

“Could it be they are trying to set us up?” Lu Guanhai also speculated.

“Set us up? What does that mean?” Nie Qing was puzzled; he had been understanding more and more words lately, but every now and then some phrases were still completely new to him.

“Uncle Nie, ‘set us up’ means they want to impose on us,” Lin Xiuyuan explained with a smile.

“Are there really such shameless people?”

Nie Qing’s eyes widened in disbelief at the decline of moral standards.

“Miss Sun, should we continue following them? They are about to enter the urban area,” asked Old Li, the bus driver. He had been finding it quite challenging to keep up, worried about losing them and being scolded by Sun Yixue.

“Keep following! I refuse to believe they won’t stop eventually.”

She was really interested in these three vehicles. From the license plates and the cars, they gave her the impression that the occupants were either rich or noble. And, being a Space Element Ability User, she would surely be better off winning the favor of these people rather than sticking with her current group.

Among their group, a middle-aged man had awakened his Earth Element Ability, and there was Zheng Miaomiao’s Water Ability, but she felt these were insignificant. Every encounter with zombies cost them a few people. With fewer and fewer people left, who would protect her?
