I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 229 He Doesn't Look Like a Bad Person

229 He Doesn’t Look Like a Bad Person

Du Yue nodded. “Alright. However, I’ve observed their every move just now, and they don’t seem like bad people.”

After the apocalypse, Du Yue had dealt with all kinds of people, so she had her own way of judging people.

As the man had said, the base was not far away. He Xing drove slowly behind them and arrived in less than five minutes. When they arrived at the base’s entrance, the first thing they saw were two large iron gates. Judging from the structure of the iron gates, they were not even as st.u.r.dy as the gate of the small house where Du Yue and He Xing used to live. As the base’s gates, they were indeed a little shabby.

A few men walked to the gates and greeted the people inside. Soon, someone appeared and opened the gates for them. The man from earlier continued to lead the way in front. He drove them into the base and finally stopped beside a row of cars. As soon as Du Yue and He Xing got out of the car, the man came up to them with a simple and honest face. “We’re here. Our base used to be a seafood processing plant. After the apocalypse, it became a base. After you’ve settled down, you can look for me if you need anything. My name is Wan Dapeng. You can just call me Dapeng.”

“That won’t do! Big Brother, I can tell that you’re older than us. We’ll call you ‘Big Brother Peng’ from now on!” He Xing said with a serious face.

Wan Dapeng smiled honestly. “That works too. You’re just over 20 this year, and I’m 30 this year, so it’s appropriate for you to call me ‘Big Brother’.”

Du Yue had been standing at the side in silence, but when she heard this, she could not help but laugh.

He was exactly 30 years old this year? He Xing was already 34 years old! As expected, one could not guess his age based on his appearance. In fact, He Xing should be the big brother! Du Yue suddenly laughed, causing Wan Dapeng to be dumbfounded. “Did I say something wrong?”

Du Yue waved her hands and stopped laughing. “Big Brother, he’s no longer a 20-year-old child.”

When Wan Dapeng heard this, he did not care much. “It’s okay. Even if he’s not 20, he’s still a young man! If this was before the apocalypse, you guys would still be in school reading textbooks! And now… Sigh, let’s not talk about these useless things. You must be quite tired from the journey. I’ll take you to your rooms first!”

Du Yue and He Xing agreed. They each took a mountaineering bag from the car and carried it on their backs, then followed Wan Dapeng to their living quarters. The seafood processing plant was quite large. Wan Dapeng quickly took them to a three-story building and opened the door on the far right on the first floor. “This used to be the factory’s staff dormitory, so it’s pretty clean. After this place was turned into a hotel, we all moved out.”

As they spoke, they had already entered the room. Wan Dapeng turned on the switch at the door, and as the lights turned on, everything in the room could be seen clearly. Du Yue was surprised. “There’s still electricity here?”

Wan Dapeng nodded. “Yeah! We’re close to the sea, so the wind power station and the water power station can be operated. Although our base is relatively small, we don’t have to worry about electricity. Although it took a lot of effort to get the electricity, life with electricity is indeed much more convenient.”

After listening to Wan Dapeng’s explanation, Du Yue immediately came to a realization. This place was close to the sea, so they did not have to worry about electricity. After all, the water and wind power stations were enough to supply all the bases in the city. From the looks of it, a superior geographical environment would indeed bring a lot of convenience to people’s lives.

No wonder the base was chosen to be here. In her previous life, she had no electricity and no water because the base she was in was not good?

“Alright, I won’t disturb you any further. You can rest!” After a simple introduction, Wan Dapeng turned around and left.

He Xing closed the door after saying goodbye to him. The curtains in the room were drawn. After the door was closed, He Xing turned off the lights in the room.

After a quick check to make sure there were no surveillance or audio devices in the room, He Xing turned on the lights again. The room was rather small. Other than two single beds and a square table placed at the door, there was nothing else. The two single beds were bare wooden beds. Not to mention bedding, there was not even a mattress. Du Yue was a little helpless. It was just that the current situation was special. If it had been before the apocalypse, such an environment would probably not have attracted a single guest in a year.
