I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 270 Looking for a Car

270 Looking for a Car

There was no one nearby, so Du Yue simply took out a tent that had been a.s.sembled.

“You sleep first. I’ll keep watch for the first half of the night.”

No matter where they were, He Xing would usually let Du Yue sleep first if there was a need to keep watch. Du Yue took out her phone and set an alarm.

“Sure, I’ll take over the second half of the night.” In this regard, Du Yue and He Xing had never been polite to each other.

If she did not rest well, it would affect her entire journey. If they had the time to give in to each other, they might as well take the time to sleep a little longer. The night pa.s.sed very quietly. Early the next morning, Du Yue watched the sky gradually brighten. The thick fog in front of her had also receded from the darkness of the night, revealing the original thick white.

Du Yue stretched out her hand and grabbed something in the air. Mist curled around her fingertips, and her fingers were faintly visible. Just as she was playing, Du Yue heard the sound of the tent opening behind her. She turned around and saw He Xing walking out. Du Yue kept the tent in her inters.p.a.ce. The two of them washed up and had a simple breakfast before they continued to look for a car.

He Xing had a good sense of direction. Even though the thick fog had obscured his vision, the surrounding buildings had been washed away by the waves. After walking around a few times, he was able to tell if they had taken this road based on the situation on both sides. The two of them walked for the entire morning before they finally found the parking lot where they had parked their car.

There were many cars in the parking lot, but not a single one could be seen now. They had all been washed away by the tsunami. Now, they only needed to determine the direction of the sea and go over there to find He Xing’s car.

Du Yue and He Xing took a few more steps forward and heard people talking in front of them. There was more than one person, so they had no idea what was going on. The two of them looked at each other and did not say anything, but they continued to walk forward in unison. After walking for about 50 meters, they saw an army green pickup truck. There was a strong light on the top of the truck, which clearly illuminated the area within five meters of the front of the truck.

When Du Yue and the others arrived, there were already many people surrounding the place. Everyone was talking to the man at the front of the car. The questions came one after another, and the man was obviously overwhelmed. In the end, it was another man standing beside them who patted the car and used his voice to silence the group of people.

“Everyone, please calm down. The base will definitely take responsibility for everyone. Now, the base has been washed away by the tsunami, and no one knows whether the tsunami will strike again. So we can no longer live in this place. The chief of the base has decided to take everyone inland. It must be much safer than here! I came here to inform you of the news. Please go home and pack your luggage. Tomorrow morning, we’ll be at the gate of the inner city of the base. We’ll gather there.”

After hearing the man’s words, the surrounding people were quiet for a moment, then they became even noisier. One after another, they were even noisier than before. “How are we going to move inland?”

“Are there that many cars in the base?”

“What do we eat and drink on the way? Are we going to share the base with everyone?”

“Where are we moving to?”

“But if we move inland, we can’t go out to sea to fish anymore. Without income, how are we going to survive?”

“I have a lot of things at home. Can the base a.s.sign me a car?”

Du Yue stood outside the crowd, listening to their questions one after another. She felt her head throb. After listening for a while, the two of them immediately decided to turn around and leave. They had already heard the useful information, so it was more important to find their car first. Unfortunately, it was not easy to find their car. They saw two similar-looking cars in succession, but when they got closer, they did not seem to be their car.

Fortunately, Du Yue and He Xing were both patient people. Although they had not found their car yet, they were not in a hurry. After a long time, they finally found it. The car had been completely turned over. The body of the car was stained with mud and sand, and there were many scratches. Some parts of its body had probably been hit by a hard object, so they had caved in. Since there was no one around, Du Yue put the car into her inters.p.a.ce.

Du Yue could control everything in the inters.p.a.ce with her mind. She could flip the car over effortlessly and take it out. The car landed steadily. Although it looked a little worn out, it did not affect its use.
