Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 -Two Hundred and Fourteen: Protect Them Completely

The next day, as both of them needed to rush to the Refuge, Lu Hao and Su Jin got up early. Liang Jiuhui had even arranged a driver and a car for them, and the driver was considerately waiting at their villa’s front door.

“Good morning,”

Lu Hao and Su Jin both greeted the driver politely.

Driver Jiao was somewhat surprised. Liang Jiuhui had told him that the two individuals he was to pick up today were both formidable Special Ability Users and that they were to escort today’s Survivors being relocated.

However, he hadn’t expected these two individuals to be so young and to be a handsome man and beautiful woman. What mattered most was that both young people greeted him politely without a hint of condescension.

Good morning… This greeting, which had been so common before the Apocalypse, made Driver Jiao feel for a moment as if he had returned to a peaceful morning from before the world’s end.

“Good morning, my surname is Jiao; you can call me Driver Jiao,”

Driver Jiao said to the two sitting in the back.

“Hello, my name is Lu Hao, and this is my wife, Su Jin,” Lu Hao replied politely.

Driver Jiao nodded, his impression of the two young people improving even further.

For convenience today, Su Jin had specifically carried a backpack. Unlike before, they couldn’t recklessly take things out in the car. Carrying a backpack would help them conceal the existence of the Space if they needed to quickly use something.

The car slowly exited the base’s main gate. Along the way, it was evident that Driver Jiao must have frequently traveled this route; he took paths where Zombies appeared the least. Still, he kept his eyes peeled outside, not daring to be careless.

For some reason, the closer they got to their destination, the more pressure Su Jin felt. It was only now, as they were about to arrive, that she realized the enormity of the task she had so easily accepted the day before—they were to ensure the safety of more than five hundred people!

Following yesterday’s incident, the Refuge had decided to relocate fewer people today, but even so, there were still over five hundred Survivors.

As the saying goes, with pressure comes motivation, and a sense of mission welled up within her.

Today, no matter what, they had to ensure the safety of these people!

Inside the Refuge, Liang Wei watched Li Haochu, who was still at his work post. He seemed to be commanding his subordinates in an orderly fashion, but the fatigue in his eyes and the wrinkles between his brows revealed that he was not in a good state.

“Old Li, take a break,” Liang Wei sighed.

Seeing Shao Zian taking a tally of people with a list, Li Haochu nodded and sat down heavily in a deserted stand.

Liang Wei also sat down, looked ahead, and said, “I will definitely give you an explanation for Ah Feng’s incident.”

At the mention of this name, Li Haochu immediately had tears in his eyes. Ah Feng was the Metal Element Ability User who led the team yesterday. He had been with Li Haochu since before the Apocalypse and had fortunately awakened his Metal Element Ability after it. Li Haochu had come to regard Ah Feng almost like a son, and it was unthinkable that such an incident had occurred the day before.

“Ah Feng’s death is too wrong. I want to clear his name as soon as possible,” Li Haochu said with a choke in his voice.

Because of the total annihilation of the team and Survivors, Ah Feng was practically being labeled a sinner through the ages. Sometimes, Li Haochu felt relieved that he was already dead; otherwise, if he could hear how the entire Refuge’s Survivors were cursing him as a villain—even his ancestors—it would be worse than death.

Although Li Haochu had tried to explain to those angry Survivors, without evidence, no one was willing to believe him.

If only they could find evidence, at least Ah Feng wouldn’t have died wrongfully.

“Don’t worry, we will definitely find it. Jiuhui has already started investigating,” Liang Wei said, patting Li Haochu’s shoulder to comfort him.

At this moment, Peng Qi ran over and said something to Liang Wei. Liang Wei immediately stood up after hearing it.
