"Why are they coming to us?" Bai iyue asked with a frown on her face. As far as she knew, the second branch did not get along with the first branch of the Lei family. In fact, she was quite positively reassured that the people from the second branch particularly despised the people from the first branch. The fact that they tried to sche against Lei Qian and wanted him to work for soone like Yu Miaomiao without a worry or care about what would happen to Lei Qian if he were to join the safe base under Yu Miaomiao’s wing.
And that was not all. Even though there were enough supernatural ability users who could grow crops such as vegetables and rice, and with the antidote to treat the poison in the mutated animals, if they wanted, they would be able to raise a few hundred extra people with ease. There was no trouble in raising these people at all.
But the problem was that if she were to take in these people today, then not only would she take a bunch of ingrates who would sche against her and Lei Qian every day and every turn. And that was not all; if they were to take in these people today, then there would be another batch. Did these people think that she had opened a shelter where anyone could enter without any worries?
Moreover, they were in a situation where they did not even know when their own base would fall into a crisis. Given that these people were sent here by Bai Feng, there was a good chance that they were left behind by Chief Luo. Since that was the case, these people were more or less useless and had no ability to work. What was the point of bringing a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings into her safe base?
Though she had kept a few orphans and the elderly, they were not people who did not know their positions. They worked hard and even made sure that they were earning their keep. But these people who stayed in the base run by Yu Miaomiao were different. First of all, these survivors were the ones who abandoned and ran away from her safe base, which naturally ant that these people were the ones who were lazy in the first place, and she kicked them out as a result of their laziness. Secondly, since they ran away, naturally, they would not focus their attention on working hard again. Since that was the case, why would she bother bringing these people inside her safe base again?
And that wasn’t all, she knew that these people might include so spies. If she allowed them to enter her safe base without any investigation, there was a very good chance that there would be chaos, and these survivors were not the only ones who would cause chaos. If she brought such people inside her safe base, then the people in the safe base would be in just as much chaos. After all, the order that they had set was not sothing that could be attained in just a few days; this was sothing that she achieved after working harder than ever for weeks and days.
How many months did it take before they could even settle down in this safe base?
Not a single mont of carelessness could be allowed to happen.
The voices that were coming from outside the safe base started to get louder and louder. The more one listened to it, the more they realised that the people outside had started to curse and even yelled at Bai iyue for being heartless. They even called her all kinds of nas, saying that there was sothing wrong with her for ignoring them like this. The mutated bugs would soon arrive at the safe base, and the zombie king was also slowly approaching them.
If Bai iyue did not save them right now, then who would do it?
Bai Jixuan’s eyes flashed with a hint of anger in them, and he couldn’t believe that these people were speaking all kinds of nonsense just because they couldn’t get what they wanted. He stepped forward and roared, "Step back, Yueyue. I will make sure to straighten up these people." Just because his sister did not give these people a place to stay, they actually made such a ruckus!
"There is no need to go there, Second Brother." Bai iyue caught her brother’s hand and shook her head. She said to him, "Since they want to talk with them, then I will go and see what they want to talk to about."
"Where do you think you are going?" asked Yan Wanning when she saw Bai iyue heading toward the watchtower. She imdiately stopped her daughter and said to her, "Young lady, you just love to run out every ti you see so excitent; you haven’t eaten your breakfast yet. How could you run amok? Even if you are not hungry, my grandson is hungry. You should eat sothing before causing trouble."
Yan Wanning walked over and then handed Bai iyue an egg roll. She said to her, "No matter how uncaring you are, you should never ignore the needs of your child. First, eat sothing and then go and deal with whatever you want to do."
"Don’t forget that if people are machines, then rice is their fuel."
"I know, I know!"
Bai iyue imdiately grabbed the egg roll that her mother had handed to her and took a bite from it. She made sure that her mother saw her eat it, or else she was worried that her mother wouldn’t let her go. Once she had eaten two bites, she turned around on her feet and walked toward the entrance of the safe base with Bai Jixuan. When the two of them arrived at the watchtower that was right next to the main entrance, the two of them heard the screams and yells of the crowd. Bai iyue frowned and walked up the watchtower, and when she looked down, the large crowd made her brows jump in the air.
