At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the golden sunshine fell on the earth, as if the whole world was rimmed with gold. It was so beautiful that it almost didn't look like a scene in the apocalypse.

The workers working outside the base, covered in sweat, were discussing with each other what to eat for dinner today.

People depend on food, especially in the last days. For them, nothing is more important than food.

They are all criminals sent from neighboring urban areas for rehabilitation. Since they are being reformed, no matter how much work they do, they will not get points.

However, the base does not want them to starve to death, so it will provide them with two meals a day.

In the last days, forget about eating enough. Those two meals will at most give them strength to work and prevent them from dying from overwork.

But even so, they are much luckier than many survivors.

At least they get food if they put in the effort.

There are many people in this world who are starving to death.

After a day's work, everyone was panting from exhaustion, and the movements of their hands were unconsciously a little slower.

The supervisor next to him saw it and didn't say anything. He couldn't really treat people as the donkeys of the production team, as long as they could complete their daily tasks.

The base has plans to take in existing survivors in nearby urban areas. Although the current base occupies a lot of space, it is still not enough to accommodate so many survivors, so this group of criminals is fully booked every day.

One of the workers licked his dry lips and swallowed hard, feeling very hot all over.

Since the beginning of the day, the base has been in a state of water shortage.

No, it should be said that all areas that have experienced extreme daylight are severely short of water.

The base has no intention of starving them to death, and will give them a corresponding share every day.

But how could that little water be drinkable?

The drier his mouth became, the more he couldn't help but recall the past.

At that time, there were all kinds of iced drinks, ice cream, juice, beer...

I don’t know when the world will return to normal?

Thinking of this, he sighed and continued loading bricks on the cart.

Like everyone else, he was sent to the base for transformation.

Speaking of which, the crime he committed was not serious. He did not commit murder or robbery. He was just caught stealing something.

At first, he complained about everything, thinking that he was unlucky. Otherwise, there were so many vicious criminals, so why was he the only one who was so unlucky to be caught?

He complained about the end of the world, complained about God, and complained about all the people who had a better life than him.

But after he got used to working here, he didn't know whether it was because he was too tired, so he no longer complained during his free time.

I even think it's good to stay here.

Although they were a little tired, at least they were not starving to death. Watching the base being built bit by bit by their hands, I felt a sense of accomplishment.

After all, he also grew up under the red flag. If possible, who wouldn't want to be a good person?

He was asking a coworker next to him to push the cart with him, but when he raised his head, he saw a man and a woman coming out of the base gate not far away. They were carrying some packages on their backs, and the woman was holding a three-year-old boy in her arms. boys, look like a family of three.

Why do you say it looks like, huh, there are really too many disgusting things in the last days, and the order is on the verge of collapse, let alone public order and good customs.

Nowadays, nothing is weird for people.

The worker was holding the trolley, his eyes filled with confusion. He really didn't understand what kind of development this was.

It looks like it's almost night time, why are you running out now?

Moreover, everyone knows how difficult it is to enter the base, so why would anyone want to come out of the base?

Not to mention that they have a small child with them, aren't they afraid of any accidents?

Of course, he was not the only one with sharp eyes. Many workers saw it and started talking to each other in low voices.

Those who can be rehabilitated here are basically not serious criminals. They may be a little conflicted at first, but after such a long time, they work and eat together every day, and even get along with each other a little bit.

But in the final analysis, these things had nothing to do with them, and everyone stopped chatting.

But to everyone's surprise, not long after the family of three left, two men and two women appeared at the gate of the base.

Now everyone could no longer suppress the surprise in their hearts.

What exactly is going on? Why did both of them run outside today?

Are there any treasures out there?

And the two men and women who left for the second time looked even more difficult to deal with.

Just by looking at their clothes, you can tell how good their lives will be in the last days.

But thinking about it, those who can live in the base now are not only rich but also talented people with good minds. It is normal for them to live a good life.

In just a short time, all the workers were attracted by the two waves of survivors who left one after another.

The supervisor frowned: "Do you still want to eat if you continue to linger for a while?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately stopped whispering and their hands moved faster.

At this time, Li Liangxian and the others had already gone far away.

Along the way, Li Liangxian had a dark face.

He didn't dare to show it at the base for fear that the staff would think he was dissatisfied, but now he has no scruples.

He had been wondering in his mind before, who reported him?

Yes, he firmly believed that someone reported him.

Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for me to have lived here for so long without any incident, and now I would be suddenly turned upside down.

But even if he tried hard, he still couldn't figure out who the person who stabbed him in the back was.

I can't figure it out, so I can only put this problem in the back of my mind.

After all, he has now left the base. Even if he knows the truth, he can't take revenge immediately.

However, he was indeed not as panicked as he appeared.

When he entered the base, he prepared an escape route for himself nearby.

Originally, he just wanted to have peace of mind and didn't think it would be needed, but he didn't expect that it would actually come in handy now.

With those supplies, it was enough for him to make a temporary transition outside the base.

He only needs to wait until survivors from other cities flood into the base. At that time, he can find a way to sneak in again.

There was no way, even he had to admit that in the end of the world, staying at the base was the safest.

However, by that time, this kind of single-family courtyard will definitely not exist.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a surge of evil fire in his heart. If he didn't want to hold it back, he could only find someone to vent his anger on.

So he turned to look at the woman holding the child who was moving slowly, and scolded: "Did you not eat? Are you so slow?"

When the woman heard the scolding, the expression on her face did not change at all, as if there was no dissatisfaction or complaint at all, and her feet quickly accelerated.

Speaking of which, she should be the person who knows Li Liangxian best. She can tell what Li Liangxian is thinking just by looking at him.

She had long known that this man was not as gentle as he appeared on the surface, otherwise he would not have left his wife who had been with her for so many years alone not long after the end of the world began.

I don’t know if that woman is still alive? But there is a high probability that he is dead.

She didn't know why Li Liangxian was suddenly kicked out of the base. Of course, she didn't want to know. None of this mattered to her.

All she needs to do is take her child and be a humble vase.

In fact, when she was preparing to leave, she had not thought about begging the soldiers for permission to stay at the base with her children.

But looking at the expressions of those soldiers and the uneasiness that Li Liangxian couldn't hide on his face, she knew that this request would not be granted.

She knew Li Liangxian very well. Although he looked panicked on the surface, if he really had no confidence at all, he wouldn't be like this.

So, in the end, she decided to follow this man first.

After all, he would not treat his precious son badly.

As for yourself?

From the moment she decided to follow this man, she was ready.

Isn't it just that she won't fight back when hit or scolded? As long as she can survive, she can endure anything.
