The Last Plant Controller

"There are many kinds of news. "

Lin Chen recalled it carefully for a while, and then said: "What do you want to know most?"

Qian Xu had probably thought about it a long time ago. After hearing Lin Chen's question, he said without hesitation: "Of course it's about zombies, or whether the central government has made any new decisions or something like that."

"Three days ago, the central government issued a notice about the continuous emergence of zombie animals. Yesterday at noon, the central radio station issued a warning that zombies may have started a second round of evolution, but when will it be completed? What is the proportion of evolved zombies in the total number, etc. There is no conclusion, and no evolved entity has been found yet. Also at noon yesterday, Songping Base announced that a wave of more than 50,000 corpses had been completely eliminated..."

After talking about five or six things intermittently, Lin Chen stopped and found that there was nothing left to say.

"The situation is not good."

After hearing Lin Chen's words, Qian Xu's expression became serious. Although he has not encountered zombie animals yet, he has seen zombies that have evolved once. Now the zombies may be evolving again, which makes him very worried.

Having said that, Lin Chen's expression was similar to Qian Xu's when he first learned the news.

"By the way, our provincial capital Andu has finally decided to adopt a rescue plan."

This is the news I just received yesterday!

As the capital of a large province, Lin Chen was dissatisfied with the delayed response from Andu's top management. It was half a month after the crisis occurred before they made a decision. I don’t know how many people died in vain during this period.

"It's indeed slow enough."

Feng Jianguo echoed indignantly.

"There is no need for us to worry about the matters above. It will be good if they are willing to send troops."

Qian Xu looked like he had been used to it for a long time. He had probably seen a lot of dark things in his years as a prison guard.

"Hmph, none of these officials are really good." Feng Jianguo seemed to be irritated by this incident, and he cursed rather rudely, barely gritting his teeth.

Shi Xuanxuan looked at him a little strangely, not understanding why this young man's reaction was so big.

Qian Xu understood very well. He smiled and explained: "On the second day after the power outage, our warden took one of his men and drove away. At that time, the only car in the detention center that was intact and full of gas was , even the radio in the car was gone. He meant to go to the Songping base to ask for help, and let us stick here first. The old boy had a good idea. If the government restores order in the future, he will have a share in the merits. It had nothing to do with him at all. I’ve been away for six or seven days and haven’t seen even a single sign of reinforcements!”

"It turns out he escaped on his own."

Lin Chen smiled, not surprised. When the apocalypse comes, it's normal to have such irresponsible people. It would be strange if there weren't.

"However, I think it's a good thing that he ran away. Without him, I have the final say here. In order to save food, I let go of the dozen or so guys who didn't commit serious crimes. I only have a few of the most heinous ones locked up here. Dare to let go. The warden is afraid of taking responsibility, but I am not afraid. After so many days, I finally understand that this world can never go back to its original state!"

Indeed, this guy is really courageous!

To release a prisoner without permission is the most serious dereliction of duty. But having said that, Lin Chen also felt that it was impossible for the world to return to its original state. If he was released, it would be a good thing for both the prisoners and himself.

After talking eloquently, Qian Xu stopped talking.

He looked up at the sky and said to Lin Chen: "Forget it, let's not talk about these spoiling things. I think it's getting late, so even if you two want to leave, you won't be in such a hurry. Stay here for one night before leaving. It’s good for me to be a landlord. Lao Cao’s Yangzhou fried rice is quite delicious. I guess you haven’t had hot rice in these days.”

Lao Cao should be the chef among the three.

"If that's the case, then I'm sorry."

Qian Xu's invitation was sincere, and Lin Chen agreed after thinking about it.

The next place he wants to go is Ping'an Town, which is still some distance away. Even if we set off now, it will be dark by the time we get there, so we might as well get there early tomorrow. Besides, after eating biscuits, ham and so on for so many days, Lin Chen really wanted to taste the hot food.

Shi Xuanxuan had no objection, so the two returned to their residence under the leadership of Qian Xu.

"This building has been thoroughly cleaned by us, and several criminals are also locked up here. It should be absolutely safe. But since you two have pistols, safety shouldn't be a problem. Well, we're here."

Lin Chen followed Qian Xu to a stop and looked at the room, which was simply modified from the prison guard's duty room.

Probably because all the people living here are men, there is a faint smell of feet in the house. The things inside were also messy, including pistols, police batons, clothes, bags of rice...

"This smells like this!"

A beauty like Shi Xuanxuan would never enter such a messy man's room. Suddenly smelling the stench, she couldn't help but frown and cover her nose.

"Sorry, I forgot to clean it up."

Seeing Shi Xuanxuan's actions, even Qian Xu became embarrassed. He quickly put the gun on the bedside, and then took Lin Chen and Shi Xuanxuan to an empty house opposite: "I'll help you clean it up later. You can stay here tonight."

"Is there no other room?"

Shi Xuanxuan glanced at Lin Chen. Although she felt that she could be trusted, she still felt comfortable sleeping alone.

"Why do you need another room? This is spacious enough. Not only you two, but two more can sleep in it. Of course, there are many rooms here, but the others have not been flushed, and many zombies have died in them. The traces left behind.”

Qian Xu's words decisively made Shi Xuanxuan give up her mind. Zombies are really disgusting. In comparison, Lin Chen is undoubtedly much cuter.

"So be it."

………

"It's dinner, it's dinner! I heard that there are guests coming today, so I specially made two extra servings."

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Cao, a balding man about forty years old, laid out the food and started shouting.

"Very good."

Today's meal is a bit late, and Feng Jianguo has been hungry for a long time. He sat down on the makeshift table with an expectant look on his face, obviously very confident in Lao Cao's craftsmanship.

"You're welcome, just feel free to eat."

Qian Xu also moved his chopsticks unceremoniously.

Seeing these two people starting to eat, Lin Chen and Shi Xuanxuan also sat down with confidence and started to feast.

The dinner consisted of a plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of shredded potatoes, and a small bowl of fried rice. Although it is not a sumptuous meal, it is already a good meal for Lin Chen and Shi Xuanxuan. It's just that Lao Cao is still a little regretful, because all the other dishes are either finished or spoiled, leaving only long-lasting ingredients like potatoes and eggs, otherwise he can make more dishes!

Ten minutes later, there were several empty plates on the table.

Shi Xuanxuan was still a little weak and went back to rest early after the meal. Seeing her nonchalance, the slight ripples in Lin Chen's heart calmed down. He picked another bed, blew out the candles, and prepared to rest.

The dim moonlight shone in from the window. Lin Chen listened to Shi Xuanxuan's thin breathing, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

"Are you asleep? Lin Chen?"

Suddenly there was a gentle knock on the door and Qian Xu's muffled voice.

I came to the door at this time. Did something happen? Lin Chen, who was a little nervous, quickly turned over and got up. Fortunately, the weather in Songyang was still very hot as October was about to enter, and he didn't wear many clothes, otherwise it would be very troublesome in winter.

"I can't sleep, and I want to tell you something."

Qian Xu changed into a loose vest and wore slippers on his feet. He didn't look like anything was wrong at all.

"good."

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment, then agreed. He didn't want to sleep for a while anyway, so he might as well listen to what Qian Xu wanted to say.

Qian Xu did not try to be mysterious. After taking Lin Chen a few steps inside, he said, "I would like to ask, where do you want to go after you leave tomorrow?"

"It should be to Ping'an Town."

Although it was a little strange, Lin Chen still said his destination.

Qian Xu was stunned and asked: "Aren't you going to Songping Base?"

"I heard that there is a small camp in Ping'an Town, and the people there are working to clean up the zombies in the town. If everything goes well, the supplies in the town can be moved at will. It happened that my glasses were broken, maybe I can touch them there. luck."

Lin Chen's answer made Qian Xu fall into a brief daze.

About half a minute later, Qian Xu raised his head again and said to Lin Chen, "Okay, I'll follow you there tomorrow."

Nani?

Is this a common practice among some people?

Lin Chen looked at Qian Xu in surprise and asked, "You want to leave? What should we do here?"

Of course, there was another question he didn't ask directly, which was why Qian Xu stayed in the relatively safe detention center instead of taking the risk and following him out.

"Is it weird?"

Qian Xu smiled and said with a hint of bitterness and longing: "There are two main reasons why I want to leave. As for my personal reasons, I have never been able to bear loneliness. The colleagues and prisoners in the detention center around me are almost They all turned into zombies. I'm really tired of staying here. If it weren't for taking care of Jianguo and Lao Cao, I would have run away with the warden."

"What about the other reason?"
