After bidding farewell to the fat uncle, everyone unloaded the large and small packages of unredeemed supplies out of the car and caressed the two very dilapidated car bodies. Everyone felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

Everything was ready, and the Imperial Capital Base was really close to them. The group held the admission pass and entered without any obstruction. After passing through the high gate, the scene inside the base finally came into view.

The nearly noon sun shines on the rows of low blue brick houses, casting neat shadows on the narrow road.

On the roadside, some elderly people were sitting around in twos and threes, processing some furry animal meat. Although their clothes looked shabby, they could still cover their bodies. It seemed that the people living in the base were living a good life.

, at least they can still have something to eat and a house to live in, which is much better than the refugees they saw along the way.

Under the walls on both sides of the gate, a group of children were playing around, seemingly snatching something. After seeing Du Jiujiu and his party coming in from the gate, the children stopped fighting and gathered around one after another.

Only dirty little hands were holding their clothes, and you and I were shouting and making a mess.

Du Jiujiu finally managed to figure out what these children wanted to express from their messy words. It turned out that they were vying to be guides for people like them.

Although the space in the base is not comparable to the size of the city, you can't see the end at a glance. It will be a bit troublesome if there is no one to guide you when you first come here. These children are aware of this and rely on their knowledge of the base to help the first place.

The people who came to the Imperial Capital base for the first time led the way, so that they could earn some change to support their families.

Du Jiujiu really wanted to find a child to take them to a place where they could rent a house, but seeing so many children looking at her expectantly, she didn't know who to choose.

Du Jiujiu's eyes swept through the children, and finally stopped on a boy who looked about ten years old. This boy stood out among these children because his clothes were too shabby and covered with mud.

His clothes and pants were full of holes.

His body was frighteningly thin. Through the holes in his shirt, Du Jiujiu could even see the traces of his ribs on his chest. On his sallow face, his pair of dark eyes were particularly large due to his sunken cheeks.

Behind the boy, there is a little girl of five or six years old hiding. The little girl's body is also very thin, but her complexion is better than that of the boy, and her clothes are not as tattered. She blinks a pair of big black and bright hair like the boy.

Du Jiujiu's eyes looked at her timidly, and Du Jiujiu felt that she was instantly melted by this gaze.

"You, yes, and this little sister behind you, come and lead the way." Du Jiujiu waved to the two children. The other children showed disappointed expressions when they saw this, and then they dispersed and went to look for them again.

Others are here for the first time.

"My name is Bai Lun, and my sister's name is Bai Ying. We are both locals and are very familiar with this place! Big sister, just ask wherever you want to go, and I can take you there!"

When the boy saw that Du Jiujiu had chosen him, his little face was full of excitement that could not be concealed. He quickly patted his chest and assured Du Jiujiu, as if he was afraid that she would regret it.

"Okay, Bai La, right? We just got here and want to find a place to live first. Do you know where it is?" Du Jiujiu's tone couldn't help but become gentle as she looked at the boy who looked like a little adult in front of her.

"Of course I know! But..." Bai Chang rubbed his fingers and showed an embarrassed smile: "Sister, you have to give me the money to lead the way first."

"No problem, how much do you want?" Du Jiujiu was not afraid of what tricks this boy could play in front of her, and looked at him with a smile of interest.

"Just ten new coins, big sister, I don't want much at all, really! If...if you don't have new coins, just give us some food!" Bai Ju tentatively held out ten fingers.

Then he hesitated for a moment and his eyes fell on the package Du Jiujiu was carrying.

"Biscuits, meat, vegetables, anything is fine, we won't pick it!" Seeing that Du Jiujiu didn't agree immediately, the boy couldn't help but became a little anxious and quickly added.

Seeing two pairs of big black eyes looking at her pitifully, Du Jiujiu's heart softened again. She took out a package of dried meat weighing about one kilogram from the package beside her and handed it to Bai La's hand.

"I'll give you these dried meats as a day's wages for hiring you brothers and sisters."

"Really?!" Bai Chang weighed the bag in his hand and instantly showed an expression of disbelief. You must know that the price of food is very expensive in the apocalypse. Such a pack of alien meat jerky can at least be enough.

For one hundred Singapore dollars, this kind of income is beyond the reach of even many adults working in the base.

"That's right." Du Jiujiu nodded, the smile on his face not diminishing.

Although he got a positive answer, Bai Lun still hesitated a little. He took out a piece of dried meat from the bag, put it into his mouth and took a big bite. Suddenly, a rich meaty fragrance spread in his mouth.

There was also a warm feeling that followed, and as he swallowed, it slid into his already hungry stomach. Only then did he finally feel sure that the big sister in front of him had not lied to him.

Bai Chang quickly took out two more pieces of dried meat and stuffed them into his sister's hands. However, he didn't eat any more. Instead, he carefully sealed the bag containing the dried meat and stuffed it into his arms.

When he looked at Du Jiujiu again, Bai Chang's eyes were a little more grateful. No matter what the purpose of the elder sister in front of him was to give them so much food, these dried meats would allow him and his sister to survive in this cruel apocalypse.

A few days of life.

Unlike other children, their brother and sister's parents both died while protecting them in the early days of the end of the world. His half-grown child had to take care of his younger sister, and life was understandably difficult.

In this world where almost everyone is in danger, a kind heart has become the rarest thing. When making a choice between one's own life and the lives of others, few people will care about the so-called morality and benevolence.

To steal, to rob, to deceive, Bai La would do anything for his sister, but no matter how hard he struggled, he and his sister still had no hope of even having a full meal.

"Sister, if you need anything from now on, just come to us at the gate of the city and we'll be on call! I'll take you to a place to rent a house now. I know there is a place with a very good environment and a reasonable price, and it's

In the territory of the Superpower Association, safety is guaranteed!"
