“How cute. She must be feeling troubled because of me.” In the corner, the young man’s gaze was somewhat infatuated.
Tang Susu was keenly aware of something, but when she raised her head, she only saw those who wanted to go but hesitated.
If Tang Susu hadn’t said those words, they might have gone over on impulse. But now, after weighing the pros and cons, they chose to stay. Their hearts ached for the big bag of survival packs.
Most of them had enough to feed their families. Those who had families did not have any other choice. They had to bite the bullet and move forward even for the sake of the survival pack!
Tang Mingzhou had especially noted down the family members of these participants, even down to their ages.
“I was thinking that we could customize the survival pack according to their needs.” Tang Mingzhou said, “For example, if this person’s youngest daughter hasn’t been weaned, you can give her a can of milk powder.”
“Yeah.” Tang Susu didn’t have any objections. They didn’t drink the milk powder and only drank fresh milk. They had once swept through a large supermarket and collected all the milk powder for both infants and the old on the shelves and warehouses. One or two cans didn’t matter much.
Tang Susu focused on these 22 people. All of them knew how to drive and had experience in killing zombies. Three of them were specialized drivers, two knew how to repair cars, one was a professional, one could only deal with common problems, and one was good at modifying cars. Tang Susu drew another circle.
Other than that, there were also chefs from five-star hotels, butchers who knew animals very well, university students who studied pharmacy, local tour guides, and the director of the botanical garden…
Tang Susu was a little emotional. In the end, how many people had fallen, and how many people were once poor but had risen?
Finally, it was their family’s turn. Cheng Cheng, her daughter, and Bai Yanhui wanted to participate, but Tang Susu had to leave two people behind.
It was related to her A-rank mandatory mission, which was to live in Chongzhou Shelter for 20 days.
This matter had to be discussed at home. Tang Susu looked at her brother’s final conclusion.
[Metahumans: 3 metal-type, 3 water-type, 7 earth-type, 4 fire-type, 1 wood+wind-type, a total of 18. There’s also Yuan Lie’s light-type. However, he will not freely expose himself.]
[Medium-level fighters: 6 members of the Victory Squad, 5 commoners, a total of 11.]
[Ordinary-level martial artists: 1 member of the Victory Squad (Mr. Duan), 10 ordinary people, 11 in total.]
[Weaker fighters: 7 ordinary people, including the weak and sickly Yuan Lie.]
Apart from the Tang family, there were already 47 people who had been confirmed to participate in the search in Shichang City.
The Tang family’s original estimate of 50 sets of survival packs was just about right. They could be packed up and distributed today. Even the Victory Squad and the Wind Squad had a share.
Two hours passed without them realizing it. The meeting was almost over. Before Tang Susu left, she informed everyone.
“I hope that you can nourish your body as soon as possible after you get the supplies today. The journey is dangerous, so you must have a strong body. Also, I hope that you can make your own preparations within the next two days. We will set off on time on the third day!”
Lao Yao wanted to ask about the route and how to get there, but he was stopped by Liang Jun.
When the Tang family returned to their house, their breaths were a little shallow.
“Do we really have to leave two people behind?” Mrs. Tang was a little worried. “It’s good to have everyone together. What if it’s like your dad and second brother last time? It’s not good to stay at home and be worried about you all!” “The outside world is indeed dangerous, so there’s no need for so many people to go. On the other hand, the shelter needs people to protect it. That’s why 1 said what 1 said today. 1 hope that most people will stay. That way, we will be less burdened.”
“Then 1’11 stay.” Mrs. Tang was straightforward. She wasn’t a person who liked to run around. In contrast, she was more interested in staying at home. She only said that because she felt more at ease with her family.
Tang Mingchu was very straightforward. “Mom, you just wait to stay, right? You agreed so quickly!”
“I’m just trying to stop you from being worried. Mingqi, you stay too.”
“No!” Tang Mingqi was decisive and nervous. “Why do you want me to stay? I’ve only been back for a few days.”
“It’s just that you’ve been running around outside for so long. Isn’t it good to stay?”
“I want to be with Susu..”
