Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 598 - Chapter 598 Chapter 599 Uncontrolled Its Going to Be Out of

Chapter 598: Chapter 599: Uncontrolled, It’s Going to Be Out of Control! Chapter 598: Chapter 599: Uncontrolled, It’s Going to Be Out of Control! “It might not be true at all.”

“It is true. I heard that the Qiu family at the foot of Shu Mountain bartered half a bag of Xiaomi for a few eggs to provide nutrition for their daughter-in-law who had just given birth.”

“Is that the old Qiu who does odd jobs for the government?”

“Yeah, the child was just born and is not even a month old yet. Sigh, in this day and age, it’s hard to know if the child can be well taken care of.”

Though the words were put delicately, what they really meant was: the child was born at such a time when there is nothing to go around; can it even survive?

“I didn’t expect the Qius to be so good to their daughter-in-law.”

“Indeed.”

“So you’re saying Luo Gang also wants to go into the mountains to catch some wild hens that can lay eggs?”

“It’s quite possible that’s what he’s thinking.”

“It’s too dangerous, he’s just taking a desperate chance because the military strength at the base of the mountain is insufficient. What if something goes wrong? Won’t the men under Group Captain Tang have to go into the mountains as well?”

“If the military personnel run into trouble and the military force weakens further, the First Safe Zone is likely to descend into chaos.”

Fu Shiyin thought for a moment, “Old Ge, where do you think Group Captain Tang and Su Shu have gone? They’ve been away for so long; couldn’t something have happened to them outside?”

“They couldn’t have. Tang Zelin is the captain of a group. If something unexpected had happened, the 208th Group would definitely have to replace its leader by now. You see, there’s no movement at the foot of the mountain; maybe they got delayed by some tricky matter while going to Pengcheng to pick people up. Nothing will have happened.”

Xiao’ai is still here; if something really happened to that couple,

someone would have come to find Xiao’ai.

So Ge Tingzhi didn’t believe there was anything to worry about in this regard.

Luo Gang was preparing to go into the mountains, and he definitely wasn’t the only one in the Safe Zone with that idea.

At this moment, Ge Tingzhi desperately wished Tang Zelin would return soon.

That way, he could also help contain such a situation.

If it wasn’t controlled soon, it would get out of hand.

However, he harbored another worry and concern.

The ferocious beasts had been driven deep into the mountains, and it was unknown if they, like humans, were starving after the Apocalypse.

If they were also starving inside and started dying off one by one, and if they had tasted flesh and found it sweet, wouldn’t they just follow the human trails into the mountains to come forward?

If that were to happen, it would truly bring disaster.

To the people in the Safe Zone, those beasts were easy prey, but to the beasts, weren’t the people in the Safe Zone their potential meal?

But he also knew that talking about it now was of no use.

When people were starving, they would do anything.

The Safe Zone had been stable for several months, but it was uncertain whether this incident would trigger turmoil.

In the First Safe Zone, there really were many people who wanted to go into the mountains.

Near the foot of the mountain, sandwiched between the military barracks and residential area of the first district, there was also a new housing district that had been recently built.

Half of these placements were to take care of the people who had previously stayed temporarily in the military camps, while the other half were for new wives who had married into the military, providing them with accommodations.

Previously, when the 208th Group rescued some outsiders, there was a disagreement between the military and the government regarding their placement.

This new settlement area probably had the best conditions in C-city, and its quota for residents was already full.

Now, if they wanted to arrange for more people to move in, what about the people from other areas?

Moreover, most of these people had unclear identities, including some who were not even from C-city, making them impossible to accommodate.

What if there were problems?

But the military was also in a tough spot; they were a mobile force, needing discipline for daily training and task execution.
