“How is this possible?!” Zuo Mingdong glared at him. “1 hope you can stay and never leave. But 1 also know that I can’t keep you. Since you’ve decided to leave, you must have thought it through. I’m just worried that you’d secretly leave behind my back. I’m worried that I wouldn’t have the chance to say goodbye to you.”

Du Yue smiled. “Captain Zuo, who do you think we are? We won’t leave secretly. When the day comes, we’ll definitely need you to send us off.”

As soon as Du Yue said this, the three of them laughed at the same time. Although Xia Ju did not understand what they were laughing at, she laughed along in order to appear more sociable. Xia Ju had a sweet and cute appearance. When she smiled, her eyes were like black grapes soaked in honey. They were black and bright, making people feel good.

After joking for a moment, He Xing spoke again, “We’ve decided to leave the day after tomorrow.” The three of them had already discussed when they would leave. Now that the eggs had been delivered, they had no reason to delay any longer.

“Leaving the day after tomorrow?” Zuo Mingdong frowned slightly. “Isn’t that too rushed?”

Although he was mentally prepared, he still could not help but feel reluctant when he heard the exact date. There were many forks in life, and even the best of friends had to say goodbye one day. However, if there was a chance, he hoped that this day would come later. “We have no choice,” He Xing explained. “The place we’re going to this time is too far. We don’t know what the road conditions are like, nor do we know how long it’ll take to get there.”

When the time came, they would have to find a safe place to stay. There were quite a lot of things to take care of. If they set off early, they would not be flustered even if they encountered any trouble.

Zuo Mingdong nodded slowly. “You’re right. I won’t keep you. Hurry up and pack your luggage. If you need anything, you can look for me. I’ll do my best to help you get it. I’ll come and send you off the day after tomorrow.”

Two days passed by without them realizing it. There were five chicks at home and four hens sent by Zuo Mingdong, so there were a total of nine. Their car was big enough to fit all of them.

The only problem was that they could not just let them run around in the car. They had to make a chicken coop for them. The three of them had good hands-on skills. In addition, there were video tutorials on the tablet. After watching them, the three of them could quickly master the craft. In order to separate the hen and chicks to prevent them from fighting, they finally made two iron cages. When they were placed in the car, they could be stacked together so that the hen and chicks would have enough space to move around.

Looking at the cages in front of her, Du Yue could not help but sigh. Why could she not put living things in her space? Although it was a pity, Du Yue did not dwell too much on this matter. She was already luckier than many people to have such a large space and be able to store so many things. If she was still not satisfied, then she would be too greedy. Other than these chickens, the other things were easier to bring.

The car they drove was big enough to fit all their eggs. Also, Du Yue did not take her car back then. Instead, she left it in the small courtyard. Although no one had driven it for two years, Du Yue found that there was no problem with the car after starting it. It was obvious that Zuo Mingdong had been helping to maintain it during the time they were away.

Since there was no problem with the car and they did not plan to come back again, Du Yue decided to drive the car away this time. Anyway, there were three of them now. It was not a problem for them to drive two cars. On the day of their departure, they drove out of the base early in the morning. Zuo Mingdong was already waiting for them on the road they had to pass, just like two years ago. However, the mood between the three of them was completely different from two years ago.

When they left the first base back then, Du Yue and He Xing knew that they would come back. They knew that they would be able to come back. This time, they did not know if they would have the chance to meet again in the future. Thinking of this, Du Yue’s mood became complicated. If it were before the apocalypse, Du Yue would not feel too bad even if they could not see each other again. After all, everyone had a good life at that time. Even if they never had the chance to meet again, they could be sure that the other party would be fine.

However, it was the apocalypse now, and the situation was completely different from before..
