Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Safety was the most important thing, and Du Yue understood this. It was not easy for her to live until now. Her life was precious! She had to protect herself well! Du Yue pulled herself out of her thoughts and asked, “How’s the progress of your car?”
“90% completed. After a few more days of testing, we should be able to drive it on the road.”
When she heard that they were going to drive the car, Du Yue’s smile immediately disappeared.
“Do you need to go with them?”
Before He Xing could speak, Du Yue already knew the answer.
This car was designed and made by He Xing alone. No one knew this car better than him. If they really wanted to test drive it, he would definitely follow them. He Xing did not hide anything from her and nodded.
“Can you bring me along?” Du Yue asked directly. Although it was said in a questioning tone, Du Yue knew that He Xing would not reject her.
Having been trapped underground for more than two months, Du Yue also wanted to go out and see what the outside world had become.
Du Yue blinked and waited for He Xing’s answer. He Xing smiled at her dotingly, “Of course. Even if you didn’t bring it up yourself, I was going to ask you if you wanted to go with me. The Snowy Cold Fruits I asked you to prepare should have almost dried up by now, right?”
Du Yue nodded. They had taken out the Snowy Cold Fruits in advance just for now.
They had discussed this beforehand. They had to let the people in the fourth base know about the existence of the Snowy Cold Fruits first, and then they would see the effects of the fruits with their own eyes. Only then would they be able to bring up the idea of going to the first base to exchange for the Snowy Cold Fruits. Otherwise, who would believe them? Of course, they would not hide the fact that they were going out from Xia Ju, and they had to tell her in advance. Therefore, during breakfast the next day, Du Yue told Xia Ju that they might be going out in two days. Xia Ju, who had just gotten up from the bed, was still a little groggy. When she heard this, she instantly perked up. “When are you going?”
Before telling Xia Ju, Du Yue had already guessed Xia Ju’s reaction, so Du Yue was not surprised to see Xia Ju so excited. “It’s not that we don’t want to let you go with us, but the base might not agree.”
Xia Ju was confused. “Why wouldn’t they agree?”
“You’re now a first-cla.s.s protected human in the eyes of the base. They still hope that you can make a better nutrient solution or develop other good things. How can they let you go out and take risks?”
As soon as Du Yue finished speaking, Xia Ju frowned. “If they want to restrict my personal freedom now, they won’t stop us from leaving in the future, right?”
Although she knew that Xia Ju would not want to hear the truth, Du Yue did not lie to her. “Yes, they’ll definitely find a way to stop you.”
Seeing Xia Ju’s expression darken, Du Yue quickly added, “Don’t worry. No matter how much they try to stop them, He Xing and I won’t abandon you.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Ju finally smiled. “There’ll always be a way out. This time, I’m going with you! Just tell the people in the base that I’m also well-versed in medicine. I’ll go out with you to take a look at the situation outside. Maybe 1 can research the medicine that people need the most right now.”
This was the truth. After all, it was Xia Ju who extracted the medicine from the Snowy Cold Fruit. Du Yue was silent for a moment before saying, “Have you thought it through? Once the base knows that you can make medicine, they’ll pay more attention to you.”
Xia Ju nodded. “Can’t I make my own decisions?”
At most, she would leave and never come back! Du Yue and Xia Ju looked at each other, and Du Yue could clearly see her thoughts from her beautiful eyes. Previously, they had agreed to leave together in four months. However, there were too many changes, and their plans could not keep up with the changes. It was not impossible for them to leave now.
Since they had this plan, they naturally had to tell He Xing.
At night, the three of them discussed another plan of action at the dinner table. The number of people who could partake in the test drive was limited. This car was relatively large, but it could only sit about ten people. Originally, He Xing had only reported Du Yue’s name. Now that Xia Ju wanted to go with them, he had to re-apply. Ever since He Xing reported Xia Ju’s name, the base had sent a few waves of people to advise Xia Ju. They implied that Xia Ju was very important to the base now, and the base was worried about her safety, so they advised her not to partic.i.p.ate in activities that were too dangerous..
