The trick was successful, and both Ye Fu and Jiang Run couldn't help laughing.
"Give it back to me. These are not maggots. They are tree worms with very high nutritional value, also called oak worms. They must be very delicious fried."
Qi Yuan looked at Ye Fu with difficulty, "Your taste is really extraordinary."
Ye Fu rolled his eyes, "Let's go home first. We've been running around all day and we're all exhausted."
"Brother Song has heated up the food and you can eat it when you get back. Everyone is awake and has been waiting for you to come back."
Qi Yuan ran to the front and informed others.
Ye Fu and Jiang Run entered the wooden house. Everyone else was sitting in the living room. They didn't turn on the lights, so they lit a kerosene lamp. When they saw Ye Fu and Jiang Run coming back, everyone was very excited. Wan Tao's eyes were a little red and he took the photo.
Patting Jiang Run's shoulder, he whispered, "Just come back safely."
"You are finally back." Tang Yizheng stepped forward and patted Jiang Run's arm, and Xuxu and Wenwen jumped directly into Ye Fu's arms.
"It's good to be back. Are you hungry? Let's eat first."
Officer Song brought out the food and everyone sat together. Ye Fu and Jiang Run went to wash their hands and change their clothes.
"You guys have been waiting for us and haven't eaten yet?" Ye Fu looked at everyone disapprovingly.
"We're not hungry. I heard you didn't do any work today, so we just sat here chatting."
"Yes, Sister Ye Fu, we ate a lot of snacks and we are not hungry at all."
Ye Fu touched Wenwen's head and said, "Let's eat. After dinner, I will tell you about the situation in the base."
After the meal, everyone put away the dishes together. Fu Jiao went to wash the dishes, Fang Wei was making tea, and the others put away the things in the warehouse. After finishing their work, they returned to the living room to chat.
"How's it going outside today? Have the patrols come ashore?"
Qi Yuan shook his head, "No, the patrols have all left. I have been on the shore. There are not many cars on the road, so there is probably no movement."
Ye Fu nodded, "Jiang Run and I went to the refugee camp in Heguang City. The situation in the refugee camp is very bad. Compared with having enough food and clothing, there are the most serious safety issues there."
After taking a sip of tea, Ye Fu continued, "A few people, taking advantage of their family's power, raped young men and women in the refugee camp. The corpses floating down before were their fault."
"These people are worse than beasts."
"After dealing with these people, Jiang Run and I went to the base..."
Ye Fu made a long story short and told everyone what he had discovered at the base today. At the same time, he took out the Chinese cabbage and eggplant stored in the space to show them.
"The operation of the base is quite good, especially in terms of breeding and planting. There are also many factories. It is not difficult to maintain the lives of hundreds of thousands of people."
Qi Yuan frowned, "Ye Fu, you just said that they feed crocodiles with dead people, will they feed all kinds of viruses and nematodes like the Longtan base, and then pollute the water source and air? If we live downstream, we will definitely be infected.
Implicated.”
Ye Fu shook his head, "The crocodile has been dealt with by Jiang Run. We don't know if there are such crocodile ponds in other places. Let's take it one step at a time. It is too difficult to investigate. The area of the base and Heguang City is not small.
The reason why we wasted so much time today is because the base is too big and we spent several hours walking around inside."
"There are people at the base doing practical things, but there are also monsters and ghosts fishing in troubled waters. Cover the windows and don't let any light in. I guess there will be a patrol looking for people soon."
"Let's just take care of ourselves. Everyone is tired today. Let's go back to the room and rest early." Ye Fu looked at the time and couldn't help but yawned.
"You two should go to bed early. It's pitch black outside. It's not easy to run around all day. Your eyes will definitely be uncomfortable."
Officer Song was clearing the coffee table, and Wenwen and Xuxu had a tacit agreement to pinch Ye Fu's legs and back.
Ye Fu was amused by them and took out two white rabbit toffees for them.
After returning to the bedroom, Ye Fu went into the space to wash up. As soon as she put in the hot water, Jiang Run appeared behind her.
After driving for a day, Jiang Run looked more energetic than she did. He went to check on the condition of the two pigs, built a pigsty for them, and picked up all the eggs and duck eggs.
Ye Fu admires his energy, he never seems to get tired.
"Jiang Run, the hot water is ready, stop working."
He was squatting there working, and the surrounding environment, the tools in his hands, and his exquisite and perfect face all had an unreal sense of dissonance.
Ye Fu pursed his lips and smiled, helped him prepare pajamas and slippers, and left the room.
When she was in a daze, Jiang Run lifted the quilt and lay down. Ye Fu snorted, leaned back, and got into his arms.
——
Ye Fu slept for more than ten hours. When she woke up, Jiang Run had already gotten up and went out. It was very quiet outside, and she didn't hear any sound for several minutes.
Stretching, Ye Fu slowly got up.
There was some movement in the kitchen. When Ye helped him over, Wenwen and Xuxu were frying popcorn in the kitchen.
The door rang, and Qi Yuan and Jiang Run walked in from the outside with flashlights. They had just gone out for a patrol, but no body was found, and no patrol officers came to search. It seemed that everything was calm.
"Let's have mutton hot pot today. It's windy outside and it's very cold."
Ye held up his coat and said, "Okay, this kind of weather is perfect for drinking mutton soup."
Jiang Run came over and grabbed Ye Fu, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"Have enough sleep."
By the time the others came out of the warehouse after finishing their work, Qi Yuan had already chopped the mutton.
Ye Fu grabbed a handful of popcorn fried by Wenwen. Because of the addition of sugar, the popcorn was very sweet.
"Is today a good day?" Xuxu wondered why everyone looked so happy.
Ye Fu fed her a piece of popcorn, "Every time we eat together is a good day."
Xuxu nodded, then, she moved closer to Ye Fu and said mysteriously, "Auntie, the little bird is back. It said everything is normal outside."
Ye Fu nodded, "Auntie knows, and will feed the little birds worms later."
The wooden house was lively and warm, but the base was shaken by the sudden disappearance of four dandy boys and the destruction of the crocodile pond.
The base management issued an order to dispatch all patrol personnel to conduct a blanket search in the base and Haguang City.
In the yard outside the crocodile pond, several people who were bitten beyond recognition by dogs were sent to the hospital for rescue. Some people suspected that the person who destroyed the crocodile pond kidnapped the four dandy boys.
However, thousands of patrols searched the base and Haguang City, but no trace of those four people was found.
On a mountain more than a hundred kilometers away, several young people were rushing forward in a panic with their luggage in their hands.
They killed the four dandy boys. When they wanted to insult them, they chopped them to death with kitchen knives and chopped them into pieces.
There was a voice in their minds urging them to run away quickly and never get caught.
