The people inside the base are all professionally trained soldiers, and there is nothing to say about tracking them. If she hadn't received more sophisticated training than regular warriors, she might not have been able to discover it.

She poked the face of the little boy in her arms, and the little guy actually smiled at her again, so cute.

In this world, whether it is before or after the apocalypse, perhaps only children would smile at her like this.

These two little guys seemed to like her very much.

There are many towering trees inside the base to protect them from the wind and rain, so even if they don't wear raincoats or umbrellas, after the heavy rain outside falls, there will only be a faint trace of drizzle.

The outpatient building is the only building in the entire base with a team of soldiers standing guard outside 24 hours a day.

She only learned from others that this building used to be a clinic building. Otherwise, just looking at its dense vines and clusters of rose flowers, she would have thought it was a special scenic spot set up in a botanical garden.

The fragrance of rose flowers is so refreshing. Xiao Ni likes this fragrance very much, and also likes to look at the plant building that looks like a giant cocoon, so every time she takes Xiao Ni in and out of the outpatient building, the guards at the door don't care about her.

However, she was only allowed to visit freely on the first floor, and she was not allowed to enter the second and third floors.

But even one layer was enough to make her feel incredible.

Can so many plants really grow here?

Why are tomatoes so big?

The grape vines hung in a mess on the window sill in the corner, and each vine was covered with green-fleshed grapes.

But is this really a grape?

A bunch of grapes can cover a third of the window, each grape is as big as an egg.

She originally wanted to eat a grape secretly while no one was paying attention, but the old farmer who was farming came over with a whole bunch of grapes and gave it to her.

"Little girl, if you have time, come to another floor and take a walk with these two little babies. We have few children in our base, so it will be more lively with two children.

This bunch of grapes is ripe and very sweet. Grapes are our favorite. "

Jia Xiaoyi pointed to the grapevine beside the bed, "I am, old man."

Jia Xiaoyi regretted his carelessness. He must have seen what he wanted to do secretly. However, the old farmer in front of him didn't seem to care at all.

"It doesn't matter. I was shocked when I saw such big grapes for the first time. I wanted to pick them and try them. However, I'm not trying to scare you. You'd better not pick the grapes by the window."

Jia Xiaoyi didn't quite understand, "Why?"

"Hey, I don't know how to explain this to you. Except for Comrade Pony Ma, no one else can pick the grapes in this building. Come on, I have to go and get it. I'll come here to pick it up after I finish eating. The best in our base The only thing we don’t lack is food.”

Jia Xiaoyi looked at the old farmer's leaving figure. He originally wanted to approach the window in disbelief, but at this moment, a man with a scar on his face walked in holding an oversized basket made of purple bamboo.

He saw Jia Xiaoyi with two children and greeted him warmly.

"Hey, isn't this our Zhuang Zhuang savior! You are here too! Come on, this is the smoked toad jerky that the chef has just made. Try it."

Jia Xiaoyi looked at Ma Dexiang, wearing a pair of black leather gloves on such a sultry rainy day, and took out a smoked toad bigger than her head from the purple bamboo basket and handed it to her.

Jia Xiaoyi's stunned look made Ma Dexiang a little strange. He suddenly thought of something and patted his head in realization.

"Oh, I'm sorry, you're holding the child in one hand and grapes in the other. How about this, I'll give you this basket, and you can just put the grapes and dried toads in it."

Ma Dexiang took out the remaining smoked dried toads in the basket, then put the grapes and dried toads collected by Jia Xiaoyi into it, and then handed the entire frame to her.

"This is made of purple bamboo. It won't go bad if you put it in it for a long time. You can take it back and eat it slowly."

Jia Xiaoyi looked at the things in his hands, feeling a little dazed and looking a little unnatural.

"By the way, wait for me here for a while." After saying that, he carried the remaining few oversized smoked toads and walked towards a few old farmers who were farming.

Seeing that the person coming was Ma Dexiang, everyone laughed.

"Comrade Xiaoma, what delicious food did you cook for us?"

"Smoked dried toads, hahaha, you guys try it first. If it tastes good, I'll make more. It won't be a big deal."

"Okay! Tsk, tsk, tsk, each of these toads is bigger than the last, and the meat is delicious. We old guys are in luck again!"

"Pony, wait a minute. We still have a lot of freshly picked lychees and peaches. You can take some with you, but remember to keep the cores and send them back after you're done!"

Jia Xiaoyi did not dare to walk over and stand out, but after a minute, another conversation came from the field on the other side.

"This peach is really big! Don't give me too much, I won't be able to handle it. This lychee is also big, let me try one first."

With the sound of "silk" and the sound of juice entering the mouth, Jia Xiaoyi couldn't help but swallowed greedily.

"Wow, this lychee is even sweeter than before. Give me some more, and I'll bring some to Lao Chen and Xiao Leizi. How many more peaches are there? I'll send the extra ones to the kitchen soon. I can't eat them all. It will go bad if left alone, so I can make it into dried peach preserves and store it longer."

"Okay, there are still a lot of peaches, and there is also an apricot tree that bears a lot of fruits, but the tree is still young and the fruits are not big. We will collect them and send them to you later."

Jia Xiaoyi looked at Ma Dexiang holding two volleyball-sized peaches and a bag of lychees. The lychees were bulging in the transparent bag, and they were as big as an egg.

Is this base really just an ordinary base?

She used to live on the outskirts and had to grow her own food in exchange for food. She never knew that the central members inside the base actually lived a different life from them.

Before leaving, Ma Dexiang walked past her and put two lychees into her basket.

She felt a little bit of resistance in her heart towards these people who showed inexplicable generosity to strangers like her, but there was also an unnoticeable envy.

If possible, could she bring her mother to live here?

With her status as a "lifesaver", she believed that she and her mother would be treated well.

As long as she can live like a normal person in this place, that's enough.

What Lin Xiaoxuan said before she left the base in Kyoto City flashed in her mind.

"If you want your mother to be well, complete the task I assigned you. If you succeed, your mother and you will live well in the future. If you fail, you know the consequences. Xiao Yi, don't let me down. .”

Jia Xiaoyi took a deep breath and left the outpatient building with complicated emotions.

Su Mi is dead, and half of her mission is completed. There is also Qin Hao.

As long as Qin Hao dies, she can take her mother out.

But she has been here for a month and has never seen Qin Hao's face.

She suddenly thought of Chen Jin and Ma Dexiang. These two people were very familiar with Qin Hao. It seemed that she had to find a way to start with them.
