Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!-Chapter 36: Captain Zhu

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Captain Zhu
"Everyone line up! Follow behind!"
The green garbage truck rolled forward arrogantly, and Uncle Wang’s boisterous and resonant voice echoed.
A dozen police cars followed the garbage truck, moving forward slowly.
Through the car windows, one could vaguely see that there were not only police officers inside, but also some elders and children.
The line of private cars was very long, with at least twenty or thirty vehicles.
When Bai Anhai waited for the last private car to pass, he joined the very end of the queue.
Behind the bus, private cars occasionally joined the convoy, which grew longer and longer, resembling a dragon winding along the road.
From the initial green garbage truck to the last private car, it seemed like a dragon stretching along Zhongcheng Avenue, spanning the entire S City.
Perhaps Leng Yebai’s online reminders had an effect, as the number of survivors was significantly higher than in the previous world.
The green garbage truck paved the way and gallantly exited S City.
As the entire convoy completed their evacuation of S City, on the other side of the city, zombies gradually began to enter S City.
"Sis, it’s not even spring yet, why is grass already growing?"
Bai Yifan lay against the car window, looking curiously at the scene outside.
Seven days remained until the Spring Festival, and in previous years, snowfall was still possible during this time.
Yet now, grass along the roadside had already sprouted.
"It’s nature’s gift," Bai Xiqin replied.
The abnormal energy fluctuations caused mutations in humans and animals, but for plants, this energy acted like a catalyst.
All plants were growing wildly, and some resilient weeds could easily grow on concrete roads or walls.
For humans, this energy was a disaster, but for plants, it was an exceptional gift.
Before the apocalypse, humans had damaged nature.
After the apocalypse, green plants would cover the earth.
Even some deserts would see green islands emerge.
"Perhaps it’s a good thing for the earth, but for us, it’s a disaster," Bai Yifan shrugged.
With the rapid development of technology, human life became more convenient, resulting in more white trash and a decrease in green vegetation.
Now, it’s uncertain if the apocalypse is a blessing or a curse!
"Why did we stop?"
Bai Anhai saw the cars ahead had stopped and pressed the brakes too.
Bai Xiqin glanced at her watch; it was already one in the afternoon.
The roadside where they parked was a wheat field, the green wheat having just grown about ten centimeters.
Looking around, there was nothing but wheat.
No village ahead, no store behind, not a zombie shadow in sight.
There were small animals in the wheat field, though fewer than in the woods, and no large animals threatening human safety.
It was relatively safe.
"Everyone send one representative from each car for a meeting!"
A voice blared from a loudspeaker at the front.
Bai Xiqin looked ahead and saw several vehicles had opened their doors, and someone had stepped out.
This place was open and safe at a glance, so there was no dilemma about getting out.
"Xiao Leng, you go!"
Bai Anhai glanced at the people passing by the bus, his lips twitching.
At just a glance, he recognized two unusual people.
One was one of the creditors who bought his house, and the other handled the mortgage.
In short, very awkward.
Leng Yebai said nothing and opened the door, ready to get out.
Suddenly, he saw a chubby man.
The man was dressed brightly, wore a thick gold chain, and had a branded watch on his wrist.
Leng Yebai silently stared at the man and quietly retreated back to the living room.
"I can’t go," Leng Yebai calmly pointed at the chubby man ahead, "I sold my company to him at a high price."
"Business is about mutual consent, so if he’s willing, why are you afraid?" Bai Anhai asked, confused.
"I emptied the company before selling it to him," Leng Yebai sat coolly on the chair.
In short, the boss bought an empty shell company at a high price!
Everyone: ...
"Mom, how about you go?"
Bai Xiqin turned to Wang Yiyun.
"I’d better not go; I’m afraid of running into my colleagues from the crematorium," Wang Yiyun awkwardly touched her nose, "When I resigned, I beat up my boss and gave unpleasant ’comments’ to all the colleagues I didn’t like!"
Everyone: ...
Good grief, if it weren’t for the apocalypse, who knows how many family members would be in jail!
"Then I’ll go!"
Bai Xiqin prepared to get out of the car.
"Xiao Niu, let me go instead!" Bai Zhengxuan pulled Bai Xiqin back, "I’m older, so if anyone is unreasonable, I can play the senior card! If worst comes to worst, I’ll just lie down in front of their car!"
After saying that, he pulled Bai Xiqin back and proceeded to get out of the car on his own.
Bai Xiqin was a bit uneasy, silently tossing a white object towards Bai Zhengxuan.
A streak of white light darted to Bai Zhengxuan’s wrist, cooling it slightly.
Bai Zhengxuan glanced under his sleeve, a white jade-colored little snake was sticking its tongue out at him.
Bai Zhengxuan: ...
He couldn’t tell if his granddaughter was pranking him or protecting him!
With a snake wrapped around his wrist, he felt his blood pressure rise a bit!
Everyone waited in the car, which was spacious enough, with snacks to eat, and nobody got out for fresh air.
About half an hour later, Bai Zhengxuan returned.
The first thing Bai Zhengxuan did upon returning was hand the little snake back to Bai Xiqin.
This thing chilled his wrist!
Bai Xiqin took the Water Python, and when it tried to wrap around her wrist, she placed it into the space.
"Captain Zhu from the police station has Thunder Ability; he discovered abnormalities through police dog patrols near City No.1 Middle School and organized an evacuation to a large wind power plant ahead. They plan to depart at three."
Bai Zhengxuan succinctly relayed the meeting’s content.
"Captain Zhu?" Bai Xiqin was momentarily stunned.
In the previous world, she’d heard his name often at the safety base; he was one of the founders of the Fire Phoenix Safety Base!
But in the last world, he didn’t organize evacuations at this time.
Perhaps, from the moment she was reborn, a butterfly effect occurred, and this world was destined to be different from the previous one.
"Yes, there are only five or six officers up front with Captain Zhu now; the others might not have survived!" Bai Zhengxuan sighed.
Thankfully, his granddaughter had a prophetic dream; otherwise, the family wouldn’t be standing safely here.
Bai Xiqin’s eyes flickered; the Fire Phoenix Safety Base.
She might even run into her "good friend" there!
She owed it to her friend for being captured and researched, then for being reborn.
This time, if Bai Xiqin doesn’t beat her half to death and feed her to zombies, she won’t bear the Bai name!
"That wind power plant is quite open, so there probably aren’t many zombies; maybe that will become the safety base?" Bai Yifan suggested.
"Not necessarily. From... my dream, the safety base is still a long way from here," Bai Xiqin said sternly to everyone, "No matter where we are, never trust outsiders easily, okay?"
Because she’d trusted her so-called good friend, she ended up being captured and researched!
