Meanwhile, in the container home next door, Wei Heng was thinking about the same thing.
A few days ago, before some of the camp's heavy equipment had arrived, Mr. Zhou organized everyone to go out scavenging and exploring since they had nothing to do.
The NX1984 ruin zone, they said, was once a small but bustling trade town before the apocalypse.
These days, pre-apocalypse items were rare, and anything brought back to the base could usually fetch a high price.
Since Wei Heng had nothing better to do, he went along as well.
Later, he stumbled upon the unconscious Gu Xi in a patch of overgrown weeds...
Until today, Wei Heng had always believed it was just a chance encounter.
But Gu Xi's reaction today... forced Wei Heng to wonder if there was more to the story.
Wei Heng was now regretting his actions. He shouldn't have gotten carried away and sent that person a message this afternoon.
