Chapter 442 Discussing about finding supplies
During this week, Su Keke and Grandma Qiao went out to look for people every night, but they never found any trace of those people.
These people who controlled the poisonous bees seemed to have suddenly disappeared, which made the always confident Su Keke a little distressed.
There are so many people in the whole town, and everyone is hidden in the fog. It is obviously impossible to use the life detector in the capsule house.
What's even stranger is that even those poisonous bees seem to have disappeared these days.
Officer Nick, who is on the opposite floor, goes out in the same way as Su Keke these days.
He and the mayor took the map of Limo Town and circled several suspicious locations. He led people to carefully investigate, but he never found any clues.
The map of the town was almost full of red circles drawn by him and the mayor. It was strange that those people and bees were not found.
This fog made it a lot more difficult for them to find people, but compared to Su Keke, they did have good news.
It was in the process of searching for those suspicious persons that they found a dozen police officers who were hiding.
There are now twenty police officers from the mayor's side who can go out into the field.
The police force is constantly growing, which means that it is only a matter of time before those people are found.
But sometimes time is really a problem. Although those poisonous bees have suddenly disappeared in the past few days, with the increase in the number of people, the mayor's western-style building has gradually run out of supplies.
The mansion is now full of people from top to bottom. In order to give the new police officers a place to stay, the mayor and his assistant Jesse have moved in with Dr. Huang.
Officer Nick wanted to find those suspicious characters as soon as possible, so he also stayed with Dr. Huang.
Fortunately, Dr. Huang's house has many empty rooms upstairs, otherwise it would be impossible to accommodate so many people.
……
"Aunt Ji, don't come to the kitchen to help when your injury is better. Just wait for breakfast."
Grandma Qiao pushed Aunt Ji out of the kitchen and asked her to sit at the dining table and wait to eat.
Besides, their supplies were almost out, so Grandma Qiao kept things simple in the morning, just eating grilled sausages and bread.
Both of these things can be eaten by simply roasting them in the oven, so Grandma Qiao thought she could make them by herself.
"Grandma Qiao, how much more food do we have?"
Su Ke could see that the portions of food he had eaten in the past few days were getting smaller and smaller, so he ran to the kitchen and asked.
"There's just some bread and sausages, we have to go out and find something to eat!"
Grandma Qiao winked at Su Keke, thinking that after the two of them finished breakfast, they would find a reason to go out and prepare some more food for everyone.
Unexpectedly, their conversation was overheard by the mayor and Officer Ni who came in.
The two of them had just come over from breakfast across the building, where Jesse was still cleaning up the kitchen.
In the current situation, Jesse was responsible for all the meals in the building opposite. It was really overkill to have an assistant to the mayor working in the kitchen every day.
But there is nothing we can do. Apart from scientific researchers and police officers, no one in the building opposite can cook.
"Are you almost out of food?"
Nick asked with concern.
"Seems to be!"
Su Keke took a piece of bread, took a bite, and walked out of the kitchen.
"I heard nothing. Could it be that the mayor's side doesn't have any supplies?"
Dr. Huang, who was making coffee on the other side of the kitchen, heard their conversation and suddenly came out and asked.
"Doctor Huang is also in the kitchen! We really don't have many supplies."
The mayor did not hide anything from them and truthfully told them about their food reserves.
There were so many of them that the food the mayor had stored for the scientific researchers could no longer last, and it was only enough for two days.
Now that people on both sides are short of supplies, the mayor discussed with everyone how to find supplies.
In the living room of Dr. Huang's house, except for Jesse, everyone else had stopped eating breakfast and sat neatly on the sofa.
There were only a few sofas in the living room, so Aunt Ji, who was recovering from her injuries, and Grandma Su Kekeqiao crowded together and sat together.
Not to mention, Aunt Ji lost a lot of weight due to the injury this time, but her face still looks good. Grandma Qiao has been making beef and fish soup for her these days.
Shanna also rubbed her eyes and came downstairs. She sat down next to Dr. Huang.
After everyone arrived, Officer Nick spoke first, "I originally planned to go out and look for it by myself. Since you are also short of supplies, do you want to come with me?"
"No matter which supermarket it is now, it is probably sold out. Does your government have its own granary?"
Dr. Huang asked, holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee in his hand and taking a sip.
"This one……"
Officer Nick glanced at Mayor Reis and seemed to ask him, can he talk about the government granary?
"The government does have a small granary, but the most in it is flour and a small amount of rice. Su Keke and Grandma Qiao should be familiar with rice. Other vegetables, meat, and seafood are not available in that small granary."
"My opinion is to go to the supermarket first. If there is really no supplies in the supermarket, then you have to go to the granary."
After the mayor said this, he casually glanced at Su Keke and Grandma Qiao opposite.
"Rice is more delicious to us Chinese than hot dogs with bread."
Seeing the mayor looking at them, Grandma Qiao answered casually.
Su Keke didn't say anything. Her original intention was that she didn't want to follow Officer Nick out, which would make it difficult for her to get supplies from the space.
There are a lot of supplies in her space, so there is no need to search so hard in Limo Town, especially the fruits and vegetables they grow, which are big and fresh, which is much better than those in the vegetable preservation section of the supermarket.
Besides, there has been heavy fog for more than ten days now. Even if there is a backup power supply in the fresh-keeping and freezing section of the supermarket, those fruits and vegetables will definitely be almost spoiled.
"Of course we are willing to go where you can find supplies. Su Keke, let's go together!"
Shanna quickly winked at Su Keke and motioned for her to come along.
Su Keke didn't call her when he went to look for supplies last time, but this time Shanna had to go with her no matter what.
"I'm OK!"
Shanna called her, and Su Keke had no choice but to agree.
"Isn't Dr. Huang going?"
Nick glanced at Dr. Huang, who was sipping a cup of coffee, and said displeased.
Both girls said they were going to find supplies. How come he, a grown man, only wanted to drink coffee.
"I...of course I will go!"
Dr. Huang replied belatedly.
He thought to himself, isn’t Officer Ni’s question nonsense? Su Keke and Shanna have both gone, how can he, a grown man, hide at home and enjoy the benefits?
"Then it's decided, just the four of us will go out together. I want to borrow the big truck in front of your door. Our police car has been driven out by those police officers to look for people. Your truck is best used to carry supplies. It’s appropriate.”
Officer Nick glanced towards the door and said to Dr. Huang.
"You can borrow the car as you like, it's not ours anyway." Dr. Huang smiled and said nonchalantly.
