    The people in the four cars were obviously not willing to be fooled like this, and they immediately chased after them after they realized what they were doing.

    However, they did not catch up with all four vehicles. There was still one vehicle left behind, presumably to get the return capsule away.

    Chen Xin saw the pursuers behind him through the footage captured by the drone, but he didn't pay much attention. If it was just a chase of this level, his car would not be afraid of anyone.

    "Go and ask if everything has been brought up. If there is nothing missing, we will leave." Chen Xin looked at the astronaut aside and motioned to him to ask Zhang Chengguang if there was anything missing, but mainly  Let's check Zhang Chengguang's condition. Chen Xin saw him taking off his protective clothing just now.

    The astronaut nodded and left, while Chen Xin controlled the car to move forward. Although the three cars behind him followed closely, they could not catch up with Chen Xin.

    The reason why he didn't drive away at high speed was because he was worried that Zhang Chengguang might have missed something.

    If there is anything that needs to be returned, Chen Xin will rudely crash all three chasing cars and park them here, then drive back to deal with the last car, and then pick up the things.

    The reason why he didn¡¯t do this just now was because Zhang Chengguang was not in the car. If Chen Xin hit someone and he encountered any danger, it would be a small gain but a big loss.

    "Lao Zhang said that the data memory has been brought up. Although the things in the return capsule are valuable, they are of no use to ordinary people." The astronaut looked at the data memory brought back by Zhang Chengguang, and then came back to explain the situation to Chen Xin: "  In addition, Lao Zhang brought up the self-defense pistol prepared for us in the return capsule, and he said that when you get us to the place, the pistol can be left with you."

    For astronauts, a pistol is nothing, and giving it to Chen Xin as a reward is no big deal.

    Of course they would not have done this before the disaster, but after what happened just now, Zhang Chengguang obviously had a clear understanding of the current situation and environment. In his opinion, a pistol in exchange for Chen Xin's help was very  Good deal.

    Chen Xin didn't care about this, just nodded, accelerated the speed and got rid of the three cars following him, then readjusted the direction on the map and drove towards Chibi City as planned.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    After experiencing such a minor crisis, Chen Xin became familiar with the three astronauts, and also learned the names of the other two astronauts besides Zhang Chengguang, Zhao Wu and Zhang Yao.

    After parking the car on the side of the road, Chen Xin returned to the living cabin. The six data memories that Zhang Chengguang removed from the return cabin were placed on the table in front of him.

    Looking at these six black brick-like memories, Chen Xin did not show too much curiosity. He just said hello to Zhang Chengguang and the other two astronauts and asked: "It's almost lunch time, do you want to eat?"  What to order?¡±

    Hearing Chen Xin talk about eating, the expressions on the faces of the three astronauts became vivid.

    For more than half a year, they have been eating space food in space. Although astronauts are treated very well, the food they eat is nutritious and tastes good, and there are even a variety of dishes to choose from.  , but they still miss the meals on the ground even more.

    But when Chen Xin saw their animated expressions, he poured cold water on them: "I brought quite a lot of food, including canned food, shelter food, and some energy bars. It's still enough to satisfy my needs."  of."

    "Cans, energy bars?" The three astronauts looked at each other in confusion, and finally Zhang Chengguang asked: "Are supplies already in such short supply now? Doesn't the country have emergency reserves of meat and vegetables? How come there are only  To the point of cans and energy bars?¡±

    "National emergency reserve? I don't know about this. My city may not have used it." Chen Xin made a shrug gesture and took out an evacuation plan from the cupboard in the eyes of the three astronauts with confusion.  The food was placed on the table: "This is a standard shelter food. It contains rice reserves from before the disaster, rat meat and mealworms raised artificially after the disaster, mushrooms produced in the underground greenhouse, and a small amount of fresh vegetables.  .

    Such a standard shelter food is all the food that survivors in the shelter can get in a day. Only those who go out to work can get two energy bars. Ordinary people can only get one.  .  "

    The situation introduced by Chen Xin obviously shocked the three astronauts who had just landed, but it is no wonder that the disaster had not really struck when they went to space, and it can be said that everything was normal in terms of material supply.

      And when they were in the sky, they also ate standard astronaut supplies. Although they had anticipated the situation on the surface, they did not expect that the conditions would become so difficult.

    "Let's eat this. This should be enough for the three of us." Zhang Chengguang picked up the shelter food on the table and decided that the three of them would just eat this portion of the shelter food, so as to adapt to the current life of shortage of supplies in advance.

    Chen Xin smiled, waved his hand, and took out dehydrated vegetables, rice, and a can of luncheon meat from the cupboard: "Although the official shelter does eat the one you have, I still have some other things here.  Yes, there is really no fruit, but there is still some dehydrated vegetables and rice, and the canned food is luncheon meat, I hope you don¡¯t dislike it.¡±

    With that said, Chen Xin put a pot on the induction cooker on the counter and prepared to make lunch.

    "Thisis really costing you money!" Zhang Chengguang looked at the food Chen Xin brought out and could only say a few polite words.

    After all, if what Chen Xin said is true, then the food he is bringing out now can be regarded as a very sumptuous treat in this world.

    However, this also made the three astronauts feel deeply worried about the current situation of Yan Country.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    After lunch, Chen Xin still drove through Chibi City as planned. Unsurprisingly, he also found the shelter in Chibi City, but neither Chen Xin nor the three astronauts in the car.  , without any thought of stopping to communicate with the official shelter in Chibi City.

    Chen Xin did not need to stop to replenish supplies because he had sufficient supplies, but the three astronauts felt that the data they carried was too important. It was better to do less than to do more. Going directly to three towns would be a waste of time in this county-level city.  Much stronger.

    After all, Chibi City is only a county-level city. Even if they contact the local county government and official shelters, the help they can get is very limited. At most, they can replenish some supplies or send a few police or armed police to protect them.

    But for Chen Xin and the three astronauts, it is actually not necessary or meaningful.

    Rather than attracting unnecessary attention just to find a few people to help, it would be safer to go directly to the three towns.

    So they quickly passed through the urban area of ??Chibi and drove forward along a road with no trace of the road at all.

    Zhang Chengguang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the darkness outside the car window and asked Chen Xin: "Have you been living in this environment for more than half a year?"

    "That's not entirely true. It was fine at the beginning. In the first month, because the meteorite hit, there were fires everywhere and I couldn't get out, so I just stayed in the shelter and suffered. Apart from being a bit difficult, it was not bad at all."  Chen Xin was driving while chatting with Zhang Chengguang. He found that Zhang Chengguang was actually a very talkative person: "After the first month passed, the temperature was not very low, and the environment was not as bad as it is now.  So most people took advantage of this time to come out to collect supplies for exchange.

    However, the Internet has been disconnected and mobile phones cannot be reached. Only some official wired telephones can still make calls. It is difficult to obtain the situation in other places. I don¡¯t know the situation in other places, but the city government in my city can still guarantee supplies.  Although life was a bit bitter due to the lack of food supplies, we were still able to survive without any shortage of food and clothing.  "

    "Sounds like it's not bad?" Zhang Chengguang couldn't help but show a little surprise. According to Chen Xin, the situation was indeed not bad.

    Chen Xin also nodded and confirmed what he said: "The first few months were indeed pretty good. It was basically the same as in the 1970s and 1980s or earlier, and food was guaranteed. Overall, it was really good.  .

    But it became more difficult when the temperature dropped. With temperatures as low as tens of degrees below zero, unless you have enough warm clothing or protective equipment, you will freeze in less than half an hour outside.

    Although underground shelters can withstand part of the cold, it can still kill people without heating. Moreover, crop growth and animal breeding are greatly affected in low-temperature environments. A friend of mine¡¯s greenhouse was almost destroyed.  "

    "Cold, dark" Zhang Chengguang's mood became a little complicated and uncomfortable, and the self-blame in his heart came up again. If their mission had not failed, perhaps there would be no such suffering.

    Chen Xin seemed to have seen what he was thinking and said to him: "Don't put too much responsibility on yourself. You have fulfilled your responsibilities and done what you can do. As for it becoming like this, although  No one wants to, but now that things have become like this, let¡¯s look forward! Trying to survive and live a good life now is the most important thing.¡±

    "Thank you!" After being comforted by Chen Xin, Zhang Chengguang smiled at him, but he still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart.

    How could something like this be overcome with just a few words of comfort?  Maybe we just have to wait for Zhang Chengguang to figure it out on his own.

    Chen Xin did not continue to struggle, and continued to drive along the dark "road" with no direction.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Today, this is the most important thing.  "
