Chapter 34: Heading to the Shelter

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The street lamps that were ten meters tall were also covered in snow, and not much could be seen of them.

The situation seemed much worse than what Su Can had dreamed of.

“What a pity,” the mysterious man said with a regretful sigh, “If only we had invented this ointment earlier…”

The mysterious man walked toward the window and continued to sigh.

Another scientist walked over and patted the mysterious man on the shoulder as he said, “Stop blaming yourself. We didn’t cause this disaster. There’s no need to blame yourself.”

“I know, but if we’d invented this earlier, we would’ve saved more lives.”

“I know…”

The other scientists shook their heads silently.

At the same time, Su Can observed these scientists carefully, committing their faces to his memory. If he could recruit all of them, would it be possible to prevent the tragedy they spoke of from happening?

Su Can only thought about saving himself, Li Jiayue, and her parents before. However, what if he could help other people? What if he invited these people to join him and they could invent this ointment in the early days of the apocalypse? Perhaps, he could change the terrible future he saw in his dreams. Even if the change was not big, at least it was something.

Su Can looked out the window. He could not let the situation become so bad. After a moment, he turned around. His gaze was very determined at this moment. He looked around and found a book that contained the names of the scientists under their respective photos.

“Liu Yan, Can Nanshan, Luo Enzhong…”

Based on how familiar the scientists were with the mysterious man, they likely knew each other before the apocalypse. With the mysterious man, he should be able to locate the others easily.

After a moment, a frown appeared on Su Can’s face.

‘Will they agree to join me if I invite them to the shelter? In any case, I have to bring Li Jiayue to the shelter first. After all, there are fewer than ten days left until the apocalypse…’

…

Su Can did not waste time. As soon as he woke up, he made his way to Li Jiayue’s house. Not long after he left, he saw many people walking leisurely outside. Quite a few people were trying to force their way into shops as well, smashing the doors down and grabbing whatever they could inside. A few small fights even erupted in the midst of all this.

“Hey, hurry up and hand over your food!”

Su Can carefully avoided these people. These people were all dangerous, and he did not want to be implicated by them. Just to survive, they behaved unscrupulously.

There were about ten days left before the apocalypse, but the situation was already messy. It would be even more chaotic when the apocalypse arrived.

When Su Can finally arrived outside of Li Jiayue’s house, he called her and asked, “Li Jiayue, are you at home?”

“Yes.”

Su Can sighed in relief. “That’s good. I’m outside your house now. The preparations at the shelter have been completed. Let’s go to the shelter.”

Li Jiayue nodded. “Alright, give me a moment. My parents are in the midst of a discussion in their room. I’ll get them to come with us.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you outside,” Su Can said before ending the call.

Now that the apocalypse was about to begin, Su Can had to contact another person. He quickly sent a message to the mysterious person in whom he had no interest previously.

“I’ve changed my mind. I can consider allowing you to take shelter with me. What’s your plan?”

Not long after Su Can sent the message, he received a reply.

“Are you serious? If it’s true, I’ll come and meet you immediately!”

The corners of Su Can’s lips twitched when he saw how quickly the other party replied.

“Alright. Meet me at the entrance of the shelter.”

At this moment, Li Jiayue walked over with a suitcase in tow.

“Su Can!”

Seeing that Li Jiayue was alone, Su Can asked, surprised, “Where are aunty and uncle?”

“They refused to come,” Li Jiayue said sadly as she shook her head, “My dad says he has important research and experiments to do, and my mother is determined to follow him.”

Su Can frowned upon hearing this. “How can that be? Since you can’t convince them, I’ll give it a try.”

Subsequently, Su Can walked toward the door. However, before he entered, he saw Li Zheng and Zhang Rong walking about with bags of various sizes.

“Dad! Mom!” Li Jiayue rushed forward and held her father’s hand as she said, “Please come with us. Su Can’s shelter has all kinds of facilities. I was helping him with the shelter previously. Why don’t we live together during the apocalypse?”

Li Zheng sighed when he heard his daughter’s words. “My child, I want to go to the lab so I can come up with a solution with my colleagues. We can’t give up yet.”

Li Jiayue could not hide her reluctance at all.

“I know you’re worried about me and your mother, but our research is important. It’ll definitely be beneficial to mankind.”

“But…” Li Jiayue said.

Li Zheng waved his hand and interrupted her. He said resolutely, “That’s enough. Your mother and I have already made up our minds. There’s no need to persuade us anymore.”

After saying that, Li Zheng smiled at Li Jiayue and Su Can.
