You Xi's words changed everyone's faces.

The middle-aged woman in the family of three hugged her son with a panic expression: "What should we do? Wouldn't we be trapped on this island all the time?"

"It's impossible. When we travel, everyone in our family knows that someone will definitely come to save us if there is such a big tsunami!"

"Yes, this situation must be just a temporary situation. With so many people on the island, how could it be that there was no rescue?"

"But the Haiguo government can't take care of itself, so where can we send rescue?"

"It's okay. Even if there is no rescue from Haiguo, our Jingguo will definitely have rescue!"

"But when will that have to wait?"

...

Several people started talking, and Fang Zichen frowned and didn't say anything.

Among these people in the room, he, Xiaolu and Mangmang were in the worst condition. When they participated in the maritime project, they were all in the storage cabinet, and all their luggage, items and property disappeared in the tsunami.

The bread and water on hand were given to them just now, but in this case, everyone didn't have much food. They originally expected to go to Wanghaishan with the rescue team to get some supplies, and then wait for people outside to rescue them.

But now there is no external rescue in the l island for a short period of time, which means that supplies, water and medicine are limited. I don’t know how long it will last after going to Wanghaishan…

Meng Lu was not as far as Fang Zichen thought. She only knew that she was tired and hungry now. Although bread could fill her stomach, it was not delicious at all. And there was only one bag, and the three of them would be gone for a penny.

Her beautiful and expensive skirts, shoes, and various skin care products, cosmetics, and mobile phone wallet passport were all lost in the tsunami.

She is now without any clothes, not even wearing shoes, and has no sense of security at all, and she is panicked in her heart: "Then are we still going to see the sea and mountains? When we came here just now, the third batch of rescue and evacuation outside had already set off. I heard that there is still the last batch of rescue ships. If we don't leave and stay here..."

Needless to say, everyone knows that all the people in the hotel have been exposed. What can they do if they are left behind?

"Wanghaishan must go." Lin Wu spoke, calming everyone again. "The water and electricity here will be cut off at any time, and the supplies are being transferred to the mountain by the rescue team, so it is meaningless to leave it."

"Then what are we still doing here?" Meng Lu spoke again. She wanted to get some food and water while the hotel staff was still there, and then ask if there were shoes and clothes that could be changed. There was a swimsuit under her T-shirt, and there weren't even pairs of pants.

"I plan to get some supplies first and then look at the sea and mountains." Lin Wu finally reached the point.

His plan was to not walk with the rescue team's ship, but to operate on the old speedboat that Yuan Ning came from the sea.

They had their own boats, so they found a shopping mall that had not been flooded. While the rescue team was still saving people, they didn't have time to search for all the supplies, first get some food and water, then go to the sea and mountains together, find a hotel or a homestay, and stay nearby, and they can take care of each other if there is any situation.

"Has anyone driven away the speedboat?" someone asked.

"The key of the speedboat is here." Yuan Ning spoke. When she got off the boat, she took the key away and did not let anyone find it.

Not only that, she had already done some tricks on the speedboat last night, and even if others got the key, they couldn't drive away. She realized that something was wrong at that time, and when she thought of her lost relatives, she naturally had to prepare early.

There was not much time, and Lin Wu didn't want to delay and walked with the rescue ship. He went to search for supplies and asked everyone to reply directly.

Everyone was not stupid, and said that his plan was very good and he was going to search for supplies together.

Everyone in the room knows that Lin Wu is a surgeon. He has been saving people with illness since yesterday's tsunami. So even though he doesn't know each other, he has a consistent attitude because he trusts Lin Wu.

After Lin Wu finished talking about the time of the concentrated departure, everyone quickly left the room to prepare. Fang Zichen wanted to say something to You Xi, but Xiaolu said that time was limited and they were not ready for anything now. At least they had to find a backpack and find a pair of shoes, right?

In the end, only Yuan Qi and his son were left in the room, Yuan Ning and You Xi.

Lin Wu looked at You Xi: "Where are you?" He noticed that she had not spoken except when she was translating.

Youxi has sufficient supplies and can choose any one. The only thing she is worried about is how to leave L Island.

If she stayed in the hotel forever, she would probably miss the opportunity to leave Island L. After thinking about it, she thought it would be better to follow the large army.

Since you follow the large army, even if you don’t lack materials, you have to stock up on a symbolic basis. Otherwise, those who are independent will only tell others that they have problems.

So she nodded: "I'll be with you."

Lin Wu went back to his room to pack up his things. You Xi had nothing to prepare, so he stayed in the room. Yuan Qi kept Yuanyuan and went upstairs quickly, intending to quickly organize some clothes and items for Yuan Ning.

Yuan Ning had already changed into her T-shirt and trousers with Yuan Qi's help. She got up now and took a T-shirt from Yuan Qi's backpack. She wanted to pull it apart and then circle the processed abdomen.

"I'll do it." You Xi saw that she pulled the wound hard and hurt so that her lips were white and her fingers were trembling. She took the clothes and pulled it open for her and wrapped it around her abdomen.

"Thank you." She said deeply, touching Yuanyuan who was restless beside her, "Thank you too, for saving my sister and Yuanyuan."

"I just reminded me."

"Maybe it's just a reminder to you, but for me, those are the two most important relatives." Yuan Ning looked at her with a serious expression, "I sincerely thank you."

She didn't say much. She was injured now. It seemed fake to say too much, but she had already kept this in mind. Whenever she had the chance, she would definitely help.

Ten minutes later, Lin Wu appeared with a small suitcase. He didn't have a backpack. Fortunately, the suitcase was not big, so he simply put the things he needed in and took them down directly.

Following him was also Siman, who had changed out of the hotel uniform, wore a T-shirt and beach pants, and had a bag on his back.

"He is with us." Lin Wu didn't explain much.

Is this trust again?

Although You Xi was confused, she was just riding on the team, so naturally she would not have any objections.

Soon, the others came after they finished preparing. Fang Zichen, Xiaolu and Mangmang arrived at the latest. The three of them had already changed into swimsuits and put on shoes. Although they were a little unfit, they were at least stronger than barefoot.

Others were impatient, but they also knew that the situation was special and it was not easy to curse people, but their expressions were a little bad.

Xiaolu couldn't see other people's expressions, but she didn't want to pay attention to them at all.

When the tsunami came, they all hid in a safe high-rise building far away from the coast, with all their luggage and supplies at hand. How could they know that the suffering of the tsunami at the sea?

Compared to Zichen and Mangmang, she not only borrowed clothes, pants, shoes from others, but also got a backpack. She even went to the seventh floor to get a breakfast on the last bus.

She is now wearing refreshing clothes and has food and water in her backpack. She is in a good mood and doesn't care about other people's eyes.

To avoid the eyes and ears of others, Siman took out the rubber boat from another locked room and put it down from the terrace of the room where Yuan Ning was. A group of sixteen people, a child, a teenager, and fourteen adults flew in two batches around the exterior wall of the building and climbed up from the outside of the yacht.

When we got on the yacht, we found that there was someone on it. Two local men in their twenties were sitting cross-legged at the gangway entrance, blocking their way forward.

Siman recognized each other, and these two were also hotel staff. Like Siman, they were both from the outer islands and usually lived in the hotel dormitory.

Obviously, they came to swim. But the yacht had no keys and couldn't open. They didn't wait for the rescue team, so what did they do when they swim?

Xiaolu behind Ximan exclaimed softly after seeing the other person's face clearly.

The other party spoke, speaking in a non-standard international language: "Do you go find supplies? Take us with you, all the things in the hotel were taken away by the rescue team, and we don't want to go to the mountain empty-handed."

Lin Wu frowned. How could they know about searching for supplies to bring them to the mountain?

His eyes swept over the people behind him, and Xiaolu turned her head to avoid him when she saw him.

He walked over and grabbed her: "What did you tell them?"

Xiaolu was a little guilty at first, but now she was pulled out to question her, but she was not convinced: "So what I said? There are so many supplies on the island, and you didn't mark it. Let's go together. Besides, I didn't mean it. One of them not only borrowed clothes and shoes for me, but also used his own backpack for me. I thanked them for saying something casually. This is my freedom."

"Xiaolu--" Lin Zichen sat aside and spoke in disagreement.

"You are right, I shouldn't have too much hope for my fellow travelers." Lin Wu let go of her, "I'll just go searching for supplies together. We will be responsible for each other when there are problems on the way. Whether to help you or not is the freedom of others."

"Don't worry, I have hands and feet, and I will solve the problem myself." Xiaolu became angry and immediately pushed back with a backbone.

It was too late for Fang Zichen to say anything. Lin Wu said a few words to Ximan, and Ximan walked towards the two of them. After a while, the two stood up and made way.

With the help of Lin Wu, Yuan Ning started the speedboat, bypassed the building, and came to the back. Siman took one of the two to the rubber boat. They rowed to the terrace of the room and flipped in from the fence. After a while, the two appeared with several portable oil barrels and worked together to transport all the oil barrels to the speedboat.

You Xi leaned against the fence next to the driver's seat and watched Siman add diesel quickly.

On the side, Lin Wu said: "Diesel is used for the hotel's backup generator, which was hidden by Siman in the middle of the night last night."

You Xi understood that Lin Wu brought Siman with him. After all, the speedboat also needs oil. Siman, I'm afraid that he found that the water level had not receded in the middle of the night, began to leave a way out for himself.

You Xi did not doubt Ximan's sincerity in treating others. After all, he did not take food and water with others to row with him in the middle of the night, but he did not make any effort without any bottom line. In special circumstances, it is correct to leave a way out for himself.

The speedboat was full of oil, and the remaining half-oil barrel was carried into the cabin by Siman. Yuan Ning turned the direction again and headed to the other side of the city.

The rubber boat was also collected on the speedboat. Fortunately, although the speedboat was old, the place was quite large, and with two floors above and below, the place was enough for everyone to stay.

Lin Wu accompanied Yuan Ning on the upper floor, paying attention to her wounds while learning to drive a speedboat so that she could take over when she was exhausted.

You Xi stayed on the upper floor because Yuan Qi and his son were on the upper floor. Xiao Lu, who had a conflict with him, naturally did not go up. Fang Zichen wanted to go to the upper floor to find You Xi, but one was grabbed by Xiao Lu, and the other was when he met again this time. He always felt that You Xi was a little cold to them, and hesitated for a long time but still didn't go.

Mangmang was very quiet all the way. When Xiaolu talked to Zichen, she just stayed by her side and was silent. However, whether Zichen stood or sat, she followed her closely, feeling like a frightened chick. She had to stick to him tightly at all times to feel safe.

Xiaolu looked very unhappy about such a miracle, but Fang Zichen had been taking good care of her because the other party was young, so she had nowhere to say about her inner discomfort.

The speedboat is not fast and it is driving smoothly.

The water level was very deep, and some garbage such as buildings and trees soaked on the water for a night sank down, and the water surface still looked dirty.

Siman stood by the bridge, identifying directions and guiding directions all the way.

This building is not tall, and those who should have evacuated have long since evacuated. I didn't meet anyone along the way, but I would find one or two corpses soaked in unrecognizable faces at the base of the wall from time to time.

The destination was the result of discussion between Siman and Lin Wu. It was a new seven-story shopping building that was originally about to open next week, but unfortunately it encountered a tsunami.

Because it has not opened yet, there are few people in it. In addition, it is very far away from Wanghaishan, and the rescue team that will come out to search for supplies will not come here for a while.

The only thing they are worried about is the supply situation inside, after all, it will take several days to open.
