I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

265 The Courage to Fight Side by Side

“Really?” Du Yue was not only pleasantly surprised but also a little shocked.

He Xing smirked. “You’ll know if it’s real or not when you try it.” Du Yue nodded. She eagerly picked up her gun and aimed at the entrance of the granary. As expected, she could lock onto the four guards at the entrance.

They were about 30 meters away from the entrance of the granary. 30 meters was not far. With such a short distance, Du Yue would have been able to hit the target she wanted to hit even without the help of a mirror when there was no fog. Now, however, it was impossible. Not to mention 30 meters, if one were to look with the naked eye, they would not be able to see anything beyond three meters due to the fog.

Now, through this mirror, she could actually see her target 30 meters away. Du Yue observed it carefully for a while and asked curiously, “How did you do it?”

!!

“There’s a special light source on this.” He Xing pointed at the edge of the mirror. Du Yue moved closer to take a closer look, and sure enough, she saw light.

Du Yue held the gun and looked around. An idea came to her mind. “If that’s the case, can we make a pair of glasses with the same material as this mirror and see things clearly in the thick fog?”

“I already expected you to ask this question, so I’ve already arranged for it to be custom-made, but it’s not ready yet.”

Du Yue’s eyes glowed with excitement when she heard He Xing’s words. Could this be what telepathy was? No, that was not accurate. She could only say that He Xing was really concerned about her.

No matter what situation she was facing or who she was dealing with outside, he could accurately guess her thoughts and silently accompany and support her. Being completely seen through by someone was something that Du Yue had always avoided. At this point in time, the more people knew about you, the greater the threat they posed to you.

If that person had any ill intentions, then she would have another terrifying enemy. However, Du Yue was not afraid of being seen through by He Xing. On the contrary, she felt at ease. This kind of tacit understanding gave her the courage to fight side by side with him no matter what she was doing.

Du Yue blinked and asked him, “Will it be very expensive?”

“A pair will cost 20 catties of food. It’s quite expensive.”

Du Yue thought about the endless amount of food in her interspace and waved her hand generously. “It’s not expensive! We can afford it!”

Looking at Du Yue’s nouveau riche appearance, He Xing could not help but reach out and scratch the tip of her nose.

Du Yue had stocked up enough food. She would not be able to finish eating it in several lifetimes, so she thought it was not expensive. If it were someone else, they would definitely think it was expensive. After all, at this time, not everyone had 20 catties worth of grain. With this gun, the two’s ambush was like a miracle. As time passed, the sky grew darker and darker. At night, the base, which had no electricity, seemed to be swallowed by darkness. One could not even see one’s own fingers.

Du Yue and He Xing sat in the dark, surrounded by tattered building materials. They did not have to worry about being discovered. The two of them had been waiting for so long, and they were hungry. The ambush was important, but filling their stomachs was also a very important matter. However, at this time, they could not be as bold and decisive as they were at home.

Du Yue brought out two beef burgers and four fried chicken legs. They ate the chicken legs and drank 100% real orange juice. Although they were not in the best environment, the two of them were very satisfied. Du Yue had just put away the boxes that contained the burgers when she heard movement in front of her.

Du Yue and He Xing were stunned. They subconsciously pulled out their guns and looked in the direction of the sound. In the eyes of the others, it was pitch-black. In order to walk in such an environment, one had to turn on the flashlight, but even so, the visibility was limited. At most, they could only see things within three meters.

However, when Du Yue and He Xing looked out through the mirrors attached to the guns, the scene in front of them was as clear as day. Less than ten meters away from them, a group of people was walking quietly in the direction of the granary.
