nLi Ran screamed, but no one paid any attention to her.
n
n
nEveryone’s eyes were on the man. They followed him as he rushed to Li Ran’s car, hoping to get some food.
n
nIn the end, only the little boy who Li Ran gave some food to earlier was by her side.
n
n
nHis eyes were filled with fear as he clutched his food and water even tighter. In fact, he clutched the water bottle so tightly that he unconsciously crushed it.
nLi Ran was pregnant with a child. She could not afford to be involved in any conflict.
n
n
nShe was afraid that her body might get hurt.
nThere was nothing she could do about what was happening in front of her.
nShe could only watch helplessly.
n
n
n“Mom, you’re finally back. Sob.”
nWhen the little boy saw that the beautiful girl from earlier had returned, tears poured out of his eyes. He hastily handed the leftover food and water to her as if they were precious treasures. He then wiped his tears away.
nLi Ran looked at the girl and was a little surprised.
nThe girl handed her a cell phone and said with a smile, “Here, although the battery is low, you should be able to make a call. The owner said that you can only call for a total of 30 seconds and no more than that. I’ve begged him for a long time to borrow it.”

nLi Ran looked at the girl gratefully and thanked her repeatedly.
nThen, she dialed the number that her mother had left for her. She no longer cared about the situation involving her car.
n‘Let them be.’
nThe phone began producing a beeping sound.
nLi Ran glanced over and shouted, “Take all the food. Just give me the keys after you’re done. I still have other places to go.”
nJust as she finished speaking, a key was thrown in her direction.
n
n
nThe corner of Li Ran’s mouth twitched.
nJust as she was about to walk over and pick the keys up, the little boy did it instead. He handed them to her and shyly said, “Here.”
n“Thank you.”
n“Big sister, don’t listen to their nonsense. You’re a good person!” the little boy said softly.
nLi Ran smiled at the little boy. She felt really warm in her heart.
nThen, a voice could be heard coming from the phone.
n“Hello? Are you Ran Ran?”
nThe voice from the other side was full of anticipation.
nLi Ran immediately said, “Mom, it’s me!”
n“Thank heavens! Ran Ran, you almost worried us to death! Why did you leave your home?!”
nShe had not finished speaking but the phone was snatched away by someone else.
nImmediately, Li Ran could hear her father’s voice. He sounded impatient.
n“Why are you not happy that your daughter is fine? You even scolded her. Seriously!”
n“Geez! Dad, mom, this is someone else’s phone. I only have 30 seconds. Are the both of you together with Lin Nan?”
n“That’s right. Lin Nan is just next to us.”
nLi Ran’s father glanced at Lin Nan, who was looking very eager and anxious.
nThe phone was still in her father’s hand. Just as he was about to continue speaking…
n“Dad, give the phone to Lin Nan!”
n“Ah… Okay.”
n“Lin Nan, I’m at the south of the city, about 1.2 miles from Duyue Supermarket. Where are you? Let’s find a way to meet up.”
n“Where did you get the phone from?”
n“That’s not important. Answer me quickly. I only have 30 seconds.”
n“Alright, be careful. I’ll meet you at the Duyue Supermarket. If you encounter any zombies, park your car and hide nearby. I’ll find you.”
n“Okay.”
n“Not only do you have to be on guard against zombies, but you also have to be careful around humans, understand?”
n“I know. Don’t worry.”
nLi Ran was speaking as fast as she could. There was not much time left.
n“Wait for me. I’m heading there right now.”
n“Okay.”
nLi Ran answered obediently as she held onto her keys tightly.
nSuddenly, no sound could be heard.
nShe looked at the phone and saw that the screen had turned black.
nThe phone had run out of power.
nThe beautiful girl scratched her head helplessly. “The battery is dead. Previously, they spoke to the rescue team for a long time. They were afraid that the rescue team may not find our location.”
n“Thank you. You’ve helped me a lot.”
nLi Ran bowed to the girl. She knew that it was not easy for her to get the phone.
nOtherwise, she would not have been gone for so long.
nThere was no one around her car anymore. Everyone was busy eating the biscuits. Some of them even looked at Li Ran as if she was a deity. She brought them food after all!
nLi Ran did not know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the condition of her car. It was turned upside down. She had no choice but to tidy it up herself.
nThen, she got into the car and prepared to leave.
