Chapter 111: Return
"Isn't it a bit unlikely?" He Ying was a bit doubtful.
"In theory, it's not very likely, but with such a large granary, Qingbei won't easily let go of it."
"But didn't you say there might be insects and small animals in the granary?"
"I don't know, maybe they have special methods."
"How about I go and investigate?"
He Ying seemed to recall the old days and was actually a little eager to give it a try.
Chen Mu also wanted to know what was inside, but still hesitated, saying, "The front is too open and flat. You might be discovered even before reaching the entrance."
He Ying's eyes lit up with an idea, "We can go through the grass on the side."
"Isn't that too dangerous?"
"It should be fine. I used to walk through the grass often. The real danger comes from toads and frogs, but other things like earthworms, although they look terrifying, won't attack people."
"Frogs..." Lu Shanshan shuddered at the thought. They only used to move around near the teaching building and had never encountered frogs before.
"It's okay. As long as you don't move, they won't see you. I once spent over half an hour facing off with a toad, and in the end, it left first."
He Ying, unlike his quiet demeanor at home, became cheerful after going outside. He talked about his past experiences, and despite the fear he felt at that time, there was a hint of nostalgia.
"Alright."
Chen Mu also decided to take the risk. After all, if they succeeded, it would save them a lot of trouble. As for exploring One Middle School, they could do that later.
"We both will go."
Chen Mu said to Wei Dalei, "Old Wei, you and Lu Shanshan and Xue Xu stay here, hide. We and He Ying will be back soon."
"I'll come with you guys," Wei Dalei said as he reached for the giant lumberjack axe on the car.
His shield and weapons were not very convenient to carry around, so they were left on the flatbed truck when they went out.
"No need, we're just going to scout the path. If there's no one inside, I'll signal you to bring the car over. Keep an eye on that direction, and I'll give you a signal when the time comes."
"Okay."
Wei Dalei didn't have any objections. Since Chen Mu said so, that's how they would do it.
Chen Mu didn't waste any words and quickly followed He Ying, carefully walking to the edge of the concrete road, hunching down.
The height difference between the road and the greenery was about 5 centimeters.
At this height, jumping down wouldn't cause any harm, especially since the ground below was soft soil.
The two tiny individuals crouched down and jumped down simultaneously.
He Ying landed gracefully with light and agile feet.
On the other hand, Chen Mu didn't use an umbrella this time, as this height was too insignificant for it to be of any use. After landing, he squatted down to lessen the impact, bracing himself with both hands. Although he didn't look as relaxed as He Ying, he managed it neatly.
Evidently, the people from Qingbei had taken away all the rice on the floor and were even considering taking the things stored on the shelves.
Chen Mu furrowed his brows and remained silent.
"What's wrong?" He Ying asked.
"Since you didn't come here, you wouldn't know, but there were originally many bags of rice piled on the floor in this room, and now they've all been taken away," Chen Mu explained.
"How many bags were there?"
"Probably five bags, around 100 kilograms."
"So much?" He Ying was astonished.
"When we came here initially, we ended up taking only a few handfuls. Compared to that, this is a vast amount," Chen Mu sighed.
Suddenly, He Ying sniffed and said, "Can you smell something?"
Perhaps due to the slightly weaker sense of smell in boys, Chen Mu took some time before detecting it.
"There's a strange smell."
"What's strange? It's the fragrance of jasmine."
"I don't know what jasmine smells like..."
"It's this scent."
"Okay."
Chen Mu didn't want to dwell on this issue and continued, "I wonder why Qingbei needs so much rice. Even with so many people, it would be enough to last a lifetime."
"The main question is, are they going to transport it repeatedly like they did before? That would take so much time..."
Before He Ying could finish her sentence, Chen Mu's expression suddenly changed.
"We need to leave quickly!"
"Huh?"
Before the words could even fully leave his mouth, they heard clanging sounds coming from the door.
It was undoubtedly the people from Qingbei, returning with metal plates.
