Chapter 659: Chapter 659: Returning to the Base
 

How could she possibly not care?

How could she possibly be okay?

Bai Youwei knew the answer deep within her heart.

Even if Shen Mo did not mind her leg, they would not have a happy ending because the disease did not only hurt her body but also her spirit and will!

How could he possibly continue to love her when she became despicable, sensitive, dark and selfish? Even her own mother couldn’t bear her and left her to a nanny, how many feelings could Shen Mo spend on her?

——Why can’t she be more positive, more optimistic, stronger?

It’s like a wealthy man asking a destitute scavenger: Really? As long as you work hard and use your brain, you will definitely make more money, why suffer for this little money?

Conclusion: All nonsense.

If change was that easy, then where would all the pain in life come from?

Bai Youwei closed her sore eyes, gently turned around, faced Shen Mo, and burrowed into his chest.

“I want to sleep.” She said in a hoarse voice, “Hold me …”

Shen Mo held her.

She continued: “Hold me a bit tighter …”

Shen Mo’s thin smile curled up, as he hugged her tighter, “Is it tight enough now?”

“Mmm…tight enough.” With her eyes closed, Bai Youwei softly said, “Goodnight.”

“Goodnight.”

…

The next day, they returned to Shanghai by car.

As they hadn’t been in a rush, they’d taken a couple of rests along the way, not reaching Shanghai until after dark.

The sight in the city was shocking.

For the streetlights along the roads were all brightly lit!

They had electricity.

Everyone found it incredulous, gazing out the window, unable to believe their eyes, repeatedly confirming whether those lights were candles or props?

It wasn’t until they saw Yan Qingwen who had come to meet them and had a careful inquiry that everyone believed that the city had indeed returned to its original state.

The vanished electricity and signals had all returned.

They finally truly felt the significance of King taking over the territory.

Bai Youwei didn’t exactly like the word “take over”, because this land never belonged to anybody, or in other words, it belonged to each and every person living here.

She felt it would be better to change the word, for example, “reclaim”.

Reclaiming their world from the hands of death game.

Yan Qingwen said: “We knew you’d be back today, so we’ve been waiting here since the morning. Professor Song is eager to see you.”

Shen Mo asked him: “How’s the situation in the city?”

“The areas covered by the puzzle pieces have all returned to normal.” Yan Qingwen looked at the lights on the side of the road and sighed, “As you can see, all the electricity systems are running normally, there are signals, and a temporary network has been set up to meet basic communication needs… Some people who fled to the countryside for refuge have returned and there are quite a few people in the city now.”

He paused and then added: “But we might not be able to keep them here. More people could lead to chaos, and food supply is also a problem. Unlike the countryside, the city cannot sustain itself.”

Du Lai asked: “Do we need to see Professor Song too?”

“Everyone should.” Yan Qingwen looked at Fu Miaoxue standing by his side, “Both King and citizens should probably go and see what Professor Song has found.”

What thing?

Everyone looking at each other with confusion then followed Yan Qingwen to the base headquarters.

…

With the return of electricity, the conditions at the base were much improved. Bai Youwei and Shen Mo entered the brightly lit building and saw a lot of new equipment and facilities.

Now that the puzzle pieces had connected cities like Nanjing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou, there were a lot more ways to acquire research equipment. They no longer needed to worry about the supply transport teams encountering the death games on the road.

Outside Professor Song’s lab, there were security personnel on guard.

They must have been informed beforehand. Seeing Yan Qingwen coming back with people, the security personnel automatically opened the door.

Inside the door, there were countless computers, instruments and various display screens.

And all the screens were frozen on the same image——

It was a diamond-shaped geometric figure floating in the air.
