My MCV and Doomsday

Chapter 501: Small World

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

Lots of people were walking around on the streets, and naturally, Jiang Liushi and Ran Xiyu had not paid attention to any of them. It had never crossed their mind that someone would recognize them.

"When I saw you from afar, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. Xiyu!" A young girl ran in front of Ran Xiyu excitedly. She grasped Ran Xiyu's hands and stared at her to make sure it was truly her.

The young girl seemed a little older than Ran Xiyu. Her face was pretty, but she was encumbered by too much clothing, even wearing an apron.

Ran Xiyu was flabbergasted, staring at the young girl before her. "Xiaochu! It's really you!?"

"Xiyu, do you know each other?" Jiang Liushi asked.

"Yes. She is the daughter of one of my father's friends. She is Jiang Xiaochu," replied Ran Xiyu.

Jiang Liushi nodded. Ran Xiyu was the princess of the Ranke Group. Her father's friend must have had a similar status. Logically speaking, the young girl was also treated like a princess before the virus outbreak.

Ran Xiyu was a little bit surprised. Xiaochu's father had been the CEO of a famous network company before doomsday. In other words, they should be amongst the elites that had been transferred in advance. Many of the girls walking around wore the same clothes as Jiang Xiaochu. They were all female workers, who were responsible for cleaning commodities such as the clothes other people bought. Why would her friend look like that?

"Xiyu, I really didn't expect to see you here. It seems that life has treated you good. You are more beautiful than before," Jiang Xiaochu said excitedly.

"Have you been in the Jiangning Safety Zone all this time? Why did we meet each other only now?" Jiang Xiaochu asked curiously.

Ran Xiyu shook her head and answered, "No, my family met some accidents. Let's not talk about this now. I have joined a survivor's squad."

"Survivor's squad?" Jiang Xiaochu asked in surprise. In her mind, Ran Xiyu was a quiet and fragile girl. How could she have joined a survivors' squad, which had to fend off the attacks of zombies and other terrifying existences at any time? That was a quite dangerous endeavor for many ordinary survivors in Jiangning Security Zone. They would all flee as far as possible the moment they encountered such a terrible existence. Of course, the survivors' squads in Jiangning always looked down upon ordinary survivors. When Jiang Xiaochu thought about that, she looked worriedly at Ran Xiyu. She was beautiful, so wouldn't her team members harass her all the time?

"Yes." Ran Xiyu answered and smiled.

Jiang Xiaochu nodded and looked toward Jiang Liushi, before asking, "Is this your boyfriend?"

"Ah?" Ran Xiyu looked at Jiang Liushi awkwardly and explained quickly, "No. He is the captain of our squad, Jiang Liushi. Captain Jiang..."

Noticing Ran Xiyu's performance, Jiang Liushi couldn't help but laugh lightly. Usually, Ran Xiyu looked quite cold, and he never had thought she could actually be so cute.

"Oh, your captain. Your captain is your boyfriend, oh, I understand…" Jiang Xiaochu looked relieved.

"Well, how about you and your family? What happened? Where are your parents?" Ran Xiyu changed the topic at once as her face had turned cherish-red.

"I...My parents are here too. We live nearby," Jiang Xiaochu answered.

"Oh, then I should go to see them. But what's with your situation?" Ran Xiyu asked in confusion.

Since her parents were there, Jiang Xiaochu should have been treated as an elite.

"I like to come out and earn things by myself. Since you have joined a survivor's squad, you must be working harder than me. I just sell my strength," replied Jiang Xiaochu vaguely.

"Do you remember Zhang Haojing?" asked Jiang Xiaochu.

"I remember him." Ran Xiyu frowned and asked, "But why do you ask?"

"He is also in the Jiangning Safety Zone. You should be careful not to meet him... Oh, I have to go back to work. Xiyu, come back again. I want to talk with you some more and share our experiences. Oh yeah, take this." Jiang Xiaochu winked.

Suddenly, Ran Xiyu felt something in her pocket. After that Jiang Xiaochu ran back hurriedly. Ran Xiyu saw her running to a store with stacked dirty packages of food. Although they were pretty far, Ran Xiyu could still smell the stench coming from the dirty packages her friend was cleaning. She was sure that it was unbearable for Jiang Xiaochu to stand so close to them.

Jiang Liushi had been observing Ran Xiyu the whole time.

Ran Xiyu reached into her pocket, and then took out a small bag of soft candy. It was put by Jiang Xiaochu secretly. Jiang Xiaochu was very poor, but she had still given Ran Xiyu what she could give.

Ran Xiyu took a swift decision after her friend's noble gesture. "Brother Jiang, could I get my share in advance? I want some rice and mutant meat."

"Of course," said Jiang Liushi.

"Xiaochu's father had always been taking care of me. Our families' relationship was also good. Although people are not the same as in the past, we cannot disregard past relationships," explained Ran Xiyu.

"It's good to be alive. Brother Jiang, rest assured that I just want to help them. After all, we won't stay here for long. After we leave, they will have to rely on themselves." Ran Xiyu was a person who paid more attention to ties of friendship.

"I trust you. Who is Zhang Haojing?" asked Jiang Liushi. He guessed that she had some unpleasant memories of him.

"He is a relative Jiang Xiaochu. You don't have to worry about him," Ran Xiyu answered.

It was obvious that she didn't want to talk about it anymore, so Jiang Liushi didn't ask again.

Jiang Liushi also thought that Jiang Xiaochu's situation was a little strange, but his beliefs aligned with what Ran Xiyu said earlier, it was indeed a happy occasion to be alive after doomsday.

"What a small world. After the Regions' establishment, it will become even smaller. I wonder how many people I knew in the past are still alive and if I'll have the chance to meet them," said Ran Xiyu

In reality, the world wasn't small at all, but the areas where human could still live were greatly restricted…

"Let's go back. We have to make preparation to search for the helicopters," said Jiang Liushi.

In two day, He Junhong should have gathered all the materials Jiang Liushi had listed. After collecting the helicopters' parts, they would pass by Hejiang Town directly.

Every time Jiang Liushi thought about his MCV's upgrade, he could not help feeling excited. Currently, the world may be a small place, but as long as Jiang Liushi could upgrade the MCV, the world for him and his team would only become grander. They could traverse any road and go anywhere they pleased!
