Chapter 121 - 121: 121 Civilian Rescue

Translator: 549690339

The voice sounded slightly hoarse and weathered, like an old man.

Everyone stopped in their tracks and turned to see another man disembarking from the boat. He was short and nimble on his feet, his trousers rolled up to his knees, looking like an old sailor who frequently worked on boats.

The young men from earlier were all trailing behind the old man, their demeanor completely respectful.

Upon reaching the shore, the old man grinned at Bai Youwei, “Young lady, don’t be afraid! Our island is very safe, there are no dolls, and no people-eating fog. You will be safe there and need not worry about food or lodging. It’s practically like your life before, barring the lack of internet connection.”

Bai Youwei kept up her act, her face full of anxiety as she asked, “But…once on the island, will anyone bully me and my brother?”

She seemed genuinely frightened, her pitiful look compounding as she clung onto the corner of Shen Mo’s clothes.

Shen MO could feel her small hand touching his waist through the thin fabric of his t-shirt…

He warned her with a stern look: Behave.

But she was so engrossed in her performance that she ignored him. The old man laughed and waved his hand, “No one will bully you.”

The burly man behind him also reassured, “Although we’re only a civilian organization, if you work hard and perform well, there’s a chance to go to a safety base established by the government! So, it’s perfectly safe on the island, no one will deliberately cause trouble for you.”

Shen MO calmly stopped her mischievous hand and asked, “What kind of safety base are you talking about? Can you elaborate?”

“It’s established by the Suzhou rescue organization, located on West Mountain Island, which is larger than Sanshan Island and has more resources. However, due to the influx of people sent from neighboring rescue teams, they’ve imposed restrictions on admissions.”

Shen Mo: “Is there a way to get in touch with them?”

The burly man: “You can submit your information tomorrow. If you’re lucky, you might be selected, and then naturally you can go over to that base.” Shen MO asked again: “To whom do we submit it?”

“Just give it to Uncle Zhao.” The burly guy pointed to the old man next to him.

That’s when everyone understood. The elderly man known as Uncle Zhao was currently the only person who could make contact with the government officials. That’s why the young men were so respectful towards him. Shen MO wasn’t very interested in the civilian rescue organization, but the government-established safety base had piqued his interest.

If there really were government personnel there, perhaps he could use them to make contact with the Household Registration Department.

He still couldn’t believe that a fully-functioning, orderly large-scale organization had actually crumbled and disappeared after the doll invasion.

After a brief discussion, the four of them decided to board the boat.

They left their SUV in the service area and brought their personal belongings and some food onboard. On the boat, they learned about some specific conditions on the island from the burly man –

For instance, everyone on the island had their own roles. Some were responsible for fishing, others for chopping wood, and others for cooking. Even the elderly, women, and children could find work suitable to them.

As the saying goes, you reap what you sow.

If someone showed laziness, hindered others, or bullied the weak, they would be immediately expelled from the island once discovered.

Therefore, the atmosphere on the island was great. Everyone was united and helped each other wholeheartedly. It truly was a breath of fresh air in this end-of-the-world situation.

Of course, all of these were the words of people on the boat. As for the reality, Shen MO and his companions would have to experience it for themselves when they got on the island.

The lake was broad and tranquil, bordered by mountains under the cover of night. They rolled up and down in succession, towering and majestic. One could only wonder what kind of beautiful scenery it would present during the day.

In the distance, they saw faint flickering lights.

As the boat neared, the lights gradually became denser, forming a cluster. Although it didn’t match the “lights of thousands of families” sight, it didn’t fall short.

In context to an uninhabited backdrop, this bit of light brought about a feeling of homecoming..
