I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse Chapter 271 Even Scars Are Medals

271 Even Scars Are Medals

He Xing checked the car carefully and nodded in satisfaction. “It’s nothing serious. There are just some scratches and dents on the car, but I don’t intend to repair them. This is what a car from the apocalypse should look like! These scratches and dents are its medals!”

Du Yue was speechless. Sure enough, this was how most men thought. She took out the car keys from her inters.p.a.ce and opened the car door. The moment the car door opened, the seawater inside the car poured out, along with some very small fish, shrimp, and crabs. The car was not completely sealed, so she was not surprised that the seawater had entered the car. However, she did not expect that these things would also enter.

Du Yue had just put the car into her inters.p.a.ce, so the small fish and shrimp were all dead. Du Yue did not feel that it was a pity. She was just having a headache. It seemed that it would take some effort to clean up the car. If the car was not cleaned up inside and out, the little fish and shrimp left in the car would rot and stink in a few days. Du Yue felt a headache just thinking about the smell.

The task of dismantling the car was left to He Xing. After all, he was very familiar with this kind of work. Du Yue helped from the side. The two of them were busy for more than an hour before they finished cleaning up the car. Since the seats had been soaked in seawater, they should be replaced with new ones. Du Yue had added quite a few of these accessories to her s.p.a.ce. There were also some small parts that had been soaked in water. He Xing dismantled them and replaced them with new ones.

As for the appearance of the car, both Du Yue and He Xing felt that there was no need to care about it. After experiencing a tsunami, other people’s cars would naturally be covered in marks and sand. How could their car look brand new? Would they not be telling others that they had some dark secrets?

Du Yue and He Xing would never do something that would attract the attention of others. “The engine needs to be dried before it can be started. We still have to wait,” He Xing said. Du Yue pondered for a moment before she put the car into her inters.p.a.ce.

“What are you doing?” He Xing asked.

“I want to try and see if I can shake it.”

“Shake it? Are you going to shake the car like you’re was.h.i.+ng clothes?”

Du Yue nodded. “Smart. That’s right.”

While she was talking to He Xing, Du Yue was not idle. She had already started to shake the car dry in the inters.p.a.ce. This method was really effective. The water in the car was really being thrown out. Du Yue split a part of her mind to control the water droplets so that they would not be thrown elsewhere. She placed the car firmly on the ground before using her mind to move the water droplets out of the s.p.a.ce.

He Xing looked at Du Yue in surprise. “Why do I feel like your brain works in a different way from mine?”

Du Yue could not help but laugh. “Why? You’ve also realized that your brain works a little weirdly, haven’t you?”

“Not at all! I’m just a little too far-sighted!” The two of them bantered for a while before He Xing went to check the engine.

All the water in the car had been thrown out. As long as it was left to dry for one more night, they should be able to drive it tomorrow. Now that they had found the car, the two of them did not have to sleep in the ruins anymore. It was definitely more comfortable sleeping in the car than in the tent. The trunk of He Xing’s car was already very large. After he reclined the second row of seats and covered it with a thick cus.h.i.+on, it became a simple double bed. It was not crowded at all for the two of them to lie down, and it was definitely not a problem for them to have a good sleep.

The car’s sunroof could be opened for ventilation. Du Yue reached out to open it, then lay side by side with He Xing on the mat. The surroundings were very quiet, but the two of them did not feel sleepy. Du Yue turned to look at He Xing’s face under the dim light in the car. “Have you thought about where we’re going after this?”

They had heard from the contractor that there was a celestial lord from the interstellar in the second base, which was why they came here. However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. They did not even have the time to confront the celestial lord before they had to kill him. Naturally, they did not get any news about the other interstellar people.

Where should they go next? The world was huge, and it was not an easy task to find a few people from the interstellar in such a huge country. If it were before the apocalypse when all the communication devices working, it might have been easier to investigate.
