Apocalypse Invasion: Survival on the Infinite Train
The young man in the front braked slightly when Ming Chu spoke. The car speed slowed down, and he kept his eyes on the road without turning back, but he asked curiously: "Sister Ming Chu, what's wrong?"
That fishy smell was even stronger, faintly drifting over from the side.
But on the side of the rural road at night were dark, thick mountains.
Ming Chu said decisively: "Step on the gas, move forward quickly! I need to get to the town as soon as possible!"
No matter what was nearby, it was already dark, and Ming Chu didn't have the same vision at night as she did during the day, so she didn't want to take risks.
The young man instantly imagined that Ming Chu had received news that her friend might not be doing well. He gritted his teeth and stepped on the gas pedal harder than before. He had been driving at 40 km/h, but now he was doing 60 km/h—one-third faster!
But it still wasn't enough.
Ming Chu could sense that the fishy smell was becoming more and more intense. She urged the young man: "Go faster."
"I can't go any faster, or we'll end up in the ditch." The young man said helplessly.
Ming Chu took a deep breath, suppressing the impatience in her heart. She couldn't get into a car accident and get injured before even facing the source of the danger, right?
Besides, maybe that thing just had a strong body odor, which was why Ming Chu could smell it from so far away.
Thinking back and forth, Ming Chu already had a knife in her hand, but because of the angle and the darkness, the two people sitting in the front didn't notice.
Jin Silin was still trying to comfort Ming Chu: "Sister Ming Chu, I've already called a ride-share for you. Don't worry, I'll get you back as soon as possible."
"Hmm." Ming Chu looked at the time absentmindedly. 27 minutes had passed. Even if driving at night was slower than during the day, they should be close to the town.
Light gradually appeared ahead, not just from streetlights, but also from the shops open in the town and the light shining from every household. Combined, they illuminated the entire town.
