"Yes, you can't come out yet. You have to wait until Expert Mao provides us with accurate data and a response. If he confirms the pathogen has been eradicated, only then can you come out."
A guard looked into Ergou's eyes and said.
"You should have mentioned earlier, alright then, I'll head back."
"Uncle Dacheng, you should head back to the village first. I still have some matters to handle here, and I'll be able to leave in a couple of days."
Chen Ergou told Chen Dacheng.
"Alright then, Ergou, take care of yourself. I'll head back now."
Seeing Chen Ergou's determined expression, Chen Dacheng compromised, bid farewell to Chen Ergou, and started walking towards Luoyang Village.
After Chen Dacheng left, Chen Ergou asked the guard again.
"So what you meant was, as long as that Expert Mao confirms that everyone in the village has fully recovered and the threat has been eradicated, I can leave, right?"
"Yes, that's right!"
The guard spoke slowly.
"Alright."
