Chapter 216 He Sneaked In
"Hey, isn't that a bit too generous and righteous?" Lu An felt that Chu Bai was a bit too idealistic. He really didn't know how this person had survived until now in the apocalypse.
"We just need to take those experts away; as for the rest, I think we need the administrator to give the go-ahead."
Yu Miaomiao reminded them of the purpose of their trip to the city.
"We can't delay any longer. Inner City is too heavily guarded right now, I can't take you in directly. Find that vendor to help us sneak in." There are people waiting for them outside the city.
"Those experts must be in Inner City." Yu Miaomiao was actually 50% certain that as long as he could infiltrate Inner City, he could find those people.
She didn't want to waste any more time.
I just want a quick victory.
The group quickly returned and found the vendor.
A round of haggling ensued.
"50 cans of meat. That's the market price." The vendor didn't mince words, immediately asking for 50 cans of meat.
In this apocalyptic world, who else but the benefactors of Inner City could have so many supplies?
Yu Miaomiao curled the corners of her lips, looking at the vendor with a half-smile.
"Be realistic, give me the bottom price. I think there are many capable people in this city, and it's not just you who will be of use."
Yu Miaomiao didn't believe the vendors' nonsense about knowing the gatekeeper; they were probably just trying to hide them and sneak in.
Upon hearing this, the vendor's eyes flickered, clearly moved by Yu Miaomiao's words.
He glanced around to make sure no one else was watching the transaction, then lowered his voice and said, " Little Girl, it seems you really want to go in. Fine, since you're in such a hurry, I'll tell you the truth: forty cans of meat, enough to take all of you in, no less."
Yu Miaomiao nodded, indicating that he accepted the price. "Deal. But we need to act immediately; we can't wait too long."
The vendor nodded, gesturing for Yu Miaomiaoand her companions to follow him.
He began packing up his stall, whispering, "Come with me, and try not to attract attention."
"Once it got a little dark, we'd blend into the delivery crowd and go inside."
Yu Miaomiao and her companions followed the vendors, trying to keep a low profile and avoid attracting any unnecessary attention.
They knew that once they entered the Inner City, they had to be extremely careful with every step they took.
As night fell, the vendors led them to the entrance of Inner City.
At this time, a number of small convoys transporting supplies had already gathered at the entrance.
The vendors hid them behind a handcart full of goods, telling them to stay close to the goods and try not to show themselves.
The inspection process went more smoothly than expected.
The guards were mainly concerned with whether the cargo manifest matched the actual cargo, and did not conduct a thorough search of Yu Miaomiao and others who were hidden among the cargo.
And so, they successfully entered the Inner City.
The world is a giant makeshift operation; maybe the vendors and the gatekeepers will share the spoils, but in the end, nobody cares whether someone has infiltrated the Inner City.
Upon entering Inner City, the vendors quickly left to avoid arousing suspicion.
Following their previous plan, Yu Miaomiao and her companions began searching for the experts who might be imprisoned or hidden.
They knew time was of the essence and they had to find their target and devise a rescue plan as soon as possible.
Using the information he had gathered, Yu Miaomiao guided the team silently through Inner City, avoiding patrolling guards and other places that might cause trouble.
As night deepened, they became more cautious in their actions.
