I’m A Wasteland Giant Chapter 59 – The Complex Air Defense Cave

Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Complex Air Defense Cave

The two continued on their journey, some rooms on both sides of the corridor had people sleeping in them, while others were empty and deserted.

“Have you seen my parents?”

Each time they passed a room with people, Du Gang asked Chu Zixuan the same question.

He had previously shown Chu Zixuan photos of his parents at his house. Unfortunately, the answer he kept getting was always “No!”

All other paths were dependent on these six main ones. Most of them were like a labyrinth, where an unfamiliar person could easily get lost.

Soon, Du Gang found himself lost while walking, upon reaching a fork in the road, they noticed that several people were stationed in one of the passages.

“What are you doing?”

Long before they approached, the stationed people shouted loudly.

As Du Gang and his companion got closer, they saw that these people were dressed in police uniforms. “I’m here to find my parents! ”

“Who are your parents?”

Du Gang pulled out a family photo from his pocket featuring him and his parents, and handed it over, “My father is Du Kang and my mother is Liu Ling.”

The police officers remained vigilant, holding up their weapons and watching them, but one of them took the photo.

After each officer confirmed that the boy in the photo resembled the strong man standing before them, they shook their heads, “I haven’t seen nor heard of these people before. This is the Food Reserve Channel, you should go check other places!”

After saying this, one of the men handed the photo back to Du Gang.

Seeing this, Du Gang was slightly disappointed, but not discouraged, he then asked, “Where should I go if I want to find someone?

Among the officers, one who seemed to be their leader pointed to a middle passageway and said, “Follow this passage and you will come across a large hall, that’s where the leaders assign tasks. You can go there and ask the personnel if there’s a population count…”

“Thank you!”

After obtaining the answer, Du Gang bid the officers goodbye and quickly headed towards the designated path.

They walked for more than a hundred meters, passing by dozens of rooms without finding his parents. After making a turn, they saw a very large hall appear before them. Around the hall, they could see numerous passageways, above which numbers on pieces of paper were posted.

There were desks and chairs arranged in the hall where administrative officers were seated. Behind them, there was a line of people, standing in a queue that was long enough to fill an entire passage.

Chu Zixuan whispered, “This seems to be food registration. Seems like the people who went out to find supplies have returned. It’s kind of like a scoring situation…”

On seeing Du Gang’s glowing eyes fixed on him, he shook his head and said,

“No, I checked when I first saw these people. Your parents are not here.”

Seeing that the staff were busy working, Du Gang didn’t disturb them. Instead, he approached a middle-aged man who had just finished registering and was about to leave.

“Excuse me, sir, have you seen my parents?”

Du Gang took out the photo again and handed it over as he spoke.

The middle-aged man seemed in a good mood and asked with a smile, “So, you got separated from your parents? This shelter is indeed complicated, I can only remember which passage I reside in…”

After the man rambled for a while, he finally shook his head, “I haven’t seen them, there are quite a few people living here…”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Du Gang quickly asked another question,

“Are all of you here people who go out to find supplies?”

He knew from previous inquiries that those who stayed in the shelter needed to work. They were divided into two groups: those who kept watch at night and those who went out to find supplies during the day.

“Right, we’re all here. We all returned as a group with a team leader… I was the first one to finish registration. Your parents might be in line, you can just wait here!”

Du Gang, on the other hand, furrowed his brows, “Could it be, that my parents are the ones responsible for night watch?”

Meanwhile, Chu Zixuan suddenly glanced back at Ma Li who was being carried by Du Gang.

“Du Gang, I may have found Ma Li’s parents!”

“Quick, let’s go, take me with you!” Du Gang hurriedly said.

Before the end of the world, he had spoken to his parents over the phone and knew they were with Ma Li’s parents. If he found Ma Li’s parents, he could find out where his parents went.

‘Whoa whoa, no need to push!”

“Where are we going? The doors outside are all closed….”

Du Gang was quite a big man; he had to squeeze through the rows of people crowded in the corridor and his passage triggered a burst of noise.

Although the light in the corridor was dim, everyone present was not blind. They could see Du Gang’s well-developed muscles. Despite some verbal complaints, nobody considered physically confronting him. Shortly, they squeezed up to where Ma Li’s parents were.

“Uncle Ma, Auntie Ma!”

As they approached, Du Gang yelled out quickly.

This time, they were the ones who looked confused, looking up at Du Gang’s towering figure, they could not recognize him for a moment.

“You

“It’s me, Du Gang!”

“Du Gang?”

Upon hearing that, Ma Li’s father moved closer, examined Du Gang’s face carefully and finally recognized him, “It’s you! My goodness, you’ve grown so tall in half a year…Wait, weren’t you in Nanyuan city?”

Du Gang nodded, “We’re back, and I came with Ma Li!”

As he spoke, he twisted to one side to show Ma Li, who was slung on his back.

The middle-aged couple couldn’t control themselves any longer and rushed forward as soon as they saw Ma Li. “Ma Li, what happened to you?!!”

“Son, wake up. It’s your mother…”

Seeing their desperate concern, Du Gang quickly said, “He’s still alive, but a bug bit off one of his legs…”

Upon hearing this, Ma Li’s parents immediately burst into tears.

“My poor child…”

Hearing their cries, those who were initially blocked in the passage and about to voice their complaints, shut their mouths. They all tried to give comforting words as they moved forward, “It’s good that he’s still alive!”

They didn’t know that Du Gang and his companions came from Nanyuan, they just assumed they were bitten by a bug in the city.

Du Gang waited in the corridor for Ma Li’s parents to calm down and regain some stability, then he asked, “Uncle Ma, Auntie Ma, do you know where my parents went?”

At this point, Ma Li’s father finally snapped back to reality, his brows knitted together, he said worriedly, “You guys really came back. Did the military start to act already… Your parents… After dawn yesterday, when they found out the bugs were asleep, they left for Nanyuan to find you…”

“We… because… we were worried that if you came back and found no one here… so…”

However, Du Gang couldn’t hear anything beyond this.

The words “Your parents went to Nanyuan yesterday morning to look for you!” echoed in his mind.

Those words hit Du Gang like a thunderbolt in a clear sky. He got so dizzy that he almost collapsed on the spot. Luckily, Chu Zixuan was quick enough to hold him up.

Last night!

That meant his parents had spent a night outside, and it was the same night when Ma Li lost a leg, Ji Zhiwen and Cao Yongyi died, An Ya left, and the entire Xingyuan County turned into ruins!

Du Gang dared not think any further….
