Then, the cat leaped forward and quickly ran ahead. Xiao Fan hurriedly pulled An Ran and An Ni to follow.
Circling around the cafeteria, Xiao Fan reached the garden behind the classroom office building. In the garden, there was a pond, but it was dried up. Upon closer inspection, he noticed a tall iron gate at the pond's drainage point, about one meter high.
"Exactly!" Xiao Fan's eyes lit up, but he remained vigilant. They had hidden in this secluded place for a reason.
"There must be something fishy!" Xiao Fan squinted his eyes. He knew that blindly entering would be dangerous.
Just then, Xiao Fan spotted a figure briefly disappearing behind the iron gate. "As expected, there are people!" Xiao Fan snorted and pretended not to have noticed, continuing to walk ahead.
"Unbelievable! Beneath this pond, there's an empty space!" Carefully examining the surroundings, Xiao Fan suddenly realized that next to Third High School, there was the Yu Lin City's second-largest supermarket, Hui Fu Garden Supermarket.
"What's behind that wall…" Xiao Fan instantly understood how they had been sourcing their food. He guessed that they had been getting their supplies from the supermarket's warehouse.
With this realization, Xiao Fan pretended to return empty-handed and left the area. At that moment, behind the iron gate, a robust high school student with a fireman's axe breathed a sigh of relief. "Phew! Finally, they're gone!" The sturdy high school student sat down on the ground.
"Boss, what are you afraid of?"
A high school student with glasses beside him sneered.
"You think you understand? He's able to come in here all alone, he must be an evolved one!"
The sturdy young man rolled his eyes.
"Hmph! Evolved ones aren't that big of a deal. We're evolved too!"
The student with glasses sneered.
"Regardless, we should be cautious until we figure out the stranger's background," the sturdy student said warily.
"But hey, that woman with him looks quite hot!"
"Haha, you noticed too?"
Lustful desire filled the eyes of the man with glasses.
"You little brat, don't think that I didn't see it. Just now, my eyes were fixed on that butt, almost wanting to pounce on it!"
The robust man chuckled and then picked up a fire axe, walking through a passage that was only a little over a meter tall.
However, as he continued, the passage grew wider and taller.
Just like it was written in ancient texts: "Initially, it's extremely narrow, only allowing one person through, but after walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly opens up."
Before long, a spacious hall appeared in their sight.
"Da Xiong, how's it going?"
A burly man who stood close to two meters tall asked in a rough voice.
"Teacher, it seems to be an evolver, accompanied by a little girl and a woman; they walked in a circle and left," the student known as Da Xiong replied truthfully.
"A little girl? A woman?"
Upon hearing this, the robust teacher couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Why didn't you bring them in?" the teacher asked.
"I... I was afraid of causing trouble!" Da Xiong's face suddenly changed.
"Don't be afraid. President Wang is already a third-level evolver. No matter who comes in, they'll be dead as soon as they enter!"
That teacher said confidently.
Just at this moment, a frail man in his fifties or sixties suddenly walked out on the other side of the corridor.
This man had gray hair, wore glasses, and had a face showing signs of age.
However, beneath the frames of his glasses, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
"The number of female students we have imprisoned is now less than twenty. Think of a way to find more for me!"
After saying this, the gray-haired old man turned and left.
"If you can't find them, you know the consequences!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present had their faces change.
"Damn it! Quickly go outside and see if that person has left or not!"
The burly teacher kicked Daxiong.
However, when Daxiong opened the iron door to look outside, Xiaofeng had already left the school.
At this moment, Xiao Feng had arrived at the supermarket next to Sanzhong Middle School.
The supermarket had already been looted.
There wasn't even a single piece of candy left.
Everywhere, there were disarrayed shelves.
Occasionally, though, you could see some everyday items.
Such as laundry detergent, washing powder, and some brand-new basins and the like.
After wandering around, Xiao Feng arrived at the supermarket's back door.
Passing through the back door, Xiao Feng reached the supermarket's warehouse.
The supermarket and the warehouse were separated by a road that was more than three meters long.
Usually, goods were delivered by driving vehicles into this area to unload.
The doors of the warehouse were all locked at this moment.
Just as Xiao Feng was preparing to force the door open, one of the rolling doors was slowly raised.
Xiao Feng immediately hid.
Peeking out, he saw a disheveled girl with tattered clothes, looking exhausted, limping as she ran out from inside.
She fled in haste, but in the next moment, several students in school uniforms rushed out from the rolling door.
They were carrying weapons and didn't dare to shout loudly. They immediately charged toward the girl.
Seeing this, Xiaofeng immediately recognized them as students from Sanzhong Middle School.
The girl ran towards Xiaofeng, and as the others were about to catch up, Xiaofeng reached for his Barrett and then put it away.
Then, with a quick motion of his right hand, a kitchen knife appeared in his grasp.
As the girl ran up to him and saw Xiaofeng with the kitchen knife, she let out a scream and collapsed.
Looking at the unconscious girl, Xiaofeng couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.
Just at that moment, two male students chased after them.
Seeing this, Xiaofeng didn't hesitate and swung his kitchen knife.
With a swift motion, he struck down both male students.
After looking around, Xiaofeng dragged the two bodies to the side and closed the rolling door.
If things went as expected, this girl was most likely someone who had escaped from the school.
Xiaofeng needed to find a way to wake her up now.
Looking around, Xiaofeng carried the girl and headed to the second floor of the supermarket.
This seemed to be the former office area for supermarket employees.
Once upstairs, Xiaofeng broke into a room and placed the girl on a bed.
From his backpack, he took out water and food, and Xiaofeng cut the braised pork knuckle into small pieces and mixed it with mineral water, which he then gave to her to drink.
Before long, the girl coughed and woke up.
"Don't come near me, don't come near me!"
The moment she woke up, she reflexively moved backward.
Her eyes were filled with fear, and she looked at Xiaofeng with a confused and anxious expression.
"Don't worry, I saved you, and you're safe now!"
Xiaofeng quickly stepped back, not wanting to further agitate the girl.
"Are you hungry? There's food and water here; you should eat something!"
Xiaofeng pointed to the food and water on the bed.
Seeing these items, the girl's spirit did indeed stabilize.
