Chapter 113 Doomsday Crisis (59)

Time was running out, and Xu Zhinian had no time to wait for the other four to make careful calculations.

She directly interrupted the four silent people: "Why are you not talking? Is it because you can't think of a good idea? Or do you mean that you don't want to abandon the car and leave at all?"

At the end of the sentence, even the tone of his voice went up several pitches, making Eliade tremble while driving.

With this tremor, the van also trembled.

Fortunately, all five people in the car were wearing seat belts, so some unnecessary injuries were avoided.

Iliad came back, stabilized the steering wheel, and continued to drive south along the road.

After a moment of silence, it was Wen Tu who answered Xu Zhinian first.

He said: "Even if you get out of the car, where can you go to escape the heat? It's better to be in the car. At least you can move towards the shelter. It's always getting closer."

After hearing what Wentu said, Balu and Sidney looked at each other, and rarely denied him: "Yes, what's the use of getting out of the car? It's worse than being in this car. If you open the window and move forward quickly, there will be no danger." Would it be cooler if the wind blows in?"

Xu Zhinian smiled: "There's no need to open the windows. It's a car, so it should have air conditioning, right?"

"Yes!" Balu was astonished as if he knew some great treasure: "Elliad, please see if the air conditioner in this van can be used!"

After Eliad responded "Yes", he reached out to turn on the air conditioner in the car.

Although this van has been idle for a long time, all parts and functions including the air conditioner are in good condition.

After Eliade turned on the air conditioner, not long after, a cool breeze blew outward along the air outlet of the air conditioner.

The cool breeze suddenly appeared, and the faces of Balu, Sidney, and Wentu sitting in the back seat of the car were filled with joy.

Only Xu Zhinian's face darkened.

With a dark face, she said quickly: "Turn off the air conditioner!"

Eliade was stunned for a moment, as if he felt the cold gaze from behind. He was so frightened that he turned the switch of the air conditioner back to its original position.

Sidney couldn't control his temper and asked eagerly: "Why do you want to turn off the air conditioner? The sun will rise completely soon, and it will be hot outside. Shouldn't you turn on the air conditioner at this time to make the car cooler?" "

Balu didn't understand either, so he echoed the question: "Yes, Sister Xu. In order to resist the high temperature, isn't it normal to turn on the air conditioner? Besides, the air conditioner in this van is not broken?"

"Also, zombies won't be attracted during the day, right? The air conditioner doesn't sound either..."

Balu murmured his explanation, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Zhinian's cold gaze, and was so frightened that he stopped mid-sentence.

Wen Tu had a panoramic view of this scene. He originally wanted to ask something, but now he just swallowed, stuck out his tongue, pursed his lips and smiled, and didn't ask anything.

Just as Sidney was about to ask something, Xu Zhinian waved his hand to stop.

"I know what you want to ask," Xu Zhinian did not deny that their ideas were wrong, but patiently explained: "But, do you know that turning on the air conditioner will cost more gas?"

Including Eliade who was driving in front, the expressions of the four people seemed to be enlightened.

Sidney: "So that's it. But... even if we waste gas, when the temperature rises, we have to turn on the air conditioner..."

Xu Zhinian nodded and did not deny Sidney: "Yes, but it's not hot now. I'll turn off the air conditioner. Is there any problem?"

Sidney was startled for a moment and hesitated: "No, no problem."

Xu Zhinian smiled at him: "That's right."

The cold gaze fell on him, making Sidney tremble involuntarily.

Balu and Wentu beside them all kept their mouths shut and kept silent.

After all, no one wants to get burned.

Xu Zhinian paused and continued to look out the window.

"I was laughing so hard! Sidney must have been almost scared to death just now!"

"Hahaha! Who is not scared when seeing Sister Xu's look just now? Fortunately, Sister Xu is a customs clearance passer of our Dragon Kingdom!" "Yes! If Sister Xu were a customs clearance passer of other countries, our Dragon Kingdom would probably be like Sidney was so offended by what he did just now..."

"Change the topic! Let's discuss what Sister Xu and the others are going to do next! We can't really drive this car and keep going, right?"

"From what Sister Xu said, it seems that she wants to drive all the way to the next city..."

……

As the black van moved southward, the sun rose from the edge of the sky.

The scorching sun scorched the earth without any cover, bringing huge heat.

Before long, the temperature outside the car rose to over [-] degrees.

The temperature inside the van also began to rise as the sun burned.

Especially because the van is black in color, it absorbs more heat and becomes more noticeable.

Xu Zhinian also noticed this problem, so he used a little magic to cover the long banner stored on the back seat on the roof of the car.

With the obstruction of the long banner, the heat absorbed by the van is reduced by half.

But as the outside air temperature increases, the temperature inside the car still increases uncontrollably.

Sidney was too hot, and because he was sitting in the car, he simply took off his coat.

While he was fanning himself with his hands, the weak air blew against his face; while he was complaining: "It's too hot! It's already so hot in this car. Sister Xu, please let Eliad turn on the air conditioner!"

Hearing what Sidney said, Balu next to him and Wentu sitting in the back seat were also ready to make a move.

Almost at the same time, the two people said in unison: "Turn on the air conditioner! It's really too hot in the car. It's hot and stuffy. It feels even hotter than outside!"

Xu Zhinian paused and rejected several people's requests.

It’s not that I don’t want to turn on the air conditioner, it’s just that the time has not come yet.

She glanced out the window, pressed the button to control the window and rolled it open.

In an instant, convection formed in the windows on both sides.

As the van drove forward at high speed, streams of air were compressed into the front windows and out of the rear windows.

The rapid airflow blew by, and although the wind was also a stream of warm air, the five people in the car did feel the coolness they had not seen for a long time.

Sidney was already sweating profusely and shouted longingly: "This wind! It's so cool!"

Xu Zhinian looked at him and explained slowly: "Look, when is it necessary to turn on the air conditioner now? We can save some gasoline, so we will save some!"

Hearing this, several people lowered their heads in shame.

The van continued to drive on the road, occasionally passing by patches of woods. The trees on both sides brought some shade, making several people in the van cheer.

Because the window was open, Xu Zhinian had no choice but to lean his head on his seat.

She was also very confused.

It's not that she doesn't want to turn on the air conditioner, she also wants to enjoy the coolness earlier.

But now that the air conditioner is turned on, what will happen if the car cannot travel to the next city due to the gasoline consumed?
Are they going to have to get out of the car and push the van to a city where there is gasoline?
Impossible to think about.

The temperature outside the car continues to rise, and the scorching intensity of the sun is gradually increasing.

Not long after, Wentu, who was sitting in the back seat, put his arm against the window.

Suddenly he shouted: "Fuck! It hurts...!"
