Sun Jiaxi was facing the loudspeaker, his face was expressionless, and his tone was calm, “Everyone be quiet.”

After he finished speaking, after waiting for a while, the noisy crowd finally calmed down.

“According to the guards at the border, there should be tens of thousands of zombies surrounding the island now. The Armed Forces have bombed the ice around the island, buying a certain amount of time for our escape. However, this can not make the people of the whole island rest assured. According to previous years, the ice surface will begin to melt around the beginning of spring. Although the beginning of spring is still two days away, there is no sign of the weather turning warm. I guess the broken ice surface will start to form again. It can last for a day and a night at most. When the temperature drops sharply at night, it is very likely that the ice surface will reform tomorrow morning. The explosive method is very feasible and the effect is remarkable, but we don’t have much explosives left, so we can’t blow the ice around the island.”

On hearing that, the people at the bottom immediately opened the pot again. It was noisy, and some people screamed directly.

Sun Jiaxi continued to hold the loudspeaker with a calm expression, “Now our only way to escape is to take enough food and hide in the escape tunnel. When the ice completely melts and all the zombies go to the island, we will go back to Yunjing city.”

As soon as Sun Jiaxi’s voice fell, the people below began to make noise again.

One of the middle-aged men, who was about forty-years-old, stood up and walked in front of the crowd and said, “Mayor Sun, you asked us to return to Yunjing City. There are so many zombies in Yunjing City. Isn’t it for us to die?

Sun Jiaxi calmly asked him with the loudspeaker, “Do you have a better place?”

The man couldn’t answer, so he said nonchalantly, “I can’t think of any other place, but I can’t push people into the fire pit either.”

“Like three years ago, I will not force everyone to follow my way. If you don’t want to go to Yunjing City, you can stay on the island or go to other places by ferry, but you must think clearly, whether you stay on the island or If you take the ferry to other places, your chances of surviving will not be much better than returning to Yunjing City.”

“Like three years ago, I won’t force you to follow me. If you don’t want to go to Yunjing City, you can stay on the island or go somewhere else by boat, but you should think clearly that whether you stay on the island or go somewhere else by boat, your chances of survival are not much greater than returning to Yunjing city.”

After Sun Jiaxi finished speaking, there was another commotion underneath.

Standing beside the crowd, Lin Jingshu gently pulled her father’s sleeve and said, “Dad, what shall we do?”

Lin Han stroked the back of his daughter’s hand soothingly, and said, “Listen to your uncle Sun. He brought us here safely at the beginning.”

“Dad, are we going to die?” Lin Jingshu’s voice was full of grief.

“No, Dad will always protect you.”

After a while, Sun Jiaxi’s voice came from the loudspeaker again, “I don’t have much time for you to discuss now. I’ll give you an hour to bring important things and food. If no one comes in an hour, I’ll directly regard it as giving up the opportunity to escape. Time is tight. I don’t want to waste everyone’s precious time by waiting for you.”

An hour later, everyone showed up at the entrance of the administrative building on time with large and small bags.

Sun Jiaxi, looking at the gathered crowd, thought to himself: Sure enough, when there is pressure, people’s movements will be quicker.

The entrance of the escape passage was in the basement of the administrative building. The entrance was very hidden and narrow, and only one person could pass through. The escape passage led directly from the administrative building to the border of the island. Therefore, as long as the ice completely melted, they could leave the island by ferry.

Sun Jiaxi originally planned to let the crowd enter the entrance of the escape tunnel in different waves, but when there were more people, everyone would have more ideas. They all wanted to enter the escape tunnel as soon as possible, so they tried their best to squeeze toward the entrance, and the orderly formation suddenly became chaotic.

That was how Lin Jingshu and Lin Han were pushed away by the crowd. Lin Han was pushed into the escape route, but Lin Jingshu was pushed outside.

Sun Jiaxi stood by the entrance and presided over the overall situation. Looking at the chaotic crowd, he shook his head helplessly, and didn’t bother to take care of it because time was too tight.

Lin Jingshu grew up being held in Lin Han’s palm. Wherever she had the strength to squeeze like those hungry wolves, she was squeezed out at once.

When she saw Sun Jiaxi standing on one side, she complained to her uncle with grievances, “Uncle Sun, my father and I have separated.”

Sun Jiaxi looked at Lin Jingshu and immediately gave a kind smile, “What’s the matter?”

Lin Jingshu glanced resentfully at the crowd still trying to squeeze, and said angrily, “They are all crowded, and the queue is no longer lined up. Uncle Sun, you take care of them!”

Sun Jiaxi sighed and said, “I can’t control it. Do you think they will hear me? Don’t worry. Your father should have been squeezed into the escape passage. I’ll ask Secretary Zhang to take you into the passage later. When you enter the passage, you’ll find Lao Lin.”
