Cooking Gourmet Meals in the Apocalypse

Chapter 335: Chapter 333: Being Tracked

In their current situation, they would be intercepted no matter which way they went.

The best solution was to knock everyone out!

Chen Xing thought of Little Poison Grass.

Seeing that it was almost dark, Chen Xing thought about using Little Poison Grass to knock out a group of people and using the time they were unconscious to escape.

But... in that short amount of time, they wouldn’t get very far without a car.

’Drive? The commotion would definitely attract other teams.’

Just as she was wondering how they could leave with minimal casualties, the poodle suddenly jumped in front of her and shook its head vigorously.

Chen Xing: ”...”

She picked up the poodle.

Then, she caught a whiff of its scent. It seemed to be the same as the odor the monster had emitted.

’Could it be... that the scent has already permeated the poodle’s body?’

’But... it seems the poodle’s scent no longer makes me feel dizzy.’

To test her theory, she deliberately handed it to Vice General Du, who was closest to her.

Confused, Vice General Du took the poodle.

The very next second, he slowly slumped to the ground.

Seeing this, everyone immediately backed away, including Song Yiguo.

His superpower had only just returned. He really didn’t want to pass out again.

After waking Vice General Du, Chen Xing apologized first. ”Sorry, I just wanted to test if it still had the knockout scent on it!”

Vice General Du was speechless. ’Fine!’

Seeing the sky begin to darken, Chen Xing told everyone to rest for a while.

Once it was completely dark, Chen Xing let the poodle out.

Worried for its safety, she turned invisible and followed behind it.

The poodle’s appearance enlivened the bored enemy teams. They all gathered around to inspect the little creature, wondering where it had come from.

The next second, a large number of them collapsed.

Meanwhile, Chen Xing, seeing the poodle was safe, had already darted to the side and used Little Poison Grass to knock out the nearest team.

Song Yiguo’s team, who were already prepared, rushed out of the house at top speed. They quickly ran past the collapsed teams and sprinted toward the airport.

They couldn’t drive yet; they had to rely on their own two feet.

Fortunately, they were soldiers, so their pace wasn’t slow.

Chen Xing and the poodle quickly caught up with the group.

Vice General Du couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked Chen Xing as they ran, ”How come this little thing seems to listen to you so well?”

Just like Meng Hu.

’When she holds it, the knockout agent seems to have no effect on her at all.’

Chen Xing planned to keep the poodle with her, so she didn’t hide the truth. ”She’s my pet now!”

Vice General Du was speechless. ’Of course.’

’It pays to be powerful,’ he thought. ’Even a little creature like this knows to latch onto her.’

After running for two kilometers, Chen Xing immediately took out a car.

Half of the tires had been changed before they passed out.

The other half had been fixed while they were waiting for nightfall.

They piled into the car and sped off.

When they arrived at the airport, they saw the pilot waiting anxiously.

They were nearly ten hours later than scheduled.

If they hadn’t shown up soon, he wouldn’t have known what to do.

Once on the plane, they flew toward their home country.

Song Yiguo had intended to take Chen Xing directly back to Hualai City, but she refused.

’Returning to Hualai City now would just bring trouble to the factory district, wouldn’t it?’

’Someone was probably already watching by the time I reached the airport.’

She didn’t want to make things difficult for Song Yiguo, either.

After getting off the plane, she gave all the supplies she had gathered to Song Yiguo, then drove off toward the southeast in a small, beat-up car.

For the time being, her movements would certainly be monitored by many people.

Sure enough, in less than half an hour, she knew she was being followed.

When she was alone, she feared nothing!

Ignoring her pursuers, she continued heading southeast.

Her destination was Tail City, where she planned to enjoy peaceful days facing the ocean, with the warmth of spring and blooming flowers.

’So they want to rob me?’

’I’ll give them a chance. Let’s see if they have what it takes.’

In less than half a day, the number of people tailing her had grown significantly.

Most of them were foreigners, but there was also a group with East Asian features. Among them, there were definitely people sent by Xu Anguo.

Chen Xing pretended not to notice her trackers and drove on leisurely.

’Hungry...’

She stopped the car, took out her cooking equipment, and started making a meal.

’Something simple today. Wraps it is.’

She prepared a plate of shredded potatoes with green peppers, some stir-fried bean sprouts, cabbage tossed in vinegar, and sweet and sour pork. Then, she pulled out some stockpiled smoked meat, shredded scallions, and cucumber strips... and steamed twenty thin pancakes.

Sitting at a simple table and chair, she laid a pancake flat on her plate, spread a layer of sweet bean sauce and a hot and sour sauce, then added a little of each side dish before rolling it up.

She took a bite. The savory aroma of the meat mixed with the fragrance of the vegetables and the fresh scent of the cucumber. The whole wrap was gone in just a few bites.

She followed it with a gulp of ice-cold Fanta, the chill running all the way down to her stomach.

Then came the second wrap...

The trackers watched, the craving driving them absolutely crazy.

They glanced down at the dry, hard bread and mineral water in their own hands...

Before long, they witnessed this ”delicate fairy who supposedly lives on dew” completely clean her plate.

Not even a grown man could eat that much!

As envious as they were, they didn’t forget their primary mission: keeping Chen Xing under surveillance.

’Full. Time for a nap!’

Chen Xing brought out a lounge chair, set it up under a large umbrella, and fell asleep.

Her trackers watched, green with envy.

’She can eat and sleep so well.’

’Anyone else in her shoes would be too scared to eat, let alone sleep.’

Two hours later, she finally rose from the lounge chair, casually packed her things away, and got back on the road.

Of course, they didn’t dare to make a rash move.

The main force was waiting for their latest intel. Their mission was simply to keep a close watch on her.

After driving for another two hours, she stopped again.

The pursuers were getting exhausted.

’Can’t she just hurry up?’

’This constant starting and stopping is so irritating.’

They couldn’t report back without a specific location.

’She stopped... to cook again?’

They stared, dumbfounded.

’What is her stomach made of? It hasn’t been that long since she last ate, and she’s eating again?’

’We only had a piece of bread, and we’re not even hungry yet.’

’Damn this girl!’

A chorus of curses echoed in their minds.

As Westerners, steak was their favorite food...

’And this foodie! She actually went through the trouble of making charcoal-grilled steak?’

She also threw on a few country-style sausages and some garlic...

The aroma drifted a long way.

It made them, watching from afar, want to rush over and beg for a bite.

The more they smelled, the hungrier they became!

’This tracking mission is going to be the death of us.’

They felt like the cravings alone were going to kill them.

Chen Xing swept a casual glance in their direction.

In the distance, pairs of bloodshot eyes weren’t staring at her, but at her empty grill.

’Haha...’

As night fell, Chen Xing got into her car.

She was worried her pursuers might use something like a cannon against her, so she wasn’t willing to risk bringing out one of her better cars.

’They certainly couldn’t blow me up, but who could guarantee the car would remain unscathed?’

She didn’t want to risk her precious vehicles.

This current car was just an ordinary sedan, and sleeping in it would definitely be uncomfortable.

After getting into the car, she drew the black curtains on the windows.

As for her... she naturally entered her spatial house to sleep.

She wasn’t an idiot; she wasn’t going to make herself uncomfortable just to rest.
