Chapter 187 Agree to help
When Zhou Nan saw that Loli had followed her, she immediately understood why Loli had come. She was afraid that Loli already knew that she was pregnant.
As usual, take action when it gets dark.
Zhou Nan watched the fully armed team determine the time of action. What Zhou Nan liked most now was to launch a surprise attack while the enemy was sleeping soundly.
Even a lion uses all its strength to fight a rabbit, so it needs to be cautious when dealing with Andy and the other two.
While waiting, Zhou Nan used the excuse of arranging work to call Loli into the car alone.
Looking at the haggard Lori, Zhou Nan suddenly had some strange lines popping up in his mind, such as, Madam, you don’t want Rick to know that you are pregnant...
However, ideas are just ideas, and it takes courage to speak them out. Obviously, Zhou Nan does not have this courage.
"Tell me, you look like you have something to talk to me about?" Zhou Nan reclined his seat and put his legs on the steering wheel.
Luo Li took a deep breath and said, "Zhou Nan, I'm pregnant."
Although Zhou Nan had expected this, he still pretended to be shocked and almost kicked the steering wheel off.
"You're pregnant!"
Lori nodded: "Yeah, and I don't know whose child this is."
"It could be Rick's or Sean's, but I feel the child should be Sean's."
Zhou Nan sat up straight, "Have you told Rick about this?"
Lori cried and shook her head in denial: "No, I can't say it."
When she learned that she was pregnant this time, Lori could no longer remain calm. She was really scared now.
"I thought Rick was dead then, and I felt like I died with him at that point."
"I want to feel alive, no matter what."
"But now, I hate myself so much."
Zhou Nan glanced at Luo Li's belly and asked, "So, you hate the baby in your belly too?"
Lori looked at Zhou Nan and said firmly, "Whether this child stays or leaves, the child is Rick's and can only be Rick's. Apart from this, anything else is meaningless."
Zhou Nan knew that now he shouldn’t worry about who the child belonged to, but whether the child should go or stay.
"So, if that's the case, then what are you worried about?"
Rick wanted to find Zhou Nan to discuss the battle plan, but when he came to the truck, he heard the voice of his wife Lori.
"They seem to be discussing something about the child," Rick did not interrupt, but chose to hide in the blind spot of the truck and eavesdrop on their conversation.
Lori glanced out the window and didn't see anyone passing by, so she felt relieved.
"Have you seen the world outside? It's filled with murder, rape, and banditry. It's such a terrible world, even I can't stand it."
"It's the good memories of my past life that keep me going in this fucked-up apocalypse."
"I have half a lifetime of beautiful memories that support me to keep working hard to live."
"But I have these memories, what about Karl?"
"What else is there to remember about him?"
"Besides the boring academic curriculum, the playground every weekend, and the father who is often not home, what else is supporting him?"
"Not to mention the child in my belly now. He's not even as good as Karl. In this world, he can't absorb any good memories at all."
"Its world is filled with nothing but fear, pain, conspiracy, blood, and screams. Apart from these, I simply cannot imagine any other beautiful place in this world."
"If that's the case, why did I give birth to him? Should I let him live in insecurity for the rest of his life? I really can't do that!"
Rick's eyes widened in shock, he didn't expect Lori to be pregnant!
And most importantly, she doesn't seem to plan to give birth to the child?
Besides, shouldn’t they come to me first to discuss the matter of having a child? Why did they go to Zhou Nan without telling me?
Rick looked a little dazed, his mind was in a mess and he just wanted to find a quiet place to be alone for a while.
So Rick stumbled away.
After finishing his tasks today, he decided to discuss this matter with Lori.
Zhou Nan looked at Loli seriously for the first time, and his tone softened.
"You can never think that way. There is still good to be found in this world, and we can find the strength to persevere in each other."
Luo Li looked at Zhou Nan seriously, "So do you think this child has a chance of growing up and living a happy life?"
Zhou Nan thought of his own prison. From the harsh environment at the beginning to the comfortable and livable one now, from only a few dozen people at the beginning to more than 500 people now, what is impossible to achieve?
So Zhou Nan replied briefly: "I think it's very likely. After all, everything depends on human effort. How can you know if you don't try it yourself?"
Lori smiled self-deprecatingly, then left thoughtfully.
During the waiting period, Li took Clementine to find Zhou Nan. Li also proposed that after resolving this matter, he would continue to take Clementine to find her parents. This was his promise to Clementine.
Zhou Nan said to Li: "Do you have any plans?"
"Her parents were on vacation in Savannah when the disaster broke out, and they left Clementine in the care of a nanny. If we want to find her parents, I think we should try our luck in Savannah."
After hearing Li's plan, Zhou Nan also took out a map.
"Savannah is about 250 miles from Atlanta. If you take the highway, it takes 3 to 4 hours to travel. If you take the shorter route from Macon, it will take about 2 hours."
"It's not easy."
Li smiled and said, "This is just outside of Macon. My hometown is nearby, so I'm very familiar with this place."
"There's a railway hub here. If I can find a train, I think it would be much faster than walking along the road."
Zhou Nan nodded after hearing this. "Alright, since you promised Clem, then it's only right that you help her find her family."
"But I think this matter needs further consideration. After all, the railway hub you mentioned is too close to the terminal."
"If you run into those cannibalistic bandits, we'll be in big trouble!" Zhou Nan first agreed to look for Clementine's parents, but he still tried to stop Li from going to Savannah.
On the one hand, it was because Clementine's parents were already dead, and on the other hand, because Li would also die there in the game plot, Zhou Nan was very opposed to the two of them going to Savannah.
But seeing Clementine's pitiful appearance, Zhou Nan finally compromised: "After I finish dealing with things here, I can personally help you find your parents."
"After all, I have a lot of people, and it's safer to act together. I don't want you to get into any danger. After all, you still owe me several cars."
"If you die, who will I ask for those cars?"
During the game, as the train is moving, they will encounter a tanker truck blocking the way.
Zhou Nan just thought he was moving fuel and helping Clementine at the same time.
At the same time, Atlanta is under great competitive pressure, and the surrounding supplies have been almost looted by the survivors.
If you come across something worth looting in Savannah, it will be worth the trip.
Most importantly, Zhou Nan now has a bold idea.
Because this railway is very important!
Originally, Zhou Nan had not planned to go to the Special Administrative Region, but with the help of the railway, it would not be difficult to travel back and forth between the two places quickly.
But if you want to get the train, you can't avoid the creepy terminal.
"Zhou Nan, from now on we will be best friends!" Clementine kept thanking Zhou Nan while thinking.
In order to respond to Clementine, Zhou Nan could only suppress this thought temporarily.
