Chapter 495: Chapter 371: The Insect Calamity Appears Again
Having confirmed that his parents indeed did not want to leave, Dong Tianyu stopped trying to persuade them, after all, he too had experienced others doing things he disliked in the name of his best interest.
However, just as Mr. Thompson had said, now because of the giant tree in Pengcheng, at least when the Soldier Bugs got close, they would make a beeline for the giant tree. As long as they weren’t provoked, those Soldier Bugs wouldn’t bother any survivors they encountered on the way, so the safety of the camp was quite assured.
With this in mind, Dong Tianyu decided to do as his old man suggested and establish a home in Kyoto first. If real trouble arose here, he would then bring his parents over to Kyoto.
Having settled on this, Dong Tianyu wasted no more time. The very next day, he contacted Madeline to ask if she wanted to leave with him.
At Dong Tianyu’s invitation, Madeline was somewhat at a loss for words, "Big brother, you have to give me some heads up on these kinds of things. At least give me some time to prepare. You suddenly say you want to leave, and I’m completely unprepared.
If you’re not in a hurry, wait a few days for me. I need to take care of some things, and I had planned to take my time. Now that you want to leave, I won’t keep her around for fun anymore; I’ll just deal with it directly."
Hearing Madeline say this, Dong Tianyu immediately realized, "You’re talking about that woman scammer, what’s her name, Alexandria?"
"Her name is Alexandria."
"Right, right, Alexandria, no kidding, it’s been so long and you still haven’t made your move? I thought you’d done it a long time ago since there’s been no word for such a long time."
Madeline just laughed at Dong Tianyu’s words, "I was preparing to let her slip up and then catch her fair and square. Who would have thought that just when I was about to take action, she calmed down instead of continuing her usual tricks.
Her abnormal behavior made all my prepared countermeasures useless. As the camp was forming the system of Officials, the Rylan family started to get restless. The logistics department controlled by Rylan was even restricting the normal supply requests from my brother’s side.
Since she’s in the logistics department, I wanted to see what Rylan was up to. If Rylan wants to court death, I can use her to get rid of his influence in the logistics department, and also give the Rylan family a serious warning."
Hearing Madeline speak like this, Dong Tianyu sighed helplessly, thinking about how close their families used to be, and how they moved to Moon Bay together when they faced danger, and then fled from Pengcheng together. But in just a short time, cracks had appeared in their once tight-knit relationship.
However, disregarding the ties between the older generations, Dong Tianyu had a better relationship with Madeline among the younger generation. So if Rylan and Madeline really ended up in a conflict, Dong Tianyu would definitely side with kin over justice.
So Dong Tianyu curiously asked Madeline, "So, how do you plan to handle this now?"
"What else can I do? You’re in a hurry to go, aren’t you? Just catch her and take her with me. Whatever conflict I have with Rylan is personal; I definitely can’t harm the camp’s interests. After all, damaging the camp’s interests is the same as harming family interests. I can still make clear distinctions when it comes to the overall situation."
Hearing Madeline say this, Dong Tianyu didn’t say much else, "I’m not in a rush to go there, so how many days do you think you need to settle this matter? If it won’t take long, I can wait for a while. If it takes longer, then I will go first."
"Catching her is easy; it won’t take much time. The main thing is there are some business matters here that need handing over. If you’re not in a rush, give me five days."
Knowing Madeline still had business matters to attend to, Dong Tianyu directly told her, "It’s not like we won’t see each other when I go there. There’s no rush. I’ll go and scout the place first. Take your time here, and once you have arranged everything on the business side, come over whenever you’re ready."
After hearing Dong Tianyu say this, Madeline nodded her head. In fact, she didn’t need to leave with Dong Tianyu, as she was quite familiar with Kyoto herself. After the previous wave of disasters, unlike Dong Tianyu who had always stayed at the camp, she had been traveling between Pengcheng and Kyoto, so she knew the situation there much better than Dong Tianyu.
After bidding farewell to Madeline, Dong Tianyu left the camp and flew towards Pengcheng by Sword Control.
The flights between Pengcheng and Kyoto were once a week now, arriving in Pengcheng in the morning and staying until they took off in the afternoon, with the return flight reaching Kyoto by evening.
Dong Tianyu was in such a rush to find Madeline because there happened to be a return flight that day, which is why Dong Tianyu was so eager to leave.
Unlike before the disaster when you could pre-purchase tickets online, now you have to buy the tickets on the day the flight arrives. However, under normal circumstances, it’s rare for all the passenger cabin seats to sell out; even if they do occasionally fill up, the cargo hold can also accommodate passengers.
Dong Tianyu, having arrived in Pengcheng, easily bought a ticket to Kyoto, and when he arrived in Kyoto in the evening, he took out his communicator and directly contacted Yara.
Even though Dong Tianyu’s communicator was purchased at Saxon County Camp, as long as there is a signal, it can be used anywhere.
Besides, the communication base station in Saxon County was a gift from Kyoto, so the survivors there have been enjoying communication freedom just like before the disaster struck.
