Early the next morning, Dong Xie expressed his thoughts......

"So, you're saying you want to try a trip up the mountain? See if there's a way to get out or find new leads? ”

After listening to Dong Xie's words, Saito Hideki did not rush to refute his words. In Hideki Saito's view, their current situation is indeed stuck in a dead end......

First of all, in this town, it is basically impossible for them to get any more clues. And, because they had fallen out with the locals in the longhouse before, they were actually already in an embattled situation. In such an environment, they already need to do their best to survive, and this naturally does not include Hideki Saito's parents and Goto Makoto's younger brother.

Let's not talk about how long they can last, but Hideki Saito understands that the current situation is by no means a long-term solution. What should they do in case they run out of food? There is less and less food to be found in the rubble, fewer and fewer rescue teams from the outside world, and the supplies that can be obtained from the outside world are very limited. They can't steal other people's food, can they? Although this is a solution, Hideki Saito still can't accept it from the bottom of their hearts. And things haven't gotten that bad yet, so don't think about it for now.

Dong Xie's meaning is to go up the mountain to see if he can find some new clues on the mountain, and to test whether he can leave Wudao Town...... If you can, you can send Hideki Saito's parents out first. Although these words are a bit ugly, they are indeed a drag and burden on the five of them now. Without them, Dong Xie's actions would be much easier.

From this point of view, Hideki Saito is inclined to Dong Xie, if he can, this is naturally the best, can send his parents and Makoto's younger brother to a safe place first, so that he can also rest easy.

"Alright then, let's go up the mountain." In the end, Hideki Saito also agreed to Dong Xie's plan.

Wang Qiu, Dong Xie, and Saito Hideki all agreed, Director Ma and Goto Makoto were naturally no exception, Saito Hideki's parents and Goto Makoto's younger brother, they would naturally persuade each other. However, there is one more person......

"Miss Haruhara, we're going up the mountain to find a way out of this town, would you like to come with us?"

Looking at Nanami Haruhara, who had slept all night and regained a lot of energy, Hideki Saito asked after a moment of silence.

"You're going up the mountain?" Nanami Haruha was also stunned, why were they ready to go up the mountain at this time?

Hideki Saito nodded and said, "Well, by the way, let's see where your car overturned...... Although the hope is slim, it is okay to go once. It's just that I hope you can understand, it's not that we didn't want to go yesterday, but the conditions really didn't allow it. Plus...... Those two of your colleagues, I think you can understand it too. ”

Hideki Saito's words were over, and he didn't say any more, how could Nanami Haruhara's not understand that what Hideki Saito said was actually a polite remark. They didn't go up the mountain to take the mountain road, so they went to Nanami Haruhara's overturned car by the way, which was just a convenient thing, and it could be regarded as giving Nanami Haruhara an explanation and comforting her. Hideki Saito, in fact, didn't think that Nanami Haruhara's two colleagues were still alive now.

Nanami Haruhara, too, knows this. After a night of thinking, she had already figured it out. Hideki Saito and the others are already having a hard time, where is the spare strength to reach out to save her colleagues? And, even if it goes...... Eighty percent of her colleagues have also been cold for a long time.

Nanami Haruhara, who has calmed down, can only start planning for her own survival. No way...... Since her colleagues are already cold, she can't be like a character in a brain-dead TV series, right? Besides, the other party is just a colleague, how can the friendship be so deep.

"Then please, I also want to leave Goto Town first, and then ask for help from the outside world."

Nanami Haruhara knew about the strange situation in Goto Town now, and her colleagues were dead, so she had to interrupt her interview mission and go home. Moreover, she had already made up her mind in her heart that no matter what, she would never set foot again in her life...... No, it's one step closer to the town of Goto.

"Then rest for a while, and we'll leave later." Hideki Saito dropped the sentence and began to tell his parents about his intentions.

It didn't take long for everyone to have a simple breakfast and start packing their things and heading out.

Hideki Saito naturally persuaded his parents very smoothly, and then Masao Goto naturally would not disobey his sister's words. After knowing that this time they were looking for a way out of Goto Town, Hideki Saito's parents also packed their bags as much as they could, bringing everything they could. After all, if they succeed in getting out, they also have to start a new life, and some things are still essential.

After that, everyone walked towards the mountain together.

Since the town of Goto is now enveloped by the power of the Vortex Curse, any larger movements and sounds have the potential to cause a strong tornado. As a result, everyone walked very slowly.

On a normal day, it would take you about twenty minutes to walk from the town to the mountains, and even faster if you run. But now, when Hideki Saito and the others walked to the bottom of the mountain, it took more than two hours.

Of course, there are reasons why they can't go fast, but more to avoid some dangers.

When she went up the mountain, the first person who showed a stunned expression was Nanami Haruhara, who looked at the road in front of her and said in a daze: "This is ...... Is this really a mountain road? ”

Hideki Saito nodded and said, "There will be no mistake, this is the entrance to the mountain road, and we are not in the wrong place." ”

"But......" Nanami Haruhara pointed ahead and said puzzledly, "I only came down from here yesterday, and I clearly remember that the shrubs and plants here are obviously not so exaggerated, and the road is almost covered." ”

Nanami Haruhara's point was the mountain road in front of her, which was mostly obscured by all kinds of weeds, shrubs, and the like, revealing only the middle path. If you weren't able to see the concrete floor, you'd think it's a mountain trail.

Dong Xie approached these plants and took a closer look, but found that the weeds, low bushes and other plants on both sides of the road had now all turned into the shape of whirlpools.
