Chapter 149 The source of water disappears out of thin air

Chapter 149 The water source disappeared out of thin air

After hearing what Sang Yu said, the visitor nodded and left.

"Yuyu, what kind of trouble do you think Zhang Shi encountered this time?"

As the father and daughter were walking on the way to find Zhang Shiguo, Sang Bancheng lowered his voice and spoke slowly in Sang Yu's ear.

Sang Yu carefully thought about the disasters encountered during the migration to Yuncheng. There were too many things in his memory, and some small details were easily forgotten in the corners.

Then, Sang Yu shook his head gently.

"I'm not sure. Anyway, I'll know after meeting Zhang Shi."

"That shouldn't be a big problem."

Since it is not a big event that my daughter has dreamed about, it is not a life-threatening event.

Sang Bancheng's heart suddenly relaxed.

When Zhang Shiguo saw Sang Yu and Sang Bancheng approaching, he immediately stopped pacing and hurriedly greeted them.

"Here you go, you two are going somewhere with me."

"Uncle Zhang, what happened? You seem to be in trouble."

Sang Yu couldn't help but frown.

Zhang Shiguo couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his brows furrowed tightly:

"We... have a problem with the water source.

The water left in the car now is enough for three more days at most."

"How is this possible! Isn't there millions of tons of water transported along the route?

Isn’t it all calculated before? I need to be more frugal..."

Sang Bancheng's pupils suddenly widened and his voice became louder.

To prevent panic among the citizens, Zhang Shiguo promptly covered Sang Bancheng's mouth.

"I have sent a special person to check this issue, but I haven't found a specific answer yet."

After that, Zhang Shiguo, Sang Yu and Sang Bancheng walked a full kilometer toward the large army behind them before stopping in front of a row of closely lined waterwheels.

“The water tanker has been traveling normally these past few days, and there has been no loss of water along the way.

But when the person in charge of the kitchen stove came to fetch water, we discovered that nearly 70% of the water source had disappeared out of thin air.

If you want to say there was a leak, someone should have noticed it and reported it when the ground became wet."

Hearing this, Sang Yu walked towards the waterwheel.

The water-filled carriage was very long, but looking all the way through it, the carriage was intact and there was nothing suspicious about it.

If Zhang Shiguo hadn't known that she had room, Sang Yu would have suspected that this pot was specially prepared for her.

After observing carefully for a long time and finding no results, Sang Yu continued to walk back. After looking at several empty water tankers, he walked to several specialists who were inspecting the water tankers.

"excuse me.

You two have worked hard for so long, but have you discovered anything?"

Sang Yu looked at the two people scanning the vehicle next to him and asked softly.

"We don't have much idea. It's a bit strange. We found that there were several small holes as big as fingernails on the top of the car where all the water sources disappeared.

But those small holes appear strangely, and the entrances are not too big. I can understand if some of them evaporate due to the hot weather.

It’s a bit puzzling that all these water sources disappeared out of thin air.”

Listening to the explanation of one of the young men, his eyes were full of confusion.

"Small hole?"

Sang Yu's pupils condensed.

A small detail awakened a part of her neglected memory.

She quickly lowered her head and looked under the car.

really……

Under the car, she saw two little ants that were not noticeable.

The ants are all white, with a slightly yellowish and translucent head. The two antennae are red and black, and the color is particularly bright.

Yes, she knows the answer.

However, she couldn't say this clearly. She could only point to the two ants under the car with shocked eyes and said:

“Hey, why are there ants under this car?

Moreover, their appearance seems different from the termites in my memory, maybe they have mutated."

"Yes, ants! We also found a few ants on each car."

The eyes of the two investigators suddenly lit up, but they quickly shook their heads and rejected the answer.

"But it shouldn't be. Termites eat metal and it's understandable that they bit the car.

Even if they want to drink water, they won’t empty so many water tanks overnight, right?”

"Who said they would all disappear overnight?

If the people in the kitchen hadn't discovered it today, would everyone really have discovered that the water was missing today?

My suggestion is that you can find someone who is familiar with insect research to study this little thing.

There are too many things that have mutated after the apocalypse, and the appearance of these termites has changed from before the apocalypse, so maybe the demand will also change."

Seeing the two people who quickly denied the correct answer, Sang Yu couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

It seems that a group of people have reached a dead end and eliminated the correct answer immediately.

Seeing that Sang Yu had been standing here for too long, Sang Bancheng and Zhang Shiguo also followed.

"How's it going, Yuyu? Did you find anything?"

"Two insect researchers were asked to study this termite, and my intuition told me that the disappearance of water sources was related to it.

Even if there is no direct relationship, termites will eat metal, so the holes in the car are undoubtedly caused by their bites!"

Sang Yu frowned and looked at Zhang Shiguo with a look that was not very sure.

Sang Yu's intuition was a little ridiculous, but Zhang Shiguo had a high degree of trust in her.

While the two inspectors continued to search for answers, Zhang Shiguo had two termites captured and sent to a specialist for research.

Thinking of the powerful abilities of the termites, Sang Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Oops, if it is really caused by termites, termites are so powerful in eating, I have to go and see if there is any damage to my RV.

Uncle Zhang, I won’t disturb you for now!”

Saying that, Sang Yu turned around and hurried back quickly.

Sang Bancheng quickly followed.

Sang Yu's words made Zhang Shiguo's heart skip a beat again.

He quickly asked the staff to inform everyone to temporarily stop driving after lunch and carry out rectification on the spot.

Anyone with a car at home should carefully check whether they are infested with termites.

Before returning to the RV, Sang Yu began to look around the RV.

When she saw a hole the size of a fingernail on an external storage box outside the car, her pupils instantly dilated.

Seeing that Sang Bancheng arrived in time, Sang Yu did not hesitate to give Sang Bancheng the task of unpacking and checking.

When Sang Bancheng took out the keys from the RV and opened the cabin to investigate.

The secretly numb termites crawled inside the car, scrambling to get onto the small bottles of water.

For a moment, the sight of small insects moving up and down in dense numbers made Sang Yu suddenly suffer from trypophobia.

"This... these little things are really causing trouble!

Yuyu, what should I do?"

Sang Bancheng was also confused.

There are too many of these things, and the white flowers look more disturbing than nematodes.

"Dad, please wait for me to slow down!"

Sang Yu turned his head and used the ruins in his eyes to cleanse his polluted eyes.

Then she took out a long breath and took out the pair of lizards that had grown a lot in space.
