"A month after the disaster broke out, I was rescued by my brothers here. Later, they accompanied me back home once, but your mother wasn't there. I haven't found any trace of her to this day."
Hearing this, Zhao Lina wasn't overly saddened; instead, she felt a slight sense of relief.
After all, Old Zhao's answer was much better than what she had feared in her heart.
But her silence was seen by Old Zhao as him feeling worried, thinking that his daughter couldn't handle this outcome. He quickly added, "But when I went, everything at home was fine, with no traces of zombies, and the doors and windows were tightly closed. It suggests your mom left in a calm state. I estimate she was likely taken by the government's disaster relief teams."
Old Zhao understood that this result was almost impossible because as a civilian waiting for rescue in HF City for almost a month, he hadn't encountered even the slightest hint of rescue.
