Since he was walking, Chen Xin's speed wasn't fast.
He leaned on a trekking pole in his hand, using it for support while also clearing obstacles with it.
Though he was walking along the road, the roadside was no longer as clean and flat as before.
Due to the rain, burned trees on the slopes beside the road were washed down and piled along the roadside, mixed with mud and stones. Walking on the road, if not careful, one could easily step on or kick them, or even trip.
Chen Xin didn't turn on his flashlight, not just to save its use, but also to avoid being spotted by others.
Although most survivors are in shelters now, there might still be people outside the shelters.
He was merely out to understand the current situation and gather some resources. The gun was just for self-defense; he didn't want any trouble.
Chen Xin continued walking along the road. Although it was dark, it wasn't so dark that he couldn't see at all, and by staying on the road, he wouldn't lose his way.
