Wandering around, eating, resting, crawling into bridge holes. In the evening, Twin Dreams, Lin Wu, Maya, and the little girl pushed the cart, loaded with instant noodles, and headed to Veteran Base. The railway bridge base had reserves too; they could donate instant noodles to Veteran Base but would not tell Veteran Base about another carload of instant noodles at the distribution point.
The little girl had already contacted Veteran Base by phone, and the group received a warm reception upon their midnight arrival. The new base head Baldy welcomed everyone, arranging food and accommodation while gathering people to hold a funeral for Bearded. Bearded's tomb was at the bottom of the U-shape, where ten graves had already been laid, each with a cross in front, hanging a dog tag.
