Chapter 291 - 280: "Thank You" Isn’t Just Something You Say, It’s Something You Do

Chapter 291: Chapter 280: "Thank You" Isn’t Just Something You Say, It’s Something You Do

"Brother Jingfu, tell all our brothers: no matter who’s attacking the Public Security Bureau, Yulong Base is going to back them up."

Mengde hadn’t expected to arrive at such a convenient time.

Just in time for someone’s assault on the Public Security Bureau.

Although he hadn’t been inside the bureau to see it with his own eyes yet...

But from the behavior of people like Li Yu and Zhang Zheng, he already knew the bureau was full of scum.

Not to mention, he had just learned a great deal about the situation at the Public Security Bureau from Qin Yueran.

He knew the bureau was just using "rescue" as a pretext.

In reality, their actions were even worse than those of the West Mountain Base he had encountered before.

That was why he didn’t hesitate to have Brother Jingfu and the others make a move.

Of course, the most important factor was that Qin Yueran had recognized the group attacking the Public Security Bureau at a single glance.

It was none other than her brother, Jiang Haibing, and his people.

In that case, there was no need to hold back.

’I, Mengde, side with justice, but I side with my own even more!’

"Brother Jingfu, have everyone charge!"

"Wipe out the Public Security Bureau!"

Upon receiving the order, Brother Jingfu didn’t say another word.

He immediately led the charge himself.

The man was all about brute force.

He charged straight into the Public Security Bureau, ignoring the hail of bullets.

It was a good thing he had broken through to Tier Eight; otherwise, a charge like that would have been suicide.

After all, judging by the current state of the battlefield, it was obvious that Jiang Haibing’s side was at a disadvantage in both numbers and weaponry.

’Looks like I’ll have to make a move, too.’

He stopped Qin Yueran, the beautiful police officer, who was anxiously preparing to get out of the RV.

"Your wounds from yesterday just healed. You should stay here."

"I’ll go instead."

Qin Yueran was overjoyed that Mengde was willing to step in.

Although she had never seen him in a fight, she had complete faith in his strength.

At the very least, a man who could so easily rescue her from Yang Jun and all his men was no simple character.

"Mengde, thank you. Please, take care of my brother."

Qin Yueran’s tone was almost pleading.

For such a cold, aloof, and fair-skinned beauty of a police officer to use such a pleading tone...

...made Mengde unable to resist teasing her a little.

"Oh? Is a ’thank you’ all I get?"

Because Mengde was taller than her, and combined with the angle at which he stood...

...looking down, he had a perfect view of the police beauty’s snow-white... abyss.

’Heh... she’s a woman with a big heart, all right!’

Qin Yueran had only spoken casually, but she was truly grateful to Mengde.

But when he threw the question back at her, she was momentarily stumped, unable to think of how she could possibly repay him.

She froze on the spot, completely at a loss.

Seeing her reaction, Mengde burst out laughing.

’This police beauty is actually pretty cute when she’s flustered.’

"Forget it, I’ll stop teasing you. You can take your time thinking about it."

"I’m heading out now!"

Without waiting for her to reply, Mengde teleported straight out of the RV.

Watching his retreating figure, Qin Yueran was lost in a daze.

She didn’t snap out of it for quite some time.

Not until Cheng Ying tugged on her arm and offered some words of comfort.

"Don’t worry. When my husband makes a move, nothing ever goes wrong."

Cheng Ying assumed this was what Qin Yueran was worried about, but she didn’t expect her to suddenly ask something else entirely.

"Sister Ying’er, how do you think I should thank him?"

Cheng Ying was speechless.

’So I spent all that time comforting her, and I completely missed the point, huh?’

She looked at Qin Yueran’s earnest face.

If it weren’t for the fact that this woman had only just joined their group, she would have given this naive, fair-skinned police officer a proper lesson:

’A woman has more than one mouth, you know...’

’A "thank you" isn’t just something you say, it’s something you do!’

...

Meanwhile, Jiang Haibing was completely unaware of all this.

Even if he had known, he wouldn’t have had time to care.

He was facing a life-or-death crisis.

Just today, while on the run, he received news that a few of his brothers who had escaped the Public Security Bureau with him had been recaptured.

These were brothers who had been with him since the very beginning of the apocalypse.

He had no choice but to rescue them.

And so, he had brought his men to attack the Public Security Bureau.

The result was predictable.

Although he had used some tactics to lure and kill a portion of the bureau’s guards earlier, when faced with the bureau’s overwhelming numbers, his side was still stretched thin.

A moment ago, before the Public Security Bureau had fully reacted, Jiang Haibing had been able to lead his men in a charge.

But now, forget charging forward.

His own men were on the verge of being completely surrounded.

"Haha! Jiang Haibing, there’s a path to heaven, but you refused to take it. Hell has no gate, yet you came barging in!"

"Hmph! Let’s see you try to escape this time!"

The speaker was none other than the director of the Public Security Bureau, Li Gang.

He was also Li Yu’s father.

He stood among the bureau’s guards, a mocking sneer on his face as he looked at the encircled Jiang Haibing.

’After the apocalypse began, as the director of the Public Security Bureau, I was responsible for managing the safety of the survivors in East Sea City. Protecting the survivors was my duty. So what if I, the director, enjoy myself a little? What’s the big deal about fooling around with a couple of women? I can’t be expected to protect all those useless wastes of space for free, can I?’

These were Li Gang’s true thoughts.

’Besides, I’m a Tier Nine Superpower User. Who are you, a mere Tier Eight, to talk about teaching me a lesson? Isn’t that just asking to die? And it’s an honor for you that my son has taken a liking to your sister, Qin Yueran. Since you dared to run away with your sister, don’t blame me for what comes next.’

Li Gang sneered again and again. ’This time, I’ll make sure I get my revenge! Once he captured Jiang Haibing, he could just wait for his sister, Qin Yueran, to walk right into his trap. He had been coveting this famous police beauty of East Sea City for a long time! My son likes her too? No matter. It’s not out of the question for father and son to share... I just wonder where Li Yu has been messing around for so long. Where did he run off to?’

"Li Gang, don’t get cocky!"

"You won’t meet a good end!"

"Even if I die here today, I’ll be waiting for you in the afterlife."

Even though he was surrounded, Jiang Haibing showed not a hint of fear.

As for surrender, that was out of the question.

He knew the hatred between them couldn’t be resolved with a few simple words.

So when Li Gang heard Jiang Haibing’s words, he didn’t feel like talking anymore.

"Whether I meet a good end or not is something you’re destined never to see."

"But I can guarantee that *you* won’t meet a good end!"

"And another thing—I’m going to have a lot of fun with your sister, Qin Yueran! HAHAHA!"

Li Gang’s arrogant laughter echoed across the field.

"Do it! Kill them all!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Li Gang raised his hand, about to order his subordinates to attack.

But at that very moment, a group of people suddenly charged the guards from behind.

Caught off guard, the guards’ formation was instantly thrown into chaos.

A hole was punched directly through the encirclement.

When he saw who had arrived, Jiang Haibing was pleasantly surprised.

The man leading the charge was someone he recognized.

"Brother Jingfu?"
