Chapter 185 - 174: Honest Man Lin Xiaojun

Chapter 185: Chapter 174: Honest Man Lin Xiaojun

"Back to the cruise ship."

Although Xiangti Bay was just a stone’s throw away, Yu Dong didn’t want to risk it. The sky was darkening. Whatever it was, it could wait until tomorrow.

"Ah... all right. We’ll come back tomorrow."

Zhao Wenjie was anxious, but it was the combat team’s standing rule: be home before dark. He had no choice but to endure it.

However, seeing that there were no zombies on the ground and the main gate was sealed, a few thoughts crossed his mind.

’Looks like there are some capable people in Xiangti Bay Community,’ he thought. ’They’ve secured the ground level. She should be relatively safe...’

Yan Yikai sidled up to him. "Is that your ex-girlfriend you were talking about, Brother Jie?"

"Yeah..."

"But didn’t you see that video? The kind... that even I’m not supposed to watch at my age. You two got back together?"

Although Yan Yikai was only seventeen, he knew how explosive that kind of video was. It wasn’t something a normal person would do.

"No. It’s just... I can’t just watch her die, can I? It’s just a rescue on the way. It won’t delay the team’s business. We’re out here saving people anyway."

"So if she comes to the cruise ship base... how are you two going to get along?"

"We’ll live our own separate lives. After Brother Dong told me everything... I’m not going back. I just can’t stand to see a woman cry and die in front of me."

"I see... You’re a really kind person, then."

They hadn’t managed to scavenge many supplies on their way here today, so Huang was a little dispirited.

Zhao Youcai, on the other hand, seemed to be hitting it off with three blond-haired punks on the way.

Meanwhile, in a room high up in one of Xiangti Bay Community’s buildings, Lin Xiaojun held a pair of binoculars, watching the large truck and the heavily armed combatants on it drive away.

"So many people... A few are from our community, but there are a lot I don’t recognize."

"Who is it? Let me see."

Jiang Xupeng took the binoculars and looked out...

"Holy shit! Isn’t that Wang and Xiao?! They’re still alive?!"

"Who are Wang and Xiao?" Lin Xiaojun asked nonchalantly.

"Cops from the Huangyang Port Police Station. Old acquaintances... Those two are pretty tough, especially Wang. That bastard is ruthless. Last time, he dragged me to a spot with no cameras and gave me a couple of good kicks."

This area was also under the jurisdiction of the Huangyang Port Police Station, and Jiang Xupeng, a regular street loafer, was no stranger to the place.

"Cops... so they have guns?"

Lin Xiaojun suddenly realized something.

He turned, opened a bedroom door, and looked at Yang Yi, who was curled up on the bed. A particularly strong smell of hormones hung in the air.

"You said before... your boyfriend is on a cruise ship at Huangyang Port? And he’s coming to save you?"

"Yes! You... you let me go, or he won’t let you off the hook when he gets here!"

Remembering what they had done to Yang Yi over the past few days, an inscrutable look slowly crept into Lin Xiaojun’s eyes.

"Jiang, you guys come here. This is the last time..."

Jiang Xupeng and two other men walked in with lecherous smirks, and they closed the door.

The room became dim and crowded.

"What... what are you doing?"

Yang Yi watched in terror as Lin Xiaojun slowly approached, a dangerous aura about him.

"Don’t blame me. I’m just trying to survive."

...

「On the ninth day of the apocalypse.」

The combat and logistics teams once again returned to Xiangti Bay Community in the massive hundred-ton truck.

Today, Wang Xiuying had also come along, with her dog on a leash.

During the short five-minute drive, Zhao Wenjie was restless.

Yu Dong, however, remained as calm as ever.

’In this life, I still have to deal with these people...’

This time, because he was fully occupied with planning things for the cruise ship, and with Xufeng and Ding Ming having been sent to the research institute, he hadn’t had the manpower or energy to deal with Lin Xiaojun and Jiang Xupeng.

But he had already rescued the people he’d wanted to. There weren’t many survivors left in Xiangti Bay Community now, and none of them were people he was interested in.

’If Lin Xiaojun wants to take control... then let him.’

In this life, Yu Dong no longer thought much of the man.

’He’s just a lawless, ruthless character, but he’s only one man, after all. He doesn’t have a third eye; how far can he get with just a baseball bat?’

’In this short amount of time, the most they could have done is clear out the zombies in the community and find a building to hole up in.’

Once Yu Dong had a moment to breathe, he could just take care of Lin Xiaojun, Jiang Xupeng, and their ilk.

Today was the day he would finish his unfinished business.

Even if Zhao Wenjie hadn’t strongly requested a trip to Xiangti Bay, he would have come anyway.

’In this life, let’s see what you’re really made of, Lin Xiaojun...’

With every loop, Yu Dong grew stronger, his team larger, and his equipment better. Especially in this life... Yu Dong and Officer Wang commanded an armed combat group of 46 people.

Furthermore, he and Zhao Youcai had guns.

"Youcai, stay sharp in a bit. If anyone tries anything stupid, just shoot them."

"Understood!"

Zhao Youcai was the person who understood Yu Dong’s reincarnation the best, knowing more details than anyone else.

Officer Wang only knew that in the previous life, Yu Dong had a few teammates in Xiangti Bay Community, and that they had managed the community and fought zombies together. He wasn’t aware of all the details of each loop, like how Yu Dong had rooted out the lone wolf Sun Shan, or who he had blown up with a remote-controlled car.

Recounting all these details would be endless, so Yu Dong had given most of the members a simplified version of his apocalyptic rebirth.

Therefore, in the truck, Yu Dong gave Wang Dingbei a heads-up.

"Wang, we’ll likely encounter a dangerous individual in Xiangti Bay today named Lin Xiaojun. He has severe violent tendencies, is completely lawless, and is a decent fighter. Be careful."

"Does he have a gun?"

"No."

"Then he’s just a regular guy."

Wang Dingbei was unconcerned.

Yu Dong smiled. "To us, maybe... but it never hurts to be careful."

The group soon arrived back at Xiangti Bay Community. They parked the hundred-ton truck on the road, turned it around, and lured out the surrounding zombies, dispatching them quickly.

"Hydraulic cutters, go!"

This time, having taken over the cruise ship, Yu Dong’s logistics equipment could be described as luxurious; they had all sorts of professional tools.

A guy from the logistics team took out a large pair of hydraulic cutters, snapped the steel cable on the main gate, and opened up Xiangti Bay Community.

The group of 46 quickly entered Xiangti Bay Community and deployed.

ROAR!!!

A few zombies that hadn’t been cleared out from the corridors ran out and were easily dispatched by the group.

Yu Dong took out a megaphone and shouted, "Zombies, come on down!"

Immediately, a large number of zombies trapped inside their homes, who hadn’t been cleared out yet, began banging on the glass.

A moment later, it started raining zombies in the community. The maimed zombies with broken arms and legs were dispatched by the combat team as if they were toys.

The cruise ship’s combat team cleared out most of the zombies in the community with extreme speed.

In this life, their combat effectiveness was extremely high!

"Any survivors left? Come on down! Don’t make us come in and look for you."

After Yu Dong finished shouting, a group of people slowly walked out of Building 3.

Leading them was... Zhao Yun.

Behind her stood a silent, head-bowed Lin Xiaojun and a grinning Jiang Xupeng. Twenty Death God Repeating Crossbows instantly aimed at the three of them.

Jiang Xupeng quickly raised his hands and shouted, "Officer, don’t shoot! We’re good citizens! Outstandingly good citizens!"

Wang Dingbei squinted at him.

"Isn’t that Brother Ji? You managed to survive. What a way to ruin a perfectly good morning... Hey! Ma’am, in the front, are you all right? These two men didn’t do anything to you, did they?"

Zhao Yun gave a slight smile. "Officer, I’m fine. They took very good care of me. We all supported each other to survive..."

Just then, Zhao Wenjie stepped out from the group.

"That’s Building 3... My home is also in Building 3. Where’s Yang Yi? Have you seen her? A girl with very fair skin. Manager Zhao, you’ve met my girlfriend. Where is she?"
