Jiuqing asked Ye Rongxin, puzzled.
“They are acting, just now someone was eavesdropping outside the window, everyone is afraid to speak the truth,”
Ye Rongxin replied.
“Oh~~ I understand now!”
Jiuqing suddenly realized; previously, Brother had mentioned that Han Jin had brought an Invisibility Ability User with them, she hadn’t expected that the Invisibility Ability User was just outside the window!
At the entrance to the conference room and Jiuhui’s office, they had installed sensors to prevent Xia Ying from entering, so had that person eavesdropped from outside the window? That was quite sinister.
“Knowing this is good, be more careful in the future,”
Ye Rongxin said before he also left the conference room.
Jiuqing stuck out her tongue, she really hadn’t expected this! She had just blurted out Su Jin’s name, should that be okay?
…
After briefly saying goodbye to Zhang Chuyang and Wang Zhu, Su Jin didn’t return to the villa but drove the minibus towards the administrative building.
She picked up Local Tyrant Gold, who had been crouching at the front; they had to safely hand over Dr. Pei and his three companions to Liang Jiuhui to have truly completed their task.
Since Ren Yingjie was unfamiliar with the layout of the base, Lin Xiuyuan took over the driving at this moment.
“Eh? Isn’t that Xu Shi?”
Lin Xiuyuan asked, looking at a person waving at their car ahead; he remembered that person had come to the villa looking for Su Jin a few times, appearing to be called Xu Shi.
“Yes, he’s signaling us to turn towards the back door of the administrative building,”
Lu Hao said, glancing at Xu Shi’s hand signal.
“Alrighty!”
Lin Xiuyuan gestured an understanding to Xu Shi outside and then turned into the back door of the administrative building as per the road junction.
The back door of the administrative building led to a courtyard with a basketball court, which was no longer in use.
Jiuhui and his companions were waiting in the courtyard, and to Su Jin’s surprise, Liang Wei was also there.
“You’re finally back,”
Jiuhui said excitedly as he watched the people getting out of the car.
“Mission accomplished,”
Lu Hao replied with a smile.
“Brother Pei, we’ve finally been looking forward to having you back,”
Liang Wei also approached Pei Yuan and said, noting that Pei Yuan looked much older than before; it seemed his previous life hadn’t been great, no wonder he wanted to return.
“Mayor Liang, thank you. Thanks to you and the team including Su Jin, we could return to our hometown,”
Pei Yuan said and was about to kneel down to Liang Wei, which Jiuhui swiftly blocked with quick reflexes.
“Uncle Pei, you are too polite. The base is currently short-staffed, we are counting on your help,” Jiuhui said.
“Let’s not stand here. Let’s go inside and talk,”
Liang Wei looked very pleased, although he didn’t know why only four members of Dr. Pei’s team had come back, but clearly, this wasn’t the place to talk.
At this time, Jiuhui also noticed the people following Su Jin and Lu Hao. Besides the familiar faces of Lin Xiuyuan, Nie Qing, Qiqi, and the little monkey Local Tyrant Gold, who was that expressionless unfamiliar man?
Su Jin and Lu Hao’s relatives?
They don’t look alike either.
Lian Jiyue also noticed Liang Jiuhui, who had been sizing him up, but he merely glanced at him before following Mao Qiqi forward.
Sheng Jing also frowned and glanced at Lian Jiyue several times. Why couldn’t she sense this person’s existence?
“Who is this?”
In the meeting room, Liang Jiuhui finally could not help but ask.
“His name is Lian Jiyue. He used to be the Base Leader of E-city’s base. Due to some reasons, he is now with our team,”
Su Jin explained briefly.
The Base Leader of E-city’s base?!
Liang Jiuhui felt that if he had been drinking water, he definitely would have sprayed it out.
What is the Base Leader of E-city’s base doing here?
Is he here to poach from us as well?!
Liang Jiuhui immediately imagined a dramatic scenario. Was it possible that the Base Leader of E-city had witnessed the capabilities of Su Jin, Lu Hao, and the others in E-city and wanted to recruit them to E-city, and after they disagreed, he stubbornly followed them to S-city?
Or did he have some other sinister plot? Hence, he simply infiltrated Su Jin’s team…
Although Liang Jiuhui was feeling a surge of emotions internally, his face showed none of it.
Liang Wei and Li Haochu, who were also present, were stunned, not knowing whether to sit or stand. Now that the Base Leader of E-city’s base was here, should they show some welcoming gestures?
And why does this Base Leader of E-city’s base look so odd, as if he is keeping to himself and not greeting anyone?
“Cough cough,”
Seeing everyone’s reaction, Su Jin had no choice but to explain the incidents that had occurred in E-city to everyone.
In short, Lian Jiyue was currently in a special situation. Not only was he an old friend of Lu Hao, but he had also helped them in E-city, so for now, he had no choice but to stay with their team.
Pei Yuan also spoke about some of the inside details of E-city’s research institute. Liang Wei and the others were shocked. What kind of place was E-city, even using their own Base Leader for experiments?
Liang Jiuhui also relaxed a bit, grateful that it wasn’t a poaching situation, otherwise he really would have had to send someone away.
“Ah, Old Zhang and others in our former team also lost their lives due to those experiments,”
Tan Yiran said with tears in his eyes.
Su Jin and the others listened curiously as well. They knew that several people in Dr. Pei’s team had died in the research institute, but they hadn’t asked about the reason along the way.
“They conducted experiments by putting zombies and humans together, and dragged Old Zhang and others, who had medical training, to help, but did not provide even a single pair of protective gloves. Old Zhang and the others… were infected on the spot,”
Fang Zhengyang started crying as he spoke. The last sight they had of Old Zhang and his colleagues was merely a cloth-draped figure.
At that time, the people in the lab had explained it to them, saying that Old Zhang and others had forgotten to bring gloves and were unfortunately cut by a scalpel, which led to the infection.
“Old Zhang and his colleagues were all stalwarts of the medical department. How could they collectively forget to wear gloves during surgery? They definitely did it on purpose!”
Tan Yiran grew more and more angry as he spoke. The four of them had remained because they had nothing to do with medicine, and the research institute was short of people who could conduct experiments.
Liang Wei also sighed angrily. Capable individuals were being spoiled by those people at the research institute, wasn’t it better to let them heal and save people? Xu Mingzhi and others now don’t know how many lives they have saved already. Doctors are so scarce in the Apocalypse! Besides, Old Zhang and his colleagues were also renowned doctors.
Such a pity, such a pity indeed.
“Su Jin, thank you for bringing Dr. Pei and his team back safely,”
Liang Jiuhui earnestly said. He had not expected E-city to be such a perilous place and Su Jin’s team had completed the mission so well, even without showing their faces. This was truly beyond his expectations.
