Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 750: Han Yue’s Suspicions
Chapter 750: Chapter 750: Han Yue’s Suspicions
In the evening, at the dining table of the True Martial Sect within F City Base, Wu Xingye brought out his treasured good liquor and said he wanted to drink with Dragon Ruler’s Long Aotian and the others until they were drunk and would not return.
“Master, maybe drink less, Brother Long and the others have things to do tomorrow,”
Bu Hong advised, truly worried that if Wu Xingye got drunk, he would start that again…
“No worries, if Uncle Wu is happy, we should keep him company and drink a bit more,”
Seeing these people safe and sound again at the base, Lin Xiuyuan was actually very pleased. After all, F City Base was the “birthplace” of the name Long Aotian…
Lu Hao did not decline either, since Su Xiangzhe and Lu Guanhai were all fond of liquor; even if they got drunk tonight, a short rest in the space would set everything right.
As a result, after three rounds of drinks, Bu Hong and Wan Anran watched helplessly as Wu Xingye began dancing a senior’s social dance in public, and embarrassingly, they had to support him to his bedroom to rest.
“Brother Long, the materials you guys left here last time sold for a total of 630,000 Crystal Cores. I’ll have someone deliver them to you tomorrow,”
sat down and said.
“Thanks a lot. Like last time, we will also leave some behind before we depart, and we’ll rely on you guys then,”
Lin Xiuyuan said.
“We are the ones who should thank you. Thanks to your help, our base has now fully developed. Last time, an entire small base nearby even moved their people here,”
Bu Hong said proudly.
“There are still small bases nearby?”
Lu Hao asked tentatively.
Bu Hong nodded, “Yep, they are actually the ones that Liu Jianyuan had exiled, all people with elderly and children. In the long term, children are definitely our hope for the future, so we really welcome them here.”
“I see, the larger bases are indeed safer,”
Lu Hao understood. The merged group must be the survivors led by Xing Taian and the others.
“What about their Base Leader?”
Huang Yunxiang suddenly asked.
“I heard they have friends in S City, so they went there,”
Wan Anran said, although they had wanted those people to stay as well. If they had been willing, they would have been among the strongest in F City Base. However, it seemed the other party did not agree.
“Oh, that’s good then,”
Huang Yunxiang mumbled, relieved that Liang Jiuqing would probably not have to wait in vain.
“What do you mean?”
Bu Hong asked, puzzled.
Realizing she had spoken out of turn, Huang Yunxiang quickly explained, “Aren’t you the Base Leader here too? As they say, ’one mountain cannot contain two tigers.’ What if he had fought you for the position?”
Huang Yunxiang’s words amused Bu Hong and the others, immediately dispelling their concerns.
“Being a Base Leader isn’t easy. If someone really fought me for it, I’d be only too happy to hand it over,”
Bu Hong laughed heartily.
After a meal with plenty of drinks, following tradition, the family returned to the small western-style building they had lived in before, which was already cleaned and tidy.
Lu Hao was curious about what Su Jin was doing in the space, so after locking all the doors and windows, he said goodbye to everyone and entered the space.
In the space, it seemed that Lin Tianzhen and the others who had already gone in were counting something in Lu Residence.
“This child is getting bolder and bolder, how can she go out and fight on her own? What if she encounters danger?”
Lin Tianzhen’s voice came through.
“Mom, I was just so bored, and I used the Mental Shield when I went out,”
Mao Qiqi said with an aggrieved tone.
“What happened?”
Lu Hao asked as he approached Su Jin.
Su Jin glanced at Mao Qiqi, who was being interrogated by everyone, and said helplessly, “Qiqi was too bored today and went out alone through the H City Teleportation Array, spending the afternoon killing zombies.”
“How many did she kill?”
Lu Hao asked.
“Not too many, just over eight hundred. I only killed those inside the alley; I didn’t even dare to step out of the alleymouth,”
When Lu Hao asked her, the previously dispirited Mao Qiqi immediately perked up.
“That’s not many? Weren’t you scared to do it alone?”
Mao Zhihang couldn’t help but ask, even he would have been scared.
“Not scared, because that’s our home,”
Mao Qiqi said with a tilt of her head and a smile.
“Qiqi, if you want to go there again next time, you can, but you must go with one of us. Is that okay?”
Su Jin went over to comfort her.
“Of course, that’s fine. There are so many zombies there you couldn’t finish killing them all,”
Mao Qiqi said proudly, holding her basket full of Crystal Core trophies.
“Where are there unstoppable zombies?”
Nie Qing and the others had also entered the space and, hearing Qiqi’s words, asked curiously.
Learning about what Qiqi had been up to, Lin Xiuyuan grew interested too. They hadn’t killed zombies in a long time, and it sounded pretty good to spare time to kill zombies in H city.
“Auntie, don’t worry. If Qiqi goes out again, we will accompany her,”
Seeing Lin Tianzhen still worried, Su Jin comforted her.
“Ah, I’m used to it. This child, when she was in the base with Lian Jiyue, she would always sneak out,”
Lin Tianzhen said helplessly.
During the time they sold supplies in F city’s base, the family took turns going to the alley of their old house in H city to accompany Mao Qiqi in killing zombies.
Selling supplies and killing zombies at the same time, their days were indeed fully scheduled.
Bu Hong even dispatched some people to continue helping Long Aotian to maintain order on-site and even to count Crystal Cores. The F city base became extraordinarily lively.
The news that Dragon Ruler had arrived at F city’s base also reached B city’s base.
“When did they arrive at F city’s base?”
Han Yue asked Fan He, who had come to deliver the message.
“Three afternoons ago,”
After thinking for a moment, Fan He answered.
“Three afternoons ago… that really is a coincidence,”
Han Yue looked at the timetable he had drawn on his desk.
Three days ago was precisely when the Heart Talk Team returned from Y country, and that very afternoon, Dragon Ruler appeared at F city’s base.
And last time too, right after the Heart Talk Team escaped from B city’s base, Dragon Ruler appeared at the F city base.
Could this really all be a coincidence?
Why did he always feel that the Heart Talk Team and Dragon Ruler were interconnected, yet he had absolutely no evidence or leads to prove it?
“Wang Liang, call Zhang Mingxu for me,”
Han Yue thought of a possibility and his expression immediately changed.
“Okay, sure,”
Wang Liang glanced at the paper on Han Yue’s desk and left silently.
“Young Master Han, you wanted to see me?”
Wang Liang quickly returned with Zhang Mingxu.
“Yes, it’s like this. We’re not too busy at the moment. You and Duan Hongyuan go to S city’s base together. Record the time when the Heart Talk Team gets back to the S city base for me. I’ll explain this matter to my father later,”
Han Yue said.
“Just need to record the time when the Heart Talk Team arrives at S city’s base?”
Zhang Mingxu asked with suspicion. What was this about?
