For seventeen years in the apocalypse, the fields yielded no crops. Lin Man and her mother struggled daily on the brink of starvation and thirst, until one day, she obtained a space.
When these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Those who can come with Lin Zhongrong are indeed not ordinary people. They are either the people in charge of the base, or the outstanding descendants or subordinates of the people in charge.
After all, the Zombie King was such an important event, and Lin Zhongrong did not deliberately conceal it, so the people present came from various forces and families in the Reunion Base, but most of them had a good relationship with Lin Zhongrong.
When they learned that Lin Zhongrong had found his daughter, they were only surprised and treated it as a piece of news. Although many people secretly looked at Lin Man, they did not take it too seriously. But if this daughter was someone who could kill a zombie king, it would be a completely different story.
Lin Zhongrong was also shocked and asked Lin Man, "Xiaoman, did you kill him?"
Lin Man glanced at Lin Cheng and nodded: "It's me."
The researcher who was very unhappy and irritated because so many people stepped into his laboratory was even more dissatisfied when he saw that his first words were retorted: "Chief Lin, this is a very serious occasion. Even if you want to raise your daughter's value too much, there is no need to do so at this time." As he said this, he glanced at Lin Cheng with a hint of meaning.
Lin Zhongrong was furious. What idiot had chosen this idiot? He shouldn't have been so anxious to come here that he didn't even carefully screen the candidates, letting the research center choose them on their own. And then he claimed to be the most professional! With that kind of brain, how professional could he be?
Nan Ming, who had been squeezed into a corner by so many people, suddenly squeezed over and said, "I can prove that Miss Lin killed the Zombie King. There are surveillance cameras on the airport, and several cameras have captured the footage."
Nan Ming suddenly felt fortunate to have installed several cameras specifically to welcome this group of people and equipment. He hadn't intended them to be used, but when the airfield was being renovated, he felt something was missing. So he activated a few, but in his haste, he'd only activated the cameras and not the security screens.
However, he had directed the footage before, and actually saw how the zombie king sneaked into the transport plane, how he took people hostage, and how Lin Man showed his supernatural power and stabbed through the transport plane with a knife.
Lin Zhongrong looked at this person with satisfaction. He didn't know him, but he should be the leader of the Nanming base, right?
"You are the leader of Nanmingnan, right?"
"I dare not call myself the chief in front of Commander Lin. Commander Lin's name is well-known to me and I have heard of it for a long time." Nan Ming was very humble.
"Chief Nan single-handedly built a base that has sheltered hundreds of thousands of people over the years, making a huge contribution to humanity. Whenever people talk about South China, they must mention Chief Nan. I have great respect for his deeds."
Nan Ming was almost getting cocky, and kept saying that he was being praised too much and was far inferior to Commander Lin.
Everyone watched the two of them chatting, with an expression that said, "Do you know what time it is?"
The researcher's face darkened. He felt his dignity and professional standing were being challenged, and he couldn't help but push up his glasses. "Commander Lin, and this person, if you want to communicate, please step aside, okay?"
Lin Zhongrong was deliberately ignoring him and sneered, "What's your name?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then spoke out his name without hesitation. Would they seek revenge upon him after learning his name? He wasn't afraid. With his position at the research center, as the primary investigator in the dissection of the Zombie King, his contributions could not be erased, and his position could not be easily shaken.
Lin Zhongrong said slowly: "You have touched a zombie just now, right? If you touch a zombie's hand to adjust your glasses, it doesn't matter if you want to kill yourself, but if you touch others with your hands that are contaminated with the zombie virus, no matter how many people you touch, you will not be able to harm them. So I have serious doubts about your technical level." He nodded slightly, and two people quickly subdued the researcher, ignored his shouting, took off his gloves, and quickly got him out.
No one said a word. It was unclear whether they were afraid of Lin Zhongrong or had long been accustomed to his style of doing things.
However, this was the first time that Lin Man witnessed her father's domineering behavior. This was a blatant trick, and he tricked you so badly that you couldn't refute it, and then he would take advantage of you being speechless to get rid of you cleanly and efficiently.
But then again, if that person hadn't pushed up his glasses, he wouldn't have been found guilty. But if Lin Zhongrong hadn't deliberately provoked him, he wouldn't have been so annoyed as to push up his glasses...
Lin Man couldn't figure out whether his father set a trap on purpose or it was just a coincidence.
But her dad is really fierce, but she likes his temper. This is what you should do to people who are annoying and chattering!
But what surprised her even more was that the ones who had just attacked were Han Yeqing and one of his companions. Lin Cheng hadn't moved because he was wearing gloves and had dealt with zombies before. But when had Han Yeqing approached the researcher? Had he known her father would give that order? And with a nod from one side, the other side immediately took action...
Lin Man felt that Han Yeqing was a talented person. She could not only understand her father's thoughts, but was also decisive enough.
Then Lin Man felt that he was not bad at all, as he could think of so many things in an instant.
After she figured this out, the first person she went to see was... Lin Cheng.
Her father had many capable subordinates, and he was just one of them, and those people might be vying to show off in front of her father. Looking at the attitudes of He Yue, Han Yeqing and others, their relationship with him could be said to be very bad. Lin Man suddenly felt that Lin Cheng's situation was indeed not easy.
Lin Cheng: ...There seems to be something wrong with this expression? Why does it seem as if there is some sympathy? He looked at Lin Man questioningly.
After Lin Zhongrong kicked out a noisy and inexplicable guy, he felt relieved, but suddenly he found that his precious daughter and that kid Lin Cheng were flirting with each other?
As if he didn't exist?
He snorted, "There are indeed too many people here. Let's all go out and wait. Chief Nan, tell me about how you discovered this Zombie King. And Xiaoman, tell me about your fight with the Zombie King."
Lin Man blinked his eyes and did not "fight".
Lin Cheng said, "Sir, I'll stay and watch."
Lin Zhongrong nodded: "Okay, be careful."
Han Yeqing came in at this moment and said, "Sir, I'll stay too. Maybe I can help."
Lin Zhongrong also nodded.
When Lin Man went out, he couldn't help but look back and saw Lin Cheng and Han Yeqing standing on the left and right of the platform one meter away, watching others busying themselves calmly.
As if noticing her gaze, he tilted his head slightly and nodded at her with warm eyes.
Lin Man's mood brightened a little.
The cabin was closed and it was quiet inside. The people outside went to another transport plane for a meeting. After listening to Nan Ming's ups and downs as he recounted the whole story, he was amazed. This zombie king was too cunning. He could even escape!
"He's hiding in a transport plane. Is he planning to go to our base?" someone suddenly said.
"If it hadn't been discovered, it would have been very likely that," said another.
A cunning and treacherous creature, no different from a human, capable of turning people into zombies without restraint, had gone to their base. Wouldn't that just be left to their own devices? The thought of that scenario filled people with dread.
People looked at Lin Man again, wanting to know how she killed the zombie. Lin Man just said it dryly, which made people very unsatisfied. At this time, Zhang Kaiqi and Song Hui jumped out and vividly restored the hijacking scene.
Everyone was stunned. How could the Zombie King be so talkative? Had he become a spirit?
But Lin Zhongrong's daughter is really smart. Most girls would be at a loss in that situation, but she kept her composure. And she had already designed it from the moment the communicator was mentioned, right?
But the most important thing is, how did she hit the transport plane? Looking at the surveillance footage, she must have been holding some secret weapon. How come they had never seen it before?
Lin Zhongrong didn't care about that. He breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Lin Man hadn't fought a zombie at all. He couldn't imagine his beautiful, delicate daughter fighting a monster like that. But when he learned that it was a one-sided, long-range attack that killed her, he was silent for a long time. He stroked Lin Man's hair and sighed, "Dad just wanted you to be a carefree, ordinary person. I didn't expect you to be so outstanding. I don't know whether to be sad or happy."
Everyone: Before you say this, please take a moment to calm down the raised corners of your mouth and the pride in your eyes. It may make you sound more convincing.
Then Lin Zhongrong's expression straightened. "We don't know how this zombie king was born, but it's certain that zombies have this evolutionary trend. Therefore, the group of zombies in Dongyang Base must be eradicated as soon as possible!"
Lin Man: "Are there still zombies?"
Lin Zhongrong: “…” Oops, I let it slip!
