"No need to thank me. If that day ever comes, I hope you can help Xiao Leng."
The base commander gently closed the pocket watch in his hand and put it into the pocket closest to his heart.
"good!"
Song Hongfei agreed immediately.
He also realized that what he had just said was somewhat inappropriate; the base commander was such a capable person that he shouldn't need his help.
Helping anyone is helping someone. Leng Yebai is the base chief's son. The base chief helped him today, so if Leng Yebai needs help, he will naturally help him.
Let's go!
The base commander stood up from his chair, took a couple of casual strides, and was already in front of Song Hongfei.
"Now? Shouldn't we wait until tonight?"
Song Hongfei glanced at the bright sun outside and was slightly surprised.
Even if the base commander is omnipotent, it's still a little bit wrong to bring Song Wenwen into the safe base in broad daylight, isn't it?
"Maybe the decision will be different tonight."
The base commander's voice carried a hint of melancholy. He stopped talking to Song Hongfei, opened the door, and walked out.
"Okay! Let's go now!"
Without further hesitation, Song Hongfei jogged out and led the way for the base commander.
The two of them moved quickly and soon arrived at the car where Song Wenwen was hiding.
When they arrived, only Song's mother was there.
Where is Song Ning?
Song Hongfei frowned as he glanced at the car, thinking that it was too irresponsible of Song Ning to leave his mother alone here to watch the car.
If something happens, even if Song's mother is incredibly strong, she can't completely protect the car. If Song Wenwen's presence is discovered, it will cause another uproar.
“He’s gone home, and Ke Rou is home too, so it’s not appropriate for us to go back.” Song’s mother glanced at the base commander and spoke softly to Song Hongfei.
It's very simple. Song Kerou is clearly not on their side, and Song Wenwen's death may be inextricably linked to Song Kerou.
Song Wenwen naturally had no intention of returning to the villa.
Only after Song Kerou leaves can Song Wenwen go back.
"It's time to put an end to this."
When Song Hongfei heard his mother say this, he nodded slightly and did not think there was anything wrong with it.
When they first adopted Song Kerou, everyone in the Song family treated her like their own child. But as time went on, the Song family realized that adopting a child is not as simple as you treating her well and she treating you well in return.
"Let's find another place!" the base commander suddenly said. "It's not just that one villa; all 47 villas are unoccupied."
Villa No. 47 is located in a very remote area of the villa district. The villa is surrounded by flowers, trees and shrubs. Before the apocalypse, this villa was considered the king of villas.
After the energy tide subsided, weeds grew wildly, making the place eerily desolate. Few survivors who had experienced the apocalypse would choose such a cold and deserted place.
Such a villa would be perfect for Song Wenwen to hide inside.
Even if Song Wenwen accidentally escaped from inside, she wouldn't be discovered immediately.
"good!"
Song Hongfei agreed without hesitation.
He understood that Song Kerou wasn't someone who could be easily driven away, and even if he could, there was no guarantee she would come back.
To protect Song Wenwen's safety, a secluded place must be chosen.
So, before Song Ning returned, the Song couple drove their car towards the safe base.
The base commander sat in the passenger seat, with the passenger window slightly open so that people outside could see him inside.
From a distance, people spotted the base commander sitting in the car.
The base commander remained stern and unsmiling as always. His powerful aura deterred the people from approaching the car, causing them to instinctively avoid it.
Just say hello from a distance.
The base commander's car naturally didn't need to be checked, and they didn't even hand over the two ordinary crystal cores they brought in through the gate.
The car slowly made its way into the base. From a distance, the base's gatekeeper saw the base chief's face and immediately opened the gate to let them pass.
Just as they were about to enter the gate, Bai Yifan's voice came from ahead.
"Hi! Uncle Leng, how are you?"
The base commander looked up and immediately spotted Bai Yifan riding a bicycle and Bai Xizhu sitting on the back.
Bai Yifan had a smile on his face, while Bai Xizhu kept looking around at her surroundings, appearing very curious about everything.
Song Hongfei, who was driving, clearly sensed that the base commander's demeanor had changed noticeably after meeting the Bai siblings.
He became much more approachable.
"Xiao Fan! Where are you going? Why did you go out alone? Why didn't you call Xiao Leng? Your sister is still sick, and the sun is so strong outside, don't get sunburned! There are a lot of zombies outside now, so don't go too far! If anything happens, come back immediately!"
The base commander suddenly became much more talkative, and a smile appeared on his usually stern face.
"Okay! Got it!"
Bai Yifan nodded happily, riding his bicycle with his older sister as they passed by the Song family's black car.
This time, only Bai Yifan and Bai Xizhu left the gate of the safe base. The main reason was that Bai Xizhu felt she wasn't very familiar with Leng Yebai and didn't want to bring him along.
So, Bai Yifan snatched Leng Yebai's bicycle, took Bai Xizhu, and sneaked out of the safe base while Leng Yebai wasn't paying attention.
