Chapter 388 So you have been observing us?
The deputy base commander cursed in pain and lay on the ground, being stepped on by this group of people as if they didn't see anything, leaving him with no dignity at all.
He cursed without thinking, "Sheng Fei! Don't you think you can show off just because you're a small captain! If you dare to humiliate me like this, I'll make sure you can't stay in the Central Base..."
Sheng Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering the truth of his words.
This guy doesn't seem like the kind of person who would act without a purpose. What connection does he have with the Central Base?
Captain Feng also frowned, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He turned to look at Sheng Fei and silently made a gesture of wiping his neck to him.
Sheng Fei didn't say anything. He was silent for several seconds and shook his head.
"Let's go."
“…”
The group of villains at the Eternal Day Base secretly picked up a lot of loopholes, and fortunately, they finally looted all the crystal cores from them.
The central base did not suffer much loss in this wave of zombies.
But on the way back, no one dared to speak.
She only stole a glance at Sheng Fei from time to time, secretly guessing his thoughts...
When we got back to the site, it was almost dawn.
The patrol team members were replaced by a new shift, and all those who had just fought fiercely went to rest.
Captain Feng couldn't sleep, so he found Sheng Fei to ask about the situation.
He still didn't understand. "It's the end of the world now. We can no longer judge right and wrong by the old standards. That was a huge hidden danger just now. Why didn't you deal with it?"
Sheng Fei was counting the crystal cores. When they came back, they handed over all the crystal cores and spoils of battle to him.
"Old Feng, do you want to eliminate the zombies and end the apocalypse?" Sheng Fei asked instead of answering.
Captain Feng blurted out, "Of course I do! Who wouldn't want to do that now?"
Sheng Fei put the counted crystal cores into the storage ring and looked up at him. "I think the emergence of the Space-Time Exchange is to help us solve this crisis. We can get through it."
Captain Feng frowned, not letting him get around it. "I think so too, but what does that have to do with you letting that bastard go?"
"Eternal Day Base isn't a base that can carry hope. I used to think the Central Base was, but if that's not the case, I'll look for other bases."
“…”
Captain Feng's heart was shocked.
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he looked at Sheng Fei.
From the first time they met, he felt that this guy had the sharp and natural aura of a superior, not like an ordinary survivor.
What happened tonight helped him figure out his origins, and he thought he finally understood him.
Unexpectedly, these few words made him understand his thoughts more clearly...
Very disappointed.
He doesn't trust anyone.
Including these brothers who have been through life and death with them.
He pursed his lips. "So you've been observing us?"
Sheng Fei shook his head. "It's not you, it's the Central Base. I trust our team, but the team can't determine the decisions of the top leaders. I hope the Spacetime Exchange will be used by good decision makers."
Captain Feng was originally full of frustration, but after hearing these words, his mind suddenly turned around and he felt enlightened.
That’s right, if he didn’t trust them, why would he risk his life to fight his way into a pile of zombies to ask for medicine?
I was surprised at how thorough his thinking was, and immediately figured out what happened tonight.
"You're keeping that bastard around just to let him cause trouble and see how the base handles things?"
"That's right."
Sheng Fei admitted it openly.
Captain Feng was also frank and direct. "You saved my life. I support any decision you make. If the base disappoints us, I will go with you."
Sheng Fei stared at him, but didn't agree outright. He just asked, "You don't trust the base either?"
Captain Feng shook his head. "I believe it, but that's assuming I don't possess any treasure and won't affect the course of the apocalypse. And you also said that the team doesn't participate in high-level decision-making. There are certain aspects I haven't touched upon, so I'm not convinced."
He trusted the base very much. At least so far, the central base was more humane than any other base.
But human hearts are the most difficult to guess. When there are sufficient interests involved, no one can guarantee whether a dark side will arise.
Sheng Fei was glad that he was so thorough, and this was the answer he wanted.
"Okay! Then let's all wait for someone from headquarters to arrive!"
Before tonight, he hadn't thought about telling anyone about his defenses.
But fighting side by side tonight, all the team members stood by him unconditionally without knowing the ins and outs.
Even Captain Feng, who is always cautious, wanted to silence the witness directly.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't touched.
Even if he couldn't stay at the Central Base in the end, he hoped that this team that lived and died together would not be separated...
"Deputy Captain Sheng, my life is yours too. I'll go with you." Hu Ming suddenly poked his head in from outside the door and agreed in a low voice.
Zhang Kai, who was above his head, followed suit and said, "Me too."
Immediately afterwards, heads popped in from outside the door and expressed their opinions like a tape recorder.
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
"I'm also Deputy Captain Sheng!"
"Add me one, add me one!"
“…”
No one slept.
They heard what happened tonight and what that idiot said.
Too nervous.
They were afraid that the guy really had connections and that Deputy Captain Sheng would be ostracized in the base. They were also afraid that Deputy Captain Sheng would be wary of the base and run away first.
It’s okay to run away, at least take them with you.
Like Captain Feng, they believed in the base very much, but they had all died once and had devoted their lives to the base. Now they just wanted to be a little selfish.
In fact, it is not selfish. They just changed the direction they wanted to follow and bet on the force that has the greatest hope of ending the apocalypse.
Of course, they hope that the base will not disappoint them and that the direction they follow remains consistent...
The originally quiet and dim doorway was now crowded with people. A group of young men were leaning on the door frame, pushing and shoving each other, looking at him with bright eyes.
With hope and trust.
Sheng Fei felt a warm feeling in his heart, and the despair and chilling feeling he had when he left the Eternal Day Base also dissipated quietly.
He nodded vigorously, not refusing any of them, "Okay! Then we'll all go together!"
…
Daybreak gradually began.
This city, which had just been cleared of zombies, was gradually shrouded in light.
It's like just waking up.
Sheng Fei lay on the bed, his deep and clear eyes staring at the light projected on the wall, drowsy.
The news has been passed back to the headquarters. They should send people to take over the city in the next two days, right?
By then, you may not be able to act freely in this city.
He thought he had to go to the exchange as soon as possible tomorrow.
Bring back the supplies and energy barriers.
This city, which their team exchanged their lives for, is also the center of the transaction, and must be controlled in their own hands.
He touched the storage ring and used his consciousness to check the well-preserved cakes.
He turned around and looked in the direction of the villa next door, where lived the logistics staff who had never been infected by the zombie virus, and his most important family.
Today is his daughter's birthday, and he hopes it will be a happy and peaceful birthday...
