Chapter 99: The Question of Ji Zai's Family
"To the back mountain?"
Liang Qiyue didn't say anything, but Nan Yao, who had come to freeload breakfast, heard this and spoke up.
Yang Le left when Nan invited him.
She finished her work and now has to rush to the next job; she's really busy.
After Nan Yao nodded and greeted Yang Le, she sat down without ceremony, took out her own bowl and ladled out some porridge. "Don't do anything reckless. I went to the president yesterday to find out what happened. I only found out that Ningda is actually one of the lab's strongholds. I was so scared that I didn't sleep all night."
"Since someone saw the people from the lab in the back mountain, it proves that there must be residual zombies or viruses in the back mountain. It's too dangerous, I don't recommend going there."
Seeing that she was eating her porridge without any politeness, Ji Zai took the lead and put a piece of cold dish into his own porridge, enjoying a delicious bite.
After satisfying her taste buds, she said, "The risk is proportional to the reward. There may be zombies in the back mountain, but there may also be an antidote. We knew nothing about the zombie virus before, so I didn't consider it."
"But don't we have experts in this field now?"
"If we have reasonable resources, it would be a waste not to make use of them."
Nan invites Liang Qiyue to come and take a look.
To be honest, they couldn't understand it.
This statement seems to imply that the newly arrived black slaves should be exploited.
But wasn't the alliance leader very wary of those people before? Why is he using them now?
How can Ji Zai be so sure that they can be used by the Ning Alliance?
Nan was curious, but she was cautious. She usually wouldn't ask the BOSS about such important matters concerning the core, but could ask the president later.
Compared to her caution, Liang Qiyue was much more straightforward, "Boss, why are we using them now? Didn't you always dislike them before?"
“That was before, things are different now,” Ji Zai explained. “I disliked them before because we were penniless back then. We had nothing but wooden sticks and clothes poles. If they had any rebellious intentions, or if someone from another force had infiltrated our ranks, we would have been in big trouble.”
"But things are different now. Now we have plenty of firepower, a world of difference from them. Crushing them is just a matter of lifting a finger."
"Since it poses no threat, what is there to worry about?"
The reason why Ji Zai didn't dislike them was simple.
She's grown strong enough to fly on her own, so she's no longer afraid of the storms outside.
So what's wrong with giving them a chance?
Liang Qiyue understood. She almost forgot that the Ningmeng now was not the same Ningmeng that would tremble at the sight of zombies. Now they had the truth in their hands and would shoot anyone they didn't like. What was there to be afraid of?
If anyone should be afraid, it's others who should be afraid of them.
As Ji Zai ate his porridge, he said, "Actually, there's another reason. That is, our Ningmeng doesn't have any experts in the medical field, which puts us at a much more passive position than others."
"Because there are no experts, we can't understand even the most essential information."
"Dr. Cui happens to be a leading expert in this field, and with him around, we can be a little safer."
Liang Qiyue and Nan Yao looked at each other and nodded involuntarily.
That's right.
They're not doctors, so they really can't tell what effect the virus has on people. I'm afraid they might fall into a trap one day without even realizing it.
If a medical expert were to defuse the mine, it would be a safeguard for Ningmeng and for them.
The two had no objections.
The three of them ate their porridge in silence.
While eating...
Liang Qiyue suddenly remembered something, "Alliance Leader, it's been half a month since you last went online, hasn't it? Are you still online?"
There are no records of it.
Because the shocking photo and caption she posted earlier were enough to keep netizens discussing it for a while.
Such a shocking revelation won't die down for at least ten days to two weeks.
It's easy to imagine that her account was flooded with comments.
This is also why the historical record has not been uploaded to the internet for so long.
Ji Zai took out his fully charged phone, just about to turn it on to check the internet, when Nan Yao asked curiously, "Alliance Leader, since this phone can access the internet, have you tried contacting your family? They should know your situation by now, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Zai sneered, "You overestimate my family. During the period when the internet was still online, that is, when I was sending messages while using the internet on the rooftop, they saw that I was still breathing, so they were relieved and disappeared without a trace."
Nan Yao exclaimed, "Aren't you an only child? Aren't only children spoiled just like me? Why are your parents so dismissive of you!"
During the period when the internet was still connected, Nan invited her parents to send her text messages and received a series of caring greetings and even helped her analyze her current situation.
The conclusion was that she should stay hidden, and they had already sent people to bail her out.
As long as he's alive, Nan Yao can be rescued.
After listening, Liang Qiyue nodded seriously, "My family said the same thing, that they asked someone to bail me out, and told me to follow anyone I see."
The two only daughters looked at each other for a while, then looked at the other only daughter.
Ji Zai, an only child who felt out of place, gritted her teeth and said, "I am an only child, but my family is a large one. Everyone in the family lives together. In this generation, besides me, I have an older sister and two older brothers."
“There is a very distinctive characteristic in our family: we can’t kill them the first time we hit them, and we can’t kill them again.”
"So when my family was sure I wasn't going to die on the first day of the apocalypse, they were extremely confident in my cockroach-like genes and let me roam free."
When Ji Zai mentioned this, his face turned sour. "Do they take me for some kind of big shot? I'm very fragile. I'm the weakest one in the family. Can't they worry about my safety?"
What was said unintentionally may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Liang Qiyue asked curiously, "Old Ji, what do your family members do? They're so eccentric."
Ji Zai thought for a moment, "My family isn't anything special, one's socially awkward, one's neurotic, and one's a drama queen..."
"Huh? Then why aren't they worried about you? This is the end of the world, the end of the world!"
Liang Qiyue and Nan Yao couldn't understand it.
Under normal circumstances, it would be fine.
But with a post-apocalyptic world and zombies, you could easily be reduced to ashes if you're not careful. You should at least be worried about that.
Perhaps because they both came from wealthy families, their thoughts quickly jumped to another dimension.
The family members mentioned in the records are not necessarily malicious people.
Get rid of her; it'll be a good thing to have one less competitor.
Their eyes were filled with worry.
Seeing this, Ji Zai paused suspiciously for a moment, then said sincerely, "Actually, if my sister hadn't been busy with something, I would have suspected that she was the one who caused this apocalypse."
Liang Qiyue and Nan Yao: "......"
no.
What terrible things are you saying to us?
Does your family actually have the potential to become the boss?
Nan Yao chuckled dryly, "Alliance Leader, don't joke with us. This kind of joke isn't funny."
Ji Zai also gave a dry laugh.
Then, the air stopped.
Nan Yao recalled Ji Zai's extraordinary power and vaguely guessed what was going on, but she really didn't dare to laugh now.
Seeing this, Ji Zai said somewhat embarrassedly, "Actually, the day my sister stops being socially anxious, she will terrify the world."
"Just like now."
Nan Yao's smile faded. "Alliance Leader, may I ask, does our sister still have social anxiety?"
"I don't know."
"Then you should let her maintain her social anxiety. Social anxiety is a good habit, worth having for life. Please don't let her get better."
