Chapter 154 Give You a Chance
Five minutes passed in a flash. Ji Wanwan reluctantly stood up and stretched: "I feel comfortable now, let's get on with our work!"
A trace of heartache flashed across Ji's mother's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a loving smile. "Go ahead. When you're done, we'll go back together as a family."
Ji Wanwan nodded obediently, then walked towards the room. Thinking about what she would face soon, the smile on her lips slowly disappeared.
When she reached the door, she regained the calmness and indifference that a lord should have.
When I opened the door, the crying in the room stopped abruptly.
Tears as big as beans rolled down Xiaoyun's face, and there was silent despair and pain in her eyes.
Ji Wanwan looked at them expressionlessly: "Have you made a decision?"
Xiaoyun fell to the ground trembling, unable to utter a word. Brother Qi hid the reluctance in his eyes and said with difficulty: "The choice is made. I die and they live!"
Ji Wanwan curled his lips: "Okay."
She lowered her eyes to look at Xiaoyun and Tuantuan lying on the ground: "If you don't want to see your man die tragically, then you can take your daughter and leave now."
Xiaoyun whimpered, took one last look at her husband through the barrier, gritted her teeth, picked up Tuantuan, and staggered out of the room.
Mother Ji in the living room choked up in her throat and shook her head helplessly.
My daughter is being bad again.
Inside the room, Ji Wanwan stared at the man and spoke after a while: "I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins. Do you want it?"
The man raised his head blankly, as if he had misheard. The moment his eyes met the girl in front of him, hope suddenly ignited in his dead eyes.
Ji Wanwan curled her lips. "I'll give you a chance to survive. You'll carry out my mission for me, and every month I'll have someone bring you news about Xiaoyun and Tuantuan. But the price is that you can never show up again until the disaster is over and you've recovered. How about that? Do you think you'll accept?"
The man's expression changed, from pain to joy. After a long while, he let out a long breath: "I accept!"
Ji Wanwan curled her lips in satisfaction, raised her hand, and removed the spatial barrier: "Very good!"
Under the man's confused gaze, Ji Wan took two steps forward, grabbed his wrist, and disappeared in a flash.
…
Half an hour later.
Ji Wanwan walked out of the room with a tired look on her face. The door of the room was wide open and a manic roar came from inside. Mother Ji's face turned pale and she subconsciously hid in Father Ji's arms.
Father Ji raised his hand and held Mother Ji in his arms, then glanced sideways at the "person" in the room.
Ji Wanwan rubbed his brows and said, "He's gone crazy again. This person must be dealt with as soon as possible."
As she spoke, she raised her eyelids and looked at Xu Siming, who had been accompanying Ji's father and mother. "Senior, thank you for helping me gather the survivors in the base to the East District training ground. I will publicly deal with this semi-infected person and give everyone an explanation."
Seeing how hard she worked, Xu Siming frowned distressedly: "Okay."
By the time everyone arrived at the training ground, it was already dark.
"boom!"
The headlights suddenly lit up, illuminating the training ground like daylight. A huge crowd of people stood on the training ground, whispering to each other.
"call out--"
A tiny sound of breaking through the air was heard, and everyone only felt a flash before their eyes, and then they saw the lord controlling a space barrier that imprisoned the semi-infected people and appeared on the high platform of the training ground.
The crowd was in a frenzy, filled with fear or curiosity, but no one left.
Ji Wanwan looked down at the crowd: "Today, an incident occurred in the base where a semi-infected person injured someone. I believe many people have heard about it.
This incident was our dereliction of duty and it makes us very sad. Although the base has tried its best to compensate the families of the victims, it cannot erase their pain of losing their loved ones.
Here, in front of everyone, I once again solemnly apologize to the families of the victims and every survivor at the base!"
As she spoke, Ji Wanwan bowed deeply.
The crowd fell silent, silently staring at the girl on the platform.
After a long time, Ji Wanwan finally stood up.
Her compassionate gaze swept across the crowd. "We've found the semi-infected individual who caused the injury. To prevent this from happening again, I will publicly execute him in front of everyone today. At the same time, we will also reorganize the base's security to ensure that all threats to everyone's lives are minimized."
After saying that, Ji Wanwan moved her fingertips slightly, and in an instant she pinched the imprisoned half-infected person into a small blood clot.
There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd.
Many brave people watched the whole process with their eyes wide open without blinking.
Is this the lord's strength?
In an instant, a half-infected person was reduced to nothing!
So horrible!
That's right. If she didn't have such strong power, she, a young girl, would have been eaten up without leaving even a trace in the apocalypse where people are eaten without leaving any bones. How could she have created such a huge base?
Publicly executing the semi-infected person who had injured others in front of everyone not only gave an explanation but also established authority, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Those who used to disobey Ji Wanwan now dare not even fart.
Having achieved her goal, Ji Wanwan said a few more polite words and then let everyone go back to sleep.
Ji Wanwan jumped down from the platform and threw herself into the arms of her parents: "Go home, go home!"
Mother Ji stroked her daughter's soft hair and smiled gently: "Okay, go home!"
After taking two steps, Ji Wanwan turned around and looked at Ji Xing who was looking at her eagerly: "What are you standing there for? Let's go! Why don't you go back?"
Ji Xing's eyes lit up, and he jumped forward and said, "Reply, reply! My sister has spoken, how dare I, as the younger brother of the family, not reply?"
"Puchi..." Ji Wanwan couldn't help laughing, raised her hand and gave Ji Xing a smack on the head: "I've made you powerful again!"
Ji Xing was beaten and cried out, covering his head with grievance, looking at his parents as if for help.
Mother Ji's eyes curved with laughter: "You little rascal, let's see if you can still be naughty."
Although it was late at night, the family walked together chatting and laughing, and the moonlight did not seem lonely.
When I returned to my private space, Xia Li was already curled up on the sofa and asleep.
The hot pot was still on the table, but it was already cold.
Ji Wanwan felt distressed and raised her hand to gently pick up Xia Li and carry him back to bed.
Tomorrow, I will definitely compensate Ali!
After tucking the quilt into Xia Li's arms, Ji Wanwan quietly left the room and turned to Qi Hao.
At this time, 001 had already cleaned and decorated the room, and was just waiting for Ji Wanwan to put the hibernation capsule into the system space and take out a bed and put it on.
Ji Wanwan patted 001's head with satisfaction: "Well done."
001's round electronic eyes narrowed into slits with joy, as if this was the first time the host touched its head!
By the time Qi Hao lay down on the bed and wiped himself clean, the moon had already set in the west, and a faint, fish-belly-white hue appeared on the horizon...
