Chapter 172 Continue Execution
Ji Wanwan gently exhaled and turned to look at Qi Hao: "Brother Qi Hao, have you ever thought that the mutation of the survivors in Villa 9 might not be caused by our people?"
Qi Hao's expression changed.
Yes, the reason why they created missing people was because they could come back safely, but if they mutated into zombies, there would be no way to save them. In any case, they would not do anything to harm the survivors, so this would not be Wanwan's plan.
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Qi Hao's face changed, but nearly half of the people present also changed their faces.
Ji Wanwan calmly scanned the crowd, silently noting down everyone's expressions.
Ji Xing's expression was solemn: "They've struck again, and just before we were about to do so. This timing is truly fortuitous."
Xu Siming nodded grimly. "Yes, we were already prepared for any stress reactions from the base personnel. This has disrupted all plans, and the survivors in the base are completely out of our control."
Xia Li took off the big knife from his back and placed it heavily on the floor: "Don't let me know who it is, or I will make him suffer!"
Mingjing shrank her neck and dared not say a word. The confusion and helplessness in her eyes made people feel pity.
Wu Xun and Wen Yuheng looked confused and obviously not in the right state of mind.
Wang Youde still looked very clever: "Then should we continue to make people disappear?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over.
Wang Youde shrank his neck, looking frightened: "Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Qi Hao was amused: "No problem, the question you raised is a very good one."
Wang Youde looked at Qi Hao aggrievedly, with an expression that said, "I don't believe you at all."
I thought the conversation would just end in silence, but Ji Wanwan unexpectedly continued, "Everyone should also think about whether we should continue with our plan."
Not surprisingly, most people felt that it should not continue.
The base is already in chaos. The most important thing now is to find a way to stabilize the survivors in the base to prevent them from taking the opportunity to cause chaos.
Ultimately, the plan was scrapped and all focus was put on investigating the killer.
Wait until everyone leaves.
Zhou Kai and Qi Hao suddenly turned back.
Ji Wanwan was not surprised at all to see the two of them appear, because there were originally two plans, one was put out in the open and known to everyone, and the other was put in secret and known only to the three of them.
She handed over the coffee that had been prepared in advance: "Brother Kai, Brother Qi Hao, please sit down."
Zhou Kai was not polite and sat leisurely on the sofa: "Did you see the clue?"
Qi Hao was not to be outdone and moved closer to Ji Wanwan and said, "That Wang Youde looks silly, but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with him."
Zhou Kai sneered: "Some stupidity can be disguised, but..."
He glanced at Qi Hao meaningfully: "Some stupidity can't be faked."
Qi Hao: “?”
Can this be tolerated?
He instantly flew into a rage: "What do you mean by that?"
Zhou Kai curled his lips: "It doesn't mean anything. What do you mean by being so anxious?"
Qi Hao leaned back in his chair in an instant: "Am I anxious? I'm not anxious! I'm just tired of leaning. Stand up straight for a while. Is that okay?"
Ji Wanwan couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, you two stop messing around. Brother Qi Hao, please sit down too. Let's get down to business first."
Qi Hao was a little dazed as he hadn't heard Ji Wanwan speak so softly for a long time.
I hope this damn apocalypse ends soon!
Give back the soft, cute and adorable Wanwan!
His heart trembled, and he obediently walked to the chair opposite the desk and sat down, supporting his chin with his hand, looking at Ji Wanwan without blinking.
The latter's cheeks turned red when he looked at her, and she felt helpless for a while.
This shy look made Qi Hao in a good mood: "Where's Wanwan? Did you notice anything wrong?"
Ji Wanwan shook her head: "No, as you said, he looks very simple. Of course, it is not ruled out that he has good acting skills."
Zhou Kai asked the question that had been on his mind for a long time: "Why did Boss Ji suspect Wang Youde?"
Ji Wanwan wanted to say it was intuition, but she felt that saying so would make her seem careless, so she twirled her fingertips and said, "When the mummy first appeared, the first one of our people to arrive at the scene was Wang Youde.
The second time the mummy appeared in the central square, I followed the residual energy all the way over and found that the person in the alley was Wang Youde.
When the entire Room 26 mutated for the third time, apart from Zheng Yuan who received the alarm, the first person to arrive at the scene was Wang Youde.
The locations of these three districts are completely different, but every time Wang Youde is the first to appear on the scene. Don’t you think this is too coincidental?
Zhou Kai narrowed his eyes thoughtfully. "Criminals often like to return to the scene of their crimes to admire their achievements and look for loopholes. So, Wang Youde is indeed a suspect."
"Hiss..." After thinking about it carefully, Qi Hao also felt that this was the case: "Yes, we were the ones who put the zombies in Villa No. 9 today. The murderer was not aware of it, so Wang Youde was not the first to arrive at the scene this time."
He frowned: "But Wanwan, is there a possibility that this is really just a coincidence?"
Zhou Kai nodded in agreement, a rare gesture. "Although the probability is low, it's not impossible. Based on this alone, it's difficult for us to conclude that Wang Youde has a problem."
Ji Wanwan really wanted to say, of course there’s more to it than that.
Wang Youde was rescued from the Bai Ze Union, and his eyes, which looked very similar to Bai Ze's, made her instinctively think of Bai Ze.
But these things were all very vague and she couldn't express them.
Ji Wanwan rubbed his brows and asked, "What do you think?"
Zhou Kai and Qi Hao exchanged a glance and said in unison: "Continue to test and observe."
After receiving the unanimous answer from the two, Ji Wanwan nodded slightly: "Then let's continue with the plan."
Qi Hao, however, looked embarrassed, hesitantly looking at Ji Wanwan: "Wanwan, the situation in the base is serious right now. If we continue to execute according to the plan, can we still control the situation?"
Ji Wanwan's expression was stern, her eyes sharp. "Whether we can control it or not is not important. If we can't find the murderer, even if we can temporarily control the situation, the base will still collapse if it continues like this."
Zhou Kai nodded in agreement: "Yes, those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters. For the sake of long-term stability, temporary sacrifices are understandable."
Qi Hao curled his lips awkwardly: "Okay."
Suddenly, Ji Wanwan thought of something: "I have a feeling that the other party will take advantage of the chaos in the next two days to make a move, making the already turbulent base even worse."
Zhou Kai and Qi Hao's expressions changed, and they looked at Ji Wanwan at the same time: "What should we do?"
The latter gently twirled the ring on his finger, then spoke slowly, "Hold still for now. If they attack, you must immediately... When that happens, let the base become as chaotic as possible. Protect the survivors within the base and minimize casualties..."
