Somewhere in Beijing...
The sunlight gradually turned orange and poured into the spotless room through the window.
A man in a well-ironed shirt and black trousers was standing in front of a huge electronic screen with his back to the door.
Complex data and countless surveillance images flow on the screen...
"How is it possible that there is no trace at all!" His voice was low, but it was filled with a suppressed and extremely crazy tone: "Where is it hiding?"
Knock, knock, knock——
The man didn't look back: "Get in."
A subordinate in a black uniform walked in quickly with his head lowered: "Sir...something happened at the Mu family base."
"explain..."
"Mu Jin...is dead. Along with his two children, Mu Cheng and Mu Shu, they were also...destroyed together."
The man finally turned around slowly: "Who did this?"
The subordinate lowered his head even more: "The news from over there said... there were about ten young people, plus a child, and... they also brought a mutant parrot..."
"Heh..." He waved his hand dismissively, "It's always these reckless idiots... Let them run wild for a few more days... Will the mutant plants find their way?"
The subordinate shook his head: "No news has been sent back yet!"
"A bunch of rubbish...get out!"
"Yes!" The subordinates bowed and retreated immediately as if they had been pardoned, closing the door carefully.
The room suddenly fell into dead silence.
The man cast his eyes on the flickering screen, his fingertips tapping the table unconsciously, muttering to himself: "...Where is the bottom..."
At the same time, the deserted and dilapidated road was filled with dust.
Chi Yanzhou stared at Shen Zhiheng not far away through the car window, picked up the intercom and said, "Let's see what tricks he wants to play..."
Gu Qi: "Okay, Brother Yan."
Shi Xu: "He's relying on us... Brother Yan, are you really going to take him back to the base?"
Chi Yanzhou: "Look under your nose..."
"Watch me!" He Zhuo excitedly lowered the car window halfway upon hearing this, leaned out half of his body, and shouted at Shen Zhiheng who was being "besieged" by a dozen zombies: "Hey! Peacock! Still breathing..."
"Oh my, brothers... Look, this zombie is so dangerous!" Shen Zhiheng said as he dodged a rotten arm. The vines wrapped around the zombie's neck and tightened it.
"I was barely away from you for less than half an hour, and I was nearly eaten alive by those filthy creatures! If I weren't a little brother who had to save my life, I'd really have to trouble you brothers to come down and 'collect' my body... What a hassle that would cause you!"
He Zhuo scoffed, "Don't try that! Flower Peacock, you didn't look like you were nearly buried when you attacked me just now... Tell me, what are you trying to do by blocking me here?"
Shen Zhiheng dealt with the last few zombies and controlled the vines to roll out the crystal core.
"The entrance fee to the Chi family base..." He shook the crystal core in his hand, smiling: "Isn't this enough to make up for it? I can't come here empty-handed, right?"
He turned around and walked towards the SUV step by step: "Brother Zhuo...look at what you said, what can I do?
"I just want to find some companionship with you brothers and go to the Chi family base together... You see, it's not safe for me to go alone. If I really die on the way, you will feel so bad when you think about it later, right?"
Ji Xian in the back seat: "Come on up."
