"Ugh~ Oh no~ Brother Xu~ There's someone here!"
The woman gently pushed away the man who was pressing down on her, chuckling softly.
"Then let him wait, sweetie~ Let your brother give you a kiss, mmm~ So good~"
Niu Ben stood there with his head down, the bag in his hand punctured by his finger.
"Niu Ben, what brings you here so soon? Is there something urgent?"
Xu Hu then pretended to have just noticed the man with his head down, "What's that in your hand?"
Niu Ben lifted the bag in his hand higher, "Boss! I've come to deliver everyone's spirit cores to you, I hope you'll accept them!"
"Oh! It's a crystal core! Okay! You can put it on the ground! Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Ben, stay for dinner!"
Niu Ben glanced at the woman in the man's arms with an unreadable expression, then shook his head. "No, boss! I won't bother you any longer. I'm going out to check on the mission."
"Alright then! Go ahead."
As Niu Ben walked along the road, that sentence kept echoing in his mind: We all support you to be the base commander!
We all support you becoming the base commander!!!
He looked down at the red marks on his hand and clenched his fist tightly.
Xu Hu! You're no longer fit to be the base commander! Just wait! I'll bring you down.
Suddenly he remembered the well-hidden medicine in the drawer, which Wu Sen had secretly hidden away. It was definitely useful!
......
Two kilometers outside the base, the baby sat on the ground watching Ah Xiao and giggling, while the man observed him from time to time with binoculars.
"Ah Xiao, it'll be soon! We'll see him soon! You'll recover quickly!"
"Heh~"
He turned his head, wanting to see the zombie's reaction, but Ah Xiao was playing with the baby with a big, aunt-like smile on her face.
"Alright! Let's get some rest early tonight, and we'll visit them tomorrow."
The man, in a fit of pique, put the baby in the car and placed a large plate of heated cooked meat on the table.
"Sweetie~ Eat some food first, and you can play with Sisi tomorrow, okay?"
"Ha!"
"Listen to her, she's tired and needs to rest early."
"Heh~"
Ah Xiao obediently grabbed large pieces of meat and stuffed them into her mouth. After finishing, she obediently returned to her cage and lay down to sleep.
After working non-stop for half a month, the base was eerily quiet today. Everyone was fast asleep at home, and even Su Xing, who was on guard duty in the security booth, was slumped over.
"Beep beep!"
The horn sounded at the door, and Su Xing casually pressed the "agree" button.
"No need for checks, bro? Why is the boss letting people in so easily this time?"
"What's it to you? There must be a reason why the boss is doing this. Just open the door, we just need to do as he says!"
"Oh!"
The man had prepared his explanation, but when he saw the base gate suddenly open, he paused for two seconds before starting the vehicle.
Upon entering the base, the man was immediately captivated by its bustling atmosphere.
This place was unlike any base he had ever seen before; it was like a unique paradise, a place where he had escaped the apocalypse.
There were even vendors on the street selling things, though they were only selling things the vendors didn't need.
But everyone's face showed happiness and joy.
"Heh~"
When Ah Xiao saw a living human being other than the two people in the room for the first time, she wanted to reach out and grab them through the window.
"Ah Xiao! Mind your image!"
"Ha!"
"Ah~ Hahaha!"
The baby waved its fairly sturdy arms, and thanks to the man's constant feeding over the past two days, the baby had become quite chubby.
The normally grumpy zombie sat obediently and even tried to fasten the baby's seatbelt.
"Sit still, okay? We need to hurry!"
Upon arriving at the base's security center, the man parked the car and got out alone, carrying the baby.
"Um... hello, I'd like to ask you about someone!"
"Who is it? Tell me, I'm sure I know them!"
Lin Yu patted his chest confidently; there wasn't a single person in this base he didn't know!
"His surname is Lin! He's a doctor!"
"A doctor?" Lin Yu hissed, realizing there really were some he didn't recognize.
Aside from their family, there are very few people with the surname Lin in the base.
"This... um... maybe I don't know this person! Are you sure you didn't get the name wrong? Think again!"
"I'm not mistaken, please think again! I need to find him urgently!"
Lin Yu was just as anxious, "This...this...I know everyone in the base! There's definitely no one like this! Wait a minute, I'll go ask for you."
Then, Lin Yu dashed into the center of the base as if riding on wheels of fire.
"Bang!"
"Hey? Xiaoyu, what brings you here again! Do you have anything else for me?"
"Uncle Chen, there's something I want to ask you!"
"Hmm? What is it? Tell me!"
Lin Yu frowned. "Uncle, have you ever heard of a PhD named Lin?"
Chen Chao stopped what he was doing. "Dr. Lin? Lin Ge?"
"Lin Ge? I've never heard of such a person before. Is he someone from our base?"
Chen Chao shook his head. "Yes and no. He's an elusive person, not very reliable. Why are you suddenly asking about him?"
"Oh! Someone downstairs is looking for him! Wait, that's not right! I don't recognize that person! He's not from our base, is he?"
Lin Yu suddenly realized that the person was dressed in full armor and clearly had come from outside.
Chen Chao casually grabbed a jacket and put it on. "Come on, I'll go take a look with you!"
As the two walked out of the hall, they saw a dusty man squatting by the roadside, holding a swaddled baby.
"That's him! Uncle Chen."
Chen Chao stopped behind the man, his arm trembling slightly. "Brother Chang!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the man turned around abruptly, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Brother Chao! It really is you!"
"Waaaaaah! I finally found you! I can't hold on any longer!"
The man hugged the excited Chen Chao tightly, crying his eyes out.
After so many days of perseverance, the moment I saw my loved ones, everything collapsed.
Lin Yu stared wide-eyed at the scene before him. "So... what exactly is going on?"
The baby in Changzhou's arms cried out, creating a particularly heartwarming scene.
"By the way! Brother Chang, where did you go after the apocalypse? How did you end up here?"
Changzhou wiped his nose. "This is a long story. Have you met Dr. Lin?"
"You know him perfectly well; he's always elusive, and we haven't seen him for a while now!"
"Then I need to find him!"
Chen Chao asked, "Why are you looking for him? Is anyone injured? Where is your wife?"
Changzhou shook his head, looking at his dilapidated car. "Your sister-in-law...she's in an accident! I have to find her!"
"What happened? I'll go check!"
Changzhou grabbed Chen Chao's arm, "Don't go, she doesn't know you now, it's dangerous."
"What do you mean?"
"Ah Xiao...she's turned into a zombie!"
