Chapter 150 Temporary Appeasement
Qin Hongling paid no attention to the three men's harsh words.
After all, she wasn't someone who was easily intimidated.
"Many people have wanted to kill me, but every time, it's them who die. Who do you think you are?"
Han Shuo walked up in his wheelchair with a cold face, turning it with his right hand. This woman was the first person to cause them a great deal of trouble since the disaster.
Based on this alone, he had already sentenced Qin Hongling to death in his mind.
“I never cause trouble, but I’m not afraid of trouble either. Since you’ve provoked us, you’re not going to get away with this.”
Cultured people never use profanity when arguing.
"Hey, I remember you were the leader, kid. You're so arrogant, but if you're so arrogant, why are you in a wheelchair? Get up and kill me!"
Qin Hongling has never been a kind person.
"Hey, stop arguing."
"Yes, we're all survivors, let's not hurt each other's feelings."
"With that kind of strength, why don't you go out and kill zombies!"
...
Several peacemakers around, unaware of the situation, kept trying to persuade him.
Han Shuo and the others ignored them completely and continued to hurl insults at Qin Hongling.
However, no one wanted to violate the regulations of the underground research institute, so they have been hesitant to take action.
A minute later, a group of people suddenly arrived.
"What's going on? It's a mess."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Shuo saw a tall woman with a model's figure walk in from outside the crowd.
Behind the woman were several armed soldiers.
"The guard?"
Han Shuo thought to himself that he did not know this person and had never seen him before.
"Huh? What are you doing here, Xiao Zhao?" The woman actually recognized Xiao Zhao.
"Ah, Sister Yu Qing, what brings you here?"
Xiao Zhao stopped arguing with Qin Hongling and quickly responded politely, then briefly explained the situation to her.
Yu Qing is a genetically evolved Level 2 human and also the captain of a guard team.
After she understood the situation, she frowned and said.
"Alright, whatever your past grudges may be, whether you want to fight or kill, it's not allowed here!"
Captain Yu Qing looks to be under 40 years old. Although she is quite good-looking, she is extremely cold.
"Alright, everyone disperse now. Anyone who causes trouble again, I'll kill them."
After saying that, she pulled out a pistol.
This statement was not an exaggeration. Han Shuo knew that in the underground research institute, when the guard team was not on missions, they were responsible for maintaining order.
The captain does have the right to kill, but of course he can't kill indiscriminately, otherwise it will cause dissatisfaction among those in power.
Now that Captain Yu Qing has arrived, Han Shuo knows that he has no choice but to give up today. He couldn't kill Qin Hongling in the underground research institute anyway, as the surveillance system here is extremely comprehensive. It can monitor not only every room and every corner, but it can also detect almost everyone's activity range.
If someone is murdered, those in power can still find out by following a series of clues.
This kind of thing is probably very common outside now, and everyone is even aware of it.
But here, it is still absolutely forbidden to happen.
Imagine you see the person in the room next to yours commit murder. Would you still want them to continue living there like you?
Of course not.
The reason is simple: it would cause panic among all the survivors.
Therefore, once discovered, there is only one consequence for intentional homicide: being executed directly by those in power.
Today, the two sides met again, but it was nothing more than exchanging words and venting their anger.
Qin Hongling glared at the group of people, then turned and left without saying a word.
Although she had only been here for a very short time, she knew perfectly well who she could mess with and who she couldn't.
To Han Shuo's surprise, she walked directly into the building where the free men lived.
Could it be that she also chose to become a free agent?
Living in the same building as your enemy is not good news.
Who knows if Qin Hongling might go crazy one day, disregard the rules here, and risk her life to sneak into the three people's room.
Han Shuo and his group are temporarily staying in the underground research institute, isn't it for comfort and safety?
If sleeping is the same as being outside, requiring shifts to guard, it might be okay for a short time, but it would be very uncomfortable if it continued for a long time.
"It looks like we'll have to find a new place to live."
Han Shuo thought to himself, and then the four of them went straight back to Xiao Zhao's place.
"Damn it, that bitch is infuriating me today. Even if she were right in front of me, I couldn't kill her."
The fat man sat in the chair, grumbling angrily.
"Fatty, it's not worth getting angry over her. Don't be impulsive. Your life is much more precious than hers."
When Xiao Zhao encountered Qin Hongling today, he was just as angry as the fat man, but after returning, he felt much more at ease.
Because he knew he would have a chance for revenge.
Xiao Zhao, fearing that the fat man would act impulsively, kept trying to persuade him from the side.
"Alright, Fatty, calm down. It's a good thing you saw Qin Hongling today; it's better than her hiding in the shadows all this time."
It's best if we both know the enemy's strengths and weaknesses. If we clash head-on, who can kill whom depends on our respective abilities.
"But my enemy is right in front of me, and I can't do anything about it. This feeling is just too frustrating," the fat man complained with a gloomy face.
"It's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. Alright, you should restrain your impulsive nature."
Han Shuo ignored the fat man and gave Xiao Zhao a determined look.
"Don't worry, Xiao Zhao. Qin Hongling is our common enemy, and we will definitely avenge her. However, it's too sensitive in the underground research institute, so we can't act rashly in the short term."
"Yes, Brother Han, I know. Don't worry, I won't act impulsively."
"Well, I trust you quite a bit."
Han Shuo responded with a smile, and then added a couple more instructions.
"Fatty, keep an eye on Qin Hongling's whereabouts lately. She's a free agent, just like us. If you find out she's planning to go out, let me know immediately."
"Shurou, try not to go out alone on weekdays. Have Fatty or Xiao Zhao accompany you."
"good."
"Okay, okay."
Seeing that all three had agreed, Han Shuo breathed a sigh of relief. He was most afraid that someone would act impulsively and fall into Qin Hongling's trap.
After a few brief encounters, he knew that Qin Hongling was definitely not a woman who could only solve problems with brute force.
This woman does think before she acts.
The four discussed the matter for a while longer, and their anger gradually subsided.
Han Shuo knew that he couldn't live in hatred forever. Since he couldn't resolve it now, he would bury this hatred deep in his heart.
As time goes by, the perfect answer will naturally emerge.
He believed that when the opportunity came, he would seize it firmly and win the battle between the two sides.
This was a promise Han Shuo made to Xiao Zhao and the other two, and he also had confidence in it.
