Chapter 2015: Mayor's Daughter
"Why didn't you say anything?" Lu Weiyi looked at the two groups of people who had already started fighting in the yard, and glanced at Zhao Ji.
"I...I forgot," Zhao Ji said in a low voice with his head down.
"Who else?" Lu Weiyi was well aware of the situation of the psychics on his side. He simply released his mental power to prepare for support and did not take action in advance.
"She is in charge of the girls' dormitory. Besides her, there are several others, all of whom are lovers of the members of the hunting team. However, they were all abducted. Some of them were unwilling, but they could not resist," Zhao Ji replied.
Lu Weiyi didn't say anything and continued to observe the outside. The other side had three B-level psychics, and the strongest one was the metal-type psychic Jiang He. His metal-type ability could be converted very quickly, and he could attack and defend at the same time without being at a disadvantage. Antonio was still reserved at the beginning, but then he started to go all out.
"Tell me about Jiang He's situation," Lu Weiyi said.
"I don't know much about it. He was not the captain here originally. The captain was the previous fire-type mutant who came here last month. I heard that he was from Anjiang base, but he didn't seem to have a good relationship with the people who came here two days ago," said Zhao Ji.
"How many people are coming from the Dragon Tiger Team?"
"Two hundred, it seems like there are more than twenty B-level psychics." Zhao Ji said this with a hint of envy on his face.
Ten percent. If this probability applies to all bases, then they should hurry up and improve it.
While Lu Weiyi was daydreaming, the people outside had already finished.
Lu Weiyi probed the small green branch into the ground, and soon found a basement underneath. It seemed that these were the only places where people stored their supplies.
After looking inside, he found that in addition to some daily necessities, there were also things like guns and gasoline. Lu Weiyi unceremoniously put them into his own space as a reward.
All the men and women upstairs were called down, nearly two hundred people, many of whom had various injuries on their bodies. Some of them had terrified eyes, some were numb, and a few found that their relatives were still alive and were crying.
Ning Yuan was talking to them as if he was giving a speech, and the main point was just one: you are saved, run for your lives quickly.
"There are quite a lot of supplies. It looks like they have robbed a lot of people." Li Zhuang had already walked around, smoking a cigarette, and asked, "Shall we leave now?"
"Planning to go" does not guarantee unexpected situations, such as...
"Take us with you. They have some people going to look for supplies. If you leave, they will definitely take it out on us when they come back."
"Yeah, even if we have supplies, we still won't be able to defend it when they come back. It's totally useless."
"Since you saved us, you should be responsible for us. There are so many zombies outside, how can we survive?"
…
The words became more and more extreme, as if it would be their fault if they did not take responsibility after saving people. Li Zhuang curled his lips and looked at the scene not far away.
"Fuck, these people are simply amazing." Xu Sa's face darkened when he heard the last sentence. He pushed away Ning Yuan's long-winded explanation. A crackling flash of lightning exploded in front of everyone's eyes, and the crowd immediately quieted down.
"There are eight cars and two buses over there. If you squeeze in, it will be enough for all of you to leave. There are supplies in that room. If you want to leave, drive away with the supplies now. We can protect you until you leave. If you all want to stay here, we won't accompany you. You just continue to wait for the psychics who are out to come back," Xu Sa said coldly.
After that, the people in the crowd looked at each other, and a few of them quickly ran towards the cars, occupying a good car. Some people even started arguing over the cars.
"Can we follow you in our car?" Some people still refused to give up.
"We are walking through the city center. There are countless zombies around. Can you survive?" Xu Sa asked back, "Don't expect anyone to save you on the road. If you are not afraid, just follow us."
"Aren't you going to Anjiang Base?" A girl who looked only eight or nine years old asked calmly. Next to her stood a girl who was about eighteen or nineteen. Compared to the other girls who were clean, the two of them looked dirty.
"No," said Xu Sa.
"Can you escort us back to Anjiang base? You can... take half of the supplies inside," the girl continued.
"Little sister, they are relying on the people from Anjiang base. I don't suggest you go back, otherwise you will be recognized..." Seeing that it was a child, Xu Sa softened his tone.
"My father is the commander of the Anjiang base. As long as you send us back, I promise that my father will take care of all the teams behind them," said the little girl.
"Yes, my father is the commander of the base," the older girl also said.
Xu Sa glanced at the people around him, and Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Since your father is the commander of the base, why are you two here?"
"We were kidnapped on purpose," said the little girl. "She wanted to marry my father, but I didn't agree, so she secretly kidnapped and sold us sisters."
This matter is a bit involved. If they agree, they will have to leave all the other superpowers in the future to get rid of them. This will give them a better guarantee for the trip to Anjiang Base. But what if this girl is lying...
For a moment, several people looked at Lu Weiyi at the same time, waiting for him to make a decision.
"What evidence do you have to prove that you are not lying?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"If you take us over there and take a look, won't it prove it?" The older girl sounded a bit naive and didn't know how to respond to this.
But the little girl said, "My father was the mayor of Anjiang City before the end of the world. His name was Lin Minghong. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him about it."
"Go ask Zhuang Mingxu," Lu Weiyi said to Bai Miao who was chewing potato chips and watching the fun.
They all walked around the warehouse and came out with some of their favorite food in their hands.
Bai Miao trotted out. Antonio had already driven the car to the door. A few minutes later, Bai Miao pushed Zhuang Mingxu in.
Lu Weiyi frowned and walked over, pulling up the scarf around his neck, "Why did you come down?" The weather was really unfriendly to ordinary people like them, and Lu Weiyi almost didn't need them to stay in the carriage.
"I heard about it and came to see. I happen to know Lin Minghong. Who is Lin Minghong's daughter?" Zhuang Mingxu asked.
Lu Weiyi pointed at the two girls, and they took a few steps forward.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at her for a while, but he didn't even recognize her face. "How did your mother die?"
"He died of illness," said the little girl.
"My mother..." The older girl hesitated, glanced at her younger sister, and walked towards Zhuang Mingxu. No one else stopped her, but the younger girl had a look of confusion on her face.
When she got close to me, she whispered, "My mother died of complications during childbirth. My father wanted to save the adult, but my mother disagreed. In the end, she used her own life to save my sister. My sister doesn't know about this. Can you please not tell her?"
"Yeah," Zhuang Mingxu nodded and looked at Lu Weiyi, "It is indeed Lin Minghong's daughter. When his youngest daughter was born, I happened to go to Anjiang City Hospital to visit my comrades and encountered a dispute, so I asked about it."
"Then shall we send them back?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"Let's go now and send it over directly. Let them handle the rest themselves." It is not cost-effective to waste energy helping others to eliminate dissidents. Zhuang Mingxu does not want the team to do such a thing.
Seeing that Lu Weiyi did not refute, Ning Yuan looked at everyone and said, "We will set off in an hour. Those who can keep up will keep up, and those who can't will stay behind."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly became chaotic, some fighting for cars and some for supplies. Several people in the team wanted to maintain order, but they were really afraid of these people whose values were already problematic. In the end, they all stood aside silently and watched them argue with each other, and even discussed in a low voice about who was stronger.
An hour later, the group started the car on time. All the cars in the yard were crowded with people, and the picked materials were thrown everywhere on the ground. Fortunately, everyone was on the car.
The An Giang base is located in the suburbs of the former An Giang City, about six hours’ drive away. Along the way, Lu Weiyi's two cars led the way in front, with a row of cars following behind. Any zombies were dealt with by them, and there were no mutant animals, so there was not much danger along the way.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the group arrived at Anjiang Base.
More than a dozen cars parked at the gate of the Anjiang City base, immediately attracting the curious gazes of the late-returning team. In order to prevent the news from leaking out, no one was allowed to get off the car before the two girls met their father, so as to prevent the news from leaking out and implicating them.
Ning Yuan brought Lin Ying, who was younger and obviously smarter, into the base.
The group waited for more than half an hour, and the gate of the base opened. Ning Yuan and a man in his fifties walked in, followed by a dozen people.
"Uncle Zhong," the older girl Lin Jiao shouted excitedly when she saw the person coming.
The man who called Uncle Zhong "Jiaojiao" was also very happy. He looked the girl up and down as she walked towards him and said, "Child, after you disappeared, your father has been sending people to look for you. You have suffered, and your father already knows about it, and he will seek justice for you."
"Yeah," Lin Jiao nodded.
"This is your savior." Uncle Zhong walked a few steps towards the leading truck. Xu Sa had to get off the car. "Hello, my name is Chen Guozhong. Minghong just found out about his daughter's matter. I'm trying to arrange the following matters. I really don't have time, so I came here to invite you all to the base and thank you for saving the children."
"You're welcome. We just met you. We won't go back and we have to hurry on our way," said Xu Sa.
"It's already late today. Anyway, it won't be too late to stay for one night and leave tomorrow morning. Also, I heard from Yingying that Mr. Zhuang is here too, so you must be going back to Kyoto. There are also people from the east in the base. I heard that some places there are severely damaged. I can tell you in detail about the situation on the road and those places where powerful zombies are distributed, so as to avoid you taking a detour on the road." Chen Guozhong's words were indeed realistic and to the point.
Xu Sa was just about to ask Lu Weiyi what he thought when he saw Liu Rui, the co-pilot, say to them, "Yes...yes."
