Chapter 247: Banker
The wall of the Kyoto base is nearly six meters high, and the gate is a heavy metal door, just like the city gate of old times, with a strong retro and tough atmosphere. There is a relatively small door on each side, one for entry and one for exit.
Various greenhouses outside the city are arranged in an orderly manner, forming a fixed village style.
There weren't many people queuing at the entrance, and the guards were unarmed, but their faces showed that they were not to be messed with.
Knowing that they were new, they had to get off the car for inspection after handing over their supplies.
A separate room where the psychic uses his abilities to the fullest and his level will be displayed directly.
"Don't try your best," Lu Weiyi quietly reminded everyone.
Everyone who entered basically maintained their level B. Then Lu Xi entered. He did not show any special abilities, but he displayed the jade space.
Lu Weiyi's grip tightened, Zhuang Mingxu patted his hands and walked in pushing the wheelchair.
It’s not a large space, but the area estimation is completely accurate.
As he came out, Lu Weiyi carried Zhuang Aiyi in.
In the dark room, there was only a red light in front of me.
As soon as "Little Daddy" Zhuang Aiyi came in, he hugged Lu Weiyi's neck tightly.
"Please aim at the instrument and release your supernatural power," an electronic voice said, and an instrument of unknown purpose appeared in front of them. It should be for the assessment level.
Lu Weiyi carefully covered the space with his supernatural powers, and comforted Zhuang Aiyi with one hand.
After a moment, an electronic voice said, "No superpowers."
After the two people came out, Lu Weiyi looked at the identification display screen next to him. It clearly stated that they were two ordinary people, with no special abilities and no storage space.
After entering the base, ordinary people need to stay for two hours to be tested for infection with the zombie virus.
Zhuang Mingxu arranged Ning Yuan to go to the Zhuang family to report the news.
When they came out, the old steward of the Zhuang family, Zhou Bo, was already waiting at the entrance with his men.
"The eldest young master" Zhou Bo is the one who watched Zhuang Mingxu grow up, and they have always had a good relationship. When he saw Zhuang Mingxu's appearance, he was stunned for a moment, with tears in his eyes, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back, the old man is always thinking about you."
"Uncle Zhou" Zhuang Mingxu held his hand.
"Young Master Lu" Zhou Bo greeted Lu Weiyi, and Lu Weiyi nodded.
"Let's go home," Zhou Bo said excitedly, and he personally went to push Zhuang Mingxu.
**
The inside and outside of the Kyoto base are completely two different worlds.
There are no broken walls, zombies or mutated plants and animals here. The streets are filled with flashing lights and the hustle and bustle of hawking can be heard everywhere.
Zhuang Mingxu looked out the window, as if he had entered a dream. When he woke up, there were no zombies and no doomsday.
Zhuang Aiyi kept looking around, asking about things on the roadside from time to time, looking like he found everything curious.
Lu Weiyi was calm, he had lived here for several years and even knew the locations of some famous shops along the street, what's more, he knew the distribution of the base's forces clearly.
The co-pilot Zhou Bo turned around and kept telling Zhuang Mingxu what happened to the Zhuang family after the apocalypse. Lu Weiyi listened and thought it was nothing more than how difficult it was for his family and how much they missed and worried about him.
If the feelings were really that strong, no one would go looking for it.
You can also allow illegitimate children to come in.
Lu Weiyi sneered and turned his head to the window.
"Uncle Zhou, my leg is injured. Can my family contact a doctor? I want to have surgery tonight." Zhuang Mingxu did not expose his words, nor did he respond.
"I'll go back and tell the old man," said Zhou Bo.
After half an hour of hustle and bustle, the surroundings became quiet and we entered the heavily guarded villa area.
Ten minutes later, the vehicle stopped at a detached villa. Zhou Bo got out of the car first, took out the wheelchair, and after placing Zhuang Mingxu on it, he introduced, "This area is where our people live. This building belongs to the eldest branch's family, and the one next door is the third branch's family. The third branch's side is home to his forces, and these are all the forces of our eldest branch."
"Everyone?" Zhuang Mingxu took a quick look and found that there were no more than seven villas in this row.
"No, it's mainly the captain's family and the leadership. The people below have special accommodations outside," Zhou Bo explained. "How about placing the companions you brought back in the building at the farthest end?"
Zhuang Mingxu took a look and nodded.
He looked at Lu Weiyi, who took the initiative to say, "I'll take them there, you..."
"Go ahead, I'm fine here," said Zhuang Mingxu.
"..." Lu Weiyi looked at him, and seeing that he was not forcing him, he nodded, "I'll come to see you in an hour."
"good"
Lu Weiyi left with several cars behind him.
The surrounding villas have the same layout and similar area. The people sent by Zhou Bo told the group about the living conditions of several surrounding families one by one, in order to avoid conflicts due to lack of understanding.
The dark villa was empty, like a haunted house, and looked miserable under the bright lights around it.
"This entire villa is still empty. You can live here as you please. You need to ask the housekeeper for applications for the facilities. You can always contact me if you need anything. I live next door." The guide named Xiao Liu was a child who looked like he was not yet an adult. He spoke smoothly and looked smart.
He said he had applied to the housekeeper, and the housekeeper knew that Zhuang Mingxu had brought people back, so if he had really cared, he should have arranged everything. Lu Weiyi guessed that this action was intended to test their supplies.
In today's world, materials are directly linked to strength.
"Who manages the supplies?" Lu Weiyi asked.
"It's the second master of the third house," that is, Zhuang Mingxu's second uncle and Zhuang Mingze's biological father.
Lu Weiyi burst out laughing, looking at Xiao Liu with a half-smile, "The first wife of the banker has not used it to this extent? Even some supplies have to be taken from the third wife?"
Xiao Liu lowered his head and said nothing.
"They are really useless," Lu Weiyi concluded, "Take them to the parking lot and find a cook. Those who can cook children's food will be given priority."
"Okay," Xiao Liu nodded, and Xu Sa took Xiao Liu's arm to find the villa parking area.
When they came back, the villa was brightly lit and looked no different from the surrounding areas.
Xu Yi was released and sat on the sofa with a look of despair.
Everyone around was collapsed, even Zhuang Aiyi was lying down like an adult, imitating Ge You.
"It's just a shabby parking lot. We have to drive around in a circle and pay crystal cores. It's too much." Xu Sa, Gu Qingyue and Gu Qingji walked in and sat at the door. "I'll ask him to find someone to cook first."
"Come on, Lu Xiaoyi, tell everyone about the situation of this banker. He gives a show of power as soon as he enters the door. What's going on?" Xu Sa asked.
"The banker," Lu Weiyi curled his lips and was not interested in talking about it. "They are disgusting inside, they are people in disguise, just don't be fooled. These people are either in politics or in the military, you all should be careful, don't be tricked by them."
"They don't accept you," Li Zhuang said bluntly.
"The entire future of the Zhuang family rests on Zhuang Mingxu, and I ruined it. Do you expect them to treat me as a guest of honor?" After Lu Weiyi finished speaking, he felt that his words seemed to be quite boastful, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Then you won't be in danger, right?" Xu Sa knew best how secretive these big families were.
Lu Weiyi shook his head. In his previous life, Zhuang Mingxu was powerful and no one dared to look at him with disdain. Now that he has his own strength, even without Zhuang Mingxu's protection, no one dares to say anything. Who knows, given the current situation, the Zhuang family may even try to please him more.
Lu Weiyi found it funny when he thought of that scene.
After a few people talked for a while, Xiao Liu brought a middle-aged woman in and said she was the new cook, named Liu Ma.
Lu Weiyi stared at the person for a long time and confirmed that this was Zhou Bo's daughter-in-law. She was also a cook for their team in her previous life. At that time, Zhou Bo was Zhuang Mingxu's man. Now, no one knew who this Zhou Bo belonged to.
It really is all-round surveillance.
Lu Weiyi ignored her and happily asked her to cook a large table of dishes.
The group finally had a satisfying meal.
After dinner, Lu Weiyi estimated the time to pick up Zhuang Mingxu. Before leaving, he saw Xu Yi and gave the others a hint.
There is a street lamp every ten meters in the villa area, which is just enough to see the road clearly.
The road surface has been repaired and there is no sign of damage.
Noisy sounds can be heard in every villa, a lively and bustling scene, except... the banker.
The Zhuang family's house was as brightly lit as before the end of the world. There were more lights lit in the yard than in other houses, illuminating the entire yard more clearly.
It must be because the house is small and people are not at home cooking. The servants push a two-story dining cart with dishes turned upside down into the yard, and the scene is just as grand as it was before.
When he saw Lu Weiyi coming in, he opened his mouth to stop him, but found that it was more natural for him to leave than for himself, so he immediately fell silent.
Zhuang Mingxu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with old man Zhuang next to him, his uncle Zhuang Chengye and father Zhuang Chengli sitting opposite him, and his cousin Zhuang Mingwen and cousin Zhuang Mingwu sitting on both sides.
Sitting at the very corner was a young boy, who was none other than Zhuang Mingxu's illegitimate brother, Xia Mingzhi.
What a happy family of three generations living together, if you don’t look at Zhuang Mingxu’s silent face.
For the first time, Lu Weiyi discovered that he also had moments of vulnerability and loneliness.
Lu Weiyi's entry broke the silence. Zhuang Mingxu looked over and his slight fragility suddenly disappeared. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he was still the man with a straight back.
Lu Weiyi walked straight to Zhuang Mingxu, held his hand, and asked, "When will the surgery be performed?"
"..."Zhuang Mingxu paused and said, "I've contacted them and will do a check-up after dinner."
"Ahem." Mr. Zhuang cleared his throat. He didn't attract Lu Weiyi's attention, but he looked at the aunt who delivered the meal.
Lu Weiyi nodded, "Do you want to go back?"
"No, I'll go there directly after dinner," Zhuang Mingxu replied.
"Oh," Lu Weiyi responded, sat on the sofa next to Zhuang Mingxu, took out a mobile phone from his pocket, and clicked on the game interface.
A slow and familiar music sounded, and the people in the living room looked at each other. Zhuang Mingxu lowered his eyes and smiled silently.
In the restaurant, Zhuang Chengyan, her son and daughter, as well as Zhuang Chengli's new "wife" Xia Xiaorong, were setting the table with the servants.
"Big brother, are you playing Plants vs. Zombies?" a little girl's voice rang out.
Lu Weiyi looked at the phone interface carefully, tapping on it from time to time.
"Didn't you hear people talking to you? Are you deaf?" Xia Mingzhi, who was sitting next to him, spoke unhappily with the aggressiveness typical of a young man.
