Chapter 84 Chapter 84 Zombies
the next day
After having breakfast at home, He Junxia went to the box early to wait. He arrived half an hour earlier than the agreed time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, Minister Pang rushed to the box. When he saw her, he excitedly said, "Xiao Xie, it really is you!"
——In order to be recognized easily during this meeting, He Junxia deliberately returned to his original short hair and shaved off his beard.
After all the operations, he looked no different from before he disappeared, except for a scar on his left cheek that had not yet completely faded.
This was the wound He Junxia sustained when she was attacked by a level 3 mutant fish while fishing in Dongshan Park half a month ago.
Minister Pang asked with concern, "Hey, Xiao Xie, what's wrong with your face?"
"You're the idiot of our weapons department. If those aunts, grandma, and young girls saw you, they'd be heartbroken."
He Junxia climbed up the pole and said sadly, "Auntie Pang, please stop teasing me. There are so many handsome guys in the department later. How can they still remember me?"
Minister Pang also smiled: "No matter who I forget, I will never forget you. You are a great contributor to our department."
She called out, "Xiao Xie, have you had breakfast? Come and try our morning tea. The steamed chicken feet and pork meatballs are both excellent. They're made with meat from exotic animals raised at the base."
He Junxia smiled and said, "That's all thanks to Aunt Pang. I've never had morning tea in my life."
The precious meat of exotic animals combined with the skills of top chefs make dishes that are beyond compare.
The pork meatballs are tender and juicy, with a refreshing and chewy texture. The steamed chicken feet are fluffy on the outside, soft and glutinous on the inside, and rich in the aroma of fermented black beans, falling off the bone in your mouth. There's also red rice rice noodle rolls, barbecued pork buns, and shrimp dumplings...
Each sip has a different ultimate taste, and it is made from exotic animals and plants, rich in energy and has a strong sense of fullness.
As He Junxia ate, she seemed to be completely immersed in the food, enjoying it so much that even Minister Pang, who was not hungry, ate a few more bites.
She had already had breakfast.
It is naturally impossible to come to a meeting in this situation on an empty stomach.
Minister Pang has learned from Zhang Hongmeng the reason for the boy's disappearance and what happened after his disappearance, but he still has many questions in his mind.
For example, how he upgraded his superpowers to level 5, the child's true identity, and why they had to borrow other people's identities when entering the base.
Never underestimate the power of the government machinery. When Minister Pang learned that Xie Tengda was still alive, he immediately sent people to investigate his actions after entering the base.
——At that moment, in addition to joy, there were more emotions of vigilance and suspicion.
The weapons manufacturing department is not an ordinary department. It is related to the safety of millions of people in the entire base. She dare not give her trust to someone who has been missing for several months.
Unexpectedly, Xie Tengda brought the child from nowhere and used someone else's identity to sneak into the base. He has been behaving well and abiding by the law ever since.
No one could tell that he was a mutant, or even a level five mutant at that. He would even bargain with a small vendor for 10 minutes for a contribution point, living more like an ordinary person than the ordinary people in the base.
Minister Pang was very curious about what had happened during that period that had turned a simple and high-spirited boy into what he is now and even made him learn verbal confrontation.
But it certainly wasn't a good time.
Minister Pang looked at the young man beside him who was eating hard. He was not rude but ate very quickly, as if he had not had a good meal for a long time.
Of course, Minister Pang was not stupid enough to ask directly, as that would be very hurtful, and he might not get the correct answer.
Moreover, Xie Tengda is now a level 5 mutant. Although she is not afraid of offending him, she is unwilling to make an enemy of him.
Besides, she wanted to bring this rare talent back to her own family.
There's no need to ask too much about some things. It's not like there are no traitors sent by other forces in the weapons manufacturing department.
Facing foreign enemies, no matter what faction he belongs to, as long as he does not belong to the zombie and monster faction, he has to work hard in the weapons department.
As he thought about it, Minister Pang looked at He Junxia with more kindness and gentleness in his eyes.
This is a gold nugget that has been delivered to their doorstep. Their weapons department will finally have a level 5 mutant who can show his face.
Let's see if those people still dare to accuse weapons of not using up a lot of resources and doing nothing.
Eat his big head ghost.
You don’t know the hardships of the logistics department unless you work.
Do you really think it is easy to train a person with a superpower level of five who can independently create cold weapons according to individual needs?
Minister Pang said lovingly, "Xiao Xie, are you full? If not, I'll ask the waiter to bring a few more dishes."
He Junxia put down the bowl that had even the soup eaten clean, blushed with embarrassment, and quickly whispered, "I'm full, I'm full."
Minister Pang smiled knowingly, he is still a child after all.
But even though she didn't ask, He Junxia had to tell her, so she briefly recounted the causes and consequences of her disappearance and her life outside.
In addition, he also revealed Xie Chaoyang's identity and origin, including the fact that Xie Chaoyang was a level 2 wind-type mutant, indirectly explaining why he returned to the base under an assumed name.
A level 2 mutant who is less than 10 years old!
Minister Pang was overjoyed. He didn't expect there was a buy one get one free deal. No, he got two precious treasures for free.
She suppressed the joy in her heart, but frowned on her face: "These beasts don't even let the children go."
"Xiao Xie, don't worry, this kind of bad situation will never happen in our Yunjiang base."
Perhaps thinking of the several senior officials at the base who had appeared on the list of participants in the human experiments, Minister Pang added, "Those who previously participated in the human experiments have been dismissed and sentenced. As long as I'm here, I will definitely not let those gutter bugs harm you."
He Junxia sniffed with emotion: "Thank you, Aunt Pang."
The two continued chatting, and He Junxia talked about the reason why he was willing to reveal his identity, and subtly shifted the topic to the clearing operation a few days ago.
I see.
Another doubt was answered, and Minister Pang looked at Xie Tengda with a little more appreciation.
How can we not like a young man who cares about the base and the country and is willing to expose himself to danger?
But thinking about the clearing operation that was completely fooled by the zombie king, Minister Pang felt uncomfortable again, and a hint of strangeness appeared on his face.
He Junxia was puzzled and nervous: "Auntie Pang, are you feeling unwell?"
Minister Pang came back to his senses, calmed down his emotions, and asked, "When you and Chaoyang lived outside, did you encounter any other powerful mutant creatures or zombies?"
Up to now, the base has not obtained a positive photo of the zombie king. It is hard to guard against it when it mixes in with the zombie group.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to take away the high-level crystal core in the Spider King's body.
He Junxia thought for a moment and said, "I've seen a Spider King in a shopping mall. It's the one that was killed during the crackdown. I've also seen a powerful mutant ginkgo tree in Dongshan Park."
"But I only saw it from a distance and didn't dare to get close."
He Junxia looked curious and asked, "Hasn't the base found the Rat King yet?"
Speaking of the Rat King, Minister Pang felt uneasy again.
Originally, the mopping-up troops had trapped the Rat King, but who knew that the Zombie King suddenly jumped out to help, allowing the already seriously injured Rat King to escape successfully.
Minister Pang was certain that the mutant rat king could not escape the clutches of the zombie king.
The three bases worked so hard for so long, but in the end they made wedding dresses for a zombie.
I don’t know how powerful the zombie king will become after absorbing two sixth-level crystal cores.
They created a terrible monster with their own hands.
However, such important news, which would seriously affect the credibility of the base, public cohesion and the mentality of residents, naturally could not be told to a child.
It would be disastrous if it got out.
Minister Pang made up an excuse to get away with it, but she didn't know that He Junxia had already guessed it from her reaction.
The zombie king hiding behind the scenes is definitely the one who benefits.
He Junxia's heart was filled with murderous intent.
A zombie king with intelligence that is no less than that of humans and world-class combat power is a hurdle that the humans in City A must overcome.
If Xie Qingli wants to live safely and happily in the base, she must get rid of it.
Of course, it was a bit early to think about this now. Even if he encountered the Zombie King, He Junxia would only be able to slide and deliver the food.
We must become stronger as soon as possible.
He Junxia once again felt a sense of urgency in his heart - completing the task did not mean getting full marks, it was at most a passing level.
In order to break through the siege of the Space-Time Administration Bureau with 100,000 trainee taskers and become a formal tasker, the praise of the wishers is also essential.
After He Junxia and Minister Pang finished their meal, they agreed that he would report to the Weapons Department the next day and Xie Chaoyang would report to the Psychic Training School. Then they each left with satisfaction.
When Xie Chaoyang suddenly received a reminder to go to school, he felt like the sky was falling.
He hates school!
The child said aggrievedly: "Brother, I don't want to go to school. I want to stay with you and grandma forever."
Xie Qingli glared at He Junxia. He Junxia touched her nose, coughed lightly, and said, "You don't have to call me grandma now. You can call me mom or auntie."
"From now on, we'll use our own names again, and you don't have to call me dad anymore."
Xie Chaoyang raised his head in surprise. After meeting Xie Qingli's expectant eyes, he pursed his lips and whispered, "Xie Mom."
Xie Qingli immediately responded: "Hey."
She had already learned the child's background from her son, and with a squinting look in her eyes, she held the shy child in her arms. "To celebrate the birth of another son, let's go out for a big dinner today. Your brother will treat!"
"Um!"
Xie Chaoyang nodded heavily.
He Junxia, who was forced to treat everyone: ...
After having two delicious meals and drinks, it was finally my turn.
"Okay, as you command."
The family went downstairs happily and left. In stark contrast, a cat and a chicken looked hesitantly at the tall city wall not far away.
The big black rooster hung its head and looked at the big orange cat.
Or forget it, human meal tickets are not that essential.
It was afraid that once it went in, it would become someone else's meal ticket.
The orange cat was also a little weak, but still puffed out his chest proudly: "Coward, watch me."
