In his panic, Sun Shichao blurted out, "If you let me go, I'll definitely tell you!"
Du Xu laughed, "Sun Shichao, Sun Shichao, how stupid are you? Do you think there's any point in you spouting this nonsense now?"
Sun Shichao said, "Yes! Not only that, I also know why Zhou Liang and Pu Weichao disappeared!"
I asked, "Then tell me, why did they disappear?"
Sun Shichao said, "Let me go! I'll definitely tell you!"
I squinted and pondered whether Sun Shichao's words were true or false.
Seeing my expression, Du Xu said, "Hey, hey, hey, you still believe him? This idiot just said everything, he's a complete brainless guy, and now he's spouting this nonsense to you, do you really think you can believe him?"
Sun Shichao looked at me and said, "What I said is true!"
I said, "But it's hard for me to believe what you're saying."
Sun Shichao swallowed hard and said, "I can tell you first why Zhou Liang and Pu Weichao disappeared!"
"you say."
Sun Shichao said, "Someone saw that they were both bitten by zombies, and then the two left here to find an antidote for zombies!"
The moment I heard those words, my lips twitched.
Even if you're going to make up a reason, you should at least come up with something plausible. I'm truly amazed that they could come up with something as absurd as a zombie cure.
It seems that Sun Shichao was indeed desperate and started talking nonsense.
I shook my head, turned around, and said, "He gave it to you."
"No, no, no, Lu Xiaonan, I'm telling the truth!"
Du Xu shook his head and said, "You really are stupid. I don't know how you've survived until now. It's a miracle."
After saying that, Du Xu pointed his gun at Sun Shichao and fired a shot.
Gunshots rang out in the basement, making my ears ring.
Sun Shichao's disfigured face had multiple bloody holes, and his body slumped on the stool, completely dead.
I turned and left the basement.
Du Xu followed behind me and said, "What do you think this guy is thinking? He had so many opportunities just now, why didn't he threaten you? Does he really believe you can keep your promise?"
I shook my head: "Maybe he really is stupid."
Du Xu chuckled, "I really don't know how he came up with the idea of a zombie cure. I'm impressed."
I glanced at him but didn't say anything.
If a zombie cure existed, the world wouldn't be like this. And given the current situation, no one can actually develop a zombie cure.
I do know about this.
Sun Shichao is dead, and the matter is over.
We gathered together as a group.
Du Xu said, "Sun Shichao has been dealt with, which proves that our cooperation has been quite good. Let's continue. I'll be handing over some of my men to you from now on."
I frowned and asked doubtfully, "Now that Sun Shichao is dead, and you have no worries, why do you still need to do this?"
Du Xu said, "I dare not take the risk. Sun Shichao is dead, but the municipal government is still there. I don't think they will give up Zhou Liang's plan. When they find out that Sun Shichao is dead, they will definitely send someone else. Wouldn't that cause more trouble? So let's stick to the original plan. I will go to Jiajiang to find you after I have completely resolved things here. Until then, I will leave my people to you."
I nodded: "Okay, then we'll do it your way. But before I leave, I'd like to go to the city government to verify whether what Sun Shichao said is correct."
Du Xu was surprised and advised, "No, I advise you not to do this. You don't know anything about the situation at the municipal government. What would you do there? Besides, they have a lot of people and weapons, and they might even have a regular army. What will you do then?!"
I opened my mouth but didn't know what to say. Be careful?
"Besides, what Sun Shichao said should be true, so what else do you want to verify?"
The others standing nearby couldn't understand what we were saying, since they hadn't been involved in the interrogation.
Fei Lichao looked indifferent, as if he was waiting for my answer.
I said, "But I still don't believe that Zhou Liang and Pu Weichao could have disappeared!"
Du Xu frowned. "So you really have to go?"
I nodded.
Du Xu thought for a moment and said, "If you really want to go there, that's fine too, but you don't need to go to the city government. I know a place that's their base. I've been there once before. That base is used specifically to contact us. If we have any trouble, we can go directly to the base to find them."
“Then let’s go to this outpost,” I said.
Du Xu said, "Don't rush. Only two people can go to the stronghold at most, so only you and I can go. The rest of you can stay here and wait for us."
Upon hearing this, Fei Lichao immediately said, "No way! I have to come along."
Du Xu said, "You can come along, just don't expose yourself."
Fei Lichao nodded and said nothing more.
I know he followed me for my safety.
Since I had already decided to go, I said to Sister Jing, "Sister Jing, you and Sun Zichen go and meet up with Zhang Zhihao first. I estimate I'll be back soon."
"Be careful," Sister Jing cautioned.
"I will."
...
Next, Du Xu and I set off and drove to the base.
Fei Lichao was also in the car, but just as they were about to approach the stronghold, Du Xu got him out of the car and told him to wait in the shadows nearby.
