It was very late at night.
I stood on the rooftop of one of the buildings in Jiangbei Residential Area, glanced at my watch, and saw it was just past midnight.
I was exposed to the cold wind, unable to fall asleep.
I wonder how Lu Yun is doing now. A day has passed, and in less than ten hours we will be heading to Beisong Park. To be honest, I am very nervous.
I've been wondering what Biyuan's purpose was in doing this.
If Biyuan wanted to destroy Jiangbei, there was no need to go through all this trouble to kidnap Sister Jing and Sun Zichen and then negotiate. What was the purpose of all this?
Could it be that they want Jiangbei to admit defeat on their own?
This is clearly an unrealistic thing.
Suddenly I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and saw the beam of a flashlight shining brightly on my face.
“I knew you were here, Brother Lu.” Zhang Zhihao’s voice came from behind the flashlight beam.
He put the flashlight on the table, and that's when I could see him clearly.
"What's wrong? You can't sleep either?" I asked.
Zhang Zhihao nodded. "Yeah, I've been worried about Sun Zichen and Sister Jing. I haven't slept much these past two days. Brother Lu, what do you think we should do tomorrow? What if something really happens? Wouldn't that be a huge problem?"
I looked into the darkness and said, "Regardless of whether something goes wrong or not, the current situation is very troublesome for us."
Zhang Zhihao asked, "Brother Lu, is there still no news from Lu Yun?"
I shook my head and said, "No, there's been no news since she went there. I guess nothing happened to her. She survived alone for so long, she must know what she's doing. And with her abilities, no one can do anything to her."
Zhang Zhihao asked curiously, "What abilities does she have? How can she be so powerful?"
I raised an eyebrow and said, "Actually, I don't know if she has that special ability. It's just my guess, and it's not realistic."
What kind of guess?
I turned and stared into Zhang Zhihao's eyes, saying, "She's not afraid of zombies."
"Huh?" Zhang Zhihao was stunned, not understanding.
I explained, "Well, if I'm not mistaken, she shouldn't be discovered by the zombies. Simply put, if she walks among the zombie horde, the zombies won't bite her, understand?"
Zhang Zhihao's expression changed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "How is that possible!"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know how to explain it, because I haven't seen her walking among the zombies, so I can't judge. But one thing I'm sure of is that people who aren't afraid of zombies really do exist."
"Do you remember someone we heard about when we went to Wutong City before?"
"Who?" Zhang Zhihao asked.
I said, "Xu Le is the person who's giving the Wutong City government team a headache."
"Is he that kind of person too?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know if he is that kind of person, but he once met someone like that, and this person was eventually exiled by him. I don't know why he did that."
Zhang Zhihao exclaimed in surprise, "There really are people like that!"
I said calmly, "There are all kinds of birds in a big forest. Everyone is born different. Maybe some people are born geniuses, and maybe some people are born dull-witted. So why can't there be people who are not afraid of zombies?"
Zhang Zhihao said, "So, this is their superpower?"
I shook my head. "This isn't a superpower. Although I haven't figured out exactly what's going on yet, there must be an explanation. If there are many people in the world who aren't afraid of zombies, maybe the future of humanity will belong to them. After all, they have a huge advantage over us."
Zhang Zhihao said, "I always felt that there weren't many people like this. I've lived in Jiangbei for so long and I've never seen one."
I said, "People in Jiangbei don't encounter zombies every day, so how do you know there aren't any such people among them?"
Zhang Zhihao suddenly realized, "In that case, we can give it a try. Maybe we can actually find one among them."
I said, "Let's talk about this after this is over. To be honest, I'm really afraid that Sister Jing and Sun Zichen are already dead, and that tomorrow's negotiations are a trap set by Biyuan. If we get ambushed, we'll only have one way out: death."
Zhang Zhihao patted my shoulder and said, "Brother Lu, we came to Jiajiang from Hangzhou with great difficulty. We originally wanted to go to the safe zone, but when we got here, we found that the safe zone had long since turned into a zombie zone. If you hadn't stood up and encouraged everyone, we probably would have died back then."
I smiled wryly, recalling what happened back then, and sighed, "Actually, those things and those principles were all Pu Weichao's theories. I just copied them verbatim, and who knew they would actually work."
Zhang Zhihao said, "There was nothing we could do. Back then, we trusted you, Brother Lu. Even though Zhou Liang's incident happened later, at least we're still alive. Brother Lu, I believe Sister Jing is definitely still alive too. She finally found her sister; how could she die so easily?"
"Um."
Zhang Zhihao continued, "I believe we have a future. We must fight with all our might. One day, we will find Zhou Liang. For my brother-in-law, for my nephew, for Chenbian, for Sister Yunlan, for Yan Zhengfeng, we must fight to survive."
"Yes, we have to fight with all our might." I touched my watch and thought of Wu Shuang.
I only knew Wu Shuang for a few days, but she will never be forgotten in my heart.
Zhang Zhihao said, "Tomorrow, we'll fight to the death!"
...
June 15th, 6:00 AM.
We slept for about three hours before getting up.
The three of us went downstairs, where Su Mu was already waiting.
"What do you two mean by not letting me go!" Fei Lichao frowned, his face full of displeasure.
I said, "Old Fei, we're enough to go to Beisong Park, and we need you to stay here and keep watch. I thought about it all night yesterday and still don't understand what Biyuan's real purpose is, but there's a high probability that it might happen."
Zhang Zhihao chimed in, "The possibility is that Biyuan's people might launch a sneak attack on Jiangbei while we're negotiating. Brother Fei, you're much better than me at dealing with sneak attacks, so Jiangbei will have to rely on you for now. What will happen to Jiangbei if you come with us?"
Fei Lichao was speechless after what we said, and he couldn't find any reason to refute us.
Zhang Zhihao and I got into the car, where Su Mu was already waiting for us.
After boarding the bus, we officially set off.
Such a high-profile departure was also intended to let the traitor see it, so that they could make some use of the traitor.
