Upon hearing the voices inside, the people standing outside were struck dumb. They had gone through countless hardships to get here, risking their lives and almost being killed by the super mutants, but they never expected that their greatest difficulty would come from their own kind.
"You fucking open the door right now! We're all from District Nine! Why won't you let us in! Open the door right now!"
But no matter how much they shouted, the people inside remained indifferent.
As the super mutants drew ever closer behind them, they finally realized they shouldn't have come this way.
Then, his eyes blazing with fury, he glared at the people on the other side of the barbed wire: "You...you won't get away with this!"
After saying that, the group quickly returned to the car and prepared to turn around and leave.
However, the path they came from was completely blocked by super mutants, and now there were more and more super mutants all around them, and they were about to have nowhere to go.
"Damn it! Keep going! Don't brake! No matter what you hit, don't brake!"
So the cars stopped caring about what was in front of them and sped off at breakneck speed.
A series of impacts rang out continuously. The tall super mutants were, after all, still human, so they were no match for the steel cars. They were knocked away one by one, but it did not cause them any harm.
However, there were simply too many super mutants, and the car couldn't pick up any speed before getting stuck in traffic.
"Oh no! We're doomed!" That was all the people in the convoy could think.
As expected, the enraged super mutant began dismantling the car.
Sharp claws ripped open the roof of the car, exposing them, who were quickly overwhelmed by the horde of super mutants.
Those who witnessed this scene from afar were all terrified, secretly relieved that they hadn't gone over there, or they would have been the ones to die.
At this moment, Chen Chong, sitting in his office, kept his eyes glued to the computer screen, but there was still no activity in his email.
Suddenly, after a while, the computer stopped responding, but the phone rang.
Without any hesitation, Chen Chong picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.
"Old Tang! You've thought it through?"
Tang Jincheng's voice carried a hint of helplessness: "I've already read the email you just sent me! Humph! If I had seen it myself, I wouldn't have paid any attention to it, but my little grandson spoke up! This time, I'll make an exception and help you!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Chong was immediately overjoyed: "Thank you, Elder Tang! I knew you wouldn't stand idly by!"
"Don't be too happy yet! I've already inquired with the military, and they won't be sending troops there for the time being. After all, big data analysis shows you're perfectly capable of protecting yourselves! They won't go until they receive orders!"
"This... Elder Tang, is there any other way?" Chen Chong asked anxiously.
He had seen everything that had just happened. Although he felt nothing about those people who rushed out, he now knew just how terrifying these super mutants were. He wanted to leave as soon as possible, but leaving so abruptly was definitely not an option. These people were all counting on him, and they certainly wouldn't let him leave.
The best approach would be to travel with a group of people first, calm their emotions, and then proceed with the rest of the discussion.
Tang Jincheng said slowly, "It's like this! Although the army won't be coming, the higher-ups have already begun investigating the origins of this matter! I'll have them send more aircraft over, and you can leave with them! As for what happens after that, you don't need to worry about it!"
"That's great! Thank you, Mr. Tang! When will the investigation team arrive?"
"It should be within the next couple of days! Just be patient!"
When Chen Chong heard that it would be another two days, his heart sank. However, compared to no one coming, this news was still quite good.
Then Old Tang asked again, "We've received some information that this matter seems to be related to someone. Could you help me investigate Lu Yuan? Also, be careful not to alert him!"
Chen Chong was immediately startled and looked outside before asking, "Old Tang, are you saying... that Lu Yuan is the mastermind behind this?"
"It's not entirely certain yet, but someone needs to take charge of the middle management! You know what I mean!"
Upon hearing Tang Jincheng's words, Chen Chong immediately understood. They didn't want to cause trouble for themselves, so they needed to find a scapegoat. However, they couldn't just find any scapegoat, so they usually found someone relevant and framed him. Obviously, Lu Yuan was the unfortunate scapegoat.
"Yes, Mr. Tang, I understand! I'll go gather the evidence right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Chen Chong immediately called his secretary in, gave her some instructions, and then said, "Arrange for a few representatives from the industrial zone to come here for a meeting later! Keep the number of people under twenty!"
The secretary immediately nodded: "Okay!"
The secretary then asked again, "This Lu Yuan... seems to be quite famous! Almost everyone in the industrial park knows about his disappearance a while ago. What if we make him a scapegoat...?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Chong burst into laughter: "We're in dire need of a scapegoat right now! Look how perfectly Lu Yuan fits the bill! He disappeared for a while, then came back and unleashed this super mutant power! What does that mean? It means he's very likely the real mastermind behind this! Investigate carefully! Don't arouse his suspicion!"
