"So..." Zhou Zheng raised his eyes, his aura not at all overshadowed by Qiao Qiao's, "Sister Qiao Qiao, are you guessing what Plum Blossom City will do next?"
“No,” the woman raised an eyebrow, “it’s a guess we all have. Isn’t that what Boss Zhou thinks too?”
She looked at the four high-ranking officials of the City of Spades, "Think about it, if the same thing happened again as it did two years ago, our City of Spades has the strength to resist, but what about you?"
In fact, Qiao Qiao's appearance was less about "wanting to cooperate" and more about "wanting to help".
Someone like Qiao Qiao, who has always been in a high position in "Ace of Spades," has experienced too much and could not possibly be unaware of the strangeness of the series of events that occurred after the sudden lockdown of the City of Clubs four years ago.
If the City of Clubs causes any more trouble, the other three colors will rise and fall together. Therefore, the City of Spades, as the strongest in terms of military power, will certainly not stand idly by.
Liu Xingxing couldn't help but look at Zhou Zheng, waiting for him to speak.
Zhou Zhengdao said, "But how can Sister Qiao be sure that our City of Diamonds won't be on the opposite side of City of Spades this time?"
Qiao Qiao gave a cold laugh, "To be honest, I've already reached a cooperation agreement with President Huang of Red Peach City. My people will work with her people to ensure the safety of both regions. If you still want to side with Plum Blossom City this time, don't blame me for not showing any mercy later."
Zhou Zheng looked at the other three, and the four of them exchanged glances.
Then, Zhou Zheng stood up, extended his hand to Qiao Qiao, and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you, Sister Qiao Qiao."
Qiaoqiao smiled and stood up to shake that hand.
She stretched and said to Wu Fangming, "Xiao Wu, you and your men will be stationed here from now on. Finding a place for my brothers to stay shouldn't be difficult for Boss Zhou, right?"
Wu Fangming: "Yes."
Zhou Zheng: "It's my honor."
After the business was settled, Qiaoqiao checked into the place arranged by Zhou Zheng, planning to stay for a few days before heading home. Chuanliu was arranged to stay with Qiaoqiao for the next few days.
"Chuanliu, I've heard about your deeds."
Qiao Qiao and Chuan Liu walked side by side in the City of Cubes, with Wu Fangming standing on Qiao Qiao's other side, and the woman's subordinates following behind.
"You've worked your way up from 'Square 2' to where you are now; it truly impresses me."
Chuanliu humbly shook his head, "I have no resources or qualifications; it's the higher-ups who have given me this opportunity."
Qiaoqiao didn't take it to heart. She looked at Chuanliu encouragingly and said, "It's already difficult for us women to survive in a place like Paradise Island. Anyone who's gotten to your position would have been targeted by those wolves and wolves long ago if they didn't have some ability. Don't underestimate yourself. You have to keep getting stronger, understand?"
"Thank you for your guidance, Sister Qiaoqiao." Chuan smiled gratefully.
Qiao Qiao waved her hand, "Actually, before I came here this time, I went to see A Qing."
"Tang Qing of the 'Dark Gate,' Lord Tang?" Chuanliu asked.
Qiaoqiao: "Yes, Aqing said she met you once before and told me that you're a nice girl and asked me to take care of you."
Chuanliu touched his nose. "You flatter me."
“As I just said, sometimes you shouldn’t be too modest.” Qiao Qiao reached out and put her arm around her, as if she were giving the girl energy. “Nothing on Paradise Island is a given, only the strength that matches it.”
Chuanliu nodded seriously; she could feel Qiaoqiao's concern for her.
Perhaps because we are both women, we should help each other even more on Paradise Island.
The two chatted for a long time.
Chuanliu discovers that Qiaoqiao's philosophy is actually very straightforward: to cooperate with people who share the same goal and fight together against those who want to destroy the peace of Paradise Island.
She instructed her brothers to uphold the principles of "loyalty" and "righteousness".
Those who are disloyal, unkind, and unjust shall be killed.
At the same time, Qiaoqiao felt that the women on Paradise Island should help each other and work together to find a place to survive.
However, Qiao Qiao will not force everyone to share her ideals. If you don't want to join her camp, you don't have to; she doesn't even care if someone wants to join the enemy camp.
In the end, it all comes down to raw strength.
In this respect, JoJo, as the big sister of Spade City, is never afraid.
Chuanliu admires people like Sister Qiaoqiao; she has her own ideas, her own pursuits, and most importantly, she takes action.
And so, the day passed peacefully.
Next, Qiaoqiao and Zhou Zheng made specific arrangements for the cooperation, striving to respond promptly to any actions taken by Plum Blossom City.
Just as the two sides were discussing, Qian Chuan, who was in the Wuwang District, sent an urgent message with shocking news.
The City of Spades and the City of Hearts are about to be shrouded in an unprecedented crisis.
A large number of corpses surged out of the abyss, shattering the long-standing tranquility.
These terrifying zombies, who had never crossed the line before, now seemed to be provoked and frantically crossed the border defenses of Plum Blossom City.
Their arrival brought devastating blows to innocent residents on both sides of the border, and despair and panic filled the city.
The corpses rampaged wildly, filling the streets with the stench of blood and wails, their sharp claws reaching indiscriminately at every living person.
Even more worrying is that some of the zombies seem to have evolved to the point where they are no longer afraid of sunlight. They exhibit amazing behavioral abilities in both day and night, making defense even more difficult.
Since the City of Blocks and the City of Plum Blossoms are not directly adjacent, they are currently able to maintain a relatively peaceful environment.
However, given the rapid spread of the zombie horde, the peace of the Cube City is also in jeopardy, and it will likely soon face an invasion by zombies.
Qiaoqiao and Zhou Zheng shared the same idea—the Plum Blossom City needed to take action.
After giving instructions to Zhou Zheng, Qiao Qiao prepared to return to the city immediately to urgently arrange a strategy to deal with the City of Spades.
The City of Blocks provided three vehicles, led by Chuanliu, to escort them.
Three cars sped along the wide avenue like arrows, chasing the setting sun. The bustling scenery of the City of Squares quickly receded, then seamlessly transitioned into the City of Hearts, and finally approached the border of the City of Spades.
Inside the car, Qiaoqiao's expression was unusually solemn. Her gaze was fixed on the scenery rushing past the window, and she did not utter a word.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Chuanliu kept glancing at Qiaoqiao through the rearview mirror while steering the wheel. She knew Qiaoqiao's worry for the safety of the residents of Spade City, so she silently floored the accelerator to shorten the distance as quickly as possible and buy Qiaoqiao more time.
Just then, the lead vehicle suddenly braked hard, its tires screeching as they rubbed against the ground.
The drivers of the vehicles in the river and those following closely behind reacted quickly and braked suddenly, narrowly avoiding a chain-reaction collision.
Upon closer inspection, dozens of corpses were seen silently approaching on the road ahead.
They had ferocious faces and twisted limbs, and were baring their teeth and claws as they approached the three vehicles.
