Five days have passed since Wang Zixiang and the others left, and Ye Yunyi still hasn't heard from them.
While organizing everyone to build the wall and plant crops, she worried about whether something had gone wrong over there.
According to the previous plan, they would send Weifeng to inform them of the situation, but he has never come. Did something happen to them, or were they being held hostage?
Dr. Shen's medicine is definitely effective. If they want to cure the half-corpse virus, the possibility of accidents is very small; otherwise, they will be under human control.
What could be the reason for being physically controlled? Has Zhao Yong or Wang Zixiang been exposed? Even if Wang Zixiang has been exposed, the medicine is still useful, and in order to obtain more medicine and treatment, they won't kill Wang Zixiang.
If Zhao Yong has been exposed, then... Ye Yunyi's heart skipped a beat; the situation was likely dire.
Thinking of this, Ye Yunyi called Xiao Fang over and asked her to keep an eye on things at Jiangyue Community, as she needed to take some people out for a trip.
Without hesitation, Ye Yunyi told Xiao Deng and Liu Bin to go out with her. Taking advantage of the night, they went to scout out the situation.
Liu Bin drove the car, while Ye Yunyi carried guns, bows and arrows, binoculars, a drone, and a walkie-talkie towards the West City Prison.
Because the prison is constantly patrolled, they couldn't drive too close. Fortunately, the prisons are located in relatively remote areas, and there was a small grove of trees behind them.
Ye Yunyi and Xiao Deng parked the car in a place where they couldn't patrol. Liu Bin stayed in the car while she and Xiao Deng sneaked into the grove to check the situation.
Under the dim moonlight, they moved stealthily, killing any zombies they encountered with bows and arrows or long knives. They arrived safely in the grove of trees near the prison. They ran to higher ground, where they could see the entire prison.
Ye Yunyi glanced at her watch; it was 11 p.m. The prison was surrounded by high walls and electric fences, making it difficult for prisoners to escape or even breach. Inside, lights were still on, revealing two brightly lit buildings. Patrol personnel could be seen throughout the prison area.
It seems the security measures are quite good.
One of the buildings has rooms with large floor-to-ceiling windows and curtains. Through some of the curtains that are not drawn, you can see beds and simple furniture inside, which is somewhat similar to the layout of a hotel.
"Sister Yiyi, look, isn't that Instructor Zhao?" Xiao Deng, holding binoculars, saw a person doing push-ups in a room.
Ye Yunyi took the binoculars and saw that it was indeed Zhao Yong. She then looked at the two adjacent rooms; one had its curtains drawn, and the other had them half-drawn. In the half-drawn room, a person came out of the bathroom—it was Xiao Qin, who had just finished washing up. The other room with the curtains drawn must be Wang Zixiang's.
Ye Yunyi felt a little relieved, at least the three of them were still alive.
Holding binoculars in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other, she began to shout, "Zhao Yong, please respond if you hear me, Zhao Yong, please respond if you hear me, Zhao Yong, please respond if you hear me."
Don't ask her why she contacted Zhao Yong instead of Wang Zixiang. It's because of their long-term cooperation and tacit understanding. She felt that Zhao Yong was more reliable than Wang Zixiang in this kind of matter.
Through the binoculars, Zhao Yong, who had been doing push-ups, suddenly stopped. He listened carefully and heard the voice of a walkie-talkie in his bag. He quickly went to the window, pulled the curtains shut, and took out the walkie-talkie, saying, "Sister, this is Zhao Yong. I can hear you."
"That's great! Zhao Yong, what's the situation over there?" Ye Yunyi's voice was filled with excitement upon hearing the reply.
“Sister, we’ve been detained by Liu Da and are currently under surveillance, but our lives aren’t in danger. Brother-in-law has almost cured the half-corpse virus; his identity hasn’t been discovered, but they want to report that he can treat the half-corpse virus.” At this point, Zhao Yong paused and asked, “Sister, do you have a close friend named Liu Yanran?”
Ye Yunyi was listening intently to the analysis when Zhao Yong suddenly asked about Liu Yanran. She calmly replied, "Yes, she's here."
“Yes, she’s Liu Da’s woman, and she’s highly valued. We had decided on a plan today, and she got involved. This afternoon, our movements were restricted, and we were monitored even more closely. We suspect she betrayed us.” Zhao Yong said, concealing the fact that Wang Zixiang and Liu Yanran had kissed.
Ye Yunyi knew Liu Yanran's character; she was someone who prioritized self-interest, so this wasn't surprising. She paused for a moment and then asked, "What is the plan you've been discussing?"
Zhao Yong then explained the plan they had discussed.
Ye Yunyi said, "This plan is actually quite good. Don't worry, we can win Liu Yanran over. Have your brother-in-law talk to her and tell her that we can take her away and give her the life she wants. Jiangyue Community can tell her that too."
"Won't there be any danger?" Zhao Yong asked.
"As long as she knows this place can't be held, she knows what choice to make, so have confidence. Also, proceed according to plan. I will bring men over tomorrow evening. We'll start the operation at 10 o'clock."
"Okay, sis."
"be safe."
After making the contact, Ye Yunyi and Xiao Deng stayed for a while until the lights gradually went out. Ye Yunyi and Xiao Deng carefully launched a drone and observed the situation of the entire prison for a while. Then, she and Xiao Deng returned to the parking spot along the original route.
"Sister Yiyi, you're finally back!" Liu Bin's eyes crinkled into crescent moons with joy at their return.
"Let's go home," Ye Yunyi said, settling into the back seat.
After Zhao Yong made contact with Ye Yunyi, the heaviness and depression in his heart vanished. He suppressed his joy and prepared to find an opportunity to tell Wang Zixiang, Xiao Qin, and Weifeng about it the next day.
The next day, the sixth day of treating the zombie virus, the sun was shining brightly and the weather seemed to have warmed up, truly fitting the temperature of early spring in March.
Zhao Yong drew back the curtains and opened the window, letting the sunlight and breeze stream in. He stroked his hair, pretending to enjoy the breeze and sunshine, but actually gazing at the grove behind him. The grove contained some evergreen trees, not bare, just a heavy, dark green; some trees had sprouted tender new buds, and some early-flowering shrubs had blossomed with one or two flowers. And of course, there was a patch of bright yellow forsythia in full bloom, patch after patch. What a beautiful, vibrant spring scene!
He was in a particularly good mood today, and he found all the scenery exceptionally beautiful.
A moment later, there was a knock on his door, and Xiao Qin walked in with black eyes: "Brother Yong."
He had barely finished speaking when Zhao Yong said with a smile, "I have some good news for you."
"What is it?" Xiao Qin got excited too, wondering what other good news there was.
“Last night, my sister came. She told us…” Zhao Yong leaned close to Xiao Qin’s ear and recounted the policy he had discussed with Ye Yunyi the previous night.
Xiao Qin seemed to come alive, raising both hands with thumbs up and her face full of pride: "Sister Yiyi, you're amazing!"
