Chapter 146 He cannot abandon the defense of City A



Nobody knows how Chen Lu finally resolved the matter.

But given the magnitude and severity of this incident, the fact that Chen Lu's resume remained so clean suggests something was amiss.

Yang Honglin relayed what the veteran police officers had said to Gong Yi.

Gong Yi hummed in agreement, hung up Yang Honglin's call, and then called Hua Mi.

"Are you running off again? I told you to stay put, why can't you stay still?"

After hearing Yang Honglin's words, Gong Yi wasn't worried about anything else, but he was worried that the monkey was running around everywhere all day and would be targeted by the Chen family.

Hua Mi was walking towards the watchtower in Xiangcheng, a smile on her face.

"If I were to become idle, wouldn't you have even more work to do, boss?"

She made jokes and banter as she walked to the foot of the watchtower, and then spoke to Gong Yi on the phone.

“I have an idea. Let’s work together. You give me a piece of land under the watchtower in Xiangcheng, and I can build whatever I want on it.”

Hua Mi wants to build a teleportation point under the watchtower in Xiangcheng.

Just like in a video game, if any survivors get tired of fighting monsters and other people outside and don't want to walk anymore, they can tear up their tickets and return to the city.

Hua Mi can sell tickets.

Hua Mi just acquired 9 square meters of black soil, right? She can cut off 1 square meter and build this teleportation point outside the city. She can make it beautiful and grand, with a fantasy feel to it.

Then, by building some protective structures around it, we can reinforce the safety measures a few more times.

Hua Mi had already thought all this through. The reason she wanted to cooperate with Gong Yi was because she wanted Gong Yi to send troops to protect the teleportation point.

Of course, Hua Mi couldn't explain such a grand and fantastical thing to Gong Yi in detail right now.

Because she herself couldn't explain it.

Hua sought out Gong Yi.

"Where are you now? I'm coming to find you,"

Since she couldn't explain it, she decided to let Gong Yi experience the magic of teleportation firsthand. That way, she could use Gong Yi's name to tell everyone that she had a teleportation point that could be used to teleport back to town.

Gong Yi looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.

"I'm still on my way to the armory in City A."

There was no need to go. The fact that Chen Hu was holding garrison firearms already indicated that the theft of those weapons was related to the Chen family.

It's highly likely that the Chen family did this.

Gong Yi did not plan to venture further into City A. He was currently leading a small group of people, and provoking the Chen family would be a drain on his resources.

After weighing the pros and cons, Gong Yi decided to first contact the remaining garrison in City A.

He cannot abandon the garrison in City A. If any garrison members in City A are willing to go with him, he will bring them back to Xiangcheng.

After giving Hua Mi his location, Gong Yi stopped where he was and had the accompanying radio operator send a message to the garrison in City A using the garrison channel.

He told all the garrison troops in City A that he was waiting for them in Xiangcheng, and that if they lost their commander, he would be their commander.

He will lead them to continue building a human wall, consolidating humanity's last line of defense.

After sending the telegram, Gong Yi knew it was very likely that the Chen family would see it.

However, the reason he didn't go to City A is the same reason that applies to the Chen family. The Chen family wouldn't be foolish enough to lead their people directly to Xiangcheng.

Almost at the same time that Gong Yi sent the telegram, Chen Hu received the contents of Gong Yi's telegram.

The dark villa resembled a castle. Lightning flashed across the roof, and Chen Hu's chubby figure stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The garrison commander stood behind him.

Since the garrison commander of City A "settled in" at the Chen family villa, all news from the garrison has been sent to the Chen family villa.

Chen Hu had a face full of fat, which made his eyes look as small as mung beans.

He turned around and looked at the garrison commander of City A, whose face was covered in thick, fleshy muscles that looked like a flower.

"I've heard that this guy named Gong Yi is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He was able to drive Yu Guanglin out of Xiangcheng. If he's sending you to Xiangcheng, he must have ulterior motives too."

Liu Shengyuan, who had come to deliver the message to the garrison commander of City A, stood up straight and said nothing.

In fact, he didn't understand why he should hand the telegram in his hand to Chen Hu instead of their A City garrison commander.

Could it be true, as Gong Yi said in the telegram, that their garrison in City A has lost its commander?

“Go back first and tell the brothers stationed here to stay in City A well. City A has no shortage of supplies for the garrison. My Chen family will do everything in its power to support the garrison in City A.”

Chen Hu spoke very sincerely, just as previously reported, he is a very, very kind person.

In fact, from the very beginning of the earthquake, the Chen family donated money and supplies to Xiangcheng and did some good deeds for a while.

The report even said that Chen Hu personally organized a convoy of wealthy people to go to Xiangcheng for disaster relief.

At that time, news about the charitable deeds of wealthy people like Chen Hu was everywhere, which made the people in City A feel very complicated.

People outsiders say Chen Hu is a great philanthropist and a conscientious entrepreneur, but in reality, only the locals in City A know that the Chen family is a powerful local force in City A.

Everyone in City A knows that the Chen family is not to be trifled with, but if you mess with the Chen family, you can either get a sum of money or lose your life.

To give a very simple example, let's talk about Chen Lu, the third young master of the Chen family.

Chen Lu has ruined many girls in City A, to the point that people are so terrified that it is said he drives around the streets and if he sees a good-looking woman on the side of the road, no matter who she is, how old she is, or whether she is married or not, he will take her to his car first.

Of course, there are also innocent girls who are not convinced by this, and their fate is either to receive a large sum of hush money or for their entire family to disappear.

The kind of disappearance that leaves no trace.

Over the years, the Chen family has also built bridges and roads for City A and actively cooperated with the management's various management measures, doing everything meticulously.

So how should the people of City A view the Chen family? They can only avoid them if they can't afford to offend them.

As the earthquake spread to City A, people gradually realized something was wrong. It seemed like the earthquakes were going to continue indefinitely, and supplies in the entire city of City A suddenly became scarce.

No one knew what happened. Liu Shengyuan only found out later that while almost all of A City's management were buried, A City's supply depot suddenly appeared in the hands of the Chen family.

The order, issued from the Chen family's home, included their A City garrison commander, who commanded all A City garrisons to remain in the city and not participate in the rescue efforts, but instead focus on protecting A City's supply depot.

With no supplies circulating in the market, food and drink seemed to have vanished overnight. The Chen family, who once held onto the supplies of City A, did not give away a single grain of rice.

Under these circumstances, the widespread starvation in City A seems particularly logical.

Well, my relatives won't even let me cook braised pork, for fear I'll set their house on fire, let alone let me kill a chicken.
