Chapter 355 Before I was born, I made no promises



At the Xiangcheng base, everything that could be built into a city wall has been built, and everything that could be covered with barbed wire has been erected.

They began full-scale preparations for the arrival of the zombie horde.

Therefore, the guards stationed inside the barbed wire fence became extremely nervous when they discovered Zhong Ziming's car speeding towards them.

Zhong Ziming pursed his lips, holding his phone with the lost universal connector in his hand, and shouted loudly.

"Let me in. I need to see Shi Caixia. I have something important to tell you. Hurry up."

"I won't say anything, I won't say anything at all, until I see Shi Caixia!"

After a while, the electrified iron gate opened, but the garrison did not let Zhong Zimo in.

Gong Yi came out from inside.

He strode over to Zhong Ziming's car, pulled Zhong Ziming out, and threw him on the ground.

Gong Yi's forehead veins bulged, and he asked in a cold voice,

What are you doing back here?

Behind him were several guards, all fully armed, and in the middle was the driver Zhong Ziming had hired.

They were just about to leave the barbed wire fence and head to City E to search for the bus.

Zhong Ziming lay on the ground, which was wet because the snow had melted, and half of his body was soaked.

Upon seeing that it was Gong Yi, Zhong Ziming gave a forced smile.

"Your Xiangcheng base is discriminating against me? I can't come back? I haven't done anything heinous, why can't I come back?"

"I'm looking for Shi Caixia. I told you, Shi Caixia isn't coming."

Before he could finish speaking, Gong Yi picked up the PKM rifle he was carrying on his back and struck Zhong Ziming with the butt, leaving his face covered in blood.

His nose was knocked crooked.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Ziming was treated so violently upon returning to the Xiangcheng base, and he shrank back in disbelief.

He opened his mouth, spitting out several knocked-out teeth, his mouth full of blood, and asked...

"You hit me?"

Are garrison troops also assaulting people?

Zhong Ziming asked again, "You hit me?"

With a stern face, Gong Yi brought the rifle butt down again, hitting Zhong Ziming squarely in the face once more.

"I'm asking you, why did you come back?"

The driver who fled said that Zhong Ziming went to find supplies while he was running away.

Now that Zhong Ziming has run back to the Xiangcheng base, what happened to his truckload of mutated beasts?

What's going on?

With his face smashed to pieces, Zhong Ziming could no longer be arrogant. He coughed up blood as he spoke.

"They're catching up! They're catching up! Shi Caixia, quickly call Shi Caixia here, I need protection."

He probably knew that he wasn't very popular at the Xiangcheng base.

Therefore, in order to obtain protection, he had to get Shi Caixia to step in.

At least, the two were in a romantic relationship, so Shi Caixia wouldn't just stand by and watch him get bullied.

Gong Yi squinted at Zhong Ziming, took out his phone, and sent a message to the garrison elites under his command.

The communication devices used for garrison duty are still not as clear as Huami's universal signal connector.

He directly instructed the elites not to linger in D City any longer, but to all gather in Xiangcheng East.

The zombies in D City can be left for the workers at the Xiangcheng base to earn extra money.

Just as Gong Yi finished sending the message and was considering how to kill Zhong Ziming,

Two people appeared from the teleportation point behind them.

Hua Mi, who still has a hospital wristband on her wrist, and Shi Caixia, who is carrying two axes on her back.

Upon seeing Shi Caixia appear, Zhong Ziming, whose body was cold and wet on the ground, hurriedly crawled over and shouted loudly.

"Caixia, Caixia, please save me! Gong Yi is going to kill me, Caixia!"

Shouting, Zhong Ziming turned back to look at Gong Yi, whose face was cold and stern.

"So what if you're the commander? You can't treat human life like dirt! I didn't do anything wrong. I just took a truckload of women with me. What did I do wrong to deserve being killed by you?"

From beginning to end, Zhong Ziming's choices were simply choices that any ordinary, normal person would make.

Who doesn't want to climb the ladder?

Think about those people who are so eager to make a living. They consider the future, money, and career prospects. Everyone thinks about how to choose the best option for themselves.

"Whether it's before or after the apocalypse, is it wrong for me to flatter people? Is it wrong for me to seek advantage and avoid harm?"

Zhong Ziming looked at Shi Caixia with a complicated expression as he crawled on the wet snow.

“I did nothing wrong, Caixia. Do you remember when we talked about working hard and climbing higher and higher in the management system?”

"Have you forgotten? Quickly tell Gong Yi not to kill me."

Faced with his grievances and resentment, Shi Caixia frowned slightly.

Hua Mi, who was standing next to her, had already asked the guard on duty about the situation.

She walked back and said to Shi Caixia.

"Zhong Ziming is beyond saving; he lured the mutated beast back to Xiangcheng."

"What mutated beast?" Zhong Ziming shouted. "How would I know it's a mutated beast?"

"I didn't do it on purpose."

He wasn't a prophet; he didn't know the dangers posed by Vasily and his ilk.

Anyone would run away when they see a zombie, right? He encountered something wrong, so what's wrong with him running back to Xiangcheng?

Shouting, Zhong Ziming pointed to the drivers in the garrison area.

"He...didn't he also return to the Xiangcheng base? Why not kill him, but instead try to kill me?"

Shi Caixia sighed.

"Before they ran back to Xiangcheng, they at least gave everyone a heads-up. What did you do?"

"I've lost the universal signal connector on my phone," Zhong Ziming continued to shout.

He felt wronged, extremely wronged.

Shi Caixia shook her head. "I know you too well. You know there are mutated beasts behind you, so you haven't made a sound the whole way."

"Because you're afraid that if you tell others there's danger behind you, they'll stop you from coming back."

So Zhong Ziming remained silent all the way to the barbed wire fence of the Xiangcheng base.

He didn't even intend to tell anyone unless Gong Yi pressed him.

He insisted on waiting for Shi Caixia to come forward to protect him, and even then, he might not reveal the truth.

Zhong Zimo is very good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages; his success and failure both stem from his shrewdness.

"No one is saying that striving to climb the social ladder is wrong, but sophisticated egoism in the current environment is a capital offense."

Hua Mi spoke and walked towards the iron gate, looking at Zhong Ziming outside, preparing to sneak out in the chaos.

It's her fault. When she set up the teleportation point, she just randomly placed one outside the Tomson Riviera villa complex.

The Tomson Riviera villa community has now been incorporated into the Xiangcheng base.

This teleportation point was also enclosed within barbed wire.

Hua Mi wanted to go see the mutated beasts.

However, Gong Yi, standing outside the iron gate, turned around, his buzz cut making him look even more fierce, and he stared at Hua Mi menacingly.

The foot that was about to sneak out of the iron gate was quickly pulled back.

Hua Mi turned around and shoved Shi Caixia.

"I said I'm not coming. I'm currently in the hospital awaiting delivery. You can go out and have fun by yourself. I'm not making plans until I give birth."

It's raining and the temperature has dropped.
