Chapter 374 A Definite Conspiracy



The foreman followed Hua Mi angrily.

"If someone like that happens again, I'll definitely beat him to death."

He clenched his fists, looking extremely indignant.

The main problem is that Huo Jing was also implicated this time, and the contractor felt that he could tolerate his aunt but not his uncle.

He turned around and decided to have someone inspect the construction site to eliminate all potential threats.

Hua Mi listened to the contractor's grumbling and whining. After taking a walk around the west side, she gave the contractor a few pieces of guidance.

With the foreman bowing and scraping to her, she sat down under a stall on the west side of Xiangcheng to rest, her pregnant belly protruding.

There are no more vendors outside Xiangcheng, but there are still some inside. After all, the Xiangcheng base is so large, encompassing the original three towns and cities; the area is too big, and all sorts of things can be found here.

Aside from a few women who come to work on the construction site, there are a large number of men coming and going every day.

The contractor and Huo Jing simply didn't have the energy to screen each person they considered reliable.

Under the parasol, a vendor took a glass of iced orange juice from the freezer, handed it to Hua Mi, and asked if she wanted some.

Hua Mi shook her head and touched her belly. She was now avoiding cold foods and drinks, fearing that catching a cold or fever at this time would only make things worse for herself and her baby.

The vendor glanced at Hua Mi's belly and started chatting.

"How many babies are you carrying? It looks like you're pregnant three or four times."

Hua Mi shook her head.

She was pregnant twice.

She's only about eight months pregnant, but she feels like she's about to give birth in the next couple of days because of very frequent contractions.

Although Xin Qiuru had been preparing nutritious meals for her and strictly limiting her nutritional intake during this time, fearing that the child would grow too big and Hua Mi would be unable to cope.

But her belly continued to grow bigger every day, like an inflating balloon.

The vendors stared in amazement at Hua Mi's enormous belly, marveling at how big the babies inside must be, especially since it was a twin pregnancy.

These days, anyone who dares to have a child is truly courageous.

The courageous Hua Mi smiled and asked the vendor,

"You're quite bold."

"You've set up your stall here, aren't you afraid that zombies from the west will rush in and eat everything on your stall first?"

They ate the vendor's food along with the food.

Upon hearing this, the vendor pulled out two kitchen knives and placed them on his freezer.

"What's there to be afraid of? I'll kill them one by one. What kind of time is this? They won't even let me do a little business? These zombies deserve to die."

Before the apocalypse, he ran a stall business and was chased by the city management officers every day.

Even after the apocalypse, he continued to run a stall in Xiangcheng and didn't think that he should stop doing business just because zombies were coming.

If he doesn't do business, what should he do?

Then the vendor said to Hua Mi:

"Actually, you don't need to worry. Our Xiangcheng base may look scary from the outside, but Xiangcheng has survived so many natural and man-made disasters. When has it ever collapsed?"

"Don't worry, based on my years of observation living in Xiangcheng, Xiangcheng will not fall this time either."

Despite many people in Xiangcheng saying that Xiangcheng is about to be destroyed.

Since the eastern city wall was put up, survivors have been prohibited from entering or leaving the south and east sides.

Therefore, the western part of the area has become more popular.

Many people still choose to leave the Xiangcheng base every day.

They all entered through the North Gate or the West Gate. After the North Gate was closed these past two days, there were many more survivors at the West Gate.

The vendor, who had been doing business near the West Gate, said mysteriously to Hua Mi:

"Just stay here in Xiangcheng base and give birth to the child. I'm telling you, I have inside information: Xiangcheng will not perish."

Hua Mi asked with great interest:

"If you have any inside information, tell me about it so I can feel at ease,"

The vendor took a chair, sat down next to Hua Mi, and whispered...

"You know that Xiangcheng has plenty of supplies, right? Let me tell you, usually before a natural disaster or man-made calamity strikes, wholesale sources like ours will definitely tighten their supply chains."

"Either prices rise or supplies are scarce, but neither is the case in Xiangcheng."

"Our Xiangcheng has always had a very sufficient supply of materials. From this perspective, the higher authorities are more than capable of handling these disasters. Otherwise, the supply of materials would definitely fluctuate."

The vendor was clever, but not exceptionally so.

He simply used the most basic wisdom of the working people to analyze that Xiangcheng would not perish so quickly.

At least in the face of this zombie siege, the street vendors could tell that Xiangcheng was prepared to resist and cope with the disaster.

Hua Mi looked at him with admiration, thinking that wisdom truly resided in the working class.

She chatted with the vendors for a few more minutes, and then two garrison soldiers came over, one of whom was Cao Feng.

He saluted Hua Mi.

"Sister-in-law, the person who tried to assassinate you has confessed. He's one of Chen Hu's men."

Chen Hu is currently in City E, everyone knows that, and now that things have come to this, there's no need for Chen Hu to hide anymore.

He also lacked the energy and ability to hide himself away again.

After all, to conceal himself and evade Gong Yi's pursuit, a great deal of manpower and resources would be needed for cover.

Chen Hu is now out of people; not only is he out of people, he's also out of money.

However, no one went after Chen Hu.

Everyone in Xiangcheng was busy; Hua Mi was busy giving birth and repairing the city wall.
