Brother Zhang shook his head and said while arranging the mahjong tiles: "You know that was in the past. How can you compare it with now? In the past, I could eat a full meal every day and was a 200-pound fat man. Look at me now..."
As Zhang spoke, he pulled at the two layers of dry skin under his arms. "It used to be all fat! Now, after several months of apocalyptic destruction, only two layers of skin remain."
Luo Hui forced himself to calm down. Brother Zhang's words made him feel a little uneasy. When he sent Su Xiangmei over, there were indeed many crying people in the research institute. Most of them were elderly people or children who were still confused.
It shouldn't be a problem. He can just go visit her in a few days.
Thinking of this, Luo Hui forced a smile again and started playing mahjong with several teammates.
…
At this moment, Su Jin and the other two were looking up the names of Dr. Pei and others in front of several old computers in the administrative building of the base.
They entered the names given by Liang Jiuhui one by one, but after searching, they all showed "no such person".
It was only after asking the staff there that they found out that there were several computers next to the lobby of the administrative building where survivors who wanted to find someone could search for the person they wanted to find by themselves. However, the information in the computers was from a long time ago, so generally no one would go there to search for anything.
"Dr. Pei and the others should have been here before the end of the world. There shouldn't be any left."
Su Jin tried to check a second time, but still found nothing.
"Their information should be confidential."
Lu Hao didn't hold much hope before coming here. Since Liang Jiuhui said that Dr. Pei's team couldn't return to City S even if they wanted to, it meant that these people in the base were definitely not easily found by ordinary people.
"How about we go look for it at the notice board that person mentioned yesterday..." Nie Qing suggested.
"Lu Hao?"
A voice sounded behind them. The three turned around and saw an unexpected person.
Lian Jiyue?
Lu Hao also looked at Lian Jiyue. Although Su Jin had told him before that he was the base commander of E City in his previous life, neither of them had expected that he had been in E City so early. So... he is already the base commander here?
After figuring this out, Lu Hao's eyes were full of vigilance. He didn't know what the relationship between Lian Jiyue and the research institute here was, but the purpose of their trip was most likely different from the position of the person in front of him.
Lian Ji Yue was also extremely shocked. It was indeed them, but why did they come here?
He glanced at the situation in the hall, then said to a few people: "You... follow me."
"We have something else to do, so we won't go over," Lu Hao replied.
Seeing Lu Hao's eyes full of vigilance towards him, Lian Jiyue sighed, walked a little closer, and said in Lu Hao's ear: "The research institute has noticed you."
“…”
Nie Qing didn't understand what the man had just said to his apprentice, and why the three of them were now following the strange man into the administrative building.
The reason why he thought the man was strange was that the first time he saw Lian Jiyue, he felt that there seemed to be a layer of black air surrounding his body. This black air... he couldn't understand the reason.
The three were taken by Lian Jiyue to a room at the end of the second floor of the administrative building.
"Please sit down anywhere, this is my office," said Lian Jiyue.
Putting aside the familiarity with the people around Lu Hao, he sat directly on a desk piled with documents and continued to ask, "Tell me, what are you doing here? If I'm not mistaken, you should have been in S City before, right?"
"How did you find out?"
Lu Hao looked at his former instructor. He didn't dislike this person before, but he didn't understand him at all.
"Well, someone filmed the video of you fighting the zombie horde and brought it back to us," Lian Jiyue replied.
"Huo Qi?"
Su Jin and Lu Hao thought of this person at the same time. Did he take a picture of them?
"Well, it should be, but I saw it in the hands of Lian Ze, who is now the director of the base research institute."
Lian Jiyue found a cup with a lid under a pile of messy documents. He opened the lid and saw that there was still water in it, so he drank it directly.
Lu Hao's brows were furrowed into a frown as he asked, "So, does the director of your research institute want to do something to us?"
"It's not you, it's her"
Lian Jiyue pointed the cup in Su Jin's direction.
“…”
Su Jin was feeling a little annoyed at the moment. She had been so low-key, so why was she still being targeted?
What the hell is the dean? Otherwise, just feed him to the human flowers.
Nie Qing, standing nearby, looked around and then over there with a puzzled look on his face. He wondered if these people could finish their words at once.
"Why are you telling us this? If I'm not mistaken, you are the commander of this base, right?" Lu Hao asked.
"Tell me why you are here, and I will tell you why"
Lian Jiyue replied.
Lu Hao looked at Su Jin. Although telling Lian Jiyue the purpose of their trip would be very risky, it could be seen from Lian Jiyue's actions and words that he was not in cahoots with the research institute. Moreover, the naked ice man whom they had rescued on the way had also said that the base director of E City was just an empty title, and the real power of the base lay in the research institute.
Thinking of this, Lu Hao told Lian Jiyue that they were looking for Dr. Pei.
