Zhang Yang was puzzled, but he didn't say anything and followed the others forward.
She didn't speak until they turned the corner just before being seen by those people.
"I think I just saw Xiao Xiang. I was amazed to see her smiling so gently and brightly as she talked to the child. It was truly an eye-opener."
Zhang Yang chuckled and continued, "Boss, we've already avoided them. What's next? Should we strike directly or proceed stealthily?"
Jiang Ruan kept flipping through the personal information statistics charts that Xiao Yu had compiled from her spatial storage.
Since the space was upgraded, Xiaoyu seems to have had her meridians opened up, and she has gained some functions that allow her to spy on the information of people nearby.
Although it only contains simple personal information, it is still invaluable.
"Let's go quietly, but we'll start here first. There's an expert in the construction industry here, so we need to help him first."
Jiang Ruan didn't look up, but just rubbed her head, which felt a little uncomfortable and was in pain for some reason.
"Architectural expert?" Duan Yu pondered the words, unable to understand why they were looking for him.
“The bases in Xizhou are already full. If the news is true, we will definitely see countless zombies swarming in soon. At that time, the experts who are stationed outside will have no chance to resist them.” Jiang Ruan put down her things and said with a serious expression.
“I think I understand now. You mean the base is full and these people have nowhere to go. We need to find them another place to live, but that requires the help of architects, right?”
Jiang Yan carefully sorted out his thoughts and ideas. He felt that the method was correct, but it was too difficult to put into practice.
Putting aside the size of the population, just finding a good location and building houses there as quickly as possible is obviously impossible.
He couldn't understand how Jiang Ruan, who was always calm and intelligent, could have such a thought.
"I'm sorry, although I've had that idea, I also know that it's difficult to put into practice. We can only wait until we've dealt with most of the zombies later."
What we need to do now is clear out a new area inside the base, or expand the outer electric fence or similar structures, so that we can accommodate more people by extending the perimeter slightly.
Jiang Ruan was amused by Jiang Yan's words and quickly explained.
“But the base is already full. How could we possibly clear out some space to build rooms for these people to live in? Even if we had just a few days, we simply couldn’t build that many houses. These people would probably just have to stay here and wait to die.”
Jiang Yan had just felt a sliver of hope, but then the thought of this matter made her feel dejected again, realizing the difficulty of taking action.
Jiang Yan knew that Jiang Ruan originally intended to rescue these people to increase her own merit and thus raise her supernatural abilities to a new level, but undeniably, this method was not feasible.
"Hey, Jiang Yan, what you're saying is a bit much. How can you just wait to die? With such a pessimistic mindset, how can you cooperate with our boss's proactive plans?" Zhang Yang was indignant after hearing Jiang Yan's words. He felt that Jiang Ruan was right.
"What do you mean by that!" Just as Zhang Yang was about to argue with Jiang Yan, Duan Yu stood in front of Jiang Yan, his voice somewhat cold as he protected the person behind him.
Knowing he couldn't beat Duan Yu and had been humiliated, Zhang Yang turned to Jiang Ruan and said, "Boss, I don't care what they say, I think your method is feasible. But you have to tell us the details of how to do it and what we should do now."
“Naturally, we need to find architectural experts, any number of them, and bring them here,” Jiang Ruan replied, her eyes firm and unwavering.
“Okay, let’s go find them now! We’ll check each piece of information you gave us one by one, and we should be able to find the architectural expert you mentioned soon.” Zhang Yang said as he hurried out to set off, his steps quick, as if he couldn’t wait to begin the mission.
However, Jiang Ruan stopped him without hesitation. She stretched out her arm, blocking Zhang Yang's path, her gaze calm and composed as she looked at him. Her expression remained unchanged, yet it revealed an undeniable resolve.
Zhang Yang stopped and looked at Jiang Ruan with a puzzled expression, thinking she had changed her mind again. He asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly and said in a serious tone, "Don't rush, why are you being so hasty? We need to develop a detailed plan first. Acting blindly may waste time and energy, and could even lead to wrong results."
Zhang Yang nodded, indicating that he understood Jiang Ruan's concerns. He knew that Jiang Ruan was always cautious and would not take risks easily.
So the two of them pulled Duan Yu and the other man to sit down and began to carefully study the information they had. They analyzed every clue, discussed possible paths and methods, and tried to find the most effective strategy to find this architectural expert.
After in-depth discussions, they finally devised a detailed plan. Jiang Ruan said to Zhang Yang, "Execute this plan, but remember to stay vigilant and be aware of any potential situations. Contact me immediately if you discover anything."
Zhang Yang took the plan, his heart filled with confidence. He knew that with Jiang Ruan's guidance and support, they would definitely be able to complete the mission successfully.
With unwavering determination, Zhang Yang stepped out of the room, ready to launch the search operation as planned.
Jiang Ruan remained where she was, continuing to consider the next steps. She knew that finding this architectural expert was crucial to the success of the entire rescue operation, and she had to ensure everything went perfectly.
Zhang Yang, bundled up tightly and changing his voice, went out. Duan Yu and Jiang Yan followed behind him, like pageboys accompanying their young master on his studies.
Just before leaving, Duan Yu stopped in his tracks, turned to look at Jiang Ruan, and asked a question that had been on his mind for a long time.
"Be careful. Xiao Xiang doesn't seem as innocent and naive as she appears. There's more than just her father behind her; there might be someone unknown to us."
Feeling the care from her teammates, Jiang Ruan felt a warm glow in her heart and nodded in agreement. "Duan Yu, you seem a bit gentler than when I first met you. It seems this is all thanks to Jiang Yan."
Duan Yu originally wanted to ask some other questions, but Jiang Ruan's words made him shy for a moment, so he gave up.
