Jiang Zheyu didn't get angry but smiled. He raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled.
"So letting you go makes you friends, while surrounding you makes you enemies. How am I supposed to know if you're part of a gang? If you are, releasing you would be like setting fire to the mountains, wouldn't it?"
Ye Yunxi frowned. Why was this person so difficult to deal with? She had already told him that they were forcibly captured, so why was he now saying that they were a gang?
She said coldly, "Are you deaf or can't you understand? We've already said we were captured. If we were a gang, would we have killed the Wushan Gang members right in front of you?"
Gu Qingqing also wanted to seek justice for them, and said in an annoyed tone.
"Exactly. If we were a gang, we should have killed you, not them. Besides, we're here to find someone. We wouldn't be stuck here if we weren't forced into this situation."
Jiang Zheyu said "Oh," and then asked, "Are you looking for someone? Where are you from? Who are you looking for? Could you tell me?"
Before Ye Yunxi and the others could speak, Gu Qingqing immediately spoke up.
“We’re from the First Base. As for who we’re looking for, we don’t need to tell you.”
Jiang Zheyu recalled that Li Yan had told him some time ago that several young people, including men and women, and a dog had come out of their base.
These were indeed young people, but they didn't have a dog with them. So, I tentatively asked them a question.
"The First Base? Do you know Li Yan from the First Base?"
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng looked at each other, but neither of them answered his question.
Chen Zhe said in a low voice, "How does this guy know Captain Li? Is he his enemy? If so, what do we do?"
Fu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Let's see what this person wants first. If he's an enemy, then we'll have no choice but to kill them all."
"When we were raiding the armory earlier, we saw some bombs. If all else fails, we'll use them."
They nodded. This was a last resort, and they wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary.
Jiang Zheyu saw them whispering and guessed that they knew Li Yan, so he smiled and said.
"If you know Li Yan, then you can rest assured that Jiang Zheyu and Li Yan are not enemies, but friends and brothers on the battlefield."
A few days ago, Li Yan called my contacts and told me that if a few young people and a dog passed by my place, I should treat them well and say that they were his friends who had saved his life.
They also told me their names, something like Ye Yunxi, Fu Heng, Gu Qingqing, Chen Zhe, and so on. I wonder if you are the people Li Yan mentioned? They also have a golden retriever with them.”
Fu Heng glanced at Ye Yunxi, and seeing her nod, he turned to Jiang Zheyu and said.
"I am Fu Heng, as Li Yan mentioned, and this lady next to me is Ye Yunxi."
Upon hearing their admission, Jiang Zheyu immediately changed his expression, smiling amicably.
“It really is you! Then we are on the same side. Don’t worry. If you don’t believe me, I can talk to Li Yan and you will believe me.”
As Jiang Zheyu spoke, he had his subordinate bring over the address book and immediately contacted Li Yan.
Li Yan received a call from Jiang Zheyu and spoke in quick succession.
"Hey, Xiaoyu, what's up?"
Jiang Zheyu smiled and said, "Of course I need to talk to you. Those young people you mentioned last time have come to my side, but they're with the Wushan Gang, not our Yueqi Gang."
There's been some misunderstanding between us, so I'm contacting you to reassure them.
Li Yan paused for a moment and then said, "Point the communicator at them and turn the volume up."
Jiang Zheyu did as instructed, pointing the contact list at Ye Yunxi and the others, and immediately a familiar voice came from it.
“Yunxi, Fu boy, I’m Li Yan. Don’t worry about Jiang Zheyu, we’re brothers, we went to the battlefield together before. I was the one who told him that if you pass through here, he should treat you well.”
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng only realized that what Jiang Zheyu said was true after they heard Li Yan's voice.
Fu Heng said loudly, "Captain Li, this is Fu Heng. We heard everything you said. Thank you for your kindness."
Li Yan heard Fu Heng's voice and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, Fu boy, as long as you're safe, that's all that matters. Go stay with Xiao Yu for a couple of days. If you need anything, you can talk to him; he might be able to help you."
"Okay, thank you, Captain Li!"
Jiang Zheyu hung up the contact list and spoke to them.
"Now you believe me, right? You can come with me and stay at my place for a couple of days. You can tell me anything you need to do, and I'll help you analyze it."
Fu Heng nodded and whispered to Xuan Yu, "Xuan Yu, go into the cave and release Yun Zi so they can see her."
Xuan Yu walked generously into the cave and released Yun Zi and the wolf cub from his spatial dimension.
Fu Heng said loudly to Jiang Zheyu.
"Wait a moment, our men will go and bring the dog out."
Jiang Zheyu nodded, and after a minute or two, Xuan Yu brought out Yunzi and the wolf cub.
Jiang Zheyu smiled and said this after seeing the golden retriever.
"Come with me, let's sit down and talk."
Fu Heng and the others followed Jiang Zheyu to the Yueqi Gang. They didn't say anything on the way and just silently followed Jiang Zheyu.
More than ten minutes later, they arrived at the territory of the Moon Qilin Gang. This Moon Qilin Gang territory was also a large cave, with a spacious surrounding area.
Jiang Zheyu led them into the cave.
Jiang Zheyu introduced them as they walked.
"This is our Moon Kirin Gang. Don't worry about the people here; they are all soldiers from the base. We have soldiers from every base, and some of them trained before the apocalypse. They've come to join our team."
Hearing this, Ye Yunxi asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Since you are soldiers, why do you call yourselves the Moon Kirin Gang? Isn't that just like those private bases?"
Jiang Zheyu paused for a moment, then continued.
"We are a rather special team. The organization said that after the apocalypse began, many ill-intentioned people started to set up private bases, specifically to capture people to work for them, forcibly abduct women, and rob other people's supplies, etc."
So the organization secretly sent us to organize an army, to dress us in our own clothes, and to disguise us as a private base. The purpose was to stop those private bases from doing bad things.
It's like the Wushan Gang; they committed murder, and our plan was to kill their two leaders. Unfortunately, they're very cunning; they only dare to stay inside and defend, not dare to launch a full-scale attack.
Jiang Zheyu smiled as he said this.
"I just overheard you talking to their people about how you killed their leader. Is that true?"
"Yes, we outmaneuvered them and killed them."
Fu Heng didn't tell Jiang Zheyu that the leader of the Wushan Gang had been hidden away by them.
"That would be very good, so as to prevent them from continuing to do evil."
Jiang Zheyu was overjoyed upon hearing the news; the Wushan Gang had finally been wiped out. Most of their underlings were also dead. Those who survived were sent to other private bases.
