Zheng Zihao was new to the area and didn't know where to ask. He first inquired with the people inside the base and got a general idea.
I know nothing about the Beijing base and don't know how to find it.
Cheng Shaolin had told him about his situation; otherwise, Zheng Zihao would have been like a dizzy fly, completely at a loss.
I know the basic information, but I don't know if Cheng Shaolin's parents are still working in government departments.
Now everyone is at the base; there's no such thing as not living at the base.
As long as it remains at the Beijing base, there is hope of finding it.
Zheng Zihao is still very confident; it just takes some time.
I asked the people at the base for Cheng Shaolin's parents' names, and to my surprise, someone actually knew them.
This made Zheng Zihao extremely happy.
I was prepared to spend a lot of time and effort searching for a solution, but I received a message on the very first day. I'm so lucky!
"Hey, do you really know him? Is his name really Cheng Feiyue and He Yunzhen?"
"Yes, his family lives in the base. His family knows about it, it's a big family."
Zheng Zihao: "...?"
"So, where do they live?"
"Why are you asking this?" The staff member looked at Zheng Zihao suspiciously, wondering why he was asking this.
"Oh, I'm here on someone's behalf to deliver a message to them."
Zheng Zihao didn't say much, just gave a casual answer.
"Oh, so you still deliver messages now?"
"Yeah, I just happened to be here, so I was just delivering a message. It's nothing important, just something I did on the side."
The staff member smiled, seemingly very interested, and leaned closer to Zheng Zihao, asking, "It seems you're quite kind-hearted. Who are you delivering the message to?"
When this person approached him and asked this question, Zheng Zihao was taken aback for a moment. He didn't say anything directly, but laughed it off and said, "Haha, by the way, these days there's no such thing as being kind or not."
Seeing that he didn't answer, the man wanted to keep asking.
Zheng Zihao sensed something was off about the man, so he chuckled and made an excuse that he had something else to do before leaving.
He was suspicious and didn't know what was going on. He spent another two days wandering around the base, asking several people and subtly inquiring about many things.
It turns out that Cheng Shaolin's family has some influence at the base.
His father is still alive; he used to be in the military and held a fairly high rank.
Now the old man is in charge at home. Although he doesn't have much power at the base, he still has prestige.
The old man's former subordinates now hold various positions at the base, some of which are quite prestigious.
Cheng Shaolin's uncle and his son are both very active now.
His father previously worked in an administrative position, which is different from his uncle's family, who were in the military.
Cheng Shaolin is not at the base right now; his uncle's family is in charge, or more precisely, his older cousin Cheng Shaoheng is in charge.
To be more precise, the Cheng family is now grooming Cheng Shaolin's cousin, Cheng Shaoheng.
Chen Shaoheng's personality is very different from Cheng Shaolin's.
If Cheng Shaolin was a gentleman with profound knowledge and wisdom, then Cheng Shaoheng was arrogant and disdainful of others.
Since the apocalypse, Chen Shaoheng has been building his base for so long that he has long since secured a place for himself.
Hearing someone inquiring about Cheng Feiyue, one can't help but suspect there's something fishy going on.
Regardless of which side was paying attention, Zheng Zihao couldn't help but be more cautious.
It was originally intended to repay Cheng Shaolin for saving my life, but I can't let it backfire and cause a bad thing with good intentions.
Zheng Zihao got the general idea and stopped asking around. Who knew if asking too many questions would attract attention? After all, the Beijing base was so large, with various factions entangled, and as a newcomer, it wouldn't be good to offend any of them.
Through inquiries, Zheng Zihao spent some resources to find out the location of the Cheng family. After several days of personal surveillance and confirmation, he finally seized an opportunity to meet Cheng Feiyue as he was leaving the house.
Zheng Zihao followed cautiously for a long time, but was caught red-handed by Cheng Feiyue.
"Who are you? What are you doing following me?"
Zheng Zihao looked Cheng Feiyue up and down before introducing himself: "Your name is Cheng Feiyue?"
Cheng Feiyue looked at Zheng Zihao suspiciously, then nodded and replied, "Yes, I am Cheng Feiyue."
"Oh, is your wife's name He Yunzhen?"
Cheng Feiyue frowned. "What do you want? Why are you asking these questions?"
Zheng Zihao didn't answer, but continued to ask, "Is your son named Cheng Shaolin? Is he currently outside the base in Beijing?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Feiyue could no longer remain calm. His face tightened, and he gritted his teeth as he asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"
Zheng Zihao said with a smile, "Answer my question first, and then I'll tell you the answer you want to know."
Chen Feiyue kept a cold face and did not want to answer the stranger's question.
Zheng Zihao's question was actually very simple; it wasn't a secret at the base, and most people knew about it.
"Since I've already said my name is Cheng Feiyue, you should know perfectly well enough that I don't need to waste any more words. I don't know who you are, what your intentions are, or what you want from me. What do you want with me?"
Zheng Zihao didn't expect Cheng Shaolin's father to be so cautious, but he was pretty sure that this person was indeed Cheng Shaolin's father.
Actually, judging from his appearance, Cheng Shaolin does resemble his father somewhat, but not by much. Zheng Zihao just needs to confirm it.
Zheng Zihao extended his hand. "Hello, my name is Zheng Zihao. I came from Yingzhou Base. I inquired about you before, and the impression I got from the photos wasn't very good. So, I'm being careful. Sorry."
