By the next morning, the suicide squad had only recruited 47 people in addition to the military. There were a total of 300 military soldiers led by Cao Wei, all of whom were equipped with weapons and ready to go.
Before leaving, Chen Wan specifically told Yiyi, "Yiyi, be careful at the base and pay more attention to Keqing."
"I understand. If you have any questions, you can contact me in your mind at any time." Yiyi said with a smile.
"Okay." Chen Wan kissed the baby's face again before gathering at the square with Qin Ke and the others.
When Chen Wan and the others arrived, Wei Siyu and the others had also arrived. Their team was still assigned to an armored vehicle. The convoy slowly moved forward and headed towards Wukou Town.
Because the distance was very close, about forty minutes later, the convoy that Chen Wan and her group were in had entered the area of Wukou Town. However, unexpectedly, this place did not seem to be occupied by level three mutant animals, because the town was surprisingly quiet.
Cao Wei ordered the vehicles to form a circle as much as possible and keep an eye on the surrounding situation.
As time passed, everyone's mood became relaxed from being tense.
Chen Wan looked around with some concern. "It's too quiet. Something doesn't feel right."
"Well, I always feel like something is watching us in the dark. Let's be careful." Wei Siyu frowned and looked outside, the palms of his hands holding the gun were soaked with sweat.
Half an hour later, the streets outside were still calm. Cao Wei did not hastily send the soldiers to patrol around, but just quietly let the vehicles gather together and wait for the monsters.
There was also a lot of discussion in the first area on the other side. At noon, Keqing and Shitou were eating in the restaurant in the base, and they heard a lot of people around them talking.
"Hey, I've saved so many points, I need to spend them quickly. Commander Cao is going with us to fight the level 3 mutant animals this time. Maybe the first zone will be gone in a few days."
"Forget it. We finally found a place to stay. Will Commander Cao be okay?"
"This time, they're a pack of Level 3 mutant lions. Didn't you see how many soldiers returned from the military yesterday? And more than half of them are seriously injured. I think this is doomed."
As Shitou listened to the conversations around him, he gradually felt guilty and uneasy, and even the rice in his bowl didn't taste good anymore.
"Keqing, this mission is so dangerous. Do you think everyone will be okay?" Shitou asked with a frown.
"No
"Yes, and it's not your fault. Everyone makes different choices. This is the path Chen Wan and the others chose. Also, there's something I've wanted to say for a long time, but seeing how much you care about them, I've held it back." Ke Qing looked hesitant, as if she was pondering whether or not she should say this.
"Tell me, we are so close, what can't we say?" Shi Tou looked at Keqing and asked.
"In fact, you are the only male alpha with super powers in the team. Logically, you should be the captain. And now that Chen Wan and the others are out on a mission, we should sit together and discuss the candidate for deputy captain. That way, if something happens, there will be someone to make the decision. This is also for everyone's good. You are the best candidate for deputy captain." Ke Qing looked at Shi Tou with bright eyes, bringing her acting skills to the extreme.
"That's true. This way, if anything happens, I can help everyone solve it. But, wouldn't that be a bad idea? After all, Chen Wan and the others are still out there taking risks."
Shi Tou was a little hesitant. After the team came to the First District, the top leader of the First District also appreciated Wei Siyu and Chen Wan. When it came to them, they became members of Wei Siyu's team or Chen Wan's team. Obviously, he was also a well-known person, and in an ordinary team, the psychic was the core of the team. Why couldn't he be the team leader?
"What's wrong with this? We're also considering the team. Chen Wan and the others are gone, and Yiyi is a female beta. She doesn't seem to have any extraordinary abilities. Of course you have to take on this responsibility. Otherwise, do you still want to push this burden onto other girls?" Keqing smiled and joked.
"Yeah, I do need to take on this part of the responsibility, and it can also be regarded as helping Siyu and Chen Wan to guard the base. So, let's call Qiao Shirui and others to go to 301 together later, and we can discuss the deputy captain's matter." Shi Tou smiled and said, having already forgotten the fact that his teammates were still in the Wukou Town and their lives were uncertain.
"Yeah, that's right." Keqing smiled sweetly, but she was thinking that the mission in Wukou Town was so dangerous. Chen Wan and Wei Siyu might not even be able to come back alive, or they would be seriously injured if they could come back. By then, wouldn't Shitou still be able to sit firmly in the position of captain of this team?
The stone listened to her again, and from then on, wouldn't the stone listen to whatever she said? At that time, she could lie down comfortably in the first area and enjoy it.
After the two of them had their meal, Shitou called the high school students to go to 301 together. It was Jiang Wanning who opened the door. Jiang Wanning didn't expect Shitou to
They will come over, or they will hurry and let people in first.
"Is there something wrong?" Jiang Wanning asked.
Yiyi heard the noise and came out of the room holding the baby.
Shitou scratched his head, a little embarrassed to speak. Encouraged by Keqing's eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "I brought Li Yue and the others here because I want to get everyone together for a quick meeting. Can you please ask my uncle, aunt, and Qi Jing's two friends to come down?"
Jiang Wanning was stunned for a moment, but nodded, "Okay, I'll go call someone. You guys sit down and wait for me." Jiang Wanning took the key and went out to call someone.
Yiyi sat on the sofa by herself, holding the little one in her arms and playing with him. Several Huahuas also came over to them, rubbing against the little one and then rubbing against Yiyi and acting coquettishly.
Keqing was bored and wanted to go over and touch Dahua's fur, but Dahua dodged it and glared at Keqing, barking "woof woof woof" a few times, signaling Keqing not to touch it.
Keqing's face darkened, but she quickly regained composure and delicately hid in Shitou's arms. "I just wanted to pet it. I didn't mean any harm. Why is this dog so fierce?"
"This is Chen Wan's dog. Let's not touch it casually." Shi Tou was also a little embarrassed. He remembered that these dogs were quite docile. Why did they bark when they saw Ke Qing?
Yiyi saw it too, of course, but she acted as if she hadn't heard it and called out to Huahua, "Dahua, come here."
When Dahua heard Yiyi calling her, she was so happy that she ran over and wagged her tail. Yiyi moved Dahua's hair, and Dahua lay down comfortably at Yiyi's feet.
The suites were very close together, and Jiang Wanning called everyone over within a few minutes. "Everyone, find a place to sit first. Shitou and the others said they have something to discuss with you."
Ye Lan, Jiang Zhaoyuan and others sat on the sofa in the living room. Several younger generations also found places to sit. Finally, everyone's eyes fell on Shi Tou and Ke Qing, waiting for them to speak.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Shitou coughed lightly and composed his words before speaking. "The reason I've gathered everyone here today is to discuss something important. Chen Wan, Siyu, and the others have gone to Wukou Town, and we don't know what the situation is going to be over there. We have quite a few people left at the base, more than a dozen. I'm thinking we need a deputy captain here too. That way, if anything happens, the deputy captain can help everyone make decisions. What do you think?"
Everyone looked at each other, Yiyi and Jiang Wanning looked at each other, chuckled and asked: "So the deputy captain
Who should be in charge?"
There was a hint of teasing in her eyes, which made Shitou feel a little embarrassed.
Keqing spoke up for Shitou, "Of course Shitou should be the one. Among those left, Shitou and Yiyi are the only ones with superpowers. Shitou is an alpha male and can help everyone with more things. Yiyi also has to take care of the baby and doesn't have time to take care of the team. After considering all factors, Shitou is of course the most suitable."
After Keqing finished saying these words, the living room fell into silence. No one responded. Even the baby sitting in Yiyi's arms became quiet. The atmosphere became a little weird for a while.
After a few seconds, Yiyi burst out laughing.
Shitou frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at? We've thought so much about this, and it's for the good of everyone here."
"For everyone's good? I think you have been wanting to be the captain for a long time, right? Chen Wan and the others just left for the morning and you can't sit still. Their lives and deaths are uncertain outside, but you are here thinking about how to take the position as soon as possible. Let me guess, are you still thinking that it would be best if Chen Wan and the others don't come back? That way, you can directly take over the entire team and all the team's supplies?" Yiyi still had a smile on her face, and that smile was a bit ostentatious, making people dare not look directly at her.
"How could you possibly think that?" Ke Qing's eyes were red as she spoke. Sniffling, she continued, "How could we possibly hope that Chen Wan and the others wouldn't come back? We're just worried about everyone's safety. Commander Cao has also gone to Wukou Town. District One might soon be in chaos. Shitou is thinking of choosing a vice-captain for your sake."
"Really?" Yiyi looked at Keqing with interest, with a smile on her face but coldness in her eyes. The computer had already given an accurate analysis of what this woman said: "Green tea."
Yiyi didn't wait for Keqing to say anything else and continued, "I don't care whether others agree or not. Let me make it clear in advance that I only follow Chen Wan's orders. Others, even if the king of heaven comes, have nothing to do with me."
With Yiyi's introduction, everyone who had been afraid to speak began to express their opinions.
"It's the same for us old couple. Since Chen Wan is not around, we listen to my daughter and Yiyi. Thank you for your kindness." Ye Lan said with a smile.
"Us too. Kang Wan and I were rescued by Qi Jing and Chen Wan, and we listened to Yiyi." Li Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said. After all, they were not familiar with Shi Tou at all, so of course they had to stand on the side of the acquaintance.
Li Yue thought for a while and said, "Brother Shitou, why don't we not choose a captain? It sounds weird. When Sister Chen Wan and Sister Siyu were here, we hadn't actually decided on a captain or anything. So let's just forget it."!
