Duan Xiaolin got straight to the point: "The Marshal probably won't gain anything from cooperating with a parasite."
Fu Yan's expression changed slightly, so slightly that it was imperceptible. He just raised his hand to let everyone else in the meeting room leave.
After a while, he and Duan Xiaolin were the only two people left in the huge conference room.
Fu Yan placed his arm on the table, revealing the expensive watch on his wrist. He frowned slightly and asked, "When did you know this?"
"It starts with the appearance of a village outside the ghost market."
Fu Yan's eyes were sharp, and he was a little annoyed: "Even if I built a paradise specifically for you and your woman, it can't satisfy you?"
Duan Xiaolin laughed: "What a pity..."
A faint trace of regret flashed in his eyes, "But thank you for your kindness."
Fu Yan: "It seems that she took the first step."
Otherwise, Duan Xiaolin would never appear at the headquarters again.
He customized a safe house for them outside the Ghost Market. That area was an uncontaminated area deliberately left by the headquarters when they were clearing out the zombies. It was also the only bargaining chip they had to negotiate with Duan Xiaolin.
His daughter's life is still in his hands.
The future of the base is also controlled by him.
"It's just that her zombie identity can't be known to more people. I'm afraid even she herself can't foresee the consequences of taking this step." He lowered his head and laughed sarcastically, "Jingyu was caught by you because you knew her identity."
"You can rest assured that she won't die in the short term," Duan Xiaolin said calmly, "I won't reveal her whereabouts until the matter is resolved."
She won't die... This is the worst possible outcome. Fu Yan couldn't help rubbing his red eyes. He knew Duan Xiaolin's methods best. Even if Jingyu didn't die, she would probably have paid a heavy price.
He didn't know how she knew that the woman was a zombie, and how she fell into this state and fell into Duan Xiaolin's hands... For a while, he was powerless and could only try to negotiate with Duan Xiaolin and reach some kind of consensus with the nine-headed parasite.
"Are you so sure that I won't tell anyone that she's a zombie?"
Isn't a desperate move a means of action?
Duan Xiaolin twitched the corners of his lips slightly: "Then you can try."
He turned on the airborne recorder.
A light screen appeared.
The scene shows Xia Jingyu buried deep in a bloody and filthy pile of corpses. It is a huge deep pit. She wants to climb up, but every time she crawls a few meters with difficulty, she will be hit by corpses thrown from above. Her body falls down and falls into the endless pile of corpses again.
Fu Yan slammed his fist on the table: "Duan Xiaolin!"
His white hair and beard stood up.
In fact, he is no longer young. His external age is just an excuse. His aging is not entirely the result of working hard for the base.
"The Marshal should be familiar with these corpses." Duan Xiaolin pointed out without giving any face, "Compared to you feeding parasites and killing mutants to train assassins, I'm still behind."
Fu Yan clenched his fists: "I think you are even worse than that."
The man chuckled.
No comment on what he said.
A few seconds later, Fu Yan's face stiffened and the atmosphere around him became gloomy.
"Instead of sneaking around with those beasts, why not give me the crystal core? I'll ensure you stay in this position for the next ten years without any worries."
Fu Yan paused, then laughed again: "Ten years? This shouldn't be your real ability."
He added, "With the advancement of technology and the genetic modification of various parasitic viruses, human lifespan has been greatly extended. I think it will be more than ten years."
As he spoke, he had someone place the last five crystal cores in front of Duan Xiaolin.
Duan Xiaolin understood: "Then I'll let you sit here as long as you want."
Fu Yan laughed louder and louder.
But the smile was full of bitterness and helplessness.
The man hurried out of the headquarters building and the figure waiting outside handed him a sign.
