After the news of the parasite invading the human brain and thinking and sending messages on behalf of humans spread in the underground base, although not many details were revealed, it still caused quite a stir in the base.
Many people were in a panic and gathered at the door of the base's conference room, wanting to get clarification.
Zhang Tian was one of the persons in charge and was surrounded several times. The first few times were fine because everyone was not unreasonable, but later a group of women in heavy clothes but with exquisite makeup came inexplicably.
A group of women surrounded the door and refused to give in, determined to get an answer from the driver.
"We came here to find out! What the hell is going on?! Why can those parasites get into the human brain and control our movements and speech?"
"Isn't this pure bullshit? In the past few years since the apocalypse, we've seen plenty of zombies and encountered plenty of viruses, but we've never heard of this kind of nonsense!"
"Give us an explanation! You're not planning to go to headquarters and spread these lies on purpose, so that most people will be scared to stay in this damned shabby base!"
"That's right! I suspect they did it on purpose! They all want to go to headquarters and enjoy the luxury and wealth. I've long disliked the person in charge of this base! They're a bunch of selfish villains!"
…
Another group of people stood on the side of the base leader. When they heard these words, they became even more angry and retorted without holding back for a moment.
They quarreled fiercely.
Zhang Tian was sandwiched between them, her face grim. "You're going too far! The leaders of the base haven't had a good rest for several days because of this sudden incident. They haven't even had a meal. They've been trying to find a solution for everyone and contacting another base that's under reconstruction. And you actually say such things."
"What's wrong with saying these things? Isn't it the truth?"
"Hasn't this kind of thing happened often before? The apocalypse has arrived, and there are still natural disasters outside. Supplies are scarce. If you had a chance to survive, you definitely wouldn't tell us!"
"Go away! We need to go in and have a thorough interview with the leaders of this base to find out what's going on!"
"Get out of here!"
Zhang Tian stopped them: "That's an important conference room, and several leaders are in a meeting there. If you mess around again, don't blame me for being rude."
"Come on! Who's afraid of who?"
"Kill us if you dare!"
"Attack! The person in charge of the base is bullying and is going to attack ordinary people!"
When Zhang Tian's men came over and saw a group of women, they all felt a little headache.
"Sweetie, these women seem to have escaped from the dark..."
Zhang Tian: "What?"
"That's what it is, doing that in the black man's annex..."
Zhang Tian: "I understand."
She looked at the dozen or so women, her eyes slightly complicated for a moment.
The leading woman also saw Zhang Tian.
Li Liwei moved forward, a burning cigarette between her fingers, the smell pungent. She leaned forward slightly, staring at Zhang Tian's face for a few seconds, then chuckled: "I was wondering why you looked so familiar just now, it turns out it was you."
She crossed her arms and said slowly, "Weren't you running with the team before? Everyone was the same. I didn't expect you to suddenly transform into the captain of the base."
"Oh, what was that man who supported you before... I can't quite remember, I just remember he was a lightning-type psychic. Oh, right, I remember now, he seems to be Zhao Shunyan, right? There were quite a lot of men in his team. It must have been quite difficult for you to be in that team at the time. With so many people, it's amazing that you were able to handle it."
Zhang Tian's eyes darkened.
"Madam, if you continue to say these meaningless words, I will ask you to leave."
Li Liwei covered her mouth and chuckled softly. "Oh my, are you angry because of shame? Is it possible that what I said is not true? Back then, Zhao Shunyan's team was quite famous. They committed many crimes, such as burning, killing, looting and abusing people. I heard that they also robbed many passers-by. You were also one of them. How come you can still sit in this position now? Is it possible that you were transferred because the base doesn't need people?"
Seeing Zhang Tian remained silent, she became even more aggressive: "Your hands are also stained with the blood of those innocent people. Why are you pretending to be fine? How are you better than us..."
"That's enough."
Zhang Tian glared at him fiercely.
Li Liwei blew out smoke rings, "Let us in. I'll go in and talk to your leader. We must get this opportunity to go to headquarters. But if you dare to stop me again, don't blame me for revealing everything about you following Zhao Shunyan before. Let everyone in the base know that you used to be just like us, easily giving in to men..."
"Li Liwei." Pei Xiqing quickly grabbed her arm and smiled at her before slowly saying, "You're going too far."
Li Liwei withdrew her hand and rolled her eyes at her: "Why are you here again? What bad luck."
Zhang Tianyi grabbed Pei Xiqing from behind and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. I'll just take her away and give her a good lesson. Don't bother yourself with this kind of thing."
She didn't know when Pei Xiqing came, but she probably came to discuss the matter at the headquarters. She didn't want Pei Xiqing to be wronged here.
"Why is it okay?" Pei Xiqing said with a smile, "He is also an old friend of mine."
Zhang Tian: “???”
Li Liwei also laughed: "Yes, that's right, we are old friends, but your sister and I are closer and have a better relationship. I don't have much in common with a woman like you who only knows how to talk about that on the internet."
"What?" Pei Xiqing asked, "What did you say?"
"What you did before, weren't you just like us now? Now we're forced by circumstances. We're willing to sacrifice ourselves to survive. What about you then? Weren't you just plain lonely and looking for a man?"
"Li Liwei, I'm not happy with what you said." Pei Xiqing stood between her and Zhang Tian, his eyes showing no fear at all, and even a hint of playfulness. "Everyone knows that selling your body to save your life is a good thing, but if you're proud of it, then your mind and values are a little abnormal."
"What do you mean?"
"Have you ever been to Heilongjiang?"
"Of course," Li Liwei said, "but I was forced into it. I've never been involved in other illegal industries."
"But don't you know? Prostitution, gambling, and drugs all come together. These are all connected and closely intertwined. If selling your body is honorable and should be promoted, then you're no different from those involved in the smuggling black industry."
Li Liwei: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't care about those messed up things. They have nothing to do with me. As long as I can survive, no matter what path I take, it doesn't matter. Besides, what qualifications do you have to criticize me?"
She looked Pei Xiqing up and down and said, "Didn't you rely on men to get here? Otherwise, who would you be without men?"
"If you hate me so much simply because of Pei Yanting, I can understand, but you said something wrong." Pei Xiqing still smiled, "I'm luckier than you. I did rely on men, but I was loyal to them."
"you!!!"
Li Liwei's temples were twitching.
This woman!!! She did it completely on purpose!
Zhang Tian immediately came over and was about to pull Pei Xiqing to her side. "Ma'am, I'm warning you, if you keep talking, I'm really going to hit you. I'm never afraid of hitting women, but I'm not against hitting women either."
"You! If you dare to hit me, just try! I'm going to rush in today and have a good chat with your so-called leaders. Is it really that easy for a bunch of parasites to take over the headquarters, or are you just rejecting us from the bottom of your hearts and don't want us to go to the headquarters?"
