Chapter 192
by REX-NOVELISTSHearing Lu Shouzheng’s roar, these people showed no sign of backing down.
“What? Does the base chief want to deny everything now? Captain Lei killed zombies and saved all the survivors of Silver Bay base! He only killed a few people, is it necessary for you to cling to it so tightly? The way you’re talking now makes us feel disheartened. If we feel disheartened, we’ll lose our sense of belonging to Silver Bay base, and we’ll feel like this isn’t our home. In that case, if there’s a zombie horde or mutated zombie attack in the future, we’ll have to seriously consider whether or not we should take action!”
Listening to their blatant threats, Lu Shouzheng was so angry that he almost couldn’t stand. He was the base chief in name only!
Lin Qianhuan stood aside, listening quietly, the smile on her lips gradually deepening.
“What? Silver Bay Gardens can’t function without you? Don’t think too highly of yourselves, it makes you look ridiculous. There are thousands upon thousands of awakened humans with abilities, are only you able to kill zombies?”
Her words were like a disco in the bald man’s head. He roared angrily and pointed his finger at her nose. “What are you saying, you stinky bitch? What are you, daring to yell in front of me? You think you can run rampant in the apocalypse just because you have these two men backing you up? You’re dreaming!”
Yi Hao, as if he had heard a joke, turned to look at Lin Qianhuan. “I’m really something, actually backing you up.”
Lin Qianhuan raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and sighed softly, “Who knows? But his mouth is really stinky. Yi Hao, hit him.”
Mental tentacles shot out, and the bald man became the second Lei Yong, being slapped in the face with a ruler in full view of everyone. His eyes were bloodshot as he tried to resist, but to no avail.
With him as an example, no one dared to speak ill of Lin Qianhuan again.
“I just got home and ran into you guys. I don’t know if I’m unlucky or you’re unlucky.” Lin Qianhuan took a big gulp of mineral water, her gaze sweeping over everyone, full of pressure.
The crowd that had surrounded the three of them instantly dispersed, with none of their original momentum left.
“After all, I’m not the base chief. Your life or death still needs to be decided by him, I can’t control too much.” She turned to look at Lu Shouzheng, took the ruler from Yi Hao’s hand, and stuffed it into his hand. “Of course, I also hope that the base chief will think carefully about whether keeping them is good or bad for Silver Bay Gardens.”
Lu Shouzheng took the bloody ruler, his fingertips trembling slightly. Although Lin Qianhuan had been gone for a month, he had never forgotten her iron-blooded methods. Those who had provoked her were beheaded in the street. Now, Lin Qianhuan was willing to hand the ruler over to him, giving him the power of choice. She was giving him, the base chief, some face.
Lu Shouzheng watched Lin Qianhuan turn to leave, and quickly reached out to call her. “Miss Lin, you can just go in, you don’t have to wait in line.”
“I’m just an ordinary survivor, why the special treatment? You go take care of your own business, don’t worry about me.” Lin Qianhuan waved her hand at him and walked back into the line.
But now, who dared to treat her as an ordinary survivor?
Qiao Muzhi stood in front of Lin Qianhuan, feeling a chill down her back, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She thought she was a gentle and obedient little girl, who would have thought she was the famous Lin Qianhuan? Now it was all over, she had actually shown off in front of a big shot. She would never be able to show her face again.
Lin Qianhuan, however, didn’t seem to notice her abnormality, and reached out to pat her shoulder. “Sister Qiao, which villa do you live in?”
Qiao Muzhi was startled by her pat and stood up straight instantly. “Villa 37! Miss Lin, please don’t call me Sister Qiao, just call me Muzhi.”
She smiled awkwardly, but then heard Lin Qianhuan say again, “Then do you know Huang Cuiliu? A strength-based evolved human, she should also live in Villa 37.”
Qiao Muzhi paused when she heard this, then nodded frantically: “I know her, Sister Huang is very famous throughout the Silver Bay base. She is the most powerful strength-based evolved human, none of the men can beat her.”
Lin Qianhuan was a little surprised, she had only been gone for a month, and Huang Cuiliu was already so famous? She nodded and didn’t say anything more, just standing there waiting for the line to move forward.
Without Lei Yong’s interference, the registrar was also replaced, and the efficiency instantly improved a lot. Before long, the group arrived in front of Villa 36.
Lin Qianhuan stopped in front of the door, feeling as if the air was fresher. It was good to be home, it made people feel comfortable. She was about to step forward to open the door when she heard He Lu call out in surprise: “Number 5! You’re back!”
Following her gaze, Lin Qianhuan indeed saw the long-unseen Number 5. He was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, and looked very clean and capable, with no sign of being unkempt. It was clear that he had been living well during this time.
But Number 5 seemed to not see them, opening his arms to hug He Lu, carrying her around in a circle like a child. “I’m back, I’m sorry, I made you wait too long.” He lovingly took out a handkerchief to help He Lu wipe her sweat: “Why are you so hot? Don’t you know how to take care of yourself when I’m not around?”
