At that point, a man standing behind this man asked, “Can we come back whenever we want?”

Lin Wenwen smiled faintly, then nodded and replied, “Yes, but you need to ask for leave.”

The man looked at Lin Wenwen with hesitation, seemingly wanting to say something, but stopped on second thought.

“What other question do you have?” Lin Wenwen asked him.

Hearing that, the man responded with an embarrassed look, “Ugh… Can we leave early? Because we… we need food.”

Lin Wenwen paused slightly, then turned back to glance at the others.

Du Yuanxing said, “But we only have fifty people now. There’re not enough workers yet. Besides, the trip won’t be easy. It’ll take at least five hours to make a round trip. It’ll consume a large amount of gas to make this trip.”

Lin Hao and Lin Wenwen both nodded. They couldn’t possibly give these people food before the work started, so they would have to wait.

“How’ bout this?” said Lin Wenwen, “You can go back and ask other people if they want to join us. For every person you recruit, you’ll be paid with half a pound of flour… white flour. What do you say?”

Hearing her words, the five men had their eyes glowed brightly.

“Re-really?”

Lin Wenwen nodded, still carrying that faint smile.

Most of the superpowered people in the hall were standing aside and watching them dubiously.

After hearing Lin Wenwen’s positive answer, the few men who had filled the form left excitedly. Apparently, they had gone to find the other job-seekers.

Lin Wenwen and the others stayed in the Mission Hall for two hours. Except for the group of commoners, no one else came to them to apply for a job. Some people read the information on their signboard when passing by, then left with doubts.

On the other side, not long after Xiao Yunlong had sent Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing away, another visitor came to Wu Chengyue’s place.

“Chief, Chen Yuting is here to see you,” Xiao Licheng came in and reported.

Wu Chengyue was sitting on the couch, reading some files. Meng Yue was sitting on another couch, brushing Wu Yueling’s hair. The little girl was sitting on Meng Yue’s knees, with the gray rabbit in her arms. At that moment, she was feeding the rabbit a vegetable leaf.

However, the gray ball of fur refused to eat the leaf.

“Let him in.”

Within the recent three days, Wu Chengyue was actually pretty sure that Wu Yueling wasn’t taken away by bad people, because he had found Chen Yuting and learned about Lin Feng and his people, including that lady with sunglasses, who had disappeared after entering the base.

Soon, Chen Yuting walked in alone.

Wu Chengyue raised his head to look at him, then asked with surprise, “Why are you alone?” While speaking, he pointed at the armchair beside him.

Chen Yuting walked to the armchair, then sat down while replying, “Ran into Piao Gecang on my way here. We had a fight. My squad members are poisoned by his fire, so I dropped them in the hospital.”

Wu Chengyue was picking up an empty glass on the table to get Chen Yuting some water. Hearing the latter’s words, he frowned, then turned to look at him and asked, “Piao Gecang? Why did you and him become enemies?”

Chen Yuting thought for a moment, then said, “I guess he has found out about our relationship long ago. So, he has been bothering us with some small things.”

Wu Chengyue nodded, then handed him the glass of water and said, “Em, I remember he’s close with a woman in your squad. This time, you let her die outside. He can use that as an excuse indeed.”

Chen Yuting nodded knowingly and replied, “I’ve seen this coming. That woman could have come back safely, but she got herself killed. There’s no one else to blame for that.”

While speaking, he glanced at Wu Yueling and asked, “Did the lady with sunglasses send Ling Ling back?”

Wu Chengyue turned to look at Ling Ling while responded smilingly, “She showed up in my home when we were having lunch, and gave Ling Ling back to me.”

“That day, we didn’t see her while entering the base, so I thought she didn’t come in,” said Chen Yuting, “But to my surprise, she avoided all the detectors in the entrance and sneaked in. Why didn’t she just walk straight in with Lin Feng and the others?”

He didn’t know that Ling Qiao took Wu Yueling away because the little girl’s power was waking up, but he understood that she wouldn’t have taken Wu Yueling away for no reason.

Two days ago, Wu Chengyue suddenly found him and asked if he came back to the base with a short-haired, large-breasted lady who was wearing a hat and a pair of sunglasses.

He did come back with a lady like that, but didn’t enter the base with her.

After learning that Chen Yuting and his squad was going to work for that lady, Wu Chengyue asked him to tell whatever he knew about her. After that, Chen Yuting was told that his Chief’s little princess was kidnapped again. But this time, the one who took her away didn’t seem to want to harm her.

Chen Yuting knew that because Wu Chengyue seemed to worry less after hearing his description of that lady.

Wu Chengyue and Meng Yue both glanced at Chen Yuting with curiosity. “Eh? So, that woman in your squad must have done something that she shouldn’t be doing, right?” Wu Chengyue asked.

Chen Yuting nodded and replied, “The armed vehicle that we drove back to the base was lent to us by that lady with sunglasses. On our way back, Lu Ting got greedy. She asked one of our squad members who has spirit power to put us asleep, then tried to steal that vehicle. As a result, Miss. Lu killed her and her brother, Lu Changfeng.”

Wu Chengyue responded knowingly, “That Miss. Lu you’re talking about, she’s a tough one. You better not to offend her, or don’t blame me for being unable to help you.”

Chen Yuting quickly nodded. He had only spent one day or two with Miss. Lu, but already learned about her strong vibe, and how decisive she was. She was truly a dangerous being, and he didn’t even know exactly how powerful she was.

He asked Wu Chengyue curiously, “Chief, you seem to know Miss. Lu pretty well. How did you meet? Why did she take Ling Ling away without telling you?”

Wu Chengyue recalled that when meeting the female zombie for the first time, he gave her a thunder strike without thinking and pissed her off. As a consequence, she took his daughter far away, and he spent a long time chasing her.

Nothing bad happened when they saw each other the second time. She gave Ling Ling back to him unharmed, and taught him one thing—not all zombies in this world had lost their humanity and sanity.

The last time they met, he didn’t recognize her, as she had changed too much. Without using his superpower, he actually lost the fight with her, and bit her on a pretty private area of her body…

Thinking of that, Wu Chengyue couldn’t help but cover his forehead with his hand, feeling both amused and annoyed.

Then, he waved his hand and said to Chen Yuting, “Ah, no, she left a note to tell me, but I was too worried to think of it. Besides, I don’t know her well. I’ve only seen her a few times.”

Chen Yuting nodded, then said, “Ah, our squad is going to carry bricks for them this time. Chief, don’t you think that you should send more people to go with us? I’ve observed them, and I have found that they have plenty of food. They’ve been making great offers as well. I don’t know where they found all that food though.”

Wu Chengyue nodded, then picked up the two pages of the file he was reading earlier as he said, “You should know that they’re from the old Hades Base. The job they released in the Mission Hall is real. However, about the food you mentioned, Miss. Lu is in charge of that. She has plenty of ways to get great amounts of food. I plan to let her borrow these people from me. The winter is coming, so we should store as much food as possible. Otherwise, many more people in civilian areas will be starved to death, as they can’t get rich harvests out there during wintertime.”

Chen Yuting took over the pages from him, then glanced at him with surprise and said, “Where did she get so much food?”

Wu Chengyue smiled and answered his question, “She is able to collect food in zombie cities. And, she has a space, doesn’t she? Even I don’t have the courage to go to the center of Hangzhou city, but she can go there with no problems at all. Apart from that, I think she used to be an elite special-forces soldier, which means she has rich military knowledge. So, she knows where the government used to store food back in the old world. This time, they came to our base because they want to hire people to build a new base for them. We don’t know the location of their new base yet, but I think it will be nearby.”

Chen Yuting was shocked. He widened his eyes and asked, “Base? They’re going to build a new base? There were just a few of them! No wonder she said that we’re going to be construction workers. I guess they need us to build the fence wall, right?”

“That’s right,” said Wu Chengyue, “We thought Yuan Tianxing and Lin Feng are their leaders, but Miss. Lu seems to have a greater right of making decisions than them.”

Chen Yuting nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, and Miss. Lu is a strange person. She disappears all the time.

Wu Chengyue pointed at the two pages in his hands and responded, “Good! If you’re going, you should take these people with you, and manage them.”

Chen Yuting read the list on the pages. The names, powers, levels, genders, and home addresses of the three-hundred people were all listed.

Seeing that about thirty of those people had superpowers, Chen Yuting said with surprise, “Are you sending so many superpowered people? Aren’t you preparing to go out of the base again to collect supplies?”

Wu Chengyue nodded and said, “I don’t need so many people. In fact, I’m doing this mostly because I want to lend them a hand. After all, Miss. Lu has indeed done me a great favor this time.”

While speaking, he turned and glanced at Ling Ling.

Seeing his movement, Chen Yuting understood his meaning.

“I’ll go tell them about it this afternoon,” he said.

Wu Chengyue nodded, then stood up and said, “Let’s go together. I need to go to the Administration Hall in Region D.”

Then, he walked to Wu Yueling, bent over, and scooped her up while saying, “Ling Ling, let’s go out and take a walk.”

Meng Yue held the gray rabbit which had hopped out of Wu Yueling’s arms.

Wu Yueling put her arms around Wu Chengyue’s neck and simply glanced at him without making another response.

After that, they walked out of the building together.
