There were four people in the room bound with metal. One of them was out of breath due to his injuries.
Ignoring that one, Luo Xun began a simple interrogation. Of course, it would not be easy, the other side was more than aware that they had killed all but them. This could not be good and they were unlikely to leave this alive. Therefore, the three prisoners grit their teeth and were not willing to reveal information.
So, Zhang Yi squinted, smiled like a flower and brought them one by one into a black room…
“How long do you think he’s going to take?” Luo Xun looked up at the stars in the sky.
“I don’t know, it depends on how long he wants to.” Li Tie began to idly bat at mosquitoes – they were present after the apocalypse but fortunately were not zombies, otherwise, people would not be able to survive. Of course, there were mutant ones, they had been outside for the night when they encountered a man-sized mosquito. Everyone had nightmares when they tried to sleep.
“Hey, shouldn’t you go in and check? In case he decides to…the hat on your head…” Han Li elbowed Wang Duo’s waist.
Wang Duo stared at Han Li with contemptuous eyes and was too lazy to answer the question. He did not want to accompany him but the problem was…he was afraid that he would throw up last night’s meal. He knew his lover, who knew what would happen if that person was in good spirits.
Half an hour later, Zhang Yi came back with an unsatisfied expression.
“How did it go?”
“They’re all dead.” Zhang Yi waved a hand.
Luo Xun was speechless for a while, this was really…”What info did you get?”
Zhang Yi explained, “The wind user could probe our whereabouts, he is already dead. There are nine people in the outside five cars who only waited for three hours. If they did not get a signal, they would return to the base.” His eyes flashed with excitement, “They are a part of a larger team and these were their sideliners. They saw our team selling dried non-mutated vegetables. In the past, they heard that we had sold crops to select teams and guessed we had a base outside. They wanted to find a way to grow non-mutated plants so…” Zhang Yi playfully shrugged as he looked at Luo Xun.
The meaning in Zhang Yi’s eyes was obvious, they could only blame Luo Xun for being too capable. Right? Being able to grow a bunch of non-mutated vegetables so they had a lot to sell disregarding what they had at home! No wonder the other side was eyeing their team – there were so many teams in the stall, why would they get targeted? It turned out their captain was too capable.
Luo Xun was speechless and continued to look at the stars twinkling in the cloudy sky. After a while he turned to Zhang Yi, “What is there contact signal?” He just remembered and there were cars waiting outside. Now that it came to this, it was best to pull out the root.
“Three red fireballs in a row.” Zhang Yi answered, “Although I don’t think they’re going to lie…it might be fake.” Although all three men said the same thing, he still had some doubts.
Luo Xun understood but still wanted to try since success would solve the current problem. If it did not work, they’ll immediately change their position.
