Chapter 44 The Truth Of The Situation

"Haha... So, when will you start your exploration, Captain Jin?" Hua Meili teased.

Being teased by her like that somehow made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Eh... I decided to go and explore today. I and my team will go on a search for some supplies."

"Then, do you need someone to go with your team from my team?" Hua Meili could not help but ask.

Looking at Jin Hua's team, not like she was holding something against them but she really felt that they are too weak for her taste.

If somehow, they ever find themselves in trouble, who would save them?

"No, it's alright. My team and I are enough to go. No need to trouble the others." Jin Hua quickly rejected it.

"Then, are you riding a car?"

"Uhm... The car we used to get here was already ruined so I guess we need to walk to reach the city." Jin Hua sighed.

He thought of how far it would be if they were going to walk from the Mansion to the city. It would probably be hours of walking and they might not be able to be back so soon.

Thinking about this, he somehow regretted building his Mansion somewhere far away from the city.

If he only knew that a day like this would come, he would have built his Mansion on the city's square.

"With all the Mutants around?"

Hua Meili raised an eyebrow amused hearing what he had said.

She would not find it funny if only he was like her, she did once run all the way to the city on foot during the night.

But listening to him say that he along with his group would travel on foot towards the city, the corner of her mouth tug into a strange smile.

"What Mutants?" Jin Hua asked puzzled.

He had never heard of Mutants before, are there other creatures other than Zombies around?

"It's the term I used to call zombies, Mutants." Hua Meili explained seeing his puzzled expression.

Jin Hua was then immediately enlightened after hearing her explanation.

"Oh... That's a peculiar way of calling Zombies. But, that is a better term than Zombie. Well, about the car we don't have one."

Hua Meili looked at him like she is looking at a fool, the walk to the city is miles away. They are going to be Mutant snacks before they reach the city!

"Jin ge.... It could not be helped then. Du Hexi, go with them." Hua Meili sighed helplessly.

She then tossed the key to the WC to Du Hexi. With him around, she is sure that nothing bad will befall them.

"It's alright, we have enough manpower." 

Jin Hua quickly rejected thinking that she wanted the butler to go with the team.

But he could not help but look curiously at the key that Hua Meili toss to the 'old' butler, then retracted his gaze.

"Who says Hexi is fighting? Hexi will only be responsible for driving."

Hua Meili laughed knowing what he is thinking about.

"Driving? Who's car?" Jin Hua asked puzzled.

He was sure that the car they had driven was long ago in ruins and had already been thrown far far away.
