Gao Hua made his way toward his private office inside the comprehensive building.
There were nearly six hundred people in Shuize Base now. Though the campus was large, humans are social creatures who don’t like to stray too far, and some areas were closed off, so the survivors’ activities were mostly centered around the comprehensive building area.
Gao Hua had always adhered to Wang Tao’s words, making sure to walk where there were more people.
Upon seeing the comprehensive building, a sigh of relief escaped Gao Hua. He should be safe now.
There was even a moment when he felt Wang Tao might be overreacting. What if Shao Yong hadn’t noticed him?
But just then, Gao Hua’s hair stood on end!
He felt as if he were being targeted by a venomous snake!
This sensation was indescribable, his body trembling, stiffness overtaking him…
However, the sensation came and went quickly, as if it lasted less than a second before it completely disappeared!
It was as if it had all been an illusion.
Gao Hua’s steps were measured as he entered the comprehensive building.
Then suddenly, his legs gave out, and he leaned against the wall, his entire back soaked with sweat.
“It’s not an illusion, this is no illusion! It’s him, Shao Yong!”
Gao Hua shouted in his mind.
“Minister Gao? What’s wrong?”
A subordinate from the resource department saw Gao Hua’s pale face and quickly trotted over, asking with concern.
“I’m fine, maybe because I didn’t eat lunch, my stomach is a bit hungry. Go on with your work.”
Gao Hua waved his hand.
“Alright, Minister Gao.”
After the other person left, Gao Hua took a deep breath, and then he ascended the stairs to his office at an unhurried pace.
Once he reached his private office, he made sure there was no one inside and that all the windows were closed, then he quickly grabbed the walkie-talkie.
“I’m Gao Hua, requesting to connect with Commissioner Wang!”
Wang Tao’s walkie-talkie was generally accessible only to a few commissioners, Han Rui, and some staff members; others didn’t have the privilege. After all, as a commissioner, one of the seven highest-ranking officials in the base, if everyone could contact him, he would never get any peace.
However, some could request to speak with Wang Tao by contacting the guards of the villa area. This was to prevent any important messages from being overlooked.
A moment later, Wang Tao’s voice came through.
“I’m Wang Tao, what’s happening?”
“Big brother, I think I just got targeted! That instant, I almost thought I was dead…”
Gao Hua wasn’t so much asking for help as he was informing Wang Tao of the situation. Of course, he also harbored a hope for his big brother’s protection. “Where are you now?”
“I’m in the office in the comprehensive building!”
“Hmm, wait there for a while.”
In the small villa, Wang Tao ended the call.
“He’s really come.”
Wang Tao immediately put on all his gear and then drove to the comprehensive building.
On the way there, Wang Tao’s spirit was on high alert, ready to act at any moment. But he didn’t feel watched, nor did he notice anything unusual.
After arriving at the comprehensive building, Wang Tao met Gao Hua in the office.
“It was like this… I was just about to cross an intersection, there were other people on the road, but not many… it seems like only the road to the north was empty…”
Gao Hua quickly laid out everything about his encounter, including his mental state at the time and his speculation about where someone might be.
After listening to Gao Hua, Wang Tao thought for a moment.
The road to the north… the school cafeteria? The teachers’ apartments?
“Okay, I understand. Don’t go out from here for now.”
“Got it!”
Wang Tao then visited the conference room on the top floor, where only Ren Jie was present.
“Shao Yong is here.”
Wang Tao got straight to the point.
“What? Where is he!”
Ren Jie was startled.
Besides Wang Tao’s top combat power in the base, everyone else had gone out. If Shao Yong had come at this time, it might not be easy to handle!
Wang Tao pointed down to the ground.
“Inside the base.”
“What?”
Seeing that Wang Tao didn’t seem to be joking, Ren Jie’s face turned somewhat ugly.
“He’s inside the base already? That was fast! We were still looking for him, yet he’s come here by himself…”
If Shao Yong was inside the base, it wouldn’t be a question of whether they could kill him, but whether he would cause destruction or kill survivors inside the base!
Shao Yong, an ability user stronger than Wang Tao—if he enacted destruction and indiscriminate killing within the base, they wouldn’t stand a chance! Such combat power was scarier than zombies!
Although somewhat panicked, Ren Jie stayed composed.
He asked about the specific situation from Wang Tao, and then with a stern face, he said:
“He definitely couldn’t have entered through the main gate; after all, we have four guns guarding it. He must have climbed over the wall from somewhere. I’ll send people to patrol the surroundings and see if any clues can be found…” “You said you saw him on the northbound road; there’s only the cafeteria and the teachers’ apartments there… Why don’t you check out the cafeteria? I’ll send people to the teachers’ apartments…”
“That’s what I was thinking. But you don’t need to send people over there; to avoid alarming the target, I’ll have Han Rui check it out.”
“Alright! Then I’ll inform the Security Army to be ready for combat at any time. And then I’ll try to contact Wei Zhenguo and the others to see if we can get through…”
Ren Jie immediately went to contact others, while Wang Tao got in touch with Han Rui to explain the situation, then drove on another road to the cafeteria.
It was now two o’clock in the afternoon, and the cafeteria was already preparing dinner for the day..
