Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Duan Juan first spent a few seconds looking at her with surprise, then adjusted her expression and started reporting.
“Jiang Anan is infected by the zombie virus. Her mother somehow learned that the hospital in Sea City Base has your energy lake water that can stop the virus from spreading. So, she wanted to send her into the hospital to keep her from becoming a zombie, even though she might never wake up,” Duan Juan said, “Tonight, Bai Xuer and Ding Biao were going to kill her and her daughter. Li Yue Shan and I have transferred Jiang Anan to a secret safe place. We’ve also given her your lake water to stop the virus from further spreading.”
Lin Qiao nodded, and then Duan Juan continued, “You guessed right. Bai Xuer became friends with Jiang Anan on purpose. Jiang Anan was a loner, and she and her mother are keeping a secret. That was the reason why Bai Xuer went through the trouble to become friends with her. Now, Bai Xuer has gotten what she wanted, so she planned to get rid of her.”
Lin Qiao glanced at Duan Juan and said, “So this time, what Jiang Anan saved Bai Xuer from was actually a trap that the latter set for her on purpose, right?”
Duan Juan nodded.
“What is that secret?” Lin Qiao asked.
Ding Biao said, “People said that Jiang Anan’s father is dead, but in fact, he is still alive. He isn’t in Sea City Base, but in Huaxia Base. I heard that he was a botanist before the apocalypse. Most of the people who knew Jiang Anan and her mother knew about that. Bai Xuer’s hunting group has been making secret information deals with Huaxia Base. Huaxia Base people might think of Jiang Anan’s father as a very important person, so in order to control him, they found out about Jiang Anan and her mother, and asked Ding Biao and his people to keep an eye on them.”
“So, Jiang Anan and her mother are supposed to be hostages. Why do Bai Xuer and her people now want to kill them?” said Lin Qiao with a frown.
“Jiang Anan’s mother told me that Jiang Anan’s father escaped from Huaxia Base a few months ago. Moreover, he was shot dead during the manhunt. However, he gave someone his diary before death and asked that man to bring it to Sea City Base to Jiang Anan. Bai Xuer got the diary from Jiang Anan. So now, she’s preparing to kill Jiang Anan and her mother.”
Lin Qiao nodded knowingly and said, “I see. So, Bai Xuer’s hunting group trades intelligence with Huaxia Base, right?”
Duan Juan nodded and replied with, “Li Yue Shan has dug out everything about that group of people. I believe Chief Wu’s men will soon be dealing with them. Are you still going to see Jiang Anan? She’s infected. Do you know how to save her?”
Lin Qiao nodded, then stood up and said, “Yeah. Why not? I can save her as long as she’s still alive.”
Lin Yu was the first person she saved from the zombie virus, and Bao Xiaoguo was the second one. Jiang Anan might be the third one.
At the same time, Wu Chengyue returned to his study room and soon received the message from Li Yue Shan. The message was same as what Duan Juan told Lin Qiao.
“Should we take them out in public or in secret?” Li Yue Shan asked Wu Chengyue.
“What did they do apart from trading intelligence with Huaxia Base? Have they shown any intention of joining Huaxia Base?” said Wu Chengyue.
Li Yue Shan nodded and responded with, “I think so. They seem to be preparing to join Huaxia Base.”
Wu Chengyue thought for a moment and said, “Deal with them in public then. They haven’t left Sea City Base yet. Just execute them for selling intelligence.”
“Yes, sir!”
“There’s one other thing. Bring me the file of Netherworld Fire, the leader of Hades Base. I want the details. I also want to know her background before the apocalypse,” Wu Chengyue gave him another order.
“Huh? Isn’t she…” Li Yue Shan looked at him with confusion. He did not understand why his Chief suddenly wanted to know about that dead leader of Hades Base. But, he was the man’s subordinate, so he had no choice but to follow the order. “Okay, I will do it.”
“No wonder you seemed to be so close with Lin Hao and Duan Juan…” Wu Chengyue murmured to himself with a mysterious smile on his face.
Li Yue Shan was utterly confused.
Why was his Chief taking to himself?
…
Bai Xuer, Ding Biao, and their people secretly showed up in Jiang Anan’s apartment, looking at the empty apartment sullenly.
“Where are they? Haven’t your men been keeping an eye on this apartment?” Ding Biao turned to a man and said to him.
The man was clearly panic. “They… They suddenly disappeared. I haven’t heard from them yet, so…”
Bai Xuer furrowed her brows and said, “Jiang Anan is infected. If anyone saw her, she’d be arrested immediately. She wouldn’t dare to go outside. But, where are they?”
Ding Biao thought for a moment, then turned on his flashlight and looked carefully around the apartment. “All their belongings are still here. I think they didn’t have the time to pack before leaving.”
Bai Xuer abruptly snorted with laughter and said, “Jiang Anan is infected by the zombie virus. She might become a zombie at any time. How dare that old woman take her out? Does she want her daughter to die faster?”
Jiang Anan’s mother wasn’t very old. However, she looked older than her real age because of her bad health. Therefore, Bai Xuer had been calling her old woman.
“We need to find them as soon as possible,” said Ding Biao with a serious look, “If they told anyone else about the diary, we’d be in trouble.”
“Okay,” Bai Xuer responded carelessly.
The group of people quickly left the apartment and scattered to search for Jiang Anan and her mother. They spent the whole night searching around, but not even a clue about the two was found.
Meanwhile, Lin Qiao arrived at where Jiang Anan was. That was an isolated, strictly guarded building in Central Hospital, with a series of independent rooms inside. She followed Duan Juan into the building, and the guards by the entrance didn’t stop them.
Duan Juan guided Lin Qiao into the building toward the stairs. On the third floor, she turned and walked into the hallway, over to the door of a room.
“They’re in there,” Duan Juan looked at the closed door and said to Lin Qiao. While speaking, she knocked on the door.
Soon, the door was opened from the inside. The middle-aged woman that Lin Qiao had seen earlier today was standing behind the door, surprised to see Lin Qiao.
“You…”
Then, she turned to Duan Juan and nodded knowingly. Earlier on, she didn’t pay much attention to Duan Juan, so she didn’t realize that Duan Juan was the one who confronted Bai Xuer. However, she recalled it all when she saw Lu Tianyu’s face.
