Jiefang City.
The gate still stood, and so people were on guard by the entrance.
But opposite them, Li Yu and his group had lined up three cars, and the people in the cars got out, all ard with guns.
Li Yu was in the front, gazing at Jiefang City, the place he was visiting for the second ti.
Now his feelings were completely different from the last ti he ca here.
This ti, he ca with the intention to definitely kill the pompadour man.
In his conviction, he was determined to protect his family; they were his courage and foundation in this apocalyptic world.
Since soone had set their sights on the base, that person must be dealt with.
Perhaps the other refugees who were coerced by the pompadour man might be given a way out, but this chief culprit, pompadour man, had to be taken care of.
At the entrance to Jiefang City, the dozen or so guards saw Li Yu and his group's nacing approach and hurriedly ran to report to Director Zhang.
At this mont, Li Yu was in no hurry to enter Jiefang City directly; barging in could easily cause collateral damage.
He intended only to kill those who deserved it, sparing those who did not as much as possible.
He was actually curious to see how Director Zhang would handle this situation.
After waiting at the gate for about 3 minutes, they saw Director Zhang walk out wearing a white shirt that had turned sowhat yellowish, still unwashed, signaling how severe the water shortage was.
Director Zhang's large belly had visibly shrunk, and to Li Yu and his n, the miniaturized version of Director Zhang still seed composed.
However, when Director Zhang saw Li Yu and his group ard and standing outside the gate, less than 30 ters away,
His expression instantly beca sowhat panicked; they still had no clue why Li Yu and his team had co.
A forced smile stretched across his face as he said to Li Yu and the others, "Director Li, what brings you here today?"
No sooner had he finished speaking, he gave a side-eye signal to soone next to him, urging them to quickly find Captain Lv and others. If Li Yu and his group were to attack, they would stand no chance, but having Captain Lv and the others around would make him feel more secure.
Yes, that's right, a sense of security.
Director Zhang suddenly realized this and felt a chilling sensation, a strange thought flooding his mind.
He shook his head and focused his gaze on Li Yu and his companions.
Li Yu looked over at Director Zhang with a calm tone, "Yesterday a group of people ca in, those people intended to seize our base."
There was a pause in his words, and Director Zhang's mind raced, suddenly turning to look at the buildings behind him.
This area was allocated to those who had joined them yesterday.
Could it be that these were the people Director Li was referring to?
Li Yu continued, "Those people have now joined you."
He finished speaking without saying what Director Zhang should do, but just quietly watched them.
In this silence, the overwhelming pressure was extrely intense.
It was like a silent oppression; under this pressure, Director Zhang felt a chill inside.
It's over.
What to do?
Panic flitted across his face, but he quickly regained his composure. Deny it?
That seed unrealistic. With so many people, to say they weren't involved would be a blatant lie to Li Yu and his n, especially since Li Yu and his team had already co knocking, surely confirming that those people had entered Jiefang City.
It seed that Director Li and his people knew that these people had joined Jiefang City.
But he didn't know how Director Li wanted to resolve it. With the appearance of coming to hold soone accountable, he surely expected them to hand over those people.
Not to hand them over would surely bring trouble upon himself. But the thought of handing them over had just surfaced in his mind when it was quickly extinguished.
After all, he had boasted before that he would accept anyone into Jiefang City, saying just yesterday that once they ca to Jiefang City, they would all be family. There was no need to worry about being hard by others anymore.
If he surrendered these people now, where would his credibility and honor be?
These thoughts flashed through his mind in just a few seconds.
Seeing that Li Yu was watching him, he put on a smile again and said, "Director Li, it's like this... we're in an apocalypse now and life is difficult for everyone, you know? Could you perhaps spare them for my sake?"
His tone was pleading and ingratiating.
He was very aware that Li Yu was a killing god, having previously slaughtered everyone from Yugu Platform without rcy.
He was not soone to be trifled with.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu raised an eyebrow, noncommittally.
Li Yu remained silent, but Li Hang, Li Tie, and the others beside him seed eager to move. Under the influence of Li Yu, they had all beco sowhat bloodthirsty.
These guys were quick to fight at the slightest disagreent. It had beco a habit.
When Li Hang and Li Tie heard Director Zhang's words, they subtly lifted their guns.
Director Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing their movent, and soone by his side also gently tugged at him.
Just then, Captain Lv approached.
Captain Lv was soone Li Yu had a relatively good impression of. He was kind but not blindly so.
A hint of relief appeared in Director Zhang's eyes upon seeing Captain Lv, as if he had found so backbone.
But when Captain Lv saw Li Yu and his group, he had a bad feeling. Although they also had a few handguns, the recent battles had depleted a lot of their ammunition.
They weren't like Li Yu and his group, who had acquired two complete gun arsenals and had more bullets than they could count.
They only had a few bullets each, and as the apocalypse dragged on, they hardly used firearms anymore, using guns only as a weapon of intimidation.
They were to be displayed, but hardly used.
Feeling inwardly anxious, he took the initiative to step forward and say, "Director Li, what brings you here?"
Before Li Yu could answer, Li Hang spoke up, "Yesterday, so people entered your base; these people attacked our base a few days ago. Hand them over."
Li Hang shrank a little under Li Yu's glance.
Li Yu did not stop Li Hang, as having Li Hang speak up now was, in fact, a rather good approach.
Hearing this, Captain Lv beca anxious and, recalling the people who had entered Jiefang City yesterday, he grasped the situation and said quickly, "Director Li, we can understand how you feel right now, but it's not feasible for us to hand over so many people at once; it would lead to chaos within."
During his talk, he glanced back at the building behind him.
Captain Lv, who had been an experienced police officer before, had seen all sorts of people. He had reservations about those who joined Jiefang City yesterday; after all, feeding so many in this weather was a big hassle, and now they couldn't even sustain themselves.
Yet they were taking in these people.
Sigh...
Upon hearing Captain Lv's implications, Director Zhang beca anxious.
