1107 What's the Answer?

"What on earth has happened between them?" Duan Juan couldn't help but ask with curiosity, clearly bored of waiting. As same as her, the zombies beside her had all been expecting that story. After all, they had nothing to do at the moment. They were all waiting for the main characters in the story to show up. One of them had already shown up while the other one was still missing.

Lin Qiao thought for a moment and then said, "Based on what I've learned from the bearded man, he and Long Hair used to be good friends. They were a policeman and a doctor. When the apocalypse happened, the bearded man lost his only family, and half of his friends and colleagues turned into zombies. He then found Long Hair. During the first two years after the apocalypse, their other friends died, vanished, or betrayed them. Thus, they became the only friend to each other. Later on, Long Hair shot the bearded man from the back for an unknown reason, although the latter survived. I guess he hates the man so much because he used to believe that the man would never betray him."

"So, his best friend shot him in the back. Anyone would hate the friend who did that. But, isn't it a little too extreme that it's the hatred that's been supporting him to live?" said Duan Juan.

Lin Qiao shook her head and said, "I think he's rational. Before Long Hair shot him, he was a commoner. When Long Hair shot him, his power was waking up. What would you think if the same thing happened to you?"

"He shot me, so I wouldn't let him get away with it," said Duan Juan coldly, "Why did Long Hair betray him?"

Lin Qiao shrugged and said, "We're gonna have to ask Long Hair about that. After all, even the bearded man himself didn't have the answer."

Hearing that, Duan Juan was stunned. "He doesn't know?" she said, "Has he never found Yan Huiguang and ask the man why?"

Lin Qiao glanced at the others and said, "He had, but Long Hair didn't answer his question. Every time they saw each other, they tried to kill each other. However, I think if Long Hair really wants the bearded man to die, he'd have died long ago."

The others looked at her with confusion. "What do you mean?" asked Duan Juan.

Lin Qiao explained, "Yan Huiguang has been a superpower possessor all the time. He has two different types of power, along with his medical skills. He was a highly valuable person, so he must have a lot of followers. Shui Mingjun was a police officer, much weaker than Yan Huiguang. Besides, he never trusted anybody. Do you think he could survive till now if Yan Huiguang really wanted to kill him?"

Duan Juan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I think you're probably right."

Li Zhengye looked at Sky Fire Base and said, "The ones who are closely involved in something often cannot see the truth clearly. I think Shui Mingjun was probably not aware of his real situation. Or, he might have some kind of misunderstanding. Yan Huiguang worked with Li Zhengye and asked the latter to search for Shui Mingjun. But, I think killing Shui Mingjun isn't his real purpose."

Duan Juan pondered for a few seconds, then looked at Lin Qiao and said confusedly, "Why do I feel like you're trying to get Yan Huiguang off the hook? Have you forgotten that he knows your secret?"

"You're wrong. I'm only trying to figure out the relationship between Long Hair and Shui Mingjun. We might be able to use Shui Mingjun against him," Lin Qiao gave her a glance, then continued, "But, all I said was only my guess. We need to talk to Yan Huiguang to verify it. Besides, I'm also curious why he shot Shui Mingjun."

"Maybe Yan Huiguang misunderstood something," Yan Huiguang abruptly joined the conversation.

"Maybe they fell into someone else's trap!" said Jingyan.

"Perhaps someone was jealous of Yan Huiguang and Shui Mingjun for being closer friends," Duan Juan made a guess as well.

"Maybe someone was in secret love with Yan Huiguang. That person thought Yan Huiguang liked Shui Mingjun, so he or she said something to Yan Huiguang and tricked him into attacking Shui Mingjun. Or, an enemy of Shui Mingjun found that his power was waking up, so that person managed to make Yan Huiguang try to kill him," Yan Huiguang thought for a moment and added.

"You girls have a great imagination…" said Xie Dong, "What do you mean by Yan Huiguang liking Shui Mingjun? You yaoi fandom are so scary!"

Lin Qiao, Duan Juan, Yan Xiao, Jingyan and the other female zombies stared at him with dagger eyes together.

Xie Dong stayed silent. 'These women are scary indeed. Oh, Junjun is much nicer than them!'

Ye Qingxian walked over and patted Xie Dong on the shoulder, "Don't say anything that shouldn't be said, or you might suffer really bad."

Xie Dong didn't know how to respond.

"What's wrong about yaoi fandom? Have we been eating your food or spending your money?"

Duan Juan stared at him and said, "You don't like men, but some other men might. When you truly love someone, gender won't be important."

Jingyan also stared at him as well. "I agree."

Yan Xiao folded her arms before her chest and said, "Most of the women have turned into zombies after the apocalypse. Of course, men are sleeping with each other. What else can they do? Sleep with zombies?"

Clap! A small stone landed on her head once she finished.

Lin Qiao looked at her and said, "You are a zombie yourself. What are you talking about?"

Being reminded by Lin Qiao, Yan Xiao realized the fact that she herself was a zombie too. "Oh, you're right! But, no man has the guts to sleep with me."

The others felt a little speechless. 'Girl, mind your language!' they thought.

At that moment, Lin Kui who had been staying quiet and expressionless all the time, let out his voice, "I think he's here."

The others instantly adjusted their expressions and restrained their vibes. Lin Qiao had told them that Yan Huiguang was probably studying zombies, so he might be able to sense them.

Lin Qiao turned to Lin Kui and narrowed her eyes as she stood up and said, "Move!"

Within a blink of an eye, all the zombies on the roof disappeared. Meanwhile, Lin Qiao turned herself invisible and swiftly moved toward the source of the top-level-seven vibe that was approaching Sky Fire Base.

Sky Fire Base people had spent a very long and difficult night. They prepared themselves for the war and waited for the zombie attack to start. However, nothing happened. At the moment, they were just constantly nervous and anxious.

A few batches of people had been sent out of the base. Some of them were forced back into the base and others were eaten by zombies. They had no way to deliver the news to the other bases.

"Both Huaxia Base and Sea City Base have spies outside our base. I think those people will bring the news back to their own bases. Huaxia Base is the strongest best in the country and is in cooperation with us. They will certainly do something to aid us," Cui Tengguang stayed calm, still having a gleam of hope.

"What… What if those Huaxia Base people have all been eaten by zombies? After all, those zombies gathered from a long distance away." Someone had negative thoughts.

"If that's the case, we're on our own then," Cui Tengguang looked at him and responded helplessly after a short silence.

Hearing that, the group of people instantly fell into silence.
