464 The Rats That Know How to Hide

Liu Yu wore no expression when Yang Jianhua told him to kill all those old, weak, and ill people.

Like Yang Jianhua, he had no family. The people who had families and weren't capable enough wouldn't end well in this base. They were unlucky, and they were wrong to choose this base to live in.

Long Yubai had always been a stingy person. Even many people in his own base were starved to death, not to mention the people from his enemy's base. Those people had nothing to do with him, so why would he give them food?

"But, if we kill those people, we might arouse the dissatisfaction of most of those soldiers in the army and those superpowered ones. They won't follow your order either," Liu Yu thought for a moment and said.

"There's no rush! They haven't been eating for many days, so they won't last long," Yang Jianhua said blandly.

He captured those people who didn't escape and gave them very little food. Normally, he only gave ten people two portions of food and let them fight for it. Therefore, many of those people died of starvation during the past few months. Yang Jianhua didn't even need to send his people to kill them.

Hearing what he said, Liu Yu nodded knowingly. He knew that Yang Jianhua would say that.

"When will we leave for Earth Dragon Base then?" Liu Yu thought for a second and asked another question.

Yang Jianhua didn't respond immediately, but kept reading the name lists on the desk. After a while, he said, "There's no rush! He's heading to Sea City Base now, and won't be back anytime soon. You go bring out all the soldiers' families in Hades Base and keep them under control. Also, don't let them die. They don't have powers, but they're still useful. Without them, we won't be able to control the tens of thousands of soldiers easily."

"Alright, I'll be on it soon," Liu Yu responded.

"Haven't you cleaned those rats outside the base yet? You need to take care of them as soon as possible. Don't give them any opportunities to show up and ruin our plan," Yang Jianhua suddenly thought of something and said to Liu Yu.

"We've cleared most of them. However, there is a squad which is pretty hard to deal with. They're all very good at hiding. They are hiding all the time, and only show up occasionally. We can't locate them." Speaking of those people who were loyal to Lin Qiao and were still lingering around the base, Liu Yu instantly suffered a headache.

"Really? Who are those people? Do you know who they are?" Yang Jianhua asked.

Liu Yu responded, "Duan Juan and Li Hongsheng, and the other few who used to be Lin Qiao's close guards. They're leading a group of people now. They aren't good at fighting, but they do know how to hide like rats."

"Duan Juan? That woman is still alive? Do they still have their eyes on this broken base?" Yang Jianhua snorted coldly.

Li Hongsheng nodded and said, "Yes. She and Li Hongsheng gathered the other superpowered people and soldiers who escaped. They kept showing up around the base, and we don't know what they're up to."

Yang Jianhua looked at Liu Yu, his eyes glowing with a cold light. "You don't know what they're up to, but you let them stay out there?" he asked.

Liu Yu paused for a second, then responded in panic, "No… We've been tracking them all the time, but those people are so sneaky. Every time when we located them and got to their place, they weren't there. They knew that we were coming, and they ran away in advance."

"Every time? Are you sure that there isn't a mole among your people?" Yang Jianhua asked blandly.

"That is possible…" said Liu Yu.

Yang Jianhua waved a hand and said, "Alright, get rid of them as soon as possible. They must be up to something, or they won't stay here and keep their eyes on the base."

"Yes," Liu Yu immediately turned and left.

While Yang Jianhua was taking small actions behind Long Yubai's back, Lin Qiao almost arrived Hades Base on the second day of her trip. She drove across Ganzhou and entered Heyuan. By now, she was still three hours of driving away from Hui City, where Hades Base was located.

Hades Base was located in a seaside town named Huidong in Hui City, not in the middle of the city.

After entering the town, Lin Qiao put her car back into her space, then climbed onto a roof and carefully sensed the scents in the air. Then, she chose a direction to go.

She entered a primary school. The tables and chairs in the classrooms were overturned, and the books and notebooks scattered all over the floor.

Dried blood could be found on the walls, doors, windows, and many places.

At this moment, a strong scent of blood was spreading from one of those classrooms.

That blood scent was the reason why Lin Qiao came here. She was far away from human bases on her way here, so she hadn't sensed such a strong blood scent until now. The blood scent told her that a fierce zombie was in this place.

She wouldn't let go of any human-eating fierce zombies that crossed her sight.

She came to the entrance of the primary school and looked around at the deserted environment, then set a foot in the school.

She followed the road which was now covered in weed to the three-story classroom building. Soon, she got close to that building, and the stinky blood scent which was coming from the third floor of that building grew even stronger.

Lin Qiao couldn't help but cover her nose with her hand. Although she didn't need to breathe anymore, she could still sense smells, and her sense of smell was rather sharp.

That blood scent went straight into her brain through her nose, and she was even left a little dizzied.

She walked upstairs toward the source of the blood scent. From the thick scent of blood, she detected the vibe of a zombie leader, which was especially fierce and hostile.

Layers of blood stains were seen in the middle of the stairs, old and new. Clearly, some bleeding living creatures were dragged upstairs. As for whether those were human beings or animals, it was hard to tell.

Lin Qiao didn't need to make a guess, because her nose told her that that was human blood. The blood was all dried, but still had the scent of human blood.

She stepped on the unstained areas while walking up. At the same time, she had also been observing those blood stains.

Many bleeding people were dragged upstairs along the same route, so now, the accumulated blood stains had formed into a blood trail. The blood on the stairs had dried and fresh blood spread upon it countless times.

As a result, the blood trail was already very thick.

Lin Qiao followed the blood trail to the third floor and saw it extend into a classroom.

She walked over and found the door half open. The rusty doorplate was still hanging on the door frame.

Class Three, Grade Five.

Lin Qiao didn't go in, but walked to a window and looked inside. Then, she knitted her brows into a frown.

All the tables and chairs in the classroom were placed in order, not overturned like those in the other classrooms. Every table and chair was exactly where it used to be.

What made Lin Qiao frown weren't those orderly arranged tables and chairs, but those dead bodies which were placed on those tables.
