CH 35

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning didn’t know the location of the ‘Xiangzhu’ for the time being. They searched and searched until they arrived at the canteen of the conference center.

Now that the people of ‘Wugui’ are still searching for An Minghui and the others, they naturally have no time to eat lunch. They can use this loophole to do something.

The fat chef sitting in the kitchen saw them through the window and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, “Why are you here?”

Lian Ru Ning said, “She was injured by those wicked people who didn’t give up and came back to save their people. I helped her to rest and see if she can have anything to eat on the way.”

The fat chef just wanted them to go back, wait, and follow the rules, but he suddenly realized that Lian Ru Ning’s charming appearance. His heart was shaken and asked, “Which group are you in? Why haven’t I seen you before?”

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning have a ‘thump’ in their hearts. Luckily, they heard him say again, “It doesn’t matter. You’re hungry, so sit down. I will give you some noodles first.”

A glimmer of doubt flashed through their hearts, but they soon understood that the fat chef was purely interested in Lian Ru Ning.

Lian Ru Ning didn’t roll her eyes, instead, she shyly and nervously said, “Well, this is not good. Now that it’s so messy outside, Xiangzhu and the others haven’t eaten yet!”

The fat chef didn’t realize that there were such stunning beauties in the organization. Thinking that sooner or later, the girls in front of him would have to eventually dedicate themselves to their Xiangzhu, it would be better for him to play with Lian Ru Ning as soon as possible.

“It’s okay, Xiangzhu is in charge out those doors, but in this kitchen, I have the final say!”

“Let us help you work, so that the other’s can’t say anything.” Hao Jian suddenly proposed.

The fat chef’s heart moved. Although Hao Jian had injured her head, she still looks good. If he could have a threesome, he should. He seemed to have earned it anyway.

There are not many chefs in the cafeteria. There are only two people. In addition to the fat chef in front of them, there is also another chef that had an unhappy expression.

The kitchen was a little messy, with piles of yellowed vegetables and fruits on the ground , rotten meat products, and rice worms.

And the food they were talking about was actually mixing these things together. No matter how disgusting is the appearance, the people here don’t care as long as they can eat.

As for the people in this organization, the fat chef is in charge of most of the delicious foods; such as canned goods and noodles that have not yet expired.

“I’m busy here. Go and rest. It’s not time for them to eat yet anyway.” The fat chef said to the other chef.

The chef glanced at them, “Fine, just don’t play for too long.”

The fat chef showed a wretched smile. When the unhappy chef left, Lian Ru Ning caught Hao Jian’s eyes and pretended to be excited, “Can I really eat first?”

The fat chef approached her with a grin “Of course, but you still have to cook something for the assholes first.”

“Assholes?”

The fat chef curled his lips, “Those who don’t work, don’t get to eat.”

He also wanted to take the opportunity to touch Lian Ru Ning’s hand, but Lian Ru Ning pretended to be ignorant and avoided his touch and changed the subject again, leading him away.

Hao Jian poured the powerful tranquilizer she bought from the mall into the pot and stirred it until nothing was noticeable.

Due to the purchase restrictions, she couldn’t buy a large amount of tranquilizers. But fortunately, there is a special soothing medicine in the mall. Even if it’s mixed with a lot of water, its medicinal effect is still effective. Although it required 300 points, she can no longer be stingy with her points if she wants to achieve her goal.

When she finished doing this, she went to find Lian Ru Ning. The fat chef was forcing her into a corner when Hao Jian found her, while Lian Ru Ning desperately pushed against the fat chef’s grubby hands.

“What are you pretending for? You followed me in, isn’t that tacit approval?” The fat chef laughed lewdly.

Hao Jian got angry, drew out her axe from the vest and fiercely hit the fat chef’s head.

Even if she used the back end of the axe and his head didn’t split, due to Hao Jian’s strength, the chef would still suffer a concussion. He also didn’t have time to make a sound before he fell to the ground as Hao Jian stepped forward and gave him another hit.

Lian Ru Ning calmed down, “Is he dead?”

Hao Jian restrained her desire to hit the fat chef the third time and coldly said, “Not dead.”

If he died, the system would have notified her.

Lian Ru Ning grabbed the kitchen knife in the kitchen, thinking on whether to kill him or not. But after some contemplation, she still didn’t have the guts to kill the living, so she gave up.

Hao Jian knew that she couldn’t let her guard down, so she tied the fat chef up and moved all the yellowing dishes and meat to cover his body before cleaning herself.

At this moment, someone came to the cafeteria. Hao Jian instructed Lian Ru Ning to do a few things. When Hao Jian left, Lian Ru Ning’s face flushed, but she knew that if they didn’t want to gather any unwanted attention to themselves, it was the only way to go.

“Who are you, where’s Big Fat?” A ‘Wugui’ member came.

Hao Jian looked embarrassed and was struggling to say something. The man then heard a woman moaning from the kitchen. He suddenly realized what was happening and smirked, “Nevermind who you are, are you ready to cook for us?”

Hao Jian replied, “Well, it’s ready. . . Have the evil people who came to rescue the guilty been caught?”

The visitor then said contemptuously, “I don’t know where they’re hiding, but we’ll find them sooner or later.” He then glanced at Hao Jian again, “Later, after Big Fat is finished, you send food to Xiangzhu and the others!”

Hao Jian was surprised and delighted, “Can I deliver food to Xiangzhu? I just received my baptism yesterday, am I not qualified?”

He laughed. “It’s just meal delivery, what qualifications do you need? Oh, by the way, Xiangzhu is in the VIP room on the fifth floor. Prepare a few more portions, there are still several people who want to eat!”

The information he gave was enough. Hao Jian took his name from the side and waited for a while after he took his bowl of noodles.

In less than ten minutes, he finished his bowl of noodles and intended to ask for another bowl. When he reached the counter, he suddenly paused and turned around, push the door open and walked in, “Since when did Big Fat last that long?”

Just then, he began to experience dizziness and nausea. His eyes that was looking at Hao Jian’s figure started to blur and his hands and feet gradually became weak.

He was horrified as he suddenly realized that Hao Jian wasn’t someone who ‘just received their baptism yesterday’ at all. He pointed at Hao Jian, but before he could speak, he was dragged towards the back of the kitchen by Hao Jian while covering his mouth. He didn’t have the strength to resist and fell asleep as soon as he was laid on the ground.

Although Hao Jian doesn’t know how long the tranquilizers in the mall will last, it seems that the medicine she bought from the mall had the same effect. It had the ability to relax the muscles and promote blood circulation, having an excellent effect.

Lian Ru Ning’s mouth was dry from moaning too much, and when she saw Hao Jian enter, she immediately stopped making such shameful cries.

Hao Jian brought her a bottle of water and said, “Those screams were quite realistic.”

Lian Ru Ning almost choked on the water in her mouth. She stared at Hao Jian with a red face, “You say it sounds real, have you tried it?”

“Do I have to experience it to say that it sounded real?” Hao Jian rhetorically asked.

“You— ” Lian Ru Ning instantly understood what Hao Jian meant but she couldn’t expose her, otherwise, Hao Jian would certainly ask her why she understood.

Hao Jian chuckled, “Later on, we will distribute the food to the ‘Wugui’ members, and then I will send some over to their Xiangzhu.”

Lian Ru Ning also got serious from their playfulness just now, “The food. . . did you do something?”

“Well, don’t touch it.”

Although Lian Ru Ning wondered what tampering she did, it wasn’t the time to delve deeper into it, so she simply did what Hao Jian said.

Hao Jian wanted to wait for the other chef to come back to get rid of him as well, but no matter how long she waited, no one came.

At this time, more and more people came to the cafeteria. They saw that there have been noodles set up in the counter, so they took it upon themselves to take one serving and eat it. They gobbled it up and didn’t even think about why the two chefs weren’t present.

Suddenly, someone shouted from outside, “There are many guards outside, come out and help!”

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning glanced at each other, knowing that the manpower from other refugee camps who were meant to be sent here that Yi Gao mention had arrived, so there was no need for them to follow the original plan.

There was an uproar in the cafeteria, and some people nervously said, “Ah, how many of them are there? We won’t be able to do anything good against them if we face them head-on!”

“Yeah, we were only able to kill them last time because they were unprepared.”

A lean man fired a few shots at the ceiling, scaring everyone around him into silence. The one who stood then shouted, “Damn it, you think you can get away with hiding here at this time? Why didn’t I see you get scared when I killed that group of guards? I’ll give you a ride if you don’t go out!”

The rest of the people immediately went out in a panic. Not long after they left, they suddenly turned back and the lean man threatened them, “What are you doing? Pretending to be sick so you can’t go?”

“No, ah, I feel a little uncomfortable. . .” They then passed out as soon as they finished speaking.

The lean man saw his people fall one after another, and finally noticed the anomaly. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the chance to think about what was going on and collapsed on the ground.

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning, who were curled up below the counter, poked their head out and peered from the window. Seeing that the people were all down, they quickly walked out. Hao Jian then stripped the few people who had guns, gave Lian Ru Ning a handgun while she carried a rifle gun.

Lian Ru Ning held the gun, “I can’t use this!”

Hao Jian briefly instructed, “You don’t really have to use it. Just use it to intimidate them when necessary.”

At this time, the sound of gunshots rang out from the hall, and the people who were being brainwashed scrambled as they ran out. Some were screaming in fear, others crashing against one another like headless flies, while others ran upstairs one after another.

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning glanced at each other and mixed into the chaotic crows. They they grabbed a woman and asked, “What happened inside?”

When the woman saw their outfits, her voice trembled, “Someone shot and killed someone inside, and your companions were killed!”

Hao Jian wondered how this woman could know that they had a companion inside, and suddenly realized that the woman was probably walking about the people from ‘Wugui’

In addition to this hall, there were also many ordinary people pouring out of the second floor meeting hall.

Hao Jian thought of the fact that the conference center and civic park had housed tens of thousands of evacuees, and there should be many more aside from those who died at the hands of zombies and the ‘Wugui’

Although the ‘Wugui’ methods are cruel, it can be seen that they are very ambitious. If they want to form a force that can compete with the official army, it is necessary to brainwash more people. So the two thousand people in the hall just now many only be a part of it.

Judging that there’s another hall on the second floor, there should be more halls like this. An Minghui lack the sufficient manpower, so they haven’t moved to those halls for the time being.

Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning exchanged glances, and ran towards those halls respectively.

The original refugees who had no power were guaranteed manpower in the eyes of ‘Wugui’. They could brainwash them through various means, force them to join ‘Wugui’ and then have them to confront the guards.

They can also use these people as blackmail to force the officials to retreat when the guards come and surround them.

Although they discovered that someone had infiltrated, they never expected that those people would use the pawns in their hands to disrupt their actions.

Thousands of people poured out of the hall. They knew that there were zombies outside, so they didn’t dare to run outside. most of them went upstairs to look for a place to hide, and a few went into the restrooms and other places.

Some of those who ran upstairs found a random place to hide in, while others inadvertently rushed towards the place where the ‘Wugui’ men were guarding, but were viciously chased out by the ‘Wugui’ people.

In this way, there was no need for An Minghui and his team to look through the meeting rooms one after another to know the situation above.

The conference center that was once the command center was stationed on the third or fourth floor of Building A, and the fifth floor of Building B was made as the dispatch center where various equipment were placed, contacting superiors, and commanding various evacuation bases. However, the traitors blocked the signal without their knowledge and the place was quickly captured.

The ‘Wugui’ people moved all kinds of equipment and hid the commander-in-chief and the others elsewhere. Therefore, An Minghui, Chen Zhen, and the others couldn’t rely on their previous information to determine which room is the communication equipment room, or Xiangzhu’s or their commander-in-chief’s hiding place.

Although An Minghui had caught someone to extract a confession, the other party didn’t seem to be a key figure, so they were discovered by surveillance after asking three questions.

So An Minghui and the others came up with the idea of using these people to lead them and take the initiative to tell them where Xiangzhu and their commander-in-chief were hiding.

After scaring the people on one of the third floor hall of refugees, Hao Jian headed to the next conference center.

There aren’t many assembly halls on the third floor. The rooms on her left and right were meeting rooms that can only hold about two hundred people. She wasn’t sure whether there were people inside, so she had to check them out.

Just then, she suddenly saw a familiar face among the crows that was running away in a panic. The other party seemed to have seen her, and his eyes widened with both shock and anger, “Why are you here?”

Hao Jian’s eyes ran cold, “Li Ge. I should be the one asking you this, right?”
