Zombie Sister Strategy

The next day, in the place where Li Zheng and his teammates were staying, someone knocked the door early in the morning.

“Who came so early?” Lin Yu glanced at the others and asked. While speaking, he walked to the door, preparing to open it.

“It might be Sea City Base people,” said Li Zheng, referring to the officers from Sea City Base.

Lin Yu opened the door and saw two men in service uniforms standing out there. They had seen one of the two men before, following the Deputy Chief named Xiao Yunlong.

“Captain Huang? What brought you here? It’s so early in the morning,” Lin Yu said to Xiao Yunlong’s assistant, whose name was Huang Ming.

Huang Ming and one of his subordinates stood outside the door, carrying a few bags. Seeing Lin Yu, he smilingly handed him the bag.

“We need to talk to you. I suppose you haven’t had breakfast. We got you something from the cafeteria. Eat them while they’re still warm.”

Lin Yu smiled and opened the door, taking over the bags as he thanked him, “Thank you! You’ve been too nice to us!”

Huang Min walked in, leaving his subordinate waiting outside the door. As he came in, Lin Yu closed the door.

Lin Zheng prepared Huang Ming a chair for him to sit down, then asked curiously, “What made you come so early in the morning.”

Huang Ming took a seat and then responded, “Ah, you should have breakfast first. I’ll tell you when you’re done. Have you gotten used to living here yet? Is this place too small for the five of you? How about I get you a larger place?”

He didn’t answer Li Zheng’s question, but brought up another topic.

Lin Yu and Li Zheng glanced at each other. Neither of them knew what Huang Ming wanted to tell them. As Huang Ming insisted on waiting until they finished the breakfast, they decided to do as he said.

They opened the breakfast bag. The breakfast comprised of a dozen steamed breads and Baozi; ¹  they were all made from refined flour, and could be counted as luxurious.

Each of the five got a steamed bread and a Baozi.

Li Cheng took a bite of the Baozi, then replied to Huang Ming with laughter, “Ah, no need, we’re good! This place is nice for us. Lin Yu has made a bed on the floor, which is fine. Worst case scenario, we might step on him when we get up in the night to use the bathroom.”

“Haha,” Huang Ming laughed, “You wouldn’t do that on purpose, would you?”

“They don’t dare,” Lin Yu said with his mouth stuffed by Baozi, ” I’d crush their d*cks.” While speaking, he realized that when the others stepped over him at night, he could totally make an upward kick to attack their crotch area.

“Eh-hem!” Feng Yuming said with a smile, “Brother Lin Yu, so that’s what you thought every time when we stepped over you.”

Lin Yu rolled his eyes, then focused on the Baozi. The Baozi was small, so he finished it with two bites and started eating the steamed bread.

“No need!” He said to Huang Ming, “We’re just a bunch of men with no special needs. We won’t stay here for long anyway. When our Chief arrives, we’ll still need to move out.”

The others all nodded.

As they all finished the breakfast and began drinking water, Huang Ming began talking.

He stopped smiling and said with a serious look, “I came here today to tell you something about your base. You all know that some people from the Earth Dragon Base had been coveting your base for long. This time, they were about to make a move, so your Chief Netherworld Fire sent you to our base to seek cooperation. However, our Deputy Chief got a message yesterday morning. A couple of days after you left, your Hades Base was broken.”

Hearing that, Li Zheng and his teammates all paused and turned to Huang Ming, their faces filled with disbelief.

“That’s impossible! Didn’t they say that the Earth Dragon Base will launch the attack in five months? How can they possibly attack right after we left? Besides, our base can’t be broken so easily. Our Chief is so powerful!” Feng Yuming said with an unbelieving look. His eyes were popped in surprise, voice was filled with panic and anxiety.

They knew that the Earth Dragon Base had already allied with some other bases and prepared to attack their base. Even their Chief thought that the Hades Base might not be able to survive. That was why she sent them to the Sea City Base to seek cooperation. Their Chief was planning to find a place in Zhe Province to build another base. As the Hades Base had a considerable population, she wanted the Sea City Base to temporarily accommodate some women, children, and other people from Hades Base who weren’t able to fight.

Those people didn’t need any fancy place to live. They could even live in sheds. As long as they were protected by the strong wall of a base, they would be fine.

In the post-apocalyptic era, every base had a twenty-meterd-tall fence wall that was protecting all its members from the zombies.

Therefore, Chief Netherworld Fire was planning to send a part of the Hades Base people into the Sea City Base first, then gather some relatively stronger men to build a temporary base near the Sea City. After that, they would go to the Zhe Province to build their new base.

About that, Netherworld Fire had sent her people to negotiate with the three leaders of the Sea City Base. This time, she sent Li Zheng and his teammates to talk to Wu Chengyue to confirm it for the last time, and also to find the place for their temporary base. When the first batch of the Hades Base people arrived, the construction of the new base would begin, and the Sea City Base would send people to help with it. But of course, the Hades Base had promised the Sea City Base a certain amount of supplies as payback.

According to the information they got, the Earth Dragon People would only attack in five months from now. Five months was enough to send away most of the Hades Base people.

However, Huang Ming was telling them that in just a couple of days after they left, their base has been broken!

They had only left their base for about a month. If what Huang Ming said was true, it had already been around twenty days since their base broke. Their Chief and Deputy Chiefs were still guarding the base, so how on earth could it be broken so fast?

The others shared the same thought as Feng Yuming. None of them believed Huang Ming.

“Calm down!” said Huang Ming, “Things happened for a reason. I assume you don’t know about it yet. Yang Jianhua, one of your two Deputy Chiefs, is actually a mole from the Earth Dragon Base. He gave the information about your base and our base to the Earth Dragon Base people, then lied to your Chief that the Earth Dragon people will attack in five months. That’s why things became like this.”

“That’s impossible!” The five said in one voice as Huang Ming finished talking.
