Chapter 266: Driving Thousands of Miles
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
The concubines were shocked to death after seeing Boss Sun"s tragic, b.l.o.o.d.y figure buried under rocks. They couldn"t believe it. How could it be true? How could Jiang Lius.h.i.+ kill so easily their powerful Emperor?
Those concubines had been selected to serve in the palace right after the virus outbreak, so they hadn"t witnessed the cruel scenes other had to face every single day. As a result, when they saw the b.l.o.o.d.y mess, they felt sick.
Three guards appeared, but they quickly dropped their guns, and kneeled on the ground immediately, after seeing that scene. They begged for mercy!
"What should we do with these people?" Ying asked coldly.
They had shot their minibus, so Ying was fond of killing them.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ answered, "It was their duty to shoot. I don"t intend to kill them. I want Ye County"s people to judge them first. If they"ve committed atrocious crimes, they"ll be sentenced to death."
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had decided to wipe out whoever was related to Boss Sun"s faction. That way, Ye County would flourish in the future.
After doomsday, if people wanted to live, they had to struggle in order to improve themselves. Fortunately, Ye County had a city wall, sufficient food reserves, and arable lands.
Just then, the roar of engines came from afar. Jiang Lius.h.i.+ turned around and saw an armored vehicle and two military vehicles getting closer to them.
Zhu Changqing jumped from the armored car.
"Captain Jiang, what is going on?" Zhu Changqing asked after seeing the b.l.o.o.d.y mess. He could barely recognize the Boss Sun.
"You killed Ye County"s leader?"
"Yes!" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ opened the door and answered angrily.
"Why?" Zhu Changqing was confused. Although he also believed that Boss Sun was not a good guy, he thought it was a bad idea to kill Boss Sun. After all, in this post-apocalyptic world, it was entirely normal for paranormals to indulge in their pleasures since they had the ability.
"A certain someone in Shenhai Island wanted to kill me. Boss Sun cooperated with his lackeys," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ explained.
After hearing Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s explanation, Zhu was shocked. "Who? Really?"
But then, Zhu Changqing suddenly thought of a person—Chu Chongshan. As an officer, Zhu Changqing naturally knew the story of Jiang Lius.h.i.+ and Chu Chongshan.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ didn"t explain and continued, "Captain Zhu, I"ve never killed an innocent person! I"ve already promised to help you complete the mission, but I have to return to Shenhai Island first to tie up some loose ends. Please wait for us here for a few days. Please, help me take care of my aunt and cousin.
"Loose ends back to Shenhai Island!?" Zhu Changqing was shocked by Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s words. From Ye County to Shenhai Island, it was about 500 kilometers. They reached Ye County after several days filled with many dangers. Unexpectedly, actually wanted to go back!
Did Jiang Lius.h.i.+ want to kill Chu Chongshan? Zhu Changqing was scared with Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s plans. Shenhai Island was under the protection of many soldiers and weapons, so how could Jiang Lius.h.i.+ kill Chu Chongshan? It was impossible!
"Captain Jiang, I think you should calm down. Don"t act so rashly…" Zhu Changqing tried to persuade Jiang Lius.h.i.+. After all, Zhu Changqing was a kind person, so he couldn"t let Jiang Lius.h.i.+ do something he"d regret.
Unfortunately, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was obstinate, and then he said, "Captain Zhu, Ye County has food, gasoline, diesel, and grain. You can take some of those resources, but don"t take everything. You can take most of the gasoline and diesel, and leave some for me. During these days, if it"s convenient, please kill the zombies around. It"d be a great help for the residents in order to resume production. Don"t forget to eradicate whoever is guilty from Boss Sun"s faction."
Zhu Changqing was speechless. Jiang Lius.h.i.+ disregarded his pleas! He wanted to persuade him, but Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had already jumped on his minibus.
Zhu Changqing just opened his mouth, but he didn"t say anything. He knew that he couldn"t persuade Jiang Lius.h.i.+. After thinking of this, he was sure that Jiang Lius.h.i.+ believed he was a failure of an officer. He didn"t have any real power at all. Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had taken a ridiculous decision, and he didn"t have the ability to stop him.
In this post-apocalyptic world, Zhu Changqing couldn"t send news out. He could only receive communication from major security zones by radio broadcasts.
At that time, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said again from the window, "Captain Zhu, please take care of my aunt and cousin. They live on North Street No. 38. I"ll probably be away for five or six days."
Zhu Changqing nodded, and then Jiang Lius.h.i.+ left at once.
"Xiyu, help me with the search of Chu Chongshan"s lackeys," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said emotionlessly.
"Brother, they"ve probably hidden," Jiang Zhuying said.
"It doesn"t matter, we will find them," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ said with confidence.
