Chapter 919: Plan B
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Li Yue Shan, the head of the intelligence department, was standing three meters away from Wu Chengyue, reporting to him. Because of Wu Yueling, he didn’t dare to come close to Wu Chengyue.
“We have already located them, but we don’t know what kind of weapons they have at the moment,” said Li Yue Shan.
His people didn’t approach the enemies, in case they became alert. So, they could only see the weapons held in those people’s hands, but didn’t know what other weapons they had.
Wu Chengyue heard him and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “Alright, I get it. Keep an eye on them. Let me know if you find anything else.”
“Yes sir!” Li Yue Shan quickly left.
Wu Yueling relaxed her body slightly as only she and her father were left in the room. She was at home; however, the house had become a little strange to her, as she hadn’t lived there for over a month. She felt uncomfortable at first, so she made her father hold her the entire time.
Every time Wu Chengyue’s subordinates came to talk to him, she would tighten her body or find somewhere to hide.
Wu Chengyue noticed that she hid under the table or behind the couch every time, so he held her in his arms to make her feel safe. It was better than letting her hide under the table after all.
At present, as no stranger was in the room, Wu Yueling relaxed her vigilance. Wu Chengyue put her on the ground and told her to sit on the couch.
“Can you sit on the couch with your little friend? Daddy needs to work.”
Hearing him, Wu Yueling carried her furless little friend to the couch and sat down, then looked at the ugly rabbit with a struggling look on her face.
Wu Chengyue looked at her while thinking. Currently, the span of time that Ling Ling could spend without him was getting longer and longer. He needed to let her adapt to the environment as soon as possible, or he might not be able to leave home to deal with those uninvited people in his base.
He prepared to deal with those people by himself. They were mostly at level four and five, and were highly armed. A couple of them were probably at level-six. He wanted them to disappear quietly, so he couldn’t send a lot of people for that mission. After consideration, he decided to do it himself.
He wanted to know how good were the weapons that Huaxia Base had developed.
…
After another failed negotiation with Xiao Yunlong, Wei Haichao and the others calmly returned to where they lived. They didn’t even know how many meetings they had had with Sea City Base leaders. They had all the patience anyway.
“Have they found out our real purpose? Otherwise, why can’t our people sneak into this base?” Hou Guozhong sat on the couch and said uncertainly.
“How can that be possible? Why would they waste time meeting us if they know about that? This is obviously not good for them. If they knew about our real purpose, they should have kicked us out of the base or just accepted our terms,” Wei Haichao disagreed.
“Are your people capable enough? How come they can’t even make it into the base? You should have brought them straight in. Why did you leave them out there anyway?” Li Zhengye said scornfully.
“How could we bring so many people in? Are Sea City Base people blind? Even if we can bring our people in, what about the weapons? Besides, how should we explain to Sea City people when our people leave to carry out the mission?” Sensing the scorn in Li Zhengye’s eyes, Hou Guozhong responded with hostility.
Clearly, Sky Fire Base wanted Huaxia Base to suffer some losses. Last time when Huaxia Base suffered the ma.s.sive zombie attack, the Sky Fire Base people were nearby but didn’t help. Huaxia Base didn’t care about that though. As a powerful base, Huaxia Base didn’t need the help from Sky Fire Base, which was only an average base.
“What on earth is going on? Haven’t you found anything yet? We need to come up with a solution as soon as possible. Sea City Base people are losing patience,” Bao Chengzhi from Mongols Base said expressionlessly.
They planned to get the names and addresses of the researchers who had developed the soil remedy once they arrived at Sea City Base, then control a small gate that was poorly guarded and let their people in.
Each base had four main entrances—located in the East, West, South, and North—and a lot of small gates. Some small gates were always poorly guarded.
After entering the base, they did get the name list of the people who were studying the soil remedy, but didn’t find a gate to let their people in. Every small gate was strictly guarded. People needed to go through body searches before coming in, which would expose their real purpose. Subsequently, a fight would be started and noises would be created.
Therefore, the people on the outside hadn’t found a way in. The residents from each back had records, so they couldn’t pretend to join Sea City Base and make their way in.
They couldn’t go over the wall, as the wall top was guarded as well.
“How about we use Plan B?” Wei Haichao said while frowning with a sullen look.
The others looked at him silently. Du Kunsheng had a sharp beam of light flas.h.i.+ng across his eyes as he responded, “If they find out about that plan, I think everyone would need to suffer consequences. If Wu Chengyue woke up one day to find that you had joined hands and brought zombies and mutated animals to his base, he would crush your bases.”
He said ‘you’, without including himself. He didn’t approve of that plan after all.
“Wu Chengyue has lost his mind. We don’t even know where he is now. To wake him up, people need to bring him under control first. No one is strong enough to do that. How would one knock him out?” Li Zhengye laughed carelessly, then couldn’t help but taunt Du Kunsheng, “Du Kunsheng, why are you always such a coward? No wonder you were suppressed by Gao Haoyun the whole time.”
People hadn’t yet found out about what caused superpowered people to lose control, not to mention a cure for that. The only way to wake up the maniacal superpowered people was to knock them out.
“I am cautious. I might be a coward, but I’m still alive,” Du Kunsheng snorted coldly.
“Bao, what do you think? Should we use plan B?” Wei Haichao turned to Bao Chengzhi, who was staying silent. The latter shrugged and said, “I’m cool with it.”
“In that case, I won’t be a part of your action. Don’t worry, I won’t tell them about your plan,” Du Kunsheng stood up and put on his black army cap, then turned and walked out of the room.
He didn’t mind causing Sea City Base some small trouble, but he would not risk the lives of the innocent people in the base to get what he wanted. At the same time, he believed that turning Sea City Base into an arch-enemy would do him no good.
The others quietly watched him leave, after which, Li Zhengye asked Wei Haichao, “Are we letting him leave just like this? Won’t he snitch?”
Wei Haichao shook his head and said, “He won’t. He may not want to be enemies with Sea City Base, but he doesn’t dare to be enemies with us either.”
“He doesn’t dare?” For Sea City Base, he didn’t want to be their enemies, and for Huaxia Base, he didn’t dare to make himself an enemy.
Li Zhengye failed to understand him at first.
“Because his base is close to Huaxia Base… Chief Li, when have you stopped being smart?” Bao Chengzhi laughed and said jokingly.
