"How is Captain Jiang's injury?"
"They are just superficial injuries. They will be fine after a few days of rest." Jiang Xingzhou said, "Thank you very much, Captain Lin, for this time. If Captain Lin hadn't rescued us, Captain Xu and I might not have been able to come back."
After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if Captain Lin was injured later."
"It's just a minor injury. Although the zombie has powerful attack power, it moves surprisingly slowly, so we're lucky that we came back alive," Lin Qingqing said lightly.
"I see, that's really good luck." Jiang Xingzhou smiled.
"If Captain Lin needs anything in the future, as long as it is within my ability, I, Jiang Xingzhou, will absolutely be obliged to do so"!
"Then thank you Captain Jiang first. I hope Captain Jiang will take care of himself in the future. If there is really a need, I will definitely go to Captain Jiang!" Seeing Jiang Xingzhou's firm attitude, Lin Qingqing was not polite to him.
"Of course, Captain Lin, you're welcome. By the way, maybe we can work together before long," Jiang Xingzhou thought for a while and then said.
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Lin Qingqing agreed, but she was secretly wondering about his intention: work together? Is this Jiang Xingzhou's intention or the base's plan?
"Then I won't disturb Captain Lin's rest." After all that needed to be said, Jiang Xingzhou stood up and left.
Lin Qingqing and Lei Min saw the two of them to the door and came back together after seeing them leave.
"Captain, what do you mean by Jiang Xingzhou's words?" Lei Min also heard something in his words.
"Jiang Xingzhou is from the base. He said he would work with us. What do you think that means?"
"Does the base want to recruit us?"
"Roughly the same".
"We wouldn't have been targeted by them a long time ago, right? Is this why the base went around in such a big circle to get to know us?"
"It should be right. The reason for selling us guns and teaching us marksmanship was probably the intention of the base."
"Then should we join? Why do I feel like this base is a bit unreliable?" Lei Min scratched his head and said.
"The other party hasn't mentioned it yet, so let's just pretend we don't know."
Knowing the other party's purpose, Lin Qingqing felt confident.
It is impossible for them to join Shuangqiao Base, but I don't know if the base will take coercive measures if the show of goodwill is unsuccessful.
"Actually, none of this is important. The most important thing right now is the mutated zombies outside. You have also seen with your own eyes the strength of the mutated second-level zombies. If we encounter such mutated zombies again, I am afraid that Minmin and I will have to work together to deal with them. Got it."
"What should I do?"
"The only way is to improve your strength as soon as possible"!
"Everyone usually practices meditation. I will take on another mission in two days. This time we will go by ourselves and try to gain as much practical experience as possible. As long as we are strong, we will be able to fight no matter what accidents we encounter in the future."
Lin Qingqing is not interested in joining Shuangqiao Base. In her opinion, no force is as important as her own strength. A group of weaklings get together, no matter how many there are, they can't deal with high-level zombies.
They don't need to join forces with others. That is the way of survival for the weak. They need to be strong. Only by becoming strong can they have more freedom and the right to choose.
"Okay Captain"!
"I understand Captain"!
Lei Min and Wen Ling responded in unison.

In an apartment that looked extremely ordinary from the outside, Qiao Yuanda was standing at the floor-to-ceiling window looking out the window. The cigarette in his hand had accumulated a long layer of ash, and there was still a little sparkle at the base.
In the living room behind him, there were four people sitting or standing. In addition to his son Qiao Yunbin, there was also the bald Lao Yang, his personal secretary Xiao Wang, and a middle-aged man who looked lean and elegant.
"Father……"
Seeing that the cigarette in Qiao Yuanda's hand was about to burn his fingers, Qiao Yunbin, who was standing not far behind him, couldn't help but exclaimed softly.
Qiao Yuanda came to his senses, turned around and pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray casually, regardless of the ashes scattered on his expensive coat.
"Lao Liang really did this"?
Glancing at the lean middle-aged man, Qiao Yuanda asked.
His voice was hoarse and tired, with a hint of disappointment in it.
The middle-aged man nodded and said nothing.
Qiao Yuanda slowly closed his eyes and stood there for a while. When he opened his eyes again, there was a trace of cruelty in his eyes.
Except for Qiao Yunbin, these people are all his confidants and his right-hand men who have been with him for more than ten years before the end.
"Since Lao Liang has thought of betraying his master, don't blame me for not missing our old relationship." Qiao Yuanda sighed.
"Old Yang, do a good job of investigating the superpowers under your command. You would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. If you don't have enough people, recruit some new ones. The ones who have come recently are quite good, and it doesn't matter if they have better conditions."
What Lao Yang holds in his hand is the most important card in his doomsday, so he must not be careless.
After giving the first order, he said to the middle-aged man who had not spoken a word: "Xu Yi, continue to pay attention to what's going on with Lao Liang, and find a reason to send his people out a few more times in the next few days. , especially the two elites under him."
"Yes, Mr. Qiao."
"Yun Bin, you..." Looking at his last son, Qiao Yuanda paused, then he sighed silently, and then said: "Don't go out of the base in the near future. Follow the boating people and take care of yourself." Practice your marksmanship and stop looking for your women."
"Father! I..."
"Okay! Let's go and do our work. Secretary Wang will stay for a while." Qiao Yuanda said and turned around and waved his hand.
The three of them looked at each other and stood up one after another.
Before leaving, Lao Yang patted Qiao Yunbin on the shoulder: "Yunbin, come with me to find Pingzhou."
"...Okay, Uncle Yang." Qiao Yunbin knew that there was no room for turning around. He also wanted to help his father, but his father didn't know why he excluded him this time.
When he arrived at the door, Lao Yang nodded slightly to Xu Yi and left with Qiao Yunbin.
Xu Yi stood there and watched the two people leaving, with an unknown light shining in the fox eyes behind the flat mirror.
After a while, Secretary Wang opened the door and came out. When he saw Xu Yi at the door, he was surprised: "Why is Mr. Xu still here? Do you have something to see Mr. Qiao? But Mr. Qiao has already taken a rest."
"I'm here specially waiting for Secretary Wang." Xu Yi said with a smile: "Secretary Wang, thank you for your hard work. How about having a drink together?"
"This..." Secretary Wang was a little hesitant. He knew that Xu Yi's relationship with Lao Yang and Lao Liang was not very good, and he had always stayed away from the bad relations between them. As soon as something happened to Lao Liang, Xu Yi Treat yourself to a drink…
"It's not a big deal, but there are still a few doubts about Lao Liang, but I don't have definite evidence, so I want to talk to Secretary Wang first."
This is the reason that Xu Yi has thought about for a long time. Secretary Wang has been Qiao Yuanda's personal secretary for nearly twenty years. He can be said to be the person Qiao Yuanda trusts most. What he says will definitely be understood by Qiao Yuanda. Be more trusting.
"Then let Mr. Xu spend the money." Secretary Wang followed Xu Yi obediently, but he was thinking in his heart: Mr. Qiao just told him that he had been in contact with Xu Yi and Lao Liang a lot in the past few days. He didn't expect the opportunity to come like this. .
