The waste is going to strike back

Chapter 217 Acting Alone



Chapter 217 Acting Alone

"Where are Song Ziwen and the others?" Mu Xin only saw the jeep but didn't see the other group of people, so he couldn't help but ask.

"They will meet us at the exit of the base." Shalai said to Mu Xin while wiping the gun in his hand.

Mu Xin and his crew only took two cars this time, and there were less than ten people in total.

Mu Xin originally only wanted to take four people with him, but to be on the safe side, he took five more people with him.

"Look, the deputy commander and his men are here." Shang Junming said, pointing at the jeep that was slowly driving towards them.

Feng Chaoshang was fiddling with his computer. When he heard Shang Junming say this, he raised his head.

Fu Sanjin parked the car to the side, and Mu Xin and others got out of the car.

"Deputy Commander, I always feel that there is something strange about Xiahou Shuo. I request to send a remote-controlled micro-UAV to explore the way ahead of us." Feng Chaoshang, like Mu Xin, still had some doubts about Xiahou Shuo's remarks, so after thinking about it for several times, he finally made up his mind and came up with a foolproof plan.

Mu Xin thought this method was feasible, so he agreed to Feng Chaoshang's application.

The remote-controlled micro drone was invented by Feng Chaoshang. It can be used to get a bird's eye view of the ground from high altitudes. It is a very good tool for scouting terrain and checking for zombies.

Although this micro drone is only the size of a palm, it has a built-in bomb and can be blown up by remote control, making it a long-range weapon.

Feng Chaoshang took out a remote-controlled micro drone from his backpack and controlled it with the handle. The drone gradually flew off the ground and disappeared from their sight.

"Okay, let's get in the car. Let Chao Shang's drone explore the way first, and we'll follow behind the drone."

"Yes."

The two cars of people set off like this.

Naturally, they would encounter some wandering and scattered zombies along the way. In order to save time, they did not choose to kill them. Anyway, the car speed was not very slow, and those zombies probably could not catch up with them.

On the other side, Yan Shaohui slept for more than two hours before waking up.

Yan Shaohui finally had a good sleep. When he woke up, he found that Mu Xin was not there. Yan Shaohui did not think much about it. He thought that Mu Xin probably slept with him for a while and then went to do his own things.

Yan Shaohui got up from the bed sleepily, then went downstairs to eat something and visit the base headquarters.

"Brother, why did you get up just now?" Yan Shaowei had just opened the door and walked in. Seeing Yan Shaohui drinking water in casual clothes, he asked in surprise.

"Is there something wrong?" Yan Shaohui put down the water cup and asked his younger brother with a raised eyebrow.

"Do you know where my sister-in-law went?"

Yan Shaohui was puzzled. "Didn't he go to the headquarters? Why are you asking this?"

Yan Shaowei had an expression of 'I knew it would be like this', he rolled his eyes and said, "I'm telling you, my sister-in-law has left the base with a small group of people!"

When Yan Shaohui heard Yan Shaowei say this, his eyes widened in shock, and then he walked in front of Yan Shaowei, "What did you say? How is it possible?!"

"How is it impossible?" Yan Shaowei's expression was very serious. He took out his tablet and looked at the video surveillance footage of the gate of the base.

"Why don't you open it and see for yourself?" Yan Shaowei handed the tablet to Yan Shaohui.

Yan Shaowei took the tablet and watched Mu Xin and the others on the video surveillance camera standing at the gate of the base, talking about something, and then drove away in two cars.

"Do you know where they went?" Yan Shaohui's face looked obviously not so good.

Yan Shaohui didn't mind Mu Xin's special solo action, but he minded that Mu Xin didn't tell him when he was doing it alone. This made Yan Shaohui feel that he was unimportant, so Yan Shaohui was so angry.

"It's not very clear now, but the two jeeps they drove have tracking systems. I can check and should be able to find it." Yan Shaowei replied.

Yan Shaohui nodded, "I'll go with you. I'll change my clothes and leave."

Yan Shaohui changed his clothes quickly, and then he and Yan Shaowei left quickly.

They went to the control room and saw that the two jeeps driven by Mu Xin and his companions were heading towards the Yagura base.

"Why do Mu Xin and the others want to go to Yagura Base?" Yan Shaohui frowned, looking puzzled.

"There's no way of knowing." Yan Shaowei shook his head and replied.

Yan Shaohui stared fixedly at the two flashing red dots on the monitor, then straightened up and turned to leave.

"Brother, where are you going?" Yan Shaowei quickly grabbed Yan Shaohui's wrist and asked.

Yan Shaohui shook off Yan Shaowei's hand and said, "I'm going to find someone."

"Brother, the base cannot have both leaders absent at once at this stage. It will be a mess." Yan Shaowei disagreed with Yan Shaohui's approach.

How could Yan Shaohui not know this?

But he had his own thoughts. Yan Shaohui felt uneasy about Mu Xin's unauthorized action. Mu Xin had been on missions with others before, and Yan Shaohui didn't have such a mentality before, but now it was very strange. Yan Shaohui felt uneasy and always felt that something would happen when Mu Xin and his friends went to Yacang Base.

So Yan Shaohui wanted to follow them to take a look.

Although the base is important, his lover is equally important.

If something happened to Mu Xin, what would he do with the rest of his life?

Yan Shaohui clenched his fists, and his decision to follow Mu Xin and the others to Yacang Base became even firmer.

"I trust you regarding the base's affairs." Yan Shaohui patted Yan Shaowei on the shoulder and said.

Yan Shaowei smiled bitterly, "Brother, please don't be like this... I can't bear this kind of responsibility."

Yan Shaohui's face was serious. "If I say you can do it, then you can do it. You are a descendant of our Yan family. There is no such thing as a Yan family member being afraid. Do you know that?"

Seeing that Yan Shaohui said so, Yan Shaowei naturally could not refute Yan Shaohui anymore. He could only nod and accept Yan Shaohui's commission this time.

Yan Shaohui briefly explained to Yan Shaowei, and then went straight back to Yan's house to pack his things and prepare to set off.

When Yan Shaohui went to the storage room to look for something, the sword that was originally placed together with his Dragon Flame Ancient Sword was nowhere to be found. He knew that Mu Xin must have taken the Jibing Sword away.

Yan Shaohui rolled his eyes, and then he also put on the Dragon Flame Ancient Sword.

In addition to taking his own weapons, Yan Shaohui also took some guns and ammunition, some water and dry food, and then drove a jeep on the road.

At sunset, Mu Xin and his companions decided to camp there to rest for one night and then set off again the next day.

Feng Chaoshang had been fiddling with his remote-controlled micro drone. Mu Xin walked over to him and squatted down. "How's it going? Did you find anything unusual?"

Feng Chaoshang shook his head. "Not yet. We only detected infrared images of a dozen people in the Yagura base, and they were unarmed civilians. It seems that Ming Xiche really led his people to retreat."

Mu Xin nodded. "We should be able to reach Yagura Base tomorrow. Let's withdraw the drone first. We will need it tonight to help us check if there are any zombies around."

"Yes."

Feng Chaoshang took the handle and started to control the drone back.

Mu Xin looked up at the sky dyed with fire, but his thoughts unconsciously drifted to Yan Shaohui who was far away in the First Base.

"I wonder if he noticed I was missing."

Shalai handed a freshly opened can to Muxin, "What do you mean 'not found'?"

Mu Xin shook his head and said, "Nothing." Then he took the can and started eating.

Feng Chaoshang, who was controlling the controller with his head down, chuckled after hearing the conversation between the two people, "This is our deputy commander missing his lover~ Oh, the sour smell of love~"

Shalai nodded meaningfully, then said "oh" with an exaggerated expression.

Mu Xin was teased by his two teammates, and he smiled helplessly and shook his head.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb. Eat quickly! Then go and rest!"

Mu Xin took two cans from other teammates and stuffed them into the hands of Sha Lai and Feng Chaoshang, asking them to shut up and stop gossiping.

Sha Lai and Feng Chao Shang were also tactful. After teasing their deputy commander, they knew when to stop and started eating obediently.

After the team members had finished eating one after another, Mu Xin began to assign people to be on duty in the evening.

While he was distributing the food, Mu Xin suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Wood."

When Mu Xin heard the voice, his expression suddenly became complicated. He swallowed and turned around.

How come he heard Yan Shaohui's voice? Could it be that he was hallucinating?

Just as Mu Xin was comforting himself, he suddenly saw Feng Chaoshang, who was standing opposite him, pointing at him, or rather, pointing behind him.

Mu Xin frowned and then turned away.

Yan Shaohui's figure slowly appeared in his dim vision, getting closer and closer.

It was not until Yan Shaohui was only a few inches away from him that Mu Xin finally realized that Yan Shaohui was following him!

Yan Shaohui's face did not look very good in the dim environment, and with his expressionless face, he looked like a living devil.

Mu Xin smiled awkwardly, "Shaohui, why are you here?"

Yan Shaohui raised his eyebrows and said calmly, as if he was not angry at all, "I don't think there is any rule that prevents me from coming."

But Mu Xin knew Yan Shaohui too well. When Yan Shaohui was really angry, he would become very approachable. If he didn't take action, nothing would happen, but if he took action, there would be countless casualties.

"Uh..." Mu Xin looked a little embarrassed, and then he turned around to seek help from his teammates, but he didn't know that the teammates who were originally standing behind him had already run away without a trace.

This made Mu Xin secretly curse these teammates in his heart, saying that they were a bunch of fence-sitters. When they saw Yan Shaohui coming, they were as cowardly as eggplants hit by frost.

Yan Shaohui chuckled, then stretched out his long arms to hold Mu Xin's waist and pulled him towards him.

"Tell me, why did you act alone this time? And why are you keeping it a secret and refusing to tell me?"

Mu Xin only felt that his waist was painfully squeezed by Yan Shaohui. He hissed and cursed inwardly: "Can you not squeeze me so tight? It hurts!"

Yan Shaohui relaxed a little after hearing this, but still held Mu Xin tightly in his arms.

"Okay, can you talk now?"

Mu Xin's eyes were a little hesitant. Seeing Yan Shaohui's insistence, he had no choice but to tell him everything about Xiahou Shuo sending him an email.

After hearing this, Yan Shaohui suddenly tapped Mu Xin on the forehead with his fingers.

"What are you doing?" Mu Xin covered his forehead with his hands, looking unhappy.

Yan Shaohui took away Mu Xin's hand that was covering his forehead, rubbed his forehead, and said to Mu Xin unhappily: "Why didn't you tell me about this? What if something happened?"

"I don't think Xiahou Shuo could lie to me."

Seeing how much Mu Xin trusted Xiahou Shuo, Yan Shaohui really didn't want to remind Mu Xin of what Xiahou Shuo did to Mu Xin in Mu Xin's previous life.

"You can know a person's face but not his heart. Besides, it's hard to change human nature." Yan Shaohui could only say to Mu Xin in a tactful way.

Mu Xin frowned, "Are you saying that Xiahou Shuo lied to me?"

"I always feel that he has other intentions and is not well-intentioned when he suddenly sends you an email," said Yan Shaohui.

Yan Shaohui himself was unsure. On the one hand, he didn't want Mu Xin to be deceived, but on the other hand, he felt that since Mu Xin accepted Xiahou Shuo as his friend, it meant that he had let go of the grudges and hatreds from his previous life and really wanted to start a good life again.

Mu Xin leaned against Yan Shaohui's chest and sighed, "Actually, I have some questions in my heart that no one can help me solve, but my intuition tells me that I need to go there so that I can completely solve the knot in my heart."

Yan Shaohui looked at Mu Xin's frown, thought for a while, then sighed, "I see, I'll go with you."

Mu Xin pushed Yan Shaohui's chest and said, "Hey, have you ever thought about what to do with the base?"

"How can this world stop moving without me?" Yan Shaohui sneered.

In his heart, no matter how important the base is, it is not as important as his partner.

It seems like he wants beauty over the kingdom.

Mu Xin laughed, "Can you please stop being so willful about this kind of thing? You know that without the base you will be in chaos sooner or later."

"I believe in my brother's ability. With him around, we can still hold on for ten days or half a month." Yan Shaohui patted Mu Xin's shoulder, allowing Mu Xin to put his mind at ease.

If all else fails, there is Yan Longping. The base used to be his anyway.

Yan Shaohui thought rather unscrupulously.

"What are your plans now?" Yan Shaohui finally got to the point.

"We'll rest here for the night, and then we'll go to Yagura Base early the next morning to find out what's going on."

"Ah."

The next morning, everyone was on the road. Yan Shaohui drove the car, which was loaded with firewood. There were two other cars following behind their car.

It took them another seven or eight hours before they finally reached the vicinity of the Yagura base.

Feng Chaoshang sat on the roof of the car, holding the remote control in his hand, and then controlled the micro drone. In front of Feng Chaoshang, there was a laptop computer, and the video image reflected by the drone was displayed on the monitor of the laptop computer.
