Someone also brought you up at the meeting today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel Hale said during dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s Nina’s first day back. Why would anyone bring her up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera Coleman immediately grew wary upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It wasn’t anything bad.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel Hale hadn’t expected that particular person to speak up for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that during the meeting, Sheldon Holden had brought up the matter of Liam Grant’s injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He argued that Liam Grant hadn’t used his full strength, that he was going easy on a female Superpower User, and she had exploited the opening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably because he had already gotten the others on his side, quite a few people voiced their agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, Samson Thorne from the command war zone shot him down with a single sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Samson Thorne?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina Jacobs seemed to recall the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had seen that name on the list of casualties at the City D Base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed he had an accident on his way back to the command war zone to report after the City D Base was completed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He said, ’If you’re not good enough, stop making excuses. There’s no shame in losing to a female Superpower User. The shameful thing is refusing to admit you lost.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere was quite awkward after Samson Thorne finished speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Liam Grant himself wasn’t present. Otherwise, he would have been so ashamed he’d want to crawl into a hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well said! Now that’s what you call having class.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo Hale practically wanted to give the man a round of applause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He also said we should focus on cultivating talented Superpower Users like Nina Jacobs. If you’re interested, you can take up a position at the new base anytime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel Hale said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina Jacobs had brought him a lot of credit at the meeting today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he was also proud of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, Nina, why don’t you consider it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera Coleman was still a little hopeful that Nina would agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Nina Jacobs shook her head. \"I have no plans for that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her answer was what everyone had expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera Coleman sighed softly and said helplessly, \"I knew it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Early the next morning.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A commotion erupted outside the door, followed immediately by someone banging loudly on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See? I told you trouble was coming for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherry Renner, who had just woken up, heard the noise and immediately poked her head out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soundproofing in the temporary suite was mediocre, so everyone inside could hear the curses from outside:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You dare to hit someone but not show your face? My son is a hero who saves people! Is this any way to treat a hero?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly! My son was kind enough to go easy on you, but you beat him up like that! Do you have any conscience?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard you’re just bitter because my brother broke up with you. Are you that desperate to be my sister-in-law? I think you’re just a woman nobody wants!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three people outside kept cursing, and Leo Hale, furious, moved to open the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Nina Jacobs stopped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let them continue,\" Nina Jacobs said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can they twist the truth like that? Aren’t you going to yell back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo Hale gestured toward the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Nina has so much self-control!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we ignore them, someone else will deal with it,\" Nina Jacobs said unhurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Justin Lawson and Myra Lawson lived diagonally across from them; there was no way they couldn’t hear the commotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crowd must have already gathered outside to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, even those who didn’t know what had happened before probably knew everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry. Your Uncle Hale has made preparations. He won’t let you suffer this injustice for nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera Coleman also seemed surprisingly calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Hale??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina Jacobs then realized that Daniel Hale seemed to have left early in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, on the first floor of the shelter, a video of a fight suddenly began playing on a large screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screen, originally the library’s promotional display, was several meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had now been repurposed to display notices for the survivors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The video now playing had already attracted a large crowd of survivors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t that guy the strongest Fire Element Superpower User in the shelter? Who dares to challenge him one-on-one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t know? I was there to see it live. Keep watching. That female Superpower User is also a Fire Element...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a minute. Weren’t people saying that Grant guy was going easy on her? It looks like he’s getting completely thrashed...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And she clearly gave him three free moves. She might as well have just stood there and let him hit her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pah! What a loser!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd in front of the large screen was abuzz with discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far away, Daniel Hale and Ian Chandler quietly slipped away from the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t expect Uncle Hale to be so prepared,\" Ian Chandler said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way the video was filmed was also quite clever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether because of the distant angle or intentional blurring, Nina Jacobs’s face couldn’t be seen clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been in Daniel Hale’s possession the whole time, but he hadn’t brought it out immediately to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was likely waiting for the situation to escalate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I suppose this gives Nina Jacobs some vindication.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His contacts had informed him about Liam Grant’s family early that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally planned to hold onto the video for another two days and release it at the right moment, but it seemed the time had come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The video was also edited so it wouldn’t cause any trouble for Nina Jacobs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this matter had also been reported to Justin Lawson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina Jacobs had expected the three members of the Grant Family outside to keep cursing for a while longer, but they soon fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first person to come and stop them was Hannah Grant’s boyfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah Grant was unwilling to believe her boyfriend’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I told you, stop making a fool of yourselves here! Everyone in the shelter knows about your brother’s business now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah Grant wanted to ask what was going on, but people around them had already started pointing and whispering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This family is so shameless. Their son lost that badly, and they still have the nerve to curse someone out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know, right? They used their ’number one in combat power’ title to curse out the food delivery staff every day. I heard they even demanded the kitchen make them special nutritious meals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"’Number one in combat power’? What a joke. He can’t even beat a young girl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, please make way. Public disturbances are forbidden in the shelter...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While everyone was talking, a guard had already arrived with a team to maintain order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Folks, the shelter has rules against causing public disturbances. Serious offenders will be expelled from the shelter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chester Pearson had traded his wheelchair for crutches. He watched Jed Grant and the other two with a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, the three of them were being restrained by the guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can you treat the family of a hero like this? My son has saved so many people! You people in this shelter are bullies!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jed Grant shouted indignantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After an investigation, it was found that Liam Grant, in pursuit of his own selfish interests during a mission, acted in a way that endangered the lives of other team members. Furthermore, this was not the first time. The rescue team has issued a statement stripping Liam Grant of his position as sub-detachment leader and expelling him from the team!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chester Pearson waved a stamped document in front of the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faces of Jed Grant and the other two instantly turned ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could this be? My brother... My brother is amazing...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah Grant refused to believe it. In her eyes, her brother, Liam Grant, was supposed to be a powerhouse, worshipped by all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you get something wrong? You’re expelling my son from the rescue team? You’ll live to regret this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Susan Warner, however, recovered quickly and pointed at Chester Pearson, cursing.\u003C\u002Fp>",1403,"2026-05-29T03:44:18.636Z","2026-06-01T04:29:06.436Z",1,"novelbin.me","0585eb0ab2c1f23d9b43742364e04b133e60f60f85e5731e81c90646de95091a","after-i-fully-prepared-for-the-apocalypse-the-un-chapter-105","after-i-fully-prepared-for-the-apocalypse-the-un-chapter-103",312,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-i-fully-prepared-for-the-apocalypse-the-un-cover.jpg"]
