I had to speed up if we were to catch up... What do we do now?\" Kate curiously asked as she put the car into park.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the person inside the car showed no sign of leaving, Xiaoyun took a pistol out of the glove box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's check who's inside then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two got out of the car and slowly approached the car in front of them, they were surprised to see a boy who looked barely out of high school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His leather jacket with chains around his neck clearly shows an attempt to make himself look older and tougher, but his face and pale skin show the opposite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get out of the car and raise your hand into the air,\" Kate warned as she pointed a gun at the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To their surprise, the boy remained calm as he opened the door and got out, just as she had asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"M'lady, how can I help you?\" The boy asked, staring right into Kate's eye as he tried to move closer to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could walk one step closer, Kate moved her gun directly against his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn't I tell you to raise your hand into the air? Who told you to ask a question?\" Kate asked coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woah, look like we got roses with a thorn.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy takes a step back as he finally raises her hand into the air, but the way he talks irritates Kate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, it didn't hinder her professionalism as Xiaoyun watched her question him on the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know how dangerous you were driving? You were brake-checking people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My apology. I was just too stunned by your beauty when I saw your face in my rear window.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the boy's attempted pickup line, Xiaoyun couldn't help but laugh. But Kate ignored it as she moved on to the next part of her questioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are you from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm from my mom——Okay, okay, I'm from Luoping. I just moved here a few weeks ago after my dad was stationed here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy quickly changed his answer after seeing Kate move her finger to the trigger as a threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's your name? Who's your dad, and where did you get the car?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My name is Lin Zhangfei. My dad is a major in the army, and he brought this car with his money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy lifted his chin slightly as if proud of what his dad had achieved despite saying out loud that the car didn't belong to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh, a boy with a silver spoon in his mouth... Can't even be proud of himself.\" Xiaoyun murmured as he started to get bored watching the two talking back and forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you just say?\" Zhangfei's face turned red as he turned towards Xiaoyun in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where's your permit?\" Kate asked, interrupting the two from interacting as she still had the gun up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhangfei quickly calmed down as he reached into his pocket for his wallet and handed it over to Kate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of precaution, Kate took a few steps back before lowering her gun, and she began checking his wallet for a permit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to her surprise, the name on the permit wasn't the boy's name. Rather, it was someone they had just interacted with yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your dad's name is Lin Tian?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, you know him?\" Zhengfei asked, his face looking a little surprised that Kate could recognize the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kate quickly turned towards Xiaoyun, whose face darkened for a second before returning to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not really... Okay, since you don't have a permit to drive this car, it will be confiscated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Confiscated? Hell no! That's my dad's car. I can't let you guys take——Of course, you guys can take it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I'm so sorry for driving the car without a permit. I'm really, really sorry for breaking the law.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhengfei quickly apologized, changing his attitude as Kate poked his head with the gun again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know, if you just cooperated, this wouldn't have been so difficult... Anyway, here's my business card if you want to submit a complaint. You are free to go now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kate quickly waved her hand to dismiss Zhengfei, who left with a sour taste as there was nothing much he could do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are the chances...\" Kate murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... Speaking of confiscating, that reminded me of something I need to do after I get back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After one more day at the outpost, Xiaoyun left earlier than the promised one week as he had too many things to do back in Luoping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xiaoyun even dropped off his stuff back at home, he called Renqin and Yueyue into the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good morning, Mr. Mayor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Renqin tried to get Xiaoyun's attention, but he remained still in his seat, looking a little zoned out. So he just took a seat and waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for a few minutes, the door was knocked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoyun, what are you calling me for?\" Yueyue asked as she stepped inside the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun finally snapped back to the moment as the two were now right in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want you guys to start investigating the army and the soldiers... I know I told you guys before to stay out of it, but I realized my mistake.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two looked at each other for a second, then turned their attention back to Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who do you want us to do it?\" Yueyue asked first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want the both of you to work together to solve this one. But I was thinking of having Renqin start investigating the troop's activity outside of Luoping, and Yueyue, you investigate troops that are in Luoping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both nodded in agreement, seeing nothing wrong with Xiaoyun's plan. But Renqin was a little concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure, Mr. Xiaoyun? Wouldn't this cause distrust within the military?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They will understand if they got nothing to hide. I should have done this from the beginning... Renqin, here's a case I want you to deal with right now regarding a corruption case in the Guangdong outpost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Renqin accepted the document and left the room, immediately going to work, leaving Xiaoyun and Yueyue alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did something happen in Guangdong?\" Yueyue curiously asked as she moved her seat next to Xiaoyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a small corruption case... You don't have to worry about it that much——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it really is that small, then why did you call the both of us? Come on, Xiaoyun, be honest with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a short silence, Xiaoyun finally couldn't handle the pressure, and he only revealed the story partially.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just some of them in the army carrying out policy in their ways to pocket the money for themselves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xiaoyun's face look a little upset, Yueyue didn't try to ask again. Instead, she tries to distract him with something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoyun, you want to hear some good news?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun looked up at Yueyue with a confused face. He just couldn't think of anything that was going well for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was able to set up a plot to track down the secret society that you had been looking for——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, wait, you said you found the secret society?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun interrupted Yueyue to ask again, as he couldn't believe his ear hearing what she had just said out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah. They're located in Longxue island, south of where we are and west of Zhongshan city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sure it's reliable? An island that close to us?\" Xiaoyun asked as he looked at the map on the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The island was right in the center of all the major cities of the Pearl River Delta, and more importantly, it was only a thirty-minute drive from where they were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm certain it's at least 90% reliable...Two of the agents that we sent even brought back pictures of trucks crossing the bridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, check it yourself. It's clearly food or some sort of supplies they needed to continue with their... experiment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun looked down at the picture that Yueyue had handed over, he saw several of the trucks she had mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But more importantly, he noticed that the trucks' top right corner all had the same logo that he had seen when he was almost assassinated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We just need a plan to get inside... However, I had discussed it with my agents, and none of them could come up with any ideas to gather more information from the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They have security at both bridge entrances and security cameras, even in some of the hidden places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's almost impossible to peek at what's happening inside without being caught by them... I was thinking, maybe you can come up with an idea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Give me some time to think...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun sat still in silence again, looking at the map as he tried his best to think of a way to get to the island without being caught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there were only two entrances to the island, one on the north and one on the south, with all four sides surrounded by water. It was practically almost a perfect spot in the apocalypse to defend for such easy chokepoints.\u003C\u002Fp>",1564,"2026-06-10T06:59:31.433Z",1,"novelbin.me","1df09595c541f276773ccf3b83568690f9730e1858cbb1c9a74b62532791159f","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-328","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-326",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
