Go take a shower and go to sleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi let go of her hand and Leyan hopped off his lap, he was genuinely surprised by their sudden change of attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just wait until the weekend. You’re going to need to prepare yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yueyue’s ominous warning sent a chill down his spine, but he didn’t say anything back as they all headed upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How nice of them... Time to go take a shower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Xiaoyun woke up just in time as he ate breakfast with everyone at the dining table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading Luoping Daily, the headline was the entire TV show in text format, with a schedule to replay it tonight as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do they really have to replay it?\" Xiaoyun murmured, his mind still felt a little embrassed by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Wen is going to juice every bit of views he can get. You know how a journalist is going to behave when you give them news for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leyan answered as she handed a small piece of sandwich over to Wuli, helping her eat while Bingbing rested on her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, almost forgot to tell you this, Leyan, the two of us are going to come home late, you don’t have to cook us dinner.\" Anna suddenly mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are you two going?\" Leyan curiously asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just needing to go visit the newly assembled factory in Qingyuan. We should be back around nine or ten.\" Kate answered this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay safe... Xiaoyun, you aren’t going to say something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay safe... Ouch, why was that for?\" Xiaoyun complained as Leyan stepped on his foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that all you got to say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What else am I supposed to say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never mind, this guy truly has a cardboard brain... You two make sure not to do anything dangerous, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them nodded as they headed out of the house, leaving the rest to eat dinner as they watched them close the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Leyan, what did you call brother Xiaoyun a cardboard brain?\" Lily curiously asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because this idiot doesn’t even give them a goodbye kiss or give them a hug before they leave the house.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leyan answered, looking over to Xiaoyun with disappointment as if she had had high hopes from him after yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, she’s going to come back tonight. It’s not like they are staying overnight... You’re making it like they are going on a long trip or something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leyan only shook her head as she made the next sandwich for Shuli to eat, helping Shuli eat while Wenwen sat in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sometimes I really wonder how I fell in love with you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi murmured as she still couldn’t believe how smooth-brained Xiaoyun was when it came to relationships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? I’m being serious. You guys don’t give me goodbye kisses when I go to work. You guys are overreacting over nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun took a sip of the coffee and turned the newspaper to the next page, his brain suddenly realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a moment. Lily, when did you start calling Leyan sister again? Didn’t you use to call Mom?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s none of your business. Stop being so noisy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leyan interrupted, not letting Lily answer as she handed her the second sandwich to keep her busy eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the kitchen fell into a minute of silent eating, Xiaoyun suddenly started taking a cold breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You okay?\" Tianci worringly asked, noticing his hand shaking a little as she sat right next to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-Yeah, I’m fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun closed the newspaper, his mind was zoning out a little as he couldn’t believe what he saw on the second page of the newspaper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a photo of a massive, naked zombie. A titan mutant, to be exact. The same one he had once witnessed back when he first visited Foshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had always wondered where the titan mutant disappeared into, since no trace of its existence had ever been found other than the destruction it left behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn’t witness it once before, he would have thought the photo was fake. But he could instantly recognize its look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same mutant. No other way around it, with the location of the picture being in Nanning, Guangxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shit. This is going to be annoying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s going to be annoying?\" Nami curiously asked, noticing the worried look on Xiaoyun’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing. Just some things I have to talk to Houqin later...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun flipped the newspaper back up to the third page, he was once again shocked as the photo ops made his eyes drop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lines upon lines of people, all migrating on foot. With the city’s direction being once again from Guangxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell is happening in Guangxi?\" Xiaoyun wondered, as the fog of war began to elude him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guangxi? Why are you talking about Guangxi for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi took a peek at the newspaper herself, she froze for a second before flipping over to the front to check the date.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuck! This can’t be serious. More people coming over towards our direction?\" Yuqi questioned in anger as she got up from her seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not that much... Who knows how many of them are going to be alive by the time they make it here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi fell into silence as she knew what Xiaoyun was trying to imply, but she still could feel the stress of the possibility of even more people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can send more agents to Guangxi... But it’s kind of hard since zombies block off all of the corridors to the province.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yueyue suggested as she began to realize she might have overlooked some key info on a province that bordered one of their cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine. We’ll do something about it when we get there... Spend your effort more on crime and corruption investigation——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No more talking about work.\" Leyan interrupted, ending their conversation as everyone went back to eating breakfast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xiaoyun came to the administrative building with Yuqi, they were instantly met with file after file of reports on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jianlin was already standing there, waiting for them to come into the room as she bowed down towards Yuqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deputy Governor, this is all the information we have gathered so far on the refugees coming from Guangxi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can go back to work. I’ll read these later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Jianlin left the room, Xiaoyun reached for the report, only to have Yuqi take it before he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go do something else. I’ll handle the refugees.\" Yuqi murmured as she began reading the report by herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her nodding her head, Xiaoyun didn’t think too much about it as he went over to the 2nd stack of reports to read over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a report on the railroad construction—more specifically, a progress report on the connection of Guangzhou to Luoping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two cities had completed their connection and had begun their first test run, with full operation estimated by the end of the month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed to be fine until he read to the second half of the report, where the word ’limited’ capability was stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, the electric grid’s limitation meant the metro itself could only operate during the peak hours of the morning and afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Near the end of the report, it also brought up the pause on the metro system across Foshan and Guangzhou due to the lack of electricity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn electricity... Hopefully, those generators start working soon.\" Xiaoyun murmured as he began reading the next report.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second report was once again transportation. But rather than the metro, this one was more specifically regarding trains and high-speed rails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything had been repaired and was fully functioning, with the only thing being in the way being the lack of budget actually to operate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was worse was the survey it had conducted, as all the effort Xiaoyun had spent repairing might have gone into a sunken hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of passengers who were willing to take either of them remained low, as the need for across-city transportation wasn’t that high a priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, it wasn’t a dead-end, as the survey over time had shown an increasing trend of more people wanting it to become open to the public.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Am I really going to operate this at a loss?\" Xiaoyun murmured to himself as a decision became apparent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Operate what at a loss?\" Yuqi curiously asked as she turned over to Xiaoyun for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The trains and the high-speed rail... The trains are going to be used for transporting goods, no matter what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for the high-speed rails... Not a lot of people need it to travel across the city far enough to justify the cost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then just put it on pause for now until there’s enough interest to restart it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun took out a piece of paper to begin drafting a letter to put the operation on pause for now, he quickly noticed a small note at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Repairing railway to other unexplored cities for the army... Who came up with that idea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1526,"2026-06-10T06:59:53.682Z",1,"novelbin.me","3a855c77195372106e2693924fa8ac81ee15eeba14a6edc1a37c326abfb919fe","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-627","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-821",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
