Chapter 309: Entering the Base

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After confirming that Yuan Tianxing and the others had returned, Lin Qiao nodded and said, “Great! I’ll bring you into the space. Come on!”

She held Qiu Lili’s hands and entered the space with her, then turned invisible and came back out. After that, she sneakily approached Mengmeng, grabbed her suddenly, and dragged her into the space as well.

After bringing Mengmeng and Qiu Lili into her space, she flashed out again and turned invisible before heading toward the base. Soon, she sneaked into the base through the small door at an entrance without letting anyone know.

The entrances of the space weren’t always closed. During the daytime, a small door would stay open at each entrance. Those doors would only close at nighttime.

Every entrance was actually guarded by a large number of soldiers, including at least three level-five superpowered people.

There were four entrances in total, located in the East, South, West and North.

Upon each entrance was a tall sentry post. The ones guarding in the sentry posts were all level-four green-powered people, because green-powered people had keen sensations, which allowed them to discover anything unusual around the base timely.

No zombie was able to hide from the eyes of level-four green-powered people, unless it was at level-five or above.

Level-five and six zombies were all smart enough to not show around human bases randomly. After all, there were plenty of superpowered people in each base, even level-seven ones.

So, even though a small door was open at each entrance, high-level zombies didn’t dare to approach the base, as those doors were guarded by so many superpowered people. Back when the base was newly built, and the surrounding ordinary zombies were swept off, quite some high-leveled zombies risked for the living human beings in the base. As a result, they were all killed, with their zombie nuclei dug out.

Later on, high-leveled zombies had all learned not to get close to any human base.

After entering the base, Lin Qiao followed the scents of Lin Feng and the others to find them.

As she arrived, she found that Lin Feng and his people were staying in a building in Region D. The building was surrounded by a large group of soldiers. However, why would so many soldiers guard under a building in a civilian area?

She walked through the crowd of soldiers, then went upstairs. As she arrived at Lin Feng’s floor, she found that those soldiers were all here for Lin Feng and his people.

There were a few suites on this floor. Lin Feng and his people stayed in two suites.

A few armed soldiers were guarding before the doors of these two suites, carrying their guns.

What was happening?

Lin Qiao didn’t understand the situation. Where did these soldiers come from? What were they guarding here?

The doors were closed, so Lin Qiao walked to one door and put her ear against the wall to listen to the sounds in the suite.

“Xiaolu… Go and get a glass of water,” Cheng Wangxue’s voice was heard.

“Alright,” Lin Xiaolu responded.

“The meal is almost ready. I’ve finished the pancakes. Lin Hao, take these to next door,” Mrs. Lin’s voice was heard as well.

“Are those soldiers still guarding outside?” said Lin Hao.

“I think so. Why does that man think that we stole his daughter? I think he’s looking for Miss. Lu,” said Lin Wenwen.

“Who knows! Miss. Lu hasn’t come back yet. No one knows if she stole that little girl,” said Mrs. Lin.

“This is his base, and he’s the boss of this place. He surely can make any decision… But, who’s this ‘Lin’ that he mentioned?” said Lin Hao.

“According to Chief Wu’s description, that is Miss. Lu. She has a space, and can turn invisible. But, hadn’t she left for an emergency?” Lin Feng’s voice also came from behind the door.

“Yuan Tianxing and the others have come back, but where are Miss. Lu and her friends?”

On hearing that, Lin Qiao learned that all these soldiers were here under Wu Chengyue’s order.

She turned and put her ear to the door of another suite, then heard the voices of Yuan Tianxing, Du Yuanxing, Lu Junjie, and some other people.

At that moment, the door of Lin Family’s suite was opened, and Lin Qiao immediately stepped aside.

Lin Hao opened the door. The soldiers guarding outside only glanced at him, without making any moves. Lin Hao glanced at them as well, then walked to another suite and knocked on the door.

The door was soon opened; it was Lin Yu who opened the door and saw Lin Hao.

“Wow, food!” The next second, Lin Yu’s eyes were fixed on the plate in Lin Hao’s hands.

Lin Hao handed him the plate and said, “Take it, my Mom made these.”

Lin Yu happily took it over and said, “Thank Mrs. Lin for us! She’s always been a great cook! This smells wonderful!”

Lin Hao waved a hand at him, then turned and left while Lin Yu carried the plate with one hand and closed the door with another.

Lin Qiao glanced at Lin Hao, who had walked back into the Lin Family’s suite, then at Lin Yu’s door.

She didn’t understand why Wu Chengyue had sent his people to guard in here. Those soldiers didn’t seem to restrict the freedom of Lin Feng and his people.

This place was way better than the accommodation of the ordinary people. The suites here weren’t as good as the apartments, but were comfortable enough. The buildings in this area all had elevators, but due to the lack of electricity, they weren’t really working, and the people who lived here had to take the stairs.

Lin Qiao pondered for a while, then figured that Wu Chengyue had probably checked the entry list that day and saw the names of Lin Feng and the others. That should be why he suspected them.

Wu Chengyue had guessed it right though. Lin Qiao just didn’t expect that it would take over three days for Viney and her to help Wu Yueling with the awakening of her power.

As it had been three says, she guessed that Wu Chengyue was already driven crazy.

At this moment, she suddenly sensed that someone was coming upstairs. She recognized that person by his scent as Wu Chengyue’s right-hand man.

Soon, she saw Xiao Yunlong come up with a few subordinates, going toward the Lin Family’s suite.

“Deputy Chief!” As Xiao Yunlong walked over, the few soldiers by the door immediately stood at attention and greeted him. Xiao Yunlong nodded at them, then walked up to the door and knocked on it.

Lin Hao quickly opened the door. He was holding a piece of pancake, and the other half of it was in his mouth.

Upon seeing Xiao Yunlong, he paused slightly.

“Hi! Our Chief wants to invite Mr. Lin to his place. I wonder if that’s convenient for him,” Xiao Yunlong stood at the door and lowered his head to look at Lin Hao while saying with a smile.

Hearing his words, Lin Hao turned back to shout at the living room, “Brother, Chief Wu wants to see you in his place.”

The people in the suite who were preparing to eat all paused and turned to look at the door.

Lin Feng stood up from the couch and said to Mrs. Lin and the others, “Mom, you guys eat first. I’ll go to Chief Wu’s place.”

While speaking, he walked toward the door.

“Please wait for a second,” As Lin Feng walked out, Xiao Yunlong said to him. Then, he turned to knock Yuan Tianxing’s door.

Lin Feng silently watched the door open. Then, Yuan Tianxing was invited as well. After that, both of them were guided downstairs.
