Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 829 - Eight Hundred and Twenty-Nine: The Truth Behind the Guesses

Chapter 829: Chapter Eight Hundred and Twenty-Nine: The Truth Behind the Guesses

Last afternoon, Lu Hao went to find Liang Jiuhui, and didn’t return until near evening.

"How did it go?"

As soon as Lu Hao entered, Su Jin came over to ask. The family members who had gone out with the training squad to kill zombies had also returned, but they all went upstairs to take a bath.

"Wang Liang’s guess should be true,"

Lu Hao frowned as he replied. Before, many Special Ability User teams that went out had reported this issue to the mission center—that the zombies gathering were being attracted by something, meaning that there indeed was such a zombie in their S city now.

"So what exactly is Han Yue trying to do? Wasn’t he here for the second bounty team evaluation?"

Su Jin asked, puzzled.

"No matter the reason, he won’t be able to go back this time,"

Lu Hao sneered. If it weren’t for Wang Liang sending the message in time, their entire S city base might have been played by Han Yue like a pawn.

"What! You guys are going to deal with Han Yue? Take me with you!!"

A figure ran over from beside the dining table, and only then did Lu Hao realize that Kou Ning was still here.

"They decided to keep him here for dinner when they returned,"

Su Jin explained.

Lu Hao nodded and, looking at Kou Ning, said, "I’ve taken on the task from Liang Jiuhui, do you want to come too?"

"If it’s about screwing over Han Yue, I absolutely must be included, haha, give him what he deserves,"

Kou Ning spoke righteously, seeming even more eager to oppose Han Yue than the members of the Heart Talk Team.

"Alright, don’t go out anymore these evenings, come with me to the North Suburbs early tomorrow morning,"

Lu Hao said after thinking it over.

He had taken the task, but Wang Liang mentioned that the zombie would attract countless others in the vicinity, making it a difficult mission. Apart from the Heart Talk Team, Liang Jiuhui had also arranged for some other people. If Kou Ning were added to the mix, their chances of success would likely increase.

"Ah, I really want to go too,"

Su Jin looked down at her belly.

Well, she couldn’t even see her feet anymore.

"I suggest bringing Su Jin,"

Kou Ning suddenly said.

"How could that be possible, Xiao Jin going out is far too dangerous now,"

The voice of Su Xiangzhe came from upstairs, and upon hearing this, he immediately objected after having taken a shower.

"Leaving Su Jin alone at the base will be more dangerous,"

Kou Ning said as he picked up a fried ’cat ear’ from the fruit plate on the table.

"Why?"

Lu Hao asked seriously, how could the base be dangerous.

"You guys don’t really think that Han Yue would be that simplistic, do you? In my view, his ultimate target this time is you guys,"

A fried ’cat ear’ pointed towards a few people in front of Kou Ning, finally settling in Su Jin’s direction.

"Us...?"

Su Jin pointed to herself and asked.

"I know, but he must be rather too confident,"

Lu Hao said, Kou Ning’s words had also helped him understand a lot about the recent events. If Kou Ning’s speculation was true, then Han Yue truly did deserve to die without a place for his corpse.

"How so? Why are we his ultimate target? And why not act now?"

Su Xiangzhe was still somewhat puzzled.

"Because he bet the entire S City base on it,"

Lu Hao replied.

Kou Ning smiled and nodded, finding it simple to communicate with intelligent people.

With the zombie tide approaching, every person in the S City base would certainly go all out to deal with it, including the Heart Talk Team of course. The protection around the about-to-give-birth Su Jin would then be incredibly weak. At that time, if Han Yue and his experts managed to kidnap Su Jin while she was vulnerable, it would mean controlling the entire Heart Talk Team.

"So the grading of the bounty hunter teams was just an excuse after all, no wonder he said he could wait,"

Considering the series of recent events, they felt more and more that their speculation was correct.

"Damn it, we shouldn’t have sent him back to the B City base at that time; we should have finished him off right there!"

Su Xiangzhe cursed angrily, incredulous that someone would consider doing such a thing at the time his daughter was giving birth. To think they had saved him once!

"Right! We should have finished him off!"

Kou Ning echoed from the side.

Observing this scene, Su Jin found it somewhat amusing. Her previous concerns dissipated, as she didn’t worry about herself but only about her two children. Regardless of whether their guesses were correct, it was indeed necessary to take precautions in these aspects.

"Tomorrow, Xiao Jin will come with us,"

Lu Hao finally decided. The safest place was by his side and the side of everyone else.

"Okay,"

Su Jin’s voice was filled with joy. She hadn’t been out on a long trip for quite a while and hadn’t fed Xiao Cui in a long time. She only let Xiao Cui out in the space to get some air. If there was a chance during this outing, she would definitely feed Xiao Cui well.

At night.

The members of the Heart Talk Team were furious when they learned of this matter.

"Today, when we heard the zombies gathering, we suspected it might be Han Yue. We never thought it would actually be his doing,"

Huang Yunxiang said angrily.

"Brother-in-law, why don’t we finish him off tonight?"

Lin Xiuyuan asked, wondering why wait for him to return to the Han family. Better dead and done with it.

"What we need is a reason that justifies wiping out the entire Han family’s influence, along with evidence. Relax, he won’t be able to leave the base,"

Lu Hao explained their plan, which he had discussed with Liang Jiuhui that day. Now, Liang Jiuhui had already sent people to the B City base, planning to join forces with the Wei Family there to deal a crippling blow to the Han family that they would never recover from.

"Tsk tsk, I’m glad I didn’t make enemies with your Heart Talk Team,"

Kou Ning commented on the side, his heart feeling a mix of schadenfreude and anticipation. If he could make a grand entrance in front of the Han family members at the end...

"Kou Ning, you should get some rest. We’re leaving early tomorrow,"

Su Jin kindly reminded him, noticing that Kou Ning seemed to have drifted into a fantasy.

"Alright, alright, I didn’t get enough sleep during the day anyway, good night everyone~"

Only then did Kou Ning reluctantly prepare to head back to his own nest.

He was, of course, also looking forward to the next day.

"Captain Lu, are you really going to take Su Jin with you? How about I take a day off and stay at the base to protect Su Jin?"

Liao Yifan said worriedly.

"The training team has a heavy workload these days, and having Xiao Jin with us all won’t be an issue,"

Lin Tianhui stated. She would also go as a healer with everyone the next day. In addition to her, other healers from the base would accompany them, as Lu Hao was concerned they might not be able to return to the base within a day.

Liao Yifan nodded in agreement but still gave a few worried instructions before he and Guo Yang held hands and walked back to the secondary residence.

In the administration building, Liang Jiuhui also placed great importance on the next day’s operation.

Although everyone’s purpose was to deal with that mental element mutated zombie, this task was also crucial for the base’s security. Therefore, he dispatched over a hundred guard squad members to follow, which included space element ability users and healers for logistics, as Lu Hao was worried that they might not be able to return to the base within a day.
