Zombie Apocalypse: Creation
Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Decisions, Decisions
"I guess..." Shuli still disagree with the two, but she couldn''t do anything about it.
With the heavy atmosphere between the three, Nami decided to lighten up the mood a little.
"Hey babe, what are you doing for mom''s birthday present?" Nami curiously asked.
"Um, I was thinking of making her a nice dinner." Xiaoyun awkwardly scratched his head.
"Babe... You can''t be serious. Is that all you are doing for mom?" Yuqi looked a little surprised by Xiaoyun''s suggestion.
"I was also planning to give her a secret gift. I just can''t reveal it to you guys yet." Xiaoyun immediately made one up on the spot.
"You better, mom has sacrificed so much for you." Nami seem of saw through Xiaoyun''s lies but didn''t want to pop the bubble.
"Of course, all of you guys will be shock when you guys get to see it... Oh snap, I need to go back to the training field now." Xiaoyun ran out of the office with his backpack in hand.

When Xiaoyun was out of the building and walking in the street, he started thinking what to get for Leyan.
"Hm, what present can I give her? I only have two week before it''s her birthday... And I still have to sort out the scientist and militias... Such a headache." Xiaoyun started walking in the commercial district looking for something he can buy.
After walking stores to stores, he couldn''t find anything that could fit the criteria.
Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder. Xiaoyun turned around and sees Yiming was behind him.
"Hey Xiaoyun, what are you doing here?"
"Oh I''m just looking for a gift for Leyan, but none of them fits." Xiaoyun explained.
"A gift? What are you looking for?" Yiming asked.
"I don''t know to be honest... I just need something that can surprise her."
"What does she like then?" Yiming asked.
"Leyan doesn''t seem like luxury or expensive gifts... She usually dislike accepting gift." Xiaoyun replied.
"Perhaps you should handmade something for her." Yiming suggested.
Xiaoyun thought for a second, and nodded in agreement to Yiming''s suggestion.
"Anyway, what are you doing here?" Xiaoyun asked as he had never seen Yiming outside of the training field or his house.
"Just enjoying a break that you gave me just like all the other soldiers... You know, I have to give some kudos to you for this town. I can never imagine this big of a town during a apocalypse like this."
"Thanks for the compliment, but that probably should be directed toward Yuqi, she''s the one that mostly planned this." Xiaoyun clarified.
"Well without you, she would of never have the platform to show her ability like this. Anyway, I''m going back home now. See you next week." Yiming waved goodbye.
"See ya." Xiaoyun waved back as the two went separate way.

When Xiaoyun arrived back home, it was already five in the afternoon.
"Mostly sorting the scientist''s data and categorizing them to each one of them. You wouldn''t believe how disturbing it was to read them...
It make me feel disgusted just from thinking about it." Yueyue replied as she sat down on the sofa.
"I still can''t believe every single one of them managed to have blood on their hand and feel not guilty. It just insane." Yueyue mentioned it again.
"Oh sorry, I shouldn''t mention this at home." Yueyue realized what she just said.
"It''s fine... Lily, how''s school today?" Leyan looked over to Lily who was behind the two.
"Nothing much, just learning about algebra and chemistry." Lily laid down on the sofa.
"Anything problem with the work or classes? I can help tutor you." Leyan offered.
"I''m good. I already did the homework in class." Lily refused the offer as she still laying down on the sofa like a dead fish.
"Wuli, where did you go shopping?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he didn''t see her at all when he went to go shopping.
"Just went to go buy some cloths at the new district for me and Shuli since she''s complaining about her cloths shrinking." Wuli replied back.
"Oh snap I need to go cook dinner." Leyan got up and left the living room.
---
When Leyan finished cooking dinner, the other three just came back home in time.
"We''re finally back home." Nami announced as they walked to the living room.
"What took you guys so long?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as the clock was already seven.
"We had some data missing and had to reconfirm it." Shuli replied as if she had no energy.
"Is dinner ready? I''m so hungry." Yuqi asked as she rubbed her empty belly.
"Leyan just finished cooking and the other three is already sitting down." Xiaoyun lead the three to the kitchen.
"Welcome back." Wuli said out loud to the three as they sat down in their seats.
"Yeah." All three of them replied back with no energy.
"Why are you three so tired?" Leyan curiously asked as she put down the bowl of rice for the three.
"Just a lot of work today... Oh yeah I almost forgot, Xiaoyun I found few law experts that can help you regarding the law codes and dealing with those sentences for the prisoners." Yuqi replied back as everyone started eating.
"Oh really? " Xiaoyun looked a little surprise by the news.
"Yeah really. They even had their former judge document and everything. So they are legit." Yuqi paused for a second to finish chewing her food.
"But when I ask them what would the insurgent and scientist be sentence under the country''s law, they told me it''s death sentence."
The table fell into silent as everyone looked surprised at Yuqi except Yueyue.
"All of them? Are you sure?" Xiaoyun asked again to make sure.
"Yes really. Yueyue you tell me, what is the law behind taking another person''s life? And for treason?" Yuqi asked.
