CHAPTER 386: VISITING THE MARKET ( 1 )

When the Phantom Team arrived at Lin’an City Base, they were stunned by what they saw. When they left, the fourth wall had just started building the foundation, but now the wall was already taking shape.

Looking out the window, Yin Yusheng clicked his tongue and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Captain Xun really knows how to manage the base. In just eighteen days, he managed to build half of the wall."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan replied, "He is now the base Commander. We shouldn’t call him Captain anymore. Also, I heard that he made a deal with the Yunshan City Base’s Commander."

"They sent a group of engineers, workers, and ability-users to help. With the addition of the survivors from the Capital, it would be strange if the wall progressed slowly," he added.

When they heard this, Li Sikai asked, "Vice Captain, does Yunshan City also have a base?"

Zhang Yuan nodded and replied, "From the information I got from Xun Che, the Base Commander is also someone we know."

Rubbing his chin, Xiao Qi said, "I wonder who it is. To be able to send so many people over, this person must have the trust of Yunshan City’s people."

Glancing at him, Zhang Yuan said, "That person is Feng Xiu."

As soon as he said the name, everyone was stunned. They never expected that the one leading Yunshan City Base would be the Red Falcon Team’s Captain.

Unlike other special forces teams, the Red Falcon Team was mostly made up of women and they took intelligence missions as spies to gather important information about enemies or assassination missions.

Their physical strength might have been weaker compared to other teams, but their cunning was undoubtedly among the best.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Qi said, "It’s better for us to avoid Yunshan City Base."

Even though no one said a word, everyone nodded in agreement as they thought about the bad blood between their Captain and the Red Falcon Team’s Captain.

When they reached the entrance of the third wall, they saw a long line of people waiting for their turn to undergo inspection and register their information.

After parking their cars, the members came out one after another. The moment the guards saw them, one of them walked over and gave them a salute while saying, "Comrades, welcome back!"

The members returned his salute, and Zhang Yuan asked, "Comrade, we have been gone for almost three weeks. How is the situation at the base now?"

The soldier smiled and replied, "Thanks to the survivors from the Capital, we managed to speed up the base-building project. Now, there is an official market in the third-ring area. We can sell or trade our items there."

Hearing this, Xiao Qi was interested and asked, "Comrade, is there good stuff there?"

"It actually depends on luck. Sometimes the items sold there are just trinkets to coax your partner. But yesterday, we heard that someone actually bought a good weapon there," the soldier replied after thinking for a moment.

When the Wen Brothers heard this, their eyes lit up instantly. Talking about weapons, weren’t they the best weapon craftsmen in the current situation?

After some brief conversations, the members finished their inspection and entered the base. While they were away, they wondered how the children and the members who had stayed at the base were doing.

They drove to their team’s residence and noticed how lively the base was now.

Thirty minutes later, they finally arrived at their residence and parked their cars. The moment they entered the house, they heard Rong Mo’er’s angry voice: "Cousin, how could you lie to me like this?"

Sitting on the couch, Rong Qinyu looked at his cousin calmly and replied, "Mo’er, I never lied to you. What happened to our family was a fact, and I never told you that I have nothing to do with Yunshan City Base."

Hearing this, Rong Mo’er clenched her fists and asked, "So, you think that not telling me is equal to not lying? Cousin, you are using me to reach your goal. Shouldn’t you at least give me an explanation?"

After a moment of silence, Rong Qinyu finally said, "Mo’er, it’s my fault for keeping this matter from you. But I never used you to reach my goals. In this matter, I have a clear conscience."

When Gu Shaozhe saw that his girlfriend wanted to say more, he pulled her hands and gestured for her to calm down. While handing a glass of water to her, he said, "Cousin, does that mean that you will be leaving soon?"

Rong Qinyu nodded and replied, "The Yunshan City Base is in urgent need of supplies. I have to go back as soon as possible. What’s more, my girlfriend is waiting for me to return."

As soon as he said this, Rong Mo’er asked, "Cousin, when did you find a girlfriend?"

Seeing that his cousin was no longer as angry as before, Rong Qinyu smiled and replied, "It has been three years now. When you visit Yunshan City Base, I will introduce you to her."

Rong Mo’er stared at her cousin for a moment before she said, "Okay."

With this agreement, their argument came to an end, and it could be said that they had reconciled.

Since the siblings were no longer arguing, the members finally entered the house and pretended as if they had heard nothing.

Seeing them, Gu Shaoze smiled and said, "Everyone, you are back."

Zhang Yuan nodded, took a seat across from him, and asked, "Brother Shaoze, did anything happen while we were not around?"

Gu Shaoze shook his head and replied, "The children are still attending the military training. As for Sister Jiang, she is helping out in the clinic."

After he said this, Rong Mo’er added, "Vice Captain, on the day you left, my cousin and I joined the base’s mission team and went to clear out the zombies. But that day, we met a strange zombie."
