As for the reason why these few high-positioned people lived in this small building, it was because the little one didn’t like high or large places.

Wu Chengyue moved in this place which was fancied by his daughter, so the other two followed.

The building of three stories was small. The first floor was the living room and kitchen, the second floor had a study room and two bedrooms, and the third floor had two bedrooms and a balcony.

Wu Chengyue and the little one each occupied a bedroom on the second floor. He wanted very much to share a room with his daughter, but the little one didn’t like that. Therefore, the father had been banished to the next door. However, he still needed to check on his daughter five or six times a night.

Meng Yue and Xiao Yunlong lived on the third floor.

Except for themselves and a group of guards, no one would step in this building; no nannies or servants.

That was because the little one didn’t like strange people. She wouldn’t even let Xiao Licheng, who often followed Wu Chengyue around as his driver and assistant, get near her.

Walking into the living room, Wu Chengyue put the little one on a couch and told her to play by herself.?Xiao Yunlong followed behind him, saying, “We’re still trying to verify the message. But, based on experience, I think it’s real. However, no one knows for sure if Netherworld Fire is really dead or not. People are all making guesses now.”

Wu Chengyue sat on the couch and poured himself a glass of water while saying, “I suppose those people haven’t gotten the message yet. You should send people to tell them about what has happened in the Hades Base first. Don’t mention about their Chief yet, as we don’t know for sure at the moment. That still needs to be verified. Let’s see what they plan to do next.”

Xiao Yunlong stood beside him as he nodded and said, “The news about the base has been confirmed. As for their Chief’s families, do we need to send some people to aid them? If they’re on the run, I think they should be arriving at the edge of Zhe Province by now.”

Wu Chengyue glanced at him and responded, “You should ask Li Zheng and his people if they plan to go and get their Chief’s family themselves. I think it’ll be easier for them than for us. We’ll simply send a squad to help them.”

Xiao Yunlong nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Meng Yue sat down beside Wu Chengyue, holding a stack of files. While reading the files, she was also listening to the conversation between the two.

“Tomorrow, send your people to tell them about the news, and see what they plan to do. And, have you found any trace of that zombie?” After giving his daughter a cup of water, Wu Chengyue stood up and walked toward the kitchen.

Xiao Yunlong glanced at the little one and Meng Yue who had been reading files, then followed Wu Chengyue to the kitchen.

“No. Are you sure that it’s heading South?” As Wu Chengyue walked into the kitchen while rolling up his sleeves, then took some vegetables out of the refrigerator and prepared to make dinner. Xiao Yunlong leaned against the door frame, crossed his arms, and asked.

After the apocalypse, people mainly used solar power. Some had generators, but as generators needed to be powered by gas, and gas was rather precious in the post-apocalyptic era, people rarely put them to use.

Wu Chengyue’s place was powered constantly, but most of the others could only use electricity within a fixed time slot, because the energy needed to be saved.

After five years of construction, the life in the base had become much better. The base center was now able to maintain a sufficient water and power supply. In order to resolve the zombie virus infection, every base had built a science lab and gathered some surviving medical scientists to run all sorts of experiment.

During the past five years, a large number of zombies were caught for experiments, and some human beings had been sacrificed. But still, no solution was found.

However, the experiments continued.

Wu Chengyue heated the oil in a wok while washing the vegetables. Then, he expertly cut all the washed vegetables and began to stir-fry them.

Meanwhile, he said, “I feel that it’s heading South. It has been moving South the whole time, and it picked the shortest path. It would only take a detour when it had to.”

Xiao Yunlong nodded, then said with confusion, “But, my people haven’t found anything. I guess it’s too hard to locate.”

Wu Chengyue smiled and responded, “Of course, it has a space. If anything is wrong, it’ll immediately hide in its space. Can you possibly find it?”

Xiao Yunlong sighed and said, “You have made it sounds magical. I’d really like to meet it myself.”

Thinking of that strange zombie, Wu Chengyue maintained the smile on his face, but also showed an interested look. Apparently, he was interested in that zombie. He wanted to see it again and know more about it.

In fact, what made him more curious was how the zombie communicated with his daughter.

“Ah, I’ve heard that Yang Jianhua, one of the Deputy Chiefs of the Hades Base, was hunting Netherworld Fire’s family. I wonder if he’ll succeed. I heard that he has been after Netherworld Fire’s younger sister. I don’t think he’ll let her go this time,” said Xiao Yunlong abruptly.

While making the dinner, Wu Chengyue replied, “Do you know that Yang Jianhua found a way to get close Netherworld Fire only because he wanted her sister? People said that he had saved Netherworld Fire’s life, but that’s not real.”

Hearing that, Xiao Yunlong paused slightly, then raised his brows and asked with surprise, “Hmm…? Do you mean that years ago, he didn’t really save Netherworld Fire?”

“I only heard about some of it,” said Wu Chengyue. “I heard from Earth Dragon Base people that Yang Jianhua has actually been one of Long Yubai’s bedmates since before the apocalypse. After the old world ended, he followed Netherworld Fire, but still kept in touch with Long Yubai, albeit very secretly. So, what do you think? I heard that it was Long Yubai’s people who made Netherworld Fire get trapped in a zombie city, and created a chance for Yang Jianhua to save her.”

Xiao Yunlong widened his eyes when he heard all that and said in astonishment, “Damn! Are you saying that they had started entrapping Netherworld Fire years ago?”

Wu Yuecheng nodded and replied in agreement, “Exactly! I wonder if she had figured it out before she died. I guess she’d be so mad if she knew.”

“True that,” sighed Xiao Yunlong, “Eh, you said that Yang Jianhua wants Netherworld Fire’s younger sister, but you also said that he’s Long Yubai’s bedmate… How? Doesn’t he like men?”

“Who said that he only likes men?” Wu Chengyue chuckled. “He’s a bisexual.”

Picturing Yang Jianhua and Long Yubai rolling in a bed together, Xiao Yunlong shivered.?“Eh, he likes both men and women? Can’t imagine!”
