Chapter 628: Yang Ziyi
“Let’s go back first—we’ll talk after we return!”
The man Chen Chaofa called “brother” reached out and grabbed him, intending to drag him out of the monitoring room. But Chen Chaofa was stubborn, struggling in his brother’s grasp, refusing to leave.
Chen Chaofa’s brother slapped him and roared, “Stop acting up! Those two are not ordinary soldiers. Do you see how many of our men they’ve already taken down? Your dad sent you out here to relax. Now move!”
It wasn’t that Chen Chaofa’s brother didn’t want to help him—it was that he was already old, no longer able to fool around like in the past. Even though the apocalypse had come and he had awakened an ability, what good would that do? In real combat—life and death battles—raw strength wasn’t what mattered.
Zhan Lian and Luo Feifan’s skills were clearly far from ordinary. Chen Chaofa had already lost countless men to them, yet he still wanted to send the ordinary subordinates of the group leaders to their deaths.
He was truly insane.
“I want them dead! I want them dead!”
Chen Chaofa twisted violently and suddenly broke free from his brother’s grip. Like a monkey, he darted out of the monitoring room. Before his brother could catch him, he grabbed a chair and smashed it into the electrical panel outside the room.
Bang!
The monitoring room was instantly plunged into darkness.
Chen Chaofa’s brother’s face turned black. The two soldiers who had been guarding Chen Chaofa were also stunned. One of them asked cautiously, “Director Yang, are we going after him?”
“Avoid those two strong fighters and retrieve Xiao Fa in secret.” Chen Chaofa’s brother—Director Yang—thought for a moment and gave careful instructions. “Don’t alert anyone. Go quickly and return quickly. Once you find him, leave immediately.”
Director Yang was just a title. His real name was Yang Ziyi.
Yang Ziyi looked helpless. He turned to glance at Wu Simiao, who was crouched behind a chair, sighed, and walked over.
Wu Simiao frantically waved his hands and cried out, “It’s none of my business! I don’t know anything! I didn’t see anything!”
Oh my god—Chen Chaofa was truly a lunatic. Usually he disguised himself well, but just a few lines with Yang Ziyi made his insanity clear. “Relaxation”? What a joke!
Not only was Chen Chaofa insane, even Director Yang—who came to pick him up—was terrifying.
Yang Ziyi, in his fifties, had a face full of hostility, lips pulled down in a grim line. He looked like someone ready to kill to silence witnesses.
Yang Ziyi pulled over a chair, sat down, pulled a pack of cigarettes from his tactical vest, handed one to Wu Simiao, then took one for himself and bit down on it.
He asked lightly: “Do you know why Xiao Fa came to your base?”
“B-Because… our base has a lot of supplies…” Wu Simiao was practically in tears as he answered, still huddled under the chair. His voice was barely audible, and he didn’t dare look Yang Ziyi in the eye.
Yang Ziyi was clearly a powerful figure—his status before the apocalypse must have been extremely high.
Of course, Chen Chaofa’s status was also high. Wu Simiao had long known that Chen Chaofa came from the military.
When Chen Chaofa first arrived, the merger of Yaoyang Base and Kinmen Base had already been nearly finalized. But then Wu Simiao’s father passed away, and Yaoyang Base was inherited by Wu Simiao. Progress slowed because Wu Simiao didn’t care about it at all.
