Chapter 73 Boss, it seems someone is coming.
"Go straight in?"
Chen Bingjiang's voice in the walkie-talkie was equally excited.
He saw it clearly from upstairs; that kid left in this very car.
Now that the car is found, do we even need to mention the person?
He's definitely in the villa area!
Hearing his voice, Zheng Youcai immediately felt some disdain; this fat idiot really doesn't have a brain.
He dares to go in without knowing what's inside?
It's like looking for a light switch in the toilet.
It's courting death.
"Don't rush."
"Let's take a look first."
After Zheng Youcai finished speaking, he turned to look at his subordinate beside him.
This man was named Xu Wei, the smartest and bravest person he brought today.
Seeing his boss's expression, Xu Wei knew that the reconnaissance task was likely falling onto his shoulders again, and he calmly made a hand gesture.
Three bottles of purified water and an additional can of food.
That was his due.
Seeing Zheng Youcai nod, Xu Wei immediately gestured to another person in the car to get out, and the two cautiously approached the villa area across from the intersection.
They were experienced.
Besides the tall and thin man, these two were the only ones who had returned alive from the outside before.
But their findings were almost nil.
The area centered around the shopping mall had long been overrun.
Zombies roamed everywhere, preventing the two men from daring to scout any further afield.
But today was different, as the target for reconnaissance was fixed.
It was just a few hundred meters away.
After crossing the intersection, the two began to crouch down.
The number of zombies around had noticeably decreased, and from time to time, they could see bodies lying by the side of the road, with almost all the wounds located on the head.
Clearly, they had been regularly cleared by the survivors in the villa area.
Outside the gate stood two men.
They wore blue security uniforms.
On them, one could faintly see dried bloodstains, which appeared a deep, dark red in the shadows.
"Damn it!"
"There are still guards?"
The man who had come with Xu Wei, Liao Wenlei, exclaimed as soon as he saw them.
"Are you asking to be killed?"
"Keep it down!"
Xu Wei quickly reminded him.
Yet, the surprise in his eyes was no less than that of the other.
The two of them watched the guards standing in front of the community gate like statues, standing tall and proud, and couldn't help but feel a bit of awe.
Do the people in this neighborhood not fear death?
They've even started standing guard outside?
"Isn't it just?"
"Can we talk about our good luck?"
"Following the boss, we've got food and drink, plus zombies to help us keep a lookout and build walls."
"Life's pretty damn comfortable!"
Everyone laughed heartily but quickly climbed into their respective vehicles.
After a full meal, it was natural to get ready for work.
But Wang Hu stood still.
"What's up, Brother Hu?"
Du Chao, curious, approached and asked.
Wang Hu didn't respond but kept his gaze fixed on the direction of the entrance to the housing complex where there seemed to be more vehicles parked than he remembered.
Hearing someone speak beside him, he finally snapped back into the moment.
"Were there that many cars there before?"
He nodded his chin in the direction of the entrance.
Du Chao was startled and quickly turned his head to look in the direction Wang Hu indicated.
Abandoned cars were visible everywhere near the entrance. Explore more stories at empire
Who knows if there were more!
He thought Wang Hu was being overly sensitive, but after thinking it over, he still suggested quietly, "Should we go back and report this to Director Zhang?"
Wang Hu thought for a moment, then shook his head.
He glanced around him.
"Let's go."
"We'll talk in the truck."
The two men's truck had been brought from the construction site, and it was also a heavy-duty truck.
The radio on the truck had been properly tuned.
After getting in, he started the engine and picked up the walkie-talkie in front of him.
The radio quickly connected.
"Chrrrchch—"
"This is the company's intelligence department. Is there anything you need to report?"
The voice was that of a woman named Tian Miao, the sister of the intelligence department manager Tian Gou.
The siblings were now both employees of Zhang Ye.
"Is the boss there?"
"I'm Wang Hu, at the entrance of the residential area."
After the woman said "wait a moment" and vanished, there were soft footsteps.
Soon, there were other footsteps, steady and powerful.
Zhang Ye's voice came through from the other side.
He sounded curious.
"Hello, Wang Hu?"
"Didn't you just leave the residential complex?"
"Calling specially, has something happened outside?"
Wang Hu, hearing this, raised his head once more to look at the opposite side of the intersection where those cars were still parked.
"Boss, it looks like we've got visitors."
