Chapter 108 - 88: The Murderer (Please Support with Monthly Votes)_2



Two cars drove under the canopy, and Wang Tao called out to Ding Yuqin to get out of the car.

Ding Yuqin hurried over and stood closely by Wang Tao’s side, curiously taking in her surroundings.

“Commissioner Wang, good to see you!”

A few soldiers saluted Wang Tao, which surprised Ding Yuqin. She was still unaware of Wang Tao’s status at the base.

Little did she know the soldiers were just as surprised; they thought Commissioner Wang was impressive, managing to bring back such a beautiful woman after just one trip!

“Hmm.”

Wang Tao nodded, then took out a pack of cigarettes and offered them to the men.

Although he was now a member of the base’s committee, Wang Tao was still quite approachable. After all, these soldiers were the backbone of the base, and it was necessary to show them respect.

“Thanks, Commissioner Wang!”

The soldiers accepted the cigarettes, but their expressions were not very joyful.

“Has something happened at the base?”

Wang Tao asked, puzzled.

“The committee just announced that Commissioner Song Jinghong has encountered an unforeseen event…”

One of the soldiers began to explain.

“Hmm?”

Wang Tao was taken aback. Previously, everyone had suspected that something had happened to Song Jinghong, but there had been no proof. And it was also possible that he was just hiding somewhere, not necessarily in trouble. But now that it was announced, it meant that evidence of Song Jinghong’s death had been found.

The death of a committee member, especially one so well-regarded, saddened everyone for Song Jinghong’s passing.

“Commissioner Wang, we’ve finished checking everything. There are no zombies hidden in or around your vehicle! Neither you nor your companion have any issues with your eyes.”

The inspecting soldier hastened to report.

“Hmm.”

Wang Tao nodded, then gestured for Ding Yuqin to get back in the car.

Soon, the two vehicles arrived at the committee members’ living area, stopping in front of Building 8.

After getting out, Wang Tao called over a few guards to help him move things.

Wang Tao was an approachable person, but he saw no reason to spurn the power at his disposal.

The guards were shocked and envious when they saw the fresh green chives on the pickup truck; it was just like Commissioner Wang to manage to find such good stuff on an outing! They, the ordinary folk, eating gruel every day, had almost forgotten what vegetables tasted like…

While the guards were busy moving things, Ding Yuqin approached Wang Tao and asked softly with curiosity:

“Wang Tao, what is your status at the base? Why do they all respect you so much? I see they all address you as Commissioner Wang. What is a commissioner?”

“It’s nothing much, just one of the eight highest-ranking people in the entire base.”

Wang Tao replied with a somewhat boastful smile.

“Wow!” exclaimed Ding Yuqin, both surprised and then finding it reasonable. After all, she knew how powerful Wang Tao was. Plus, Wang Tao was an Ability User, so it was not surprising for him to be one of the leaders of a Survivor Base.

Once everything had been moved into the house, Wang Tao said to Ding Yuqin:

“See how you can arrange these things later; I’m heading to the main building.”

“Okay!”

Ding Yuqin happily began planning their small home while Wang Tao drove to the main building.

In a large conference room on the second floor, Wang Tao joined Wei Zhenguo and others, including Han Rui and some officials in key positions.

Everyone’s expression was rather somber, with a mix of sadness and anger. Especially Han Rui—her eyes were swollen, as if she had cried a long time.

“WangTao, you’ve returned!”

Wei Zhenguo, sitting in a wheelchair, waved him over. Beside him was a seat reserved for Wang Tao.

On his other side sat a young man in a military uniform, whom Wang Tao didn’t recognize. He was certainly one of the committee members, Lu Gang.

His HP bar read! 535/535], no Hidden Attributes, no mana bar, and no impurities.

“This is Lu Gang, who just returned this morning.”

“This is Wang Tao, the new member of our base’s committee.”

Wei Zhenguo introduced Wang Tao and Lu Gang to each other.

“Hello!”

The two shook hands, and Wang Tao could clearly feel the calluses on Lu Gang’s hands—marked by a life fed with bullets.

Lu Gang, on the other hand, gave Wang Tao’s physique an extra glance, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

“Is there confirmed news about Commissioner Song Jinghong’s situation?” Wang Tao asked Wei Zhenguo.

“There is…”

Wei Zhenguo looked toward Lu Gang, who spoke with a sad tone:

“I sawOld Song’s body yesterday…”

“Hmm? A body?”

Wang Tao frowned.

In this post-apocalyptic world, the dead typically turned into zombies or became zombie fodder. Encountering a mere body… was rather rare.

“Yes, a body. Old Song was dismembered; I could only find his head and one arm…”

Lu Gang clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with fury.

“What!”

Wang Tao was shocked and his face also showed anger.

Zombies wouldn’t dismember victims; this was definitely the work of a survivor!

“His head was hanging from a telephone pole, surrounded by zombies, so I couldn’t take it with me. I found his hand on a rooftop…”

“Wuuu…”

Han Rui covered her mouth, weeping.

Song Jinghong had been more than just her senior leader—he was her teacher, her family. With her parents already dead, her closest teacher had also died, and not just any death but a brutal one… Even the usually strong-willed her couldn’t hold back her tears.

Bang!

Xiang Hongbin slammed his hand on the table, his gaze fierce.

“Damn it, if I find out who did this, I’ll flay them alive!”

The others also had faces full of anger.

If it had been an attack by zombies, it would have been a matter of being outmatched and they could only take out their anger on zombies. But an attack by survivors? That was utterly unacceptable!
