"Captain Jiang, let's sit down," said Luo Junjiang.
When they came to the seat, Luo Junjiang lowered his voice and asked, "How about you? Very shocked, right? When I first saw Boss Xiang, I was totally shocked. I originally thought she was just a woman…"
Then Luo Junjiang shook his head and explained, "Before doomsday, she was a famous new celebrity in the entertainment world. She has also studied abroad. It was said that she had a scary background, so many men that wanted to conquer her were discouraged. Logically speaking, she should be eligible to gain access to a safety area before the virus' outbreak, she was unlucky. At that time, she was in the northern area of Jiangsu. Thus, there was nothing she could do. However, she was lucky enough, because she became a powerful paranormal," Luo Junjiang explained.
What Luo Junjiang said was indeed the truth. Xiang Xuehai was not only beautiful but also had enough power. As a result, many men were eager to get their hands on her.
Jiang Liushi looked at Xiang Xuehai and nodded. He thought that Xiang Xuehai was indeed not an ordinary person. If she were weak, she would have already been killed.
Jiang Liushi just wanted to do business with her, and he wasn't interested in her. Since they reached the northern area of Jiangsu, he could sense that Ran Xiyu was absent-minded. She was obviously worried about her sister.
In Jiang Liushi's heart, Ran Xiyu had already become a part of his family after interacting and going through so many things for such long time. He wanted to help her in any way possible.
"We have three guns, two thousand rounds of ammunition, and a map of the neighborhood, dear Boss Xiang," said a fat leader. It was hard looking at him and his fur coat. When he stopped speaking, he beckoned to the people behind him, and then several young subordinates immediately brought a few full sacks over. Blood was dripping from the sacks, and at the same time, the smell of mutant meat spread in the air.
Xiang Xuehai was looked lazily and gestured with her slender fingers, and a girl walked from the side to check those sacks. After counting everything, she said, "You can go to the back and complete the transaction. Next one."
After a while, Jiang Liushi figured out Boss Xiang Xuehai's management model. He guessed that she enforced to the whole area that was under her control. The teams under her would gather information and resources for her to sell them. In other words, she managed and controlled every transaction in the county.
At that moment, the man who was playing with his slave, shouted, "Next one? How about us? We have several guns, don't you want them?" His voice was loud, so almost everyone in the hall heard him.
Xiang Xuehai turned to look at him and said, "Duan Dalong, I know what you want to do with me. But here is my answer, It-is-impossible."
Hearing those words, Duan Dalong frowned. "Boss Xiang, why do you want to reject our offer? Don't you know that our Brother wants to cooperate with you because he's looking up to you?" He said coldly and angrily. They had arrived and waited for several hours, but they were rejected directly.
"If you want to live longer, you have to cooperate with us. Although you own the small town, you can't fight against a tide of zombies. You should reconsider," Duan Dalong said again.
Hearing his words, almost all the paranormals in the hall felt annoyed. He was too arrogant. However, nobody dared to say anything, after all, Duan Dalong led a large team with about 30 people.
"So your Brother cares about my well-being?" Xiang Xuehai asked with a smile. She indeed deserved the title 'superstar' before doomsday. Even Jiang Liushi found her special after exchanging a few words. Everyone could feel the killing intent behind her smile.
However, Duan Dalong was stupid. He couldn't sense her murderous intent. And then said, "Boss Xiang, it'd good that you understand our Brother's intentions. Besides, our Brother was a huge fan of yours before doomsday. It's hard to support the whole county, so you'd better follow…"
"Stop! You can leave! Leave immediately!" Xiang Xuehai interrupted him and said coldly.
"You played me?"Duan Dalong stared at her fiercely. He then pushed the girl in his embrace and stood up. That girl screamed and then hurriedly got up and stood behind Duan Dalong.
Duan Dalong was about two meters high because of mutation. He was just like a bear, and he gave off an overbearing pressure.
Xiang Xuehai was still looking at him coldly with one hand pressing at the couch, "What do you want to do? Fight with me?"
Duan Dalong was annoyed, and his breathing resembled that of a bison's/
Jiang Liushi activated his brain domain instantly. Once a fight broke out, he wanted to leave with his members. He didn't want to get involved.
However, Duan Dalong didn't do anything else other than staring at Xiang Xuehai. Then, he said, "Xiang Xuehai, don't be so happy. Sooner or later, you will come to ask us for help!"
And then Duan shouted to his members, "Let's go!"
After they left, the hall's atmosphere finally eased. Many paranormals felt relieved! After all, nobody wanted to fight for no reason.
Jiang Liushi noticed that Boss Xiang was also annoyed. He estimated that this town was not really safe. He intended to leave this place at once after getting information. Although he didn't worry about fighting with each other, he didn't like getting involved in others' battles.
"Boss Xiang," Jiang Liushi said.
Xiang Xuehai's expression became calm immediately. She turned to look Jiang Liushi and asked, "Who are you?"
Luo Junjiang was scared, but he recovered. And then he hastily said, "Boss Xiang, this is a guest I led here. He would like to do some business with you. They have come from another region."
"What? Another region?" Xiang Xuehai looked at Jiang Liushi again. In her mind, only powerful people could go to other regions after doomsday. As a result, she estimated that Shi Ying Squad was a powerful team. She also wanted to know the situation in other regions.
People trapped in this small town, including Xiang Xuehai, all wanted to know the situation outside.
"What kind of business do you want to do with me?" Xiang Xuehai asked directly.
"Xiyu." Jiang Liushi turned to look at Ran Xiyu.
Ran Xiyu took out a wallet. Even Jiang Liushi didn't know she had such a wallet. However, it only held a photo inside it. "I would like to ask about a girl from this region. She is called Ran Yunsha. She is 19 years old. On the left side of her neck, there is a mole." Ran Xiyu showed the photo to Jiang Liushi.
It was also the first time that Jiang Liushi heard the name of Ran Xiyu's sister. She looked like her sister but seemed more confident. She also had a pair of grey eyes, which made her look exceptional.
Xiang Xuehai walked to them and held the photo looking carefully, at the same time, her faint fragrance hit Jiang Liushi's nose.
"Got it. I will instruct the teams under me to inquire about her. But no matter what we find, as long as we get you the info, you'll have to pay the fee," Xiang Xuehai said.
"Of course," Jiang Liushi answered.
"500 kg of mutant meat," Xiang Xuehai said. "It's a reasonable price. Feel free to ask others."
"No problem, I can give another ton of mutant meat for anyone who can give us useful information," Jiang Liushi said. The condition was indeed a wonderful one.
"Please use that ton from my share," Ran Xiyu said.
"No, you don't need to worry about it," Jiang Liushi refused directly.
"Well, Sister Xiyu, don't be so polite…" Jiang Zhuying also said. Ran Xiyu just nodded.
Luo Junjiang was totally shocked by their conversation. One ton of mutant meat! It was amazing! How much mutant meat did they really have? However, Luo Junjiang felt happy because his choice was a wise one.
"Okay! I want to copy that photo," Xiang Xuehai said.
After doomsday, it was not difficult to copy something. All they needed was diesel to generate electricity. Apparently, Xiang Xuehai had some stored.
Jiang Liushi thought that Xiang Xuehai was kind, at least she wouldn't backstab them. Thinking of diesel, Jiang Liushi remembered that he would need a large amount of it to activate the MCV's third form. The military was non-existent in that place so some gas station may be still full of diesel. Jiang Liushi was quite interested in this area.
The girl beside Xiang Xuehai finished copying the photo very soon and then Ran Xiyu put that photo back to her wallet carefully. It was the only important thing in this world for her.
"We will try our best to help you, but if we encounter something unexpected, we'll have to stop investigating," Xiang Xuehai said.
It was obvious that Xiang Xuehai was worried about something, but she didn't want to disclose any information.
"You can stay here in the county. Paranormals can stay for free." She also wanted to ask Jiang Liushi and the others about the situation outside, especially for the safety areas.
As for Jiang Liushi, he knew clearly what the woman was worried about. However, it was none of his business.
He wanted to get to know some people from this area, so they stayed and chatted for a while. Later, they bid farewell to Xiang Xuehai and walked out of the hall.
"Captain Jiang, please trust me. We will help you to find information too," Luo Junjiang said.
"Drop your act! Since you're seeking for death, just wait!" Jiang Liushi said suddenly, because Ying just informed him, through the Starseed, that she, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were attacked by a group of people. Amongst them was the paranormal with the iron bar from Luo Junjiang's team. However, Luo Junjiang didn't know anything about this.
At that moment, in the corner of the parking lot, Ying was holding her weapon, standing beside Zhang Hai and Sun Kun. Sun Kun's arm was bleeding.
If Ying hadn't reacted fast, Sun Kun would already be dead.
Just then, several cars came and surrounded them.
They were about 40 armed people in total. They were staring at Ying and other two guys fiercely.
