Yang Chao was the only one who sat there with perfect composure, as if he had nothing to do with all this . It also seemed like he had already made some decisions, so he no longer cared what other people thought .
Zou Shihui was neither handsome nor ugly . He wouldn't impress one at first sight, but after talking a few more glances at him, one would find that he was rather pleasant to look at, and had a lingering charm .
He also had a calm and settled vibe which belonged to mature men . His eyes contained a composed and peaceful look, yet seemed to be able to see through many things .
He glanced at Yang Chao, then at Wu Chengyue .
"We have all received the news about what happened last night . Now, my dear Chiefs, do you have something to say?" As the two powerful ones remained silent, Zou Shihui had no choice but to start a peaceful conversation .
Wu Chengyue responded with a faint smile, "Zou, you do the talking . You have all the files . "

Zou Shihui looked at him, then took a glance at the others in the conference hall, especially casting a glance at Yang Chao . As the latter showed no change of expression, he nodded, picked up the files on the desk, and started talking, "Alright! First of all, the death of Deputy Chief Piao Gecang… According to the information that we have collected, Piao Gecang was killed in revenge . The murderer is a zombie . Three days ago, Piao Gecang ordered his subordinates to kidnap a woman in our base . He raped and abused the victim, also encouraging his subordinates to gangrape her . The victim was a reserve Deputy Chief, Chen Yuting's legal wife . Her name was Shen Yujen . When Chief Wu and his subordinates found Shen Yujen, she had fallen into unconsciousness, and been injected with zombie blood . By that time, she was already heavily infected . That, was the reason behind the revenge . "
Zou Shihui paused for a moment, then turned over the page and continued, "The second thing… Last night at about nine o'clock, Piao Gecang was attacked by a zombie and infected by the virus . Afterward, he broke into a laboratory and started a quarrel with the leader of the second virus study group, Liang Dashu . After that, an explosion happened . For the record, Piao Gecang was killed by someone else before the explosion, and Liang Dashu was killed by the explosion . According to his assistant, Moli, who was on the scene, a stranger at level-six or seven showed up at that time and attempted to kill them . For that reason, Liang Dashu detonated the grenade .
After saying that, he looked at Wu Chengyue and said, "Chief Wu, please bring them in . "
Wu Chengyue nodded, then glanced at Xiao Licheng who was behind him . The latter immediately stood up and walked out of the conference hall .
The others quietly waited . Two minutes later, Xiao Licheng came back in with a group of people . Some of those people were dragged in, as each of them had lost a foot .
Those were the group of criminals who were caught when Wu Chengyue and Lin Qiao had found Shen Yujen yesterday morning .

Xiao Licheng sat back into his seat, then said with a serious look, "These are the criminals who were assaulting Shen Yujen when we found her . They have confessed that they did what they did under Piao Gecang's orders . When we arrived there, they had already injected the zombie virus into the victim's body . Report completed . "
Wu Chengyue nodded at him as he finished talking .
After Xiao Licheng finished his report, the others in the conference hall all stared at the group of criminals who were kneeling before their tables with sharp eyes .
Zou Shihui blandly looked at them and asked, "Is that true? Do you have anything to say?"
Those criminals had nothing to say . They all lowered their heads and stayed silent, seeming to be despairing . They probably knew that no matter what they said, the way it was going to end for them wouldn't change .

Zou Shihui waited for a short while . As they didn't say a word, he continued, "This matter has been verified . The information given by Mr . Xiao has been confirmed to be true . The following six people, including Piao Gecang, Lin, Huang, and the other four, have violated the female protection regulations of our base, and injected the zombie virus into the victim, causing death to the victim, which is egregious . Now, according to the law of our base, the six of you will be sentenced to death . Execution: Firing squad . Time: Twelve noon today . "
"Any objections?" After reading the verdict, he glanced at the others and asked . The people stayed silent to show their agreement .
Zou Shihui continued, "Good, the verdict is now effective . Take them out . "
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers who stood behind the group of criminals quickly stepped up and dragged out those rapists who were kneeling limply on the ground .
Wu Chengyue was still wearing a faint smile, with his lip corners slightly turned up . That was his symbolic expression, so no one could tell what he was thinking at this moment .
Unlike him, Yang Chao's face darkened a little . He couldn't think of a word to say now . He was planning to claim that the zombie which killed Piao Gecang was brought into this base by Hades Base base people, and then make Wu Chengyue take the blame . However, not only did Wu Chengyue have witnesses, but he had also caught those rapists . Also, he strictly blocked the passages of information and didn't let Yang Chao hear anything about that .
Yang Chao was completely unprepared!
What Piao Gecang did had nothing to do with him, but Piao Gecang was his subordinate . He had failed to manage his subordinates properly, so now, he couldn't say anything .
But still, he asked one question, "I want to ask a question . Shen Yujen was found by Chief Wu at last, but why did she turn into a zombie and attack Piao Gecang after that?"
Wu Chengyue put both elbows on the desk, his fingers crossed under his chin . He blandly glanced at Yang Chao, then responded with that smile, "Because we decided to respect the will of Chen Yuting, the victim's husband . The remains of the victims have been handed to him . Is there a problem?"
"Of course, there is!" said Yang Chao coldly, "If you cremated Shen Yujen's body, she wouldn't become a zombie and attack Piao Gecang in the base . Now, we don't even know where she has been hiding . How many more people might she attack if this situation continues? Who will take responsibility for that?"
Wu Chengyue grinned and said, "Who will take the responsibility? I'm going to give you an answer . Without a question, Piao Gecang will, because this was his fault . Also, the security of the base if a part of your duty . You failed to locate the target, and you're asking who's gonna take the responsibility? Yesterday at noontime, Chen Yuting had taken Shen Yujen's body out of the base . She had nothing to do with the base anymore, as she was outside . The potential safety hazard had been removed . As for why she became a zombie that night and made her way in, isn't that your problem? After all, the security system of the entire base is under your administration . "
Wu Chengyue's words had one simple meaning—'It's your fault, all your fault . No matter how you try to explain, this is your fault! Since it's your fault, what does it have to do with me?'
"You…" Hearing that, Yang Chao choked on the words, and his face even turned bluish .
