Chapter 251 Taking Chai Jin Away
Chapter 251 Taking Chai Jin Away
However, this opportunity is not easy to come by.
Firstly, the Baijishan base is heavily guarded, and many people see Zhang Wan every day. Her sudden disappearance without any reason must mean that someone is causing trouble for the military.
Secondly, ever since Zhang Wan discovered that her crystal core had been stolen, she has been holed up in the big tent and rarely comes out. Even when she does go out occasionally, she is with her "relatives and friends" and rarely leaves herself alone.
The only time he went out alone was to visit Chai Jin at their usual spot.
Unfortunately, after Zhou Yang and his group discovered that Zhang Wan had tampered with Chai Jin, they tried every means to take Chai Jin outside the base to fight zombies, giving him no chance to think about Zhang Wan.
Therefore, Zhang Wan naturally did not get to see Chai Jin arrive as promised.
She then inquired with the patrol team members and learned that after the Qianlong Squad went on a mission across provinces, they had no choice but to turn their attention to Chen Ming.
However, Chen Ming, who was supposed to lead the patrol team to patrol the base, was not seen for several days in a row. Zhang Wan couldn't help but inquire and learned that he had been promoted and transferred by his superiors.
Zhang Wan was furious that she couldn't find either of the two main targets and that the crystal core had been stolen.
Zhou Yang and the others had no time to care about Zhang Wan's anger; they were currently busy fighting zombies in the neighboring Jiangsu province.
Before they left, they calculated the date when Chai Jin would meet Zhang Wan again. They took Chai Jin out to fight zombies, and deliberately chose a place farthest from the base. They also planned not to go back for the next three days, forcing Chai Jin to "quit" Zhang Wan.
At first, when Chai Jin heard that he was going to go to the base, he refused outright. It was only after Zhou Yang and the others said they wanted to test his newly upgraded level 5 power evolution and lied to him that he would be back on the same day that he finally agreed.
Once they left the base, the group boarded the Pea and sped north.
Because of the excessive speed, everyone had to bend over to minimize resistance, so Chai Jin didn't notice anything wrong, he just felt that the walking speed was unusually long today.
When the peas stopped again, the group had already arrived at a place several hundred kilometers away from the Baijishan base.
At this point, Chai Jin still didn't realize that something was wrong.
The group fought zombies all day long, and Chai Jin even exhausted all his energy to test his current level 5 power evolution ability.
The result was quite good. After leveling up to level 5, Chai Jin's strength was now completely different from before. He no longer needed to use explosives to demolish buildings; he could just break them with his bare hands.
During his zombie-fighting adventure, he accidentally demolished several buildings.
"Chai Jin, you'd better be careful when you find a wife in the future, lest you accidentally break her hand."
After witnessing Chai Jin demolish a building with his bare hands, Lu Yanwen joked.
Chai Jin chuckled, scratching his head, "No way! I'm doing this so it'll be easier to fight zombies. It'll be so much easier to tear down the building and let the zombies on the street surround and kill it. But I wouldn't want to do that to my future wife!"
She seemed to be thinking of something, and a blush crept onto her face.
Zhou Yang and the others could tell at a glance that he was probably thinking of Zhang Wan, so they quickly changed the subject and continued to deal with the zombies.
By evening, the group had practically emptied the small town.
The streets, which were once infested with zombies, are now reduced to piles of ashes.
After defeating the zombies, the group was hungry. After wandering around the small town for a while, they found a relatively clean bank on the second floor and started cooking.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content and resting, Zhou Yang began to take out tents from his spatial storage, clearly intending to set up camp.
Chai Jin, who was waiting for everyone to finish resting before going back, realized something was wrong. Seeing his brothers picking up tents and starting to set them up, he couldn't sit still any longer.
"Weren't we supposed to be going back today? Why are you setting up tents?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang and the others didn't even look up, continuing what they were doing. It was Xu Zhiyi who took a moment to answer him.
"Oh, while you were busy dismantling the building, we discussed it and decided not to rush back. With you dismantling the building and building the fence, it will be much more convenient to fight the zombies. So we plan to fight for a couple more days."
Chai Jin became even more anxious upon hearing this: "But you said you'd be going back today! We didn't tell my parents when we left that we might not be going back today, did we? Won't they be worried if we don't go back?"
"Yes, they will. But this isn't the first time, they know what they're doing, don't worry."
After Shen Zechuan finished speaking, he waved his hand at Chai Jin, not caring at all.
Actually, they had already told Chai Jin and Yu Jing before they left that they would be going back in two or three days, but of course they couldn't tell Chai Jin about this.
"But……"
Chai Jin was still unwilling to give up and wanted to refute again, but he was interrupted by Xu Zhiyi after only uttering two words.
"Stop with the 'buts'! Do you have a wife waiting for you at home? Look at Yan Fei, he didn't even bring Xingye out and he's not in a hurry. What's the rush for you, a bachelor?!"
"I...I...no...no...I can't stay here today..." Chai Jin paced anxiously, and finally stomped his foot and started to walk outside, shouting, "I have to go back! I want to go back! I must go back!"
Seeing that Chai Jin was determined to walk back as if possessed, Yan Fei and Shen Zechuan quickly stopped him.
"What are you in such a hurry to go back for?! Besides, we're hundreds of kilometers away from the base now, can you walk back by yourself?!"
"No! I want to go back! I want to go back!"
Chai Jin struggled desperately, but unfortunately, he had used up all his energy by the end of the day and was unable to break free from Shen Zechuan and Yan Fei.
Seeing that Chai Jin wouldn't be sober for a while, Zhou Yang immediately brought out a solid wood chair:
"Forget it, he's gone mad. Let's tie him up and let him calm down on his own."
Shen Zechuan and Yan Fei had no objections, so they carried Chai Jin over and tied him up.
"is this okay?"
"It's not a big problem, much better than drug withdrawal symptoms. It's just psychological; he'll get through it. If it really gets too much, just knock him out."
"Alright. Let's get back to what we're doing and come see him later."
Seeing Chai Jin still trying to break free, Shen Zechuan and the others discussed it briefly and then turned around to busy themselves with the tents that were not yet set up.
Zhou Yang was left alone in the same spot, disheveled and without wind.
Chai Jin is truly blessed to have you as his brothers!
