Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Liang Family People
One of the slightly smaller team members couldnât hold back his tears.
Today too many had been sacrificed, his good friend and teammate, as well as some other comrades, had all perished, even those two young people just nowâŠ
âExploded, exploded?â
At this moment, Jiuqing also came to her senses. Hearing the rumbling noise outside, she didnât know whether to feel happy or sad.
Those two people were too greatâŠ
âYou, come with me to check it outâ
Jiuqing stood up, although she still felt a bit dizzy, she quickly steadied herself.
âYes!â
She wondered if those damned zombies had been wiped out, the bomb had been very powerful, and it seemed probable that Su Jin and her husband had met a grim fate.
âŠ
Several people walked toward the direction of the bus station where the explosion had occurred; the aftermath had not yet dispersed. The dust and smoke in the air made Jiuqing and the team members behind her cough uncontrollably.
âTeam leader, whatâs that!â
A team member behind exclaimed in surprise.
In the midst of the swirling smoke, two figures hand in hand were swaying. By the looks of them, could it be⊠Su Jin and her group!
As the figures gradually became clear, Jiuqing finally saw that it was indeed Su Jin and Lu Hao, they were unharmed!
Overjoyed, Jiuqing ran forward, her team members closely following her.
âOh my god!â
A team member looked in amazement at the two unscathed people ahead. They had set off the bomb and still managed to escape!
âThank goodness, youâre alrightâ
Jiuqing couldnât help herself, she hugged Su Jin and started crying. No matter how tough she usually was, at this moment she couldnât hide her overwhelming emotions. She had seen too much death today, and the safe return of Su Jin and Lu Hao had lifted her heart from the sea of despair once again.
âWeâre fine, we just found a safe shelter in time and were not affected by the blast,â Su Jin said, comforting and explaining. It was fortunate that people had been dispersed earlier, otherwise, she really didnât know what else could have been done, considering the bombâs immense power.
She and Lu Hao had jumped to a blind spot next to the vehicle right after successfully detonating the bomb and then hid in the space. They didnât dare to come out until they felt the explosion outside had almost subsided. Fortunately, they had come out in time, just when they ran into Jiuqing and her team.
Jiuqing and the others didnât question further, they merely thought that not only were the two very capable, but they were also lucky.
âExcuse me, are all those zombies dead?â one of the team members asked.
âNot a single one left,â
Lu Hao answered.
!!!
Thatâs wonderful!
Several team members suddenly sat down on the ground, relieved that their comrades had not died in vain!
âSu Jin, Lu Hao, I canât thank you enough,â
Liang Jiuqing had already wiped away her tears. As a team leader, she only allowed herself a moment of emotional loss and couldnât cry anymore, but she truly didnât know how else to thank the two of them.
âThis is what we should have done. Besides, that bomb was indeed powerful,â Su Jin exclaimed, impressed by the plan Liang Jiuqing and her team had come up with to gather the zombies and eliminate them en masse. However, it was incredibly riskyâjust one mutated zombie could have led to their total annihilation.
Liang Jiuqing and the others also felt fortunate to have encountered Su Jin and Lu Hao today, otherwise it was uncertain whether they could have escaped on their own.
At that moment, a military truck appeared in the distance. It seemed that someone had come to meet them.
Su Jin and Lu Hao exchanged glances, ready to say goodbye to Liang Jiuqing, but Liang Jiuqing wouldnât let them go, as she had noticed among the newly arrived group was her own father. Last time, Liang Wei had wanted to meet Su Jin and the others but hadnât had the chance. This time, she definitely needed to introduce them, especially since Su Jin and Lu Hao had just played such a major role in their recent successâthere was no way she could let them leave so easily.
Su Jin also felt rather helpless; they really just wanted to slip away quietly, and who knew if Local Tyrant Gold was getting anxious waiting.
âDad! How did you get here?â
Although Liang Jiuqing was overjoyed, she hadnât expected Liang Wei to come personally.
Seeing his daughter safe and sound, Liang Wei finally felt relief. Previously, another team heading back to the refuge reported seeing the wreckage of Liang Jiuqingâs vehicle, so he immediately reported this and couldnât sit still any longer, quickly driving over with a few people.
This daughter of his just couldnât give him a momentâs peace; back at home, only his son could keep her in check. Now he didnât even know how things were going on his sonâs end, hoping they could return soon.
âDad, these two are Su Jin and Lu Hao, the ones I told you about before. It was them who helped us complete the mission,â said Liang Jiuqing.
Liang Jiuqing then recounted the events that had just occurred, including the aircraft crash, to Liang Wei.
Liang Wei and his entourage were amazed to hear this. The story sounded simple, but they knew only too well how perilous it had been. Not only had they successfully detonated the bomb, but they had also emerged completely unharmedâjust how formidable were these two individuals?!
âSu Jin, Lu Hao, this is my dad, Liang Wei,â Liang Jiuqing introduced.
Liang Wei?!
Could it really be Liang Wei?
Su Jin lowered her eyes to hide the shock in her heart. She hadnât expected that Liang Jiuqingâs father would be Liang Wei.
Before the Apocalypse, Liang Wei was the mayor of S city and the father of the future leader of the S city safe zone!
She should have realized earlierâLiang Jiuqing, Liang Jiuhui, it was so obvious that they were family.
In her past life, she had also heard that the leader of the base, Liang Jiuhuiâs family, had all been killed by zombies, and his father and sister had died in a zombie tide during a mission. At the base, there was a monument for soldiers, engraved with the names of martyrs who had fought against the zombies; atop that list was the name Liang Wei, possibly due to Liang Jiuhuiâs influence.
But she had also heard that Liang Wei, as the newly appointed mayor of S city, had acted decisively in the early stages of the Apocalypse to stop the widespread outbreak of zombies and had established a safe refuge for the public, earning him a great deal of respect in S city. Even after his death, no one could forget his initial contributions.
And now Liang Wei stood before her; how could she not be shocked!
âXiao Jin?â Lu Hao squeezed Su Jinâs hand, observing her expression. Could it be that she also knew this man?
Lu Hao squinted at Liang Wei, noticing the air of authority subtly radiating from him despite his kind demeanor, and the several military-clad individuals behind him. Lu Hao guessed this man must be a high-ranking official.
While Lu Hao was observing Liang Wei, Liang Wei was also assessing them, especially Lu Hao, who didnât show the slightest hint of fear or discomfort in his gaze. Liang Wei, who had navigated political struggles for years, rarely encountered such a promising young person.
And that girl by his sideâwhy did she look so shocked? Did they know each other?
Su Jin realized she had made her feelings too obvious, so she quickly explained, âSo you are Liang Wei, Mayor Liang. Iâve heard so much about you,â
So thatâs it; it seems this girl must have known him from the news before the Apocalypse. Liang Wei sighed with a wry smile, âNow, where are there still titles like Mayor? I am just an old father here. Thank you both for saving our Jiuqing.â
